Question : URGENT: Need help parsing string for several numeric values SQL database columns
I need to be able to parse column data :
--start example data found in one column (Column1)
Do you have definitions around how availability will be measured?;#5#Are availability requirements factored into the design?;#5#Are changes tested prior to implementation?;#5#Are RFC's initiated to minimize risk and impact to availability?;#5#Are your RFC's assessed for impact on existing and planned availability levels?;#5#Are your availability monitoring requirements identified?;#5#Are your availability threshold levels identified?;#5#Is a process followed when there are threshold breaches?;#5#Do you collect and maintain availability data?;#5#Is the availability data compared with historical data to calculate trends?;#5#Are your SLA's monitored for compliance?;#5#If an SLA is out of compliance is that highlighted and rectified?;#5#
--end example data--
These are answers to a survey. Each column (there are 9 of them) represents a group of questions and their answers. My most urgent need right now is to be able to extract the answers (the numbers within #s) and average them. So the query result for the column above would be:
Column1
5
I will need to do this totally using T-SQL queries. I won't be able to create stored procedures or functions on the database server.
