yes David gave correct solution
but , the value I'm using and it's column in the table sometimes value
may be '123-987-123' or '123-987-123-13-87'
if pass like below must return else condiion 0,
select case when select split_part('123-987-123','-',4) >0
then 1 else 0 end
it's return error like integer need...
