Pattern recognition problem string

I have a small problem here. I'm trying to deal with the chains, but there are a few inconsistencies with the string format. The channels to follow this format:
A PRODUCT1-FIRST XXXXXX
B-SECOND PRODUCT1 XXXXXXXXXX
PRODUCT1-C-THIRD XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXX PRODUCT1-D-FOURTH
PRODUCT1-E-FIFTH XXXXXXXXXX
PRODUCT1-F-SIXTH XXXXXXXXXX

In most of the six steps for each product: a-FIRST, SECOND B, C-THIRD,..., F-SIXTH. Some products may have less than 6 steps like:
PRODUCT2-A-FIRST
LEADER2-D-FOURTH
LEADER2-F-SIXTH

I want to sort the channels based on PRODUCT. Please note that the word "Product1" is not written as "Product1" result Most of them using the product code as if the PRODUCT1 code number is XX-T-00125 then the first stage of this product is written XX-T-00125-one-FIRST XXXX where XXXX is an extra for descriptive purposes chain (XXXX have no specific rules). But there are a few cases of human error during entry. XX-T-00125-a-FIRST-> extra white space between A - and FIRST or the case where A is not written as a FIRST but has - SECOND. So here's what I have in mind: I want to determine the STAGE (A, B, C). Then, I will assume all of the characters before the A, B, C,... as the product code. What I want is to choose separate (product code). How do I get there? Thank you

Hello

Use regular expressions.

What version of Oracle are you using?
The following works in Oracle 10.1 (and), but from 11 REGEXP_SUBSTR might be better for you.

sELECT     REGEXP_REPLACE ( string
                 , '-\s*[A-F]\s*-.+$'
                 )     AS product
FROM     table_x
;

I hope that answers your question.
If not, post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements), and the results you want from this data.
Examples of special cases, you may need to manage (as one free space, other delimiters as '-', simple letters A - F appearing several times,...)

  • IMAQ JPEG image conversion problem string

    Hi, I'm using the format JPEG decode VI to decode an image string I get a camera at Black fins. It works fine when I run VI himself, but when I use it as a subvi the program crashes. Anyone have advice?

    This is a picture of my program

    It's the way the file is returned to the camera

    'I '. «#IMJxs0s1s2s3...» » Enter the JPEG compressed video image

    x = size of the frame in pixels:
    1 = 80 x 64, 3 = 160 x 120, 5 = 320 x 240, 7 = 640 x 480, 9 = 1280 x 1024

    s0s1s2s3 = size of the image in bytes (s0 * 256 ^ 0 + s1 * 256 ^ 1 + s2 * 256 ^ 2 + s3 * 256 ^ 3).
    ... = full frame JPEG

    Note that sometimes the 'I' command returns nothing if the robot camera is busy, then the 'I' command should be called as many times as necessary until a framework is returned

    I changed the format JPEG decode VI by changing the plans of red and blue color. I don't know if this caused the problem though.

    I tried to use speech recognition on windows 7 but it does not recognize the new device (headset) and tells me that the language of the English of the United States, recognition does not match the language of the user interface.  Could be a missing driver and how do I get it installed.  I never had problems with windows to recognize a new device until I tried to use speech recognition.  I don't understand why I'm having a problem with the language; It will allow speech recognition to open so that I can use it.  Both are these problems related to a missing driver or could there be another reason?

    I do not pretend that it is your problem, but

    select status
    into v_status,
    from registration_offender_xref 
    

    But you said

          v_status  varchar2(10);
    

    Much better to say things like that

          v_status  registration_offender_xref.status%type;
    

    In this way, you know that your variable is declared with a good length, if the length of the column never changes, your code won't kaboom.

  • Satellite Pro 4600 battery recognition problem

    Hi all

    I have a strange problem with my Satellite pro 4600 (SP460E-03371-G3) laptop. I have the battery with the AC adapter unplugged, but the battery indicator turns on (no green, not orange). And the laptop does not start when I push the power button. It's like when the battery is discharged. When I plug in the power adapter, AC power light turns green, Notepad starts OK. And cams CIHI surprise: when I plug the AC everything works perfectly on battery power, but still no sign of the green or orange battery indicator. If I check the power state in Windows XP, the system indicates that the laptop works on current alternative, but the AC is disconnected. Why is this?

    Thank you

    I'm sure that there are defects of electronic power to your laptop. As you can see electronic is confused and the battery is not recognized correctly.

  • WSB600N problems (string disconects)

    Hello

    After becoming irritated beyond comprehension, I hope someone here can help me lol.

    After installing the drivers for this device on WinVista64 little from the CD, it connects to my older D-link Wireless Rangebooster G network but continualy disconects then reconects, disconects then reconects etc. A wired connection works, but as I want to move this computer more far the router a wired connection is not feasible.  I installed this device on 2 different offices a WinVista64 and the other WinXP32, but face the same problems. Both computers were about 3pi away from the router and had the complete wireless signal strength. My local computer store told me that the Linksys should have no problem connecting to my older network because it is backward compatible a lot like laptops in our House, but was bad?

    I thought that I could just have a defective unit so I went back 1 that I bought for a second, but am experincing the same problem. Any help you can provide will be greatly appretiated.

    If you have the same problem with the second wireless adapter, then I would say that this is not a problem with your wireless adapter...

    There are many causes of bad connections wireless and many solutions:

    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you use "linksys", you can try to connect the router to your neighbor. Also set 'SSID Broadcast' to 'active '. This will help your computer to find and lock on the signal from your router.

    Bad wireless connections are often caused by interference from other 2.4 GHz devices. This includes cordless phones, baby monitor wireless, microwave ovens, wireless mice and keyboards, wireless speakers and wireless network from your neighbor. In rare cases, Bluetooth devices can interfere. Even some 5 + GHz phones also use the 2.4 Ghz band. disconnect these devices and see if that solves your problem.

    In your router, try another channel. There are 11 channels in the band of 2.4 GHz channel 1, 6 or 11 generally works better. Discover your neighbors and see what channel they use. Because the channels overlap, try to stay at least + 5 or - 5 channels of your more powerful neighbors. For example, if you have a powerful neighbour on channel 9, try any channel 1 to 4.

    Also, try putting the router about 4 to 6 feet above the ground in an open area. Do not place behind your screen or other computer equipment or speakers. The antenna (if external) must be vertical.

    In addition, in the computer, go to your wireless software and go to 'Favorite networks' (sometimes called 'Profiles'). There are probably a few listed networks. Remove any network called "linksys". Also remove any network that you don't recognize or that you no longer use. If your current network is not listed, enter its information (SSID, encryption (if any) and key (if any)). Select your current network and make your network by default, then set it to auto login. You may need to go to 'settings' to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select 'Properties' or 'settings '.

    If the above does not solve your problem, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.

    Wireless performance can be improved by opting for WPA encryption.

    If you continue to have problems, follow these steps: for wireless g routers, try setting the "baud rate" at 54 Mbps.

    If you still have problems, download and install the latest firmware for your router. After an update of the firmware, you must reset the default router, and then configure the router again from scratch. If you have saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
