View 9 RepliesI 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 ?
Can we use long data type in where clause of the query ?

exec DBMS_METADATA.SET_TRANSFORM_PARAM(DBMS_METADATA.SESSION_TRANSFORM,'SEGMENT_ATTRIBUTES', false);
result: E;;45;45 ;45 ;45 ;S 45
I am not sure but may be I need to set long size before running above query. But when I try to set long size gives below error. "The output from DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL is a LONG datatype. When using SQL*Plus, your output may be truncated by default. Issue the following SQL*Plus command before issuing the
DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL statement to ensure that your output is not truncated:"SQL> SET LONG 9999error: Unhandled SET statement: "SET LONG 9999"
I've this problem:

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.
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 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.
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.

I've got a dblink between two Oracle databases. There are one view that I specify a join between four remote tables.
One of the tables does have a column defined as a long raw. I do not need that column; the query doesn´t make reference to it.However, when I specify the query, I get this error: ORA-00997; illegal use of LONG datatype.
"how can I accomplish this query, over a dblink, given that one table has a long raw that is not part of my query ?
I have a problem i need to convert a blob column contains pic file to long row
i had many tries but no one succeeded
-----------------------------------
Source table | destination table
id number | id number
img blob | img long raw
------------------------------------
1 - INSERT INTO destination table SELECT id , img FROM Source table WHERE ROWNUM < 2
i have this error ORA-22835 Buffer too small for CLOB to CHAR or BLOB to RAW conversion (actual: 146092, maximum: 2000)
2 - INSERT INTO destination table SELECT id , dbms_lob.SUBSTR(img,0,2000) FROM Source table WHERE ROWNUM < 2
now errors but the lengh is 0 (i have no file )
What can i Do
I need to find all the partition names below or equal given value.

Any other alternative ? (I know its because of LONG Datatype of HIGH_VALUE ) ...

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?
I want to find the constraint name from User_Constraints table using the following query:
Select * From User_Constraints Where Table_Name='CHARGECODE' and Constraint_Type='C' And Search_Condition = '"PERCENTAGE" IS NOT NULL';

Is there any way to compare with long type value.
converting BLOB data into varchar2 or long .
we have function which convert long data and return it has varchar . But has part of Apps upgrade the Column has been converted into blob column.
How we need the same function to read the data from BLOB and return its as long or varchar2.
Somewhere i am making mistake..
CREATE OR REPLACE function GDS.test_alert_msg(v_rowid rowid) return varchar2 is
vblob blob;
i2 number;
amt number :=32767;
len number;
pos raw(32767);
position INTEGER := 10000;
my_vr raw(32767);

display or get values stored in a long column.i tried the below code, but myvar is shown as null. am i missing something here or is there a better apporoach than this ?. There are actually 16 rows returned for this query but with empty values for 'high_value' column which is critical for me. How can i do this long to varchar convertion ?
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
DECLARE

I would like to know if there is possible to transform a CLOB type variable intro a long type variable. I know, that LONG is obsolete in Oracle, but I need it, because in a PL/SQL 'execute immediate' sentence a CLOB is not allowed.

We have a forms application in Forms 10g. We scan a document and gets it to a image item in the Form. Now, we need to pass this image to a 3rd party application (document mgt. system, ). They have given us a web-service for this. We have to convert the image to a BASE64 string and then invoke the web-service method and input it.
The, 3rd party application document management system will also send images as BASE64 strings through the web-service. We need to convert them back to a blob and put to an image item in the form so that it can be viewed by the end-user.
So, how can we convert a image item in form (as BLOB) to a base64 string and also do the reverse???
I have a table where user can store images in clob format.Need to convert the same image to blob and store in a dummy table.
I tried using this

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. How to avoid this? I tried for less number of digits and I am getting the exact value. Is there any way to get the exact value without changing the datatype?
