I am creating a dynamic sql and to do so I want to concat this string:
v_consulta := v_listado_condiciones || 'UPPER(nombre) like UPPER(''/%'' '|| PRAZONSOCIAL ||' ''/%'') escape ''/'' '
But I get errors when I try to escape % operator, how could I do that ?
I have a simple update statement. Sometimes the data in this statement has single quotes in it (like shown below).
Update table1 set account = 'CD'S NOT MINE' WHERE NUMBER = '0027201'
When I run this SQL, I get SQL Error: ORA-01756: quoted string not properly terminated
01756. 00000 - "quoted string not properly terminated"
Is there an escape charecter that I can use?

FROM (
[code]....
E1 Table Data
Job_id
Sa_Clerk
Sa_Manager
Sahil
select job_id from E1 where instr(job_id,'_')>0;
returns output

resturns
Sa_Clerk
Sa_Manager

In the above mentioned data file, records has multiple special characters like '°','¶' ,'-'.
All these special characters have some meaning.
eg: '°' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -1
'¶' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -0.1
what changes need to be made in loader utility for the same? Also, will there be any change in the utility if I am using higher version of oracle?

Is there any way I can use some escape character for loading this type of data.
how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252;
SQL> SHUTDOWN;
SQL> STARTUP;
SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?

- What does the line 'CPU core' means? The DB is running in a virtual server with 8 CPUs. However, the line 'CPU core' is in 1. Does it mean that Oracle is just using 1 CPU?
- What represents the '99th percentile' line? The chart shows several sessions above that line, something is not working well, isn't it?

I'd like to use escape sequences in plsql but it didn't work.I have to use a variable 'v_jahr'..This is what I like to do:
SELECT COUNT(TABLE_NAME) FROM USER_TABLES
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'TABLE' || v_jahr;
But I think I should use an 'EXECUTE IMMEDIATE' like this:
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT COUNT(TABLE_NAME) FROM USER_TABLES
WHERE TABLE_NAME = 'TABLE' || v_jahr';
But then I have to escape my tics. How can I do this?
I tried this:
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SELECT COUNT(TABLE_NAME) FROM USER_TABLES
WHERE TABLE_NAME = '||''''||'TABELLE_'||'''' || v_jahr ||'''';

We have Oracle 10g and user trying to Insert following in one of our table field and getting error:

I'm trying to insert a character from the extended ascii character set. Specifically, there's a company that has an accented e (�) in the name. Right now, the company name doesn't have the e at all, accent or no accent. So I'm trying to do an update, something like
update table1 set company_name='blah�" where company='blah'
It runs, but doesn't do the update. Even when I try to forcefully do an insert (instead of an update) I get nowhere; the accented is simply dropped. So the basic question is, how do you insert extended ascii characters into oracle?
I have one string 'SWAP_20120224_MEGAMART_MAR_Sales.csv'

I am using C++ OCI LIB, to insert some report data from remote OCI client to oracle 11 server. This data is read by another process to create the report.The DB CHARSET is UTF-8. But the report tool expects the data to be ISO08859-1 encoded. So while inserting the data into the database i specify the following LANG and CHARSET for my table colulmn in client:
The TARGET DB CHARSET is UTF-8
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
size_t csid = 871; // UTF-8
OCIAtrSet((void *) bnd1p, (ub4) OCI_HTYPE_BIND,
*(void *)&csid*,
(ub4) 0,
(ub4)OCI_ATTR_CHARSET_ID, errhp);
This solution works for almost every case of ASCII and Extended ASCII Charest but we are facing issues if we have few specific characters to be inserted.f we are trying to insert single beta character [β] through client, the data goes empty to the column.
Beta Character details:
DEC OCT HEX BIN Symbol Description
223 337 DF 11011111 ß Latin small letter sharp s - ess-zed
DB Output after insert single β:
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
But if the string is *"ββ"* everything work fine:
DB Output for "ββ":
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
DFDF
If using utl_file package to write output to a file, is there a way to specify the character set which should be used?

Is there any way to store data,such as the select query will also show understandable japanese characters on Sql Developer(or other IDEs)?

There is a table like below
seq no. number(6)
amount varchar2(20,2)
The values in the table are:
Rec1
123456
100.00
Rec2
123457
99.01
Rec3
123458
9a.01
Rec4
123459
NULL
Now I want to summarize the amount column replacing non numeric and null values to '0'(zero's).
how to frame query for this.
I would like to use character functions (LPAD, INSTR, SUBSTR, etc) to accomplish what i feel should be rather easy. I would like to take the following character strings:
'ADAM ST #3 S_109640'
'ALBANY AVE #5 & #6 S_AL5&6'
'ALBIN RD #10A S_123318'
And make them
'ADAM ST'
'ALBANY AVE'
'ALBIN RD'
As you can see, it probably boils down to using SUBSTR, INSTR, RTRIM, and LENGTH??
