Question

I have a requirement where at first I need to remove all space from a string, then put a space after 3 characters started from right.

I have removed the spaces but putting space after certain characters is not happening.

IE:

AX1098 
AX1 098  

Answer 1

SELECT INSERT('AX1098', 4, 0, ' ');

To update all rows:

UPDATE YOURTABLE
SET YOURCOL = INSERT(YOURCOL, 4, 0, ' ');
