Home Articles Transact SQL Programming Articles SQL Server Help: Extracting Substrings From Strings in Transact-SQL The Transact SQL Substring function can be used to extract a sub-string from a string. The function requires three arguments: The string from which the substring should be extracted The position of the first character in the substring (1 is the first character) The length of the substring required. The example below for the Northwind sample SQL Server database uses the substring function to create a ProductCode column from the first three characters of the ProductName column: SELECT ProductName, SUBSTRING(ProductName, 1, 3) AS ProductCode FROM Products Useful Links The SQL Documentation Tool builds technical documentation for Microsoft SQL Server databases.
