Since you have strings, and DATEs not real, the more effective and less prone to passing error is:
WHERE report_date BETWEEN '20111015'
AND '20111017'
Stroing date in a VARCHAR2 column information are not a good idea. It is better to use TIMESTAMP (or DATE) instead.

Date Format help: LUN-JJ-AA
Hello everyone.
Nice day.
I would like to ask for your help regarding my inquiry on the output of the PL/SQL script that I am creating.
Please find below my script output:
L7, CU4450278, 70X1W01AGA-ASY, 11813,20-6ae-13, 0
L7, CU4464442, 747X32VH9015-ASY, 3394,20-6ae-13, 0
L7, CU4464766, 747X22VH9015-ASY, 3383,21-6ae-13, 0
As you can see in the output CSV, the date has an invalid value, the "6ae" should be Jun (e.g. a format short month of June).
My script has this code for date dbms_output to_char(startplan_rec.str_startdate,'DD-MON-YY')
The startplan_rec.str_startdate is of type date.
I tried to interview the same table in oracle sql developer, but I am getting output correctly (for example 20 June 13).
Please, help me to have my out of date format on my pl/sql. Why is my release date on my incorrect script?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards
Jeff.
In your PL/SQL, try to specify the language setting in the optional 3rd parameter that is often ignored in to_char(), as follows:
to_char(startplan_rec.str_startdate,'DD-MON-YY','nls_date_language=english')

Date Format help: LUN - AA
HelloWe have a field of database where the date is stored in the form DD-MON-AA . I have to write a query where I select records in MM1 - YY1 in MM2 - YY2.
The data in the table are in the format DD-MON-AA. The data provided by the query for the query are MON-YY.
The MM1 - YY1 represents the first day of the given month. MM2 - YY2 is the last day of a month. My colleague wrote a query failed as MM1 - YY1 as always the first of each month. That is right. She wrote MM2 - YY2 as always 31' St of each month. The bug is that the code does not work for the months where less than 31 days ago. For example, February and June do not have 31 days.
I am concerned by the month, leap year handling et al., because they are so many additional code and the logical error prone. Is it possible to use the to_date MM-YYYY when the column in the database is YYYY-MM-DD?
I pasted the current code to give a hint.
and svalid_to between to_date ("' | earliestExpiry |) (' ', "YYYY-MM-DD")
and to_date ("' | latestExpiry |) (' ', "YYYY-MM-DD ') ';
Thank you
and svalid_to between to_date(earliest_expiry,'mm-yy') and last_day (to_date(last_expiry,'mm-yy'))

How do I change the date format in the section of the United States to the United Kingdom

Hello
I had a glance in this and have found that Thunderbird uses the date format of your computer system. If you change it, it should be reflected in Thunderbird.
I hope this helps, but if not, please come back here and we can look at another solution for you.

For example, the Date of beginning of life cycle shows 31/05/2001 (March 5) and the end of Support Date extended watch 07/12/2001 (12 July or December 7).
The date format is month/date/year. This format is for the start date and end date for extended Support.
In your example, the start date is May 31, 2001, and the end date would be July 12, 2001.I hope this helps.

How to change the date format in the United States to the United Kingdom
my laptop date format changed to English WE that is dd/mm/yyyy. I tried to change it to English UK that is DD/MM/YYYY, but it does not change.
I would appreciate if I could help out the English American date format and change date format English UK as all my accounts work stayed in waiting for the last week.

Step 1. I choose Chinese (PRC) in the list format (region and language) and set the format of 'YYYY-MM-dd' date, apply. It is ok.
Step 2. I choose English (United States) in the list format (region and language) and set the format of 'YYYY-MM-dd' date, apply. It is ok.
Step 3. I chose the back to Chinese (PRC) in the format list (region and language), format date is reset to "YYYY/M/d", it is not ok for me.
How can I set the format of a two language. ?
Because I use the siemens industry software, when to change language it will read the date format different from the language that is displayed. My client want to see the same format.
I tested under Win XP, it may set the format even in different languages
Hi Jerry,
Thanks for posting the request in Microsoft Community Forums.
It is normal that you can not set the same date format for both languages at the same time. You will need to use the drop-down list to choose a date format customized if necessary.
Hope this information helps.

