Order by date with a format mask column

10g - 10.2.0

Hello

This is my request

select to_char(exp_Date,'Mon-YYYY') dt, count(*) from exp_main
where exp_type like 'Income%Photo%'
group by to_char(exp_Date,'Mon-YYYY')
order by exp_date

When I run this I get: not a GROUP BY expression

If I remove the order by, it works fine.

Is it possible to order by since the output of the query is sorted character.

I search online most suggested to use the order of column_name. But does not work for me.

Thank you!
Ryan

Hello

Keep the date information as a DATE, with the exception (if required) for display. That means that GROUP BY and ORDER BY DATE, not a string:

SELECT    TO_CHAR ( TRUNC (exp_Date, 'MONTH')
              , 'Mon-YYYY'
            )          AS dt
,       COUNT (*)           AS cnt
FROM        exp_main
WHERE        exp_type     LIKE 'Income%Photo%'
GROUP BY  TRUNC (exp_Date, 'MONTH')
ORDER BY  TRUNC (exp_date, 'MONTH')
;

validation of digital data with a format mask
Hello

I have the following situation:

field 'Amount' COMP (11.0) in a table.
a form for this amount with a p8_amount parameter and a format mask. for example 1234 becomes 1,234.

I entered a large amount of data.

Now, I want to build a validation.
But I get an error of conversion (character number) takes the apex the field amount 1234 makes 1.234
and that's why I no longer use to_number (causing the conversion error).

How to convert the parameter to a number?

Any response will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hello

TO_NUMBER (String) may have problems if there is non-numeric characters, however, you can apply a format string so that it can be used in the conversion:
```
TO_NUMBER(string, '9G999')
```

Download Apex 4.2 - blob in report with the Format mask

Hello
I need a little help.
I have a report like this:
SELECT id, file_name, dbms_lob.getlength (blob_content)
of blob_docs;
The column with the dbms_lob, is defined by the format mask, as a download link, saving up the BLOB to the user of the computer.
My problem is a bit silly, I don't want to see 'Download', but the file name of each record, such as the 'link text'... but I can't seem to achieve this goal.
My format mask looks like:
DOWNLOAD: BLOB_DOCS:BLOB_CONTENT:ID:MIMETYPE:FILE_NAME:LAST_UPDATE:CHARSET:Attachment: download
I tried to use #FILE_NAME # in the field 'Text download', since it is one of the column names, but nothing helped.
Also used & FILE_NAME. but obviously does not work and gets the text "Download".
All I want is a report that looks like
File1
File2
File3
Instead of
Download file1
Download File2
Download file3
Does anyone know how to get there?
Thank you!!

Download File2

Unfortunately (and annoying), it doesn't seem possible to do using the declarative format BLOB mask. Instead, a personalized download link should be generated in the report query using the apex_util.get_blob_file_src method of the API.

[REQUEST] Automatically display the number with the format mask

Hi Expert,
I use Jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0.
I have a problem to display the input text that automatically uses the format mask user input, as for example the entered user 10000 then the field will automatically display of 10,000
Is this possible to do?

I already find but I just had to format mask that the user must input 10 000 not automatically display in format.

Please your advice, really appreciate your help.

Thank you

I already find but I just had to format mask that the user must input 10 000 not automatically display in format.

Can you describe your use case a little more?

The format is applied only when the focus is moved out of the field.

You want to display the groups directly separator when the user inserts the value in the field?

In this case, you will need to use javascript, and format the entry after each character. This technique is described in the blog of Frank https://blogs.oracle.com/jdevotnharvest/entry/get_social_security_numbers_right

SQL Developer: How to copy the data with the output grid column headers?
Hello

I use the 2.1.1.64 Version.

I run a SQL query, down the results grid in the "Query result" window below. Say that I get 10 rows returned, with 5 columns.

I want to copy this whole grid, as well as the names/column headers to the Clipboard. If I can stick under the original query to document the results of this query.

I can't find any way to do this. I can copy/paste the results grid, but it does not copy the headers.

The only way I think to do is to go through many steps to export in a TXT file, then paste that. Unfortunately, that's a lot of steps wasted if I need to do it again and again, and more, the output is pasted in an ugly format with double quotes, etc..

