This is for my own reference:

LINE2: IIf([TAG_REG]![TAG_NO] Is Null,"#B#",Mid(([TAG_REG]![TAG_NO]),InStr(([TAG_REG]![TAG_NO]),"-")+1,6))

In Access, the Mid function extracts a substring from a string (starting at any position).

The syntax for the Mid function is:

Mid ( text, start_position, number_of_characters )
