SQL Server：如何在查询中使用子字符串？

Question

我有这样的行：

 [Arturo Ochando] <20> 

但我只想要：

 Arturo Ochando 

我怎样才能做到这一点 ？

以及如何在“选择”操作中使用它？

更新：我想找到第一个和最后一个'['']'并只捕获其中的内容。

例：

声音：英文版）[钴爪]

返回

钴爪

最好的问候，Valter Henrique。

在first [和next ]之间获取文本。

-- cte for test data
;with actor_character(character) AS
(
  select 'voice: English version) [Cobalt Claw]' union all
  select 'voice: English version) [Cobalt Claw' union all
  select 'voice: English version)  Cobalt Claw]' union all
  select 'voice: English version) ]Cobalt Claw[' union all
  select 'voice: English version)  Cobalt Claw'
)
select *,
  case
    -- Test for not valid positions
    when Start.Pos = 1 or Stop.Pos = 0
    then character
    else substring(character, Start.Pos, Stop.Pos-Start.Pos)
  end
from actor_character
  cross apply (select charindex('[', character)+1) as Start(Pos)
  cross apply (select charindex(']', character, Start.Pos)) as Stop(Pos)

获取first [和last ]之间的文本。

-- cte for test data
;with actor_character(character) AS
(
  select 'voice: English version) [Cobalt Claw]' union all
  select 'voice: English version) [Cobalt Claw' union all
  select 'voice: English version)  Cobalt Claw]' union all
  select 'voice: English version) ]Cobalt Claw[' union all
  select 'voice: English version) [Cobalt]Claw]' union all
  select 'voice: English version)  Cobalt Claw'
)
select *,
  case
    -- Test for not valid positions
    when Start.Pos = 0 or Stop.Pos = 0 or Start.Pos > len(character)-Stop.Pos
    then character
    else substring(character, Start.Pos+1, len(character)-Stop.Pos-Start.Pos)
  end

from actor_character
  cross apply (select charindex('[', character)) as Start(Pos)
  cross apply (select charindex(']', reverse(character))) as Stop(Pos)

听起来您需要一个正则表达式，才能从源字符串中获取所需的数据。

select substring(field, charindex('[', field) + 1, charindex(']', field) - charindex('[', field) - 1)
