right now we have a prefix like MU- or C20- and then our asset number.
i really want to blow those out of there. I was thinking of importing the table into access, remove the prefix and then load the table back into the database.
my question is, will this mess up any linkage from other tables? it looks to me that this wont work, so does anyone else have any other suggestions in how i can remove the prefix.

If you follow your process you will corrupt database. You must write a report or a codeunit to process that.
Triggers must run to apply your renaming in other tables.0 -

im not really sure how to do that.......to write a code unit that will populate ALL fields and tables- So it Goes.0
