for the number and character data type

Hello
I want a field to be consist of numeric values and characters.
Is there any type of data like this in oracle?

;)

SQL> create table vehicles (reg varchar2(10));

Table created.

SQL> insert into vehicles (reg) values ('VIC123');

1 row created.

SQL> insert into vehicles (reg) values ('ABC4566');

1 row created.

SQL> select * from vehicles;

REG
----------
VIC123
ABC4566

SQL>

I guess that your 1300 odd other messages are not in one of the SQL or PL/SQL Developer type forums then as someone with whom I would expect several posts to know that they can store things in a VARCHAR column?

  • Where that we manage for the display and entry date formats

    the specification of the user that is displayed as DD-MON-YYYY dates. Is there a config or properties file that contains the date format for display? Is there a drop down calendar which can be positioned next to an input field to date for a question on a screen?
    Thank you
    Allan

    Hi Allan,

    Just had a look at this takeover bid 10.1 on my machine.

    I noticed that for an attribute date as on a screen, when you use Input type = Year, Month and Day edits (in the file screens), it seems to display the three drop-down lists in the same order (day, month, year), regardless of what's been defined in the configuration line "input-date-formats" in messages. file .properties (locale).

    However, I was not sure of your email if the DD-MON-YYYY format was necessary for the entriesto date, or just for the display of date output. If the latter, then using the following in your messages. (place) .properties file...

    output-date-format = yyyy-MMM-dd
    

    ... will translate dates displayed like this: 1980-Jan-27

    To force the OWD to accept only dates of entry of user in the format '1980-Jan-27' then you can edit the line input-date-formats of configuration:

    input-date-formats = yyyy-MMM-dd
    

    ... However, it is rare to restrict the dates of entry into a single format. As you will see in the messages. (locale) .properties file entry-date-formats is set to a combination of common entry to the regional settings date formats, in addition to the ISO international date format (YYYY-MM-DD, e.g. 1980-01-27).

    See you soon,.

  • How can I use internal clock case OR USB - 6259 BNC for the acquisition of digital data in my own big software?

    I want to integrate the ANSI C sample program ReadDigPort - ExtClk.c in my own big package.

    I want to use the internal clock of the BNC NI USB-6259 (.. 80 kHz 120 kHz).

    In the document:
    High speed M: Series Multifunction DAQ for USB - 16-bit, up to 1.25 MECH built-in BNC connectivity. / s,.
    is written:
    Or sample DI source clock: Any PFI, RTSI, HAVE sample or convert clock, AO, Ctr n out internal and many other signals sample clock
    The digital subsystem doesn't have its own dedicated internal synchronization engine. Therefore, a sample clock must be provided another subsystem on the device or from an external source.

    How can I use internal clock case OR USB - 6259 BNC for the acquisition of digital data in my own big software?
    With what other subsystem on the device can generate a source of the clock? How?

    It is possible to set a clock on an internal counter (for example ' Dev1/ctr0"):
    Creates channels to generate digital impulses that define the freq and dutyCycle and adds the channel of the task that you specify with taskHandle.
    DAQmxCreateCOPulseChanFreq (taskHandle, "Dev1/ctr0" units, clockName, idleState,
    initialDelay, freq, the duty cycle); works

    But it is not possible to drive this internal clock to a terminal (for example "/ PFI0/Dev1"):
    DAQmxErrChk (DAQmxCreateCOPulseChanFreq (taskHandle, "/ PFI0/Dev1", clockName, units, idleState, '))
    initialDelay, freq, the duty cycle); does not work: error DAQmx: measurements: type I/O of the physical channel does not match the type of I/O required for the virtual channel you create. Name of the physical channel: PFI0. Name of the virtual channel: clock

    The sample clock source can be derived from an external terminal (for example "/ PFI0/Dev1"):
    Sets the source of the sample clock, the sample clock rate and the number of samples to acquire or generate.
    DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming (taskHandle, "/ PFI0/Dev1", maximumExpectedSamplingRate, DAQmx_Val_Rising, ")
    DAQmx_Val_ContSamps, bufferSize); works. Acquire or generate samples until you stop the task

    But it is not possible to derive the internal counter of the clock (for example ' Dev1/ctr0"):
    DAQmxCfgSampClkTiming (taskHandle, "Dev1/ctr0", maximumExpectedSamplingRate, DAQmx_Val_Rising,
    DAQmx_Val_ContSamps, bufferSize); does not work. Error: Acquire or generate samples until you stop the task: make sure that the name of the terminal is valid for the specified device. See Measurement & Automation explore valid names of terminals. Property: Property of DAQmx_SampClk_Src: DAQmx_SampClk_ActiveEdgeSource device: Terminal Source Dev1: Dev1/ctr0

    Hi datafriend,

    using what it says is correct:

    Or sample DI source clock: Any PFI, RTSI, HAVE sample or convert clock, AO, Ctr n out internal and many other signals sample clock
    The digital subsystem doesn't have its own dedicated internal synchronization engine. Therefore, a sample clock must be provided another subsystem on the device or from an external source.

