  Your column and constraint names have traits that are not allowed in the names of identifiers.

  Try using instead underscore traits.

  You cannot use local collection types in SQL. You must create a bin_array of type like nested SQL table type. In addition, depending on the version you will not cast:

  SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE
    2    TYPE bin_array
    3      AS TABLE OF NUMBER
    4  /
  
  Type created.
  
  SQL>  create or replace
    2   PACKAGE C2_PAYMENT_DOC IS
    3  FUNCTION test_fun(l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array;
    4  end;
    5  /
  
  Package created.
  
  SQL> create or replace
    2  package body C2_PAYMENT_DOC as
    3
    4  FUNCTION test_fun (l_doc_id IN integer) RETURN bin_array IS
    5  l_gross bin_array := bin_array();
    6  begin
    7      l_gross.extend;
    8      l_gross(1) := l_doc_id;

• Invalid data type

  Hello
  
  I have the following tables:
  
  
  create table wine cellars
  (winecellarname varchar2 (50) primary key,)
  location varchar2 (50).
  owner varchar2 (50).
  Phone varchar2 (50).
  Museum char(1),
  BLOB of logo
  );
  
  create table wines
  (winetype, varchar2 (50))
  winecathegory varchar2 (50).
  year number 4.
  winecellarname varchar2 (50).
  VARCHAR2 (50) of origin;
  primary key (winetype, winecathegory, year, winecellarname).
  Foreign key (winecellarname) references winecellarname on delete cascade
  );
  
  But in the line which belongs to the sentence: create vdt TOAD gives me the following error: error on line 13. ORA-00902: invalid data Type
  
  I don't understand the reason for this error and I can fix it.
  
  Thank you. Concerning

  Found the problem:

  create table vino
  ( tipovino varchar2(50),
  categoriavino varchar2(50),
  anovendimia number(4),
  nombrebodega varchar2(50),
  denominacionorigen varchar2(50),
  precio/lproduc number(5),
  litrosproduc number(10),
  precio/lpublico number(5),
  primary key (tipovino,categoriavino,anovendimia,nombrebodega),
  foreign key (nombrebodega) references bodega on delete cascade
  )
  /
  

  ' Precio/lproduc' and "price/lproduc" columns contain a ' / ', which is not legal!

  Try this:

  create table vino
  ( tipovino varchar2(50),
  categoriavino varchar2(50),
  anovendimia number(4),
  nombrebodega varchar2(50),
  denominacionorigen varchar2(50),
  precio_lproduc number(5),
  litrosproduc number(10),
  precio_lpublico number(5),
  primary key (tipovino,categoriavino,anovendimia,nombrebodega),
  foreign key (nombrebodega) references bodega on delete cascade
  )
  /
  

  and it works perfectly. (See where I replaced ' / ' by '_' in two of these column names?)

  Hope that helps,

  Rose,

  Just a few questions:

  1. What is the source of your data?
  2. How did did you load it?
  3. have you already validated with SDO_GEOM. VALIDATE_GEOMETRY_WITH_CONTEXT?

  Kind regards.

• Number of error SQL ORA-00904: invalid column name has occurred.

  Hello
  on P8.18 on a Win 2003 server when we launch SWPAUDIT, it failed with:
  Number of error SQL ORA-00904: invalid column name has occurred. Query process failed.
  I searched this error on metalink3. Nothing in connection with.
  
  Any idea?
  
  Thank you.

  Please give a clear picture of what you are doing... .and what paintings... There is the possibility of the audit refers to certain tables... with deleted. names of columns just look in the structure of what you audit?

  Please, find the name of column...

  ORA-00904: string: invalid identifier
  Cause: The column name entered is invalid or missing.
  Action: Enter a valid column name. A valid column name must start with a letter, must be less than or equal to 30 characters and include only alphanumeric characters and the special characters $, _, and #. If it contains other characters, then it must be enclosed in quotation marks. It cannot be a reserved word.

