Hi SQLiters,
I am trying to clean up some text in a database that has some weird
non-printable unicode characters.
For instance:
.mode insert
select distinct Name, length (Name), substr(Name,-1,1) from My Table
gives:
INSERT INTO table VALUES('Roundup Ready®',15,'')
As you can see, the
I've tried:
replace(Name, x'f87f', '') but it doesn't seem to match the weird character.
Any ideas?
I guess x'f87f' will match your character only if your database is in
UTF-16. For UTF-8 you probably should try x'efa1bf'. And maybe
explicit conversion to text is needed.
