Forms :: How To Use Pattern Matching In Text_IO Package
Jan 22, 2010
I have a requirement which is as follows.A file will be downloaded into a server every day at 2 A.M. The name of the file would be 'BB90170_sysdate_D'. I need to refer to this file everyday since everyday the data changes.How do i identify which is the latest file in the server folder using Forms 6i code. Means while i have tried this
'' in_file :=Text_IO.Fopen ('C:TIESPartprocurementBB90170_'||part_date,'r')". How to use pattern matching in Text_io.fopen. Part_date in refers to sysdate without Timestamp.
I am using 11.2.0.3.0 version of oracle. I have not worked on regular expressions. During working on sql injection, I got set of below patterns which is feeded to some JAVA regx classes or utilityto restrict selective Request, based on patterns.below patterns and the characters which will be restricted by this pattern matching utility.
I am trying to write a pl/sql script where i need to check pattern matching numbers.My database is oracle 10g and i will put this logic in a procedure.i will pass no of tel_no to get.
if the no is 3 then i need 2072860126, 2072860127 and 2072860128(i.e all 3 in sequence) if 2 then 2072860126, 2072860127. as such..the selected nos must be in sequence.
A query returns list od tel nos. in that tel i need to choose which staisfy my criteria.
When I used to work with foxpro we had used dot matrix printer. At that time if we want, we can print in normal mode, expanded mode and compressed mode. it will be part of your spool file.
Now am printing a text file from forms using text_io package. I would like to know in this how do i print the content in compressed mode using CHR function or some other method.
We create a form on 6i then deploye it on our Oracle apps Server with EBS and forms 11i Linux based. I want to create a form using form 6i which read a text file from client side and insert data into table i try text_io function but its not working after deployed on server and also try webutil function but its not working with oracle forms 6i.
Is there a method or a tool out there that can do a search through an Oracle Schema to find objects ( tables, fields, stored procedures, etc) containing a specified character pattern ? For example : I would like to return all of the tables that contain fields containing the character string "ABC"
I want to search for a pattern and replace with a string. I can easily achieve the same in oracle 10g with REGEXP_REPLACE , I want to get the similar solution in 9i.
Eg.
I have to search for a string pattern 1234 5678 9012 6736 , I want to replace the same with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX.
The code which I am working on consists of an incoming dynamic string which be in the form of binary digits. The max size of the string will be 12 digits. For example, the string can be '111011000001', '000000000000', '111111011111', etc.
I need to find the number of occurences of '111' in the incoming string. Say in the 1st example, result will be 1, in the 2nd example result will be 0, and in the third example, the result will be 3.
I have been trying to capture the string length and replacing the variables '111' to find the number of occurences, but it isn't giving me the result that I want. This is what I have tried
SQL> conn hr/hr Connected. SQL> show user USER is "HR"
[Code]....
I searched the forum and found a similar topic, and following that guideline, I even tried dividing the string with the length of the pattern. It works in some scenarios (the first and second examples mentioned below), while it fails in some scenarios (third example mentioned below)
SQL> select (length('11101110111') - length(replace('11101110111','111','')))/length('111') as occurences from dual;
OCCURENCES ---------- 3
SQL> select (length('110111110111') - length(replace('110111110111','111','')))/length('111') as occurences from dual;
OCCURENCES ---------- 2
SQL> select (length('111111111111') - length(replace('111111111111','111','')))/length('111') as occurences from dual;
I need to find out in DB Package where this Package is installed (in which schema). The problem is this DB Package can be installed in various schemas. This means that I can't use select user from dual or system environment SYS_CONTEXT('USERENV', 'OS_USER').
I am trying to read/write Open Office scalc.exe(which is replacement of Excel file) file using DDE Package as like Excel File. But it is giving me non oracle Exception Error when it focused or initiate.
I am using Oracle forms 6i, database 10g. Created a package containing 1 function in schema1.
Granted execute on this package to Schema2. Created a public synonym on this package.
Now when im using this package in a form and compiling in schema2, it is giving Error 0 at Line 0, column 0. Ora-00600: internal error code, arguments: [17069],[71101744],[],[],[],[]
If i compile in schema1, where package was originally created, it is compiling without any error. But i am not compile this in schema2.
I've created a database package which is having record type and one procedure. I want to execute or call this package from oracle 6i form. How to do this.
