I am trying to make a select statement that compares the field to a value that is only alpha characters so here is the example This is the value in the database: $%ABC_abc-123(abc) This is the value that I want to use to match that value: abcabcabc
I tried using regexp_replace but it did not work the way I expected. select * from table where lower(regexp(fieldname, '[\d_\W]*', '')) = 'abcabcabc' this regular expression works in C# but not in PostgreSQL any suggestions -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Select-statement-compare-only-alpha-characters-tp16178846p16178846.html Sent from the PostGIS - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ postgis-users mailing list [email protected] http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users
