SQL & PL/SQL :: Multi Byte Conversion
Jun 2, 2012
My application spools the data from database into file and file is fixed length. My application working fine when database has single byte characters. But I am getting fields postion misposition and length mismatch in spooled line when data base has Multi byte characters(ê).
I want to convert the multi byte characters into single byte while spooling the data( ê ==> e)
The below query has converted the multi byte to single byte character. But actual value is modified into lower case.
####################################################
select utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2((nlssort(c.Name,'nls_sort=binary_ai'))) sbyte, '|'
c.Name

We just migrated our technology platform on one of the six servers yesterday on production d/b as follows :
OAS Server - Linux Patch Applied (2.6.18-53.el5 #1 SMP Wed Oct 10 16:34:19 EDT 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
D/B Server - From Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 to Oracle 10.2.0.4.0
Batch Server - From OpenVMS to Red Hat Linux
Post Migration, we are facing some issues with Oracle Forms 10g, Text Items which contains one or more than one multibyte characters, is displaying only # character in the entire text box instead of what is stored in the database. In other words, information in the database is stored correctly. Before Migration everything was working perfectly fine.
One other thing which I would like to tell here is that we compile forms using the following environment settings:
NLS_LANG_SEMANTICS=CHAR
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8

I have oracle 10g database running on Sun Solaris. My database character set is AL32UTF8. Our user wants to store a double byte character and an image, I want to know what the column type should be using for these.

i am fairly new in the oracle arena, but what would cause a statement such as
ALTER TABLE TEST_TABLE MODIFY text_field1 varchar2(100) DEFAULT 'testval' NULL
to change a column's type from VARCHAR2(100) to VARCHAR2(100 byte)? i found a few mentions of the 100 byte concept online but nothing that jumped out at me.

Some app (wich I can't touch) stores a value that I need to modify with a trigger or even with a view.
Original value: 7B751BF0 (2071272432 in decimal)
Stored value: 4028331387 (F01B757B in hexa)
To make things short, I'm getting 4028331387 and I need to convert it to 2071272432.

I have a table datatype number (12,10) that I am reading out of. I am taking the value from this source table and inserting it into a destination table of datatype number (12,15).
I do not have the ability to alter the tables. How can i convert this number so i can insert. I am currently getting the error "ORA-01438: value larger than specified precision allowed for this column"
I am trying to use the to_number, but it not working. How can i format this number field so i can read it from source where i have number (12,10) and insert it successfully in a higher precision table of number(12,15)

Again i getting confused with conversion function especially Explicit data type conversions. some cases oracle server automatically converts the data to the required type. This is called IMPLICIT CONVERSION. Explicit conversions are done by using the conversion functions.
Oracle Explicit Data Type Conversions are
1 TO_CHAR
2 TO_DATE
3 TO_NUMBER

I would like to find a way to do a multi row insert in Oracle similar to the examples below ... if possible.
Note that I need it to work with constant values and not values selected from (another) table (ref examples below).
In MySQL and DB2 I can do this:
insert into pager (PAG_ID,PAG_PARENT,PAG_NAME,PAG_ACTIVE)
values (8000,0,'Multi 8000',1),(8001,0,'Multi 8001',1)
In MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite I can do this:
insert into pager (PAG_ID,PAG_PARENT,PAG_NAME,PAG_ACTIVE)
select 8000,0,'Multi 8000',1 union all select 8001,0,'Multi 8001',1

I need to select multiple columns but only have 2 of them which are distinct. For instance if i have
userid lastname firstname city country time
1 jones tom lon gb 2:25
2 wall paul la usa 2:30
1 jones tom lon gb 2:50
3 smith jane ny usa 2:55
what i would want to do is select all the columns but avoid duplicate lastname-firstname combination rows. The problem is if i use a group by i have to include all the columns and because time is different i will get tom jones twice. a way of getting round this so i can select all the columns but only 1 row of tom jones.

My company uses Remedy which stores date/time as an integer. I use the following formula to convert it to a readable date:
TO_CHAR(TO_DATE('01/01/1970', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')+ ((createdate - 4*3600)/(60*60*24)),'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM') as Create_Date
I have to use the "4*3600" in order to get the date to show up correctly, but even then the date sometimes comes up wrong. If the date occurs in the morning, then the date shows up as the previous day. I am sure this is probably due to the offset I am adding in the above formula. If I don't add the 4 hour offset, then the date shows up 4 hours off.

This is my query:
DELETE FROM GR_GUEST WHERE GUEST_NAME='Ambassador Jack Binns bring Patrick Clawson' AND RESERVATION_ID_FK=21635
It gives an ORA-01460 which is "unimplemented or unreasonable conversion requested"Removing the " AND RESERVATION..." gives the same error.
The problem is that GUEST_NAME is a VARCHAR (150) and RESERVATION_ID_FK is an INT so I don't see where any conversion is coming in.I had changed the name a little bit as it used to a (, ) and a : in the GUEST_NAME. I thought that might be causing the issue so I removed them with a REPLACE through an UPDATE query. However, the record still needs to be deleted.
It should be a simple query as it happens on this table all the time, so I don't know why this one is different.

First to Create a new column of the desired type and copy the current column data to the new type using the appropriate type constructor.

I am converting data from an old paradox table to a new oracle table, one of the problems im having is incompatibility with date and time formats:
some columns contain times in the format : "00:00:00" eg..... "15:00:00"
some columns have date in the format: "dd/mm/yyyy" eg....... "21/08/2000"
some columns have time and date eg.. "05/09/2000 15:49:39"
Currently I have the data held in tables within an access database, and in CSV format.
eg, I have dates like 03/04/2010 which i need to be 03-APR-10....
how I can get the following into Oracle date formats? there is over 1000 records so manual conversion is out of the question

I recently became involved with databases, and i've came across with a little obstacle. I have strings that represent a date, they are very oddly formatted and need to store them as dates. the string format looks like this: 'Monday, May the 13th of 2001'
How can i effectively convert them to DATE type?
