Cannot insert value with : into BLOB field

I am using Oracle 10g Express Edition.
Attempting to run this insert from the SQL Commands page:
INSERT INTO table1 (col1, col2)
VALUES ('one', '\"2.001:2372.002:002.005:Y2.018:G')
Table1 info:
col1 = VARCHAR2(25)
col2 = BLOB
After I click Run an Enter Tab Variables appears?
Is it possible to insert the value straight into col2 without entering bind variables?

Cannot insert Chinese character into nvarchar2 field

I have tested in two environments:
1. Database Character Set: ZHS16CGB231280
National Character Set: AL16UTF8
If the field type of datatable is varchar2 or nvarchar2, the provider can read and write Chinese correctly.
2. Database Character Set:WE8MSWIN1252
National Character Set: AL16UTF8
The provider can not read and write Chinese correctly even the field type of datatable is nvarchar2
I find that for the second one, both MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle and Oracle Managed Data Provider cannot read and write NCHAR or NVARCHAR2 fields. The data inserted into these fields become question marks.
Even if I changed the NLS_LANG registry to SIMPLIFIED CHINESE_CHINA.ZHS16CGB231280, the result is the same.
For the second situation, only after I change the Database Character Set to ZHS16CGB231280 with ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET statement, can I insert Chinese correctly.
Does any know why I cannot insert Chinese characters into Unicode fields when the Database Character Set is WE8MSWIN1252? Thanks.
Regards,
Jason

Hi Jason,
First of all, I am not familiar with MS .NET Managed Provider for Oracle or Oracle Managed Data Provider.
How did you insert these Simplified Chinese characters into the NVARCHAR2 column ? Are they hardcoded as string literals as part of the SQL INSERT statement ? If so, this could be because, all SQL statements are converted into the database character set before they are parsed by the SQL engine; hence these Chinese characters would be lost if your db character set was WE8MSWIN1252 but not when it was ZHS16CGB231280.
Two workarounds, both involved the removal of hardcoding chinese characters.
1. Rewrite your string literal using the SQL function UNISTR().
2. Use bind variables instead of text literals in the SQL.
Thanks

Outlook 2013: Cannot insert any attachments into calendar events & tasks

Hi,
I encountered a seemingly ridiculous problem:
I cannot insert any attachments into calendar events & tasks in
Outlook 2013 on a Win 8.1 machine. Outlook simply ignores CTRL-V paste actions with files and also all drag&drop actions with files. Does anyone have a solution or similar problems?
Outlook 2013 runs using an exchange server account (Outlook.com / Office 365) on the machine.
Even if there is a logic behind this behavior, Outlook should at least inform the user why it rejects inserting the attachment.
Inserting attachments into e-mails works fine.
All 3rd party add-ins have been disabled, to avoid interference of an add-in.
Christian

Hi,
This is an known issue, you can refer to the article that our MVP Diane Poremsky wrote:
Attachments are hidden in Outlook.com tasks and appointments
http://slipstick.com/outlook/olc-hotmail/attachments-hidden-outlookcom-tasks-contacts-appointments/
My opinion is, since Outlook.com calendar doesn't support attachments, this may be expected when you are using an Outlook.com account.
Feel free to let me know if I misunderstood anything.

HT1338 cannot insert the disc into mac mini.It seems something obstructed.

cannot insert the disc into mac mini.it seemssomething obstrucetd inside.

1. Go into Spotlight from the top of your Mac Mini on the menu bar.
2. And search for "CDs & DVDs" (It's also in the System Preferences)
Click on it and a small CDs & DVDs window will pop up with options of what happens when you insert a disk into the drive
3. By then, try inserting a disk in (while that window is open. This kinda wakes up your drive to accept the disk). It should accept it.
4. If nothing happens, then manually open the program that should be opening when you insert the disk or go to Finder (Eg. if it's an audio disk, then open iTunes)
5. If opening the program still does not activate the drive to start spinning the disk, then close the programs and windows you opened, and repeat step 1-4 and the disk should be spinning and automatically opening the proper program.
Or go into Terminal app and type in: drutil ejec

Hope that helps!

Inserting a filename into BLOB

There is a lot of talk about inserting a file into BLOB or
just the file path and storing the file locally. I've decided to
store the file on the server but what I don't know is how to
capture that path and file name so I can insert it into the MySQL
database and later retrieve it when the display page is loaded.
Also, what is the download side of this? When the page is
called is there a 'best way' to serve up the file to the user?
Any sample code for this type of thing would really help me
get past this sticking point.
Thank you in advance.
I'm using a CF8/MySQL 5.x setup. Attached is my upload
code...

Bob,
Thanks for the code, but won't that actually store the
document in the database rather than just storing the file path? I
guess I was thinking it would be smarter to store the path in the
DB rather than the actual file itself. I know this is an invitation
to a heated discussion as I've found many examples of it here in
the forums...
Maybe I'm just misreading the code. And, yes, the intent is
to store PDF files for the client's app.
The intent is that when a user visits page 'x' they see a
short description of a lesson then click on a link to download the
pdf resource for that particular lesson. Maybe there is a better
way to do this, I don't know. I'm relatively new at this type of
situation.
Thank you for your quick reply!

