PL/SQL :: Find And Replace Value In Delimited String
Sep 4, 2013I 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?

Sep 26, 2013I have a string. For example "I have too many files. There are 1000 files. I have to delete them." Sometimes the string can be "I have too many files. There are 115003 files. I have to delete them." Whatever the srting is, I need to change the string to "I have too many files. There are 10 files. I have to delete them." replace the "1000" or "115003" to "10". This portion of the string is always an integer. I use Oracle 11G2.

Function To Replace All Occurrences Of A String?
Jan 9, 2007Years ago, someone created a database in Oracle that was carried over and now sits in Oracle 10g. I am developing an application that queries this database and returns the result as XML.
Many (thousands) of rows have an item description that contains an ampersand. I want each of these pieces of data to have it written as & amp; (had to add a space so it would show up here, but you know what I mean) instead of &, but I don't feel like doing thousands of UPDATEs to change this.
Does Oracle have any global find/replace functions that I can call? I'd rather do one update statement that replaces all occurances of & with & amp; but I can't seem to find a function that will do this.
I'm thinking something that would work like:
UPDATE table SET column1=REPLACE(column1,oldstr,newstr);

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Whether Exact String Is Present / Not In Given String
Mar 14, 2013I'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
SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Rows With Certain Values And Replace Them In The Same Script
Jun 17, 2010I have a large table with a few billion rows. I need to find ITEM_NAME values in ITEM_MASTER table containing " " (spaces) and replace them with other values. This has to be done within the same script. The replacement values could be any characters or numbers, but not spaces.
The whole reason for this table is testing big databases, so it does not matter what it contains. The reason I need to replace them is that this table will be dumped to a space delimited flat file and spaces within values are not acceptable.

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Manipulate Greater Than 24 Hour Clock In Oracle
Jul 14, 2011I have an Oracle application that deals with a 29 hour clock. so the days begin at 5am instead of midnight. I am trying to get data from a table where time is up to certain number of hours, but when it reached the 00 clock my whole query returns no records, even though there is plenty of records before the midnight hour, because the data is saved as lets say 2530 instead of 0130
I am using this
SELECT *
FROM WORK.WORK_UNIT
WHERE (to_char (current_garage) = :entry_blk.curr_garage
OR 'all' = :entry_blk.curr_garage)
AND route >= 0 AND run >= 0
AND ((package_id > 0 and work_code = 99) OR
(package_id is null and work_code = 1))
and Nvl (Emp_No, 0) = 0
AND work_date = :entry_blk.p_work_date
AND on_time <= TO_CHAR(SYSDATE + :Entry_Blk.up_to_hour/24, 'HH24MI')
since oracle deals with a 24hour clock, my code doesn't seem to work if there is data for after midnight (00 hour). I am using :Entry_Blk.up_to_hour/24 to determine up to how many hours I want to see data, i.e.
on_time <= TO_CHAR(SYSDATE + 2/24, 'HH24MI')
will give me data up to 2 hours

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Find Greatest Values In A String
Jul 22, 2011I 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.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Way To Find Out Ending Digits In A String?
Dec 5, 2012Is 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.
