  Hi all

  I am trying to remove special characters without the help of regular expressions.

  translate (the column name or string,'!@#$ & * (* () _) * "" :} {?}) >? /, «, » ')

  I want to eliminate this manual process to give all special characters using a chr() or ascii() function.

  Please show me the way.

  Thanks in advance

• Function to remove special characters

  I'm trying to figure out if there is a function anywhere in the Finder that can be used to remove special characters in a field. I wish they had just removed. Any help would be great.
  
  Thank you!

  934527,

  I'm glad it helped.

  When I said, "import" function, I should say, 'save' function. Using the administration tool of the Disco, the following should be done:

  -Connect to the instance of eul
  -Select Tools > register of PLSQL function
  -the import function (owner is SYS) and the function is in the package, 'STANDARD '. It seems that you did not identify SYS as the owner. In addition, it is very important to be aware that the 'STANDARD' is the package.

  Directions to the disco of 11g administration tool are here, http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/bi.1111/b32519/adpsff01.htm.

• Function to remove special characters in a column.

  Hi all

  In one of my column, we get special characters, as well as others. The data are extracted and loaded through Informatica. We are not face any problem while loading into the target, but when we try to extract these data through the report, it fails with the error:

  ORA-29275: partial multibyte character sets

  When we check this column, we find the special characters. Initially, we have implemented logic with the CHR to replace these NULL values. But every time we get different values. To make the permanent solution, we decided to remove all characters except available on Board of the key.

  Now, to this end, I need to write a function in Oracle's PL/SQL. I do not know more easy way from there to achieve. If I go with the CHR() function, I have to write for all these characters, which I think is not the right solution.

  Enjoy, if someone can help me identify the function or the way to get there.

  Thanks in advance.

  It depends on your keyboard.

  All that is on the keyboard you, something similar to this shoud work:

  REGEXP_REPLACE (string_column

  , '[^]0-9A-Za-z~!@#$%^&*()_+`={}| [\:";'' <>?,./-]'

  )

  This will return a copy of string_column, but with all the characters that are not not in the 2nd deleted argument.

  [Inside the brackets, ']' must come first (immediately after the ' ^') and '-' must come last.

  Hello

  Here's one way:

  SELECT REGEXP_REPLACE (str, '\D') AS digits_only

  FROM table_x;

  where str is the column.

  I hope that answers your question.

  If this isn't the case, please post a small example of data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) for all of the tables involved and also publish outcomes from these data.

  If you ask on a DML statement, such as UPDATE, the sample data will be the content of the or the tables before the DML, and the results will be the State of the or the tables changed when it's all over.

  Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.

  Always say what version of Oracle you are using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

• SQL to remove special characters from my research

  Hello world.  I am very new to sql and hit another road block.  I do a query on my database in oracle sql developer.  I want to search numbers manufacturer but sometimes they were seized with dashes (999-99-9999) and other times not (999999999) is possible to use a function that give my number query and in the mfr_nbr database column on the dashboard in two?

  any help would be appreciated.

  Kelly

  Hi, Kelly.

  Of course, you can use REPLACE function to return a copy of a string, but with all dashes (if there is) removed.

  For example, if you have a string: user_input and you try to compare this to mfr_nbr, but you don't know if one (or two) contains dashes, you can tell

  ...

  WHERE REPLACE (: user_input, '-') =.

  REPLACE (mfr_nbr, '-')

  You might want to permanently remove the dashes in the table, like this:

  UPDATE table_x

  SET mfr_nbr = REPLACE (mfr_nbr, '-')

  WHERE mfr_nbr LIKE '%-% '.

  ;

  then add a CHECK constraint (mfr_nbr = REPLACE (mfr_nbr, '-')) and perhaps a trigger, to keep the dashes in the table.

  You said it is corrupt, and you know n must be converted to n.

  You can add more characters you know the output should be, just add it to the function to translate.

  How to remove special characters in a string, it can contain. , (space), etc.

  SELECT TRANSLATE('123.456 (90-90)', '', '') FROM DUAL
  

  Basically I want to undress and to compare with the db value.

  WHERE TRANSLATE(TABLE.NUMCODE, '', '')  = TRANSLATE('123.456 (90-90)', '', '') 
  

  Use TRANSLATE, since you're on 9i. For example:

  TRANSLATE (your_string,'X,. #! % @$ ^ & * () _-+=', 'X')

  Removes all the s characters in ', #! % @$ ^ & * () _-+=' of your_string.

