Hi all,

I have a Customer of a similar value - 'Crazy Customer 307300 A90000', but I'd like to only show/return :

'Crazy Customer'..... So basically anything that is in my other Customer Table, with no numbers/characters following.

Any ideas on how I could achieve this.?

Thanks

use mid funtion.

mid( Date,3,2 ) where Date = 970714 returns 07.

Hi,

Use below script.

Load purgechar(Field_Name,'1234567890') as New_Field from xyz.

This script will remove the numbers from your field value.

If you need anything else to be purge then you can include that also into the script.

Hope this helps you.
