PCKS/306/-06-07
PCKS/308/-06-07


table2
phyto_no
PCKS/33857/-06-07
PCKS/33858/-06-07
PCKS/790/06-07
PCKS/1381/06-07
PCKS/1487/06-07
PCKS/2032/06-07

PCKS/01/1381/06-07
PCKS/01/1487/06-07
PCKS/01/2032/06-07
etc...

I have problem in matching charcter strings. i use the following select query

SELECT * from table1,table2 WHERE UPPER(table1.phyto_cert) = UPPER(table2.phyto_cert) INTO CURSOR cst

Result are as follows:

PCKS/790/06-07
PCKS/1381/06-07
PCKS/1487/06-07
PCKS/2032/06-07

while other phyto nos are missings.i think there is a problem in converting strings with characters like /,-,: etc.