It seems that the easiest feature is copy and paste the entire grid of the results, and of course, you could the headers. Why is it so difficult/impossible to do?

(I think that the toad has the same problem. DBArtisan lets you copy and paste the results together, as well as headers, however.)

Any help would be appreciated!

Thank you
John
Shift-Ctrl-C will copy the headers of columns as well as the selected data.

Excerpt from SQL data with specific format.
All,

I have the oracle database version 10.2.0.4 in which I need to extract data from a table using the format below.

1.1 st 3 positions of the postal code, followed by
2.1 st letter of the name, followed by
3.1 st 2 consonants in the name of the street, followed
4 2 (for companies)

I can use the function substr to 1 and 2 above.
For 3, I tried regexp_substr. but the output includes vowels too. I don't know how to proceed. Is there another function or is there another way to do it?

I am concatenating 3 columns and display data as below.
for example
```
Col1            Col2         Col3     
FLOOR INC  24540       67 FRANKLIN TPKE STE 114 

Displayed as 
245FFR2     
234AAS2 
```
Help, please.
```
-- testdata:
with yourtable as
(
  select 'abcdefg' name from dual union all
  select '1aBexea' name from dual
)
-- query for first two consonants:
select substr(regexp_replace(regexp_replace(name,'[^a-zA-Z]',''),'[aeiouAEIOU]',''),1,2)
from yourtable;
```
Explanation:
-Internal Regexp removes everything except the letters.
-Outer Regexp removes vowals and keep the consonants.
-substr selects the first two consonants.

Import ASCII dates with different format

Hello

I need to import data from a CSV of ASCII.

The problem is the date format in this particular data file (.csv)

The date format for day< 10="" and="" month="" from="" jan="" to="" sep="">

AAAA/_M/_Dthe character '_' is a simple space, not an underscore literally

The format of the date days > = 10 and Jan to Sep month is:

_M/JJ/AAAA

The format of the date days > = 10 and months of Oct to dec is:

YYYY/MM/DD

The date format for day< 10="" and="" months="" from="" oct="" to="" dec="">

YYYY/MM/_D

Possible solution:

I already create a routine that recognizes the date in the title and one of the 4 (.stp) filter uses for data processing. These are the works.

Next problem:

The days are separated into 2 files, a file from 09:00 to 21:00 one day and the other from 21:00 to 09:00 on the following day. It's the way I've lost data when the day changes from 9th to the 10th of each month and the month change of Sept Oct and Dec to Jan.

I just need to delete the blankspace unconfortable before the changes of dates 2-digit, but I do not know how to deal with the before CSV imported to tiara (10.2).

My other idea is to recognize this file and any double (once with each please) but I need to exactly position the import is not the problem with the data of novalue. (Until know I got complicated for a simple mistake of blankspace).

I hope that you have ideas...

Thanks in advance...

I don't know if I understand that measures are not clear. Here's what I think you want to do:

(1) load data from different files in DIAdem

To do this, you must use "DataFileLoad("E:\Customer_Requests\caracasnet\log(111231).csv","caracasnet_log","Load") call.

You call DataFileLoad for each of the files.

(2) you want to concatenate the groups.
This should be no different than what you've done up to now

(3) you want to store the data in a file (TDM).
To do this, you must call DataFileSave (...)

Let me know if you have any other questions...

Transfer of data with rowtype block

Hello
I'm using the version of oracle forms 11g (11.1.2.1.0 on 64-bit windows).
I have a block of data with a lot of columns.
I have what it takes to fill the block of data at A TIME-NEW-FORM-INSTANCE with the query.
My problem is, I have what it takes to fill the block with % rowtype (and not every article in separately), since I have a lot of elements (= columns) in this data block.
Here is my code (in One TIME-NEW-FORM-BODY relaxation):
DECLARE
CURSOR pop_blck_cur IS
Select *.
ALERTS. CRDX_ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES
where (PROCESS_TYPE_ID, STATUS_DATE) in (select PROCESS_TYPE_ID, max (STATUS_DATE), 'MOST UPDATED'
ALERTS. CRDX_ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES
Group of PROCESS_TYPE_ID)
order of PROCESS_TYPE_ID;
l_row pop_blck_cur % ROWTYPE;
l_first_rec NUMBER;
l_last_rec NUMBER;
cur_rec NUMBER;
BEGIN
LAST_RECORD;
l_last_rec: =: system.trigger_Record;
PREMIER_ENREGISTREMENT;
l_first_rec: =: system.trigger_Record;
cur_rec: = l_first_rec;
FOR rec IN pop_blck_cur
LOOP
GO_BLOCK ('ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES_BLOCK');
cur_rec: = GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY ('ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES_BLOCK', CURRENT_RECORD);
GO_RECORD (cur_rec);
ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES_BLOCK % ROWTYPE : = l_row; -here I need the slider assignment to my block of data
WHEN THE OUTPUT: SYSTEM. LAST_RECORD = "TRUE";
NEXT_RECORD;
END LOOP;
How to achieve this?
Tanks in advance,
Elad

