I am importing an excel file into Access 2010 and the date field(CALLDATE) comes in as text(YYYYMMDD). I would like to use an update query to update a new field \"dateofcall\"

    My date came in as text looking like this:"2013-03-23 00:00:00.0"

    I take the left 10 characters only, "2013-03-23", this makes it so Access can recognize it is a date field and then I just switch around the format.

    Format(Left([WEEKEND],10),"m/d/yyyy")

    You can use left, right and mid string functions to construct a date from the various parts of the string.

    For example:

    DateSerial(Left(MyTextDate,4),Mid(MyTextDate,5,2),Right(MytextDate,2))
    

    You can use the above in an Update query to update a date type coulmn 9field) to a the date from the text column.
