    Interesting.  I was not aware of that quirk of PARSENAME.

    SELECT PARSENAME(LTRIM(RTRIM(REPLACE(REPLACE(REPLACE(@statement, CHAR(9), ''), CHAR(10), ''), CHAR(13), ''))), 1)

    Use: SELECT PARSENAME(@statement, 1), viz.:

    declare @statement varchar(100) = '[dbo].[vw_EmployeeData]'
    SELECT PARSENAME(@statement, 1)

    set @statement = 'dbo.Employee'
    SELECT PARSENAME(@statement, 1)

  • Reply To: Split a given number in Percentages and round to integer

    If you rounded the numbers, it seems like you'd end up with 296, 4, 1:

    SELECT 300*.986, 300*.012, 300*.002 --295.800, 3.600, 0.600

    The first round up seems clearest, so 296.  You'd have...

    The patient's name is not present anywhere.  That is, there's no way to know who patient "A", let alone to know what doctor(s) he/she saw.

  • Reply To: best way to extract name and number

    I wouldn't go thru all those gyrations to pull out the values.  Imagine the hassle to just add one more column to the output.

    I'd do something similar to this instead.
