I would like to use character functions (LPAD, INSTR, SUBSTR, etc) to accomplish what i feel should be rather easy. I would like to take the following character strings:
'ADAM ST #3 S_109640'
'ALBANY AVE #5 & #6 S_AL5&6'
'ALBIN RD #10A S_123318'
And make them
'ADAM ST'
'ALBANY AVE'
'ALBIN RD'
As you can see, it probably boils down to using SUBSTR, INSTR, RTRIM, and LENGTH??
how do we know database character set is either single character set or multi character set?
While changing character-set from AL32UTF8 to WE8MSWIN1252 got "ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set".
Below are steps taken to resolve the issue -
ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET WE8MSWIN1252;
i got this error: ORA-12712: new character set must be a superset of old character set
below are the commands executed by me:
SQL> SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
SQL> CONNECT SYS/password AS SYSDBA;
SQL> STARTUP MOUNT;
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
SQL> ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET INTERNAL_USE WE8MSWIN1252;
SQL> SHUTDOWN;
SQL> STARTUP;
SQL> QUIT;
And its working...
I have not done it in proper order. Neither have done ccsscan. Still, no user reported any issues. Do my changes truncated the data?

I'm trying to insert a character from the extended ascii character set. Specifically, there's a company that has an accented e (�) in the name. Right now, the company name doesn't have the e at all, accent or no accent. So I'm trying to do an update, something like
update table1 set company_name='blah�" where company='blah'
It runs, but doesn't do the update. Even when I try to forcefully do an insert (instead of an update) I get nowhere; the accented is simply dropped. So the basic question is, how do you insert extended ascii characters into oracle?
I have one string 'SWAP_20120224_MEGAMART_MAR_Sales.csv'
I want to get the string between second underscore and third underscore i.e. 'MEGAMART'
How to achieve this in sql statement?
I am using C++ OCI LIB, to insert some report data from remote OCI client to oracle 11 server. This data is read by another process to create the report.The DB CHARSET is UTF-8. But the report tool expects the data to be ISO08859-1 encoded. So while inserting the data into the database i specify the following LANG and CHARSET for my table colulmn in client:
The TARGET DB CHARSET is UTF-8
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
size_t csid = 871; // UTF-8
OCIAtrSet((void *) bnd1p, (ub4) OCI_HTYPE_BIND,
*(void *)&csid*,
(ub4) 0,
(ub4)OCI_ATTR_CHARSET_ID, errhp);
This solution works for almost every case of ASCII and Extended ASCII Charest but we are facing issues if we have few specific characters to be inserted.f we are trying to insert single beta character [β] through client, the data goes empty to the column.
Beta Character details:
DEC OCT HEX BIN Symbol Description
223 337 DF 11011111 ß Latin small letter sharp s - ess-zed
DB Output after insert single β:
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)
---------------------------
But if the string is *"ββ"* everything work fine:
DB Output for "ββ":
select rawtohex(NAME) from PERSONS where EID=333;
RAWTOHEX(NAME)

and i used this to find which dentist had the least appointment
select min(count(dentist_ID)) as "Minimum Number of Appointments" from appointment group by dentist_ID;
and this shows..

if there's a way where I can show the dentist's ID that corresponds to this "min number of appointment" i tried doing
select dentist_ID, min(count(dentist_ID)) as "Minimum Number of Appointments" from appointment group by dentist_ID;
but it gives me this error

Trying to understand how Oracle DATE works and how it differs to TO_DATE in the below manner...
SELECT DATE '2012-10-25' FROM DUAL;
SELECT TO_DATE('2012-10-25','YYYY-MM-DD') FROM DUAL;
I've had a look through the Oracle Docs but can't find much on this. Basically I want to know how safe the first option is and if it does the same as the second. Also, where does DATE get the Format String from (NLS setting?). Can it be employed to compare a literal with a date that has a TIME portion set to something other than 12:00:00?
count the no: of emp working under each manager? and instead of manager number display the manager name
View 5 Replies View RelatedAgain i getting confused with conversion function especially Explicit data type conversions. some cases oracle server automatically converts the data to the required type. This is called IMPLICIT CONVERSION. Explicit conversions are done by using the conversion functions.
Oracle Explicit Data Type Conversions are
1 TO_CHAR
2 TO_DATE
3 TO_NUMBER
I have a table:
create table employee_function
(
id_emloyee number,
id_function number

