我把它放在调用PatIndex的两个地方。

PatIndex('%[^A-Za-z0-9]%', @Temp)

为上面的自定义函数RemoveNonAlphaCharacters并重命名为RemoveNonAlphaNumericCharacters

乔治·马斯特罗斯精彩回答的参数化版本:

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[fn_StripCharacters]
(
    @String NVARCHAR(MAX), 
    @MatchExpression VARCHAR(255)
)
RETURNS NVARCHAR(MAX)
AS
BEGIN
    SET @MatchExpression =  '%['+@MatchExpression+']%'
    
    WHILE PatIndex(@MatchExpression, @String) > 0
        SET @String = Stuff(@String, PatIndex(@MatchExpression, @String), 1, '')
    
    RETURN @String
    
END

字母只有:

SELECT dbo.fn_StripCharacters('a1!s2@d3#f4$', '^a-z')

数字只有:

SELECT dbo.fn_StripCharacters('a1!s2@d3#f4$', '^0-9')

字母数字只有:

SELECT dbo.fn_StripCharacters('a1!s2@d3#f4$', '^a-z0-9')

非字母数字：

SELECT dbo.fn_StripCharacters('a1!s2@d3#f4$', 'a-z0-9')

这是另一个递归CTE解决方案，基于@Gerhard Weiss的回答。您应该能够将整个代码块复制并粘贴到SSMS中，并在那里使用它。结果包括一些额外的列，以帮助我们理解发生了什么。我花了一段时间才理解了PATINDEX (RegEx)和递归CTE的全部原理。

DECLARE @DefineBadCharPattern varchar(30)
SET @DefineBadCharPattern = '%[^A-z]%'  --Means anything NOT between A and z characters (according to ascii char value) is "bad"
SET @DefineBadCharPattern = '%[^a-z0-9]%'  --Means anything NOT between a and z characters or numbers 0 through 9 (according to ascii char value) are "bad"
SET @DefineBadCharPattern = '%[^ -~]%'  --Means anything NOT between space and ~ characters (all non-printable characters) is "bad"
--Change @ReplaceBadCharWith to '' to strip "bad" characters from string
--Change to some character if you want to 'see' what's being replaced. NOTE: It must be allowed accoring to @DefineBadCharPattern above
DECLARE @ReplaceBadCharWith varchar(1) = '#'  --Change this to whatever you want to replace non-printable chars with 
IF patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, @ReplaceBadCharWith) > 0
    BEGIN
        RAISERROR('@ReplaceBadCharWith value (%s) must be a character allowed by PATINDEX pattern of %s',16,1,@ReplaceBadCharWith, @DefineBadCharPattern)
        RETURN
    END
--A table of values to play with:
DECLARE @temp TABLE (OriginalString varchar(100))
INSERT @temp SELECT ' 1hello' + char(13) + char(10) + 'there' + char(30) + char(9) + char(13) + char(10)
INSERT @temp SELECT '2hello' + char(30) + 'there' + char(30)
INSERT @temp SELECT ' 3hello there'
INSERT @temp SELECT ' tab' + char(9) + ' character'
INSERT @temp SELECT 'good bye'

--Let the magic begin:
;WITH recurse AS (
    select
    OriginalString,
    OriginalString as CleanString,
    patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, OriginalString) as [Position],
    substring(OriginalString,patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, OriginalString),1) as [InvalidCharacter],
    ascii(substring(OriginalString,patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN, OriginalString),1)) as [ASCIICode]
    from @temp
   UNION ALL
    select
    OriginalString,
    CONVERT(varchar(100),REPLACE(CleanString,InvalidCharacter,@ReplaceBadCharWith)),
    patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN,CleanString) as [Position],
    substring(CleanString,patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN,CleanString),1),
    ascii(substring(CleanString,patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN,CleanString),1))
    from recurse
    where patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN,CleanString) > 0
)
SELECT * FROM recurse
--optionally comment out this last WHERE clause to see more of what the recursion is doing:
WHERE patindex(@DefineBadCharPattern COLLATE Latin1_General_BIN,CleanString) = 0

