I have 2 columns, one is numeric and 2nd is TEXT or memo column.

I have been trying for the last few days with no success.

Here is the statement that I have been using:


UPDATE MYTABLE
SET MYMEMO = STR(PERCENTAGE,7)+'   '+MYMEMO

When I run it, I get data type error.

I would appreciate if someone please help me here.

Thx
