Re: How to get the dollar value from this text string? -- MIDRANGE-L

Agreed Jon, I think I will challenge Birgita on that one:

Here i my one-liner solution: Remove any characters until the last blank,
Picup the number and remove the filal ~

**free

dcl-s instr varchar(256);

dcl-s dolar packed( 15: 2);

inStr = 'NTE*OTH*#OH- HANDLING CHARGES GSYE9R03/WHT/ / 4T/-
2.29~';

exec sql values rtrim(regexp_replace (:instr, '.* '),'~') into
:dolar;

return;

If you do have regex setup and working from sql on your box, then this
little quick and dirty program extracts everything after the last space.
That includes that ~ but you can remove that.

**Free
Dcl-s V1 Char(100);
Dcl-s Result Char(10);
V1 = 'NTE*OTH*#OH- HANDLING CHARGES GAZE9H01/MNT/ / 6/- 3.36~';

Exec Sql Select Regexp_Substr(
Trim(:V1),
'[\S]+$')
Into :Result
From sysibm.sysdummy1;

Dsply Result;
*Inlr = *On;
Return;

the regex for that is something like

.*(\d*\.\d\d).*

when $1 will be your dollar figure.
