I have a field with something like okbogkbogkbokgbokgobkgobkofkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos
I'd like to extract the name = value from the data.
How can I do that using SQL Server 2008 in efficient way?
thank you
Try this
;
With MyTable as
(
SELECT 'okbogkbogkbokgbokgobkgobkofkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos' FullString
UNION
SELECT 'fkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos' FullString
UNION
SELECT 'okbogkbogkbokgbok' FullString
),
PatternIndex as
(
Select
FullString + '&' FullString,
CharIndex ('&name=', FullString) + 1 LocationOfEqualSign,
CharIndex ('&', FullString, CharIndex ('&name=', FullString)+1) as NextBreak
from MyTable
),
SplitNameValue AS
(
Select
FullString,
CASE
WHEN NextBreak <> 0 THEN
SubString (FullString, LocationOfEqualSign, NextBreak-LocationOfEqualSign)
ELSE '' END
as NameValuePair
From PatternIndex
)
SELECT *
FROM SplitNameValue
Returns
FullString NameValuePair
--------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------
fkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos name=fokdofkd
okbogkbogkbokgbok
okbogkbogkbokgbokgobkgobkofkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos name=fokdofkd
(3 row(s) affected)
SELECT 'name=' + SUBSTRING(field, CHARINDEX('name=', field), CHARINDEX('&', SUBSTRING(field, CHARINDEX('name=' ,field))))
Something along the lines of...
select substring(ColumnName, charindex('name=',ColumnName,1),len(ColumnName))
This will work I think:
Declare #String varchar(100)
Set #String = 'okbogkbogkbokgbokgobkgobkofkgbokfgbo&name=fokdofkd&okfaos'
Select SubString(#String,CharIndex('name=',#String),len(#String))
This produces:
'name=fokdofkd&okfaos'

I have many different types of string, but they all follow the two same patterns:
ABC123-S-XYZ789
ABC123-P-XYZ789
QUESTION 1:
I know how I can extract the first part: ABC123
But how do I extract the second part??? XYZ789
QUESTION 2:
I can't tell beforehand if the string follows the -S- pattern or the -P- pattern, it can be different each time. Anyone who know how I can solve this?
Thanks! / Sophie
You can try following code:
SELECT CASE WHEN #a LIKE '%-S-%' THEN right(#a, CHARINDEX('-S-', #a)-1)
WHEN #a LIKE '%-P-%' THEN right(#a, CHARINDEX('-P-', #a)-1)
ELSE NULL END AS 'ColName'
FROM tablename
Is this what you need?
DECLARE #Input VARCHAR(100) = 'ABC123-S-XYZ789'
SELECT
FirstPart = SUBSTRING(
#Input,
1,
CHARINDEX('-', #Input) - 1),
SecondPart = SUBSTRING(
#Input,
LEN(#Input) - CHARINDEX('-', REVERSE(#Input)) + 2,
100),
Pattern = CASE
WHEN #Input LIKE '%-S-%' THEN 'S'
WHEN #Input LIKE '%-P-%' THEN 'P' END
You can use parsename() if the string has always this kind of parts such as ABC123-S-XYZ789
select col, parsename(replace(col, '-', '.'), 1)
However, the parsename() requires the SQL Server+12 if not then you can use reverse()
select col, reverse(left(reverse(col), charindex('-', reverse(col))-1))
If you're using SQL Server 2016 or newer, you can use STRING_SPLIT
CREATE TABLE #temp (string VARCHAR(100));
INSERT #temp VALUES ('ABC123-S-XYZ789'),('ABC123-P-XYZ789');
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY string ORDER BY string)
FROM #temp t
CROSS APPLY STRING_SPLIT(t.string, '-');
I can't tell beforehand if the string folllows the -S- pattern or the -P- pattern
You can then use a CTE to get a specific part of the string:
WITH cte AS (
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY string ORDER BY string) rn
FROM #temp t
CROSS APPLY STRING_SPLIT(t.string, '-')
)
SELECT * FROM cte WHERE rn = 2
I have data in table this way. If the ; is at the end I would like that replaced with a blank string if not I would leave data same way.
abc;
123;ghi;789
test123;
thisowns;
wer;567;457;test
Result should be
abc
123;ghi;789
test123
thisowns
wer;567;457;test
Try this:
UPDATE <YOUR_TABLE>
SET col1 = LEFT(col1, LEN(col1) - 1)
WHERE RIGHT(col1, 1) = ';'
Hope this help!
