• Find the difference between two date and time

  Hi friends,
  
  I wanted to find the difference between two date and time, but my qury is slightest error "invalid number."
  
  

  select sql_step_num,proc_name,run_seqno,start_date,end_date,(to_char(start_date,'HH24-MI-SS') - to_char(end_date,'HH24-MI-SS') ) as ed  
  from eval.EVAL_RUNTIME_DETAILS
  where trunc(start_date) = trunc(sysdate) 
  order by sql_step_num;

  You try to get the feel between two char strings.
  And more difference between two dates gives a NUMBER of days.
  Try this:

  select sql_step_num,proc_name,run_seqno,start_date,end_date,numtodsinterval(end_date-start_date,'DAY') as ed
  from eval.EVAL_RUNTIME_DETAILS
  where trunc(start_date) = trunc(sysdate)

• What is the difference between a table and a subform?

  What is the difference between a table and a subform in LC forms? Please post your answers about the merits and demerits of using subforms instead of tables.

  Hello

  a table is simply a set of subforms with a particular role.

  It is easier to handle the tables if they must be dynamic (add or remove lines, show or hide lines when page breaks appear etc..).

  And Designers UI has some dialogue prepared in the object palette to simplify the settings of the tables.

  For subforms, dialog boxes are more frequent, so you have yourself a little more script.

  But at least you can do everything with subforms as you can do with tables.

  The only one who is not very good with tables we work when you wrap arrays in other tables.

• How to find the difference between two dates in the presentation layer

  Hi Navin,

  TIMESTAMPDIFF function first determines the timestamp component that corresponds to the specified interval setting. For example, SQL_TSI_DAY corresponds to the day component and SQL_TSI_MONTH corresponds to the component "month".

  If you want to display the difference between two dates in days using SQL_TSI_DAY, unlike butterflies SQL_TSI_MONTH and so on...

  hope you understand...

  Award points and to close the debate, if your question is answered.

• Difference between two tables (ORA-01722)

  I am trying to get the difference of two tables on two databases.
  
  Walker I run the script below, it gives me a result that is not accurate.
  

  Select name, creation_time of v$datafile@REMOTE_database.com
  2 LESS THAN
  3 select name, creation_time from v$ datafile;
  
  I get 14 ranks of foregoing.

  However, when I run this script, I get an accurate count of the difference. How can I list the exact number instead of only to count the difference? Want lists all five name missing on table 2.
  

  SQL > SELECT a.cnt - b.cnt

  > count 2 (name) select cnt (of v$datafile@REMOTE_database.com) a, b

• Dynamic action - Get the difference between two dates + times

  I have problems a little dynamic to work action. I'm trying to get the time between two dates with the time difference.
  
  Here is what I got (this is apex 4.0):
  
  Two date pickers + two numbers fields (date/start/end times)
  
  I created a dynamic action on the page who fires on the point lose focus (above points).
  
  The real action for the DA is the body of the PL/SQL function:

  declare
    end_date DATE;
    start_date DATE;
  Begin
    start_date := to_char(:P1_START_DATE || ' ' || :P1_START_TIME, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH:MIAM');
    end_date := to_char(:P1_END_DATE || ' ' || :P1_END_TIME, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH:MIAM');
    :P1_HOURS := end_date-start_date;
  End;

  When I change the values on the page, I get the following error:
  
  AJAX call back Server error ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character number conversion error to set the value.
  
  I'm guessing that there is a problem with the date formatting, but I can't make it work. Thanks in advance!

  Hi djston,

  because you chose the dynamic action of 'Set value' with the "Body of the PL/SQL function" type you need to return the value. Try the following code

  declare
    end_date DATE;
    start_date DATE;
  Begin
    start_date := to_date(:P1_START_DATE || ' ' || :P1_START_TIME, 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:MIAM');
    end_date := to_date(:P1_END_DATE || ' ' || :P1_END_TIME, 'DD-MM-YYYY HH:MIAM');
    RETURN (end_date-start_date)*24;
  End;
  

  and P1_REQUESTED_HOURS like 'item affected. "

• How can I compare the differences between two files After Effects?

  I have a major problem.  I was working on special effects for a film.  In After Effects, when I change siggificant, I often have to register under and create a new name so I can go back to the old work if necessary.  It comes in a case, I have come back from earlier works.  If I use these two files After Effects allows you to create multiple clips of effects.  And I do not remember just where you look at it, it is better.  Does anyone know a good way to compare the differences between the files?

  One thing to keep this conversation on the right way: I know that I did a stupid thing.  I've never done this before so can we please not spend a lot of time on how to avoid this problem and stick to how we solve this problem?

  If you encounter difficulties to identify differences in the old and new versions, you can use this procedure:

  To avoid confusion, I'll call your former company and your most recent compositions CompB comps.

  CompA drag "New Comp" icon in the project window.  This will create a new temporary layout that contains the nested CompA.

  Drag in your new COMP CompB temporary ensure it aligns image for image with CompA.

  Place the top layer (CompB) difference.

  Now, when you play through the comp, you'll see differences in color at a time where the comparison and CompB are not identical.

• Formula of FormCalc to make the difference between two time fields if they are populated - help please

  
  Hello

  I have a laptop (TotalTime1) which refers to two other cells in the updated hour-shaped (Start1 and 1 to finish).

