I think that ltrim(to_char(n), '0') || 'A' gives the same result as to_char(n) || 'A'
If you want to retain the leading zero but drop any trailing zeros you can do: WITH nums AS (SELECT 0.008499 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.01795 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.05390 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.1078 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.0082 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.01366667 n FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 0.00969 n FROM dual ) SELECT rtrim (to_char(n,'0.999999999'),'0') || 'A' res FROM nums; 2011/3/17 Ivan Doroshenko <zider...@gmail.com> > Using to_char formatting mask implies fixed result length. > If you want variable length, try: > > WITH nums AS > (SELECT 0.008499 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.01795 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.0539 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.1078 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.0082 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.01366667 n FROM dual UNION ALL > SELECT 0.00969 n FROM dual > ) > > SELECT ltrim(to_char(n), '0') || 'A' res FROM nums > > > On 16 мар, 21:39, teo <teomana...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi everyone, > > > > I have a table with NUMBER(38,8) column named PRICE.