    This means that if you do not use an external signal as clock you can use the sample clock to HAVE it on board or at the output of the internal counter.

    There are also 2 ANSI C examples in this regard:

    http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/EPD/p/ID/4485

    http://zone.NI.com/DevZone/CDA/EPD/p/ID/4488

    So in both cases you have to use a fictitious task you need only for the generation of the internal clock (HAVE or CTR)

  • FAT32, exFAT, NTFS, which is the best for the recovery of deleted data?

    I have a usb 3.0 port (Kingston 100 3 16 GB) to store my important data. I read the article on this site: http://www.ntfs.com/ntfs_vs_fat.htm

    and they say recoverablitity of exFAT is "Yes if FAT active." I don't know what FAT and how to activate it, and what type of file system should I use (FAT, exFAT, NTFS) for the highest ability of data recovery if they are deleted?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    According to the description of problem, you're ready to recover the deleted data and would like to know some information about the FAT.

    A transaction-safe FAT (FAT) file system is a file system designed specifically to ensure the security of transactions for data stored on a disk. FAT requires a driver of specific hardware designed for the type of media on which the volume of FAT will exist. Assuming that there is a driver of material-specific secure transaction block, and that the driver provides interfaces to standard FAT file system, the FAT may work on removable media such as Compact Flash cards and digital cards secured, as well as media not removable, such as hard drives and NAND Flash memories.

    By design, the FAT file system is not a secured file transaction system. FATF may be corrupted if a write operation is interrupted in the middle of a transaction. Interruptions to occur due to loss of power or the suppression of the media. Fat is corrupted when the content of the FAT table does not have directory sections or data on the volume.

    I suggest you to return the article mentioned below and see if it helps you to recover lost or deleted data on your computer.

  • Best way to clean the paragraph and character catalogs?

    Over the years, I have created a bunch of tags of paragraph and character for different types of documents: novels, technical manuals, etc. For a given document type, I'll use some tags and some don't. For example, a novel will not use numbered steps or sideheads.

    The problem is after years of import for the last tags of a certain type, all files in all chapter books have swelled catalogs, full of tags that are not used and are not applicable for the type of document. I would like to clean these catalogues and let only relevant tags to this kind of document. I'm ready to take the hit if a chapter or book uses a tag that it should not, as long as I know what it is.

    What is the "best practices" way to achieve this? What method do you recommend?

    1. Create a template with the own catalogue file, open each book individually, remove all of the tags file and re - import the template tags?
    2. Create a template with the own catalogue file, and then create new books of the model, copy and paste the text of the original of the files bloated?
    3. Others?

    I understand that the process will be painful, as to clean out her garage. But I'm sick of tripping over all the echoes I have accumulated.

    Thanks for the thoughts and suggestions.

    Ken

    Ken,

    Your #1 approach is probably the best way to go. However, instead of trying to clean up the tags manually, take a look at paragraph of Steve Kubis and character tools. See: http://www.siliconprairiesoftware.com/Products.html

    This will help clean up a lot of things and they are reasonably priced. It also has corresponding tools for the management of cross-references, variables, arrays, and colors that all work you same way. You can try before you buy.

    And how one removes the Christmas lights that have been offered as a decoration for the top and bottom of the screen. They tend to hide the navigation bar. Several days ago Firefox gave the 'dress-up' in a message.

    It seems that https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/christmas-lights/ is added as an extension, but is categorized as a character (lightweight themes). Go to tools > Modules then check extensions and themes, and then uninstall it.

    Now that the status bar is now the toolbar addons that I see those that are listed are all personas and they do not affect the toolbar addons you would also find a theme, and think that it must be very confused now that I no longer able to filter topics with a Google addons research - phooey.

  • App for the time and payroll sheet calculations

    My daughter in hospitality makes work so much split and travel on a Saturday and Sunday. I am looking for an application that we can punch in his hours for the week and be able to do the calculation of salary based on the appropriate hourly rate so that we can keep control of when it is paid as it's done correctly. Essentially, I'm lookin for an app connects timesheet information to the payroll data. Such an application exists and if so can anyone recommend one? Happy to pay for an if need be.

    Hello alissah6,

    Numbers from Apple is what I would recommend as far as doing calculations with a simple formula. You can learn more about this here.

    The application costs $14.99, however it is packed and has more than 30 models - not to mention, you can also create your own if necessary.

    I would check it out certainly if I'm looking for a few terms related to pay calculation in the App Store.

    Thank you
