I am using this update syntax UPDATE HG2 SET ID = HG1.IDFROM HG2INNER JOIN HG1ON HG1.ADDR = HG2.SUBSTRING(ADDR,1,(LEN(ADDR) - LEN(LTRIM(RTRIM(REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE(ADDR),1,charindex(REVERSE(ADDR),' ',1))))))))Basically I am trying to trim BLVD from TABL1 and try to link to Table2.ADDR and update Table2.ID 7 to Table.ID 1. Please let me where I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance. |

| If all you're trying to do is remove 'BLVD' from the string in HG2.ADDR tryHG1.ADDR = REPLACE(HG2.ADDR,'BLVD','')JimEveryday I learn something that somebody else already knew |

Don't if it will work but change thisON HG1.ADDR = HG2.SUBSTRING(ADDR,1,(LEN(ADDR) - LEN(LTRIM(RTRIM(REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE(ADDR),1,charindex(REVERSE(ADDR),' ',1))))))))to thisON HG1.ADDR = SUBSTRING(ADDR,1,(LEN(HG2.ADDR) - LEN(LTRIM(RTRIM(REVERSE(SUBSTRING(REVERSE(HG2.ADDR),1,charindex(REVERSE(HG2.ADDR),' ',1))))))))
No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die. |
