MS SQL VIEW Problem

  • I have a view where i need to combine 2 feilds, my code is as follows:

    CREATE VIEW dbo.view1 (

    [test_combo]

    )

    AS

    SELECT

    dbo.listing.link+dbo.listing.ID

    FROM

    dbo.listing

    The problem I am having is that since one feild is text and the other is numeric the join doesnt work. I have made this work with two text fields.

    Basically what I am trying to do is combine fields to make make a link like this: http://www.1.com/1.asp?ID=%5BID%5D

    How do I convert this to all text?

  • Look up CAST and COVERT functions in books online :).

    * I didn't think so, but if I was wrong, I was wrong. I'd rather do something, and make a mistake than be frightened and be doing nothing. :smooooth:[/font]
