Who change format date?

hi,
who i can change format date in servidor ORACLE for all client?
Thank´s

The default format can be set by changing the NLS_DATE_FORMAT initialization parameter and restarting the database, alter system set nls_date_format = "YYYYMMDD" scope=spfile; and the database has to be shutdown and restarted to enforce the change. It might be alter database instead of alter system, I usually try the wrong one first.
But the setting can be overridden in the client setup or changed in a user session, there's no way to enforce a particular format on the client environment.

Thank you

Hi,
Sorry, I'm not sure I uderstand the problem.
Are you getting the date correctly, but you want to store it in a VARCHAR2 column? That's not a very good idea: dates belong in DATE columns, but if you ever want to convert a DATE into a string, use TO_CHAR:
TO_CHAR ( TO_DATE ( TRUNC ( DBMS_RANDOM.VALUE (2455532, 2455563+3)
            , 'J'
     , 'DD-MM-YYYY'
     )or equivalently:
TO_CHAR ( DATE '2010-12-01' + dbms_random.value (0, 34)
     , 'DD-MM-YYYY'
     )Since you're not displaying the hours, minutes or seconds, there's no point in using TRUNC just to set them to 00:00:00.

Change format date for Calendar Prompt!!!

Hello there,
For a date prompt when I choose *"Calendar"* in my control, the default format shown by the calendar is d/mm/yyyy.
I want to save the value of my date prompt into a Presentation variable with the format yyyy-mm-dd. What conversion function can be used to achieve this?. In oracle the easiest way is TO_CHAR(dateHere,'YYYY-MM-DD') but when I apply this in the Edit Formula of the prompt it gives me an error.
I know the date format for a Calendar object can be changed in the configuration file, but I want to avoid this, because I might affect other users.
Please help.
Thanks

yes, I restarted presentation server and oc4j.
but has no effects.

Changing the Date format in iCal

Is there any way to change the date format from American (MM/DD/YY) to European (DD/MM/YY) in iCal?
Thanks in advance.

As far as I'm aware, it should respect what you specify in the Formats tab of the International pane in System Preferences.

How can I change the date format in Reminders and in Notes?

How can I change the date format in both Notes and Reminders? Preference on Imac and Settings in IOS do not allow me to change the format in those 2 apps.
I Like to see 10oct rather than 10/10, as an example.

pierre
I do not have Mavericks or iOS - but the first thing I would do is reset the defaults - I'll use Mavericks as an example
From If the wrong date or time is displayed in some apps on your Mac - Apple Support
OS X Yosemite and Mavericks
    Open System Preferences.
    From the View menu, choose Language & Region.
    Click the Advanced button.
    Click the Dates tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click the Times tab.
    Click the Restore Defaults button.
    Click OK.
    Quit the app where you were seeing incorrect dates or times displayed.
    Open the app again, and verify that the dates and times are now displayed correctly.
Then customize to taste - OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
OS X Mavericks: Customize formats to display dates, times, and more
Change the language and formats used to display dates, times, numbers, and currencies in Finder windows, Mail, and other apps. For example, if the region for your Mac is set to United States, but the format language is set to French, then dates in Finder windows and email messages appear in French.
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Language & Region.
    Choose a geographic region from the Region pop-up menu, to use the region’s date, time, number, and currency formats.
    To customize the formats or change the language used to display them, click Advanced, then set options.
    In the General pane, you can choose the language to use for showing dates, times, and numbers, and set formats for numbers, currency, and measurements.
    In the Dates and Times panes, you can type in the Short, Medium, Long, and Full fields, and rearrange or delete elements. You can also drag new elements, such as Quarter or Milliseconds, into the fields.
    When you’re done customizing formats, click OK.
    The region name in Language & Region preferences now includes “Custom” to indicate you customized formats.
To undo all of your changes for a region, choose the region again from the Region pop-up menu. To undo your changes only to advanced options, click Advanced, click the pane where you want to undo your changes, then click Restore Defaults.
To change how time is shown in the menu bar, select the “Time format” checkbox in Language & Region preferences, or select the option in Date & Time preferences.
Here's the result AppleScript i use to grab the " 'Short Date' ' + ' 'Short Time' " to paste into download filenames - works good until I try to post it here - the colon " : " is a no-no but is fine in the Finder
Looks like iOS Settings are a bit less robust

VBA:comboboxes to present same date in different formats...ADAPT WITH CHANGE IN DATE

