i'm trying to read a text file into an oracel table. I'm having issues with this statement FIELDS TERMINATED BY ' ' fields are separated by 2 spaces. How ever Oracle is not recognizing ' ' or " " as double space. It is treating as one space thus shifting all coulmns.
How can I represent double space to Oracle ?

Just now sysaux resized to 600m from 250m >>
Sysaux Tablespace is running low. WE SET AWR RETENTION TIME=60 DAYS. WE ARE NOT INTEREST TO EXTEND SYSAUX TABLESPACE SIZE.
Usually we take AWR weekly once. Some times we did ADDM report and ASH.
CODEsql>select TABLESPACE_NAME, FILE_NAME, BYTES/(1024*1024), AUTOEXTENSIBLE, MAXBYTES/(1024*1024) from dba_data_files where tablespace_name = 'SYSAUX';
TABLESPACE_NAME FILE_NAME BYTES/(1024*1024) AUT MAXBYTES/(1024*1024)
SYSAUX /u01/app/oracle/oradata/test/sysaux01.dbf 600 YES 32767.9844
CODEsql> @SCRIPT.SQ
TABLESPACE TOTAL_SPACE(MB) USED_SPACE(MB) FREE_SPACE(MB) % Used % Free
SYSAUX 600 248 352 41.33 58.67
1. What's the best SOLUTION ?
2. Can i shrink sysaux tablespace ?
3. I think , The size for all occupants in sysaux tablespace is less than 200 MB => how to find actual content of sysaux tablespace ?
4. What could be the reason for growth? Is there any way to free the space from sysaux table space?

We have to get some data from U98 (saixdbU98) in UTF-8 format in Excel sheet.We are having queries ready for this. These queries bring data which have Japanese characters.
But when we run the Select queries through pbrun (Power Broker) then in result Japanese chars are garbled. It comes in what process we have to follow to get the result in UTF-8 format in Excel sheet.
here is the code
--
set sqlblanklines on;
SET DEFINE OFF;
set linesize 1000
set long 1000000
set pages 50000

I want to remove more than one space from a string by excluding double quotes.
For example:
I/P: Item .getChildByType(" Agreement").getParent( ) .hasChildByType("Agreement ")
O/P : Item.getChildByType(" Agreement").getParent().hasChildByType("Agreement ")

I have an script.sql that receives as a parameter an string.
example:
@C:/myscript.sql "o'connor"
user_account_value varchar2(120) := '&1';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE "Select * from Table where column = :1 " USING user_account_value I am not sure how to deal with string that contains single quotes.
If the parameter were passed as : "o''connor" this will work
If the parameter is pass as: "o'connor" this will not work.
so my question is what options do I have to deal with dynamic queries and single quotes.
I tried replacing replace(myParameter,'''',''''''); but not working well.

I have a CLOB column in one of my tables (Table1), which stores very large (150MB+) XML files. I have new/another table (Table2) in the DB where I have an XMLType column. I want to take the CLOB data (xml) from table1 and remove some part of that and store the rest into to the XMLType column of Table2.
I want to remove the data inside the XML tags
<Attachments>
very long data goes here... which I don't need, which should be replaced with a single word
</Attachments>
store the CLOB to XMLType column after removing the unwanted data.

replace the first 5 commas with the character '|' in the below string:
'Red, White, Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, Yellow, Gold and many others, like Black and Silver'
I tried:
SELECT regexp_replace('Red, White, Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, Yellow, Gold and many others, like Black and Silver',
',','|',1,5) from dual
but it only replaces the 5th comma.

I am using an Oracle view and package to extract data from my DB to build an XML file on the fly.
My problem is that on very rare occasions, an invalid XML character will be in the database. This, of course, causes my XML file to error.
My question is: What are the possible ways to remove invalid XML characters when selecting out of a DB field? Any function that has been written for this type of thing, or is a VERY long 'translate' more of what I should be doing?

I have a following table,
create table test1(col1 varchar2(20));
insert into test1 values('4711-3/01');
I believe we need to use Translate function to get rid of special characters, But I would not be knowing what sort of special charecters which appear in the string, In that case how do I use Translate?

I am on 11g.
I need to remove the alpha characters from a string, leaving only numbers, but I am getting unexpected results:
SQL> SELECT TRANSLATE('3N', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', NULL) a FROM DUAL;
A
-
I thought this would leave the 3 from the 3N, but it is returning an empty string. For my application, the string '3N' could be any length, will only contain letters and numbers, and the letters will always come at the end, but there could be more than one letter
VALID INPUT samples:

I got the error ORA-01653: unable to extend table <OWNER.TABLE_NAME> by <BYTE> in tablespace <TABLESPACE> in my production database. But I could see 4GB of free space available in the tablespace. But this was resolved after increasing the Tablespace size by 1 more GB. So I wanted to know how I can I reclaim the 4GB space ?
While searching in internet I got few tips like there will be a fragmentation in the tablespace, the free space available in the tablespace may not be a continuous block. To avoid this we need to reorganize the tables using ALTER TABLE <TABLE_NAME> MOVE <TABLESPACE>; command.
But in my tablespace there are huge number of tables exists I cannot do reorganization of all the tables. So I need to know how to identify particularly what are the tables has more fragmentation? so that I can go for reorganizing those tables only.
My Database version in 9.2.0.7
Tablespaces are Locally Managed

I have a tablespace of size 512 GB. On the basis of tables and indexes created on it, the space consumed should be 319GB but when I am retrieving the free space size , I am getting only 124GB of free space. That means around 70GB of space is missing.
