Hello, I am an idiot when it comes to VBA. With that being said, I could use some help. There is some VBA I'd like to convert to a T SQL function and I am certain there are many people that could do such a thing quickly.Thanks for any assistance.
Public Function GetType(strNumber As String) As String
Dim intPos
For intPos = 1 To Len(strNumber)
If IsNumeric(Mid(strNumber, intPos, 1)) Then
Exit For
End If
Next
GetType = Trim(Left(strNumber, intPos - 1))
End Function
Does this just return the first x characters before it encounters a number?
