How to get rightmost 10 places of a string in oracle
(5 answers)
Closed 8 years ago.
I have a table containing the following fields:
version
id
set_value
marker
I want to write a SELECT statement to query them. However, the values in the column marker are not easily readable. I would like to present a substring of that column. My question is how do I do this?
You can use this:
SELECT version,
id,
set_value,
SUBSTR(marker, 1, 10) AS marker
FROM ...
to select just the first ten characters of marker, and still have the resulting column be named "marker".
(See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/functions169.htm.)
You can use the substr function.

NOIDEHOB_NOIDE1_4321-123
i want to create a querie that extract the following values from the example above:
NOIDEHOB
NOIDE1
4321-123
I need to base the query on the sign _. The values NOIDEHOB, NOIDE1 and 4321-123 are dynamic and the length will vary. There will never be any other _ sign in the string.
Any suggestions?
You can use string_split():
select s.value
from string_split('NOIDEHOB_NOIDE1_4321-123', '_') s

How to extract Certain nth character from a string in SQL
(4 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I am trying to select a column using SQL but with a condition that would ignore all values in the column that have the 4th character of the value as 0.
For example,
my Column is called promos, and the stored values are W080045678, I want this value to be ignore since the 4th character is a 0 in the string.
What is the condition that I can add?
I have tried
AND promos <> '__'0%'
But no luck.
You are looking for NOT LIKE:
and promos not like '___0%'

I'm a new SQL user, and I'd like to know if there is a simple way of replacing non-English characters in Oracle SQl-developer. Let's Say, I want Hernán Nuñez to show up as Hernan Nunez, but without having to actually replace "Hernán" with "Hernan". What I need is to replace everything that contains "á" to the same thing, but with "a" instead, for example. Any suggestions?

I have this piece of text that is stored in our MS-SQL database (ignore the quotes and no, I can't redesign how this work specifically):
"TEST|00000298398293|EQ5|Patient"
Now, when I do a simple select, I get that result being returned. What I'd like to do is split that string based on the "|" character and return the individual strings associated with this string, so that I could have "TEST", "0000298398293", "EQ5" and "Patient" in different fields. How can I do this? In PHP, you can use the explode method, is there something like that in MS-SQL?
It's surely not the most elegant solution but i've used in in the past:
DECLARE #Sql varchar(50) = 'TEST|00000298398293|EQ5|Patient'
SELECT
PARSENAME(REPLACE(#sql,'|','.'),4),
PARSENAME(REPLACE(#sql,'|','.'),3),
PARSENAME(REPLACE(#sql,'|','.'),2),
PARSENAME(REPLACE(#sql,'|','.'),1)
Notice : This only works if you have 3 pipes, eventually consider to redesign your database in the future!
