Domanda
I have a column NAME
It must contain only characters and not numbers
How do I use CHECK condition:
CHECK(NAME NOT LIKE '%[0-9]%')
or any other method...
edit: Oracle database is used.
Soluzione
You didn't state your DBMS so I'm assuming PostgreSQL
CHECK(name ~ '^[^0-9]*$')
Altri suggerimenti
Double negative Should be standard (not MySQL though) because it uses LIKE:
CHECK(NAME NOT LIKE '%[^a-zA-Z]%')
