| I have a column called "DataSource"Here are 3 examples of values from this column from 3 separate rows:img244.ad.tim.comimg244.ad.tim.com/testimg244.ad.tim.com/nameIf I do a select DISTINCT DataSource from tablename, obviously it will show all results above...what I need is one result specifying the servername portion and not the other data (the trailing slash and everything beyond it).Any ideas?ThanksI would need this to come back:img244.ad.tim.com |
