How to Remove Text From the Field in an Access Query

An Access query is a cross reference of information from the tables within your database. For example, you can run a "Find Unmatched Query Wizard" in Access to compare two tables and report all records from one table that don't match the other. If there's a field in your query containing data you don't need, you can remove the text with a few simple steps.
