Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Hi guys.

 

Using PAD i am trying to run SQL query on Excel file but having problem with value that has hyphen in the middle of it.

 

my sql is 

 

select sum([Sales])

where shop in ("7-11")

 

 

it can run but returns 0 as value.

 

is there any solution to do this?

 

thank you

    Are you supposed to be using in here? What would the values of shop be?

     

    Where you after something like this instead:

     

    SELECT sum([Sales])
    WHERE CONTAINS(shop, '7-11');

     

    Or possibly:

     

    SELECT sum([Sales])
    WHERE shop like '%7-11%';
