Re: SQL Query Scalar Function Versus Second Table

Wilt,
Thanks for the advice, I had kind of assumed that there will be a way to create this index. I now realize after trying it as well :) that it is not possible. I will have to go to the trigger solution. 

Thanks and regards
Pillai

Pillai,

If it helps, I don't know of any way to build an index on replace(part,'-',''). 
 Unless that value is stored in another file.

I'd recommend a trigger on the original file that maintains the new 
'dictionary' file.

That's how I like to do these things.
