• the date conversion problem

  Hi friends,

  I have a problem with the conversion of the date in my PB.

  SELECT eff_dt, TO_CHAR (TO_DATE (eff_dt, 'Dd-mon-yy'), 'dd-mm-yyyy') DATE from une_table;

  It gives me o/p as -.

  DATE OF EFF_DT

  01.01.1950 00:00:00 01/01/2050

  as you can see here the year is wrong, while I convert the date that I use the substr() also to cut the year of first line, but it gives me the 50 i.e. onle last (YY)

  So, if someone can help me with this prob.

  If eff_dt is a column DATE, then stop calling to_date on it.

  If this is not the case, consider making it into a DATE column. If you are unable to do this, use the format mask appropriate when you call to_date

  to DD/MM/YYYY in oracle. Thank you

  All DATEs have the same format, which is nothing like "MM/DD/YYYY".  You do not convert to a given format, convert you to DATEs, like this:

  To_date (str, 'DD-MON-RR')

  If you must explicitly show a DATE d "MM/DD/YYYY" format, then you can use:

  To_char (d, "DD/MM/YYYY"

  See https://edstevensdba.wordpress.com/2011/04/07/nls_date_format/

  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.

  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).

• Problem with the date when you load the XML file into Oracle Database 10g

  Hi all
  
  I have the interface as shown in the screenshot below. In this document, among other things, I am mapping to an element XML file representing a date to an Oracle table column defined as DATE. The source and target columns are highlighted in the screenshot.
  
  ! http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1565/odiscr275.jpg!
  
  When I run the interface, I get the following error message:
  
  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException to java.sql.Date.valueOf(Date.java:103)
  
  I guess that this is the conversion of the date!
  
  I already tried to replace SRC_TRADES. DEAL_DATE with TO_DATE (SRC_TRADES. DEAL_DATE, ' DD/MM/YYYY') on the implementation tab. This feature was not recognized when I executed the interface, so it did not work! The value of date in the XML file is in the format DD/MM/YYYY .
  
  I guess that Date SQL Oracle functions do not work in the implementation tab. Could someone let me know:
  
  1. what the Date Conversion function I could use instead?
  2. where can I find a reference to the methods/functions that I use in the implementation tab (if such a reference exists)?
  
  See you soon.

  Hello.

  Try changing the area of execution at the staging area. Once you change it, write in the map box just SRC_TRADERS. DEAL_DATE. When you use TO_DATE, the source field typu should be varchar2, no date (as it is in store for your data source)

  If the column is a DATE, then it has the same format that all DATEs, which is nothing like 'DD-MON-YYYY '. Formats like which apply only to chains.
  Conversely, if it is in the format "DD-MON-YYY", then it is a string, not a DATE.

  but I want to change to DD/MM/YYYY. My query is below:

  Select to_date('fccpdate','MM/DD/YYYY')
  of cc_class_scmast_v

  To_date (x, "MM/DD/YYYY") tries to convert the string x in a DATE. Let's say it starts by taking the first 2 characters of x, for the month. The first 2 characters of 'fccpdate' are "fc", which is not a valid number (at least not in base 10), not to mention a number from 1 to 12, TO_DATE so will raise an error.

  I tried to remove the single quotes of my column and that does make a difference. Any help is appreciated.

  It's a good first step. Literals are enclosed in single quotes are not identifiers (including the column names). "fccpdate" is the literal string of 8 characters containing 'f', ' c; Another 'c', 'p' 'd', 'a', 't' and 'e'. " fccpdate (without the single quotes) can be the name of a column.

  If fccpdate is a string, as July 18, 2012', then you can convert it to a DATE using TO_DATE.

  TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
  

  If you want to display a DATE in a particular format, use

  TO_CHAR ( d
          , f
          )
  

  where d is a DATE, and f is the format string. In this case, d is perhaps the TO_DATE expression above

  TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE (fccpdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY')
          , 'MM/DD/YYYY'
          )

• Reliability of the data in the conversion to & from a Variant...

  It is possible to convert any data type to a variant, and then turn it back on.  In doing so, are there data types who will lose information during the conversion process?  If so, why?

  Yes, you can convert any type to a variable ranging and back. There is a VI called "Variant data" which will have a type as input. He continued to convert the variant the correct data. The side variant must know what type of data to expect. He can pull of the Variant. However, you can use a cluster of generic data that consists of a username and a Variant. Then you can have different types of data which can handle the side reception. It is a two-step process. One of conversion the variant of general type (data type and Variant cluster). The second would be a case statement uses the type then covert the internal variant to the specified type. This approach is used for generic messaging systems. The upper levels of the code will know what to do with the data. The lower levels are just generic data passing around.

  I'm not aware of any information that get lost during the conversion of the data to and from a variant. Of course, I not had no problem using them.

• Need help for the conversion of the Date

  Hi all

  Your expert input is much appreciated.

  Have a problem where it is my master table structure, whenever there is an update/delete/insert on the main table
  There's a trigger that insert an entry in the Audit table.
  
