Substring function in sql server extracts a portion of a string, this function troubled me in a couple of times with lack of awareness in string indexes
Now i cleared the ambiquity and so posting here
Syntax
Select substring(stringth, start, length)
Here
String = the main string
Start = from where extraction should start
Length = the total length from 0 th character of the string of main string
Eg.
If we want to extract .’ef’ from ‘abcdef’
The select statement should be like
Select substring(‘abcdef’,5,6)
Ie. Extraction will start from the very start character to the very end
