Hi all,
I am trying to remove all blank chars in middle of the string "text1
text2 text3 text3 text4"
with following stmt:
VALUES(translat e('text1 text2 text3 text3 text4' , ''
,' ' ))
But it seems that the resulting string same with the input string.
1
-------------------------------------
text1 text2 text3 text3 text4
1 record(s) selected.
Do you have any idea what is going on here?
FYI:
VALUES(translat e('text1 text2 text3 text3 text4' , '*'
,' ' )) produces the
right output
1
-------------------------------------
text1**text2*** text3******text 3*text4
1 record(s) selected.

Hello.
Try this:
--
VALUES(replace( 'text1 text2 text3 text3 text4' , ' ' ,''
))

Sincerely,
Mark B. I am trying to remove all blank chars in middle of the string "text1
text2 text3 text3 text4"
with following stmt:
VALUES(translat e('text1 text2 text3 text3 text4' , ''
,' ' ))
Mehmet,
If trimming of white spaces is what is really intented, then replace is
the function you want to use.
Translate: Returns a transformed string expression & thus the length of
the return'd string would be same as the original.
Replace: replaces all the occurrences of expr1 in expr2 with expr3
For example:
DB2-CLP Prompt>db2 values "char(replace(' text1 text2 text3
text3 text4',' ',''),25)"
1
-------------------------
text1text2text3 text3text4
1 record(s) selected.

Thanks Mark and Peri,
I was trying to trim the intermediate space chars. It seems that
"Replace: function is getting the job done.

Is there a TSQL function like Oracle's Translate function? Where:

return '13000'?

I have a rather long unbroke string (a URL) which I would like to break
at certain points using XSL. I can't seem to get translate() to work:
translate(.,'/',,'<wbr>/</wbr>')
I don't know that the <wbr> tag is valid, but if can stick something
within the string I think I can figure out a way for it to wrap.
