How to amend data to an existing DB fleld

Recommended Posts

I have ASP pages working with a Microsoft Access DB and I am trying to use my SQL to amend data in a field.  I use the Update function to replace data in a field but I can't find a function that will add new data to the existing data in a field.  Is there a way to do this?

Thank you in advance.

Thank you for replying but this UPDATE function, in my experience as well the examples on the page you referenced will overwrite (replace) the existing data.  I want to keep data that already exists in the field and be able to add new data to it.  Maybe this is something SQL does not allow.

Fox hit the nail on the head.  I would respectfully add,  focus on the WHERE keyword.
