how to select alphabets in a one column , for this the table name is PA_TASKS and column name is ..

Answer / hitendra yadav

Dear friend
,
you can use this select statement:-

select trim(translate(TASK_NUMBER,'.0123456789',' ')) from
PA_TASKS;
For example:-
select trim(translate('1.1.3NN','.0123456789',' ')) from
dual;

it will give NN as output

if value format same like this then you can use substr
function also for it like this:-
select substr(TASK_NUMBER,-2) from PA_TASKS ;
For example:-

select substr('1.1.3NN',-2) from dual;

it will give NN as answer.
