    SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR,GetDate(),112) 😛

    Heh...ok, Sara... if you read Jenny's original request, tell me how your code converts the following, posted in that original request, to a date. 😛

    DECLARE @Serial CHAR(12)

    SET @Serial = 'SER074400001'

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
