policynos are just like 134527 I mean with out prefix
like'R-KT-SK-EA-' now I wanted add this prefix as 'R-KT-SK-
EA-134527' for some 50 records. How can I add partial data?

UPDATE temp SET = REPLACE(Policyno,'134527','R-KT-SK-EA-134527') WHERE Policyno = '134527'

UPDATE temp SET = 'R-KT-SK-EA'+ Policyno WHERE Policyno = '134527'

UPDATE temp SET = 'R-KT-SK-EA'+ Policyno WHERE policyno not like 'R-KT-SK-EA-%'