  The formula below is intended to make the difference between the time of departure and of arrival if they are populated.

  I had to work unconditionally HasValue, but the formula was calculated when there is no value in the Start1 and Finish1 (due to the time format).

  This is the code I have, it is said that there is an error of almost the last line; I'm sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong way, I haven't posted on this forum before but this is:

  If (HasValue (Finish1) and HasValue (Start1)) then if (Time2Num (Start1.formattedValue, "HH: mm") < Time2Num (Finish1.formattedValue, "Hh: mm")) then Abs (Time2Num (Start1.formattedValue, "HH: mm")-Time2Num (Finish1.formattedValue, "HH: mm")) / (60 * 60 * 1000) another 24 - ABS (Time2Num (Finish1.formattedValue, "HH: mm")-Time2Num (Start1.formattedValue, "HH: mm")) / (60 * 60 * 1000) endif

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Cordially Fetachini

  you need an another endif at the end (you have nested statement and only 1 endif)

  Hello

  If I unederstand the problem correctly, that's what you want:

  WITH       got_extrema     AS
  (
       SELECT       tr_id
       ,       CAST (MIN (create_time) AS DATE)     AS start_date
       ,       CAST (MAX (create_time) AS DATE)     AS end_date
       FROM       test
       GROUP BY  tr_id
  )
  SELECT       tr_id
  ,       start_date, end_date          -- If wanted
  ,       24 * ( ( ( TRUNC (end_date,   'IW')          -- Count -1 day for every full week
                      - TRUNC (start_date, 'IW')
               )
             / -7
                )
              + LEAST ( end_date               -- If end_date is a Sunday
                          , TRUNC (end_date, 'IW') + 6     -- consider it 00:00:00 on Sunday
                   )
              - CASE
                        WHEN  start_date >= TRUNC (start_date, 'IW') + 6     -- If start_date is a Sunday
                 THEN  TRUNC (start_date, 'IW') + 6               -- consider it 00:00:00 Sunday
                 ELSE  start_date
                    END
              )     AS total_hours
  FROM      got_extrema
  ;
  

  I guess that you don't need to worry about fractions of a second. As you did in the code you have posted, I am to convert the TIMESTAMP to date values, because of DATE arithmetic and functions are so much better than what is available for timestamps.

  Basically, it's just to find the number of days between start_date and end_date and multiplying by 24, with these twists:
  (a) 1 day is deducted for each week between start_date and end_date
  (b) if End_date is a Sunday, none of the end_date himself hours are counted
  (c) If start_date is a Sunday, then all the start_date himself hours are counted. Why these hours should be counted? Because 1 day is already being deducted for the week which includes start_date, which contains only this Sunday.

  TRUNC (dt, 'IW') is the beginning of the ISO week containing dt; in other words, 00:00:00 the or before the dt last Monday. This is not the NLS parameters.

  Of course, I can't test without some sample data and the exact results you want from these data. You may need a little something more If start_date and end_date are both on the same Sunday.
  Whenever you have a problem, please post a small example of data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) of all of the tables involved.
  Also post the results you want from this data, as well as an explanation of how you get these results from these data, with specific examples.
  Always tell what version of Oracle you are using.

• How to tell the difference between two dates

  Hello:
  
  I have a question on how to get the difference in quantities for two dates in the replies and dashboard.
  
  This is the scenario. I have two guests date and three columns. The first column must be the sum of the amounts for the first quick date. The second column should be the sum of the amounts for the second fast date. And the third column is the difference between the first two columns.
  
  Basically, I'm trying to do something similar to a function of sum of two lines but trying to get the difference between the two rows. Any help to solve this problem would be appreciated.

  Use the COLUMN FILTERS level...

  the first column with the first variable of date quick presentation of the filter

  Similarly, the second column in the second variable of quick overview of date filter

• By selecting the difference between two images

  Hello

  I have two photos exactly the same thing that I took using a tripod, studio lighting and general conditions. However, in the second photo, I inserted a subject - in this case a sculpture complex. Photoshop can merge these two images together AND choose so the difference between the two images - in this case the sculpture complex?
  
  

  Basically, I need to select the sculpture and do not want to spend time manually selecting due to its complexity. I need to separate the background and the sculpture for editing on their own layers.

• How to calculate the difference between two times by the NUMBERS

  I'm so bothered by the fact that I can't understand that.

  Cell B2 - 08:00

  Cell C2 - 10:50

  (How can cell D2 - I get this cell to calculate the difference and say 02:50?)

  I know it's probably one of the most basic operations, but for the life of me I can't understand it. The cells B2 and C2 are formatted for a 24-hour clock. But if I tell the system to just subtract the two, I get "0,118. Everything I find on the forum search goes beyond what I need. Can someone help me?

  Thank you

  Hi sapirs,

  Departure and arrival of the cells are in Date and time with Date format: no and time: 24-hour clock.

  

  Formula in D2 (fill down)

  = C2−B2

  

  The results become a duration format, but under automatic (numbers automatically worth this format)

  

  If you wish, you can change the cells of lasting results.

  What Data Format have your result cells?

  Kind regards

  Ian.
