SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Trim A Textfile
Aug 20, 2013
read the data and write into the textfile. I have a target text file with one column in varchar2(8000) length size. Whenever i write into this textfile, after the first row entered, for example, the first row string is 'H2001', then it will automatically spacing 7995 spaces. What I want is, when i enter the second row, it will auto write into the file in next row without all the spaces in row 1. I had been tried using trim, rpad, substr. and still don't get the thing that i want.

9845_6548_20080307
Need to change it to this
Column1

So I basically need to remove the leading part of the string using the "_" underscore as the delimiter.
So I thought this would work, but no luck.
SELECT LTRIM('_', Column1) "NewCOL" From table;

trim down the following sql to within 255 characters help:
select indate
from (
select case count(inputDate)
when 1 then inputdate
end as indate
from commLeaseBut5
[code]...
This sql is check a date field in the database for record which, if the date field is blank it should be a new record. Then the sql will assigned the current timestamp and stored to the new record. Otherwise, the sql will return the record timestamp for display.
