I am using the same query on a different table and there's no problem on it:
select to_char(ENTRYDATE,'MM-DD-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') from TBL_XX_PROGRAM
where ENTRYDATE > sysdate -10 and rownum <10
03-03-2011 17:06:48
03-03-2011 17:06:48
03-03-2011 16:59:08
03-03-2011 16:59:08
03-03-2011 12:04:21
I checked the DDL of both tables and the only difference is that the TBL_XX_PROGRAM have the ENTRYDATE field defined as not null and the ENTRYDATE on the TBL_BANDWIDTH_READS does not have the same constraint, could it affect?
I am trying to run select query on xml using xmltable. One of the tag returns date and I want to take it in date format in xmltable column.
select t.* from XMLTYPETEST xt , XMLTable ('/TestData/trade' passing xt.data columns test varchar2(100) path 'GenTest/Id', testdate date path 'DateTest/Date')t;
But its throwing error as -
SQL Error: ORA-29958: fatal error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string 29958. 00000 - "fatal error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine" *Cause: Failed to successfully execute the ODCIIndexCreate routine.
I have a table with modifieddate column with 'DATE' data type.I am facing date format exception and tried with to_char, to_date but its throwing invalid number exception. how to format date accordingly.
SELECT * FROM EMP WHERE modifieddate > '31-Dec-2011 18:30';
ORA-01722: invalid number 01722. 00000 - "invalid number"
Is there a seeded function by which I can check all the rows which stored dates in varchar column.
I have a table say test (test_data varchar2(100));
Now I will insert all types of records into the table varchar,number dates and then i will write q query to etch all those records only which has dates only
INSERT INTO test(1); INSERT INTO test('ABC'); INSERT INTO test(SYSDATE); INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY')); INSERT INTO test(TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')); INSERT INTO test('15/01/2012'); ... commit;
say for example there is a column called 'date_txn' in a table .When i select that particular column it display output as 'June 2013'.But i want output "with date and time".
When I try to extract the date tag value from XML data, the time stored in 20120602153021 format i.e., YYYYMMDD24HHMISS format. The following statement extracts only date as 02-JUN-12 however do not extract the time part.
If I try the same in SQLplus with to_date it works however fails in PL/SQL.
XML data: <?xml version="1.0"?> <RECORD> <REGTIMESTAMP>20120601130010</REGTIMESTAMP> </RECORD>
PL/SQL Extract:
CURSOR c_xml_record IS SELECT extract(value(d), '//ACTIVATIONTS/text()').getStringVal() AS REGTIMESTAMP, FROM t_xml_data x, [code].......
I want to reset my date to this format: 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM - see code below:
DECLARE v_latest_close DATE; BEGIN v_latest_close := TO_DATE ('12/31/2012 23:59:59 ','MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'); DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('The new date format is : '|| v_latest_close); END;
the code above displays only : 12/31/2012 instead of 12/31/2012 11:59:59 PM
I am having problems with the XMLTable function. I cant get it to see the entire date/time value in a date field. This wont work
select x1.* from XMLTABLE('/DOCUMENT' passing xmltype('<DOCUMENT><STR>abc def ghi</STR><NUM>1234</NUM><DT>2013-02-17T04:24:02</DT></DOCUMENT>') columns STR varchar2(25), NUM number, DT date) x1;
However if I change the DT tag to just the date only "2013-02-17" it works. Why wont Oracle see the entire date/time format even if its ISO 8601 compliant?

In the database, NLS_DATE_FORMAT = DD-MON-RR.I have a date field called LOAD_DATE in one of the tables. I want to store the value as '25-OCT-11 01:16:25 PM' in LOAD_DATE field. Is there a way to do it without changing the NLS parameter (ALTER SESSION...) ?
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE sample_object IS OBJECT (id NUMBER ,name VARCHAR2(30)); / CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE sample_table IS TABLE OF sample_object;
I have read some docs ,but I didn't get any information where exactly we use this.provide one real time scenario with an example.How this is different from record.
