I have data looks like


Name
--------
CAD disease
Diabetes disease
Asthma disease
Back & Neck disease

I would like to select only the name part excluding ‘disease’ part.

The output should look like


Name
-------
CAD 
Diabetes 
Asthma 
Back & Neck

replace(Name, ' disease', '')

Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
