How to substring a string in sql server 2008? [closed]

Answer 1

I had wrote a function to split my string data. This can be beneficial for you too :

   CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[SPLIT]
(
    @ROWDATA NVARCHAR(2000),
    @SPLITON NVARCHAR(5)
)  
RETURNS @RTNVALUE TABLE 
(
    ID INT IDENTITY(1,1),
    DATA NVARCHAR(100)
) 

AS  
BEGIN 
    DECLARE @CNT INT
    SET @CNT =  LEN(@SPLITON)

WHILE (CHARINDEX(@SPLITON,@ROWDATA)>0)
BEGIN
    INSERT INTO @RTNVALUE (DATA)
    SELECT 
        DATA = LTRIM(RTRIM(SUBSTRING(@ROWDATA,1,CHARINDEX(@SPLITON,@ROWDATA)-1)))

    SET @ROWDATA = SUBSTRING(@ROWDATA,CHARINDEX(@SPLITON,@ROWDATA)+1,LEN(@ROWDATA))
    SET @CNT = @CNT + @CNT
END

INSERT INTO @RTNVALUE (DATA)
SELECT DATA = LTRIM(RTRIM(@ROWDATA))

RETURN
END

Create this function And then

SELECT DATA FROM SPLIT ('CMS/00014456582/693362/004535/JCR_110914_NEW_4535 CMS','/');

This will return a table that each row is "/" seperated data of your string.
