Update record in SQL Table

Hello Experts,

I need to update a Time field in a table its is nvarchar field.

TimeStamp

ID   date                    Time
--  ------                      -----
1    01/01/2011         10:00
2    01/01/2011         10:57
3    01/01/2011         11:30


All the fields in the Timestamp table are Nvarchar, I need to update Time field with PLUS 1. For instance in the time field I have a string data "10:00" , need to update( +1) . It should be 11:00. And rest of them too 11:57, 12:30,..


Thanks.

IJZ,

Thanks for the Awesome post!.
You are most Welcome
As a passing observation, storing dates and/or times as characters instead of actual date or time datatypes opens up your database to the possibility of having to deal with invalid dates and/or times.  There is a reaseon that Date, Time, and DateTime datatypes exist, just as there is a reason that the INTEGER datatype exists. ;-)
