SQL & PL/SQL :: Way To Find Out Ending Digits In A String?
Dec 5, 2012
Is there a way to find out the ending digits in a string?
Examples of input and outputs:
'ABC123' -> 123
'ABC' -> NULL
'123ABC' -> NULL
'123ABC456' -> 456
'123ABC456QP98' -> 98
I have figured a way to do it by doing Reverse and re-reversing using: reverse(regexp_substr(reverse(p_string), '[ [:digit:]]*'))
But I'm sure there is a way to do it backwards without using reverse function, which I am not able to properly put in the syntax.

I am using the oracle 10g, I am trying to write the a sql query by which in a below mention patterns I can replace the digits after a string 'CVV' with X. The no of X will be equal to the no of digits after CVV
1. BTA CVV 8810
2. VISA PARTICULAR CCVIXXXXXXXXXXXX5474/1012 CVV498
3. C***CVV VI 569***
4. dskdfjdkgjdfk: FP CCVI,XXXXXXXXXXXX0031/0711/CVV 063/dffddf:dfdfdfd
5. (T) CVV 4671
6. MS-ACEEML/CVV
7. O/AXXXXXXXXXXXX1007EXP1210/CVVXXXXXXXXXXX4664/MEETING CARD FOR AMEX PARTNER OFFICES
AFTER a change above data should look like as mentioned below
1. BTA CVV XXXX
2. VISA PARTICULAR CCVIXXXXXXXXXXXX5474/1012 CVVXXX
3. C***CVV VI XXX***
4. dskdfjdkgjdfk: FP CCVI,XXXXXXXXXXXX0031/0711/CVV XXX/dffddf:dfdfdfd
5. (T) CVV XXX
6. MS-ACEEML/CVV -- no change for this
7. O/AXXXXXXXXXXXX1007EXP1210/CVVXXXXXXXXXXX4664/MEETING CARD FOR AMEX PARTNER OFFICES --- -- no change for this
Initially I tried to find the position of CVV in any string and then from that position take the digit and replace them with X. I tried the below code which is not complete
select REGEXP_INSTR('BTA CVV XXXX','CVV',1,1) from dual;

I'm facing some problem even after using INSTR function in Oracle.The problem is I have written the logic in the PL/SQL block which appends all the values fetched in a loop on the basis of whether the string is present or not.
For ex:
The first value fetched from the select query first is ABCDEFG which gets appended to a variable
The next value fetched is AB even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The next value fetched is BCDEF even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The third Value fetched is ABCDEFG this will not get appended presently according to the logic which is correct.
writing that piece of code to append the value fetched which doesn't exactly match with the existing string

I am trying to update the greatest value in a column from a string of other column.
Ex: f the value is shown 10M+16M+25M-DG, then populate 25 only
so for that I had written query as follows:
update ANCHOR set IEL_STRAND_SIZE= greatest(
substr
(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','),
0,
length(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','))-1))
The output is given as 10,16,25,but not as 25.so how could i write it?Do I need to implement procedure or arrays for it.

I am currently working on a Data Dictionary project where we need to run a few rules against the give data sources to see if they all comply together.
One of the rule is to check if the no. is negative or not. So for that what I tried to do was to check if first the field is number or not and then check on if it is negative or not.
This is the code I am currently trying on and is not looking good.
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL
WHERE decode(DECODE( TRANSLATE('-123.45','-0.123456789',''), NULL, 1,0), 1,substr('-123.45',1,1) ,' ' ) = '-'

I have a requirement, where i need to find and replace values in delimited string. For example, the string is
"GL~1001~157747~FEB-13~ CREDIT~ A~N~ USD~ NULL~".
The 4th column gives month and year. I need to replace it with previous month name. For example:
"GL~1001~ 157747~ JAN-13~ CREDIT~ A~N~USD~NULL~".
I need to do same for last 12 months. I thought of first devide the values and store it in variable and then after replacing it with required value, join it back. I just wanted to know if there is any better way to do it?

I have a table like mentioned below
create table test1( test_no number, test_description varchar2(100));
insert into test1 values (1,'ABC£¥');
insert into test1 values (2,'BCD£¥');
Now I am selecting from the above table and the expected rest it should have shown is as shown below
TEST1
-----------------------
TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABC£¥
2 BCD£¥
But instead of showing the extended ascii characters, it is showing some different characters as shown below
select * from test1;
TEST1
-----------------------
TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABCLY
2 BCDLY
I have an requirement where i need to fetch the exact ascii characters for £ and ¥ instead of L and Y respectively.

Quote: I have a table(table name is names) with column as name(varchar) . I have the following data for name column.
Miss
Mississ
Mississipp
I would like to find a nearest match for Mississippi, that means sql should return row that contains Mississipp( Row #3)
If I try to find nearest match for Mississirr then sql should return row that has column value Mississ (Row#2)
Is this possible ? Here is the code for table creation and data.
create table names (name varchar2(20));
insert into names values('Miss');
insert into names values('Mississ');
insert into names values('Mississipp');

Values
(155, 'DATE_TEST');
I want a code something of this sort:
select profilename from PROFILE where user_data like '%DATE_RULE!115%';
Output will be "Test A".Now, this is just a single value from RULES table used to find the data of PROFILE table.I will have to run the query on multiple values of RULES tables to find records containing a string format of sort "DATE_RULE!<rule_no>". How to search on WILD CARDs like these?

I have a requirement where I have a value stored in varchar2(12), and no matter what the size of data, I should mask all the characters except the last 4
eg: - 23115645
after masking should be - xxxx5645,
create table test1(x varchar2(12))
insert into test1 values('34567745')
/
insert into test1 values('438765311')
/
insert into test1 values('1112345')
/
commit
[Code].....
y should store value of x in such a way that no matter what the size of x is (7 characters or 9), we should see only the last 4, but the remaining should be masked with xxxx
I tried the above update, but using substr, i am able to get this if x has 9 characters
not sure how to achieve this if x has 7, or 4 characters

There is a text item on my form with NUMBER data type. I want to force the user to enter exactly 3 digits in to that text item. My current FORMAT MASK is set to 990. But this allows user to enter even a single digit where as my requirement is user should enter exactly 3 digits. Can we achieve this by changing the FORMAT MASK property?
