Is there way in VBscript to extract the 1st, 2nd & 3rd words from a string?
Hello everyone,
I have a field named CityStateZip. It has a value like Milwaukee, WI 53203. I need to pull the first, second and third words separately using VBscript. Is there a way to do this if you don't always know the number of characters?
Thank you in advance.

You could use the Split() function. Like this:
--------
Dim ThreePart() as string
Dim City, State, Zip as string
ThreePart = Split(CityStateZip, " ")
If UBound(ThreePart) >= 3 Then
City = ThreePart(0)
State = ThreePart(1)
Zip = ThreePart(2)
End If
--------
It should work for VBA. To use it in VBScript, remove the "As String" from the Dim statements. The syntax is a little different if you want to use it in TSQL.
