Access DB Table - Split Field SQL Command

Question

I have an Access 2013 Database Table, dbo_GOV

THE GOAL

I want to take the USSenators field, which contains data like (below) and split it into

Answer 1

You cannot use Split in a query, use Mid and Instr.

Mid(USSenators,Instr(USSenators,";")+1)
Mid(USSenators,1,Instr(USSenators,";")-1)

Line 2 above returns John Smith for the first record
Line 1 above returns Sarah Levens for the first record

You will need to watch for nulls.
