How to find out lowercase char in a String in a SQL query
for example
"ORAclE" here c and l are lowercase so how can i find out this condition... is there any build in function in oracle?
i write a select statement in proc that contains 44 columns.
when i precompile it. it is showing the error: implicit conversion of string literal to "char *" is deprecated.when i compile the same select with 40 columns it is not showing any error.
but for more than 40 columns (41-44) it is showing the above error.
I'm facing some problem even after using INSTR function in Oracle.The problem is I have written the logic in the PL/SQL block which appends all the values fetched in a loop on the basis of whether the string is present or not.
For ex:
The first value fetched from the select query first is ABCDEFG which gets appended to a variable
The next value fetched is AB even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The next value fetched is BCDEF even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The third Value fetched is ABCDEFG this will not get appended presently according to the logic which is correct.
writing that piece of code to append the value fetched which doesn't exactly match with the existing string

Is any in-built function available, for Text alternative string search. If not how to search the string based on the query.
I wonder if there is any way to return the columns of an select with its letters lowercase?

Using Oracel SQL*Loader, is it possible to specify insert type statements? I need to know if i can pass a lower type call to a column. Specifically, if one of the entries is: username=MyUserName@gmail.com ... Then I need it to do the following lower(username) record inserts as myusername@gmail.com
I'm a bit stuck at the moment. I've googled and found LCase (), but I don't know if I'm barking up the wrong tree with that function.

I am required to manipulate a string in this way.For example ABCDEF)* to $ABCDEF). So I should find * and delete it and instead put $ in the beginning of string.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI am trying to update the greatest value in a column from a string of other column.
Ex: f the value is shown 10M+16M+25M-DG, then populate 25 only
so for that I had written query as follows:
update ANCHOR set IEL_STRAND_SIZE= greatest(
substr
(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','),
0,
length(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','))-1))
The output is given as 10,16,25,but not as 25.so how could i write it?Do I need to implement procedure or arrays for it.
How can i identify all the occurences of raise_application_error(-20XXX, '<the message>'); within all database objects, and replace them with other text?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am currently working on a Data Dictionary project where we need to run a few rules against the give data sources to see if they all comply together.
One of the rule is to check if the no. is negative or not. So for that what I tried to do was to check if first the field is number or not and then check on if it is negative or not.
This is the code I am currently trying on and is not looking good.
SELECT 1 FROM DUAL
WHERE decode(DECODE( TRANSLATE('-123.45','-0.123456789',''), NULL, 1,0), 1,substr('-123.45',1,1) ,' ' ) = '-'
Is there a way to find out the ending digits in a string?
Examples of input and outputs:
'ABC123' -> 123
'ABC' -> NULL
'123ABC' -> NULL
'123ABC456' -> 456
'123ABC456QP98' -> 98
I have figured a way to do it by doing Reverse and re-reversing using: reverse(regexp_substr(reverse(p_string), '[ [:digit:]]*'))
But I'm sure there is a way to do it backwards without using reverse function, which I am not able to properly put in the syntax.
How to find whether any character in a string is repeating or not
Eg: '123LH563' should return 'YES' , as 3 is repating there
'1234567' sould return 'NO' as there is no character which is repeating
I have a requirement, where i need to find and replace values in delimited string. For example, the string is
"GL~1001~157747~FEB-13~ CREDIT~ A~N~ USD~ NULL~".
The 4th column gives month and year. I need to replace it with previous month name. For example:
"GL~1001~ 157747~ JAN-13~ CREDIT~ A~N~USD~NULL~".
I need to do same for last 12 months. I thought of first devide the values and store it in variable and then after replacing it with required value, join it back. I just wanted to know if there is any better way to do it?

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.
Quote: I have a table(table name is names) with column as name(varchar) . I have the following data for name column.
Miss
Mississ
Mississipp
I would like to find a nearest match for Mississippi, that means sql should return row that contains Mississipp( Row #3)
If I try to find nearest match for Mississirr then sql should return row that has column value Mississ (Row#2)
Is this possible ? Here is the code for table creation and data.
create table names (name varchar2(20));
insert into names values('Miss');
insert into names values('Mississ');
insert into names values('Mississipp');

I want a code something of this sort:
select profilename from PROFILE where user_data like '%DATE_RULE!115%';
Output will be "Test A".Now, this is just a single value from RULES table used to find the data of PROFILE table.I will have to run the query on multiple values of RULES tables to find records containing a string format of sort "DATE_RULE!<rule_no>". How to search on WILD CARDs like these?
oracle 11 g xe
1) I want to pass date in '12 Dec 2012'(CHARECTER) while calling SP and in side SP i have declared parameter as DATE so I think it should not create any problem in any condition whether it is passed from oracle client or any other front end?
2) I have date in (date type variable) , how to convert it into char but it should be in iso format (i want iso format , so that it should not create any problem in any condition).
3) How to convert (date in char- in iso or any good format) into (date type variable) (so that it should not create problem and this is why i wanted char date in iso format).
4) If there is any good format and function to convert (date to char) and (char to date)?
Well the company i work for has just recently upgraded from Oracle 9i to 10g. We are having various problems with the migration, and with certain code breaking. My question regards this piece of code;
[code]
to_number(to_char('a_date','YYYY'))
[code]
There are various statements like the one above scattered throughout a query i am trying to fix. When run, the query returns an "invalid number ora-01722" error, which i know is caused by the above code.
if this method of converting from date, to character was discontinued from 9i to 10g?it just seems strange as there are a lot of statements like the one above and they must have worked at some point, but now i cant even get one to work on its own.
converting a string to date, my string looks like '01022013' '04022013', I tried to_date('01022013', 'dd-mm-yyyy') but couldn't work.
