I have to load a fixed width file using sql loader utility. But the records have multiple special characters. writing / modifying the loader utility to load the data.
--Script to create the table create table t1 ( ip1 varchar2(2), ip2 number, ip3 number);
--loader utility LOAD DATA INFILE 'c:inputfile.dat' BADFILE 'c:adfile.bad' REPLACE INTO TABLE t1 FIELDS TERMINATED BY '' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '°' ( ip1POSITION(1:2) CHAR, ip2POSITION(3:17) INTEGER EXTERNAL ":ip2/100", ip3POSITION(18:32) INTEGER EXTERNAL ":ip3/100", )
--sql version i am using SQL*Loader: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Wed Mar 7 18:32:33 2012 Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
In the above mentioned data file, records has multiple special characters like '°','¶' ,'-'. All these special characters have some meaning. eg: '°' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -1 '¶' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -0.1
what changes need to be made in loader utility for the same? Also, will there be any change in the utility if I am using higher version of oracle?

I have a database in my local machine that doesn't support Turkish characters. My NLS_CHARACTERSET is WE8ISO8859P1, It must be changed to WE8ISO8859P9 , since it supports full Turkish characters. I would like to migrate character data using a full export and import and my strategy is as follows:
1- create a full export to a location in network,
2- create a new database in local machine that it's NLS_CHARACTERSET is WE8ISO8859P9 (I would like to change NLS_LANGUAGE and NLS_TERRITORY by the way)
3- and implement full import to newly created database. I 've implemented first step, but I couldn't implement the second step. I 've created the second step by using toad editor by clicking Create -> New Database but I can not connect the new database. I must connect new database in order to perform full import.

All NLS parameters are same in both source and target database

export data program "ociuldr" can not run in 64bits win2008 environment. Where can i download 64 bit version of "ociuldr" program. I have read some article . The article mention that the export data program ociuldr.exe need to recompile into 64 bits version. Finally I also want to ask the import data program sql loader "sqlldr.exe".

how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE; SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA; SQL> STARTUP MOUNT; SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION; SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN; SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252; SQL> SHUTDOWN; SQL> STARTUP; SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?

I need to export only the data from schemas or tables, how to do that with Oracle Data Pump? when we use schemas parameter this export all schema, not only the data right?
We are exporting from a 9i db to an 11g. During the migration, we are changing our character set from USASCII7 to AL32UTF8 so that the "extended" characters that our users like to put in text fields are stored and retrieved properly.
However, we've found a problem, and i'm not sure if Oracle has a method of dealing with. Searching this site and Oracle docs got me nowhere.
We store account #'s and credit card info in the DB encrypted with the dbms_obsfucation_tookit. We have an encryption key cross reference table that we use to store the key to un encrypt the data.
However, what we've found is that by importing these keys into our new character set database, the keys are no longer valid and can't be used with the DES3DECRYPT function to get the correct numbers out.
Is there a conversion utility or any tool that Oracle provides to maintain the encrypted datas "decrypt ability"? Worse comes to worse, we will have to write a script/procedure to decrypt everything on the 9i, import it to 11g, and then re-encrypt it.
I have created and formatted a mini test scenario. Execute the scripts I have below?
From the column adj_second_line, I am trying to clip everything from the characters '201' all the way to the end...or the NUMERIC start value after the word 'TYPE'. Whichever way is easier for you...

There is table (VIN_TEMP) in my company database containing following records. It seems like this table should contain some greek language special chracter values instead of this weird data.
Client are reporting these records as invalid and requesting us to fix. As i investigated i found out, this table was created and loaded few year back. Client sent us one time files which we loaded into this table. I was able to find the code which was actually used to load this table, but unfortunately i was not able to find the raw files where we load this data from...
It seems like Previous Developer specified character set "UTF8" statement, in his sql loader script, to load this data. It seem those file contain some Greek language special character data which was not support by "UTF8" charater set and result in creating those invalid data. My Job is to fix these invalid records and convert them back to its original values which were present in the raw file. I tried to contact client and see if i can find out the raw files but no luck. I tried to use convert function as mention to convert this data from "UTF8" to our current character set format but no luck.
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".
we have a Oracle 11g database, but it does not support UTF8 character set. Now we have received a file which contains records with Trade Mark symbol (special character). Now when we are trying to load the record, it is getting loaded with a sign "?". As a result when we try to display record in web application, the application is not able to show the records properly.
