Question on joining tables "Chris Pizzo" <chris@artinside.com>
Re: Question on joining tables Oliver Elphick <olly@lfix.co.uk>
Hi,
I have an interesting issue where i need to join two tables where the field that jions them is similar but not identical. Table A field data is char(12) and contains data that looks like:
BBB12345
BBB345
BBB4980
BBB3455
Table B field data is char(32) and contains data that looks like:
MMM12345
BBB345
BBB4980
MMM3455
I need a way to equate MMM12345 to BBB12345 in the join. I tried using substrings but this fails ie.
select some_data from A,B where (substr(A.field,4,12) = substr(B.field,4,12));
anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Chris Pizzo
