    Logic ?

    MID=(CASE WHEN ID-100=0 THEN NULL

    ELSE ID-100 END

    )

    That would work on the example data but I doubt the real situation is that straight forward. The code that Jeff and I posted makes it dynamic.

    ok ... but sometimes the simple, we do not see ... Without data, it really is very, very complicated ...

    You are correct. It really comes down to what the actual requirements are. 😉
