I have two columns of data that I need to extrapolate into another
column. Here are the columns and examples: [LastName] Smithers [FirstName] John [Password] sre84nho The password consists of: (the last 3 letters of the LastName, in reverse)+ (the number of letters in the LastName)+ (the number of letters in the FirstName)+ (the last 3 letters of the FirstName, in reverse) LastName and FirstName are known. I thought I could use normal functions (RIGHT and LEN) but it's not coming together like I thought. Is there a way to offset RIGHT or LEFT so that they only display 1 character, X characters from the RIGHT or LEFT? And, is there a way to have RIGHT display in reverse? Any thoughts? Am I going about this all wrong? And yes, I realize I'm not exactly promoting strong password security here. This is for an offline project. :) Also, I'm not worried about people with names of 10 characters or longer. Thanks in advance |
