SQL & PL/SQL :: Extended Ascii To Character
Jan 27, 2011I have requirement to convert the extended ascii to character. Is there any function available .

View 9 RepliesI'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 a table like mentioned below
create table test1( test_no number, test_description varchar2(100));
insert into test1 values (1,'ABC£¥');
insert into test1 values (2,'BCD£¥');
Now I am selecting from the above table and the expected rest it should have shown is as shown below
TEST1
-----------------------
TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABC£¥
2 BCD£¥
But instead of showing the extended ascii characters, it is showing some different characters as shown below
select * from test1;
TEST1
-----------------------
TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABCLY
2 BCDLY
I have an requirement where i need to fetch the exact ascii characters for £ and ¥ instead of L and Y respectively.
i have to upload a file in database, the column seperator is ASCII CHARACTER 29, i dont know how to specify that in loader file?
how to write this - fields terminated by ' ' in sql file, which i am calling from a batch file.
i have attached the text file which i am trying to upload, here field seperator is ASCII CHARACTER 29 and record seperator is NEW LINE CHARACTER.
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?
I have a database in which DB extended auditing is enabled but there are no audit specifications in privileges or statements or objects. So what will be audited in that case.

drop table tmp_guid;
CREATE TABLE tmp_guid (
c1 raw(16) not null
,c2 raw(16) not null
);
begin
[code]...
It seems that a combination of a unique index and extended stats are to blame. Removing any one of them causes the query to also produce correct results.Extended stats basically captures the fact that despite being unique, c1 depends on c2.
We use extended RAC 11gR2 on two servers in two different server rooms.Data are stored on ISCSI devices, mounted from "storage" linux hosts on a network called "SAN".Third voting disk is also stored on a ISCSI device mounted from a "quorum" linux host on our "PUBLIC" network.The RAC interconnect link is on a separate "PRIVATE" network.
During tests, when we totally disconnect the "SAN" link between the two servers, clusterware has an undefined behaviour.Sometimes (more often) it crashes, sometimes one node stays alive.At this moment, each RAC server is able to access only the ISCSI storage in its own server room, and the two servers are able to access the third voting disk (because it is on a separate network).

WHILE my_lenght_help <= my_lenght LOOP

UTL_FILE.PUT_RAW ( g_write_file , my_bufer_read );

my question. How I can change "my_bufer_read" between UTL_FILE.GET_RAW and UTL_FILE.PUT_RAW to make writable file ascii
I want to get NUMBER value from RAW bytes in PL/SQL...For example, single-byte value 0xED in RAW variable should became 237 in NUMBER variable.
We used to use:ascii(utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(utl_raw.substr(p_data,i,1))), but this seems working in DBs with single-byte character sets only, and now I am on DB with AL32UTF8 character set...
I would be happy if the following function returns 237, not 0:
function mmm (
r RAW -- ed (237 in decimal)
) return NUMBER
is
n NUMBER;

In field APPLICATIONNAME are non ASCII characters. Howto delete them?for example
old value:

new value:

CREATE TABLE MIDDLEWARE_CONT
(
APPLICATIONNAME VARCHAR2(120 BYTE),
PRODUCTNAME VARCHAR2(70 BYTE),
HOSTNAME VARCHAR2(60 BYTE),
[code]....
I can't think of a clue how to get the desired results.
I have table column with varchar2 type. I need to convert the strings in this column to ascii values. Now I know Oracle function ascii() converts a character to ascii values. But it just converts the first character of the string and ignore the others. I need to convert the whole string to ascii values. For example, if I need to convert the string "USA", the result should be '858365' (as in U decimal value is 85, S decimal value is 83 and A decimal is 65).
I think I need to use instr() function and also PL/SQL to pass all these strings through a cursor and then use a loop but I'm still confused about it.
I'm looking for a way to insert tabs (ASCII 009) in SQL output, to make the output file Excel-ready without manual intervention.
Here's what I need :
SQL> set output myfile.xls;
SQL> select article,TAB,count(*) from sales group by article having count(*) > 0;
Instead of TAB I can insert a dollar sign, but then I have to replace it using a file editor, which is a manual operation. I have been looking for an OpenVMS application which can replace all dollar signs by tabs in a given file, with no luck.
I created a DCL procedure (simplified from GSR.COM which I found on the internet) that reads every record in the output file and substitutes dollar signs by tabs, but it doesn't work with tabs, only with "normal" characters.
Even if I use the OpenVMS editor to insert ASCII 009 tab characters in the SQL statement (using the GOLD 009 GOLD SPEC INS key combination), SQL apparently automatically substitutes tabs by full stop signs in the output :
select article,' ',date from werknemers limit to 2 rows;
ARTICLE DATE
TROUSERS . 12-28-1974
SHIRTS . 10-08-1973
2 rows selected
I can use SQL to create a CSV file (comma separated values) which can be opened by Excel :
"trousers",20
"shirts",30
But the user has to open this file from within Excel and make a number of choices (separator, text delimiter, header row) before (s)he gets to see the desired columnar spreadsheet. That's not automation : I need the generated SQL output file to be double-clickable so that it opens as a columnar spreadsheet immediately.
why the REPLACE function is not replacing. I assume it has something to do with the ASCII value being zero.

View 4 Replies View RelatedMy application has several update-able forms. And I build a single staging table to store all these records.
The user wants a button on the last form and by clicking on this button they want to export the file(updated records from all the forms) in ASCII format.
if its do-able or not in apex since I haven't come across this kind of request earlier and didn't find the same in this forum?

I am having 2 data centers within 1/2 km distance. And we kept each vote disk in once site. In case of site failure, the cluster needs a 3rd set. We don't have 3rd site.
Last open world, Oracle announced that oracle storage on cloud as announced. If I get the small space on the cloud, can i put my 3rd vote disk on the cloud?

We have Oracle 10g and user trying to Insert following in one of our table field and getting error:
'REVOLUCIÃ"N Historical Corruptions Agenda'
Getting follwoing error:
ORA-00911: invalid character
create table Employee
(Emp_ID Varchar2 (10),
Company_Name Varchar2 (40)
)
Insert into Employee
values ('Emp1', 'REVOLUCIÃ"N Historical Corruptions Agenda');
I have one string 'SWAP_20120224_MEGAMART_MAR_Sales.csv'
I want to get the string between second underscore and third underscore i.e. 'MEGAMART'
How to achieve this in sql statement?
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)
---------------------------

If using utl_file package to write output to a file, is there a way to specify the character set which should be used?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've written a .net program for inserting blobs into our database, and it works fine, except if the path has more than 30(+) characters. I've read that this is a limitation in oracle, but the actual contents being stored is just the filename, extension, and blob itself, so I'm not actually storing anything more than 30 characters.
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe problem is regarding character encoding.When i am entering Japanese characters in a description form field in a Jsp page and on submit storing the value in the database,its getting stored fine.When i an selecting the value and showing in the result page,then again its properly displaying.But when i am executing the select query in Sql Developer,the values are most probably showing as unicode characters (i am not sure about this though,but at least they are looking like unsupported characters).
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??
I have a table in that table ename column the data type is VARCHAR2(40).
In that column the name is like kumar's and Caño
I have created text file using spool it's showing like
Reño kumar¿s
Why only for kumar's it's showing like "¿" this.