You can do:
select (case when col like '%;' then left(col, len(col) - 1) else col end)
You can use RIGHT() function like
case when RIGHT(col1, 1) = ';' then LEFT(col1, LEN(col1) - 1) end
Hope this helps.
;WITH cte_TestData (String)
AS
(
SELECT 'abc;' UNION ALL
SELECT '123;ghi;789' UNION ALL
SELECT 'test123;' UNION ALL
SELECT 'thisowns;' UNION ALL
SELECT 'wer;567;457;test'
)
SELECT CASE
WHEN RIGHT(String, 1) = ';'
AND LEN(String) >= 1
THEN SUBSTRING(String, 1, LEN(String) - 1)
ELSE String
END

Thank you in advance.
I want to remove string after . including ., but length is variable and string can be of any length.
1)Example:
Input:- SCC0204.X and FRK0005.X and RF0023.X and ADF1010.A and HGT9010.V
Output: SCC0204 and FRK0005 and RF0023 and ADF1010.A and HGT9010.V
I tried using the charindex but as the length keeps on changing i wasn't able to do it. I want to trim the values with ending with only X
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Assuming there is only one dot
UPDATE TABLE
SET column_name = left(column_name, charindex('.', column_name) - 1)
For SELECT
select left(column_name, charindex('.', column_name) - 1) AS col
from your_table
Hope this helps. The code only trims the string when the value has a decimal "." in it and if that value is equal to .X
;WITH cte_TestData(Code) AS
(
SELECT 'SCC0204.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'FRK0005.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'RF0023.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'ADF1010.A' UNION ALL
SELECT 'HGT9010.V' UNION ALL
SELECT 'SCC0204' UNION ALL
SELECT 'FRK0005'
)
SELECT CASE
WHEN CHARINDEX('.', Code) > 0 AND RIGHT(Code,2) = '.X'
THEN SUBSTRING(Code, 1, CHARINDEX('.', Code) - 1)
ELSE Code
END
FROM cte_TestData
If the criteria is only to replace remove .X then probably this should also work
;WITH cte_TestData(Code) AS
(
SELECT 'SCC0204.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'FRK0005.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'RF0023.X' UNION ALL
SELECT 'ADF1010.A' UNION ALL
SELECT 'HGT9010.V' UNION ALL
SELECT 'SCC0204' UNION ALL
SELECT 'FRK0005'
)
SELECT REPLACE (Code,'.X','')
FROM cte_TestData
Use LEFT String function :
DECLARE #String VARCHAR(100) = 'SCC0204.XXXXX'
SELECT LEFT(#String,CHARINDEX('.', #String) - 1)
I think your best bet here is to create a function that parses the string and uses regex. I hope this old post helps:
Perform regex (replace) in an SQL query
However, if the value you need to trim is constantly ".X", then you should use
select replace(string, '.x', '')
Please check the below code. I think this will help you.
DECLARE #String VARCHAR(100) = 'SCC0204.X'
IF (SELECT RIGHT(#String,2)) ='.X'
SELECT LEFT(#String,CHARINDEX('.', #String) - 1)
ELSE
SELECT #String
Update: I just missed one of the comments where the OP clarifies the requirement. What I put together below is how you would deal with a requirement to remove everything after the first dot on strings ending with X. I leave this here for reference.
