可能有点夸张，我经常使用这个UDF:

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[f_pad_before](@string VARCHAR(255), @desired_length INTEGER, @pad_character CHAR(1))
RETURNS VARCHAR(255) AS  
BEGIN

-- Prefix the required number of spaces to bulk up the string and then replace the spaces with the desired character
 RETURN ltrim(rtrim(
        CASE
          WHEN LEN(@string) < @desired_length
            THEN REPLACE(SPACE(@desired_length - LEN(@string)), ' ', @pad_character) + @string
          ELSE @string
        END
        ))
END

这样你就可以做这样的事情:

select dbo.f_pad_before('aaa', 10, '_')

我有一个函数lpad有x个小数 创建函数[dbo].[LPAD_DEC] （ ——在这里添加函数的参数 @pad nvarchar (MAX), @string nvarchar (MAX), @length int, @dec int ） 返回nvarchar (max) 作为 开始 ——在这里声明返回变量 声明@resp nvarchar(max)

IF LEN(@string)=@length
BEGIN
    IF CHARINDEX('.',@string)>0
    BEGIN
        SELECT @resp = CASE SIGN(@string)
            WHEN -1 THEN
                -- Nros negativos grandes con decimales
                concat('-',SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,@length-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec)))
            ELSE
                -- Nros positivos grandes con decimales
                concat(SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,@length-len(@string)),ltrim(str(@string,@length,@dec)))                  
            END
    END
    ELSE
    BEGIN
        SELECT @resp = CASE SIGN(@string)
            WHEN -1 THEN
                --Nros negativo grande sin decimales
                concat('-',SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,(@length-3)-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec)))
            ELSE
                -- Nros positivos grandes con decimales
                concat(SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,@length-len(@string)),ltrim(str(@string,@length,@dec)))                  
            END                     
    END
END
ELSE
    IF CHARINDEX('.',@string)>0
    BEGIN
        SELECT @resp =CASE SIGN(@string)
            WHEN -1 THEN
                -- Nros negativos con decimales
                concat('-',SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,@length-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec)))
            ELSE
                --Ntos positivos con decimales
                concat(SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,@length-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec))) 
            END
    END
    ELSE
    BEGIN
        SELECT @resp = CASE SIGN(@string)
            WHEN -1 THEN
                -- Nros Negativos sin decimales
                concat('-',SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length-3),1,(@length-3)-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec)))
            ELSE
                -- Nros Positivos sin decimales
                concat(SUBSTRING(replicate(@pad,@length),1,(@length-3)-len(@string)),ltrim(str(abs(@string),@length,@dec)))
            END
    END
RETURN @resp

END

有几个人给出了不同的版本:

right('XXXXXXXXXXXX'+ @str, @n)

要小心，因为如果它比n长，它会截断实际数据。

无论如何，这都是一种低效的SQL使用。

也许是这样的

right('XXXXXXXXXXXX'+ rtrim(@str), @n)

其中X是填充字符，@n是结果字符串中的字符数(假设您需要填充，因为您处理的是固定长度)。

但我说过，应该避免在数据库中这样做。

我喜欢vnRocks的解决方案，这里是一个udf的形式

create function PadLeft(
      @String varchar(8000)
     ,@NumChars int
     ,@PadChar char(1) = ' ')
returns varchar(8000)
as
begin
    return stuff(@String, 1, 0, replicate(@PadChar, @NumChars - len(@String)))
end

下面是我的解决方案，它避免了截断字符串并使用普通的SQL。感谢@AlexCuse， @Kevin和@Sklivvz，他们的解决方案是这段代码的基础。
