Displaying diff dates using PL/SQL expression for 'display only' item ?

Hi ,
I am having a display only item -- :P2_FROM_Date . If its Thu,Fri,Sat or Sun I want to set the date as the last Monday's date . If its Mon,Tue or Wed then it should be the present Monday's date .
E.g: Today is Friday and the last Monday was on 18th .
So for yesterday , today,tomorrow and Sunday , the date should be displayed as 18-JUN-2012.
From the coming Monday to Wednesday , the date should of be the coming Monday i.e , 24-JUN-2012
I tried it doing under 'Source ' of item using PL/SQL expression and PL/SQL function body. Not working
Can someone help ?
Thanks & Regards

Aren't these rules equivalent to "Monday this week, where Monday is the first day of the week"? In which case the PL/SQL Expression you require is:
trunc(sysdate, 'iw')For example:
SQL> with t as (
2    select date '2012-06-21' + level d from dual connect by level <= 17)
3 select
4            d

Pl/sql expression for default value

I'm trying to run this simple script as a default value using pl/sql expression, but I keep getting this error. THe select statement itself works fine as a sql statement source value, but will not work as a pl/sql exression as a default value. This (:P33_SYSUSERID_CREATED_BY ) is the field name on the form. Any ideas?
begin
select a.id || ', ' || A.NAME_LAST into :P33_SYSUSERID_CREATED_BY from S_USERSV a where a.name_last = 'HAMMAKER';
end;
Error ERR-9132 Error in PLSQL expression for item default code, item=P33_SYSUSERID_CREATED_BY
OK
ORA-06550: line 1, column 27: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "BEGIN" when expecting one of the following: ( - + case mod new not null avg count current exists max min prior sql stddev sum variance execute forall merge time timestamp interval date pipe

Sudha,
For a default value type of PL/SQL Expression, you could create a function that accepts an input and returns a value. If the function (not a procedure) is named GET_REFNO, you would call it using an expression in the default value field like:
get_refno(:P3_REFTYPE)
For a default value type of PL/SQL Function Body, you could call your existing procedure with a default value like:declare
    l_value varchar2(32767);
begin
    get_refno(:P3_REFTYPE, l_value);
    return l_value;
end;Scott

Write / store xml data in Xe and retrieve stored data using pl/sql

Hi to all,
i'm searching a tutorial on:
A - how to write / store xml data in Xe and retrieve stored data using pl/sql
I don't want to use other technologies, because i use htmldb and my best practice is with pl/sql.
I was reading an ebook (quite old maybe) however it's about oracle 9 and it's talking about xmltype:
1 - I don't understand if this is a user type (clob/varchar) or it's integrated in Oracle 9 however i will read it (it's chapter 3 titled Using Oracle xmldb).
Please dont'reply here: i would be glad if someone can suggest me a good tutorial / pdf to achieve task A in Oracle XE.
Thanx

Thank you very much Carl,
However my fault is that i've not tried to create the table via sql plus.
Infact i was wrong thinking that oracle sql developer allows me to create an xmltype column via the create table tool.
however with a ddl script like the following the table was created successfully.
create table example1
keyvalue varchar2(10) primary key,
xmlcolumn xmltype
Thank you very much for your link.

Replace ' with ' in my data using pl/sql

I want to replace all occurrence of special characters like ' with ' in my data using pl/sql.
How can I achieve this?

Thank you for your quick reply. My code is:
DECLARE
firstname varchar2(200) := 'cccc&a p o s;dddd'; ---> Please remove spaces between a p o s. Combine them as apos
lastname varchar2(200) := 'eeee';
BEGIN
dbms_output.put_line('Before changing : firstname :' || firstname);
dbms_output.put_line('After changing: firstname :' || replace(LastName, "'" , "'") );
END;
When I run this in sqlplus, I see:
SQL> @EscapeCharTesting.sql
Enter value for apos:
So I want to change all occurences of "&a p o s;" to CHR(39)

You can have them both on the same computer as I and many others have done for years.
Just go ahead and install FCS 3 normally.
There will be absolutely no problems.