;WITH cte_TestData(Code) AS
(
SELECT 'SCC0204.X' UNION ALL -- ends with '.X'
SELECT 'FRK.000.X' UNION ALL -- ends with '.X', contains multiple dots
SELECT 'RF0023.AX' UNION ALL -- ends with '.AX'
SELECT 'ADF1010.A' UNION ALL -- ends with '.A'
SELECT 'HGT9010.V' UNION ALL -- ends with '.V'
SELECT 'SCC0204.XF' UNION ALL -- ends with '.XF'
SELECT 'FRK0005' UNION ALL -- totally clean
SELECT 'ABCX' -- ends with 'X', not dots
)
SELECT
orig_string = code,
newstring =
SUBSTRING
(
code, 1,
CASE
WHEN code LIKE '%X'
THEN ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX('.',code)-1, -1), LEN(code))
ELSE LEN(code)
END
)
FROM cte_TestData;
FYI - SQL Server 2012+ you could simplify this code like this:
SELECT
orig_string = code,
newstring =
SUBSTRING(code, 1,IIF(code LIKE '%X', ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX('.',code)-1, -1), LEN(code)), LEN(code)))
FROM cte_TestData;
With SUBSTRING you can achieve your requirements by below code.
SELECT SUBSTRING(column_name, 0, CHARINDEX('.', column_name)) AS col
FROM your_table
If you want to remove fixed .X from string you can also use REPLACE function.
SELECT REPLACE(column_name, '.X', '') AS col

I want to extract the values of empid,empname,adminname,term,teamid,contactid,WP,Months,Dueday,StrDt,MemCatgmStrTm,PlnHrs,WrkDays and assign them to new variables
I have used
select ( SUBSTRING(#qstr,CHARINDEX('=',#qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&',#qstr)-CHARINDEX('=',#qstr)-1)))
but only getting the 'empemail' , for the next occurance of special char '&' , not able to get the values of further terms , if i am using '&' in spite of '=' .
Help me to split the whole string
How about using XML to split the values into rows, and then splitting them into columns.
Something like
Declare #qstr as varchar(max)='hireteammember.aspx?empemail=kuldeep#asselsolutions.com&empid=376&empname=kuldeep&adminname=TMA1&term=5&teamid=161&contactid=614¥1&WP=100¥5¥Months&Amt=500&DueDay=5&StrDt=12/31/2013&MemCatg=Employees&StrTm=21:05&PlnHrs=5&WrkDays=true¥true¥true¥true¥true¥false¥false'
DECLARe #str VARCHAR(MAX) = SUBSTRING(#qstr,CHARINDEX('?',#qstr,0) + 1, LEN(#qstr)-CHARINDEX('?',#qstr,0))
DECLARE #xml XML
SELECT #xml = CAST('<d>' + REPLACE(#str, '&', '</d><d>') + '</d>' AS XML)
;WITH Vals AS (
SELECT T.split.value('.', 'nvarchar(max)') AS data
FROM #xml.nodes('/d') T(split)
)
SELECT LEFT(data,CHARINDEX('=',data,0) - 1),
RIGHT(data,LEN(data) - CHARINDEX('=',data,0))
FROM Vals

I believe that this will do exactly what you are asking.

If the order of the values in the html string remains same i would suggest using the whole string name like
select ( SUBSTRING(#qstr,CHARINDEX('empemail=',#qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&empid=',#qstr)-CHARINDEX('empemail=',#qstr)-1)))
If you are still looking for nth occurance then refer to this link
Declare #qstr as varchar(max)='hireteammember.aspx?empemail=kuldeep#asselsolutions.com&empid=376&empname=kuldeep&adminname=TMA1&term=5&teamid=161&contactid=614¥1&WP=100¥5¥Months&Amt=500&DueDay=5&StrDt=12/31/2013&MemCatg=Employees&StrTm=21:05&PlnHrs=5&WrkDays=true¥true¥true¥true¥true¥false¥false'
(select ( SUBSTRING(#qstr,CHARINDEX('&empname=',#qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&adminname=',#qstr)-CHARINDEX('&empname=',#qstr)-1)))
(select ( SUBSTRING(#qstr,CHARINDEX('?empemail=',#qstr)+1,CHARINDEX('&empid=',#qstr)-CHARINDEX('?empemail=',#qstr)-1)))

I have a table with this values:
Articles/Search/ArtMID/2681/ArticleID/2218/Diet.aspx
OurStory/MeettheFoodieandtheMD.aspx
TheFood/OurMenu.aspx
I want to get this
Diet.aspx
MeettheFoodieandtheMD.aspx
OurMenu.aspx
How can i do this?