public static String Selectdate() { DateTimePicker datePicker = DateTimePicker.createInstance(); datePicker.doModal(); Calendar cal = datePicker.getDateTime(); Date date = cal.getTime(); return date.toString(); }
I use the method above to choose the date, but it also shows me the time that I need to see the time I just wants to select only the date. Can someone help me please...
The API tells you how to do that is it not?
public static DateTimePicker createInstance (calendar, calendar,
String datePattern,
String timePattern)Returns a date with an initial display date picker and the format of the date and time. If datePattern and timePattern are null, then will serve as the default time and date formats.
Parameters:
calendar - original date to display
datePattern - the SimpleDateFormat to date. If datePattern is null and timePattern is not null, then a date will not be shown. The model should include only text templates (for example ' / ',': ') and date of models for example DateFormat.YEAR_FIELD, DateFormat.MONTH_FIELD, DateFormat.DATE_FIELD, DateFormat.DAY_OF_WEEK_FIELD. Other symbols of format will be ignored.
timePattern - the SimpleDateFormat for now. Passing null will not display a time if timePattern is null and datePattern is not null, then an hour does not appear. -

Sort data in date format DD/MM/RRRR
Hello
I have to sort our data between two dates ex 01 01, 2016 to the 31/01/2016 for the list of transactions.
Will I convert in JAN-16 format so that I can sort by where period_name like ' JAN-16'?
If so how do I convert a date format of 01/01/2016 JAN-16?
Thank you
Hello
Whenever you have a problem, please post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) of all the tables involved, so that people who want to help you can recreate the problem and test their ideas.
Also post the exact results you want from this data, as well as an explanation of how you get these results from these data, with specific examples.
Always say what version of Oracle you are using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).
See the FAQ forum: Re: 2. How can I ask a question on the forums?
As Chris and Tubby has said, all DATEs are stored in the same internal format, which has nothing to do with the format you use to view or format you use in conversion as TO_DATE functions.
Oracle provides many functions and other features for the manipulation of DATEs, you seldom need to convert them to another format. For example, we wanted to get a list of employees of the scott.emp sorted by month and by ename; in other words, December 1980 would come before April, 1981, as from habit, but the day of the month, hours minutes and seconds would all be ignored in sorting. We can use the TRUNC function to do this:
SELECT TO_CHAR (hiredate, 'Mon-YYYY') AS hiremonth
ename
hiredate
FROM scott.emp
ORDER BY TRUNC (hiredate, 'MONTH')
ename
;
Output:
HIREMONTH ENAME HIREDATE
---------- ---------- -----------
DEC-1980 SMITH December 17, 1980
Feb-1981 ALLEN 20 February 1981
Feb-1981 WARD 22 February 1981
Apr-1981 JONES April 2, 1981
May-1981 BLAKE may 1, 1981
Jun-1981 CLARK June 9, 1981
MARTIN 1981-Sep 28-Sep-1981
Sep-1981 TURNER 08-Sep-1981
Nov-1981 KING November 17, 1981
DEC-1981 FORD December 3, 1981
DEC-1981 JAMES December 3, 1981
Jan-1982 MILLER January 23, 1982
Apr-1987 SCOTT April 19, 1987
May-1987 ADAMS 23 May 1987
Notice how MARTIN comes before TURNER in the output (I marked these Redlines), even if MARTIN hiredate is 20 days later than TURNER. This is because only the year and month are considered in the sorting. Any DATE in the same month will get the same sort value.

Convert char to date format in obiee 11g?
Hello
I want to convert char to date format in obiee 11g.
I have this date
' 07/31 /' | CAST (YEAR (CURRENT_DATE) AS CHAR)
I want to change the tank to the date format.
Please help me,
Thanks in advance,
A.Kavya.
Below him is based on my date format NLS source Oracle database as DD-MON-RR (query on the database - SELECT * > OF nls_database_parameters WHERE the PARAMETER = "NLS_DATE_FORMAT").
Note that this is not altered by the connection of the RPD pool, which is common.
If the date that I put together for substrings and Casts a match before it can be LAUNCHED as a DATE. IE 31 July 15 etc.
Steps to follow:
-Drag a field to the report, one
-Change the formula
-Paste in
CAST ("31 - Jul -" |) SUBSTRING (CAST ('F_PL_BAL'. ' BUSINESS_DATE ' AS CHAR) FROM 8 TO 2) AS DATE).
-OK
-See the results

Do not store information on dates in a VARCHAR2 column. It's simply to request data not valid, complicated, inefficient code and runtime errors. The columns DATE, or, if necessary, fractions of a second TIMESTAMP.
To convert strings from one format to another, you can always use TO_DATE to convert any format they are dates and then use TO_CHAR to generate a new string, in any desired output format.
In this case, it seems that you just want to lose the split second, change the 3rd indent to a space and change points to colons. You can do the following:
SUBSTR (datatype, 1, 10).
' ' ||
REPLACE (SUBSTR (datatype, 12, 8)
, '.'
, ':'
)
If you would care to post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for some sample data and accurate results, you want from these data, then I could test this.
Check out the Forum FAQ: Re: 2. How can I ask a question on the forums?
You could do all the work in a single call REGEXP_REPLACE, but it is probably more complicated and less effective.
