Dear all,
I want to change the date format in the oracle reports. I am using weblayout & paper layout. I have changed format mask using property inspector. It appears in paper layout. How can i get in the weblayout, please help me.
With Regards,

Hi Srinivas,
I think whatever applicable in Paper Layout should be applicable to Web Layout also.

Date format problem in web dynpro java

Currently, the date format that gets displayed in our webdynpro java application is MMDDYYYY...i am assuming this is because the web dynpro application has language resource set to en_US as its Current locale in the web dynpro deployed content section. Howver i want it to display as DDMMYYYY. I have changed the default properties in visual admin for web dynpro from en to en_GB however this has no impact what so ever as the current locale is always set to en_US even after the change so am wondering this property is hidden some where else. Now the web dynpro i am talking about is a adobe portal application. Could you give me any pointers as to where else i can look for or how i can change the current locale properly ??
Regards
Kal

The date format in the Web Dynpro Java Application depends upon locale. At runtime WDJ will do the following process to get the current locale for the date format to be determined.
1. First the WDJ Application will check for the locale set for the user in UME.
2. If there is no default locale in UME, then the it will check for the locale in the in the browser which in most cases by default is en-us.
3. If not, then it will check for the sap.systemLocale in the Propertysheet default of Visual Admin
4. If there no locale specified in Visual Admin, itu2019s taken from the WAS JVM

How to display clob/blob in the web layout using Reports9i

Hi,
I've created a report that selects both a clob and blob datatype in the query. However, when I run the report using the 'Run Web Layout' tool no data is displayed for these columns. Does the <rw:field> tag support such datatypes ?.
Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,
Reports9i supports both BLOB and CLOB in both paper as well as web layout. Pl make sure that in the column properties that you want to display, you have selected the "File Format" correctly (to do this, go to data model > column > property inspector > file format). Eg, you can select "text", "image" etc depending on what you have stored in the column. Also, when you want to display an image in the web layout, you will have to write containsHtml="yes" inside your <re:field> tag.

Problem with SQL*Loader and different date formats in the same file

DB: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
System: AIX 5.3.0.0
Hello,
I'm using SQL*Loader to import semi-colon separated values into a table. The files are delivered to us by a data provider who concatenates data from different sources and this results in us having different date formats within the same file. For example:
...;2010-12-31;22/11/1932;...
I load this data using the following lines in the control file:
EXECUTIONDATE1 TIMESTAMP NULLIF EXECUTIONDATE1=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:EXECUTIONDATE1, 'YYYY-MM-DD')",
DELDOB TIMESTAMP NULLIF DELDOB=BLANKS "TO_DATE(:DELDOB, 'DD/MM/YYYY')",
The relevant NLS parameters:
NLS_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
NLS_DATE_FORMAT=DD/MM/RR
NLS_DATE_LANGUAGE=FRENCH
If I load this file as is the values loaded into the table are 31 dec 2010 and 22 nov *2032*, aven though the years are on 4 digits. If I change the NLS_DATE_FORMAT to DD/MM/YYYY then the second date value will be loaded correctly, but the first value will be loaded as 31 dec *2020* !!
How can I get both date values to load correctly?
Thanks!
Sylvain

This is very strange, after running a few tests I realized that if the year is 19XX then it will get loaded as 2019, and if it is 20XX then it will be 2020. I'm guessing it may have something to do with certain env variables that aren't set up properly because I'm fairly sure my SQL*Loader control file is correct... I'll run more tests :-(

How to handle Multiple date formats for the same date field in SQL*Loader

Dear All,
I got a requirement where I need to get data from a text file and insert the same into oracle table.
I am using SQL*Loader to populate the data from the text file into my table.
The file has one field where I am expecting date date data in multiple formats, like dd/mon/yyyy, yyyy/dd/mon, yyyy/mon/dd, ,mm/dd/yyyy, mon/dd/yyyy.
While using SQL*Loader, I can see Loading is failing for records where we have formats like yyyy/dd/mon, yyyy/mon/dd, mon/dd/yyyy.
Is there any way in SQL*Loader where we can mention all these date formats so that this date data should go smoothly into the underlying date column in the table.
Appreciate your response on this.
Thanks,
Madhu K.

The point being made was, are you sure that you can uniquely identify a date format from the value you receieve? Are you sure that the data stored is only of a particular limited set of formats?
e.g. if you had a value of '07/08/03' how do you know what format that is?
It could be...
7th August 2003 (thus assuming it's DD/MM/RR format)
or
8th July 2003 (thus assuming it's MM/DD/RR format)
or
3rd August 2007 (thus assuming it's RR/MM/DD format)
or
8th March 2007 (thus assuming it's RR/DD/MM format)
or even more obscurely...
3rd July 2008 (MM/RR/DD)
or
7th March 2008 (DD/RR/MM)
Do you have any information to tell you what formats are valid that would allow you to be specific and know what date format is meant?
This is a classic example of why dates should be stored on the database using DATE datatype and not VARCHAR2. It can lead to corruption of data, especially if the date can be entered in any format a user wishes.

