All,
Quick question how do i delete a double blank space from a table called company and the field or row where the blank spaces need to be deleted is name ie company name .
There is an extra blank space in between the company names eg  My Own Company (one with double space)  My Own Company (one with single space) normal. I have run a sql to identify the 166 rows that have this problem now i need a quick way of resolving this problem ie deleteing the extra space from these rows.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks We are running Oracle 817 on Solaris 8.

I have about 166 rows affected by this double space problem,Is there a fast way of doing it or even a script to take care of this Received on Fri Jan 10 2003 - 06:42:02 CST