I have a package with several procedures which raise and catch an error if a foreign key constraint has been violated. I put the the following code in my package body:
Now all the procedures inside the package which catch this exception in the EXCEPTION block work fine. I would like to be able to use that exception outside of my package as well though, how would I do this?
i have two table menu_user_d and emp_master , the requirement is i need to match names from both these tables like i want want to match menu_user_d.user_desc to emp_master.emp_name to get the emp_id and update the correct emp_id into menu_user_d.user_emp_id , i have prepared a test case and wrote one query but could'nt succeed in getting all the matching names, is there a way i can do this correct matching and then update it automatically.
SQL> insert all 2 into menu_user_d(user_id,user_desc,user_emp_id) values ('ARIF','Mohammed Arif',null) 3 into menu_user_d(user_id,user_desc,user_emp_id) values ('wajahat','Wajahat',null) 4 into menu_user_d(user_id,user_desc,user_emp_id) values ('Imad','Imd',null) 5 select * from dual;
SQL> insert all 2 into emp_master(emp_id,emp_name) values ('7014','Md.Arif') 3 into emp_master(emp_id,emp_name) values ('6777','Wajahat') 4 into emp_master(emp_id,emp_name) values ('1008','Imad El Kane') 5 select * from dual;
3 rows created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> SELECT USER_ID,USER_DESC,USER_emp_id,EMP_id,EMP_NAME 2 FROM MENU_USER_d,EMP_master 3 WHERE UPPER(USER_DESC) LIKE UPPER(EMP_NAME) ;
I need to rescue some valors from Excel, and then close the excel file without saving changes and without messages.
I am using THe DDE package and when using
DDE.EXECUTE(convid, '[Save()]', 10000);
there is no problem, but the changes are saved. I have tried '[Exit()]' and '[Close()]' but always have error message ORA-106555. Is there any way of doing this without errors?
I have a personname table which contains records of millions Person-names. My application has a requirment to return "any" 200 names that match the given Firstname and lastname entered by user.note the NOT actually "top-n", but "Any-N" , i.e. user wants "any" 200 names and NOT in any "specific order".
which is the best option to make most efficient search --
I have one table employee where there are 4 fields ,emp_code,emp_locn,emp_job_code,emp_job_desc the problem is i am trying to prepare a group reports based on location and emp_job_code there is a duplication of data in the emp_job_desc ,
For example there is a job_code E2 Which has two different job_descriptions for two different employees like E2-PAINTER-SPRAY, E2- PAINTER -SPRAY, another example is E1-rigger , E2-RIGGER and so on.Is there a method to match them together as one description.
What I'm trying to do is make it so that it returns 'MATCH' when I pass a date that matches a date every two weeks starting Jan 01. Like Jan 01, Jan 15, Jan 29, Feb 12, etc. would return as MATCH Jan 02, Jan 03, etc. would return as NO_MATCH
The part in bold is what I'm having trouble figuring out.
select nvl( (select 'MATCH' from dual where 'date' = '2 week intervals starting Jan 01' ), 'NO_MATCH') from dual
Example: I want to search 'Hello world' for the first instance of the letter 'o' starting from the end, backwards.As you can see, result for DBMS_LOB.instr is null when entered -1 for offset.
select DBMS_LOB.instr('Hello world','o',-1,1) lob_i, instr('Hello world','o',-1,1) std_i from dual;
I'm trying to match all sentences that contain words starting with given search tokens at least once. For example: if the given search token words are one and two then only sentences like "one plus one is two" should match. And should not match sentences like "one plus three is four". I was able to come up with this but I need a AND condition which I'm unable to get it right.
select count(*) from dual where regexp_like('one plus one is two', '(^|s)one|three', 'i');
Currently this gives a count of 1. But needs to give a count of 0 when the regexp is fixed.
search words : one two
one is less than two -> match two is greater than one -> match onetwo is union of two numbers -> match onetwo is union of 2 numbers -> not a match as 'two' is not at the beginning of a word one is less than three -> not a match as two is not present.
I have two table and trying to update tableA with data from tableB but gives an error. My TableA has columns - colA,colB,colC,colX and table B has columns - colA,colB,colX. Sample data looks like this:
this is the query I wrote update tableA a set (a.colX)=(select (b.colX) from tableB b where a.colA=b.colA and a.colB=b.colB);
When i run it gives this error:single row subquery returns more than one row.
tableB has only 1 value for colX for each colA,colB record but tableA has mutiple colA and colB repeated but for all of thsoe in table A i want to update the tableB.colX value for matching colA and colB.
