• How do I search for special characters in the Explorer?

  I have a collection of 1000 + files in an FTP folder. The problem is that about 50 of them contain & symbols in their file names. I need to find and delete all the files containing the symbol '& '. I thought it should be easy enough to search for the symbol '&' File Explorer. However, in doing so, nothing happens. It returns all files. Is it possible to search for special characters like '&' in the file Explorer?

  Type filename: * & in the Explorer search field, it finds all files where appears the & character in the file or file name extension.

  It helps if you post a copy and paste of effective enforcement of the full code, including the results.  You posted an index of context with the query with catsearch, which requires a ctxcat index.  You must be a context clue that you did not post and did not add your lexer to.  The following table shows it returns all the lines of 3 as planned using either a with catsearch ctxcat index or a context index with contains, as long that you include the lexer in your create index.  You must also be sure that the index is created, or synchronized after inserting or updating data.

• Oracle Text, text search with special characters

  Hi all
  
  My s/n: 11.2.03
  
  I have ctxsys.context of index on a column.
  
  "Now, I would like to find a text like ' 891-000-33-01" (without ").
  
  The problem is that I can't find row propely when I write *'891 000 33 01'*,.
  and no result of lines when writing normal *'' 891-000-33-01 *.
  
  How to build an index, or what I do the text you enter in text typed with special characters, looked for and did not like google search (* when you write in google "cat - animal", serach engine returns the result of no animal cat *)
  
  Concerning

  The character 'less' is a special character and must be escaped if you don't want to do a subtraction.

  You can use "891\-000\-33\-01" or "{891-000-33-01}.

  Note that by default "-" is a newline character, so each set of numbers will be indexed as a separate token. If you want the "-" to be indexed as part of a single token, you will need to set it as a character PRINTJOINS. You will still need to escape in the query.

• GREP search for all characters

  (Indesign CS6, Windows 7)

  For a book that I'm layout, the author marked text that should be indented like this:

  [indent]

  < paragraph >

  < paragraph >

  ...

  [indent]

  (Of course, in an ideal world, the Publisher would have charged the author simply use a word for this function.)

  I made a for the text indented paragraph style. I wanted to replace it in one shot, GREP search:

  (\[indent\]) ([.| \s|\r]+) (\[/indent\]) the middle part meaning one or more (+) of any character (.) or space or paragraph return. Replace it with:

  $2 and the paragraph style (getting rid of the markers at the same time).

  Nothing has been found. I changed it to (\[indent\])([\w|\s|\r]+) (without the end marker [indent], to see what would happen) and now he found something - but stop at the first mark of punctuation (only reaching no not the end marker). So I tried to fill in punctuation: (\[indent\)] ([\w|\.|-, |: | \s|\r]+]) and each time more was found (by the way,------. here means a complete stop). If it works more or less.

  The problem is, is a technical manual and most equations etc are in the text that should be indented, so there are a lot of characters who are neither letter or number. And of course you can not call it a clean solution.

  It's the kind of string search and replace I would also use on many other projects. Does anyone know a better solution? Now, 'any character' doesn't seem to work, there at - it a code for "any character being not not a letter or number? Thanks in advance.

  Try (? s)(\[indent\]\r?) (.+?) (\[/indent\]\r?)

  The (? s) runs on single line mode so it can be found through several paragraphs and the (. +?) is the shortes match between the tags. I've included returns after the tags, if there has, based on your example that the tags are separate paragraphs. If they are at the end of the paragraph that you want to keep, remove the \r? to avoid losing the paragraph breaks.

• SQL to search for GENERIC characters

  ITS WORKING PERFECTLY BUT IT MUST HAVE A VALUE
  WHAT I WANT TO IS WHAT HAPPENS IF THE USER ENTERED NO VALUE
  IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY RUN THE SEARCH WITH GENERIC CHARACTERS
  
  IS THERE A POSSIBLE WAY?
  
  GOOD DAY MASTER THANK YOU...

  Hi Mike,.

  Here it is... You can use the NVL() to achieve this goal for the treatment of NULL values.

  If the entry is not specified, you can assign values by default if the entry by the user truncates to null...

  SELECT *.
  OF diesel_detail
  WHERE TO_CHAR (date_po, 'DD-MON-YYYY') BETWEEN NVL (: p1_from,)
  To_char (date_po,
  "MON-DD-YYYY".
  )
  )
  AND NVL (: p1_to,)
  To_char (date_po,
  "MON-DD-YYYY".
  )
  )
  AND plate_no = NVL (: p1_plate_no, plate_no)
  OR driver-name = NVL (: p1_driver_name, driver-name);

  In above query, if the entry for: p1_from is not specified,
  By default, the entry is TO_CHAR (date_po, 'DD-MON-YYYY') and the query is executed.

