Hi Michael,
| | Several people asked me how to do it. So, I finally had some time to test it and here it is: | |
It's weekend now, so more time for tests ;-))
ins switcher('one-minus');
*** Insert completed. One row added.
*** Total elapsed time was 1 second.
=1
*** Failure 2662 SUBSTR: string subscript out of bounds.
Statement# 1, Info =0
*** Total elapsed time was 1 second.
And i'd like to have an extended one for replacing more than 2 times ;-)
I think we'll have to wait for NCR to provide more string functions or for UDFs in R5.1 :-( I once tried it with a Stored Procedure and
with a cross join, but was too slow for a large dataset.
