mid |
Extracts a substring from a string, from the position specified by beginIndex. The count parameter specifies the number of characters to be extracted. If the count is not provided, this function extracts the substring from the position specified by beginIndex to the end. Example:
|
SQLike.mid(String instr,int beginIndex,[int count]) |
mid_index |
Extracts a substring from a string. If count is positive, the left most substring that contains count-1 delimiters is returned; if count is negative, the right most substring that contains -count-1 delimiters is returned. Example 1:
Example 2:

SQLike.mid_index(String instr,String delimiter,int count) |
