I would need to convert the column datatype from BLOB to CLOB. currently in the table, the BLOB column has the data. the requirement is to convert this column from BLOB to CLOB datatype.
How to convert from BLOB datatype to CLOB datatype ?
on this query. I need to get a particular value from a column which is a BLOB datatype. Here is the sample
data ID TESTDATA1 Best Buy
00001234 12222 30 00 2
Lowes 00001234 12222 100 00 3
Walmart 00001234 12222 129 00 4
abc 00001234 12222 5000 00 5
Toshiba 00001234 12222 21 00 6
abcdefghij 00001234 12222 49 00
Where '00001234' is the Invoice , '12222' is Netamount field and highlighted in red is the $ amount for that invoice.
The only data i need query to return 12222 (netamount)= $amount. I tried using substr select substr((TESTDATA),19,26)test from TABLEA; But this gives me the only the first row but not other amount which have different positions.
Here is the desired output
OutputID TESTDATA 1
12222 30 2 12222 100 3
12222 129 4 12222 5000 5
12222 21 6 12222 49
I have a source data in a column with LONG datatype. I want to insert that data into a separate table in a column which has BLOB datatype.

how can i update CLOB values in Oracle? I am passing string values to Clob datatype from .Net Eg '13223311','12122112','122125552'
View 6 Replies View Relatedi am trying to calculate the avg size of a row, in which i have one column which has clob datatype,
for rest of the datatypes i am using (avg(vsize(col_name,varchar2(10)))), i want a simple function that can calculate the clob datatype.
I have a table that has column with BLOB datatype. I am trying read only the inputted String from the BLOB datatype column. I have used the below query,
SELECT utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(column1) FROM TAB1
and it gives the result as
<H2><FONT color=#cc0000><EM><U>test</U></EM></FONT></H2>
However I would like to extract only the string "test" which is inputted. Is there any build-in function in oracle which will satisfy this requirement?
<ORACLE VERSION : 11.2.0.2.0> i have created a table with CLOB as datatype for one of the columns, I am trying to store a string ( I am not sure about the length of the string) , when i am querying on my table for the CLOB column,instead of the actual string "(HUGECLOB)" is coming. How to get the actual string in case the problem is with the SIZE.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have to change the datatype of a column from CLOB to varchar2, without changing the order of the columns. The table has no data.
I could find any other way other than dropping the CLOB columns and then adding new columns with varchar2 datatype. But this changes the order of the columns in the table.
How could we concat a clob with a char datatype.
declare
a clob;
b varchar2;
c clob;
begin
c:=a||b;
end;
When execute above code in form runtime, I get error ora-32767.
"ORA-29287: invalid maximum line size Cause: An invalid maximum line size value was specified.
Action: Correct the maximum line size to be in the range [1, 32767]."
Recently I came across this issue, which gives me an error as following.
ERROR:
ORA-22835: Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: 4907, maximum: 4000)
Now I am running a very simple query against one of the View in our Database.
Query is:
Select Prj_Num,
PM_Comments
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
What I have discovered so far is one of the field in this view name “PM_Comments” has more than 4000 bytes of information in it, Which is not supported by tools I have available on my computer. I have Oracle SQL Plus, SQL plus Worksheet, Access and Excel installed on my machine. DBA related to this database are stating that the field is working fine and query is executing without error since they are using TOAD for SQL, which does have capabilities to read more than 4000 bytes.
What I have figured out so far is “PM_Comments” is a LOB and SQL plus is having trouble reading this information more than 4000 bytes in one field of information.Because of this diagnosis, I have tried using following queries but it did not useful either.
Select Prj_Num,
Substr (PM_Comments, 1, 4000)
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
Select Prj_Num,
DBMS_LOB.Substr(PM_Comments, 4000, 1)
From ProjectDetails
Where Rel = ‘2008 10’
But both of the above mentioned queries did not work either. and I get the same ORA-22835 Error.I do not need all of the information in “PM_Comments” field, I only need about first 1000 characters of it.
i was using sql server there is time keyword but in oracle which keyword i should take instead of time keyword?
View 7 Replies View RelatedI created a table of Number(20,4) column. I inserted an amount value 999999999999999.5555 but this value is rounded off to 1000000000000000.0000 automatically in Oracle.

During compilation it gives me an error PLS-00904 saying insufficient privilege.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a table which have almost 90000 rows.

How can I issue this error, I need use also dblink with long type.
I do not want to use the copy command.
I know that you can solve this problem with a stored procedure or anonymous block.
The below table and functions are examples, but issue is like this.
i have one issue while forming below sql , Application will form this query at run time wih required inputs
it is failing because the application will not support the clob datatype.
Table : T_E (similar to EMP table structure)
This table has data similar to emp but bulk data around 10k records.
Query formed
select empno,ename, get_employees(deptno)
from t_e;
This sql query this is failing when function return varchar2 string more than 4000 size.Because in sql query size should not exceed 4000 for varchar2 data type , function return size can be upto 20000
Function which
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION get_employees (p_deptno in emp.deptno%TYPE)
RETURN varchar2
IS
l_text varchar2(32767) := NULL;
BEGIN
FOR cur_rec IN (SELECT ename FROM t_e WHERE deptno = p_deptno) LOOP
l_text := l_text || ',' || cur_rec.ename;
END LOOP;
RETURN LTRIM(l_text, ',');
END;
I can try this with clob but application doesn't support that..so i tried with using clob in above function , after that while returning to application i want to conver the clob to char and return the entire string
select empno,ename, to_char(substring(get_employees(deptno),1,4000)) -- first 4000 characters
, to_char(substring(get_employees(deptno),4000,8000)) -- next 4000 characters
from t_e;
But this is failing how to return the entire string in above sql

getting this error.

I've to find the max and min weight from this data.
I have question related to LONG datatype. Actually from google and get to know that one table can have only one LONG datatype when i searched for reason . i got these resons:-
With 9i (I believe) and later versions, Oracle deprecates using the long datatype in favor of the lob (clob, nclob and blog) datatypes. It is only supported for backward compatibility.
Restriction:- It can not be used in create type as an attribute of the defined type.
It can not be used in where conditions.
There can be no indexes on long columns.
Regular Expression are not possible.
long can not be returned from a stored function.
SQL can not call functions that have an attribute of type long.
And even more restrictions.
So I want to know that is only reason because of that Oracle doesn't allow us to make two Column or is there any strong reason which make it more logical Like storing of data in Row blocks or some thing else.
I have a stored proc which takes IN parameter of datatype varchar2.When I am trying to run the proc it is throwing error that "input buffer too small".The datatype assigned to IN parameter is of varchar2(200) but actually the length of the parameter passed is around 500 characters.the way to increase the length of Input parameter to 500 characters??

and i am changing its size to number(10,3) by alter table command but it not allowing. why?????? as my data in that column still satisfy the the changes.
and even when i modify the char column to varchar2 column by alter table command and changing the size of that column,it is not allowing me to change it why?
We also face the same in oracle 9i version. we tried to re-org some tables for performance issue.But our tables have long and long raw datatype. then we approached the traditional way i.e 1. Export tables.2.Truncate tables.3.import tables.(use ignore=y).4.check the index validation.5.gather stats. Above was successfully done in our production environment.but some application downtime is required.
