Is there anyway to extract part of a string in a stored procedure
using a parameter as the starting point?
For example, my string might read: x234y01zx567y07 zx541y04z
My Parameter is an nvarchar and the value is: "x567y"
What I want to extract is the two charachters after the parameter, in
this case "07".
Can anyone shed some light on this problem?
Thanks,

Looks like a combination of substring and charindex (or possibly
patindex) is what you need. I recommend that you use the SQL Server
Books Online to study all the string functions that SQL Server
offers. They are not that many, and not that extremely powerful, but
it's very useful to know them.

I figured out how to do this:
substring(mystr ing,charindex(@ parameter,myStr ing)+len(@param eter),2)
where @parameter = 'x' + [myUserID] + 'y'
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Hi all,
I want to create a stored procedure which will extract the "GroupName"
from the record returned by "sp_helpuser". In order to do this I need
to execute "sp_helpuser" which returns the entire record. I want to
just extract the "GroupName" from the record and return it to my
application. How do I go about this?
Thanks in advance,

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