Hi all,
I'm very new to VBA and excel development, so please take that into consideration as you read on.
I'm trying to create a work form for a database that (should) collect various information in comboboxes, including the date, the weekday, and the month... Note: most of the time, the data will be inserted the day after it's been collected. So, I wanted to create
one combobox for the date, one for the weekday, and one for the month, because I want columns for each of these in the database (If this is not necessary/efficient, please help! :) ) .
Here's what I've got so far:
'worksheet setup
Dim ws As Worksheet
Set ws = Worksheets("LookupList")
'Date dropdown setup
Dim cDateToday As Range
For Each cDateToday In ws.Range("DateList")
With Me.cboDate
.AddItem cDateToday.Value
End With
Next cDateToday
'If today is Monday, then set date to last friday, if any other weekday, set it to day before that
If Weekday(Date - 1) <> 2 Then
Me.cboDate.Value = Format(DateAdd("D", -Weekday(Date) - 1, Date), "Medium Date")
Else
Me.cboDate.Value = Format(Date - 1, "Medium Date")
End If
Problem #1: Right now, I am getting the date values from the list
DateList in the worksheet LookupList...is there a better way of doing this?
Problem #2: When the user form is run, the correct date and format shows up. However, if I change the date, the dropdown list in the combobox starts from the initial date in given list...is there anyway to bring the list closer to the current
date? Think Calendar View
Problem #3: I want the weekday and month values to be directly correlated to the date value discussed above, so hypothetically when the user form is run the correct date, weekday, and month all show up (based on the same date value), then if
I change the date, the weekday and month automatically update. Is this possible, if so how?
The reason I want this functionality is so that on a Monday, I can run the work form and it will automatically have Friday's date, weekday, month info as it opens. When I'm done with Friday, I can run it again, switch the date to the Saturday's
date (weekday and month automatically update), then repeat for Sunday.
I have tried running the same code for the weekday and month as I have for the date, and they work
until the date is changed. Once the date is changed, I have to manually change the weekday, which leads to format change, and same for month, which all leads to :( and confusion
Again, I am very new to vba and don't know much about it all and appreciate any/all help!
Thanks in advance!
/Alex

I can give you a little advice but I don't understand your comment "if I change the date, the weekday and month automatically update" Where do you want them to update?
I am assuming that your entire question is referring to a Userform with the Combobox. Is this correct?
The code can be much simpler to populate the combobox list. You already have a named range for the Dates so you can use that directly to populate the RowSource. (RowSource if the combox is on a Userform or ListFillRange for a combobox on a worksheet).
Then the WorksheetFunction Workday can be used to get the previous workday without weekend days. It also looks after the previous day when the actual date is mid week. Look up the function on the worksheet Help because you can also have a separate list
of holidays that will be excluded like weekend days.
If you are new to VBA then a tip about Help. You need to be on the worksheet and click Help to get worksheet help and in the VBA editor you click Help to call the VBA help. Don't just select Help off the taskbar when changing between the worksheet and VBA
because you will finish up with the incorrect Help file.
Example of code to assign a named range to the RowSource of a ComboBox. Named range needs to be Global and not scoped to a worksheet otherwise the worksheet name is also required.
    Me.cboDate.RowSource = "DateList"
Example of code to assign the previous workday to the combobox value.
    'Following line sets value to previous workday (Mon to Friday)
    Me.cboDate.Value = WorksheetFunction.WorkDay(Date, -1)
Then there is another problem with ComboBoxes and dates. If the Dates are real dates on the worksheet (Not Text) then the dropdown list displays in the same format as the worksheet but when the date is selected, it displays as a serial number. This
can also be rectified with code but first I need to know what the format of the data is on the worksheet.
Can you upload a copy of your workbook because it is like a picture is worth a thousand words. Same goes for having a copy of the workbook. If it has sensitive data then create a copy and remove the sensitive data.

How do I change the date format?

Sorry, but I'm new to Oracle!
I'm using "sqlplusw" to build my SQL statements. When I return columns that are date fields, I get the DD-MON-YY format. I want dates to be returned in "YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS". My DBA won't change the date format on the server, so how do I change SQLPLUS to return dates in the format I want? Do I need set this in some kind of startup file, or a reg key?
Using client version 9.2.0.5 against a 9.2.0.1 server
Jeff

There are a couple of ways you could do it.
Way 1:
Search for a file by name 'glogin.sql' on your client work station and add the following statement
alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure you save the file. This change will apply to all users who will log into the database using SQL*PLUS from your machine.
Way 2:
Create a shortcut and place it some where (for example on the 'DESKTOP').
Right click on the short cut and choose properties.
Change the text corresponding to the 'Start in' box to reflect the current location of the shortcut.
Create a file by name 'login.sql' and place it in the same folder as the shortcut.
Edit the file and add the following line.
alter session set nls_date_format = 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS';Make sure that you save the file.
When you double click the shortcut to start SQL*Plus and login, the script 'login.sql' is executed.

How do you change the date and time format in Pages

I've tried changing the date and time format a number of times for Pages but it does not change. I'm going to the System Preferences/Language and Text and Formats. I make the changes click on OK and go back to Pages. NO change.

Hi Uncle,
Page 116 of the Pages'09 User Guide: Control Click the date, Edit Date and Time.
Date and time can also be in a table. Format the table cell.
The User Guide is well worth a read. Download it from the Help menu in Pages.

Formscentral - how do I change required date format to long date (e.g. January 2, 2014) in a form field? I can't seem to change it from the short date format.

Hi,
I would suggest you to change the form language to English (UK), Here are the steps:-
1. Open your form in FormsCentral
2. Clik on Options tab
3. Click on Language and Formatting and check out the selection for Form Language and make sure English (U.K.) is selected and the default date format should be day/month/year.

Change display Date format from 06.2011 to june 2011 in output of Query

Hi All,

Hi Nandish,
as tibollo said you just need to mark 0CALMONTH with text in RSD1.
Kindly note that you don't need to do data load for this object.
It will automatically derive by system.
Just change the Info object 0CALMONTH in RSD1, Go to Master Data/text column and check mark on with text.
Then activate it.
