File Extension

Posted on October 17, 2013October 26, 2015 By David Kittell

If you are working in a database that has asset/file storage and need to get just the extension of the column this query will help save time.

SELECT CASE
		WHEN filepath LIKE '%.%'
			THEN RIGHT(filepath, Len(filepath) - Charindex('.', filepath))
		ELSE filepath
		END FilePath
FROM tbl1
