Question
I have a table with this data
id , name , description
1 , apple , ''
2 , orange , ''
I am trying to pass the following statement to update the row so the description column is 'desc of apple' and 'desc of orange' but it is not working.
Update TestTable Set description = 'desc of ' + name
What is the proper syntax to concatenate strings?
Solution
SQLite's string concatenation operator is "||
", not "+
"
UPDATE TestTable SET description = 'desc of ' || name;
