MS Access Forum / Modules / DAO / VBA / November 2006calculate next in alphabet
How do I compute the next alphabetic character through code? I have a variable (string) containing a single alpha letter (ie 'B') and i need to determine the next alphabetic value (ie "C"). How can this be done? Use Asc() to get the ascii code of the character. Add 1, and use Chr() to get the next character. Example: =Chr(Asc("B")+1)  SignatureAllen Browne - Microsoft MVP.
