I have simple program .It reads binary file and writes all , what reads into another file
WHILE my_lenght_help <= my_lenght LOOP
UTL_FILE.GET_RAW ( g_read_file , my_bufer_read ,200 );
UTL_FILE.PUT_RAW ( g_write_file , my_bufer_read );
my_lenght_help:= my_lenght_help + 200;
END LOOP;
my question. How I can change "my_bufer_read" between UTL_FILE.GET_RAW and UTL_FILE.PUT_RAW to make writable file ascii
How to get binary data from Geometry column?
I want to read GEOMETRY COLUMN data as binary, using GET_WKB() method. I'm able to read character data by using GET_WKT().
But our requirement is to read data in binary format and display it.

I have a data synch procedure where I am extracting data from an Oracle table and inserting it into a SQL Server table. The Oracle column is VARCHAR2 and the receiving SQL Server column is Binary. I am receiving a conversion error. I have tried HEXTORAW in the Oracle procedure but it does not work. What data type can I use.

Then how much space in ROllbackSegment do I need. Is it equal to the size of the table XML_TABLE_1?
I want to get NUMBER value from RAW bytes in PL/SQL...For example, single-byte value 0xED in RAW variable should became 237 in NUMBER variable.
We used to use:ascii(utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2(utl_raw.substr(p_data,i,1))), but this seems working in DBs with single-byte character sets only, and now I am on DB with AL32UTF8 character set...
I would be happy if the following function returns 237, not 0:
function mmm (
r RAW -- ed (237 in decimal)
) return NUMBER
is
n NUMBER;

I can't think of a clue how to get the desired results.
I have table column with varchar2 type. I need to convert the strings in this column to ascii values. Now I know Oracle function ascii() converts a character to ascii values. But it just converts the first character of the string and ignore the others. I need to convert the whole string to ascii values. For example, if I need to convert the string "USA", the result should be '858365' (as in U decimal value is 85, S decimal value is 83 and A decimal is 65).
I think I need to use instr() function and also PL/SQL to pass all these strings through a cursor and then use a loop but I'm still confused about it.
I'm looking for a way to insert tabs (ASCII 009) in SQL output, to make the output file Excel-ready without manual intervention.
Here's what I need :
SQL> set output myfile.xls;
SQL> select article,TAB,count(*) from sales group by article having count(*) > 0;
Instead of TAB I can insert a dollar sign, but then I have to replace it using a file editor, which is a manual operation. I have been looking for an OpenVMS application which can replace all dollar signs by tabs in a given file, with no luck.
I created a DCL procedure (simplified from GSR.COM which I found on the internet) that reads every record in the output file and substitutes dollar signs by tabs, but it doesn't work with tabs, only with "normal" characters.
Even if I use the OpenVMS editor to insert ASCII 009 tab characters in the SQL statement (using the GOLD 009 GOLD SPEC INS key combination), SQL apparently automatically substitutes tabs by full stop signs in the output :
select article,' ',date from werknemers limit to 2 rows;
ARTICLE DATE
TROUSERS . 12-28-1974
SHIRTS . 10-08-1973
2 rows selected
I can use SQL to create a CSV file (comma separated values) which can be opened by Excel :
"trousers",20
"shirts",30
But the user has to open this file from within Excel and make a number of choices (separator, text delimiter, header row) before (s)he gets to see the desired columnar spreadsheet. That's not automation : I need the generated SQL output file to be double-clickable so that it opens as a columnar spreadsheet immediately.
why the REPLACE function is not replacing. I assume it has something to do with the ASCII value being zero.

I have a table like mentioned below
create table test1( test_no number, test_description varchar2(100));
insert into test1 values (1,'ABC£¥');
insert into test1 values (2,'BCD£¥');
Now I am selecting from the above table and the expected rest it should have shown is as shown below
TEST1
-----------------------
TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABC£¥
2 BCD£¥
But instead of showing the extended ascii characters, it is showing some different characters as shown below
select * from test1;
TEST1

TEST_NO TEST_DESCRIPTION
1 ABCLY
2 BCDLY

My application has several update-able forms. And I build a single staging table to store all these records.

i have to upload a file in database, the column seperator is ASCII CHARACTER 29, i dont know how to specify that in loader file?
how to write this - fields terminated by ' ' in sql file, which i am calling from a batch file.
i have attached the text file which i am trying to upload, here field seperator is ASCII CHARACTER 29 and record seperator is NEW LINE CHARACTER.
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 2 tables
A B
id a.id
name
type
There are at most 2 entries of a in b. Depending on the value of the type column in B, this determines whether the entry should be male or female. I want to have a select statement that will retrieve 2 rows into one row essentially like below, how is this done:
id male_name female_name
1 paul paula
the column names will appear as such, if its a 0 its a male name if its 1 its a female name, there will generally be 2 entries in B for 1 value of a.