The way to do it in SQL :
SELECT SUBSTRING( string , LEN(string) - CHARINDEX('/',REVERSE(string)) + 2 , LEN(string) ) FROM SAMPLE;
JSFiddle here http://sqlfiddle.com/#!3/41ead/11
SELECT REVERSE(LEFT(REVERSE(columnName), CHARINDEX('/', REVERSE(columnName)) - 1))
FROM tableName
SQLFiddle Demo
ORHER SOURCE(s)
REVERSE
LEFT
CHARINDEX
Please try:
select url,(CASE WHEN CHARINDEX('/', url, 1)=0 THEN url ELSE RIGHT(url, CHARINDEX('/', REVERSE(url)) - 1) END)
from(
select 'Articles/Search/ArtMID/2681/ArticleID/2218/Diet.aspx' as url union
select 'OurStory/MeettheFoodieandtheMD.aspx' as url union
select 'MeettheFoodieandtheMD.aspx' as url
)xx
Try this. It's easier.
SELECT RIGHT(string, CHARINDEX('/', REVERSE(string)) -1) FROM TableName
SELECT REVERSE ((
SELECT TOP 1 value FROM STRING_SPLIT(REVERSE('Articles/Search/ArtMID/2681/ArticleID/2218/Diet.aspx'), '/')
)) AS fName
Result: Diet.aspx
Standard STRING_SPLIT does not allow to take last value.
The trick is to reverse the string (REVERSE) before splitting with STRING_SPLIT, get the first value from the end (TOP 1 value) and then the result needs to be reversed again (REVERSE) to restore the original chars sequence.
Here is the common approach, when working with SQL table:
SELECT REVERSE ((
SELECT TOP 1 VALUE FROM STRING_SPLIT(REVERSE(mySearchString), '/')
)) AS myLastValue
FROM myTable
A slightly more compact way of doing this (similar to ktaria's answer but in SQL Server) would be
SELECT TOP 1 REVERSE(value) FROM STRING_SPLIT(REVERSE(fullPath), '/') AS fileName
The equivalent for PostgreSQL:
SELECT reverse(split_part(reverse(column_name), '/', 1));
Please try the code below:
SELECT SUBSTRING( attachment, LEN(attachment)
- CHARINDEX('/', REVERSE(attachment)) + 2, LEN(attachment) ) AS filename
FROM filestable;
more simple and elegant :
select reverse(SPLIT_PART(reverse('Articles/Search/ArtMID/2681/ArticleID/2218/Diet.aspx'), '/',1))
You can try this too
( SELECT TOP(1) value
FROM STRING_SPLIT(#string, '/')
ORDER BY CHARINDEX('/' + value + '/', '/' + #string+ '-') DESC)
I corrected jazzytomato's solution for single character tokens (D) and for single tokens (Diet.aspx)
SELECT SUBSTRING( string , LEN(string) - CHARINDEX('/','/'+REVERSE(string)) + 2 , LEN(string) ) FROM SAMPLE;
The easiest way in MySQL:
SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(string, '/', -1) FROM SAMPLE;
I have more simple solve
SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(string, 'SUBSTRING_INDEX(string, '/', -1)', 1) FROM SAMPLE;
reverse(SUBSTRING(reverse(yourString),0,CHARINDEX('/',reverse(yourString)))) as stringLastPart
Create Table #temp
(
ID int identity(1,1) not null,
value varchar(100) not null
)
DECLARE #fileName VARCHAR(100);
INSERT INTO #temp(value) SELECT value from STRING_SPLIT('C:\Users\Documents\Datavalidation\Input.csv','\')
SET #fileName=(SELECT TOP 1 value from #temp ORDER BY ID DESC);
SELECT #fileName AS File_Name;
DROP TABLE #temp
