Hi List,

I have a couple of queries to be written in SQL:

I have a table with the values as SK 05100 and LH 07244. I have to update these values with SK5100 and LH7244. That means I have to remove the white space in the 3rd position and the 0 in the fourth position. How do I do this?

I have a table with a column as weekdays with datatype as number(7) and the values can be any value from 1-7. For example, 345, 456, 567, 1234567 etc.
I have to find out if the value that is supplied as input shouldn't exist in the table. That is if I pass a value as 123 any of 1 or 2 or 3 shouldn't exist in the table in any position. How do I check this?

Any help in this regard is very much appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Ranganath
