I have a table test with column containing dates, characters and numbers. I have to extract the number part and the three characters before the number . My data looks like :
TEST ID DATA 1 3/12/2007 2 0 3 3/8/2010 ABC 217 4 NONE 5 COLM XYZ 469 6/8/2011 6 LMN 209
I have a field in a table that is declared in the CREATE statement as an INT datatype. However, when I query that table using vb.net, the value comes back as a decimal.
How do you declare a field in Oracle as a true integer data type?
Actually I got a data in hex values and i want to convert it to datetime format. But before i convert the hex value into datetime format, i must convert the hex values into decimal val first for each 2 digits of hex values. This is an example of the input data:-
This is input data in hex value:- STARTTIME : 080b1317021a
This is decimal value after convert from hex to decimal:- STARTTIME : 081119230226
My problem is how could i convert hex to decimal in oracle? Below are my coding:-
case when substr(LOAD_NGNSM.STARTTIME, 1, 2) not between '00' and '99' or substr(LOAD_NGNSM.STARTTIME, 3, 2) not between '01' and '12' or substr(LOAD_NGNSM.STARTTIME, 5, 2) not between '01' and '31' or substr(LOAD_NGNSM.STARTTIME, 7, 2) not between '00' and '59' or substr(LOAD_NGNSM.STARTTIME, 9, 2) not between '00' and '59' [code]....
I am using Oracle Forms 6i. In my program unit i write into a .CSV and .TXT File. Here if the amount is 100.00 then it prints as 100 only. That is if the 2nd decimal digit is 0 it doesnt print it.
For example 10.00 -->10 10.01--> 10.01 10.10-->10.1 10.12-->10.12
I used to_char(nvl(&amount,0),'9999999.99') so if query select to_char(nvl(10.10,0),'9999999.99') from dual, then i get the output as 10.10.
Do you think this is a problem with Oracle forms or SQL or the formatting of .TXT & .CSV.
Recently i have started working on PLSQL coding. I have a requirement. Either error or un-processed record count is 90% of to be processed records then the script has to fail. Currently I am having a situation where error count is 1 and total to be processed is also 1.
in the below V_ERR is error count V_UPS is un processed count V_PROCESSED_COUNT is total to be processed.
I am expecting PASS result but it is giving FAIL.
DECLARE V_ERR NUMBER:=0; V_UPS NUMBER:=0; V_PROCESSED_COUNT NUMBER:=0; NIN NUMBER; BEGIN V_PROCESSED_COUNT:=1; [Code] .......
Using Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64 to run the queries & Oracle 11g.
I have two numbers in two colomns of an oracle table(colomn a & colomn b). I am trying to divide colomn a/colomn b and putting the results in colomn c & also in colomn d (all in the same table) using update commands
Eg: UPDATE MTOTABLE_PWELD pw SET pw.WELDO=(pw.pipe_length/12000);
But here is the real issue. In colomn d I only need the integer portion of the division value.
For example , when I divide colomn a/colomn b , let us assume that we are getting a value of 2.56. Then I want the value of 2 to go to colomn d.
I tried round((colomn a/colomn b),0). But it rounds off 2.56 to 3. I dont want that. I need the exact integer portion of the value to be seperated.

From valid records from test table those two columns,need to be insert into test1 table. We should validate the decimal values while selecting from test table.

When I run the above control file in sqlldr, I'm getting the error as Record 1: Rejected - Error on table table1, column column3. ORA-01481: invalid number format model
In the table the column3 data type is NUMBER(6,2).: The column size in table is 6 and position of column3 in control file is only 4. Also if possible let me know how the same data (send me 2 dummy records) which exactly works for the above control file especially for column3 where decimal number comes in the flat file.
For generating the flat file, for column3, i'm using LPAD(:value,4,0) in the select query column list.
I have a small prob. I want an amount to be always 2 decimal places. I've used the Round function - Round(amount,2). the problem is that if the amount is only to 1 dp like 1.4. the above function will return 1.4. I want it to appear like 1.40
I am using an portuguese(brazil) Oracle 11g db,which should have ',' as decimal char. it seems to be working fine when i m trying to get numerical data via select query,but when i am trying to retrive the same data using out parameter of an sproc.I am getting data with '.' as decimal char.
I have loaded shape files with SQL developer Georaper and limited number of decimals to 8. There is option to limit number of decimals in georapter.But there are some X, Y with many decimals. This may create problem in spatial functions in which geometries are compared and filtered
how to control the decimal points of X,Y to be loaded in geometry column. -0.4695623500000000172249770002963487058878 51.47160360000000167701728059910237789154-0.4702653600000000211345252409955719485879 51.47174944999999723904693382792174816132-0.4713475400000000092859409051015973091125 51.47330664999999783049133839085698127747-0.4717886499999999760923685698799090459943
I have the following set of numbers that i am passing in as one input into a stored procedure.
234,456,234,456,567
Now i want to take this list of numbers and use it in an IN statement:
select * from table where column_a in (P_INPUT);
however, when i try this, it give me an invalid error. I have tried inserting single quote around each value and get the same invalid error. I tried a To_char around my column, which solved the error, but it never finds a match!
I want to get 10 random numbers from existing 100 numbers. How can we get/generate random numbers ?
for example I have a table with customer ID, customer Name, having 100 record. We want 10 customers ID randomly from that 100 record not repeated any number. Have any command or procedure for that ?
I am creating a function to sum five numbers (less 1). Is it possible to have an array of numbers in an SQL function, and how would this be implemented?
Here is the screenshot of my output (I cannot embed links until 5 posts!): flic.kr/p/eaSHBP
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION sumfivenumbers ( n1 NUMBER, n2 NUMBER, n3 NUMBER, n4 NUMBER, n5 NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER IS Sumnums NUMBER; BEGIN SELECT SUM(n1+n2+n3+n4+n5-1) INTO Sumnums FROM DUAL; DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(Sumnums); RETURN 1; END sumfivenumbers; / SELECT sumfivenumbers(5,5,5,5,5) AS "Five Numbers less 1" FROM DUAL;
