Hello: This seems like it should be simple, but I am having trouble figuring it out.
I have a table contact which has: name String contact_id int Lets assume the contact table has this row: name: Neil Aggarwal contact_id: 1 I want to create a view that has this data name: Neil Aggarwal ref: C1 I did this: create or replace view view_AllData as select c.name ('C'+c.contact_id) as ref, from contact c but the ref does not have the leading 'C' in the front of it. Any ideas?
