Hello

The 10th digit in a VIN number reflects the year the car was manufactured.

A 1980 B 1981 C 1982 D 1983 E 1984 F 1985 G 1986

Calculated Numeric field:

Case(

Middle( vin, 10, 1) = "A", 1980 ,

Middle( vin, 10, 1) = "B", 1981 ,

Middle( vin, 10, 1) = "C", 1983 ,

...ETC...

Middle( vin, 10, 1) = "2", 2002,

Middle( vin, 10, 1) = "3", 2003,

2004

)

This would also work:
