Extract Substring In Statement
Feb 12, 2015
I tried to extract the information in a field
Samples of the data:
"Current Date updated ( 12/31/2015 -> 12/31/2016 )"
"Status updated ( Open -> Should be Closed )"
From example 1 ==> need outputs of " 12/13/2015" and "12/31/2016";
example 2 --> need outputs of "Open" and "Should be Closed"
These are what all records look like:
1. It contains the word, "updated".
2. There is a space after the last character of updated. Then, there is a space before open parenthesis. Then, there is a space before getting the required word. Example: "updated ( xxxxx" (xxxxx is a required extract word.)
3. The entire word(s) should be captured before the "->" sign (after the open parenthesis)
4. The last part is to captured everything after the "->" but before the close parenthesis ")"

Hello forum, I need extract a substring form a string that follows a regular expressions -->
T:1º/PQ:1/TALLA:2(MOD.51 100/150)
T:<number>º/PQ:<number>...
I need to extract only the numbers. The SUBSTRING functions is insuficient for me, because in some cases de number can be 1, 10, 100, 1000, ...
I would like me use it as:
SELECT RegularExpression (Field)
Can you help me, please.
Thanks for all in advanced. I will appreciate a lot your help.

I have a table which has a field called Org. This field can be segmented from one to five segments based on a user defined delimiter and user defined segment length. Another table contains one row of data with the user defined delimiter and the start and length of each segment. e.g.
Table 1
Org
aaa:aaa:aa
aaa:aaa:ab
aaa:aab:aa
Table 2
delim
Seg1Start
Seg1Len
Seg2Start
Seg2Len
Seg3Start
Seg3Len
:
1
3
5
3
9
2
My objective is to use SSIS and derive three columns from the one column in Table 1 based on the positions defined in Table 2. Table 2 is a single row table. I thought perhaps I could use the substring function and nest the select statement in place of the parameters in the derived column data flow. I don't seem to be able to get this to work.
Any ideas? Can this be done in SSIS?
I'd really appreciate any insight that anyone might have.
Regards,
Bill

Suppose I have a table with relations (REL). In this table there are relations between parent en child, so the columns are: Rel_Id, parent_Id, child_Id. Example:
1, A, B
2, A, C
3, A, D
4, B, E
5, C, F
6, G, H
7, G, I
8, H, J
I need a query which returns all relations from REL that are in the same tree as the input unit.
In the example, giving D as input unit, it should return relations 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, because A, B, C, E and F are (in)directly related to D and belong therefore to the same tree.
Giving H as input, it should return relations 6, 7 and 8.
(with a tree, I mean that a parent can have 0, 1 or more children and a child belongs at most one parent.)
Thanks for your help in advance!

Hi all,
I have just started using SQL7 and quite dumb at it.
Here is my problem
i have tables ip_address and ip_subnets. both contains more than 20,000 records. Though ideally each subnet should correspond to only one ip address it is not so due to SMS inventory and remote clients configurations etc.
As an example If my ip address is 141.151.128.78 I need to select only 141.151.128.64 ( or atleast 141.151.128.*)as the valid subnet. In other words I need to compare upto 3rd octet and only if it matches with ip address then declare that as the valid subnet.
Pls note that ip addresses vary for each machine though there will 4 octets, I can't use character positions as the nos in each octet might vary from 1-255.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Pasted here under is the query script I am playing around with charcter poistions which are not working in my favor. Just added to explain my problems in more clearer way
select distinct system_data.name0, System_IP_Address_ARR.ip_addresses0, System_IP_subnets_Arr.ip_subnets0, system_disc.client0 from system_Data, System_IP_Address_ARR, system_ip_subnets_arr, system_disc where system_data.machineid = System_IP_Address_ARR.itemkey and system_data.machineid = system_ip_subnets_arr.itemkey and system_data.machineid = system_disc.itemkey and system_disc.client0 = 1 and substring(System_IP_Address_ARR.ip_addresses0,1,10 ) = substring(System_IP_subnets_ARR.ip_subnets0,1,10) and substring(System_IP_Address_ARR.ip_addresses0,10,1 ) = '.' and System_IP_subnets_ARR.ip_subnets0 not in ('11%.%.%.%','12%.%.%.%', '10%.%.%.%' , '10.%.%.%' , '1.%.%.%') order by System_DATA.name0

I an trying gto devide this one field that contains city state and zip into 3 seperate columns. The Column right now looks like this:

SOUTH EL MONTE CA91733617
BOSSIER LA71172
GARDENA CA90249107
MILWAUKEE WI53216
PARIS IL61944
DUQUOIN IL62832
REDWOOD FALLS MN56283
AUBURN ME04210
I tryed this:
use cimpro1
select substring(cust_shipto_addr_l3, 1, 19) as 'City',
substring(cust_shipto_addr_l3, 20, 21) as 'State',
substring (cust_shipto_addr_l3, 22, 31) as 'Zip'
from opcshto
For some reason, when I run the query I get this for State:
State
-------------------------
CA91733617
LA71172
CA90249107
WI53216
IL61944
IL62832
MN56283
ME04210
When I use the substring to only pull characters 20 and 21 it pulls everything startign at 20. I just want it to select character position 20 ans 21 for the state. As far as the substring for City and Zip, everything comes out fine. Its just State that I am having trouble with.
Any help is appreciated.

I'm using the GridView to display some accounting infromation. I have a project where I have a 14 character control number. I would like to have a dropdown list to select the account classification of records to be displayed. The accounting classification is the first two characters of the control number. So the dropdown list needs to show unique first two characters and the GridView will be filtered on these two characters. I have been trying to use "substring" in the ASP.NET code; not even sure you can.
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this would be greatly appreciated. See code below:
<asp:DropDownList ID="DropDownList1" runat="server" AutoPostBack="True" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource2"
DataTextField="control_num" DataValueField="control_num">
</asp:DropDownList><asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource2" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:GPCRReportsConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT DISTINCT [substring(control_num,1,2)] FROM [Request]"></asp:SqlDataSource>
ERROR: Invalid column name 'substring(control_num,1,2)'.

Hi,
I'm trying to do write a query in SQL that returns the last two characters in a field.
If the actual fields are sheep, dog, cat, parrot
I want the query to return ep, og, at, ot
After rooting around I've discovered the SQL 'substring' function.
The problem I have is that the field has a variable length, so I need a way of passing the strign length to substring.
Its probably simple to solve, but not for a rookie like me without an example and I am (as always) grateful for any ideas.
