Hi all..
A relatively simple query I am sure, and it may be one I have asked previously so I apologise. My SQL work sometimes has a few months break!
I have a field in my Source Data known as Accounting_Month- this is made up of 7 characters, namely month/full year e.g.
01/2015 = Jan 2015
02/2015 = Feb 2015
and so on...
When I select that field it outputs as 01/2015, 02/2015 etc. but what I'd like to do is convert the output of the above from VARCHAR so that it outputs 01/2015 as Jan 15, 02/2015 as Feb 15, and so on.
Does anyone have any simple steps to do this?
I am eventually going to use it in an SSRS report so if it's easier, can I format it once I am at the point of designing my report rather than trying to do this in the SQL? If so, how?!
Thanks very much (smiley face)
