>Shouldn't the second parameter to SUBSTR() be the requested length of the returned string. Seems to me you are passing in the start poistion of the second pipe (i.e. effectively SUBSTR(@comments,19,24) instead of SUBSTR(@comments,19,5))
Yes sorry Viv that was a bit misleading. My query was why would string_length be returned as 21 when I assumed it would be 5 (24 - 19)
the substring returning '685 | PayinInSlipNo: 27' was a leftover from earlier on.
