theo leijen writes "I've made a update statement which has to fill a variable. But when the result is larger than the size of the field, i get an error message.
How can i let SQL truncate the result to 50 characters?
This is the statement:
UPDATE Employees
set BdgNaam = BadgeNumber | | '' - '' | | Naam | | '', '' | | VoorNaam | | '' '' | | Tussenvoegsel
Thank you." |
