change the column size will has no

Hi all

I have a question on oracle 10g. I will modify one of the type of column of varchar table (100) to varchar (200).
Initially I intend to modify the table in readonly mode, then change the column.

But I hit the options not valid error and discovered that, in 10g, do not have this feature, so I intend to do online, but during off peak hours.
So my question is when I change the column, if there is an insert/update / delete on the table, they would wait or they will fail?

Please notify.

>
1 let say if the previous DML operation were engaged
4 h I fire the alter column statement
3. the DML from query, they will wait the "alter column' finished or they fail?

When you perform the alter column, there will be a level lock table to prevent the update of the rite of the table?
>
Yes - but the table will lock only for a moment. Edit a VARCHAR2 column to expand it is only a change in data dictionary. No actual data is changed.

The table should be locked to change the dictionary, and is then immediately unblocked. There will be no problem of performance. You need just one or two seconds, there where there is no DML or DDL going on for this table.

  • change the column size for the number

    Hello

    I created a table with a primary key declared under the (default specification) NUMBER column.

    Create table T

    (

    Number of key primary col1,.

    col2 varchar2 (10)

    );

    Then, I filled this table using the sequence. Now, I want to change the size of the primary key to the number (15) column.

    Is this possible without emptying the primary key column?

    You can't reduce the length of a column that has already given. But you can work around it like that.

  • Change the column header font size

    Hi all

    In the view of the table, I am able to change the size of the font of a column, but this does not affect the column header.
    This translates into having the data in a single font size and position of the original size.
    I tried to update the class column header in view.css (analytics\res\s_oracle10\b_mozilla_4):
    . {ColumnHdg}
    color: #3c3c3c;
    border-style: solid;
    border-color: #c9cbd3;
    border-width: 0 1px 1px 0;
    background-color: #cfe0f1;
    do-size: 8pt;
    make-weight: bold;
    vertical-align: bottom;
    padding: 1px 2px 2px 3px;
    text-align: left;
    }
    but this does not at all affect the size of the text.

    NB: I refresh and clear the cache of the browser every time I make a change in the CSS file.

    One knows what the problem is. ??

    Concerning
    Adil

    Hello
    To change the column heading, go to the properties of column-> data format-> next to the column name, you can see change format-> give the font size of the column header.
    Is that what you want?

  • Change the font size in the standard State

    Hi all

    Sometimes little things can be very tricky in the ApEx. I fought to change the font size in a report. I learned that I can achieve in column report edit and modify the HTML Expression, for example:

    & lt; span style = "do-family: Times New Roman;" font-size: 60% "& gt;" #EMPNAME # & lt; / span & gt;

    But one of my reports has more than 30 columns, it takes forever to change one by one, as you can imagine, also, I don't think it's a good way to do this. I guess I have to change my model. For example, I now use a standard report template 12 theme. I made a copy of the report template and rename it in smaller font Standard. I'm new to CSS, how do I change the template to the report apply to a class of pre-defined fonts?

    I created the demo on my workspace, please feel free to take a look at:

  • change the font size in Windows Live Mail

    Windows 8 and Windows Live Mail, to change the font size in WLM but not as he was w/Win 7. HOW can I increase the font size?

    Because the poster seems to be using the app Mail W8, the thread has been moved to the appropriate forum 

    Hi EdSikora,

    Sounds like you have problems using the mail app on the computer.

    • Are you referring to the Mail app in Windows 8?
    • Or is it specifically Windows Live Mail?

    If you are referring to the mail app on Windows 8, you can proceed as follows.

    1. When you compose a mail, select the text you want to change the font for, or simply right click on the space empty on the mail.
    2. At the bottom of the screen, you will find the app bar with options.
    3. Select or click the font changes.

    You can check this article for more details on the mail app. Do not respond if this isn't what you're looking for or if you have more questions. Thank you.

  • Can I change the font size for the mail application?

    For the purposes of mail, I want to change the font size.  In other words, the size of everything on the screen when I'm watching and reading mail (do not as much care of the font size in the mail I made up).  Hereby, I refer to the list of the mails which is located on the left of the screen, where it lists who it is from and the subject and the right of the screen, where the content of the selected mail mail message appears as follows.  In fact, it might just be a type of "zoom" as well, not necessarily affecting the size of font in itself.  Want just everything what I see on the screen, reading, to be bigger. Have looked under 'settings' and 'help' and can't find anything about it in two places.

    My mother is 90 and said: "it's so small, I can hardly read it.  Wow, thought new Windows 8 was supposed to be a new world, easy and user friendly; and yet, here, I am an "expert" was using the PC since the beginning of the Radio Shack, start Windows, etc... but have to post this question here.

    Thanks if you can help with that!

