Hello!
I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2005
I have a table like this:

SQL

QueueNo
 3B001
 3B002  
 3B003
   .
   .
   .
 3B010

Is there a way to get the last number of the QueueNo?
Something like this:

PHP

QueueNo   No
 3B001    1
 3B002    2
 3B003    3
   .      .
   .      .
   .      .
 3B010    10

Really need to figure this one out.
Thanks in advance! :)

Then try the below.

declare @test table
(QueueNo varchar (30))

Insert into @test values ('3B001')
Insert into @test values ('3B002')
Insert into @test values ('3B003')
Insert into @test values ('3B004')
Insert into @test values ('3B005')
Insert into @test values ('3B006')
Insert into @test values ('3B007')
Insert into @test values ('3B008')
Insert into @test values ('3B009')
Insert into @test values ('3B010')

Select * from @test

select Max (Queueno) 'Max Queueno', CAST( RIGHT (Max (Queueno),3)as int) 'Max last number' from @test

Solution 4

Have a look at example:

SQL

SELECT Code, CONVERT(INT,Right(Code,3)) AS CodeNo
FROM (
    SELECT '3B010' AS Code
    UNION ALL
    SELECT '3B001' AS Code
) AS T

Returns:

3B010	10
3B001	1
