Check special characters in a string

Hi all
I am using oracle 10g.......
Need to know what should be the query to check whether a special character exists or not in a column value....used the following query like.....
select count(*) into emp_no_count_special_char
from dual
where REGEXP_LIKE(insert_data_rec.emp_no , '[#!$^&*%./\|]$' )
or REGEXP_LIKE(insert_data_rec.emp_no , '^[#!$^&*%./\|]' );
This works fine in case a string starts or ends with a special character ,what if a string of special characters lies in between numeric digits.
e.g: '100#$%7'
Please help find a query that checks for the existence of sp. characters irrespective of their position in the column!!!
Thanks
Dave

Hi Dave,
example below:
-- Check that at least one special character exists in the string
SELECT COUNT (*)
INTO emp_no_count_special_char
FROM DUAL
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE (insert_data_rec.emp_no, '[#!$^&*%./\|]');
-- Check that no special characters exist in the string
SELECT COUNT (*)
INTO emp_no_count_special_char
FROM DUAL
WHERE NOT REGEXP_LIKE (insert_data_rec.emp_no, '[#!$^&*%./\|]');
{code}

How to check special characters in java code using Java.util.regex package

String guid="first_Name;Last_Name";
Pattern p5 = Pattern.compile("\\p{Punct}");
Matcher m5 =p5.matcher(guid);
boolean test=m5.matches();
I want to find out the weather any speacial characters are there in the String guid using regex.
but above code is always returning false. pls suggest.

Pattern.compile ("[^\\w]");The above will match any non [a-zA-Z0-9_] character.
Or you could do
Pattern.compile("[^\\s^\\w]");This should match anything that is not a valid charcter and is not whitespace.

Check on special characters

In my program, on the selection screen a user can enter any variable except special characters.How can I put a check on special characters??

hi,
In our key board, these many special characters present..
so try your code like this..
data: spe_char(31) value '~`!@#$%^&*()_+-=\|][{}";:,./?><'. ( include all
special chars whatever u want)
spe_char1 value ' '. ( this is to check empty space)
spechar2. (this is to check single ' ).
Create one text element and assign ' as value to that text element.
in ur program code as given below.
spechar2 = text-001.
if (fieldname) CA spe_char.
MESSAGE "special character is present in the given input
endif.
if ( fieldname) CA spe_char1.
message "special character is present in the given input
endif.
if (fieldname) CA spe_char2.
len = strlen( fieldname ).
if sy-fdpos NE len.
message "special character is present in the given input
endif.
endif.
Hope this code will guide you ..

Just a simple check with special characters

Hi guys and gals,
i created a boolean method that will check the value of string for any special characters like (/,'%&^# ), what i did is to used indexOf() method. it will return false if the string doesn't have any special character. But, i'm having a problem using the check for the backlslach character ' \ ', since it is considered as escape literal when i put inside indexOf('\'). i really need you help on this.
if you have other ways to check this kind of character, please put them here. i really need them bady. :D many thanks,

Look for "\\" or look up the unicode for "\" and use that.

Regular expression: check for the presence of special characters.

I have the following requirement:
I need to check for the presence of the following characters in a keyword: @, #, > if any of these characters are present, then they need to be stripped off, before going further. Please let me know the regular expression to check for these characters.

I am trying to extend the same logic for the following characters:
.,?!@#%^&*()-~<>[]{}\+=`©® . here is the code fragment:
Pattern kValidator = Pattern.compile("[\\.,\\\\?!@#%^&*()-~<>[]{}\\+=\\`©®]");
Matcher kMatcher = kValidator.matcher(keyWord);
if (kMatcher.find(0)) {
keyWord = keyWord.replaceAll("[.,\\\\?!@#%^&*()-~<>[]{}\\+=\\`©®]", " ");
}I get the following error. This error is from the weblogic command window. I dont understand these special characters.

Checking for Special Characters

I need to check if a textbox in my form containes special characters (entered by user). If there are any, I need to display an error message.
I have written a function but it's not working.
here's my function:
function checkForSpecialChracters(oFiled)
var userInput = oFiled.rawValue; // take the String entered by the user
var iChars = "@#$%^&*+=-[]\\\';,./{}|\":<>?~_";
for (var i = 0; i < userInput.length; i++)
if (iChars.indexOf(userInput.charAt(i)) != -1) {
xfa.host.messageBox("Please check for special characters. The following characters are not allowed: @#$%^&*+=-[]\\\';,./{}|\":<>?~_ ", "Error Message", 3);
// Change the color of the field
oFiled.fillColor = "255,100,50";
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Paul,
It is working now. I don't know what I might have changed.
Here's my final function (It works!):
function checkForSpecialChracters(oFiled)
var userInput = oFiled.rawValue; // take the String entered by the user
var iChars = "@#$%^&*+=-[]\\\';,./{}|\":<>?~_";
var hasSpecialCharacter = false;
for (var i = 0; i < userInput.length; i++)
//app.alert("Value is: " + userInput.charAt(i));
if (iChars.indexOf(userInput.charAt(i)) != -1)
hasSpecialCharacter = true;
break;
} // end if
} // end For loop
if (hasSpecialCharacter)
// Change the color of the field
oFiled.fillColor = "255,100,50";
xfa.host.messageBox("Please check for special characters. \n\nThe following characters are not allowed:\n\n @#$%^&*+=-[]\\\';,./{}|\":<>?~_ ", "Error Message", 3);
else if (!hasSpecialCharacter)
oFiled.fillColor = "255,255,255";

XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

Hello,
I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Do anyone have a solution for this
Thanks in advance
