Thanks but I am doing this in SQL where I have to do the match then I can
output,
Right now I am just trying to query the first table. Problem is when I do the
last name if there is no suffix then I get a blank value returned, but if there
is a suffix it works fine.
SELECT
SUBSTRING([last name],1,CHARINDEX(' ',[last name],-1)) as lastname,
LEFT([first name],1) AS firstname,city,state
FROM NEW_STUDENTS

If it's always a one word suffix then try
#Left(yourQuery.yourColumn, Len(ListLast(yourQuery.yourColumn, " ") + 1))#
Not tested but it looks right.

For a CF page I am doing I need to out put matched results. However in one
table I have last names with a suffix like "MOLINA JR" and in another table
the last name and suffix are in different columns. I need to strip out the
suffixes as well as the preceding space in the first column. Any ideas. I am
trying a few thing and it is not working.
