the first 5 characters are '80438' from iNum field.
Please help me correct the sql query listed below.
Thank You,
SELECT count(iNum) from Call_Movement
where substring(cast(iNum as money) as char(20),1,5) like '80438'
iNum Money Format
iNum Data In Call_Movement Table
803482000146220.0000
803482000147143.0000
803482000153805.0000Try,
SELECT count(iNum)
from Call_Movement
where ltrim(iNum) like '80348%'

Please help me resolve the query error listed below.
Thanks,
Error:
Implicit conversion from data type money to varchar is not allowed. Use the
CONVERT function to run this query.
SQL Query:
SELECT count(iNum)
from Call_Movement
where ltrim(iNum) like '80348%'