  Thank you

• tests for special characters? (Winner JS CS5.5)

  Is there some sort of boolean, or function to tell if a character is a member of the Group of SpecialCharacters?

  I need to test if a range of text ends with a carriage return & had used a loop that proved the last character of the items found with myFoundItems [i] .characters [-1].contents.charCodeAt () == 13, which was fine except when the last character is be a special character. Because special characters not properly return a character code, script errors on. I have seen useful messages on filtering & translation of the characters special unicode, but nothing on a simple test.

  Maybe I'm still a rube rather miss a reference of Jongware... my skills are such that it seems that I would need to identify and test all possibilities (ugh!). Looks like he'd come enough that someone would have a practical function laying around...

  Thanks for any wisdom on this point.

  Hello

  1. to check if the myChar.contents is an element of SpecialCharacters , I think that you can just use the test

  ('object' is typeof myChar.contents)

  Since then in other cases typeof returns "string" (assuming that myChar is a valid instance of the character ).

  2. in any case, you can safely and always convert a single character (or any text) to a pure string JS help

  myChar.texts [0] .silence

  This tip prevents the content to return an item of SpecialCharacters property even if myChar is a 'special character '.

• Data type for special characters

  Hi all

  I am working in Oracle 11 g r2 EE and Linux operating system. We need to insert special characters in table as! @# $.

  What type of data we use for the column.  I used varchar2 (100). .as data type... is this good or any other data type better we have for the storage of special characters.

  In the conv_id column we want to insert special characters.

  ! @$# are not more special than to abcd

  VARCHAR2 is fine

• Bug in APEX_UTIL. DOWNLOAD_PRINT_DOCUMENT for special characters?

  Hello
  I use APEX_UTIL. DOWNLOAD_PRINT_DOCUMENT to download the reports of BI-Publisher. But with special characters and only if the file name is long, the name of the file is in Firefox 10.0.2 not correct. In IE9 its works well. I don't know if this is just a problem of browser or with APEX.
  
  Here is the code:

  declare
      v_filename varchar2(1000);
   
  begin
      v_filename := 'Umlaut ü 123456789012345678901234567890123';
  
      APEX_UTIL.DOWNLOAD_PRINT_DOCUMENT (p_file_name => v_filename,
                                         p_content_disposition => 'attachment',
                                         p_application_id      => :APP_ID,
                                         p_report_query_name   => 'Checkliste',
                                         p_report_layout_name  => 'Checkliste',
                                         p_report_layout_type  => 'rtf',
                                         p_document_format     => 'pdf');
  end;

  With

  Umlaut ü 123456789012345678901234567890123

  his work and I get a file named "umlaut u 123456789012345678901234567890123.pdf.
  But with

  Umlaut ü 1234567890123456789012345678901234

  (one character longer) his does not work and I get a file named "= _utf-8_B_VW1sYXV0IMO8IDEyMzQ1Njc4OTAxMjM0NTY3ODkwMTIzNDU2Nzg5MDEyMzQucGRm.
  
  If I change the EU u I have no problem, even with much longer file names.
  
  Very strange, isn't?
  
  Any ideas for that?
  
  Kind Regadrs,
  Mark

  Hi Mark,

  I was able to reproduce your problem in Firefox, very strange indeed. And it works fine in IE and Chrome. Seems so very likely browser related. Don't know what to do about it, being German myself, I test with umlauts in general, but have not seen this before. I'll keep digging. Regarding your second question, which is done by the engine. I looked at the source code and found that we cut everything after the first period '. ', it is done because according to the type of document requested, APEX adds automatically appropriate file extension. So, I recommend to avoid the use of periods and also do not include a file extension in your file name.

  Kind regards

• Search for wildcard characters

  Hello
  
  Can we use the wildcard search in Berkeley Java Edition. The joker that interests me is to search a text field that begin with the specific prefix. For example, in SQL query can find all text that start with the prefix "XML", by specifying the lookup key to be "XML %". Can it be done in Berkeley I if I use a Direct persistence layer?
  Thank you

  Samir,

  If you search the forum for 'DPL query', you will find the wire this query is possible using DPL? which is the same kind of question. In particular, if you read the white paper recommended (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/pdf/performing%20queries%20in%20oracle%20berkeley%20db%20java%20edition.pdf) you can see an example of the query, that you ask the subject.
