I currently have a table with a VARCHAR column which is used to store notes. Currently the notes read something like 'Verified 01/01/2012'. I am trying to convert it to a date column so I can run reports using the date (select between dates etc).
I have tried with the substr function but since the records are all different doesn't really work. (plus that doesn't make it a date so not sure it would work for searching).
I currently have a field which stores a date (date employer started with the company). I want to create a view which stores this as number of days employed (e.g. if star date 1st October view will say 8). How to convert a date to a number?
I have a column which has has all numeric values 3 digits to 7 digits in length but all in string format, I want to use seomthing other than to_number function.
Would like to use within the ETL tool, where to_number function isn't getting recognized.
I want to convert the field value into numeric form using the formula:
∑[((radix)^ position * alphvalue) mod PR] where alphvalue A= 10, B = 11, C = 12, D = 13,E = 14............. S = 28, ...........Z = 35, radix = 36, PR= 731 The value of position is marked from right to left starting with 0.
For Example: ASIN Let PR = 731 (large prime number)
I have an sqlldr process running loading data into my database. I have created a trigger to run before inserts on each row to start gathering summary data from the basic underlying data. The trigger compiles ok and the procedures the trigger is calling compile ok, but when the sqlldr process runs I get errors in the log files.
Here is the sqlldr control file:
LOAD data APPEND INTO TABLE cdr.day_tables FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' TRAILING NULLCOLS ( RecordCode ,CdrStart DATE 'YYYY DDD SSSSS' [code].......,
Next is my trigger
create or replace TRIGGER BNUMBER_SUMMARY_INS BEFORE INSERT ON DAY_TABLES FOR EACH ROW DECLARE [code]......
Next are the procedures that are called by the trigger:
create or replace PROCEDURE BNUMBER_SUMMARY ( BNUMBER IN VARCHAR2 , CALLDATE IN DATE , CALLDURATION IN NUMBER ) AS record_found NUMBER; BEGIN [code].......
The error messages I am getting are:
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table CDR.DAY_TABLES, column CDREND. ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected ORA-06512: at "CDR.BNUMBER_SUMMARY_INS", line 6 ORA-04088: error during execution of trigger 'CDR.BNUMBER_SUMMARY_INS'
I need to find out what field it is complaining about, especially since I am not even using the cdrend field from the input record?
I know this question has been asked several times. but i am starting out and i am struggling to get my head aroung it.I would like to convert datetime column of Oracle source(RPT.SHIPMENT_VW) to date while loading to sql Here is my
SELECT SHIPMENT_NBR,RECEIVED_DATE_TIME, RCVD_AT_DATE_GMT_FK FROM RPT.SHIPMENT_VW where WHERE RECEIVED_DATE_TIME = TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(:fromdate, 'DD/MM/YYYY')) here RECEIVED_DATE_TIME is in 'DD/MM/YY hh:mi:si' fromat which, i want to convert to 'DD/MM/YY' the above code throwing an error ORA:01843 not a valid month
if I use where clause like:WHERE (RECEIVED_DATE_TIME = TO_DATE(TO_CHAR(:fromdate, 'DD/MM/YYYY'), 'DD/MM/YY'))then its not retrieving any data
I want to force a datetime field to display as date only. How can I do this? This is so when prompting for a value for this field a user doesn't have to also enter the time. At the moment the prompt returns nothing when entering only a date as it does not match any value as they all have times also.
i am using one stored procedure where in one variable which is declare as date value is coming like that '10-OCT-12 11.30.54 AM' and i am inserting this value in one table which has one column vdate with date datatype but it is not inserting there.
I have imported data from a fixed length format file into an external table in oracle which has several date fields in the format MMDDCCYY. I want to convert this into YYYYMMDD and insert it into another table in oracle with date field. A subset of the values to be converted is given below:
DOB 01051152 10581111 08151160 01031151 05131151 01111126
I have a string in this format '2011/06/01 00:00:00'. How do I convert this to date format.I tried to_date,to_char and they give errors invalid number & literal does not math format string. I don't have much control on the string since that is the way is comes from the application.
One table ACCOUNT_T.CREATED_T is number (38). It is mapped to /ACCOUNT's PIN_FLD_CREATED_T, which is timestamp. ACCOUNT_T table has one record, CREATED_T = 1362063600. This field is displayed at the GUI (Customer Center) as Feb 28, 2013 So my question, how to convert the number value (1362063600) to a date value (Feb 28, 2013)?
I get the error message mentioned in the subject with this SELECT-statement
....where (t.cfonte=14 and t.data_ultima_modifica between sysdate -4000/(24*60*60) and sysdate ) or (t.data_ultima_modifica > to_date('%TIMESTAMP%','ddmmyyhh24miss'))]]>
If I substitute %TIMESTAMP% with 310507143709 then it works
i have create one standard Calender from that i pickup month date and year separately like 2/6/1987 now i want to convert it into standard date format how to convert it and pass to another block....
I have a UI which is java and database in oracle 10g and database resides in India. Now the user use this application across the world. Date related value stores in IST format.
Now the requirement is whenever any user open the application in USA ,then date value should convert into their local time zone. So is there any way in oracle to convert and show the date value according to their local time zone.
select to_char(report_date, 'YYYY MM Mon'), count(1) no_of_times from ( select to_date('&&YYYYMMDD', 'YYYYMMDD')+rownum report_date , mod(rownum,14) mod_result from all_objects
[code]...