• Replace special characters in the FDF

  Hello

  I've looked everywhere and can't find the answer to this simple problem.  I can handle javascript in an HTML environment using free scripts, but it is not so easy in a PDF form.  I use Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro and I have a form that once completed and submitted, generates and sends a FDF file.  I use a script on the server side, called FormGenie do this and the script hate parentheses and some other characters, they break the FDF file.  Everything I want to do is set up a document level Javascript that find and replace all instances of these special characters with something license as a hyphen - or just a space.

  I tried:

  function clearText() {}
  document. FormName.FieldName.Value = filterNum (document. FormName.FieldName.value)

  function filterNum (str) {}
  re = /\$|#|~|\%|\*|\^|\(|\)|\+|\=|\[|\]|\[|\}|\{|\;|\"|\<|\>|\?| \|| \\|\!| \$/g;
  remove special characters as ' $' and ',' etc...
  return str.replace (re, "-");
  }
  }

  and

  function clearText2 (str) {}

  stringName = stringName.replace (/------$| #| ~ |------% |------* |------^ | \(|\) |--------+ |------= |------[|------] |------[{|------} |------{|------; |------"|"}]) ------< | ------> | \ ? | \|| \\|\!| \$ /g,'-');
  }

  I know that these are not good, but I have to be at least barking to the top of the tree on the right.

  Can anyone help?

  Thank you

  You create the form in Acrobat or LiveCycle Designer?

  In general, you can place a script typo in the script of the text of each filter field field hit, in the case where something replacing the user typed with something else would not cause the concern of the user. An alternative would be to be implemented a script that parses the fields just before the submission form action takes place and not to replace them.

  For example, you can use the following JavaScript typo customized for text fields created in Acrobat:

  If (! event.willCommit) {}

  Event.change = event.change.replace (/ [------$# ~ %------*------*------^ \ (\)------+=------[\]------{\};------"\<\>\?]) \ | \\\ !] /g, "-");

  }

  and it will replace these characters when the user types the data into a text field. May not include all the character you want replaced, but you should get the idea.

  Hello

  DEFINITION of use,

  If it is possible to enumerate all special characters, do this way:

  SELECT emplid, phno

  REPLACE (phno

  , '9 ./'

  , '9'

  ), Exit

  FROM table_x

  ;

  If it is impossible, or if it is easier to display the characters that you want to keep, then do it like this

  SELECT emplid, phno

  REPLACE (phno

  , '9  || TRANSLATE (phno

  , ' ?' 0123456789

  . '?'

  )

  , '9'

  ), Exit

  FROM table_x

  ;

  Whatever it is, the argument 3 of TRANSLATE is one of the characters that you want to keep (any), and the 2nd argument is that same character, followed by all the characters that you want to remove.

  Nevermind, you use such an old version.  Regular expressions are much easier.

  This will leave 1 "at the beginning of '13527358285'.  How to remove characters like this depends on means exactly what "characters like this.  It can probably be done in Oracle 8 without too many problems, according to your needs.

• Remove the spaces and special characters to a form field

  Hello

  I am tragically new to all this, but I'm trying to create a form in Adobe Acrobat 9.  I am trying to use a custom script Format to make entries in a form field and automatically remove the spaces and special characters (hyphens specifically).  For example, if a user 'RAN - 99 06' entries I want to change it to "RAN9906."  I found this script that does not allow users to input special characters

  If (! event.willCommit) {}

  
  Event.change = event.change.replace (/ [------$# ~ %------*------*------^-------------(\)------+=------[\]------{\}; \ "\ <>\ \?"]) \ | \\\ !] /g, "");

  }

  And it's OK, but I can't understand how to prohibit the spaces.  In addition, the perference would be a script to allow users to enter data as they wish, but to clean after leaving the text field.

  Thanks in advance!

  Yes, there are a few changes during the passage of the code of the event in the sequence of keys to the Validate event.

  First of all, you need not try the willCommit. In fact, when the sequence of events of field reached the Validate event, the field is already committed. The Validate event does not therefore the property of willCommit.

  Secondly, in the Validate event, you work on the event.value and either event.change. Thus, you will replace accordingly.

  And who should actually do.

  I hope this can help.
