I have to compare a string entered in a form with a series of English strings in back-end PL/SQL( using LIKE operator )
But it so happens, the string entered in the form is specific to the language used in the country. for ex. in Dutch, it is entered in Dutch language.
So on comparing, it fails as the PL/SQL compares it with English Strings.
I have 2 strings that I want to compare for example
string1 = 'ABC~AB/10/1234'
string2 = 'ABC~AB/10/1234~.....'
There could be anything after the 2nd ~ in string 2 is there a easy way of trimming string2 to the first 14 Characters? Or do I have to find the 2nd instance of ~ and then remove everything after (and including) that?
I got an error FRM-40202: Field must be entered. I did some modifications to Standard form by copying it. after that when I selected the first Email check box in the list and then selected the Email button which I created newly for that form.

I have to fetch a string which is between to constant strings in a column.
Ex: Test Column
"The Student Record 10101 is deleted"
"The Student Record 10102 is deleted"
"The Student Record 10103 is deleted"
3 rows.
In this i need to fetch only ID from each row.
create table testtable ( TestCol varchar2(4000));
INSERT INTO TESTTABLE VALUES ('The Student Record 10101 is deleted');
INSERT INTO TESTTABLE VALUES ('The Student Record 10102 is deleted');
INSERT INTO TESTTABLE VALUES ('The Student Record 10103 is deleted');
PROCEDURE COLUMN_SPLIT (p_def IN VARCHAR2, p_sch OUT VARCHAR2, p_table OUT VARCHAR2, p_column OUT VARCHAR2)
IS
BEGIN
NULL;
END;
END;
I want to split p_def by dots, check for 3 elements, and return them in p_sch, p_table and p_column for example p_sch will be like hello.howare.you.I want to split it to hellohowareyouI have very limited knowledge with pl/sql.
I cann't commit form when new instance form with form status is "NEW".
And then i call:
Text_Item := WebUtil_File.File_Selection_Dialog('', '', 'Excel 2003|*.xls|Excel 2010|*.xlsx|All File|*.*', 'Select a file to Import', Open_File, True);
Form status change to "QUERY"
And then i click button "Import Data" from excel file to Data Block. Now form status change to "CHANGED". But i cannot call "Commit_Form" built-in to insert data to database oracle 10g.
The db field is a string-type field that hold strings such as:
'1234'
'753'
'textstring'
'345'
Obviously, if you sort it, it'll be stored as a string such as:
'1234'
'345'
'753'
'textstring'
My client wants it so the numbers sort as integers, followed by string-like strings (sorted alphabetically), so it's like.
'345'
'753'
'1234'
'textstring'
Is there a quick and dirty SQL-only way to doing this in Oracle?
Im trying to extract, *THIS IS MY STRING* from *<YUVRAJ THIS IS MY SRTING YUVRAJ>* .
In this <YUVRAJ and YUVRAJ> is constant, need to remove which is being appended at begin and end for a set of strings.
In the code segment below (hope it appears right) I can understand the use of single quotes in the first two examples but in the third example below I had to use double quotes around the word - Today's - and I not sure I understand why?! I'm aware of the rules ...If you want a single quote to appear in the middle of a string add another single quote to it.If you want a single quote to appear at the beginning or end of a string add 2 single quotes to it.If you want a single quote to appear on its own add 3 single quotes to it.

This is difficult to work with because the external table function does not appear to be even reading the file so it's not like I can convert the data as I'm loading into the internal database table.

tyring to insert an insery query having string as a column where i am supposed to insert a single quote casuing the problem.
insert into abc(x,y) values (1,'select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh='self' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij')
getting missing comma with the above query.when i tried to give as
insert into abc(x,y) values (1,'select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh=''self'' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij')
insert is happening but saving as "select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh=''self'' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij"
how to avoid this and get the select query to store as
select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh=''self'' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij

I have a function in PL/SQL that uses CTE to obtain several strings. I need to return those strings to C#, either as a Return Value or a OUTPUT parameter.
I've managed to do that using PLSQL Associative Array, but it has the unnecessary usage of Array Bind Size, and I do not need to know what will be my Array size. Is that any other way to do it?

