suggest to get the euro symbol.
I am using oracle 9.2.0.6.0 on HP-UX.
I am unable to insert and even display euro symbol from server as well as windows client.
Following are the details of my database server

1) When I try to insert € from Db server (using putty) using Alt+0128 it does not print anything (nothing gets typed on the screen). Not even junk characters Also following query does not print anything
SQL> select chr(128) from dual;
C

2) while I set NLS_LANG on client and try to insert €, Alt+0128 produces a question mark symbol And following query displays junk character
SQL> select chr(128) from dual;

Ç
3) Regardless when I inserted couple of rows and tried UNISTR following was the result
SQL> select unistr(v) from t;

When I click on a column header, e.g order by, does the query execute again with "order by" clause or use the same execution plan and give me fast result?

I need to split a column into multiple columns. The data in my column is separated by a Comma (,). But the data is dynamic and I could have any number of data separated by (,).

If COL1 contains

I would like to spool a clob column to a flag file, however some of the clob are greater than 32k, and I have to have the same record in a single line in the file. Is there any way to achieve this through spooling?

set term off

View 18 Replies View RelatedI have extracted data from table and write into one text via sqlplus utility in shell scripts. i got correct output. i am having two issues on the output file
1) Outfile file size is huge high compare then table segment data.
2) last column having extra space.
The output column is clob datatype. so i have added set long 50000 and set longchunksize 50000 parameter. after adding these only i got above issues. without two options, i am not getting this isssue but lines are wrapped.

I am trying to ultimately as the title says separate a user input list into one column of entries. I am doing this through Cognos not a normal SQL editor which is what makes this a little harder to do. So far I have gotten that in general I can use the
SELECT 'First Entry' Asset FROM Dual Union
SELECT 'Second Entry' Asset FROM Dual Union
SELECT 'Third Entry' Asset FROM Dual
and this will give me 3 entries of data in one column. More can be added as long as the last statement doesn't have the union on it. So, the next step it would seem is to have a for loop combined with an if then or case statement that would find the number of entries and loop until we reach the number of entries and give me either SELECT 'First Entry' Asset FROM Dual Union or SELECT 'First Entry' Asset FROM Dual if we are on the last entry. I don't know the lingo to do this though. I have tried to get this to work with a simple test like cat, dog, horse, cow, pig, etc but it's frustrating that I can't get it to work. I can do all the individual steps I just can't seem to get it to work together. I have all the functions I need, I just need to the syntext to do a for loop along with an if then or case statement where the outcome is a valid select statement.
Now i have a problem which i am facing for the first time. The problem is:
I have created a table test1 with two column of number data type and the column witdth is 25. Then enter the data but when i select the recrod it does not display the column data as it was entered.
SQL> create table test1
2 (
3 startno number(25),
4 endno number(25)
5 );
Table created.
SQL> insert into test1

when i'm saving the result in excel sheet....results are saving but unable to paste column / header names.

is there any way to force SQL*Plus to provide the actual line number in the source file whenever there is an error? I often put at the first line of my script SET SQLBLANKLINES ON so that I may be able to put several consecutive blank lines lines in my code (I do this sometimes, when I find it to be appropriate in order to make my code more readable or to group a sequence of instructions which I believe make their logical link more understandable for the reader) Now the problem is that SQL*Plus ignores these blank lines and whenever there is an error, the line number provided in the error message, doesn't correspond to the actual line number in the source file but it seems to be the last non blank line in the file. Consider the following example:
SET SQLBLANKLINES ON;DECLARE var PLS_INTEGER := 10;BEGIN var := 20END;/ In the above code at line 9
(by counting also the blank lines) there is an error (no semicolon at the end of var := 20) but when I run the script inSQL*Plus here is the error message that I get
SQL> @myscript.sql;END;*ERROR at line 8:ORA-06550: line 8, column 1:PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "END"
when expecting one of the following:* & = - + ; < / > at in is mod remainder not rem<an exponent (**)> <> or != or ~= >= <= <> and or like like2like4 likec between || multiset member submultisetThe symbol ";" was substituted for "END" to continue.SQL> So as you can see the error message indicate that the error was found at the line 8 whereas in the file it is really at the line 9 As long as the number of lines in the script is limited, this may not be a problem and one can find rapidly the actual line number in the code raising the error but for a code including hundreds (or even thousands) of lines and with many comments and blank lines, finding the actual line number given by SQL*Plus error message becomes tricky. Is there any way to make SQ*LPlus trace correctly the line numbers as they appear in the source file?
which are recommended Tool for load testing (for performance) on Oracle-J2EE, 3 Tier applications?
Is 'Oracle Application Test Suite' the best for such test where we can simulate numbers of users and their various actions?
Does it come with Oracle Database license or we have to buy it separately?
I'm looking for 3 simple things.
1) A reverse engineering tool that I can point to an Oracle schema and get a "baseline" script to re-create that schema from scratch, with decently formatted DDL files (1 per object) neatly organized in a directory tree (by object type) and called in the correct order. Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to populate (insert) those tables as part of the script.
2) a diff tool that I can point to a pair of Oracle instances (source and target) containing a given schema and get a "delta" script to alter the target schema so that it becomes identical to the source schema. If data loss occurs on the target instance (i.e. drop a column) I would like to find a warning comment inserted in the script (e.g. "-- Attention: data migration DML needed here?"). Icing on the cake would be an option to pass the tool a list of tables containing static data and get DMLs to update (delete, update and insert) the data in the target tables to become identical to the contents in the source tables *without* deleting and re-inserting all rows (or dropping, recreating and repopulating the table).
3) I would like the above two tools (that, as you will have recognized, are basic to putting your database design under version control) to be open-source, with a command-line interface and a vibrant community backing them.
The problem is that this connection errors when I try to connect using my SQuirreL client. My developers want to connecting using the SID or the SERVICE_NAME and by using the "New Method" syntax, not the "Old Method" syntax. According to the documentation the "New Method" syntax works with the SERVICE_NAME or the SID. The "Old Method" only works with the SID.

can we use oracle client version to create a database in that server.
