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.
select EMP_NO from employees;
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).
how to proceed?
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?
View 14 Replies View RelatedI 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)
∑[((36)^3 * 10)mod 731) + ((36)^2 * 28)mod 731)+
((36)^1 * 18)mod 731) + ((36)^0 * 22)mod 731) ]
= 182+ 469 + 648 + 22
= 1321
is it possible that it pick the field value and convert it into numeric form.
How can I find the last numeric value in the alphanumeric string?
Example:
LS14160220SPAD show me 0
MN23160224N show me 4
SP34524442 show me 2

what i feel is that oracle Database UTF8 or AL32UTF8 characterset does not support htp package properly. When i run the code on another characterset, it runs errorfree except in UTF8 or AL32UTF8.
I have made a report with sql injection. there is no problem with the report. but when i run from the form with following string it gives error.
:global.where_clause := 'where request_type = 5 and request_status in (3, 4, 5) and list_approval_date is null';
And no error is there if i passed the string as
:global.where_clause := 'where request_status in (3, 4, 5) and list_approval_date is null';
REQUEST_TYPE is a database column and it is of number type.
i am getting above error while doing

I have a date saved in varchar2 colomn.
how can I convert the vaules into date, so I can use the date to compare data.
Ex: I have the value '20-03-2007 05:31:29', but this value is saved as varchar2.
how can I take from this value the date '20-03-2007' as date format?

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 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.

I have a varchar2 column that contains something like this:
10100010
Each digit represents a flag that corresponds to a certain label:
1 - Bananas
0 - Oranges
1 - Apples
0 - Tomatos
0 - ..
0 - ..
1 - Kiwi
0 - Others
What I want to do is, translate '10100010' into the string '(Bananas,Apples,Kiwi)' using SQL-only. As a bonus it would be nice if the string is completely empty if all flags are '0', so no '()'.
basically I have to insert in a date field a string that is a year(four characters).
The problem is that I have to convert a string in date obtaining just a year. How can i do this?
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 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

,CdrStart DATE 'YYYY DDD SSSSS'
[code].......,
Next is my trigger
create or replace TRIGGER BNUMBER_SUMMARY_INS

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

We are getting an error : a non numeric was found where a numeric was expected sometimes when this statement is executed:

however if i replace the * with the column names as shown below it seems to work fine without giving an error
insert into training (a,b,c) select a,b,c from temp_training where class_id='xyz'
wanted to understand the subtle difference between the 2 statements