I need to divide this sting after every 100 characters, as the length of column to insert is 100. And i do not want to modify the column as it has great impact. I need to divide the string, such that it should be less then 100 characters also the string is not cut in between.
like:
first string: "This is just for testing 123.
This is just for testing 45654.
This is just for testing 5567876."
then 2nd string: "This is just for testing 53456547.
This is just for testing 123423.
This is just for testing 98090."
then 3rd string: "This is just for testing 099473.
This is just for testing.
This is just for testing.
This is just for testing 3."
FRM-40202: Field must be entered.I have a custom form,developed by someone few years ago. While doing a F11 (query-find) in this custom forms in Oracle application, I get the message FRM-40202 Field must be entered because I have some mandatory fields.Below are the steps I follow to reproduce this bug.
- Open custom form
- Enter data/values in all mandatory fields.
- save. It saved back in database.
- then CTRL+F11 to see all the records.
- Only first two records are showing in the screen.
- And "FRM-40202: Field must be entered." at the bottom.
I'm having some columns in my form with required_property set to yes. When I'm trying to query FRM-40202 appears.

I have a column named account_detail of data type Varchar2(70). I want to enforce a law such that all data being entered in this column is entered as
22 22 22 22
which means there is a space after every two digits. How do I achieve this through oracle forms, is there a way in the property pallette through which I can set it's property to reflect this change or should I do this with key-next-item.
We have a SSRS Front end screen which sends multi-select column values as comma separated strings to back end ( Oracle 10g) procedure .
The procedure builds the string by inserting single quotes in the following manner.
P_BU_LST is the parameter which have comma separated values
'1234,3456,4577' i.e, BU ids selected by user in front end
the procedure inserts single quotes to this paramer value
i.e., '1234','3456','4577
v_bu_lst := '''' || REPLACE(v_selbu, ',', ''',''')|| '''';
This is used the where clause of the REF CURSOR SELECT query which send the data back to SSRS
ie.,
SELECT BU.*
FROM BU_DETAIL BU
WHERE INSTR(V_BU_LST,BU_ID) <> 0;
INSTR has a chance to fail in this scenario if the value send from the front end is 123456,3456,4577
here 123456 does not exist in table, but it will be true for INSTR and values 1234 from table will be send back to SSRS which is wrong. Earlier I was using a function to convert the comma separated values to multi-rows and treat it like a lookup table.
But the main table has around million records , and each row has to processed against each row of lookup table, which makes it slower. To avoid this I used INSTR which is faster but can give wrong results.
I have a requirement to get the count of those records whose department is not changed since they have joined the organization.
Script:
CREATE TABLE ddumps(orgid NUMBER, orgdate DATE, orgdept VARCHAR2(10))
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(1,'01-JAN-1999','ORG1')
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(1,'01-JAN-2000','ORG2')
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(1,'01-JAN-2001','ORG2')
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(2,'01-JAN-1999','ORG1')
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(2,'01-JAN-2000','ORG1')
/
INSERT INTO ddumps VALUES(2,'01-JAN-2001','ORG1')
ORGID ORGDATE ORGDEPT
1 1/1/1999 ORG1
1 1/1/2000 ORG2
1 1/1/2001 ORG2
2 1/1/1999 ORG1
2 1/1/2000 ORG1
2 1/1/2001 ORG1
since the orgid 1 has changed the dept from org1 to org2 I do not want this to be appeared in the final count. Results should only include the orgid 2 since it didn't changed any dept.

I'm trying to add a column in an existing form. I added a text item and defined it as a database item. When I tried to rename the item the message (frm-15500 valid and unique object name must be entered)appears, and therefore not able to exit the property Platte.
Is there a way I can exit the Platte and should I've first add the column to the data block and then rename in my form ?
