Is it possible to pull the index(s) for capital words in a string. For example, if I have a string that says, GetTableName, would it be possible to output, 0, 3, and 8?

Hi everyone,
As source on a Sql25k table I've got this (often):

I am studying indexes and keys. I have a table that has a fixed width of data to be loaded in the first column which is parsed in a view based on data types within the fixed width specifications.
Example column A:
(name phone house cost of house,zipcodecountystatecountry)
-a view will later split this large varchar string based
column b: is the source filename of the data load (varchar 256)
....
a. would there be a benefit of adding a clustered or nonclustered index (if so which/point in direction on why)
b. is there benefit of making one of these two columns a primary key (millions of records) or for adding a 3rd new column as a pk?
c. view: this parses the data in column a so it ends up looking more like "name phone house cost of house zipcode county state country" each having their own column.
-any pros/cons of adding indexes (if so which) to the view instead of the tables or both for once the data is parsed?
How to parse a string to equal length substrings in SQL
I am getting a long concatenated string from a query (CTVALUE1) and have to use the string in where clause by parsing every 6 characters..
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PTEMP](
[ID] [char](10) NULL,
[name] [char](10) NULL,
[CTVALUE1] [char](80) NULL
)
INSERT INTO PTEMP
VALUES('11','ABC','0000010T00010L0001000T010C0001')
select * from ptemp
After parsing I have to use these values in a where clause like this
IN('000001','0T0001','0L0001','000T01','0C0001')
Now ,the values can change I mean the string may give 5 values(6 character) today and 10 tomorrow.. So the parsing should be dynamic.
Yeah, it's pretty simple. Maybe it'll help someone out.

I am trying to do the following;

InvoiceNumber varchar(10)
)
insert into @table
values (1, 20),
(2, 20),
(2, 20),

I am trying to add sequential alphabet letters to the InvoiceNumber value on each row. Example;
1 20a
2 20b
3 20c
4 60a
5 60b
and so on.
I need to build a query, or use a function to removing alfabetic Character from a string.
My string is
WI14000323-0003
The value i want to keep is : 14000323-0003.
I try using this SELECT:
SELECT STUFF(Upper(z.lote), PATINDEX('%[A-Z]%', Upper(z.lote)), 2, '') from mytable
but in this case i have only 2 letters WI, but in the future i dont know if is only 2 letters, 1 letter or more, then is not what i pretend.
I am trying to find all instances of a string that contain the letters FSC. While I am able to find most of them, I am unable to find the ones wrapped in double quotes.
Query example:
Select *
from myTable
Where item like '%FSC%'
This works great with the exception of when FSC is surrounded by double quotes.
ex: MySentencecontains"FSC"
I have tried Replace with no luck.

I'm working to improve performance on a database I've inherited, and there are several thousand indexes. I've got a list of ones which should definitely exist within the database, and I'm looking to strip out all the others and start fresh, though this list is still quite large (1000 or so).
Is there a way I can remove all the indexes that are not in my list without too much trouble? I.e. without having to manually go through them all individually. The list is currently in a csv file.
I'm looking to either automate the removal of indexes not in the list, or possibly to generate the Create statements for the indexes on the list and simply remove all indexes and then run these statements.
As an aside, when trying to list all indexes in the database, I've found various scripts to do this, but found they all seem to produce differing results. What is the best script to list all indexes?
DECLARE @FullName VARCHAR(100)
SET @FullName = 'Vauxhall Adam Rocks AIR Vauxhall'
SELECT LEFT(@FullName, NULLIF(CHARINDEX(' ', @FullName) -1, -1)) AS [FirstName],
RIGHT(@FullName, ISNULL(NULLIF(CHARINDEX(' ', REVERSE(@FullName)) - 1, -1), LEN(@FullName))) AS [LastName]
This is only gives first and last not first and middle
DECLARE @FullName VARCHAR(100)
SET @FullName = 'Vauxhall Adam Rocks AIR Vauxhall'
SELECT
STUFF(@FullName,charindex(' ',SUBSTRING(@FullName,5,LEN(@FullName)))+5,LEN(@FullName),'') [Firstname1],
STUFF(@FullName,1,charindex(' ',SUBSTRING(@FullName,5,LEN(@FullName)))+4,'') Lastname1
Not right as it gives
Vauxhall
Adam Rocks AIR Vauxhall
Ideally the result should be
Vauxhall

Is there a function / way to extract a word from a particular position in the String.
I want to extract a word which is in the 16th position. All words are separated by spaces.
Our dev team wants to introduce a complex key, which is made up of
EventDate datetime2(5) = ‘2015-10-22 10:19:59.12345’
ConsumerID bigint = 1234
SiteID tinyint = 15
EventDate will be converted to a bigint and then to a hex value
= 2015-10-22 10:19:59.12345 = 2015102210195912345 = 1BF714C8A0D4F699
ConsumerID will be converted to a hex value
= 1234 = 4D2
SiteID will be converted to a hex value
= 15 = F
The hex values will then be concatenated together and stored as a string (varchar). The application will handle the creation of the complex key
= ‘1BF714C8A0D4F699-4D2-F’
I am trying to argue against this approach and get them to store the values in their native form, in separate columns as a natural key.
To make matters worse, we need to use partitioning, where the partition boundary will be on a hexed datetime2(5) at weekly intervals. I was really hoping a proof of concept would show that hex string comparison could potentially put a row under a wrong partition, but so far, on an 8 million rowset, it is working fine.
For example, in the proof of concept, right partition boundary:
= '1BF398D53DFA1800'
(2014-12-15 00:00:00.00000)
contains rows
= '1BF3983242B9C000-1-2'
(2014-12-08 00:00:00.00000-1-2)
Through to
= '1BF398C373960580-2FAF3003-2'
(2014-12-14 23：59：00.00000-800010243-2）
The prior partition boundary is 1
= 'BF3983242B9C000'
(2014-12-08 00:00:00.00000)
How is this working, given that the string lengths (varchar) are different and the row value contains dashes and the partition boundaries are smaller in length without dashes? How varchar string comparison is working here?
