MySQL do it for you:) Quoted from the online documentation is: " MySQL automatically converts numbers to strings as necessary, and vice-versa:
mysql> SELECT 1+"1"; -> 2 mysql> SELECT CONCAT(2,' test'); -> '2 test' If you want to convert a number to a string explicitly, pass it as the argument to CONCAT(). " See: http://mysql.com/doc/S/t/String_functions.html Gurhan -----Original Message----- From: Marcel [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, May 16, 2002 3:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: STRING TO NUMBER Hi, In Oracle i use TO_NUMBER to convert a String to a Number what Function Do i have to use in Mysql ?? thank´s Marcel. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
