Hi all,
My database is not case-sensitive, but I want output like...
SELECT patindex('%[A-Z]%','gaurang Ahmedabad')
The output should be first occurrence of uppercase A to Z, so output should be 9 it should not be 1.
Above query is giving output as 1 bcoz the 1st character in the expression is 'g' and it is in A to Z, but this is not capital 'G'. The 1st capital letter in the expression is 'A' (9th character in the expression).
Is there anyway to achieve this using PATINDEX? or Is there any other way to achieve this?
Thanks,

Hi All,
Can we use the SUBSTRING or PATINDEX function with a User Defined Function as one of the parameters? Something like this:
Code Block
Select SUBSTRING(Select * from DB.dbo.Function('Parameter'), PATINDEX('%\%', Select * from DB.dbo.Function('Parameter'), 8)
Mannu.

I would like solving the following issue using the Patindex function i cannot retrieve or extract the single numeric value as an example in the the values below i would like retrieve the Value 2, but in my result set the value 22 also appears or it is completely omitted.
"2 8 7"
"2 8"
"2"
"22"
"3 2 8"
I have tried the following
Patindex('%[2]% [^0-9] [^1] [^3] [^4] [^5] [^6] [^7] [^8] [^9]' ,Replace(Replace(Marketing_Special_Attributes, '"',''),'^',' ')) as Col3,
Patindex('[2]' ,Replace(Replace(Marketing_Special_Attributes, '"',''),'^',' ')) as Col4,
Patindex('%[2][^0-9]%',Replace(Marketing_Special_Attributes,'^',' ')),

Hi All,
Here's my problem:
I create titles and submit them for approval. Once approved I can edit them again and either save them or submit them for approval again.
My problem is:
When I am creating a title and saving it in the drafts and searching for the title, I am able to find it in the result page. This is before approval.
When I submit the same title for approval and it's approved and then I change the title and save it as draft and then search the new title I cant find it. But when I search with the old title it shows me the result but with the new title name.
When I check the db and search for the new title no records found.
When I check the db and search for the old title the system returns me the record with the same old name.
So when I search the old title in the db it returns the old title.
So when I search the application for the new title it returns the old title.
Help Appreciated!
Using SQL Server 2005
I have a table search the record. The user can search by name, id, status, address and other information.I want to make the search function more robust. For example, when the database has a record with name = "Michael Jackson", either typing any subset of the name will show this record.I would like to know if there is any easy way to implement this with VS2005 and SQL2005 Express.Thank you

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,I'm very new to ASP.NET stuffs, I'm trying to write a Search function for my website... I have two text boxes, one if called "SongTitle" and the other is "Artist"... Now I need to populate the GridView to display the result, based on the input of the textbox... So if only the "SongTitle" have input, it will search for the Song Titles on the database... if the Artist is searched, then it will return the artist... If both text boxes have value in them, then it need to check for both fields in the database and return the correct item... For the "Artist", I have 2 columns in the Database (originalArtist and performer), so for the Artist select statement, it need to check both columns on the table, if any of them match then it will return the item. Any help would be greatly appreciated,Thank you all,Kenny.
View 15 Replies View RelatedHi, I am using the following sql for search function:
Select * From TableABC Where condition LIKE '%xyz%'
However, it does not provide good results, some results is not accurate, I would like to ask, is it any better mechanism for searching?
Please advise. Thanks~

The 'LIKE' function looks for words that start with whatever is in the like condition. Is there an sql function similar but will look and compare at any part of the search string.
For example I am using a webservice in dot net to populate a dropdown list using this sql
SELECT compound_name FROM dbo.compound_name WHERE compound_name like @prefixText
In this table there is a compound called SILCAP310 and I would like the search function to pick up 310 if I put this into the @prefix parameter. (but I would still like the search to perform like the 'LIKE' does also.
SELECT compound_name FROM dbo.compound_name WHERE compound_name like @prefixText or compound_name SearchPartString @prefixText
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I have a search function in my website, which is fully functionable.
But currently, this is the issue that I am having problem with.
For example:
I have only the name 'John' in my database.
When the user search for 'John Tan', no results is shown as there was no such name in the database
But if this happens, I want 'John' to be always returned and shown, no matter what 'John' the user search - E.g "john tan", John Loh", john wee"
So, how do I go about doing this? I have done some research on how to go about doing it, what I found useful was the .Replace() function. However, I can never predict in advance what user is going to key in.
Any help is welcome as this is a rather pressing problem of mine. Thanks for all the help in advance!!!
Hi All!!!
I was tasked to come up with a search function and the content of the database given to me is in Chinese Characters. This would be my first time dealing with Chinese characters in the database and I need help with the following problem:
The company wants to conduct the search in such a way that, instead of having the system read the entire sentence/phrase which the user keyed in as a SINGLE string, they want the Chinese Characters to be accessed individually, so that as long as any information in the database contains any one of the characters which the user have entered, they will be retrieved and returned.
So how do I go about doing this? Does it have anything to do with Unicode? By the way, everything abt the search tool is working fine, I am just left with this dilemma of having the system recognise the entire sentence as ONE STRING, instead of conducting a search word by word or character by character.
Anyway, the following is the SQL statement of my SQL Data Source which is bound to a Gridview displaying the returned results after a search is done...1 SELECT Name, Trans, Address1, Address1T, Address2, Address2T, City, CityT, CRPLID
2 FROM CRPL
3 WHERE (Trans LIKE '%' + @Trans + '%') OR
4 (Name LIKE '%' + @Name + '%') OR
5 (Address1 LIKE '%' + @Address1 + '%') OR
6 (Address1T LIKE '%' + @Address1T + '%') OR
7 (Address2 LIKE '%' + @Address2 + '%') OR
8 (Address2T LIKE '%' + @Address2T + '%') OR
9 (City LIKE '%' + @City + '%') OR
10 (CityT LIKE '%' + @CityT + '%')
Thanks for all your help in advance!!!