There are millions of DISTINCT ID values in TABLE_1 and corresponding to each ID there are some values for all the days of a month. I need to insert these values in TABLE_2 in the above format.
I found this query in my sub version repository and really wondering how this working
select to_char(to_date(1000000,'J') ,'JSP') string_value from dual;
I am working on a POC. The goal is to do a
select * from function('input')
where the function dynamically returns different tables.
I have gotten to the point where I can return the cursor but I cannot format it as a table to use in the query. It return's it as XML. This is my function:
create or replace
FUNCTION CAMS_FUN_GEN_REPORTS(PARAM1 IN VARCHAR2) RETURN SYS_refCURSOR AS
BEGIN
DECLARE
p_recordset SYS_refCURSOR;
begin
OPEN p_recordset FOR 'SELECT * from STATS_FLAGGED_TOTALS_ME';
RETURN p_recordset;
END;
END CAMS_FUN_GEN_REPORTS;
This is my query:
select * from CAMS_FUN_GEN_REPORTS('')
So normally you would do this
select * from TABLE(CAMS_FUN_GEN_REPORTS('') as tabletype)
But I will never know the end result table as it will be dynamic so I have to find a way to cast the result of the function into a new table I can select on.
I have looked into pipe lining also but from what I can tell you still need to know the table definition. Which I can't know from the client side. The server will control the 'routing' and thus the end result of the select.
I have a row which contains 6 columns where I want that data to be shown in the form of columns as shown here:
From:
select item1, item2, item3, amt1, amt2, amt3 from item_table where sno=1; <----- returns 1 row as below
ITEM1 ITEM2 ITEM3 AMT1 AMT2 AMT3
---------- ------------ ------------- ----------- ------------ ----------
AAA BBB CCC 10.00 20.00 15.00
Data explanation: item1's (AAA) price is amt1 (10.00), item2's (BBB) price is amt2 (20.00) and item3's (CCC) price is amt3 (15.00). OK.
Now I want that data to convert into columns as shown here:
To:
ITEMS AMT
--------- ---------
AAA 10.00
BBB 20.00
CCC 30.00
I want a SQL to display this data.
I found one query which converts a row into columns, but this does not serve my requirement: [for your reference only]
SQL> select substr( the_string
, decode( level, 1, 1, instr(the_string,',',1,level-1)+1)

We are able to insert CLOB into database, Using oracle Text I'm able to search inside clob. [two questions solved ]. The question arise when we need to send this data to application either as file or as text(varchar2).
I'm able to generate file from CLOB using function,unfortunately it resides inside db and developer is not able to access it.
1)There is option to mount application partition inside db and export file over there but it is not viable option according to management.
2)I've Googled the solution to create JAVA API. Which will perform OS command like scp to send file from db to app(or any remote host). For security reason this option is also dropped.
3)I tried dbms_lob.substr but actual text inside clob is too long. File generated from CLOB sized around 5 MB.
So I guess it requires lot of effort if I wanted to convert into varchar2 as out parameter inside function.
So, to give CLOB data to developer as file or as varchar2. I'm not able to get any solution. Is there any other option using database to convert to string/varchar2 from CLOB ? Or do I need to drill down more into third option.

Is the 12c version of the Grid Control only for Oracle Cloud? Not completely sure of exactly what cloud computing is. Looks like a conglomeration of shared resources. Anyway we are converting all of our servers over to vmware virtual machines except the ones we manage in other states. I am upgrading each database to 11 r2 as we convert the servers. Anyway my Grid server is next to convert to a virtual machine. I am using Grid Control 10.2.0.5.0 now. I want to upgrade to the latest version of the Grid control. 12c seems to stress and boast about managing the "Oracle Cloud" to manage regular single node Oracle servers as well as vmware virtual machines?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have seen lots of examples of using PIVOT to return an sql query where the rows have been converted to columns. All the examples I can find require you to have two columns with multiple rows, and also require you to know the data which is in one of columns to make titles for the new columns.
I need something a little different...I have a query using UNION which goes something along the lines of...
SELECT [get data from one place]
UNION
SELECT [get data from another place]
UNION
SELECT [get data from another place]
this returns the following...

The names of the columns don't really matter. And I dont want to create a new table in the database just for the result.
We have a queue in which the message is coming from external system. The payload of the queue table is a PL/SQL record type. Once we get the message in the queue, we de-queue the message and read through the PL/SQL type collection and process the message.
From the below query, we are able to convert the PL/SQL collection message to XML message and see the data.
SELECT dbms_xmlgen.getxml
('SELECT USER_DATA
FROM <Queue_table> X
WHERE X.USER_DATA.SALE_ORDER.P_HEADER_REC.ORIG_SYS_DOCUMENT_REF=800501298')
FROM dual;
The new requirement is the message would come in a XML message in the queue. So my question is, is there any way through which the XML message can be converted to the PL/SQL record structure directly (it would be the opposite operation of the above query).
