Hi,
I have some records that I need to group by a field. This is easy using
group by in the sql statement. What I happening is that I get some data
in html format that I have written a script that will extract the data I
require an dump it into a table. Everything working fine. The problem is
that when the data in entered into the table some fields enter with the
new line (\n). So when I use the group by command below is the result.
mysql> select nome_hotel from hotel group by nome_hotel limit 10;
| Abou
Nawas Djerba |
| Abou Nawas Djerba |
| Adams Beach |
| Aegean
Village |
| Aegean |
| Aegean Village |
This what I don't want since "Abou
Nawas Djerba" and "Abou Nawas Djerba" are the
same. How do I get rid of the space. I tried trim, rtrim nothing works.
Second, using the same data I get some of the hotel names in CAPS and I
need to convert it to lower and then group by. How do I get these two
done?
Thanks
Adrian
