Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.misc -> [Q] Removing all characters except some
I have a VARCHAR column in some table T. How can I zap away all
characters from the string except digits? I need this in a SELECT
clause, I need to order the entries by the integer values within the
string. There may be non-digit characters anywhere in the string, I
can't just use SUBSTR.
Any help greatly appreciated!
