Data type difference of char and varchar will affect the searching result?

Hi,
My issue is tht i have created an item in db as char(20) while creating EO for tht particular table, data type for tht item attribute is by default coming as string. wen i search from table based on tht item, no rows are returned.So can anyone help me to solve this?
Thanks
Harsha

Hi,
My requirement is having a page with search region and result region. Search region shud be done programmatically. In the search region im having a lov item, radion group item, date and poplist. poplist is having, for eg., list of countries which is fetched from lookupcode. i have to buttons "go" and "clear". wen i select any of the items and click go btn results shud be displayed in a multiselect table which is updatable. Since im using updatable table im using EO which is linked to tht search region. So my issue is tht wen i select a value from poplist and click "go" btn no rows are returned, even if rows based on tht selected values are present in the table. Wht i did is tht wen i click go btn, im taking the value from tht poplist im callin VOImpl to implement the search. The value which i fetched from the poplist is available in tht method to search also. Also when i activated tht console o/p it is showing the query as country_id = :1. But it is not selecting any rows. I think im clear now, like y EO is used and all. Please help me.
Thanks
Harsha.

  • Difference between char and varchar, also the difference between varchar2

    Hi,
    Can anyone explain me the difference between char and varchar, and also the difference between varchar and varchar2...

    Varchar2 is variable width character data type, so if you define column with width 20 and insert only one character to tis column only, one character will be stored in database. Char is not variable width so when you define column with width 20 and insert one character to this column it will be right padded with 19 spaces to desired length, so you will store 20 characters in the dattabase (follow the example 1). Varchar data type from Oracle 9i is automaticlly promoted to varchar2 (follow example 2)
    Example 1:
    SQL> create table tchar(text1 char(10), text2 varchar2(10))
    2 /
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into tchar values('krystian','krystian')
    2 /
    1 row created.
    SQL> select text1, length(text1), text2, length(text2)
    2 from tchar
    3 /
    TEXT1 LENGTH(TEXT1) TEXT2 LENGTH(TEXT2)
    krystian 10 krystian 8
    Example 2:
    create table tvarchar(text varchar(10))
    SQL> select table_name,column_name,data_type
    2 from user_tab_columns
    3 where table_name = 'TVARCHAR'
    4 /
    TABLE_NAME COLUMN_NAME DATA_TYPE
    TVARCHAR TEXT VARCHAR2

  • Joining table using CHAR and VARCHAR data type as indicator

    Hi All,
    I would like to join 3 tables together but I'm unable to get a perfect concordance (using =) between CHAR and VARCHAR data type.
    Does a command exist to get impartially all data treated as CHAR or VARCHAR ?
    Thanks in advance for your help !

    You want the database to perform with such a crappy database design? Good luck with that.. Instead, you need to look at why you are NOT using surrogate integer based keys for your data tables..

  • Char and varchar  performance issues

    I am creating a child table with varchar2(4) column which takes the value from parent table which has char(4) column.
    pls give ur suggestion that child table also should have char(4) as like parent table or having varchar2(4) is good one.? which one gives better peformance?

    Whats the difference between CHAR and VARCHAR2 data type?
    CHAR is a fixed length data type and VARCHAR2 is a variable length. What does that mean? Lets say you have a CHAR(4) and VARCHAR2(4) column. You are storing the word 'AA' in both. Oracle will allocate 4 byte of space for CHAR column and just 2 byte of space to VARCHAR2 column. i.e. as i already said CHAR is a fixed length string. So the 'AA' is actually stored as 'AA ' (AA<two blank spaces>).
    So the next question is which of the two is better? You cant compare them, they are just two different tools provided by oracle. Use which is best suited for you.

  • Difference between CHAR and VARCHAR2 datatype

    Difference between CHAR and VARCHAR2 datatype
    CHAR datatype
    If you have an employee name column with size 10; ename CHAR(10) and If a column value 'JOHN' is inserted, 6 empty spaces will be inserted to the right of the value. If this was a VARCHAR column; ename VARCHAR2(10). How would it handle the column value 'JOHN' ?