This isn't the works of forms in a way.

Your base on your table of CRDX_ALERTS_PROCESS_TYPES block

Equip your WHERE condition the default value of the property - where the block.

In the WHEN-NEW - EXAMPLE of FORM, just put an EXECUTE_QUERY;

If you want to fill the block "by hand", you will need to assign each item separately.

Identify the weekend and the days of the week a date and update the empty column

Hi, I look at previous posts that are similar to my question, but nothing helps.

I have a column called incident_date that is in this format and comes from the Nov_Final table

01-JUL-2009 20.10
04-NOV-2009 17.00
16-DEC-2009 16.00

In Nov_Final, I created a column called weekend

What I want to do is to perform an update, something like this:

Update Nov_Final

SET Weekend=(case when Incident_date ='WEEKEND' THEN 'Y' ELSE 'N' END)

Banner:
Oracle Database 11 g Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64 bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
"CORE 11.2.0.2.0 Production."
AMT for Linux: Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.2.0 - Production

Weekend would be Saturday or Sunday. 
In short I need to find out if the incident_date falls on a weekend and if it does update the weekend column as 'Y' else 'N' if it's not.

You can use TO_CHAR function with a format mask as "fmDAY" to your needs:

with t_data
as
(
select sysdate + level as col1 from dual connect by level <= 7
)
SELECT
    col1,
    TO_CHAR(col1,'fmDAY') col_day,
    CASE
        WHEN TO_CHAR(col1,'fmDAY') IN ('SATURDAY','SUNDAY')
        THEN 'Y'
        ELSE 'N'
    END AS weekend_ind
FROM
    t_data;

COL1                      COL_DAY                     WEEKEND_IND
------------------------- --------------------------- -----------
08-NOV-11 07:54:12        TUESDAY                     N

Digital Format on column displayed as a Popup LOV mask

APEX 4.2 using theme 24. In a tabular presentation, I have a column that is defined in the table as number 4 and I display as a Popup LOV. I want to display on the initial load data form left padded with zeros - 0000 format mask. The Popup LOV gray on the ability to set the format mask. If I change it to a text field I can define the mask and display it as I want. I need to allow users to choose one of the LOV based on another table where the column is defined as a character. When the value is selected in the LOV it appears with the full left 4 digits padded with leading zeros, which is what I want. However as I said on the initial load of data the leading zeros are not displayed. It's really just a matter of Visual for the users, it is part of a GL account number and users are accustomed to seeing the full figures as if it was the character. And please do not suggest I change the column in the table of characters too much process on the side server use it as a number.
Thanks for the feasible suggestions!

Simply select it in the source region like query:

Edition of text column data Format database columns of answers
Hello

We use Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition v10.1.3.4 on the cube for OLAP Oracle 11 g. Reports we create have (among other things) columns with an underlying type of VARCHAR data in oracle tables.

When we try to change the properties of such a VARCHAR column column, "Data Format" tab shows only 'Plain Text' as an option under the menu drop-down "Override default data Format". Options to display the text 'HTML' or 'LINKS', etc. are not available.

All entries on what can be done in the answers or the repository to get these options for formatting of column data are highly appreciated.

Thank you
Piyush
You set your HardenXSS to false in the instanceconfig.xml file? By default, OBIEE is set to true. Setting to false allows the HTML tags to appear as options for fields VAR. check it out here... Chapter 2, page 37.
