I have problem with mysql insert().
I have strings of variable length (15-20 chars) in a table, and I need to add 4 characters to every string. The catch is that I need to add them exactly 4 chars before the end of the string.
For example, given input string 1234567890-123
I need to add 'ABCD' before '-', so that the string becomes 1234567890ABCD-123
.
- I tried with insert() function but it can't do it.
- Is there solution for this or do I need to write an application to do it?
- I use MySQL 4.1.
REPLACE provide a solution:
UPDATE `table` SET `column` = REPLACE(`column`, '-', 'ABCD-');