    The CHAR datatype stores fixed-length character strings, and Oracle compares CHAR values using blank-padded comparison semantics.
    Where as the VARCHAR2 datatype stores variable-length character strings, and Oracle compares VARCHAR2 values using nonpadded comparison semantics.
    This is important when comparing or joining on the columns having these datatypes;

  • I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.

    I am fed up with Spring and Apple passing me off to one another and neither will fix the problem. I am unable to receive a connection on my phone.
    The internet goes out and I have to reset network setting each and every time. This is only a temporary solution which by the time I release the line with Spring or leave the apple store the issue is back. Sprint indicates that it is a know issue with the Iphone 5 and apple says it is a network issue as Sprint's network is not up to par with the Iphone and can not meet the expectations on the Iphone 5.
    I have attached a few picture, as you can see it clearly says I have 5 bars and 3g available but I have no connections what so ever.
    This issue affects all data and so I can not send or receive picture messages, use apps, or access the internet. The data goes in and out intermittently and it seems the phone chooses what I can and can't do.
    For example I can watch Youtube or Vevo videos but I can not access Facebook or Instagram.
    Is anyone else having this issue?
    I will soon loose my patience....
    I have reset my phone three time and have reset network and other setting mutltiple times.

    There are so many things wrong with this VI, I'm not even sure where to start.
    Hard-coding paths that point to your user folder on the block diagram. What if somebody else tries to run it? They'll get an error. What if somebody tries to run this on Windows 7? They'll get an error. What if somebody tries to run this on a Mac or Linux? They'll get an error.
    Not using Read From Spreadsheet File.
    Use of local variables to populate an array.
    Cannot insert values into an empty array.
    What if there's a line missing from the text file? Now your data will not line up. Your case structure does handle this.
    Also, how does this answer the poster's question?

  • I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well.

    I have an iphone 4s that is having display issues. If I turn the phone on, it vibrates to acknowledge it successfully turned on but the screen stays solid black. I can plug the phone into my computer and itunes will recognize the phone as well. However, itunes can not do anything with the phone because the phone is locked and I can not unlock the phone because the screen is black.
    >CURVEBALL!!!<
    The screen does work though! Through trial and error along side a little troubleshooting, I was able to figure out that the screen will cut on after the phone dies completely. The phone has to die completely with no battery power left. Then if I plug the phone into a charge and wait a while for it to charge, the phone will turn on like nothing was ever even wrong with it. I charge the phone up to like 30% and turn it off then bam the phone turns on but the screen is solid black again.
    I am currently in the process of waiting for the phone to die and when I turn the phone back on I am going to completely remove the auto-lock and lock code off of the phone for the time being.
    Any other suggestions? Please help!

    Sounds like the device was dropped at some point and damaged as a result.
    Take it to Apple for evaluation and a replacement.

  • Nice to see 13" retina but it has only Intel HD Graphics 4000 and does not have NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory card. How it will affect the speed, performance and other things compared to 15" retina where NVIDIA GeForce card is available.

    The 15" Retina's will have better performance than any 13" Retina. Not only do the 15" machines have dedicated GPU's, but they also have quad-core processors, whereas the 13" Retina's only have dual-core processors.

  • My iphone 4s wont switch on or reset. i spoke to apple earier and they will replace the phone under warranty. i didnt back up my phone on itunes or icloud. as the phone will not switch on i am unable to do this now. any ideas how i can get these off?

    My iphone 4s will not switch on. Supposidly it has been "charging" all day and stll it does not have enough life to switch on. Rang Apple this morning and they will replace the phone under warrenty free of charge. Only problem is with this being my first Apple product i didnt realise my phone did not automatically back up on itunes or icloud as i had to set this up.
    Now i am trying desperately to get my phone to switch on so that i can save all of the baby pictures of my 7 month old son and its not working. i have tried to reset the phone but it does nothing!!
    Can anyone PLEASE help as i am very upset and do not want to lose these precious memories?

    You cannot get Applecare plus now.
    It is unlikely that they will replace as it is damaged.  The only way to find out is to make an appointment at the genius and and see what they say.