I have table called INFO and the column called CREATED_DATE . Now the datatype of CREATED_DATE is of varchar2 . Now If I need to query the table through select statement where I need to order the result based on CREATED_DATE , how can i achieve this ?
We store the date in String Type format of "MON-YYYY", we require to run the report base on that string contain date column, During the Query execute the Error Display of (ora-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected)
The Query is :
select period_name,doc_sequence_value,doc_sequence_id,date_created,name,JE_SOURCE,XX from ( select period_name,doc_sequence_value,doc_sequence_id,date_created,name,JE_SOURCE,TO_DATE(XX,'DD/MM/RRRR') XX from ( select TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(('01-'||substr(gl.period_name,1,3)||'-'||substr(gl.period_name,5,2)),'DD/MM/RR'),'DD-MON-RRRR') xx,
First, I'm aware that the equals (=) operator is a "comparison operator compares two values for equality." In other words, in an SQL statement, it won't return true unless both sides of the equation are equal. For example:
SELECT * FROM Store WHERE Quantity = 200; The LIKE operator "implements a pattern match comparison" that attempts to match "a string value against a pattern string containing wild-card characters."
For example:
SELECT * FROM Employees WHERE Name LIKE 'Chris%';
Here,I query about date type data on ORACLE database, I found the following, when I write select statment in this way:
SELECT ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT_ID, ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE FROM ACCOUNT WHERE ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE LIKE '30-JUL-07';
I get all rows I'm looking for. but when I use the sign equal =
instead :SELECT ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT_ID, ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE FROM ACCOUNT WHERE ACCOUNT.LAST_TRANSACTION_DATE = '30-JUL-07';
I get nothing even though nothing is different except the equal sign.
How can we partition a table based on date if it does not have a date column.
Actually I have to compare two tables on daily basis and fetch few rows from those two tables and enter it to a third table.But both these tables does not have a date column.
I am confused if i need to alter those tables and add date column or if there is some way in which i can compare the data from the two tables for that particular day only and not the whole table data.
My requirment is to find out the period names and transactions which are in valid date formats and are less than sysdate and the non date formats are adjustments made by different users for their transactions
I want to load data from a file using sqlldr.I have a table commissions ( technician_id char(5) , tech_name char(30) , Comm_rcd_date DATE , Comm_Paid_date DATE , comm_amt number(10,2) )
my file is 00001,TIMOTHY TROENDLY,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0006,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0007,123.56 00002,KENNETH KLEMENZ,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0006,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0009,123.56 00003,SHUNDAR ARDERY,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0006,2011-03-04T01:45:12+0005,123.56 write a ctl file to load this data.
I have a table with two columns called startsem and gradsem they are both CHAR(3). Within those colums are rows that are listed as SemesterYear. For example, F09 is Fall 2009, S09 Spring 2009, and M09 is Summer 2009. I would like to create a constraint that says GradSem must be greater than StartSem b/c no one can travel back in time to graduate. However, as you know you can compare S09 > F09 because it will treat it as a string. I thought I could use a substring and compare the last two digits as a year and that would work but how do I compare the semesters as a time frame? Because in my schema F > S because Spring 2011 comes before Fall 2011 but in reality F < S because to Oracle it is a string and the ASCII value of F is less than S. I cannot chage the coding of the database so editing the rows so they are more date friendly is not an option.
So how can I modify this database to acruately compare StartSem and GradSem.
i have changed date's format and the calendar type in sqlplus through the following command so the date's format and the calender type both changed successfully and work, but in oracle form the they haven't changed.
alter session set nls_calendar='persian';
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY/MM/DD';
ALTER SYSTEM SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT='YYYY/MM/DD' SCOPE=SPFILE;
Note: i know session would change the format temporally but i want to change it permanently so i tried alter_system but still no result
I have to create a table which should store data at Week level. The table have the following columns
Product id, Loc id, Business group id, FISCAL WEEK , Revenue,
Fiscal week column will have data as '2011-W01', '2011-W47' etc.
What should be the data type for fiscal week column. Based on this table i have to create a calculated column which should fetch trailing 12 weeks average for each row.