  SQL > cpp_Master Desc;
  Number of Ent_id
  Date of Ent_date
  
  SQL > Desc Cpp_Master_Audit
  Number of Ent_id
  Date of Ent_date,
  Insert_type varchar2 (1)
  
  The problem is that when we insert the Sub record in the table, the ent_date column appears in this way.
  
  SQL > INSERT INTO CED.cpp_Master (ENT_ID, Ent_date)
  VALUES (6030902, TO_DATE (1 JANUARY 01 00:00:00 ', ' HH24: PUT DD/MM/YYYY "));

  SQL > SELECT * FROM CED.cpp_Master;

  6030902 01/01/0001

  SQL > SELECT * FROM CDS. Cpp_Master_Audit;

  6030902 01/01/0001

  But when I update the date is coming up as below

  SQL > update ced.cpp_Master set Ent_date = to_date (' 1 March 01', ' dd-mon-YYYY "") where ent_id = '6030902';
  SQL > commit;

  Tried under updates so

  (

  Update ced.cpp_Master set Ent_date = ' March 1 01' where ent_id = '6030902';

  Update ced.cpp_Master set Ent_date = to_char (' 1 March 01', ' dd-mon-YYYY "") where ent_id = '6030902';

  )

  Whenever the output below always. (Insert has no problem, just update a problem)

  I wonder why when there is an insertion of the date value is "01/01/01" in (Cpp_Master_Audit), but when I update the date value is "01/01/2001" ".

  I need the value to insert as "01/01/01", as all that was updated in Master table (Cpp_Master)

  SQL > SELECT * FROM CED.cpp_Master;

  6030902 01/01/2001

  
  
  My request to trigger:
  
  CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER CDS. CPP_AUDT
  AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE
  ON CED.cpp_Master REFERENCING OLD AS OLD AGAIN AS NEW
  FOR EACH LINE
  DECLARE
  l_action_code VARCHAR2 (1);
  BEGIN

  IF THE INSERTION
  THEN
  l_action_code: = 'I ';
  ELSIF UPDATE

  THEN
  INSERT IN DEC. () Cpp_Master_Audit
  ENT_ID, Ent_date, Insert_type
  )
  VALUES (DECODE (: OLD.ent_id, NULL,: NEW.ent_id,: OLD.ent_id),)
  DECODE (l_action_code, 'I',: NEW.) Ent_date, 'd', NULL, 'U', DECODE (: NEW.) Ent_date,: OLD. Ent_date, NULL,: NEW. Ent_date)),
  Insert_type l_action_code);

  END IF;
  END;
  /

  You wrote that ent_date is of type DATE

  SQL > cpp_Master Desc;

  Number of Ent_id

  Date of Ent_date

  so DO NOT fill with a chain, but with a date, and you have correct data in it.

  This:

  Update ced.cpp_Master set Ent_date = 1 March 01 ' where ent_id = '6030902';

  is simply wrong that fill you your column DATE with a string and your NUMBER column with a string filter too.
  

  
  

  Use

  Update ced.cpp_Master

  Set Ent_date = TO_DATE('01-MAR-0001','DD-MON-YYYY') where ent_id = 6030902;

  and you will have no problems (as long as the NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE parameter is set correctly to support abbreviations English months)

  My question is why what is happening?
  Is it because we have two functions ROUND (NUMBER) and ROUND (DATE)?

  Hello

  Welcome to the forum!

  user650693 wrote:

  All of the built-in functions will work fine as long as use you them as directed; in particular, pass arguments that have the correct data type. If a function requires a DATE for an argument, always place a DATE, not a VARCHAR2 you hope will be be implicitly converted to DATE.

  D MY separator2 R separator1

  the separator can be any sign of punctuation (/ $ % & *, ^) sapces, tabs...

  This applies to explicitly call the functions where a format string is used, for example, TO_DATE.

  as
  Select ADD_MONTHS('21$MAY*2010',2) from DUAL;

  SELECT MONTHS_BETWEEN ('23 ^ FEB & 2010', ' 11% jan(2011') FROM DUAL;)

  the two works perfectly,

  As the respondent previous said, the two work may , depends on several factors, such as your NLS parameters. It's a very bad habit to rely on such things. The 1st argument to ADD_MONTHS and two arguments to MONTHS_BETWEEN, are supposed to be DATEs, so always call these functions with the DATEs.

  but this does not work in the ROUND functions (date) and TRUNC (date);
  SELECT ROUND('12-FEB-2010') FROM DUAL; -gives error

  It needs explicit conversion using TO_DATE();

  My question is why what is happening?
  Is it because we have two functions ROUND (NUMBER) and ROUND (DATE)?

  No, it's because there is no ROUND function (VARCHAR2).
  The use of strings which are expected of the DATEs is simply asking for trouble. Sometimes, you get what you're asking.

• Conversion of a data type to the data type Timestamp Date equivalent

  I'm trying to use the date of update the son page to track sales phase changes that occur each day associated with a campaign. Reporting requirements are to break the daily accomplishments of the users each day from the previous week. I can't find any other date field which provides information on when a sales stage has changed.
  
