Question:
How do I compare two values when one value(data type) is char and the other is an integer?
Answer:
For this you can use the CONVERT function. Since you can’t convert character data to numbers, you’ll have to convert the integer column to character. Assuming you have a table called TestTable with two columns:
IntCol intCharCol char(10)with these valuesIntCol CharCol------ -------1 12 23 xyz4 5
You can use this query to SELECT rows based on a comparison:
SELECT *FROM TestTableWHERE CONVERT(char(10), IntCol) = CharColIntCol CharCol ----------- ---------- 1 1 2 2
