    The document discusses how to use single-row functions in SQL to customize output. Some key functions mentioned are SUBSTR and INSTR, which can be used to extract portions of a string. Nested functions allow splitting a string into multiple segments, such as extracting the first, middle, and last names from a full name field. Case functions like UPPER can also modify string values. Overall, the document provides examples of how SQL functions can manipulate string data for custom reporting needs.

    Nested function example: split string into 3 segments

    xxxxxx
    String
    space1 xxxxxxxxxxxxx space2 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    • Segment 1= xxxxxx
    SUBSTR(‘String’,1,INSTR(‘String',’ ‘ ,1,1)-1 ) FIRST_NAME

    • Segment 2= xxxxxxxxxxxxx
    SUBSTR(‘string', INSTR(‘string ',’ ‘,1,1)+1,
    INSTR(‘string’,’ ‘,1,2)-INSTR(‘string’,’ ‘,1,1) -1) MIDDLE_NAME

    • Segment 3= xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    SUBSTR(‘string', INSTR(‘string',’ ‘,1,2)+1) last_name
