    I find it extremely annoying that this does not work:

    Hi All,

    Thanks for some of the solutions, I've tried a few.

    SELECT SUBSTRING(@var,28+CHARINDEX ('CustomerFornm: Changed from ',@var),CHARINDEX('CustomerDOB',@var)- CHARINDEX ('CustomerFornm: Changed from ',@var)-28) AS 'Is this really what you

    want?'

    This is quite impressive but it doesn't work for some scenarios. e.g. this one :

    insert into t1

    select 'AAA22222222222222BB5BB 33CCCCCCCCC342234234'

    EDIT: I meant it for Chris response:

    The FROM list and WHERE clause of both of the queries is identical:

    prady_1988 (10/5/2012)


    Sorry, I may have mislead you.

    The values under Relationship is taken from 2 tables.

    Table1 -> AssetID, AssetName

    Table2 -> Relationship1

    Table3 -> Relationship2

    Table4 -> Company

    Hence for each record I am getting...

    Hi Chris.
