Hi,

I want to calculate a new field I added to a table but I'm not sure how to do it. This will be a copy of another field with any non numeric characters stripped off the end and padded with spaces.

This is what I was trying to do

Update Buildings SET B_LOT_SORT=lpad(substr(lot,1,??),7)

instead of ?? I need to know the position of the last numeric character.
Any suggestions would be appreciated
