Special characters in data loading maps

Hi all

I was hoping to get some tips on loading data mappings in FMDEE 11.1.2.4. For example, in the entity Dimension I have a source value of T9843_A10_CTL_3040000 I need to map to a value target of just the last 7 digits, 3040000. It is advisable to use the explicit mapping for this case with a special character?

Source Target                                                           

T9843_A10_CTL_3040000 30400000

Thank you

ED

Although put in context and makes more sense now :-)

FDMEE provides a good way to manage your condition in a similar map. If the value of your source has a number of segments separated by underscores, you can use the following mapping expression that meets your needs:

Create a SIMILAR with Source = <4>value mapping and value target = *.

It will identify the fourth (identified by the symbol <4>) segment of your source of value and use it as the value for your target. As long as all values in your source are a uniform 4 segments, that should cover all your mappings of 1000 + in a single map!

  • Special characters could not load DB via SQL * MORE

    Hi, I have a pl as .accidentally sets sql script which will insert data in database. The question is there are some records are missing and these missing records contains a special character: Sansao and Strasse. The strange was if I run the script via F5 (Toad), all data can be inserted successfully but run through SQL * MORE (Toad), all records that contain special characters are not inserted.

    Anyone here know why it didn't load these special characters via SQL * MORE?

    Probably because you have given unicode (multi byte charsets) you read with a customer of standard single-byte character set.

    It's SILLY to loading data using SQL * more. It's the wrong tool used for loading the data. It does not support the bind variable. It doesn't support liaison in bulk. It does not support direct path inserts. It is not SQL * Loader.

  • JSON format - Date and special characters

    Hi all

    I had a JSON server in which, I have a few text values and date.

    1. How can I convert special characters to normal String.e.g. Comma etc. ?
    2. How can I convert long date, a string in the format e.g. "1345670466960-0400"?

    I really appreciate any help above.

    Solved... Where the above closure. For others, I will post the solution.

    Special characters-

    QByteArray buffer(bufSize, 0);
    int read = reply->read(buffer.data(), available);
    //response = QString(buffer); -- Wrong way to convert the bytes.
    response = QString::fromUtf8(buffer); // right way, so special character handled itself.
    

    Day fromatting - for example "/ Date (1345670466960-0400).

    QString getStringDate(QString k){
        QDateTime date = QDateTime::fromTime_t(getDate(k));

  • empty data file with special characters in the name

    Hi all

    I'm having a problem with an empty data file which is in recovery mode.

    When I created a record of control file I see the data file has special characters in the name:

  • XML - text form loading external text contains special characters

    Hi @ all...

    in my projects, I often use xml files to load external text that I can format it in css and it worked fine until now...

    I have a site that I am prograaming in Italian and German and in both languages, there are amount of text that contains special characters like ' to' 'o'' 'e' 'u' 'a' 'u' and so on... the problem is that when I write a text with characters in xml file when the text is loaded into this flash of special characters are not recognized , and instead of them appears a small square...

    I tried to load the text from a html instead of an XML file (because in HTML, I know how to write these special characters and let them display right in my pages html... for example = & agrave; but not way... the flash now loades the text & agrave; instead of to...)

    How can I solve this problem?

    a big thanks to everyone!

    Hello

    You should probably incorporate the fonts that you use in your FLA file before you publish the SWF file. Just go through the steps in the video @ http://blip.tv/file/2357619 if that helps.

    You can also use TRANSLATE to get rid of the unwanted characters:

  • special characters hurt speaking of bridge in the loaded script

    Why is it so what can I do?

    I use several scripts in Illustrator. Some of them that I use in this way:

    http://www.davidebarranca.com/2012/11/ScriptUI-BridgeTalk-persistent-window-examples/

    Now, I tried to built in two other scripts in the palette. In these scripts, it is necessary to use special characters in variables. Autonomous, these scripts are correct work.

    Here's a simple example:

    // exampleScript.jsx
    var a = '\u201d'+" example "+'\u201d';
    alert(a)
    

    I get this (correct) result:

    script_standalone.png

    But when I call this example script with bridge talk:

    var scriptToLoad = new File(pathToScript + "/exampleScript.jsx");
    var win = new Window('palette', 'own palette');
    var btnSelect = win.add('button', undefined, 'example');
    btnSelect.onClick = function()
    {scriptToLoad.open("r"); var bt = new BridgeTalk;
    bt.target = "illustrator"; var script = scriptToLoad.read();
    scriptToLoad.close(); bt.body = script; bt.send();}
    win.center();
    win.show();
    

    Here is the same script and a wrong result:

  • 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.

    Here is the dirty work. you have to find via regex features, remove the

    replace the point of code unicode w / the returned.
