SQL SERVER UPDATE QUERY - Remove apostrophes from data within a table
I have a table (MyData), in which there is a column RecNum, which is a varchar datatype. RecNum column has the following data:
'23546234
'13251511
'13425155
'15125145
'14145154
and so on... (about 3500 more)
I want to write an UPDATE query to remove the apostrophes, while keeping the rest - so the data then becomes:
23546234
13251511
13425155
15125145
14145154
and so on...
Sounds simple, yet I can't figure it out.
