Is it possible to replace datatype of column of one table with another table's column datatype using %type like below
SQL>create table test1 (v1 varchar2(10));
SQL>create table test2 (v1 test1.v1%type);
I have been creating lot many threads around the same problem, however i thought i knew but realized I do not know or else do not know how to. I have created object type with an attribute READINGVALUE NUMBER(21,6)...How can i use type attribute on this object while declaring variable.....can we use type attribute on NESTED TABLES, similar to the db tables?
example
CREATE TYPE READING AS OBJECT(READINGVALUE NUMBER(21,6));
CREATE TABLE INTERVALREADINGS OF TYPE READING;
I am updating a table column which is xml datatype and am getting above error.Below is the process what i did. since the xml is too large i split them into small chunks.

I have a requirement that i should list out all the table names which are all using timestamp datatype in a specified schema. Is there any way to find those table names by using any system tables.

I have a table with structure as:
CREATE TABLE XML_TABLE_1
(
ID NUMBER NOT NULL,
SOURCE VARCHAR2(255 CHAR) NOT NULL,
XML_TEXT SYS.XMLTYPE,
CREATION_DATE TIMESTAMP(6) NOT NULL
[code].....
- So HOW do I find the total size occupied by this table. Does BINARY storage work as LOB storage. i.e. I need to consider USER_LOBS as well for this. OR foll. will work
select segment_name as tablename, sum(bytes/ (1024 * 1024 * 1024 )) as tablesize_in_GB
From dba_segments
where segment_name = 'XML_TABLE_1'
and OWNER = 'SCHEMANAME'
group by segment_name ;
- Also if I am copying it to another table of same structure as:
Insert /*+ append */ into XML_TABLE_2 Select * from XML_TABLE_1.
Then how much space in ROllbackSegment do I need. Is it equal to the size of the table XML_TABLE_1?
I have a table with an attribute set to auto increment
how can I insert into the table without specifying the value of that attribute?
on this query. I need to get a particular value from a column which is a BLOB datatype. Here is the sample
data ID TESTDATA1 Best Buy
00001234 12222 30 00 2
Lowes 00001234 12222 100 00 3
Walmart 00001234 12222 129 00 4
abc 00001234 12222 5000 00 5
Toshiba 00001234 12222 21 00 6
abcdefghij 00001234 12222 49 00
Where '00001234' is the Invoice , '12222' is Netamount field and highlighted in red is the $ amount for that invoice.
The only data i need query to return 12222 (netamount)= $amount. I tried using substr select substr((TESTDATA),19,26)test from TABLEA; But this gives me the only the first row but not other amount which have different positions.
Here is the desired output
OutputID TESTDATA 1
12222 30 2 12222 100 3
12222 129 4 12222 5000 5
12222 21 6 12222 49
i am running one query which is here
INSERT INTO shiftsample (Empid, PPDate, Inpunch, outpunch)( SELECT Emp_ID, PDate, In_Punch, Out_Punch FROM ProcessDailyData WHERE PDate = to_char(2012-10-15,'yyyy-MM-dd') AND Emp_ID = '00000001' );
in this query pdate has timestamp datatype and in shift sample ppdate column has date type. so i am not able to insert value from process daily data table.
getting this error.

How to increase datatype of the column which already has data i.e. varchar 10 to 25 bytes
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to decrease the size of testid column of number datatype in my "test" named table from size 20 to 15 and the data of maximum size is of 10 digits. but oracle throws an error "ORA-01440: column to be modified must be empty to decrease precision or scale". i cant understand why it is happening?
what is the reason behind it even though new size is maximum than the maximum size of existing data. but when i decrease the size of "varchar2" then oracle does not through any error.
I have a table defined where some columns are of the datatype RAW(16). In fact these are foreign keys to other tables. Our company has a policy that all primary keys are of the datatype RAW(16). Not much I can do about that.
Now I want to retrieve all columns of a certain row in that table and just visualize the foreign keys in hex format. All values are filled out nicely, except the columns with datatype RAW(16). Is there something special I have to do to retreive and display these? I defined an item as text-field for these, but this doesn't seem to be working...
I'm using APEX 4.1.1.00.23 at this moment...
I have to change the datatype of a column from CLOB to varchar2, without changing the order of the columns. The table has no data.
I could find any other way other than dropping the CLOB columns and then adding new columns with varchar2 datatype. But this changes the order of the columns in the table.

1. If i'll do drop type FORCE what will happen to the dependent object(might be a table for example) ?
2. I understand that this type is already assigned to some object, but i can't seem to find out which one.
how do i find out which object is depending on the type i want to create or replace?
I have created the below types and oracle objects.
create or replace type T_SETDEL_RESP_REC as object
(
respCode number,
respDesc varchar2(255)
)
--
create or replace type T_EMA_NP_RANGE_LNPTICKET_REC as object
(
ticket number
)
create or replace type T_RANGE_TICKET_TAB AS TABLE OF T_RANGE_TICKET_REC
The following type is created in the Package specification
type t_resp_rec IS RECORD
(
resp_code number,
resp_desc varchar2(255)
);
I have the following two procedures
Procedure getResponse(p_call_request_id IN number, p_resp_rec IN t_setdel_resp_rec,
p_range_ticket_tab IN t_range_icket_tab, p_endof_event IN varchar)
PROCEDURE ProcessResponse(p_call_request_id IN number, p_resp_rec IN t_resp_rec,
p_ticket_tab IN t_ticket_tab, p_endof_event IN varchar2)
The get Response procedure is a wrapper procedure exposed to Java to pass values. The Process Response procedure is a main procedure where all logics and business rules are handled.
The Problem is:
How can I pass the values from get Response procedure to Process Response procedure. So that rules and validations are applied. Please note the p_ticket_tab may have many ticket numbers corresponding to p_call_request_id.
Values E.g. :
p_call_request_id = 1
p_resp_rec (1234, 'Error found')
p_range_ticket_tab (1,2,3,4,5)
p_endof_event = 'Y'
I have a table that has column with BLOB datatype. I am trying read only the inputted String from the BLOB datatype column. I have used the below query,
SELECT utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(column1) FROM TAB1
and it gives the result as
<H2><FONT color=#cc0000><EM><U>test</U></EM></FONT></H2>
However I would like to extract only the string "test" which is inputted. Is there any build-in function in oracle which will satisfy this requirement?
I am trying to load the data from .csv file into the table using SQL Loader.
The table has the following schema:
src_id : number,
dest_id : number,
range: intsys.interval_typ --- > a type containing (lower,upper)
payload : varchar2(100)
The loader.ctl file is :
load data
infile *
append
into table sb_packet
fields terminated by "," optionally enclosed by ' " '
(src_id,dest_id,range,payload)
BEGINDATA
3,32,intsys.interval_typ(10043,142703),"misc data"
When I use the following this ctl file to transfer the data, i get the following error:
SQL*Loader-418: Bad datafile datatype for column RANGE
When i tried to drop a type using below command , i received errors
DROP TYPE JAM_ACAS_MSG_TYPE

I need to modify the column type that already has data in it, i need it change varchar to number then The datas entered have $ and , (e.g $3,200). I need the $ and , removed with column type set to numbers.
When i currently do this i get the following error:
The TABLE operation was not successful for the following reason:
ORA-01439: column to be modified must be empty to change datatype
I've tried unloading the data and loading the data using the spreadsheet, cut and past and csv file but both give me more errors, so i just want that one column modified.
