Invoice ship to State and Country

Question

For a query I am doing, I need to be able to get the state and country out of the oinv.address2 field which stores the state and country as part of the complete address file.
For example:
121 Any Street Cleveland,OH 44111 USA
Is there a way of getting the state (OH) and USA
Has anyone done this?

Answer 1

The brackets are there because you wrote it there too
Without brackets is as
select
coalesce(
substring(
substring(address2,
charindex(',' ,address2, 0) + 1, len(address2)
), 0, charindex(' ', address2,0) - 1)
, '')   as state
from oinv
For country use
select
coalesce(
ltrim(substring(
substring(
substring(address2,
charindex(',' ,address2, 0) + 1, len(address2)
), 5, 100)
, charindex(' ',
substring(
substring(address2,
charindex(',' ,address2, 0) + 1, len(address2)
), 5, 100)
) ,100
, '')   as country
from oinv
