You can;  Simply enclose it quotation marks name whenever you use it.

For example:

CREATE TABLE '3-26.
(
'name 1' VARCHAR2 (10)
);

INSERT INTO '3-26' ('1 St Name') VALUES ('FUBAR');

SELECT '1 name '.
"3-26;

Remember, what inside quotes is case-sensitive, so you can't refer to that column as "1st NAME.

Using quotation marks (and capitalizing exactly as expected) is such a pain that most people don't bother.

  • How can I write in a table cell (row, column appear) in a databae?

    How can I write in a table cell (row, column appear) in a database using LabVIEW Database Toolkit? I use Ms Access. Suppose I have three columns in a table, I write 1 row of the 1st column, then 1st rank of the 3rd column. The problem I have is after writing the 1st column of 1st row, the reference goes to the second row, and if I write in the 3rd column, he goes to the 2nd row 3rd column. Any suggestion?

    When you perform a SQL INSERT command, you create a new line. If you want to change an existing line, you must use the UPDATE command (i.e. UPDATE tablename SET column = value WHERE some_column = some_value). The some_column could be the unique ID of each line, date and time, etc.

    I don't know what is the function to use in the Toolbox to execute a SQL command, since I do not use the Toolbox. Also, I don't understand why you don't do a single INSERT. It would be much faster.

    Hello

    You have discovered a problem with Windows 7. To resolve this problem, I recommend a program called FileMenu Tools. You can download the portable freeware from here: http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/System/System-Enhancements/FileMenu-Tools-Portable.shtml .

    After having downloaded and installed the program, you will notice that, by default, each option is checked. I would be much more selective on this subject, otherwise your context menu will be a full page long! When the main window opens, you will see a list on the right side of all the elements that can be added to the context menu. Start weeding through the list and every one to take away, you don't need the United Nationsby checking the box.

    Once you have completed your selection (de-selections) make sure that you click the green check mark in the row of icons at the top of the left window of the interface to 'Apply' of your choice. The program can do much more, but that answers your specific question. I am told that the program has a good help file, so try here if you are interested.

    Let me know if this solves the problem for you.

    Kind regards

  • Why can't I create a rectangle with width and height reagent?

    I created a rectangle with no fill. I gave it a shadow effect. But I can't not only resize with width "sensitive." Why can't resize it with 'width and height sensitive "? It seems that I should be able to do, but I can't (or maybe I'm missing something). Thank you, this should be a simple question to answer, or to present it as an improvement of the obvious feature in the next update.

    An image can be sensitive in width and height !

    So what you could do is to place an image, assign reactive width and height, then double-click it and delete the content, so you no longer have the frame empty to the left, but sensitive to the width and height :-)

  • Why can't I create forms?

    When I try to make a form using pen or rectangle it's just a mask help!

    This is because you have a selected layer when you try to draw with the pen tool. Make sure that all the layers are deselected first.

    In addition, note two icons to the right of your toolbar at the top... Even if you have selected a shape layer, you can choose to create a mask that you shoot or create another.

  • How to create the Table using the column Drag and Drop feature

    Hello:
    I'm new to Data Modeler tool Oracle SQL dev and would like to know if there is a way to create a new table by reusing existing columns or groups of columns. The idea is to maintain consistency and save time of table design. If the columns created previously can be reused and require, drag and drop column in the right pane, then only new columns must be created manually.

    Any thoughts on this will be appreciated.

    Thank you!

    Yes - just change the name of the model table in the script (t_name = "table_template") then save this new transformation for later use.

    I don't know how to apply only some of the tables. Seems like something you could do to a secondary view level?

    Perhaps someone else on the forum can advise how to change the script to work on a subview only instead of the whole model.

  • Why can't I create a new epub file in a model of epub on ibooks author?

    I try to import an epub I created on another platform in iBooks author in order to edit it there and re-export as an epub. When you choose file > new epub file and I choose a model, epub models are not available. No idea why? No work around? I don't see why I can't create an epub from an any epub.

    I don't think that iBA has the functionality you need.  You start with a model of epub and add things to it.

    You must use another application to edit your original epub.  Apple won't do anything for this AFAIK.

  • Why can't I create a new folder in Windows 7?

    No matter what I do, "New folder" does not work.  Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit.  It has worked before, now it doesn't.  There is a solution, but it's a lot of time.  Help, please.  Thanx

    I found this somewhere, can't remember where exactly, but it works if you try to create a new folder in the C: drive.

    Try this. Launch the command prompt and in the window, type cd... (including colon) and press ENTER. Type cd... and press ENTER again. Repeat until you get C:\ >

    Now, type mkdir  folder_name, where folder_name is replaced by the name you choose for your new folder. Press ENTER. Remove and check.

  • Why can't I create a folder on the desktop?

    When I right click on the open space to create a folder isn't there, or am I doing wrong?

    My office is really get crowded because I am not able to create all the folders

    The expired key may point to microsoft office / outlook and not windows, it's me.

    If you click on the Start button and then click on the list of the computer, and then look at the top left, you should see the properties of the system, at the bottom of this page, your product key should be listed for windows, not office well.

    As long as you can now make a folder and move your files now :)

    The right click menu can be altered and other options added as brüse and ronnie described, I do not know how to do this personally, about the options in this area are concerned.

    If the entry that you have given in how to add options to the menu of these two did not work, I tend to think it's a restriction of user account or a standard account with administrator rights.

    Or you do not have administrator account.
