SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Incorporate SUBSTR Into The Query

Aug 19, 2010

This piece of code returns this below:

RPAD(LPAD(' ',12, ' ') || SUBSTR(adj_second_line,(INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,1) + 1),
(INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,2) - INSTR(adj_second_line,'~',1,1)
- 1)),80,' ') ADJ_SECOND_LINE

Current Output ( ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE 20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY )
===============================================================================================

1) I would like to alter that code above and substr the back 68 characters only with the 12 spaces padded in front, and the trailing nulls to total 80 characters staying as is. How would I put the below substr into that piece of code above?

Desired Output ( 20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY )

SUBSTR(adj_second_line,LENGTH(adj_second_line)-69)
===============================================================================================

2) I also would like the take whatever else there is preceding the 69th character counting it from the back and calling the column ADJ_FIRST_LINE.

Desired Output2 (ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE)

No leading or trailing nulls and This is not a fixed amount of characters.
===============================================================================================

Result would be:

ADJ_FIRST_LINE
-----------------
ADJ#1-2M1YE2 TYPE
ADJ_SECOND_LINE
---------------
20100524 20100624 1MO/0DY
===============================================================================================
