If I have a table as follows:
CREATE TABLE test1 (a char(5));
how would I test that the 2nd character of column a is NOT the letter 'b' for example.
In Informix I would say:
SELECT count(*) FROM test1 where a[2] <> 'b';
In POSTGRES I get an error saying "ERROR: cannot subscript type character because it is not an array". I understand why I'm getting the error, but I'm not sure how I do what I want to do?
Thanks to all in advance.
