  3 (without the single quotes) is a NUMBER. It is exactly equal to the NUMBER 03.
  "3" is a string. It isn't equalt to the string '03'.
  Do you want a NUMBER or a string?

  If you want the chain of characters-1 '3', use 'FMMM"instead of"MM ".

  select  TO_CHAR ( to_date ('MAR', 'Mon', 'NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=American')
                  , 'FMMM'
                  )   AS m
  from    dual
  

  To_char sometimes add padding (sometimes spaces, sometimes ' 0) for elements a constant width. For example, a few months need 2 characters for the "MM" format, then, TO_CHAR default, buffers left with '0' to do monthly 2 characters, whether or not they have need of 2 characters. With the help of "FM" (case sensitive) IN the format string change whether or not this kind of padding will be added.

  You could also use LTRIM to remove leaders ' 0 in this case, but why delete them when it is easier, is not to generate them in the first place?

• How to convert string to numeric number

  I have a list of dollar amounts which amounted to on a cfloop and the query:
  
  < cfset FileCount = 0 >
  < cfset FileDollar = 0 >
  
  < cfloop query = "TxtQuery" >
  < cfset FileDollar = #FileDollar # + "#Payment_Amt #" >
  < / cfloop >
  
  Here's the data (entry in the first column, payment_amt, combined with the title of the FileDollar column):
  
  Payment_amt (Text) FileDollar
  14645791.820 14645791.82
  5302608003.600 5317253795.42
  405642.240 5317659437.66
  11354914264.600 6672573702.3
  1532528.280 16674106230.5
  1532528.280 16675638758.8
  1532528.280 16677171287.1
  1532528.280 16678703815.4
  16470800280.000 33149504095.4
  
  It seems that once it hits the entrance of 11354914264.600 payment_amt, the FileDollar two decimal one.
  Is it possible to convert the numeric text field before it gets totaled?

  Thanks for the help. I eliminated the cfloop to add fields payment_amt and replaced by a Q Q (as you recommended) using a cast statement.

  
  SELECT SUM (CAST (Payment_amt AS decimal)) AS TOTAL_AMT
  to TxtQuery
  

  The TOTAL_AMT has correct total field now and is in decimal format.

  Thanks again for your help!

• [Oracle 8i] How to convert a string (timestamp) in a date?

  I find it difficult to know how to convert a string to a date time stamp (or possibly several).
  
  The timestamp is 20 positions, character (NOT NULL, CHAR (20))
  in the format: YYYYMMDDHHMMSSUUUUUU
  where Y = year, M = month, D = day, M = Minutes, S = seconds and U = microseconds
  
  The reason why I want to convert it is so that I can compare a timestamp to each other (that is, I want to be able to find the MIN (timestamp), MAX (timestamp) and make comparisons of inequality).
  
  Is this possible?
  
  Thanks in advance for the help on this!

  Hello

  As Damorgan said, if all you want to do is find which is the earlier or later, then you can just compare the strings: they are in a format where it works.

  If you need to do other things, such as compare to today date or see the difference between two of your lines of days, you will need to convert it to date. (He has no reason to convert them to numbers).

  A new TIMESTAMP data type, which manages the fractions of a second, was introduced in Oracle 9.
  Since you use Oracle 8 (depending on your subject line), or it must be
  (1) ignores the microseconds, or
  (2) use a separate column for microseconds.

  Whatever it is, use TO_DATE to convert the first 14 characters in DATE:

  TO_DATE ( SUBSTR (txt, 1, 14)
          , 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS'
          )
  

  where txt is your column of type CHAR.
  To convert microseconds to a number (between 0 and 999999):

  TO_NUMBER (SUBSTR (txt, 15))
  

• How to convert pdf to word

  I was sent an application form which is in pdf format. I clicked on the "edit and response" button that is displayed, but it is said that it is not supported. How to convert the pdf file to a word document so that I can add information to the document?

  There are a number of free PDF converters on the Mac App store, which allows you to convert text files, but I'm not aware of any free programs convert to Word. Besides knowing what looks like an application and how PDF conversion programs work well, I doubt that the results would be good, even if you've spent the money to buy one.

  However, if the file is not protected by, using the forecasting of Apple program, you should be able to fill out the form. Open the file using the preview, select the Tools menu and select annotate. Select the text option. A text box appears with the word TEXT in there you can change it, change the size and color and then move it to the desired location. Once you have done all of the annotations that you fill out the form, you can save it.

• How to convert a dynamic disk to a basic?

  How to convert a dynamic disk to a basic? I can't really deleat the C and readers of the system, and if so, how?

  Hi Brad,

  Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for the query display.

  According to the description, it seems that you want to convert a dynamic disk to Basic.

  However, we need more information about the issue to help you better.

  Please help me to answer these questions.

  1 how many partitions are on the hard drive?

  2 is installed Windows on drive C?

  3. you have any operating system installed on the hard drive?

  To convert the dynamic disk to basic, here are some steps that you can try.

  You can try to convert the dynamic disk drive basis (except your drive C :) using the Diskpart.exe in the command line. By following these steps, you can avoid reinstalling Windows XP. But if you want all the hard disk as a single partition, then proceed as follows.

  Note: Before formatting the hard drive or perform the steps, back up your data to an external storage device.

  Steps to convert dynamic disk to basic
  

  a. press Windows key + r on the keyboard and in the immediate window, type cmd.exe

  b. in the command prompt and type D iskpart .

  c. at the Diskpart prompt, type list disk . Note the number of the disk you want to convert to dynamic.

  d. at the Diskpart prompt, type select disk . (select the dynamic disk you want to convert.)

  e. at the Diskpart prompt, type clean to remove all volumes on the disk.

  (f) then, at the Diskpart prompt, type: convert base to begin to restore the disk to basic training.

  Respond us if you have any queries with hard drive problems and we will be happy to help you.