with clients and their functions.
I want to extract all employes who has 2 functions (ex:id_function = 1 and id_function=2)
How can I rewrite this without the analytic functions?
SELECT employee_ID, first_name, salary,
RANK() OVER(ORDER BY salary desc) toprank_desc,
RANK() OVER(ORDER BY salary ASC) toprank_asc
FROM employees
ORDER BY first_name

I have simplified this for ease of understanding. I have a Data column and a Month_ID column like this:
Values Month_ID
--------- -------------------------------------------------------
AAA 1
BBB 2
I split this out to values per year like this
Value_2011 Value_2012 Month_ID
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
AAA 1
BBB 2
Now i am trying to get the max(Value_2011) keep (dense_rank Last order by Month_ID) but i get a NULL. I can understand its because the Month_ID accomodates all years but i only need it to look at Month_ID for 2011 and return me the last dense_rank value, how can i achieve this?
I tried a couple of different methods like Last_Value() but i have group by in my original statement and i think analytical functions dont like GROUP by if they are not part of it. How can i achieve this?
I have a table (events) with this structure: customer_id, event_id, ... For each customer_id there can be several rows in the table. I need to run a query of the format: select customer_id, expensive_function(customer_id),... from events.
The expensive_function to be applied to customer_id in the query is really expensive (a Java class calculating a check sum) and the events table has billions of rows.
Rows in events table have same customer_id for a few rows, then continue with a different customer_id ang again coming back to the first, etc.
I was thinking that it should be a way to trigger calculation of expensive_function only when customer_id changes, in order to reduce the number of calls. Only my knowledge about SQL is not going that far and I cannot use PL/SQL or any other procedural language, need to stick to standard SQL (or Oracle version of it).

I am building a reporting table using the count analytic function in order to count up several different attributes in one statement.What I find is that this method quickly eats up my TEMP space. This is 10gR2. I have attempted to use MANUAL workarea policy with as large ofsort_area_size as possible (2G) but that does not seem to have any effect on performance or TEMP usage. The RAW table is about 12G with 75 million rows. I am not that concerned about execution time, but rather TEMP usage.
--INSERT into <object>...

file_sid,filename,control_numb,processing_date,file_class,
vendor_id,vendor_desc,

I am not seeing any increase in onepass or multipass executions on the PGA during execution of this statement using...

'kb <= PGA < ' ||
(high_optimal_size+1)/1024|| 'kb'
ELSE to_char(low_optimal_size/1024/1024,'999999') ||
[code]...
I'd like to get a better explaination of how analytics use the instance resources and TEMP space. For example if I add
a count with a different window (such as the last two columns commented in the above query) I blow out my temp space (70G).
Is the critcal factor the use of distinct? or multiple windows? or something else?
I want to use my form only for query-functions.
When one enters the form, he can look up records either on Companyname or on Projectname. Therefor I have provided 2 buttons who pop-up a LOV. After eitherone is selected, the query has to be executed. There is a Master-Detail relationship between Company and Project.
My plsql for the company button:
declare
v_show_lov boolean ;
begin
enter_query;
v_show_lov := show_lov('LOVFIRMA');
if not v_show_lov then
[code]....
Plsql for the project button:
declare
v_show_lov boolean;
v_get_value number;
begin
v_show_lov := show_lov('LOVPROJECT');
if not v_show_lov then
[code]....
The first button only works when I go manually in Querymode first (by pressing F11). So I reckon my enter_query doesn't work? The property 'Fire in Enter-Query Mode' is Yes.
When I press it in non-query mode. It just fills in the LOV-values and the CCODE from company. It doesn't execute the query (probably because there is no enter_query).
When I enter query mode, the focus changes automatically to Company. And the LOV doesn't appear.
I have tried placing the enter_query on different places, just as the go_block and clear_block things, but there is always something wrong.
