Brad writes "We're using SQL Server 7.0 SP1. We're running NT Enterprise 4.0 SP5. In Access, you can call a vba function from a query. So you can easily do something like:
Update tblOrders Set Order_No = Zero_Pad("Order_No", 3)
When I output numeric fields to a flat file for our mainframe, I have to put zeros in front of the numerics to a specified width. Right now, I run an update cursor through a temporary table and it is horribly slow. Is there a way to call stored procedures in update or insert queries? I've thought about going to a CASE When Len(Field) = 1 Then '00' + Field END type of scenario, but there has to be a better way. Any ideas?" |
