Hi mansooraabid,

I have 3 columns(with data types are STRING(varchar)) in a table by name bondId,bondName and BondXMLinfo

I want the output as bondId, bondName and ExpDate from the BondXMLinfo columns

According to your description, I couldn’t understand your requirement clearly.

Do you mean you want to query the values of the other 2 columns in the sql?

If yes, then why don’t you use the query directly?

SELECT bondName, bondId FROM table;

If I misunderstand your requirement, please post more details information about your requirement.

Best regards,

Sam
