I have 2 tables.The column in table A is number and Column in table B is a varchar2 datatype.I have to use the Column of table B as a filter to column of Table A.Below is the example.
create table A(Col1 number); Inert into A values(1); Inert into A values(2); Inert into A values(3); Inert into A values(4);
Create table B(Col1 Varchar2(100)); Insert into b value ('1,2,3');
Select * from A where col1 in (select col1 from b) Error: Invalid Number
Is there a way to convert the varchar to number.The varchar field have multiple characters (numbers) seperated by commas.
When I try to convert numeric values � number(19) p.s 111111111111111111, the to_char function returns �1111111111111110000� because the to_char functions doesn�t support precision bigger than 15.
I have table customer which contains a column CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME
CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(50)
What will be sql statement to add a constraint on the CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME column of the CUSTOMERS table so that the value inserted in the column does not have numbers ?
I need to create a composite unique index on varchar2, number and CLOB column. I haven't used such index before that have the CLOB column indexing. I found the below link related to CLOB indexing...
[URL]......
Links from where I can get related info. Also I would like to know the impact of such index on performance. I have to store and process around 50 million records in such a way, will it be beneficial to use this index?
I am facing issue related to Number data while it is being converted to Varchar2, it is automatically getting rounded off after 32 decimal place.My database version is "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production".
"First" string got rounded off to 97 (last 2 digits) instead of 9679 but for "Second" record it holds the actual value.Only thing which I could figure out while the number is getting type casted to String, it is getting rounded off to 32 decimal place.throw off some light on it and provide the solution how the original record can be kept intact without rounding off.

structure : Name Null? Type -------------------- -------- -------------------------------- MANDT NOT NULL VARCHAR2(9) MR_ID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(60) PROFILE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(54) REGISTER_ID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) INTERVAL_DATE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(24) AGGR_CONSUMPTION NOT NULL NUMBER(21,6) MDM_VERS_NO NOT NULL VARCHAR2(9) MDP_UPDATE_DATE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(24) MDP_UPDATE_TIME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(18) NMI_CONFIG NOT NULL VARCHAR2(120) NMI_CONFIG_FLAG NOT NULL VARCHAR2(3) MDM_DATA_STRM_ID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(6) NSRD NOT NULL VARCHAR2
[Code]....
As per my knowledge, RANGE is better suited for DATE or NUMBER. and INTERVAL partition is possible on DATE or NUMBEr . Column PROFILEIts is of VARCHAR2 datatype. I know still I can partition as Oracle internally convert varchar2 to number while inserting data. But INTERVAL is not possible. How to RANGE partition on PROFILE ? Column CREATED_ON :It is of NUMBER with decimal
i am fairly new in the oracle arena, but what would cause a statement such as
ALTER TABLE TEST_TABLE MODIFY text_field1 varchar2(100) DEFAULT 'testval' NULL
to change a column's type from VARCHAR2(100) to VARCHAR2(100 byte)? i found a few mentions of the 100 byte concept online but nothing that jumped out at me.
i can't eliminate the spaces between values, i tried to use rtrim but still failed.
Set pagesize 0 set linesize 1000 set heading off set feedback off set colsep '|' SELECT '200', '20002977', T0.TP, T0.Description, T2.FirstName, T2.LastName, 'Geography Code', SUBSTR(T3.aoManager, -6,5) [code]....
I need to eliminate the blank spaces based on below conditions Consider name column with a value as
Input : "sa c h in Te nd ulka r" where "Sachin" is first name and "Tendulkar" is last name. there is more than 1 space between sachin and tendulkar (here its not displaying properly)
Condition :Second name is seperated from first name with more than 1 spaces and others are with 1 black space. I need to get result as Output:"sachin Tendulkar" ( there should be 1 blank space between first and last name in result.)
I created a report (its basically a statement) without a header. When I run the report, blank lines appear at the top of the report before the details start printing. How do I get the report to print from the top of the page without leaving any blank lines.
I have migrated from postgres to oracle entire databases however some tables have spaces how can they be removed and how can i found out all the tables in a schema with spaces?
I was about to move some tables from one table space to another but it seems it is not possible to move partitioned tables between table spaces of different block sizes.
So far the only option I have is to export and then import back the data.
know if there is any way to move a partitioned table between table spaces of different block size?
I have a column named "col1" with datatype "varchar2(10)" and row wise entries like "1,1A, 2,3...,10,2A,..." like. I want to order it like "1, 1A ,2,2A, 2B,3... 10...".I tried it with to_number() but it gives me
in our application we are using clob column instead of varchar2 because varchar2 does not allow more that 4000 chars, so Using clob allows to put data of any length, will it cause performance issues ? we have this column in almost in all tables .
Once a year in the application we have a specific query that gets used a lot. It's an UPDATE that updates a single record in a single table with a few different datatypes, but the issue is happening with one of the VARCHAR2 fields. It updates one VARCHAR2(2000) and three VARCHAR2(4000) fields at the same time.
This year, 9 of the 95 times it was used resulted in one of the VARCHAR2(4000) fields as null in the database. The users would not want this field to be null and 5 of the 9 have told us they entered something (the form they're filling out is a research proposal and leaving this field empty would be pointless because it's part of the funding request, so they're not doing it). The application isn't doing it because it's not consistent. I've checked the application and these fields can't be nulled any other way.
We just found the issue so I looked back over the past years back to 2005. Last year it didn't happen at all. In 2010 it happened a handful of times. Some years there were even more times. It's not always the same field but it's always a VARCHAR2 of at least 2000 characters.
I have a lot more information but it's all just details (let me know if you need to know more). I'm wondering if there is a bug in 10g with these types of fields. I don't believe it's malicious behavior on an individual's part but I suppose that's always possible.
how to research something like this. I tried to get access to Oracle Support and the Knowledge Base I heard they have but it doesn't look like I can do that
