 SUBSTRING question I am trying to find a way to dynamically retrieve the substring starting point for an nText field. My query looks something like SELECT ID,Substring(DOCTEXT,0,200) from mytable where DOCTEXT like 'claim%'" This query has substring starting point set to 0. Is there a way to determine the starting point based on the first occurrence of the search term? If first occurrence of 'claim' is at 25th character then the query should start substring at 25th and end at 225th character. I am trying to avoid usage of UDF. Is there a way to handle this through plain a SQL statement? Any help would be appreciated. TIA.      |
