    I used the same query created to show every 8th client and changed this to a deletetable query.

  • Thanks, I've amended the code and it now looks like this

    Code:
    UPDATE [testtbl] SET [testtbl].midname = IIf(InStr([firstnames]," "),Mid([firstnames],InStr([firstnames]," ")+1,Len([firstnames])-InStr([firstnames]," ")),Null), [testtbl].[firstnames] = IIf(InStr([firstnames]," "),Left([firstnames],InStr([firstnames]," ")),[firstnames]);
