How UTF8 Data Stored
Feb 20, 2012
I am trying to store Chinese characters in certain fields in my database:
NLS_CHARACTERSET is UTF8
Version 11.2
Client NLS_LANG = UTF8
Client Region Settings = Simplified Chinese (PRC)
To Test - I have a string value I am trying to write to a field in Oracle. Looking at the source string with a hex editor, the multibyte value is E6 9C AC.
Looking the character up in UTF8 tables (U + 672C ) I can the symbol matches what I see when I look at the string with my editor.
I write the string to a field in Oracle. I can select from the field in SQLPlus and see the correct symbol.
However, when I dump the field I get the hex values B1,BE not E6 9C AC as I would expect.
explain why? And how is B1, BE getting translated back to the 'correct' symbol?

How to write code in unicode/utf8 and used non-english variable written in different cases?The compiler is supposed to be case-insensitive. I just wonder how it handles case insensitivity for unicode or ut8 encoding.

I have a problem spooling flat files in utf 8. I have 3 different sql that needs to be spooled regulary in utf8 format.the first two containing special chars is spooled without any problem, but the third that is containg only numbers and pipe-s is spooled in ansi format.
i have set nls_lang=.utf8 in my shell script, but that only worked at the first two sql the last doesnt work.
I have also tried to convert file using iconv command, but the output is still in ansi (only works if i put a special char in the ansi file then it converts to utf8 without problem) if i open the file in notepad and save as utf8 then it works, but i cannnot reach the same from unix script.

how to insert data in a table by deleting previous entered data and only inserting current data like:
CREATE TABLE test
(
name VARCHAR2(20),
id NUMBER
)
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('aaa',5500);
[code]....
I got two rows. now when I do insert statement I want to delete the previously stored data and only insert the current data like:
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('aaa',8);
INSERT INTO test VALUES ('aaa',9);
it must show aaa,8 and aaa,9 bt not the previous values.
NOTE: we can not do sth like: update set... where id = ... becoz the values are dynamic.

Users are reporting that are unable to use the NVARCHAR(4000) due to the character set which is set in the database.
Currently NLS_CHARACTERSET is set to AL32UTF8
and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET from AL16UTF16
They want me to change both the character set to UTF8, so that they can use the NVARCHAR2(4000) datatype in their tables.
As UTF8 is the subset characterset and I did the cs scan and this found characterset can't be modified to UTF8 and there may be the data dictionary corruption.
Is there any other way so that users can use the NVARCHAR(4000) as datatype. And the reason why NVARCHAR2 is required is, users are trying to import the data from other database which is using NVARCHAR(4000) as one of the field.

We got a big problem that we have a db link to connect to sql server(big 5).
In original setting, there is no Chinese characters in the data. We simply grab the data from sql server and do not have any issue. But now we have data with Big5. When we import the data into our Oracle DB, which uses UTF8, all the text becomes "?
Changing character set in DB is not possible. We need to convert the text into unicode format, or allow oracle/sql server to convert it automatically.

I am trying to name a column from data stored in a row (Phone number) I want to name it from the first 3 digits (Area code) and I have no clue how to do it I have googled but I think the query is a little too complicated for me to explain it and get a result from google or find it in a section of a book.
My phone numbers are strings, so I initially look for the first 3 characters and then start separating and counting, I can do that, the only problem I have is naming the column WITH the the first three digits that I just separated.

My phone numbers are strings, so I initially look for the first 3 characters and then start separating and counting, I can do that, the only problem I have is naming the column WITH the the first three digits that I just separated.
I am trying to learn by myself how to use databases and am using the HR database that comes in oracle since I read in a forum that it is a great way to learn how to use queries.
I read about using Pivot to do it, but in pivot I need to know how many area codes there are. I will post a screen shot of the table that I am working on the other post
[URL].....
I can group by phone number with this:
SELECT SUBSTR(PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3) AREA, COUNT(SUBSTR(PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3)) TOTAL_COUNT
FROM EMPLOYEES
GROUP BY SUBSTR(PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3);
But what I am interested in doing is that instead of Area appearing as a column, that the actual first 3 digits would appear as the column name.
This is kind of what I am trying to do, but instead of AREA appearing as column name I would like for each one of the area codes to appear as column name, here is the
SELECT DE.DEPARTMENT_NAME, EM.SEX, SUBSTR(EM.PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3) AREA, COUNT(SUBSTR(EM.PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3)) TOTAL_COUNT FROM EMPLOYEES EM, DEPARTMENTS DE WHERE DE.DEPARTMENT_ID = EM.DEPARTMENT_ID GROUP BY DEPARTMENT_NAME, EM.SEX, SUBSTR(PHONE_NUMBER, 1, 3) ORDER BY DEPARTMENT_NAME;

I work on a client-server application, where users need to be able to run rather complex queries.
We currently have most of the queries defined in views on the Oracle database server and the client application simply downloads the data (i.e. SELECT * from example_view). This is good for us as we can maintain these queries without releasing new versions of the client tool.
However we have some queries implemented by a colleague that have caused a lot of trouble (efficiency and quality) and these are stored client-side.
The issue I have is that these client side queries can return records in different units (i.e. in standard cubic metres, or barrels of oil etc), as the SQL is defined at runtime on the client, and I want to know the best way to replicate this with SQL stored server-side.
The client-side SQL has column definitions such as: SELECT oil_production * decode(&unit,'Nm3',.948,'Sm3',1,'MMBOE',6.0924,1) ... The &unit parameter is then replaced by the appropriate text (i.e. 'Sm3') before the query is sent to Oracle.
Is there anyway to pass variables to server-side SQL and get a recordset back? I don't think PL/SQL procedures can do this? and views can't contain bind variables.

Oracle database version is : 10G.
When we try to query a column from a table the output is shown as "?????". Seems the data in that column is stored in a different character set, which is not recognised while displaying the output. The column size is 35byte.
The nls parameter table shows the character set as "we8mswin1252".
get this issue resolved.

The following code is a stored procedure I plan to use to populate a Data Warehouse dimension using data from two OLTP tables which already exist in my database. Notice that in my cursor select statement, I calculate an attribute using substr and instr, and I also assign a true or false value to a flag using a CASE statement.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE populate_product_dimension
AS
v_Count NUMBER := 0;
v_NumRecs NUMBER;
/*Declare a cursor on the following query which returns mulitple rows of data from product and price_hist tables*/
[code]....
In my mind, Product_Code is declared correctly in the Cursor declaration Select statement.

I am using:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 : VB Express
Microsoft .NET Framework : Version 4.0.30319 RTMRel
When I populate dataset using select query and use OracleCommandBuilder and update dataadapter, data is saved in database.
But if I put same select in store procedure and use this to populate dataset then data is not updated in db.
I get this error
Update requires a valid UpdateCommand when passed DataRow collection with modified rows.
at da1.Update(ds1, "req") where I am going wrong.
Dim conn As New OracleConnection
Dim da1 As OracleDataAdapter = New OracleDataAdapter
Dim ds1 = New DataSet
With conn
If .State = ConnectionState.Open Then .Close()

INSERT INTO test('ABC');
INSERT INTO test(SYSDATE);
INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY'));
INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
