When I try to convert numeric values � number(19) p.s 111111111111111111, the to_char function returns �1111111111111110000� because the to_char functions doesn�t support precision bigger than 15.
Is there any way to solve it?
I have 2 tables.The column in table A is number and Column in table B is a varchar2 datatype.I have to use the Column of table B as a filter to column of Table A.Below is the example.
create table A(Col1 number);
Inert into A values(1);
Inert into A values(2);
Inert into A values(3);
Inert into A values(4);
Create table B(Col1 Varchar2(100));
Insert into b value ('1,2,3');
Select * from A where col1 in (select col1 from b)
Error: Invalid Number
Is there a way to convert the varchar to number.The varchar field have multiple characters (numbers) seperated by commas.
How to convert varchar2 to number data?
View 8 Replies View RelatedI keep getting this error when I run my update statement. Here is what the coding looks like. I'm running Oracle 11g.
CREATE TABLE A (
SUPP_CD_EIM VARCHAR2 (20),
SUPP_CD VARCHAR2(20),

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?

I am facing issue related to Number data while it is being converted to Varchar2, it is automatically getting rounded off after 32 decimal place.My database version is "Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production".
1) create table test18 ( col1 varchar2(10), val Number);
create table succeeded.
2) insert into test18 values ('First', -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679); -- After decimal 34 digits
1 rows inserted
insert into test18 values ('Second', -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296); -- After decimal 32 digits
1 rows inserted
3) select * from test18;
COL1 VAL
---------- ----------------------
First -347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679
Second -347026.64084996524674808857114487141296
4) As per the requirement, all the columns would need to be concatenated as a single string along with comma delimiter
select col1 || ',' || val as record_string
from test18;
RECORD_STRING
---------------------------------------------------
First,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141297
Second,-347026.64084996524674808857114487141296
"First" string got rounded off to 97 (last 2 digits) instead of 9679 but for "Second" record it holds the actual value.Only thing which I could figure out while the number is getting type casted to String, it is getting rounded off to 32 decimal place.throw off some light on it and provide the solution how the original record can be kept intact without rounding off.
Expected Output_
RECORD_STRING

First,-347026.6408499652467480885711448714129679

As per my knowledge, RANGE is better suited for DATE or NUMBER. and INTERVAL partition is possible on DATE or NUMBEr . Column PROFILEIts is of VARCHAR2 datatype. I know still I can partition as Oracle internally convert varchar2 to number while inserting data. But INTERVAL is not possible. How to RANGE partition on PROFILE ?

I can't seem to find a tool that will let me step into the actual stored procedure line by line to see where the error occurs. It mentions line 173, which seems to be a red-herring, as line 173 is simply one of the 'END IF' lines within this block:

I got a string in the form 1+2+4.If we write select 1+2+4 from dual;then we get o/p as 7.but the same thing iam trying to do in a bit of pl/sql program by passing the string 1+2+4 value to a number variable as below.
COUNT_TASK := TO_NUMBER(TASK6_STATUS);
TASK6_STATUS value is 1+2+4 (this thing i got by replacing the string and lots of stuff) but i need the result after adding these 3 numbers in the string. and i declare COUNT_TASK as NUMBER;and i am very well aware that it gives me the error ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character to number conversion error
how to add these numbers in my program to get the result 7.

I get the above error when I try to compare the below dates in a Pl/sql process in APEX environment.
Is there a work around for it? or (to_char(V_SERVFROM,'mm/dd/yyyy')) != (to_char(:P29_SERVFROM,'mm/dd/yyyy'))
In my Project, there are many queries have join conditions between Number and Vrahchar2. Will it give any wrong results or Invalid Number exception even the varchar2 column always contains the number data?
Example:
Select * from Table_t1 t1, table_t2 t2
where t1.num_col = t2.var_col
-- Here var_col always hold only numaric data.
i am fairly new in the oracle arena, but what would cause a statement such as
ALTER TABLE TEST_TABLE MODIFY text_field1 varchar2(100) DEFAULT 'testval' NULL
to change a column's type from VARCHAR2(100) to VARCHAR2(100 byte)? i found a few mentions of the 100 byte concept online but nothing that jumped out at me.
I have a column named "col1" with datatype "varchar2(10)" and row wise entries like "1,1A, 2,3...,10,2A,..." like. I want to order it like "1, 1A ,2,2A, 2B,3... 10...".I tried it with to_number() but it gives me
1,10,11,2,....like that.
What is the best alternative to using VARCHAR2 if the output gets truncated after 4000 bytes in a PL/SQL function?
View 10 Replies View Relatedin our application we are using clob column instead of varchar2 because varchar2 does not allow more that 4000 chars, so Using clob allows to put data of any length, will it cause performance issues ? we have this column in almost in all tables .

Once a year in the application we have a specific query that gets used a lot. It's an UPDATE that updates a single record in a single table with a few different datatypes, but the issue is happening with one of the VARCHAR2 fields. It updates one VARCHAR2(2000) and three VARCHAR2(4000) fields at the same time.
This year, 9 of the 95 times it was used resulted in one of the VARCHAR2(4000) fields as null in the database. The users would not want this field to be null and 5 of the 9 have told us they entered something (the form they're filling out is a research proposal and leaving this field empty would be pointless because it's part of the funding request, so they're not doing it). The application isn't doing it because it's not consistent. I've checked the application and these fields can't be nulled any other way.
We just found the issue so I looked back over the past years back to 2005. Last year it didn't happen at all. In 2010 it happened a handful of times. Some years there were even more times. It's not always the same field but it's always a VARCHAR2 of at least 2000 characters.
I have a lot more information but it's all just details (let me know if you need to know more). I'm wondering if there is a bug in 10g with these types of fields. I don't believe it's malicious behavior on an individual's part but I suppose that's always possible.
how to research something like this. I tried to get access to Oracle Support and the Knowledge Base I heard they have but it doesn't look like I can do that
