returning error values. But a properly used Nz() function can turn an error message into an understandable and expected value.

For instance, a calculated control in a form or report has the remove #error from access query potential to return #Error if a value is missing. That's going to leave your users scratching their heads and reaching for the phone to ask what's up. You can avoid their confusion (and your interruption) by using the Nz() function to force a value — usually 0.

I have achieved this by first finding the starting position of "99" using Instr, then I use this result with Mid to extract the required string length. The problem I have is when the result of Instr is "0" the Mid function will output #Error. I am trying to find a way to replace any instance of #Error with NULL Sample Data: TotalRef 111111 - 99222222 test line number 1 222222 - 94444444 test line number 2 333333 - test line number 3 99888888 444444 - test line number 4 95555555 Query: SELECT A.TotalRef, Mid ([A].[TotalRef], Pos,8) AS Acc, InStr(9,[A].[TotalRef],"99")AS Pos FROM A; Actual result: TotalRef | Acc | Pos 111111 - 99222222 test line number 1 | 99222222 | 10 222222 - 94444444 test line number 2 | #Error | 0 333333 - test line number 3 99888888 | 99888888 | 29 444444 - test line number 4 95555555 | #Error | 0 Required result: TotalRef | Acc | Pos 111111 - 99222222 test line number 1 | 99222222 | 10 222222 - 94444444 test line number 2 | NULL | 0 333333 - test line number 3 99888888 | 99888888 | 29 444444 - test line number 4 95555555 | NULL | 0 I have tried using IIF with no luck and have been unable to find a solution on here or with google.
