ORA-01747: Oracle reserved words
Hello gurus,
I have a problem with words reserved for Oracle, one of the applications is by using table that has the column NUMBER. I'm not able to query this table corresponding to the database with a column for the NUMBER.
HERE
I tried the double quotes ("'") and sigle quote also, none of them worked.select a.* from DOC a , FOLDER B where a.NUMBER= B.INCIDENT_ID and b.open = 'Closed';
Any help much appreciated. Thank you.>
SQL error: ORA-00904: "A." "' number ': invalid identifier
>
This means that by using double quotes RESOLVED your original problem and now the problem is that you do not have a column with the name in lowercase 'number '.If you query all_tab_cols you see what really is the name of the column. You must use the name exactly as it appears in that discovers and surround it with double quotes.

How can I identify all the words in capital letters and change to initcaps?
Hello
I'm using Oracle 11.g
I have a table with multiple textual data varchar2 columns. There are several words that are all uppercase. In all cases, these capital words should be replaced by different cases (for example, HELLO Hello). How find the capitalized words in all the lines and change them to mixed-case?
Thanks for your help.
The rownum in your update statement is probably taken as the virtual rownum http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e41084/pseudocolumns009.htm#SQLRF00255
This is probably the reason why the script compiles, but the update does not work as there is no column named rownum in your table (even if it exists, rename it as is among the reserved words http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e41084/ap_keywd001.htm#SQLRF55621)
trying to avoid loops to the extent possible, that I see it more as

A while back, before the Forum, I asked a question on something and someone commented on how I used 'round' as a column, and it is a reserved word.
I finally got the attention of management on this issue, and they want more information. I found many ways to track down the reserved words, and I have a long list of bounce however to find columns in need of change.
HOWEVER.
In ANY of these lists is the word 'ROUND. "
He knows another TYPE of keyword or something, because I need to know what to look for on. I want to make sure I cover all the bases on this one since I had to make quite the stink from the attention required to open a project for it.
Thank you!
Well I can not check in 10g. 11 g ROUND is in the list of reserved words, but it is not marked as reserved.
KEYWORD LENGTH RESERVED RES_TYPE RES_ATTR RES_SEMI DOUBLE
ROUND 5 N N N N N
Who (I think) means that oracle does not raise an error, if you use it somewhere, for example as column name.
Once again, which means the code will get totally confused and potentially buggy.
This is why it is not recommended to use these keywords.
TestScript:
create table testkw (ID number, round number);
insert into testkw
Select the level, level/5 from dual connect by level<>
SELECT id, testkw (round) round;
drop table testkw;

ODI 12 c mapping, treating of reserved words on CBC and FIT data sources
Hi people
I have this problem:
My SOURCE is an instance of MS SQL Server 2000 and my GOAL is Oracle 12 g
I use the mapping, and I want to map this table "ICACCT" of the SQL Server to the same table in the Oracle database
But it won't let me not even validate my mapping and when I hit post, it throws this error:
An error was encountered when parsing the expression: ICACCT. DESC. The default parser supports the ANSI SQL delimiter.
If you want a nonstandard syntax, use delimiters form free expression / %% and %% / around the expression
[I know DESC is a reserved word in SQL Server and you can't question like this: 'SELECT DESC OF the TABLE' unless put you it between hook]
How can I solve this problem? is there a way to tell ODI to use aliases for this? (DESC description)
I really appreciate your help,
I found a solution!
Both the ODI 12 I went and edited the LKM SQL for Oracle
All what you need to do is put a support [ and ] or around your field name ([COL_HEADING]), and that's the change I've made:
-Open LKM SQL for Oracle
- Go to tasks
-Click on "load data".
-On the "Source order" edit box change the following:
<%=odiRef.getColList(i, "", "[EXPRESSION]\t[ALIAS_SEP] [CX_COL_NAME]", ",\n\t", "", "")%>
TO:
<%=odiRef.getColList(i, "", "[[COL_HEADING]]\t[ALIAS_SEP] [[CX_COL_NAME]]", ",\n\t", "", "")%>

Then I tried google and found this note

which seems to highlight something similar but Ive still to see where the word POSITION is a reserved word. Ive accepted that it is at this point and no biggie to change but point of interest NoahPOSITION is indeed a reserved words for the ORACLE_LOADER access driver (which is the default driver to load data in an external table in the text file)

Hi all
I have a table with a column called TRANSLATION. I noticed that it is a reserved word in SQLFire, but found no reference in the documentation.
I also did not find to themselves to escape the word seserved (assuming that's possible).
Does anyone have an idea?
Thank you
IKA.
A way around this is to use the keyword in capital letters, quotation marks:
create table 'TRANSLATE' (whole col1);
Here is the list of reserved keywords comes entirely from Derby, which, in turn, comes entirely from SQL92:
http://DB.Apache.org/derby/docs/10.1/ref/rrefkeywords29722.html
Please let us know if it works for you.

Best practices for the use of reserved words
Hello
What is the best practice for the use of the reserved words as column names.
For example if I insisted on the use of the word to a column name comment as follows:
CREATE TABLE...
VARCHAR2 (4000) "COMMENT."
...
What is the impact on the track I could expect and what problems should I be informed when doing something like that?
Thank you
BenThe best practice is NOT to use reserved words anywhere.
Developers are human beings human. Humans have their moments to forget things.
They will not forget to use the "", or you can force it to use the "' everywhere.
The two methods are Oracle certified ways to end up in hell.----------

What to do when a table name is a reserved word?
I know that the best answer is not to use a reserved word to name a table. But I have no control over it in this situation. I read that all Caps and citations will allow you to use the table name in the queries, i.e. 'CATEGORY' is supposed to make the table to use. But that is certainly not to work, nor any variation of this setting in the form.
Anyone know how to format a reserved word to allow queries?
Thank youHello

Yes, it works, but if I want to refer to a column in this table (i.e. WHERE to EDIT. F_ID = 4) quotes do not work.They work for me.
Post your code; It is difficult to tell what you're doing wrong without knowing what you are doing.Massimo Ruocchio wrote:
BTW CATEGORY is not a reserved word:
No, 'CATEGORY' is not a reserved word, but it is a key word:
SELECT keyword FROM v$reserved_words WHERE keyword LIKE 'CAT%' ORDER BY keyword; KEYWORD ------------------------------ CATEGORY
so there may be situations where it should be in double quotes. It is best not to use any keyword for your own tables or columns.

I have a guest spot for use to third parties, on my computor. How can I install programs like 'Word' and e-mail on the page 'comments '.
There are many limitations on the guest account, this is why you cannot see Word or are unable to open it.
Instead of using the guest account, create a new standard user account, it should provide access to most of the programs, but is still limited.