• Creating a table: invalid data type

  Hello
  
  I want to create two tables, which is why the following script:
  
  create table wine cellars
  (winecellarname varchar2 (50) primary key,)
  location varchar2 (50).
  owner varchar2 (50).
  Phone varchar2 (50).
  Museum char(1),
  BLOB of logo
  );
  
  
  create table wines
  (winetype, varchar2 (50))
  winecathegory varchar2 (50).
  year number 4.
  winecellarname varchar2 (50).
  VARCHAR2 (50) of origin;
  primary key (winetype, winecathegory, year, winecellarname).
  update the foreign key (winecellarname) winecellarname references on Delete on cascade
  );
  
  But in line 13 of the script, which is the line winetype varchar2 (50), gives the text following error-> invalid data type
  
  Everyone knows that is the cause? I used Toad as a client to manage the script and Oracle 10 g as a server.
  
  Thank you. concerning

  Then, when you create tables in Oracle, referencing foreign key, you don t need to use on the update clause to maintain the reference to integrity? This is valid for MySQL Server?

  not sure that your average, but you have to update... use only on the deletion clause.

  The work is probably assigned a group of windows, probably MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_GROUP. The task will run in this window. Try these queries.

  select schedule_name
  from dba_scheduler_jobs
  where job_name = 'AUTO_SPACE_ADVISOR_JOB';
  
  select next_start_date
  from dba_scheduler_window_groups
  where window_group_name = 'MAINTENANCE_WINDOW_GROUP';  -- or the value returned by the first query if different
  

  Since it is a work of Oracle supplied, I recommend you contact Oracle support. The trace file contains other useful information?

  You cannot get the ref cursor in a table like this. Either use a PL/SQL program to extract the lines of ref cursor and display them via dbms_output.put_line (or something) or load the results into a collection and then cast the collection in a table in your select statement.

  Casting will not change the fact that you have a local collection type in a SQL statement, which is not allowed. You can create a stand-alone type with CREATE TYPE? Or use something like SYS. DBMS_DEBUG_VC2COLL that is already defined.

  You don't need a CAST explicitly in the TABLE expressions after around Oracle 8i.

• Convert or map Typedonnees decimal Transact-SQL for Oracle Number data type?

  MSSQL 2005
  Oracle 10.2 g
  
  In a MSSQL table, I have a column with the data type set on (decimal (1.0), null) with the values of line-1. (695 lines in total)
  
  In the Oracle table, the proposed mapped column is a number data type. When I import data, I received 695 errors with the message "invalid value for the field. How to properly convert or map Decimal (MSSQL) Transact-SQL for Oracle Number data type for a negative value?
  
  Thank you.

  How do you load data into Oracle? What tool or programming language you are using? Can you post something cause what you stated in your post should work, but there may be some ODBC, or other type of conversion factors to be taken into account.

• Expression-matter ORA-00932: inconsistent data types

  I'm trying to use the following condition

  Select

  case

  When

  Count (exception.exception_number) > 1

  then 0

  on the other

  ENTITY_TYPE_DEF.NAME

  end name

  With the exception of the table, exception_number has a varchar2 data type. My requirement is such that if the number of exception number is greater than 1, it should show 0 (integer) and if not then see the name column of the entity_type_def table (varchar2).

  My query fails with the following error

  ERROR on line 7:

  ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected NUMBER obtained TANK

  Please could someone suggest a workaround solution for above question.

  Hello.

  For example,.

  Select

  case

  When

  Count (exception.exception_number) > 1

  then "0"

  on the other

  ENTITY_TYPE_DEF.NAME

  end name

• ADF: ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected - got TANK

  I get this error while casting. ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected - got TANK
  I had departments such as front number... .but must be able to take over the alpha characters... so I changed my Bind Variables in my model: Array string (decimal Big)
  
  This is the error:
  
  where dept in (SELECT * FROM TABLE (CAST (: depts AS glc.))) NUMTABTYPE)))
  
  How can I solve this?... probably need to delete interpreters from here... .but how I it... any help is appreciated.
  
  I also Type:
  create or replace TYPE NUMTABTYPE in the TABLE to the number; (also I tried to change this option for create or replace TYPE NUMTABTYPE in the TABLE to the varchar2 (200);)
  
  I changed the table to a string and
  
  [oracle.jbo.domain.Number]"with java.lang.String to support also supports departments alpha characters... dept can be AB123 (string) or 3344 (number only)

  As you say your table does not number but the strings. If you must change the table in an array of strings.
