SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Extended ASCII Characters From A String
Sep 19, 2013
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'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 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.

replace the first 5 commas with the character '|' in the below string:
'Red, White, Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, Yellow, Gold and many others, like Black and Silver'
I tried:
SELECT regexp_replace('Red, White, Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, Yellow, Gold and many others, like Black and Silver',
',','|',1,5) from dual
but it only replaces the 5th comma.

I am looking for a SQL query which checks for special character(s) in a string and remove them if any.
for e.g: input string : 'ABCD $ & * # 123 Test'
expected output should be in upper case : 'ABCD123TEST'
we do not know the position of special characters and also what kind of special characters will come as input.

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

I have a following table,
create table test1(col1 varchar2(20));
insert into test1 values('4711-3/01');
I believe we need to use Translate function to get rid of special characters, But I would not be knowing what sort of special charecters which appear in the string, In that case how do I use Translate?

I am on 11g.
I need to remove the alpha characters from a string, leaving only numbers, but I am getting unexpected results:
SQL> SELECT TRANSLATE('3N', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', NULL) a FROM DUAL;
A
-
I thought this would leave the 3 from the 3N, but it is returning an empty string. For my application, the string '3N' could be any length, will only contain letters and numbers, and the letters will always come at the end, but there could be more than one letter
VALID INPUT samples:
4
25
11F
361NG
8ABC

I 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.

I 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.

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?
