• Craig's idea sounds great!

    Before I saw it, I came up with this , which is similar but different to Wayne's method for tying the rows together...

    Just including it as an option, but probably Craig's SSIS magic is much better as this does some horrible sorting operations :sick:

    ;with magic as

    (

    select

    st.ID

    , st.Extract_Record

    , st.UNID

    , case left(st.Extract_Record,1)

    when '2' then rank() over(partition by left(st.Extract_Record,1) order by st.id)

    else row_number() over(order by st.id) - rank() over(partition by left(st.Extract_Record,1) order by st.id)

    end AS new_ID

    from staging AS st

    where st.Extract_Record like '[23]%'

    )

    update magic

    set unid = new_ID

    MM
