Hi guys,

For example, the user input the string ABCDE-6. How to remove -6 from the string?

The result should be like this:

ABCDE

Thank you

somthing like this


Declare @var Varchar(10)

Set @var = 'ABCDE-6'

Select Replace(@var,'-6','')

Select Left(@var,CharIndex('-',@var)-1)

If Debugging is the process of removing Bugs then i Guess programming should be process of Adding them.
