I have a table containing a column with a string value, and 3 other columns with data. How do I replace parts of the string, with the value of the other 3 columns? I need to be able to iterate this over various entries as well.



Data sample:



  DocNum |   DMS   | DMSDatabase | DocumentID
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
38213097 | DMS-OLD | DB2 | !nrtdms:0:!session:DMS-OLD:!database:DB1:!document:373108696,1:


What I need the DocumentID column to be replaced with:



!nrtdms:0:!session:DMS-NEW:!database:DB2:!document:38213097,1:

  • Do your fields really have all that whitespace padding, or is that just visual formatting?

  • Please edit the question to show the actual format of the data. Also where does DMS-NEW come from? is that just a fixed string?
