                                            | But I am looking at modifying an entire vertical row, but where i am stuck is.the row looks like this \\svrju01\pcss\images\Case 00004.2009\P1A8.docAnd i want to only edit the first part\\cjd-jems01\not change anything after this slash keeping that data intact in the row. Moving my pdf data from one server to another. But the software we are using, I must edit the SQL data or the clients cannot access the new data in the new server. So my new vertical row will show \\cjd-jems01\same unc path as beforeand                               \\cjd-jems01\same unc path as beforeectAny SQL wizz wanna try this, cause I am stuck. THank you for any responses. |