    Some of them depends on the capabilities of your display.  If she has enough pixels to do without causing interference, you can adjust the DPI (dots per inch) of scale and it will expand the size of the text and the items for you.

    To see if you can do it, go to your charm to search and type 'scale '.  Choose the search result it shows and then try the configuration in larger size.

  • Cannot change the font size in the window pop up and stickies

    I use Acrobat Pro XI on a Macbook Pro, OS 10.9.5. As a proofreader/Editor, I use mainly the highlight and sticky tools. A few days ago the type in my comments have become extremely low, even if I didn't have any (intentional) changes. I have just put preferences at 18 to 20 points, but the police does not change and is still much too small. (I also noted, in a document of support, Mac users are not supposed to be able to size of setpoint, to small, medium, or large - but I do not have these options.) I upgraded x to XI to try to solve this problem, but nothing has changed. When I go to the editing of content box, "Edit text & Images" is grayed out. I can make changes in the field 'Add', but I do not use this tool. I'm getting a little bit frantic (Yes, the smoke is because my hair is on fire), because most of my jobs are PDF files, and now I can't work on it.


    I am sure that it is simply a case of DO (silent operator), but I'd appreciate it if anyone can put back me on track. Thank you.

    You use the properties toolbar? It is contextual. Read the first article below for more information on this subject.

    Also try to go to one of your old PDF with the font size as you like it. Right-click on the reminder and select 'Make properties Default '. Here are a few articles that I hope will help.

  • I can't go in the settings of fonts. How to change the font size?

    I had downloaded the latest version of Firefox and I finished it sync for my Android phone. I went into a kind of dialog box settings and accidentally changed my fonts and text settings and now I can't read any of my Gmail which is in my account on my desktop - it's too small. I'm trying to figure out how I can enter in the content settings (I feel that I do once I have enter the menu 'options' on the content settings page, but I don't know how to bring up the menu of the content/page settings). I use my desktop PC for work and I can't use it with the font settings and how they are now. I also read where the issues are taken, but no one knows how to find the answers to the questions people are asking. How do we get the answers that people give us on the issue, we asked?

    I hope you can help me as soon as POSSIBLE, I can change what I as soon as POSSIBLE. I'm working on my pc 24/7 for the work and is not helping me when I can't read the emails and I can't solve the problem.

    Thank you!

    Hi Upset2,

    Sorry to hear that you are having problems with font sizes in Firefox on your desktop.

    Text sizes really small for each Web site you visit, or is it just your emails?
    Text sizes are really small on your desktop and Android or only one?

    There are several things that could cause your text sizes to seem strange, so I'll take you by a couple.

    First of all, your email page could have a zoom. On your PC, could you please try open Gmail and then by clicking on the icon at the top right of your screen that looks like three lines?

    This will bring up a new menu and near the top of the menu are three buttons: a minus (-), a percentage (that is to say, he could say 70%) and a plus (+). Please click button percentage - this should Gmail zoom to 100%.

    If that doesn't fix it, let's try using the method on your printout. To access the content settings screen, click the button in the top right that looks like three lines. Click on Preferences. A new window will open. Click on the 'Content' button and follow the instructions that you change the font size.

    There is another version of the instructions I just gave you, with screenshots, here: font size and zoom - increase the size of web pages

    Mozilla Support issues are all handled by volunteers, and at peak hours, there may be a delay. Thanks for your patience!

    I hope this helps.

  • possible to change the font size of the bookmark toolsbar?

    possible to change the font size of the bookmark toolsbar?
    upgrade to firefox v22 and notice this bookmark toolsbar got bigger, some bookmark font cannot be displayed, it is normal? possible to change?

    Hello

    Firefox on Windows is now after display, scaling options that can make the biggest text on screens at high resolution.
    You can adjust the resolution of your screen.
    To change it follow these steps:

    • Type of topic: config in the Firefox address bar and hit the Enter key.
    • If the warning that this might void your warranty , click I'll be careful, I promised.
    • Search for layout.css.devPixelsPerPx

    • Double-click layout.css.devPixelsPerPx to edit its value. The default value is - 1.0 in Firefox 22 and above. Change it to 1.0 to run as in previous versions of Firefox.

    If necessary, further adjust the value of 0.1 or 0.05. Values between 1.0 and around 0.5 to reduce the size of the elements. Use a value greater than 1.0 to increase the size. For example, a value of 1.25 will increase the font size of the 125% to account for the default DPI setting in Windows 8. Check the value that you enter. Definition of a value that is too small will take everything away and too high will explode things.

    If the web pages should always be adjusted so you can watch the extension Default FullZoom Level or NoSquint .

    To adjust the font size for the user interface, you can use the extension of theme font & size changer .

    This solve your problems? Please report to us!

    Thank you.
