I need help on a select statement. In my database i am using the employee table. I need my first column to display your full name is 99 characters. so like if the employee is john smith it would display Your Full Name Is 9 characters (including the space) Any tips on this would be appreciated |

SELECT 'Your full name is ' + CAST(LEN(FirstNameColumn) + LEN(LastNameColumn) AS VARCHAR(12)) + ' character(s).' Microsoft SQL Server MVP, MCT, MCSE, MCSA, MCP, MCITP, MCTS, MCDBA |
