Address column split and case when statements
I'm currently using the following statement to split address columns
SUBSTR(STREET, 1, INSTR(STREET, ' ')-1) AS HouseNumber,
SUBSTR(STREET, INSTR(STREET, ' ')+1) AS Street,
In this case, 50 Main St is split into two columns
50, Main St
Is it possible to add a third column to split letters out from the house number?
In this case 50D Main St is out put like 50,D,Main St AND 50 Main St would be output like 50,,Main St
I also need to strip leading spaces from the Street after the split or replace instances of more than one space with a single space prior to the split
Last, if I have an House_Number values of
100
200
50
How can I sort them in order so 50 comes before 100 opposed to after 200?
Thanks!!!

Already done :-)
The examples I provided are a the only factors that need to be accounted for

Try this
select regexp_substr(street,'^[0-
trim(regexp_substr(street,
trim(regexp_substr(street,
from some_table
/
select regexp_substr(street,'^[0-
trim(regexp_substr(street,
trim(regexp_substr(street,
from some_table
/

If no letter exists after the number but before the space, it outputs the first word in the street name opposed to null
Doesn't sort column1 as noted

Looks really good.
Only think missing is accounting for and removing leading spaces from Col3
They still exist which pushes street names with leading spaces up to the top of the column.

Just add the TRIM to the columns that need them. I forgot to add them back to my test case on my latest post.

With cte as
(select
SUBSTR(STREET, 1, INSTR(STREET, ' ')-1) AS housenumber,
SUBSTR(STREET, INSTR(STREET, ' ')+1) AS Street
from yourtable)
select trim(regexp_substr(housenu
trim(regexp_substr(housenu
trim(street) as street
from cte
order by to_number(housenumber);
(select
SUBSTR(STREET, 1, INSTR(STREET, ' ')-1) AS housenumber,
SUBSTR(STREET, INSTR(STREET, ' ')+1) AS Street
from yourtable)
select trim(regexp_substr(housenu
trim(regexp_substr(housenu
trim(street) as street
from cte
order by to_number(housenumber);
Whoa, sorry. I'm way behind. Spent too much time typing and testing along with outside interference :-)

Works with the trim's! Thanks again for your time!!!
See if you have anything like:
123D-45 Main Street
Apt 1 Main St
etc...
Then give us the expected results from them.
