REGEXPR_SUBSTR returning too much data

I'm trying to use REGEXPR_SUBSTR to return ONLY the data after the = sign in my string. For example, the string is T34XH5=170. I only want 170. I can't figure out how to strip out the =. I have tried several iterations. My current one is:

REGEXP_SUBSTR('T34XH5=170','=[^FINAL]+')
What I get is =170. I just need 170. ?

I've also tried:
REGEXP_SUBSTR('T34XH5=170','=[^ ]') and get the same result.

My SQL skills are pretty remedial so I'm kind of grasping here.
Thanks!
M

Hiya,

Instr func should get you that, I do guess so....

Else give this a try,

SELECT SUBSTR('T34XH5=170.',8,12) FROM DUAL

Thanks,
RKO
