[MS_AccessPros] Retain only the letters and numbers in a string

 

In the snippet of code below, CombinedInfo is a string containing upper
and lower case letters, numbers, spaces and assorted special characters
such as &, *, $, #, @, etc. I need to delete the spaces and special
characters, retaining only the letters (upper and lower case) and
numbers. What type of test can I use in the For-Next loop to do that?

   For MyCounter = 1 To Len(CombinedInfo)
      Debug.Print MyCounter & " " & Mid(CombinedInfo, MyCounter, 1)
   Next MyCounter

Thanks, Steve
