Optimizing SQL Server Code: Moving COALESCE Inside Query and Adding Loop Break Conditions
To answer your original problem, you need to modify the way you’re using COALESCE in SQL Server. Instead of trying to use it outside of the query like this: SET @LastIndexOfChar = COALESCE(SELECT MIN(LastIndexOfChar) FROM @TempTable WHERE LastIndexOfChar > 0),0) You should move the COALESCE function inside the query, like this: SET @LastIndexOfChar = (SELECT COALESCE(MIN(LastIndexOfChar),0) FROM @TempTable WHERE LastIndexOfChar > 0) Additionally, you need to add an IF statement to break out of the loop if the length of the string between characters exceeds 500:
