SQL & PL/SQL :: Remove Spaces By Excluding Double Quotes From A String

SQL & PL/SQL :: Show Value Of Variable In Double Quotes?

Dec 4, 2011

declare
v_a varchar2(2000) := 'abcd';
v_e varchar2(2000) := '6666';
v_d varchar2(2000) := 'example';
v_final varchar2(4000);
begin
v_final := '"v_a"'||'''|'''||'"v_e"'||'''|'''||'"v_d"';

-- v_final := '"v_a"';

dbms_output.put_line('v_final: '||v_final);

end;
/

above gives me :

v_final: "v_a"'|'"v_e"'|'"v_d"

so it is printing the variable names, But I want to see values, like this: "abcd"|"6666"|"example"

SQL & PL/SQL :: Double Quotes In Column Name Can Be Replaced With Alternate Character?

Feb 14, 2012

Any way to replace the Double Quotes used to enclose column names with an alternative character. This is the SQL I have now that Works!

select (case when CUST is null then "/BIC/Z_SUPPLNT" else NM1 end) CMPNTSUPSRCE
from TBL1, TBL2
where "/BIC/Z_MAJVEND"=CUST(+) and Material = '1ABCD456'
order by Material

But would like to do something along these lines below but keep getting error "ORA-00936: missing expression".

select (case when CUST is null then chr(34)||/BIC/Z_SUPPLNT||chr(34) else NM1 end) CMPNTSUPSRCE
from TBL1, TBL2
where chr(34)||/BIC/Z_MAJVEND||chr(34)=CUST(+) and Material = '1ABCD456'
order by Material

Server Utilities :: SQL Loader Loads All Fields With Double Quotes Into Staging Table

Aug 25, 2010

I am having a similar problem like above ONLY in UNIX box where my datafile is delimited by "|". The last field is ITM_CMNT declared as VARCHAR2(60) in Oracle. When I have exactly 60bytes in the last field it rejects the record saying actual 61 and max allowed is 60. If i reduce it to < 60bytes then it is stored as a value enclosed with double quotes. The enclosing double quote is on the next line.

"PROC,RAM,FLPY,HD,ACT MTX CLR DSP,D/PCMCIA,TRKBAL,LIT ION BA"

Expected: the one below is exactly 60bytes.

PROC,RAM,FLPY,HD,ACT MTX CLR DSP,D/PCMCIA,TRKBAL,LIT ION BAT
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE TMPTLI_LAWSON_ITM_MST
TRUNCATE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "|"

PL/SQL :: Remove Spaces Between Two Number From A Varchar2?

Oct 18, 2012

I have a question respect to remove spaces from a varchar2.

The varchar2 is '7987451 1234567' and i need that string like '7987451 1234567', because the field has a length of 15.

i try with this, but does nothing

Select TRIM('7987451 1234567') from dual

Other possibilities are find several spaces and try to replace with only one, but would a heavy work (may be with sentences Loop).

This problem is now in our loading processes. Exists some function to replace spaces between numbers of varchar2?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Using Apostrophe / Quotes In A String

Feb 9, 2011

Here is a sample function which takes in a string of CSV fields and prints the third field :

create or replace function restr(istr varchar2) return INTEGER
is
var_1 varchar2(30);
begin
dbms_output.put_line('input:'||istr);
select regexp_substr(',' || istr,1,3,null,1) into var_1 from dual;

[Code]..

When I pass an input string as :

JOHN,MARY,O'DONNEL,O'CONNELLY,MARK

with quotes/apostrophe in it to the function then it prints the input string in the first dbms_output but errors out at the select with ORA-01760.

how we can use the quote/apostrophe character here ?

How Many Quotes To Use In Dynamic Query Using IN Clause With String

Nov 23, 2011

I have a dynamic query which has this clause in it: WHERE [COLUMN NAME] IN (' || theString || ')

My problem is that theString is being passed in through a C# call and the variable is a bunch of strings concatenated together and separated by a comma. Ex: theString = "'val1','val2'"

How many quotes are supposed to go around val1 and val2?

I've tried the following and none work:
'val1','val2'
''val1','val2''
''val1'',''val2''
'''val1'',''val2'''
''''val1'',''val2''''

When I run the procedure in Oracle it works with '''val1'',''val2'''

PL/SQL :: Translate Function Remove Alpha Characters From String

Feb 7, 2013

I am on 11g.

I need to remove the alpha characters from a string, leaving only numbers, but I am getting unexpected results:

SQL> SELECT TRANSLATE('3N', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', NULL) a FROM DUAL;
A
-

I thought this would leave the 3 from the 3N, but it is returning an empty string. For my application, the string '3N' could be any length, will only contain letters and numbers, and the letters will always come at the end, but there could be more than one letter

VALID INPUT samples:
4
25
11F
361NG

SQL & PL/SQL :: Double Right Outer Join

Oct 12, 2011

I have a query which does a double right outer join, and I need it to be rewritten using the newer syntax.

The previous query had the following clause:

WHERE
MOD_INFO.MODIFICATION_ID (+)= MOD.ID
AND MOD.PEPTIDE_ID (+)= PEPTIDE.ID

Or you can think of it generically as:

T1.T2_FK (+)= T2.ID AND
T2.T3_FK (+)= T3.ID

How would this be written using the newer syntax?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Finding Double Vowels

Dec 14, 2010

I am reading Section 4-8 (page 42/216) in the Oracle Database 2-day Developer Guide from here:

[Code]....

It reads:

Suppose that you want to select every employee whose last name has a double vowel(two adjacent occurrences of the same vowel).

Example 4.9 shows how you can do this.

The regular expression ([AEIOU]) represents any vowel. The metacharacter 1 represents the first (and in this case, only) regular expression. The third function parameter, 'i', specifies that the match is case-insensitive.

Example 4.9 Selecting All Employees Whose Last Names Have Double Vowels

SELECT FIRST_NAME, LAST_NAME
FROM EMPLOYEES
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE(LAST_NAME, '([AEIOU])1', 'i');

Result is similar to:

FIRST_NAME LAST_NAME
-------------------- -------------------------
Harrison Bloom
Lex De Haan
Kevin Feeney
Ki Gee
Nancy Greenberg
Danielle Greene
Alexander Khoo
David Lee

8 rows selected.

I don't understand how [AEIOU])1 would find a double vowel(two adjacent occurrences of the same vowel).
