Hello,

Is there a way to replace select * fileds in result ?
I have select qw.* from table but I want field for example mm to be replaced with custom value like:

select qw.*, case whem length(qw.mm) > 0 THEN COALESCE(SUBSTRING(qw.mm, 1, 1), '') ELSE qw.mm END AS qw.mm

Is there some way to do that ?


No.  If you don’t want a column from “*” to appear in the output you cannot use “*”.  In general, for production, you should avoid “*” anyway.
