I need to do this and don't know where to start. Compare part of a part number in one table to another table. The part numbers look like this.
12345.123 12345.234 12345.654 02nt911dc.123 02nt911dc.054 02thq5 02thq7 The part before the dot is all I want to use to compare to the other table which will only contain the first part. It would be something like this. 12345.123 = 12345 12345.234 = 12345 12345.654 = 12345 02nt911dc.123 = 02nt911dc 02nt911dc.054 = 02nt911dc 02thq5 = 02thq5 02thq7 = 02thq7 How would I do that using just sql statements? Maybe when I have the server import I could have it create an extra column that can contain a trimmed version of the part number. A master number of sorts. Just a thought.
