I have a table with modifieddate column with 'DATE' data type.I am facing date format exception and tried with to_char, to_date but its throwing invalid number exception. how to format date accordingly.
SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE modifieddate > '31-Dec-2011 18:30';
ORA-01722: invalid number
01722. 00000 - "invalid number"
Is there a seeded function by which I can check all the rows which stored dates in varchar column.
I have a table say test (test_data varchar2(100));
Now I will insert all types of records into the table varchar,number dates and then i will write q query to etch all those records only which has dates only
INSERT INTO test(1);
INSERT INTO test('ABC');
INSERT INTO test(SYSDATE);
INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY'));
INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
INSERT INTO test('15/01/2012');

I have a table with VARCAHAR2 data type column, I am unable to update that column with the following data.
UPDATE we set sname='(([Emp].Job.Catageory
IN 'SALES,COMPUTER,SCIENCE,TELESERVICE')
AND ([Employee].IDtype IN 'ABC'))'
I am getting the error "ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended"
i have one table emp in this table i have the column eno,ename,hiredate and i have data also in this table.
my eno colum data type is number so now i have to change this colum data type from number to varchar2.
if yes how can when i am trying to change this colum data type i got this error
Failed to commit: ORA-01439: column to be modified must be empty to change datatype.
I have an index on column of table which of data type varchar2. While selecting data from that table I am using following scenarios in where on the indexed column
like '%abc%'
like 'abc%'
like '&abc'
Will be the corresponding index will be for those cases?
I am working with Oracle 8i and I have a problem while applying the below query:
select to_char(ENTRYDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') from TBL_BANDWIDTH_READS
where ENTRYDATE > sysdate-1
and rownum <10
03-03-2011 00:00:00
03-03-2011 00:00:00
03-03-2011 00:00:00
03-03-2011 00:00:00
[code].....
The time appears as 00:00:00. I said it's something weird because if I take the where condition off, then something like this appears:
select to_char(ENTRYDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') from TBL_BANDWIDTH_READS
12-22-2006 13:13:27
12-22-2006 13:13:27

12-22-2006 13:13:27
12-22-2006 13:13:27
I am using the same query on a different table and there's no problem on it:
select to_char(ENTRYDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') from TBL_XX_PROGRAM
where ENTRYDATE > sysdate -10 and rownum <10
03-03-2011 17:06:48
03-03-2011 17:06:48
03-03-2011 16:59:08
03-03-2011 16:59:08
03-03-2011 12:04:21
I checked the DDL of both tables and the only difference is that the TBL_XX_PROGRAM have the ENTRYDATE field defined as not null and the ENTRYDATE on the TBL_BANDWIDTH_READS does not have the same constraint, could it affect?

First, I'm aware that the equals (=) operator is a "comparison operator compares two values for equality." In other words, in an SQL statement, it won't return true unless both sides of the equation are equal. For example:
SELECT * FROM Store WHERE Quantity = 200; The LIKE operator "implements a pattern match comparison" that attempts to match "a string value against a pattern string containing wild-card characters."
For example:
SELECT * FROM Employees WHERE Name LIKE 'Chris%';
Here,I query about date type data on ORACLE database, I found the following, when I write select statment in this way:
SELECT ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT_ID, ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE FROM ACCOUNT WHERE ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE LIKE '30-JUL-07';
I get all rows I'm looking for. but when I use the sign equal =
instead :SELECT ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT_ID, ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE FROM ACCOUNT WHERE ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE = '30-JUL-07';
I get nothing even though nothing is different except the equal sign.
I have a table with two columns called startsem and gradsem they are both CHAR(3). Within those colums are rows that are listed as SemesterYear. For example, F09 is Fall 2009, S09 Spring 2009, and M09 is Summer 2009. I would like to create a constraint that says GradSem must be greater than StartSem b/c no one can travel back in time to graduate. However, as you know you can compare S09 > F09 because it will treat it as a string. I thought I could use a substring and compare the last two digits as a year and that would work but how do I compare the semesters as a time frame? Because in my schema F > S because Spring 2011 comes before Fall 2011 but in reality F < S because to Oracle it is a string and the ASCII value of F is less than S. I cannot chage the coding of the database so editing the rows so they are more date friendly is not an option.
So how can I modify this database to acruately compare StartSem and GradSem.

How can we partition a table based on date if it does not have a date column.
Actually I have to compare two tables on daily basis and fetch few rows from those two tables and enter it to a third table.But both these tables does not have a date column.
I am confused if i need to alter those tables and add date column or if there is some way in which i can compare the data from the two tables for that particular day only and not the whole table data.

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);
Now i have a problem which i am facing for the first time. The problem is:
I have created a table test1 with two column of number data type and the column witdth is 25. Then enter the data but when i select the recrod it does not display the column data as it was entered.
SQL> create table test1
2 (
3 startno number(25),
4 endno number(25)
5 );
Table created.
SQL> insert into test1
[code]...
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 existing table which needs to be copy to new table with object using the cursor. The exist table has a rank column which has some duplicate rank, which need to be remove and provide a series of numbers, like 1,2,3,4,5,...
create type UNIVERSITY as object (
U_RANK number(2),
U_SCHOOL varchar2(150),
U_COUNTRY varchar2(150),
U_SCORE number(3)
)

I'm trying to work out how to take a table like this:
IDDate
12502-Feb-07
12516-Mar-07
12523-May-07
12524-May-07
12525-May-07
33302-Jan-09
33303-Jan-09
33304-Jan-09
33317-Mar-09
And display the data like this:
IDPeriodPeriod StartPeriod End
125102-Feb-0702-Feb-07
125216-Mar-0716-Mar-07
125323-May-0725-May-07
333102-Jan-0904-Jan-09
333217-Mar-0917-Mar-09
As you can see, it's split the entries into date ranges. If there is a 'lone' date, the 'period start' and the 'period end' are the same date.
We are working on a performance tuning aspect, where in a table has a LONG datatype and number of round trips are increasing based on the number of rows fetched.i.e one round trip for every row.
Background.
1. created a table with LONG data type.
2. inserted bulk load of data.
3. set auto trace on and executed below tests..
SQL> select count(*) from test_long;
COUNT(*)
----------
6110
SQL> desc test_long
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
ID NUMBER
TESTLONG LONG
[code].....
but on LONG column, irrespective of the array size the round trips does not reduce.
How to find date and time of a column in table ?
say for example there is a column called 'date_txn' in a table .When i select that particular column it display output as 'June 2013'.But i want output "with date and time".
I want to insert XML data into my ( Oracle 11G Release 1 ) XMLType table using OCCI. I'm getting
ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column
My XML data size is around 1.5 to 2MB. I have also tried using setMaxParamSize before calling the setString method. But, still I'm getting the same exception.
How to resolve this issue?
