Oct 4, 2012
create table test_schema(
col1 varchar2(50)
)
insert all
into test_schema values ('this_is_a_test')
into test_schema values ('this_is_a_test_test')

I'm loading data from text file separated by TAB and i got the error below for some lines. Event the column is CLOB data type is there a limitation of the size of a CLOB data type. The error is:
Record 74: Rejected - Error on table _TEMP, column DEST.
Field in data file exceeds maximum length
I'm using SQL Loader and the database is oracle 11g r2 on linux Red hat 5. Here are the line causing the error from my data file and my table description for test:
create table TEMP
(
CODE VARCHAR2(100),
DESC VARCHAR2(500),
RATE FLOAT,
INCREASE VARCHAR2(20),
COUNTRY VARCHAR2(500),
DEST CLOB,

I have a problem to read in data from dmp file to target table.
I've created a dmp file using:
CREATE TABLE table_name
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
(TYPE oracle_datapump
DEFAULT DIRECTORY directory_name
LOCATION ('file_name.dmp')
) AS SELECT col1, col2, col3 from source_table;
[Code]...
The file created via db_link from target db to remote db and then the data are insterted into target db table target_table.
desc target_table
col1 varchar2(20)
col2 number
col3 number
There are no values longer than 20 characters in source table, but when I insert into target_table(col1, col2, col3) as select col1, col2 col3 from source_table; I get ORA-12899: value too large for column "target_table"."col1" (actual: 25, maximum: 20).
I gues it has something to do with how the oracle datapump stored the data in dmp file. When I select col1 from source_table where length(col1) > 20; I get two values which clearly are not longer than 20 characters.
Selected values are:
748473358
693197674
where the bug is hidden or any "normal" workaround?

I am struggling with a simple data load using sqlldr
Ref: I am running Oracle 11.2 on Linux 5.7.
===========================
Here is my table:
SQL> desc ntwkrep.CARD
Name Null? Type
[code]...
Looking at the actual data and counting the characters for the "REALIZES" column data, I see that it is roughly slightly over 1000 characters.
So, attempting various ideas to fix the problem, I tried changing nls_length_semantics to "char" and recreating the table, but this still didn't work and still got the same data load errors on the same rows.
Then, I changed nls_length_semantics back to byte and recreated the table again.This time, I altered the table manually as:
SQL> ALTER TABLE ntwkrep.CARD MODIFY (REALIZES VARCHAR2(4000 char));
Table altered.
SQL> desc ntwkrep.card
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------------------------------- -------- --------------------------------------------
CIM_DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(255)
CIM_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(255)
COMPOSEDOF VARCHAR2(4000)
[code]...
Here is a copy of the first row of data which fails to load every time no matter how I change the "REALIZES" column in the table.
other(1)`CARD-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1` `other(1)`CARD-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1 [other(1)]`HwVersion:C0|SwVersion:12.2(40)SE|Serial#:FOC1302U2S6|` Chassis::CHASSIS-mes-fhnb-bldg-137, Switch::mes-fhnb-bldg-137 ` Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1.23, Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1.21, Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1.5, Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1.7, Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-137/1.14, Port::PORT-mes-fhnb-bldg-

I want to find the max length for a column in oracle, without querying each of the columns. Are these stats stored somewhere?
I have several fields defined as varchar2(4000). Not all of them use up 4000. Instead of querying each one ..max(column name) i want to explore if there is a way, i can find the max size stored somewhere? dba_tab_cols provides size of the field. is there any table that provides max used so far?

I had a varchar2 variable which was storing some data and I could use the LENGTH function to get the length of the data. However, If I change it to CLOB. What is the best way to get the length?
v_clob_size:= (DBMS_LOB.getlength(v_clob)) / 1024 / 1024;
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('CLOB Size ' || v_clob_size);
another one is
LENGTHB(TO_CHAR(SUBSTR(<clob-column>,1,4000))) But this seems restricted to first 4000 characters only.

How the length of column width effects index performance?
For example if i had IOT table emp_iot with columns:
(id number,
job varchar2(20),
time date,
plan number)
Table key consist of(id, job, time)
Column JOB has fixed list of distinct values ('ANALYST', 'NIGHT_WORKED', etc...).
What performance increase i could expect if in column "job" i would store not names but concrete numbers identifying job names.
For e.g. i would store "1" instead 'ANALYST' and "2" instead 'NIGHT_WORKED'.

I am currently working on a bug that came from a user. An oracle form is used for entering employee information and the backend table is employees. One for the field here is LAN ID. It was found that some users were using space bar either before or after entering the Lan id and this is causing issues in finding the employees in the system. A request is being submitted to not let any blanks or space to be entered in the field. In the table, this particular field/column datatype is varchar2 and the size is 8.
How do I make no blanks or spaces to be entered in the field or otherwise, even if they put a space or blank, the field should only use the actual ID entered.. Is it possible?

Environment:
Apex 4.2
DB 11gR2
I've started using Apex 4.2(new to Apex). I have built a form based on a table with a date column on it. The form allows update on all fields/columns of the base table. For the date field/column, the goal is to present the user with sysdate on load and update the date with sysdate if the record is changed any of the fields. How can I accomplish this?

I was looking for application column name corresponding to "Draft Invoice Number" ra_interface_lines_all table.
I tried the below.
/* Get descriptive_flexfield_name for the application table name*/
SELECT *
FROM FND_DESCRIPTIVE_FLEXS_VL
WHERE application_id = 222
AND APPLICATION_TABLE_NAME=upper('ra_interface_lines_all');
/* Get the application column name and end user column name*/
SELECT *
FROM FND_DESCR_FLEX_COLUMN_USAGES
WHERE application_id = 222
AND descriptive_flexfield_name = 'RA_INTERFACE_LINES';
There are many DESCRIPTIVE_FLEX_CONTEXT_CODEs obtained. I could finally trace out that draft invoice number corresponds to INTERFACE_LINE_ATTRIBUTE2. How can I know what DESCRIPTIVE_FLEX_CONTEXT_CODE should I look for?
I want to build a single query to fetch the application column name and flex field name for a specific table .

I have a table where i need to update one field values based on another field of the same table , simply as it is.I have done this using one select all check box , on clicking that all check boxes of item_trans table will get selected , then i will un select some of check box and then using one button, i will update the value of the fields which are checked only.
I have put the sample code but when i am updating its taking long time and hanging.I am also attaching the form based on the test case provided.
--tables with insert statement
create table item_trans (trans_item varchar2(12),trans_qty number,trans_act_qty number)
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE1',40,NULL);
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE2',20,NULL);
insert into item_trans(TRANS_ITEM,TRANS_QTY,TRANS_ACT_QTY) VALUES ('TREE3',20,NULL);
--i want to set the value of trans_Act_qty as trans_qty
--i create one dummy or test block to keep the select all check box. for that table test script is
CREATE TABLE TEST
(
C VARCHAR2(2000 BYTE),
B NUMBER,
A NUMBER
);
insert into test (C,B,A) values ('A',1,1);
--code written in select all check box which is created on test.block.
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('item_trans');
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
:M_END_YN := :M_END_ALL;
[code].......
--code written in M_END_YN ( actual check boxes where i will uncheck).
IF :M_END_YN = 'N' THEN
:M_END_ALL := 'N';
END IF;
--code written on button to update those values which are checked.
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('item_trans');
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
IF :M_END_YN = 'Y' THEN
