I have been given a new requirement for a database that I have been using
for a long time. I have a Name field that needs to show as FirstName and
LastName for one report. I am having a hard time figuring out how to modify
the query so that it only calls up the first or last names. I can see how to
select a certain character length, but until we can convince everyone to
have names of the same length, I can't see that helping. The names are all
stored with first name, a space, then last name.
