Windows :: Arabic Text Saved Using Odp In Varchar2 Field Becomes ????
Jan 6, 2011we have 2 databases with AR8MSWIN1256 characterset (arabic). our client machine has English windows installed. our .NET application, which runs on the client machine, using ODAC and it reads and writes from one db to another db. We have no problems with nvarchar fields containing arabic, but with varchar fields it seems that it reads the data just fine - we can see it in GUI.but when it writes the data to the second db, arabic becomes question marks. We tried to set client NLS_LANG in registry to AR8MSWIN1256 and to WE8MSWIN1252. It doesnt work.

Sorting Strings As Integers
Jun 10, 2007The db field is a string-type field that hold strings such as:
'1234'
'753'
'textstring'
'345'
Obviously, if you sort it, it'll be stored as a string such as:
'1234'
'345'
'753'
'textstring'
My client wants it so the numbers sort as integers, followed by string-like strings (sorted alphabetically), so it's like.
'345'
'753'
'1234'
'textstring'
Is there a quick and dirty SQL-only way to doing this in Oracle?

to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY')) as Year,
to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY'))||to_number(to_char(testdate,'MM')) as MonthyearApex now sorts:
