SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Whether Exact String Is Present / Not In Given String
Mar 14, 2013
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

When I pass the input as 'micky', then i should get the count of records as 4. I tried to use REGEXP_LIKE, but could not get the result.
Test Case:
DROP TABLE test1;
CREATE TABLE test1( pattern_series VARCHAR2(30));
INSERT INTO test1 VALUES ('qa_micky1');
INSERT INTO test1 VALUES ('qa_micky2');
[code].....
-- I should get the output as 4 not 8

I have this error (and solution):
ORA-02085: database link string connects to string
Cause: a database link connected to a database with a different name. The connection is rejected.
Action: create a database link with the same name as the database it connects to, or set global_names=false.
Where should I set global_names=false ?

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?

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 want to create a strung together list of ATM IDs for each ATM Location (as one ATM Location(City) can have many ATMs(term ids) this is to allow transaction facts to be not broken down on several lines depending on how many term ids there are for that ATM Location (whenever a new ATM is set-up, a new row is created in the ATM table).
I know I can string it together using a function but I do not have rights to do it so I created SQL in which I feed in the ATM Location as a parameter. I want to do this for ALL ATMs but that is taking forever - is there any way to optimize the below code.
Select max(term_id),atm_location from (Select
(SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(TERM_ID,' ' ) ) term_id,atm_location
from
(select term_id , atm_location
from ATM_TABLE
order by term_id asc
)
Start with TERM_ID IN (Select max(Term_ID) from ATM_TABLE group by
ATM_LOCATION )