Script to insert file name into keywords field of same file

Hello,
search a solution, a Script or another, which writes the file name into keywords field of same file (Metadata: Description/Keywords) in "photoshop", "bridge" or better in "Lightroom" .
I found this topic from Mike Hale http://www.ps-scripts.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=1330
It's possible this script to change this in such a way that it does this:
"script to insert file name into keywords field of same file"
Thanks and best greetings
Wolfgang

This works in CS2:-
#target bridge
   if( BridgeTalk.appName == "bridge" ) {
nameDescription = MenuElement.create("command", "AddName to Description", "at the beginning of Thumbnail");
nameDescription .onSelect = function () {
     nameToDescription();
function nameToDescription(){
var items = app.document.selections;
      for (var i = 0; i < items.length; ++i) {
         var item = items[i];
var m = item.synchronousMetadata;
filenameToDesc(m, item.name.slice(0,-4));
function filenameToDesc(metadata, Description) {
var strTmpl = "name2Desc";
var strUser = Folder.userData.absoluteURI;
var filTmpl = new File(strUser + "/Adobe/XMP/Metadata Templates/" + strTmpl + ".xmp");
var fResult = false;
try

MD form with a blob field on the detail

Hi,
I created a master detail form, my detail form is based on a table with a blob field.
I got the following error message when I hit 'OK' on the form to finish creation.
"Exception from wwv_generate_component.build_procedure (WWV-01821)
Error creating module: ORA-01403: no data found (WWV-16042)".
Why?
BTW, I can create a form based on a table with blob field without any problem, but not a master detail form.
Thanks;

Is it true that Pages cannot insert a page into the middle of a document?

Is it true that Pages cannot insert a page into the middle of a document?
I have tried this many times using different techniques and it just refuses to do it. Can anyone help?

To see how Pages works:
Menu > View > Page Thumbnails
When you click on the thumbnails each Section is outlined in yellow.
Click where you want a new page > Menu > Insert > Section Break
But then to have a new page all you need to do is add content to fill the page or Insert > Page Break to force the insertion point over onto a new page.

Cannot insert a picture (image - BLOB) directly into a report field?

Hello
I am new to APEX and I am trying to create a table with an image together with an input form and an output report but I am having difficulty in displaying the image in the report field.
My work so far:
1 I am using APEX to generate a table with a BLOB, Filename and Last_Update_Date fields.
2 I have followed the article on the http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/apex/apex31nf/apex31blob.htm.
3 The title is: 'Defining and Viewing BLOB Data in Oracle Application Express 3.1'
4 I have generated the table, form and report.
5 I have downloaded the image as an attachment and inline on the form Ok.
6 I have successfully downloaded an image on the report with the words image as a link in the report field. Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob_file?a=475&s=7094501042405784&p=3&d=1360784770040764381&i=1360783771822764369&p_pk1=123&p_pk2=&p_ck=2F17C4FBDE22B25A02026F67AB59D4F0&p_content_disposition=inline
7 I have unsuccessfully tried to insert the image directly into a report field itself. The report displays the picture as a symbol with a cross.
Note the http path is: http://glkas0892v.greenlnk.net:7777/pls/htmldbDEV/apex_util.get_blob?s=7094501042405784&a=475&c=1360779972416764351&p=2&k1=&k2=&ck=4BFA878ADD2028D2E9B127BB03F78B8D&rt=CR
7a I have reduced the size of the images to 20 by 30 pixels but no joy.
Conclusion
The only difference I can see is that in 6 the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob_file? But in 7, unsuccessful, the command in the path is apex_util.get_blob?
Please help me as there must be some one out there who has experienced the same situation.
Thanks
Brian

My colleague has found the answer. A known fault exists within APEX 3.1 in that the Blob declaration must be after the Last update declaration and then the image displays correctly on the report.

Inserting Image into BLOB field from URL

Is it possible to insert an image into a BLOB field from a URL? I don't have access to the filesystem on the server and I have a page that uses PL/PDF to generate dynamic PDF files from data I pull from the database. I would like to include my companies official header with logo on the top of the PDFs I generate and need to somehow get the image which I currently have uploaded to the images section in Application Express and can access from the "Shared Components => Images" section of the Application Builder. I just want to be able to either query whatever table holds those images or copy the image I need to a blob field in one of my tables so I can use it in my PDF document.
The other alternative (which is what I first mentioned above) would be to try and perform an insert into the BLOB field in my table but the location of the image file would be like "http://www.myportal.com:7777/pls/htmldb/wwv_flow_file_mgr.get_file?p_security_group_id=1234567&p_flow_id=111&p_fname=myimage.jpg".
Is this possible? If not, what can I do?
Thanks in advance.

