Fetch middle part of a string surrounded by slash in MySQL

Let us first create a table −

mysql> create table DemoTable    -> (    -> Code varchar(100)    -> ); Query OK, 0 rows affected (1.07 sec)

Insert some records in the table using insert command −

mysql> insert into DemoTable values('/101/102/106'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('/110/111/101'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.14 sec) mysql> insert into DemoTable values('/111/114/201'); Query OK, 1 row affected (0.47 sec)

Display all records from the table using select statement −

mysql> select *from DemoTable;

This will produce the following output −

+--------------+ | Code         | +--------------+ | /101/102/106 | | /110/111/101 | | /111/114/201 | +--------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)

Here is the query to retrieve the middle string surrounded by slash −

mysql− select SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(Code,'/',3),'/',-1) from DemoTable;

Output

This will produce the following output −

+-----------------------------------------------------+ | SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(Code,'/',3),'/',-1) | +-----------------------------------------------------+ | 102                                                 | | 111                                               | | 114 | +-----------------------------------------------------+ 3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
