While reading an article of SQL server on wiki thought that, In SQL Server, is it possible to merge data types? i.e., to have a cell's value be both a text and a number, with the text being a constant?
My table is named Contract. The value for the ContractID field should be "TCwxyz," where "TC" stands for text characters and "wxyz" for integers.
The following is what I have, however it doesn't appear to be working:
CREATE TYPE TenantContracts AS CHAR(6)
CHECK (SUBSTRING(VALUE,1,2)='TC'
AND (SUBSTRING(VALUE,2,4) AS SMALLINT)
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.
