Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> Finding non numeric values - sql
I'm trying to find a way to determine if a string holds any non numeric
characters.
For instance, I need to use a Decode to do one thing if a string like
"6706A657987"
has any non numeric characters and do another if it does not. In this
example it has an "A" so it would need to be handled differently than say
"6706657987". I played with Translate a little but it didn't really do the
trick. Any suggestions?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Received on Tue Nov 19 2002 - 19:54:53 CST
