Use TRIM function following WHERE in SELECT statement?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I'm new to MySQL and i'm trying to figure out if i can do something like:

 

select x from xy where xyz='?' and abc=TRIM(LEADING '@' FROM 'pre@test')

 

This syntax isn't working for me; what's the correct way to use a TRIM function like this?

 

Instead of pre@test, i'm actually going to use a variable...thats why i want the trim.

 

Thanks for your help!

Eric
