[MS_AccessPros] Re: Nested IIF statement

 

UserState: Left(Trim(
IIf([Temp10] Like "*NEW USER'S REGION*",
  Trim(Replace([Temp10],"NEW USER'S REGION:","")),
IIf([Temp9] Like "*NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRA*",
  Replace([Temp9],"NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRA>>","")),
IIf([Temp9] Like "*NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRAC-FRA*",
  Replace([Temp9],"NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRAC-FRA>>","")

There is no length shown for LEFT and no closing bracket for it. If you want to trim only the leading spaces, delete LEFT and change TRIM to LTRIM.

The 'if not' fields of the IIf's are missing.

The REPLACE function does its own looking for text to be replaced, so you don't need IIF and LIKE.

I suggest:
LTrim(Replace([Temp10],"NEW USER'S REGION:",""))
LTrim(Replace([Temp9],"NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRA>>",""))
LTrim(Replace([Temp9],"NEW USER'S LOCATION INFO: USA-FRAC-FRA>>",""))