使用CTE生成的数字表来检查每个字符，然后FOR XML连接到一个保留值的字符串，您可以…

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[PatRemove](
    @pattern varchar(50),
    @expression varchar(8000) 
    )
RETURNS varchar(8000)
AS
BEGIN
    WITH 
        d(d) AS (SELECT d FROM (VALUES (0),(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)) digits(d)),
        nums(n) AS (SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY (SELECT NULL)) FROM d d1, d d2, d d3, d d4),
        chars(c) AS (SELECT SUBSTRING(@expression, n, 1) FROM nums WHERE n <= LEN(@expression))
    SELECT 
        @expression = (SELECT c AS [text()] FROM chars WHERE c NOT LIKE @pattern FOR XML PATH(''));

    RETURN @expression;
END

下面是使用iTVF删除非字母字符的另一种方法。首先，需要一个基于模式的字符串分配器。以下是Dwain Camp文章中的一段:

-- PatternSplitCM will split a string based on a pattern of the form 
-- supported by LIKE and PATINDEX 
-- 
-- Created by: Chris Morris 12-Oct-2012 
CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[PatternSplitCM]
(
       @List                VARCHAR(8000) = NULL
       ,@Pattern            VARCHAR(50)
) RETURNS TABLE WITH SCHEMABINDING 
AS 

RETURN
    WITH numbers AS (
        SELECT TOP(ISNULL(DATALENGTH(@List), 0))
            n = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY (SELECT NULL))
        FROM
        (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) d (n),
        (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) e (n),
        (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) f (n),
        (VALUES (0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0),(0)) g (n)
    )

    SELECT
        ItemNumber = ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY MIN(n)),
        Item = SUBSTRING(@List,MIN(n),1+MAX(n)-MIN(n)),
        [Matched]
    FROM (
        SELECT n, y.[Matched], Grouper = n - ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY y.[Matched],n)
        FROM numbers
        CROSS APPLY (
            SELECT [Matched] = CASE WHEN SUBSTRING(@List,n,1) LIKE @Pattern THEN 1 ELSE 0 END
        ) y
    ) d
    GROUP BY [Matched], Grouper

现在你有了一个基于模式的拆分器，你需要拆分匹配模式的字符串:

[a-z]

然后将它们连接起来以得到想要的结果:

SELECT *
FROM tbl t
CROSS APPLY(
    SELECT Item + ''
    FROM dbo.PatternSplitCM(t.str, '[a-z]')
    WHERE Matched = 1
    ORDER BY ItemNumber
    FOR XML PATH('')
) x (a)

结果:

| Id |              str |              a |
|----|------------------|----------------|
|  1 |    test“te d'abc |     testtedabc |
|  2 |            anr¤a |           anra |

看过所有给出的解决方案后，我认为必须有一个纯SQL方法，它不需要函数或CTE / XML查询，并且不涉及难以维护的嵌套REPLACE语句。以下是我的解决方案:

SELECT 
  x
  ,CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 1, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 1, 1) END
    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 2, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 2, 1) END
    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 3, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 3, 1) END
    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 4, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 4, 1) END
    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 5, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 5, 1) END
    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, 6, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, 6, 1) END
-- Keep adding rows until you reach the column size 
    AS stripped_column
FROM (SELECT 
        column_to_strip AS x
        ,'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ' AS a 
      FROM my_table) a

这样做的好处是，有效字符包含在子查询中的一个字符串中，便于为不同的字符集重新配置。

缺点是您必须为每个字符添加一行SQL，直到您的列的大小。为了让这个任务更容易，我只是使用了下面的Powershell脚本，这个例子如果是VARCHAR(64):

1..64 | % {
  "    + CASE WHEN a NOT LIKE '%' + SUBSTRING(x, {0}, 1) + '%' THEN '' ELSE SUBSTRING(x, {0}, 1) END" -f $_
