Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> SQL question
How would you take the same string "/dir1/dir2/test/file.out", and return "file.out". Assume you do not know where the last '/' is or how many there are. What I need is a reverse instr function. Find the last occurrance of '/', not the first.
Can it be done in sqlplus???