  I've searched high and low and ordered Mr. Lairson (sp?) book, but can't wait until I get to solve my problem.
  
  Can someone advise, very explicitly since I was a novice, on exactly how to type such a conversion?

  I don't know if I understand your query exactly, however if you are looking to convert a timestamp value (i.e. Date of change) in a short date format, then you can use: -

  CAST (timestamp AS DATE)

  for example CAST (lead. (' "Last modified" DATE)

  I hope this helps.

  Hello J,

  A number such as 66.6778888e5 can be shown as 6667778888 in a DISPLAY box or table or text REPORT or a axis of REPORT graph by using the display correct format string - in this case "d".  Where do you 6667778888 number appears like this in DIAdem, exactly?  If you want to see in a BULLETIN Board, you will need to choose the option button 'Selected channels' first in the configuration dialog box, and only then will you be able to choose a format string to display such as "d" for this column.

  Hi mfp.

  I don't know what your question is about. When I look at your code, I see a table which is an array of 2D channels where index you some lines (I have a feeling you want columns).

  Not to mention you want to get two characters in strings and which convert to digital.

  Your table is empty (please fill with the data, right-click on the table and select "Operations on the data-> default font of the current value" before posting).

  You can directly index since a table 2D in unique items by adding an entry in the column index as well as the function "array index.

  Or you could feed the column of strings in the function 'hexadecimal string number

  To_char (SYSDATE, 'MM') returns the current month (a string 2, with a '0' for most of the month).
  To_char (SYSDATE, "FMMM") returns the current month (a string 1 or 2, without a '0').

  Thanks for posting that, but no instructions INSERT works; they need the keyword VALUES.
  Always test (and, if necessary, correct) CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements before committing.

  Is it really wise to save only the month? Most often, people store all birth_date in a DATE column. It is easy to use EXTRACT or TO_CHAR to get the month of a DATE.
  Because you really want to use a column of VARCHAR type, making 10 characters long guest just wrong. Why not make 2 characters? In addition, add a CHECK constraint to make sure invalid month, such as '41' above, does.

• Download data - problems with the conversion of the date

  Hello
  
  I have a picture that I downloaded from a database of oracle using SAS. It has a column with dates in the following format: 10/31/2012 11:00
  
  When I download the data (via workshop SQL-> utilities-> data workshop-> load data) by categorizing my dates as varchar2, everything works fine... but fails when I choose my type in the Date column.
  
  Please advice how to fix this
  
  Thank you

  K I import my data with other tools. Looking at the workshop of data utility, no doubt you would put MM/DD/YYYY HH: mi: SS AM in the 'Format' field for this column.

• Date of issue - conversion to date and the date of conversion in months

  I have some data in a text file for SQLLDR from a SQL SERVER.
  
  In date columns are YYYY-MM-DD format eg-2011-01-03 00:00:00
  
  but in oracle, we use DD-MM-RRRR.
  
  Don't know why the SD and MM are get interchanged. Help, please.
  
  It's my for sqlldr control file:
  

  LOAD DATA 
  INFILE 'F:\NV\Permits\SQLLDR\permits.txt'
  REPLACE 
  INTO TABLE lot.p_permit
  FIELDS Terminated by "~" TRAILING NULLCOLS
  (
   CP_PermitID  "TRIM (:CP_PermitID)",
   CP_SubmitDate "to_date(to_date(substr(:CP_SubmitDate, 1,19),'RRRR-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'),'DD-MM-RRRR')",
   CP_IssueDate "to_date(to_date(substr(:CP_IssueDate, 1,19),'RRRR-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'),'DD-MM-RRRR')")

  You convert date to date. First TO_DATE

  TO_DATE (substr (: CP_IssueDate, 1.19), "DD-MM-RRRR HH24:MI:SS")

  Converts correctly 19 characters of the CP_IssueDate string to date. Now, look at what is happening with the other. To_date first argument is string. Since to_date (substr (: CP_IssueDate, 1.19), "DD-MM-RRRR HH24:MI:SS") are dates:

  TO_DATE (to_date (substr (: CP_SubmitDate, 1.19), 'DD-MM-RRRR HH24:MI:SS'), "DD-MM-RRRR")

  implicitly converts the to_date (substr (: CP_IssueDate, 1.19), "DD-MM-RRRR HH24:MI:SS") to a string using default date format, then converts it back to the date using the format "DD-MM-RRRR. Of course if the default date format is not "DD-MM-RRRR" you can either get an incorrect date or a mistake. In any case, use:

  LOAD DATA
  INFILE 'F:\NV\Permits\SQLLDR\permits.txt'
  REPLACE
  INTO TABLE lot.p_permit
  FIELDS Terminated by "~" TRAILING NULLCOLS
  (
   CP_PermitID  "TRIM (:CP_PermitID)",
   CP_SubmitDate "to_date(substr(:CP_SubmitDate,1,10),'YYYY-MM-DD')",
   CP_IssueDate "to_date(substr(:CP_IssueDate,1,10),'YYYY-MM-DD')"
  )
