Hi,

is there any nice way to squeeze the blanks out of a series of characters?

Like, taking my address 2468 MACLAREN CIRCLE and getting 2468MACLARENCIRCLE output

so that the query

select addr_line1
from cust_acct_v
where (cust_id, acct_num)
in (select cust_id, acct_num
    from cust_acct_line_v
    where mtn='6785916417'
      and mtn_status_ind='A'
    group by 1,2)

will give 2468MACLARENCIRCLE as an answer?

I tried using CASE Statement, but is there any other efficient way (like stored Procedures) to do this? Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Arun K Ballari,