Date format in the file datastore

Hi,
I have source as file, in which I have date column. While creating the file datastore, I have selected the datatype as date & have given the source date format in the format column and it is working fine.
But I have source file coming with different date formats for the same column.
My question is whether i can give multiple date formats in the format column??
1. If yes how to separate the formats i.e with comma or semi-colon or etc...
2. If No, thn how to achieve it. as I can use to_date function, but in that also I have to give all the date formats.

Assuming Oracle is target database..
Try this...
1. In your file data store make the column as Varchar2
2. In the interface mapping -- specify the following string in the target column mapping
TO_DATE(REPLACE('2011-06-01','-',''),'YYYYMMDD')
If your target column is date, Oracle will convert database proper format and insert the date..
Hope this works out....
Thanks

How to get the Date format inside the table

I have a startdate column in the db in the format May 5, 2001 12:39:00 PM, when I query it from a view in this way : SELECT startdate, ... FROM ..., it returns the format in the db,
However I have to do this SELECT
decode(startdate, null, 'NOT START'), startdate), ... the result is 5-MAY-01,
then I tried this to_char(startTime, 'Month DD, YYYY HH:MI: A.M.') the results become May 05, 2001 12:39:00 PM. (more space between month and day, and 05 instaed of 5)
Does anybody know how to fix this, so I get exactly what is in the db?
Thanks in advance

No matter what you do if you are storing a date in a column it will get stored in the Oracle's internal 7 byte date format.
The way you get it on retreiving it is as set by your date format. You can either change the default date format for the instance, the individual session or the individual SQL statement(in this case using to_char(date, 'format')).
If you want to store the date in a format you want to store you'll have to store it as char or varchar2.

When you do to_char() with 'month' oracle blank pads the month to nine characters, the same goes with day too. So to get rid of it you'll have to trim() the month. And if you want to get a single digit for date less than 10 instead of 0x you'll have to do a bit of extra jugglery using translate() or replace().
Hope this helps

How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?

Hello guys,
Very embarassing question, because I've had Apple's for all of my life (starting with the original Apple Macintosh) but I still haven't figured out one thing
How do I set a custom time & date format in the top bar?
When I go to System Preferences > Language & Text > Formats I can set different formats. I have no idea where you will see these, but I know that it's not the top bar where the time and date is being displayed. Because no matter what I enter, the format in the top bar will stay the same. I can only choose things like 24-Hour clock or not, blinking dots and so on in the Time & Date settings from the System Preferences.
Can anyone here point me in the right direction? I see you can even choose to display the week of the year - I'd love to do that!
All help appreciated!
Greetings

Language & Text system preferences, Formats tab, customize dates.
There are also many third party menu item utilities that can. Search Macupdate.com for some.
One search yielded iClock Pro. Although I never used it I would think it allows customization. The link I gave you is to the Macupdate download page for that app. On that same page is a Similar Software section which has other apps that can do the same thing.
One listed is iStat Menus. The primary use for iStat Menus is not for displaying date/time but it does do that. And I know it can do what you want because I use iStat Menus to track temperature sensors n my machine and, like you, I want to customize the menu time/date. So I use it instead of the apple clock. It does have the customization features I think you are looking for.

Setting date format for the entire SQL Server installation - SQL Server 2008 R2-2012

Hi,
I need to safeguard the behaviour of SQL codes that inserting into SQL tables with some date columns. For this purpose, I need to change the date format for the SQL instance and not using CONVERT and CAST.
I've seen the SET DATE FORMAT statement, but if I use it, could I solve my problem?

The language setting is related to the database user.

Specifies the default language for the new user. If a default language is specified for the user and the default language of the database is later changed, the users default language remains as specified.
If no default language is specified, the default language for the user will be the default language of the database. If the default language for the user is not specified and the default language of the database is later changed, the default
language of the user will change to the new default language for the database."

How can I permanently change the date format from the American format to the UK's without having to constantly change it manually every time I start a new spreadsheet?

This is my first mac so I'm still getting my bearings with it. I've only used Windows programmes before. I can't understand why it's so hard to change the date format of the cells in Numbers to keep it showing the UK format. The system preferences of the mac show that it's in the correct region and has the correct date but this doesn't seem to transfer into the Numbers program. I was very impressed with the mac until I discovered this. If anyone knows how I can get the date to stay in the correct format without having to go through the process of altering it in the cell inspector everytime then I would be very grateful.

Numbers & most apps, especially those from Apple, use the date format you have set in System Preferences > Language & Text > Region. You can then choose UK from the Region drop-down list. Mine says Custom because I've defined things further as in the second screenshot.

Can't Create the ODBC connection for Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am working with Oracle 10g Database Release 2 in windows XP professional. I am trying to create an ODBC connection for oracle but become failure because its generating the following errors:

Please help me how can I solve this problem and create the ODBC connection for oracle 10g database.

The odbc driver config routine will search directories listed in PATH variable for necessary libraries (Client dll's). If some library fails to load (from e.g. oraoci*.dll or oraclient10.dll) it will probably error out, as in your case.
Are you creating the odbc dsn on the databse server host or on some other machine? I.e. are you using the db host as a client or not?
