I asked this question last week but a little bit different, unfortunately I do not have a good answer, I tested all the suggestions, unfortunately it did not work. Today I'll show you what kind of request I wrote.
SELECT
(CASE WHEN displayname LIKE '%~%' THEN
rtrim(left(displayname,charindex('~',displayname)-1))
ELSE displayname
END) AS displayname
FROM Description
The problem in this request is I can remove the string '~ DEL ~ xxxxxx' where x is a number between (0-9) unfortunately the file type will also be removed, maybe someone here could help me.
If I make the request
SELECT [displayname]
FROM [dbo]. [Description]
Current file names:
| DisplayName |
|------------------------------------------------|
| KM_003__Rheihe 4~DEL~389948.pdf |
| KM_004__Reite 2 und Reite 3~DEL~391098.pdf |
| KM_008__Grundriss~DEL~391042.pdf |
| KM_006__Breite~DEL~398646.zip |
| KM_005_Hoch~DEL~356477.dwg |
| SAM_0440~DEL~3088.JPG |
| ... |
| ... |
| ... |
| ... |
What I want it to be:
| DisplayName |
|------------------------------------------------|
| KM_003__Rheihe 4.pdf |
| KM_004__Reite 2 und Reite 3.pdf |
| KM_008__Grundriss.pdf |
| KM_006__Breite.zip |
| KM_005_Hoch.dwg |
| SAM_0440.JPG |
| ... |
| ... |
| ... |
If I make my request, I get that
| DisplayName |
|------------------------------------------------|
| KM_003__Rheihe 4 |
| KM_004__Reite 2 und Reite 3 |
| KM_008__Grundriss |
| KM_006__Breite |
| KM_005_Hoch |
| SAM_0440 |
| ... |
| ... |

If you look correctly, it already fulfils its task in part, unfortunately, the content type (.pdf, .dwg, .zip, etc) has also been removed.