View 2 Replies View RelatedGood morning.
I was wondering if someone would point out my flaw. I am attempting to get information separated by spaces, placed into separate columns. I tried without success several times yesterday to get what I desired and was not able to get it done. I am fairly new at developing SQL code and am low on the SQL coding totem pole of experience but would like your help.
Here is what I have so far.
SELECT
CONVERT(char(16), SUBSTRING(c1,
1,
PATINDEX('% %', c1))) SSI_House_Number,
CONVERT(char(15), SUBSTRING(c1,
PATINDEX('% %', c1)+1,
LEN(c1)-PATINDEX('% %', c1)+1)) SSI_Directional
FROM
t1
WHERE
c2 = 4254
My problem arises when I, in the second column, attempt to get only the information BETWEEN the first space: PATINDEX('% %', c1)+1 and the second space. I am coming up short and would like someone to point out my error or assist me in getting the query pointed in the right direction.
Thanks,

View 4 Replies View RelatedAlright, I am trying to write a query that will select a column.. then search through the column and return me the fields with no underscores in them.
i.e we have fields that are like ABCD and ABCD_1. I want to basically return all of them up to the underscore.
so i am trying to use a substring combined with patindex. Here is my statement for patindex. patindex('%_%', short_name)
however, i cannot get patindex to ignore the fact that _ is a wildcard and treat it as character. Ive tried ('%[_]%', short_name) and ive tried ('%!_%', short_name) escape '!' and i just keep getting errors... If someone could help me out, that would be most appreciated. thank you.
I have a number of columns I'm selecting from a table, and I'd like to use PATINDEX to search for a string within a field. Upon finding this string it would return another string...:

WHEN PATINDEX('%INX%',PARTNERID)>0 THEN 'AXXENT'
ELSE PARTNERID
END AS PARTNERID
However, I'm getting this error:Incorrect syntax near '>'.
Hi
I have a table which stores a big chunk of html text, which I have to search for and replace some strings.
How can I write a query that makes use of regular expressions to do the following:
Below is a block of example text
======================================================================
" src="http://aaaa/bbbb/cccc.nsf/blind%2010x10.gif?OpenImageResource" width=10> <img height=10 alt="" src="http://aaaa/bbbb/cccc.nsf/blind%2010x10.gif?OpenImageResource" width=10><img height=11 alt=""

======================================================================
Now I want to search and replace the string that is highlighted in red with something like "FOUND"
The below string is what I want to search for - I will used PATINDEX on the string below to find the start index of the string in the body, and then I will add on 114 to the when doing a replace:
'%http://aaaa/bbbb/cccc.nsf/%some guid%/%some guid%?OpenDocument%'
For example
REPLACE
(
TheField,
SUBSTRING
(
TheField,
PATINDEX(''%http://aaaa/bbbb/cccc.nsf/%some guid%/%some guid%?OpenDocument%', TheField),
,114
)
,
'FOUND'
)
QUESTION:
what would the regular expression be and how does one type it in the query?
I tried something like the below but it does not work, please advise .....
[a-z][0-9]{32} %/% [a-z][0-9]{32}
I have a value in a column '01-08-087-0101W5'. I would like to break this value down into 5 different columns. The column will be broken down at the dashes , so the 5 columns will have values like

08
087
101
5

Acct is varchar(8). What am I doing wrong?

I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks
I am creating a view to pull data for a UPS integration I am doing. I currently have this view where I pull my data from. All is well accept for my PATINDEX,
Currently I have this PATINDEX So when a user puts this into delivery instructions "#999999" UPS_FINAL returns 999999 which is good for me to use. But The PATINDEX will also grab all kinds of neat stuff out of the delivery instructions field when I really only want whatever is after the # sign in the field.