The reason why I am asking this question in this forum is two-fold:
1. I am using Application Express (AE).
2. Since I am using AE all images that I upload to my workspace are stored in a table in a database and not as an actual file in a directory structure like in Windows etc. This being the case, I can't ever reference any of the files that I upload to my workspace in order to insert them into my BLOB field unless I know their physical location on disk (which of course does not exist b/c they are stored in the AE database somewhere). If I knew AE's database and table structure I could do a "select into ..." from whatever table stores my uploaded images and save those images to my own custom table in my BLOB field.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I thought I had found the answer here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/tech/java/codesnippet/jdbc/lob/LobToSP.html
I adapted the Clob code to a Blob:
private BLOB getBLOB( byte[] array)
throws Exception {
BLOB b = null;
try {
// create a new temporary BLOB
b = BLOB.createTemporary( conn, true, BLOB.DURATION_SESSION );
// Open the temporary BLOBin readwrite mode to enable writing
b.open( BLOB.MODE_READWRITE );
b.setBytes(array);
// Get the output stream to write
} catch ( Exception exp ) {
// Free BLOB object
b.freeTemporary( );
// do something
return b;
however, it appears that the BLOB being returned is null, and when sent to the DB, nothing is actually written. So any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

PL/SQL 10g - Cannot Insert Values from PL/SQL

Hi People,
BACKGROUND (if required):
I'm trying to write a message threading algorithm for uni, I believe it works so far, it's just matching the subjects at the moment I want to expand it to include email addresses but that will be at a later date.
A brief run down, at the moment, a user can generate a list of email addresses to filter the corpus with, these are then inserted (via Java) into the table Sender. These addresses are then used in an IF statement, however they are only used if the table sender is populated. The messges that are identified as threads have their Message ID inserted into another table but they also have their values printed to the DBMS output.
QUESTION:
What I need help with is although the values print out to the DBMS Output after a great deal of time, normally after the DBMS buffer has maxed out (thus the statement ends in error). The values printed are not inserted into the table.
Any help on solving this or optimising if would be greatly appreciated, I'm new to PL/SQL i'm afraid so it's probably a really messy statement.
If this is a badly worded question and I need to supply more information then I gladly will, however i'm not 100% on what information is relevant at the moment.
Below is the statement in question.
Thanks and Regards,
K

cd,
I will most certainly try.
I have a table of emails that I am attempting to thread by means of comparing the subjects together (for now). However ultimately I want to be able to bring in the recipients as well. However this can be ignored for now.
The main variables from the Messages table are:
MID(number) - 0 - 245000
SENDER(VARCHAR) - Email Address
SUBJECT_CLN6 - VARCAHR - Cleaned email subject.
I am creating two instancs of a cursor that contains the subjects and MID's from Messages. I am then looping through cur1 comparing the value against all values in cur2, this continues until all values in cur1 have been compared against cur2. I use the MID to ensure that I am not comparing the same Message. Furthermore I am also filtering the Emails by Sender (if the table has been populated by the user, via a java applet, otherwise if just uses the subject). The variable Send_User_Cur takes takes its values from the Table called Sender, whilst sub_one_sender takes its values from the column Sender in Messages.
The proposed output of this at the moment is to just have the MID's (and later all the relevant columns, however just for now MID) of all the threaded emails, inserted into the table MATCH_THREAD, such that they can be called upon later for further processing and most likely called from a java applet at some point as well.
I've pasted the entire code below. I understand that it looks a bit messy on the preview and for that I apologise.
Thanks all!

Inserting and updating a BLOB field

Friends I want my application (Oracle is the backend) to look for a character in a BLOB field and then replace it with the desired character.
Can some one give me some example of retrieving and updating a BLOB field

Examples are in Oracle Technet: http://otn.oracle.com/
In this forum I saw also some examples and in your local Oracle Client Installation you find under $ORACLE_HOME$/jdbc/demo/ examples.

Insert multiple choices into mysql field

I have a form that inserts a record into mysql. it's working
fine except when i changed the pull-down menu to a list allowing
multiple selections, it only inserts the last item selected. I know
it should insert the valuse as comma separated. Here's the php:
GetSQLValueString($_POST['not_reen_list'], "text"),
and the HTML:
<select name="not_reen_list" size="10" multiple="multiple"
id="not_reen_list">
<option value="Nothing selected"
selected="selected">Please select one</option><option
value="Cost">Cost</option>
<option value="School could not meet our financial aid
needs"> School could not meet our financial aid needs
</option>
<option value="Prefer another school">Prefer another

</select>
Any help is appreciated.

That's because you're not sending the form data as an array.
Change this:
<select name="not_reen_list"
to this:
<select name="not_reen_list[]"
At the top of the PHP script, convert the array to a
comma-separated
string by adding this:
if (isset($_POST['not_reen_list'])) {
$_POST['not_reen_list'] = implode(',',
$_POST['not_reen_list']);
