Forms :: Configurations (date Format) Not Working In Oracle
Sep 20, 2011
I have been developing and oracle application therefore i have installed the oracle express edition 10g database software and the oracle developer 10g. I did some changes in sql*plus i mean i have changed the language(through 'nls_lang' to Arabic), i made a autonumber trigger, i changed the calender format (through 'alter_session...'), now all the changes are working fine from the oracle sql*plus but as i am running my form from form builder none of those changes are working.
i thought the oracle form and sql*plus don't have such link..i can add the tables i have created in sql*plus into the form.
A field named xxx_date is a text item which we have to enter manually so as to update a record in that particular date. This is a mandatory field without which we cannot continue the data entry..
I am getting this error while trying to update the record
FRM-40509 :Oracle error :unable to update record
I have kept the enabled = yes required=no data type=Date.. in the property pallet
Im trying to display a word file from a blob column of table in reports 11g . In reports 6i OLE2 file format was available for that, but in 11g it became obsolete.
I tried to insert date in date column from another table date column. Below is SP ans execute procedure.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test( start_time Varchar ) AS BEGIN DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE(1000000); DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(start_time); Insert into test_ora (report_date) (select start_time from
qry:= 'to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mon-yy')< sysdate'; or qry:= 'debtodt < to_char(sysdate, 'dd-mm-yyyy'); or qry:= 'to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mon-yy')< to_date(sysdate, 'dd-mm-yy')'
all these are showing error in oracle form.
in database debtodt is in char format , calculating from-- TO_CHAR(add_months(b.FRMDT,b.period)-1,'dd-mm-yyyy')
and also in oracle form it is char,thats why i am changing it either debtodt into date format or sysdate into char format. but it is showing error as: encountered the symbol "DD" when expecting one of these.................
the same query
select * from debar_reg_vu where to_date(debtodt, 'dd-mm-yyyy')<sysdate;
In 10G forms the date format mask in all the items in forms are removed.
As the nls_date_format in database is (dd-mon-rr) the same is expected to come in Oracle 10G forms. Now it is coming as (DD-MON-YYYY) in 10G forms. I tried looking into the nls_session_date format in runtime in forms it is showing as (dd-mon-rr) but in item it displays as(DD-MON-YYYY). How will i display the date format set in the DB or were is the setting done in Oracle 10G forms.
i have create one standard Calender from that i pickup month date and year separately like 2/6/1987 now i want to convert it into standard date format how to convert it and pass to another block....
We have one issue in my implementaion i am a ORACLE DBA support multiple database across different countries,We hosted one database in Location eg:Dennmark my problem is our client connect to database(Located in Dennmark) through VPN in different country eg Dubai,India,Finland.We need to setup a client PC to print database reports,forms based on LOCAL NLS-date and timing, should print local time,date not database server date. set date format, and timezone based on client environment instead database timezone where it located at Denmark.
i have changed date's format and the calendar type in sqlplus through the following command so the date's format and the calender type both changed successfully and work, but in oracle form the they haven't changed.
alter session set nls_calendar='persian';
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY/MM/DD';
ALTER SYSTEM SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY/MM/DD' SCOPE=SPFILE;
Note: i know session would change the format temporally but i want to change it permanently so i tried alter_system but still no result
When I run a query form the the Query Window in Visuial Studios 2012 all the date fields truncated to 'mm/dd/yyyy', but i need the full date returned. I am able to get full date from TO_char(MyDateField, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss'), but if I do TO_DATE(MyDateField, 'yyyy-mm-dd hh24:mi:ss') it only returns 'mm/dd/yyyy'. I'm sure this is a simple setting in Visual studios but I cant find it to save my life. Is there there a way to have the full date returned by default?
I want to reset my date to this format: 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM - see code below:
DECLARE v_latest_close DATE; BEGIN v_latest_close := TO_DATE ('12/31/2012 23:59:59 ','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'); DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('The new date format is : '|| v_latest_close); END;
the code above displays only : 12/31/2012 instead of 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM
whenever i double-click on the Canvass node of Forms builder, it displays the "Working..." status on the lower left corner, then after a minute or so, the following message appears: -- "Oracle Forms Designer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.If you where in the middle of something, the information you were working on might be lost.
Send Error Report / Don't Send" -- after clicking on the Don't Send button, the builder will close down. i just installed oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) database and 6i developer which i downloaded from oracle website.
i want to use oracle translation builder to translate forms and reports from English into Arabic i run run the script SQLBLD and create new db connection an finally create a new project when am trying to import module i got the error NX-00201
I have an application server on windows 2003 server. Now i have one Mac Book and i want to use the application in that. I have searched and find that i have to change in formsweb.cfg. I have made the changes according to that but my screen is coming blank only. I have change the formsweb.cfg like this
I have an oracle application (Froms 6i) that is being accessed from a PC client running Windows 7 Professional. Whenever I try to access the the application I get a "Oracle Forms Runform has stopped working" error. I tried installing the runtime over and over again withn no use. This is not the first problem I encounter with "Windows 7- Oracle 6i" combination.
In one of the query used like below is it correct or any need to be correct for date format? currently it's returning two tyoe of sets 1.NUll 2.01-JAN-00
SELECT withdrawn_date FROM csd where NVL(csd.withdrawn_date,'01-JAN-1900') = '01-JAN-1900';
I have a simple question, hope it has a simple answer. I changed the default date format for a SCHEMA using a TRIGGER and AFTER LOGON, so it set the NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'. It does work fine, however, the problem is when I connect using a client with JDBC driver. When using SQL PLUS I get the date in the format specified above YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS, however, when using a client (Aqua Data 6.5.8 I know it is kinda old) and SQuirrel SQL 3.4.0 I always get the date in the YYYY-MM-DD format. I started to think that the issue is with the JDBC because it works fine when I connect with SQLPLUS.
follwing is my structure and data in table. COLA has datatype varchar2.data in table is date..... now i want to convert all the dates in 'yyyymmdd' format.
IS it possible?
SQL> select * from taba;
COLA --------------- 1944-02-10 1982-07-20 08/24/1974 03/14/1957 22-Nov-79
While am working with Decode just found something, why it is returning like this.
I Ran this query where i have used all the date format as DD/MM/YYYY SELECT DECODE(TO_DATE('25/04/2001','DD/MM/YYYY') , TO_DATE('01/01/1900','DD/MM/YYYY'), NULL , TO_DATE('25/04/2001','DD/MM/YYYY')) TEST FROM DUAL
Quote: TEST ------------- 25-APR-01
But the resule i got in DD-MON-YY
i tried searching this forum with searching strings Decode date format.. or similer i found nothing.
I am getting daily basis data from third party in excel format which i am converting into CSV format and then uploading into oracle tables using External tables.Now problem is that every time i getting the dates in diff format i.e. sometimes dd-mon-yyyy , dd/mm/yyyy etc.
Now every time i have to open my code and change it there ...to make it as oracle date format. IS there way i can find out format of date and based on format i can do operations with getting errors every time.
I am storing the TP(Excel date) date into varchar columns only and then varchar2 column value i m inserting/updating into date format using to_Date ().
