Check The First Occurence Of A Numeric In A String
Mar 17, 2008
Hi All,
I want to extract a numeric value from a string. Example, in a string like - Mgmt Pack: Processor Exception Threshold >80% Every 10 Minutes. - I want to extract that number 80. Since, later I'll want this number to plot a graph.
Since this is going to be an alert pulled from OnePoint (MOM Operational Database), the number will vary, and so I cannot look for the same number. So, can anyone help me how to get this working?
Thanks a lot in advance and let me know if the question is not clear.
Manoj Deshpande.

Hi all,
Is there a function in SQL that will return the number of occurence of 1 string to the other.
e.g.
string1 = "1"
string2 = "2131145"
function should return 3
How do i obtain this in SQL?
Thanks in advance

Hi Friends:
I usually run this query in Oracle to find out the position of a character in a string from first position to the nth occurence.
For example, I run the following queries in oracle to get the desire result.
SQL> select instr('DADADAQQQA','A',1,1) FROM DUAL;
INSTR('DADADAQQQA','A',1,1) -- First occurence of 'A' from start.
---------------------------
2
SQL> select instr('DADADAQQQA','A',1,2) FROM DUAL;
INSTR('DADADAQQQA','A',1,2) -- Second occurence of 'A' from start.
---------------------------
4
SQL> select instr('DADADAQQQA','A',1,3) FROM DUAL;
INSTR('DADADAQQQA','A',1,3) -- Third occurence of 'A' from start.
---------------------------
6
SQL> select instr('DADADAQQQA','A',1,4) FROM DUAL;
INSTR('DADADAQQQA','A',1,4) -- Forth occurence of 'A' from start.
---------------------------
10
Is there ay equivelant way in Transact- SQL? If not, can anybody suggest the solution?

Hi Everyone-
i woder if someone know Built in function to search the occurence of char in string in T-SQL
and iam not talking about the Index of the first occurence (e.g CHARINDEX )
but it is more generic
i want to send to the function to ask about the index the second or the third or N occurence of the char.
and i wonder if it is built in for performance reasons
example
getseachIndex("M|d|d","|",2)==> the result is 4

Hi,
I was trying to find numeric characters in a field of nvarchar. I looked this up in HELP.
Wildcard
Meaning
%
Any string of zero or more characters.
_
Any single character.
[ ]
Any single character within the specified range (for example, [a-f]) or set (for example, [abcdef]).
Any single character not within the specified range (for example, [^a - f]) or set (for example, [^abcdef]).
Nowhere in the examples below it in Help was it explicitly detailed that a user could do this.
In MS Access the # can be substituted for any numeric character such that I could do a WHERE clause:
WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE "####*"
After looking at the above for the [ ] wildcard, it became clear that I could subsitute [0-9] for #:
WHERE
Gift_Date NOT LIKE '[0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]%'
using single quotes and the % wildcard instead of Access' double quotes and * wildcard.
Just putting this out there for anybody else that is new to SQL, like me.
Regards,
Patrick Briggs,

Is it possible to write a sql statement to skip aplpha numeric values? I got a field containing these values; 20, 70, 150, 140, 100, KORT, 90, 180, 160. And I'm trying to check if any value is bigger than 175 (@Limit), but I want to skip the value 'KORT'. So is it possible to check if a value is numeric or not?

Hi all,
I defined an user string type varible in the package as AccountLen. I am trying to use this varible in the Expression of Derived Column transformation.
I want to retrieve a part of column, i.e: Right(Column1, @AccountLen), this is always wrong because the AccountLen is string type. How I can convert it to the numeric so that can be used in the RIGHT function?
Thanks

This statement works fine in T-SQL, but when executed thru ODBC results in a <NULL>. How can I get this to work thru ODBC....? Im guessing I need to use CAST, but not sure how the sytax would be, my attempts have worked but still resulted in a <NULL>...
UPDATE mytable SET
switch = left(switch, 3) + '1' + right(switch , len(switch) -4)
WHERE blah = blah
(switch is a Numeric field)

Hi,
As part of a data search project I need to be able to strip all non numeric characters from a text field. The field contains various forms of phone number in various formats. In order to search on it I am going to remove all non numeric characters from the input criteria and from the data being searched.
In order to do this I decided on using a SQL Server custom function: Pass in field. Loop through all chars, test against asci values for number range. return only numernic data concatenated into a string.
Are there any other more efficient ways of going about this?

I have written this query to return only numeric characters from a string.
select *
from TableA
where isNumeric(Column_A) = 1
But I have discovered that the following
SELECT IsNumeric('-')
SELECT IsNumeric('�')
SELECT IsNumeric('$')
SELECT IsNumeric('+')
all return a value of 1. I do not want these in my result set.
If I use Column_A NOT LIKE '%[a-z]%' and Column_A <> '' I get characters such as "", ----- etc in my result set.
I would like a simple way of only returning numbers in my resultset.
Thanks for looking at this.

I am looking for the fastest way to strip non-numeric characters from a string.
I have a user database that has a column (USER_TELNO) in which the user can drop a telephone number (for example '+31 (0)12-123 456'). An extra computed column (FORMATTED_TELNO) should contain the formatted telephone number (31012123456 in the example)
Note: the column FORMATTED_TELNO must be indexed, so the UDF in the computed column has WITH SCHEMABINDING.... I think this implicates that a CLR call won't work....

Hi All,
i'm using a "data conversion" object to convert a numeric field to a string just before i save the record set to the database.
the problem is when this numeric field is > 0 it looses the precision on its decimal value.
example, if numeric value is 0.32
after converting this to a string, the new value will be : .32
it's lost the 0 infront of it. i can't do this converion in the query level because it's a derived field, so i need to convert it to a string before stroing it.
when converting to string i'm using the code page 1252 (ANSI - Latin I). i also tried with unicode string both looses this 0 infront.
can any one help on this?

I have a column that I'm trying to call into a calculated measure to determine an expected contract amount (Terms in Month). The problem is that some of the terms are defined as text strings (MTM, Coterminous, One-time) while others are numbers (12, 36, etc). The entire column is recognized as text. I have a numeric value that management has agreed would be an acceptable substitution (MTM=1, Coterminous=6) and so on. I can't however, figure out how to convert those texts to a number since they are different data types. I've tried a nested IF statement, as well as a LOOKUPVALUE..I'm doing this in Power Pivot, so am limited to DAX formulas

i've been reading some problems with excel source data being force as
numeric type when there are string/numeric type in the data, but adding
IMEX=1 to the extended properties will fix this problem...this is true
but not in my case...
say my excel file have about 40 rows..if row 1-39 in column A are all
NULL and row 40 has a string in it, the string in row 40 will not be
converted and the excel source is forcing this column A data type to be
numeric..having IMEX=1 in there does not work..however..if i add a
string anywhere in row 1-8 in column A, the the string in row 40 will
be converted because the external data type now is a string..
anyone know how to solve this problem?
