Can we use regular expression to eliminate all characters other than -
A to Z
0 to 9
Special characters like - &,%,~,@,#,$,^,*,_,+,=,,/,<,>
Example
String - TEST@#_~````}{!!!12311HELLO
Expected result - TEST@#_~12311HELLO
how we can use regular expression to achieve this result.
, My HTML string is like below. select '<CityName>RICHMOND</CityName> <StateCd>ABCD CDE <StateCd/><CtryCd>CAN</CtryCd><CtrySubDivCd>BC</CtrySubDivCd>' Str from dual Desired Output is<CityName>RICHMOND</CityName><StateCd>ABCD CDE <StateCd/><CtryCd>CAN</CtryCd><CtrySubDivCd>BC</CtrySubDivCd> i.e.
want to remove those spaces from tag value area having only spaces otherwise leave as it is.implement the same using Regular expression.
What is the use of Regular Expression?

How do i use Substr and Regular expression here ?

I'm trying to match all sentences that contain words starting with given search tokens at least once. For example: if the given search token words are one and two then only sentences like "one plus one is two" should match. And should not match sentences like "one plus three is four". I was able to come up with this but I need a AND condition which I'm unable to get it right.
select count(*) from dual where regexp_like('one plus one is two', '(^|s)one|three', 'i');
Currently this gives a count of 1. But needs to give a count of 0 when the regexp is fixed.
search words : one two
one is less than two -> match
two is greater than one -> match
onetwo is union of two numbers -> match
onetwo is union of 2 numbers -> not a match as 'two' is not at the beginning of a word
one is less than three -> not a match as two is not present.
I have a Identifier column with start and stop dates along with description .
Two dates are separated by '-'. But the position of that character(-) is not constant always. Depending on the instr function I am able to divide the start and stop dates. But I am getting the performance problem because of huge data
I think the same logic will be implemented by regular expression also . How to write the equivalent logic by using regular expressions

(
TRANS_ID NUMBER(10),
TRANS_IDENTIFIER VARCHAR2(250)
) ;

View 4 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to perform a pattern check on a value ?
For example: 654321HD9
The pattern is 6 numbers, followed by 2 letters, followed by 1 number. The data type for the attribute is a string.
Examples of right or wrong
654321HD9 - correct value
654321HD - wrong value
654321111 - wrong value
HD1111111 - wong value
The pattern has to be as i mentioned above (6 number, 2 letters, 1 number) otherwise its wrong. My pattern does not cover all cases.
select REGEXP_SUBSTR('654321HD9', '[0-9]+[A-Za-z]+[0-9]+') from dual;
I would like to write a select that would return all places in DB that are commiting transaction.
E.g. package for testing:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE test.TEST_COMMIT AS
PROCEDURE THE_ONLY_COMMIT_IN_DB ;
END TEST_COMMIT;--not a match
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY test.TEST_COMMIT AS
[code]....
The select should return 4 rows with --ok.
SELECT *
FROM ALL_SOURCE ASO
WHERE
REGEXP_LIKE(ASO.TEXT,'commit(s*);','i' )
AND name = 'TEST_COMMIT'
I would like to use the REGEX_LIKE to check a number with up to two digits and at least one decimal point: Ex.10.11.1112 This is what I have so far.
if regexp_like(v_expr, '^(d{0,2})+(.[0-9]{1})?$') t
I need to search a specific pattern from a source code. In word, I need to check whether "getCode" has been called or not, for all the string inside double-quote("). Following are sample code lines -
1.->if(val==23){ month_desc = "a sample data"; }
2.->if(val==23){ month_desc = getCode("a sample data"); }
3.->if(val==23){ month_desc = "a " + getCode("sample data"); }
4.->if(val==23){ month_desc = getCode("sample data"); var2="sample data2";}
Now, expression should be such that it will return true during check for 1, 3 and 4, although, for 3 & 4 getCode has been called for part of the String.
I want to extract the data from the Clob field. I have the following table,create table test123(col1 char(24), col2 clob); And following data,

<Attribute DataType="Count" DisplayName="PrintServerPort"

The data will be available like this only, The same XML tag is used everywhere.

Creating a table
CREATE TABLE NEW_DATA
(INK_DATE DATE,
INV_ID NUMBER,
CUST_ID NUMBER,

Loading data into the table with

INV_ID,

My problem is that there are some rows (about 1%) where the columns INV_ID, CUST_ID, AMOUNT are containing non numeric characters and they end up in the BAD-file as errors.
Is there a way to make them end up in the discard file instead so I don't end up with errors but discards?Or even better load then into another table looking like this
(INK_DATE DATE,
INV_ID varchar2,
CUST_ID varchar2,
AMOUNT varchar2)

the above one succeed when i edit the case statement as follow

WHEN :ACCOUNTTYPE8='2001' THEN :REWARDAMOUNT8
WHEN :ACCOUNTTYPE9='2001' THEN :REWARDAMOUNT9

i got the Error sql loader 350 token longer than max allowable length of 258 chars .

How to use a table type variable with a regular query? For example, in my PL/SQL proc I have a table of employee names.
v_emp_tbl; --contains 'John','Sally','Ted'
Then I want to get names in a table called tbl_employees which are not in the pl/sql table. So if the table contains 'John','Sally','Ted',and 'Don' then I want to see 'Don'.
Not sure how to do this. Essentially I want something like:
Select emp_name into v_single_emp
from tbl_employees where emp_name NOT IN v_emp_tbl;
I know I can loop through the pl/sql table but I wanted to see if there is some other way.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am attempting to perform regular updates on several Oracle tables. The scripts performing the updates are scheduled to run every two minutes, get a value and update the table with that value.
The value doesn't always change but the scripts will still attempt to perform an update.
The same script is part of 7 objects, all of them are scheduled to run at the same time. They update the same table but never the same row.Even though the script is mostly the same on the 7 objects, they run completely independently of each other. The first object will usually perform the update without any problems but when it comes to the second object the script will time out.
I want to maintain the logical backup of all the application tables At regular intervals. Which option would i use?