Using Final Cut Express for video editing without attaching external device

Hello,
I am a newbie to Final Cut Express as well as Mac's in general. I am wanting to use Final Cut Express for video editing of files, but without an attached camera. Is there any way to have Final Cut Express startup without having it prompt for an external A/V device? I just want to do some basic editing and use the chroma key feature. Can anyone help?
Greatly Appreciated,

Hi Zak,
Unfortunately, I've tried that and I get into an issue that was addressed in this posting: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=836595&tstart=120 where FCE will show the splash screen and then the program doesn't start. I then have to delete FCE preferences and then I will get the Easy Setup dialog box prompt me again for choosing the external device.
I am looking for a way to use FCE for video editing of files that I already have on my computer that I created using iClone software and is in .avi, or .mp4 format. I get FCE to work one time without the external device actually being attached, but then when restarting the program I get the dialog box asking for the external device and if it's not there, the program just closes, and to get it to work again, I have to delete the preference files and go through the process all over again which is time consuming especially when this is at work. If FCE is not the right program, can anyone suggest a good video editing program that doesn't require an external device and is as good or better than FCE?
Thanks again for your help and support,

You can just unplug the express and use the Uverse wireless or ethernet directly to it.

HT3728 I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only. Can this be done and how?

I do not need another wireless network but want to use the airport express for printer access only. Can this be done and how?

You can configure the AirPort Expess to "Join a wireless network" and enable the Ethernet port so that Ethernet devices will be able to connect.
In order to print from the iOS devices, you will need to have an application like Printopia installed on your Mac. The Mac must be active when you want to print.
More details here: Printopia - AirPrint to Any Printer - Print from iPad - Print from iPhone ...
There is a free trial available for Printopia, so make sure that it will work before you buy the AirPort Express.

How is the extreme setup? New extreme cannot be setup with 5.6 utility.. you must use latest 6.3. Which also means you cannot setup from computer using less than Lion .. or you must use iOS with latest utility but it has limited configuration cf the computer version.

SQL Expression for date conversion - version XI

I am trying to convert a number field to a date field in order to use it in a date parameter in Infoview. The database field is in a 15 digit DTM format but is stored as a number. There is also a zero stored in the database field. When I try to create the date SQL Expression I get this error: Error in compiling SQL Expression: Failed to retrieve data from the database. Details: ORA-01840: input value not long enough for date format. How can I get the SQL Expression to not look at the zero? I tried putting a statement in my Record Selection to not pull any zero fields but that doesn't work. Any ideas? Thanks! Kelley

Hi Kelly,
It's been a while since I used Info View, so if it's about registering, etc. I won't know the
answer.
Did you link it ? Have you tested that it should even return data ?
Check the filtering, etc in a query builder to make sure.
Have you tested the sub report by running it by itself ? (just add a value to the parameter
field request)
Do you have suppression formulas in the sub report ?
Is the section of the main report that is holding the sub report
free of "suppresion" formulas ?

Using pl/sql function for each day between two dates.

Hi,
create TABLE EMP(
ID_EMP NUMBER,
DT_FROM DATE,
DT_TO DATE,
CREATE_DATE DATE);
into EMP(ID_EMP, DT_FROM, DT_TO, CREATE_DATE)
Values(100, TO_DATE('07/01/2008 00:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), TO_DATE('04/30/2010 00:00:00', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'),TO_DATE('05/08/2009 14:11:21', 'MM/DD/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'));
I have a function called elig_pay_dates(date p_date), which returns the code for person payment eligibility for a particular date. For paid dates it's 'P' and for unpaid dates it's 'N'.
How can I check this function between two dates for each day. Example : 07/01/2008 to 04/30/2010.
By using this function with select I needs to display the dates when there is a change in status.
I am expecting data in following manner from above logic(this is example):
07/01/2008 --- 07/01/2009 ---'P'
07/02/2009 -- 07/25/2009 ----'N'
07/26/2009 -- 01/01/2010 ---'P'
01/02/2010 -- 01/13/2010 --'N'
01/14/2010 -- 01/18/2010 --'P'
01/19/2010 -- 04/30/2010 -- 'N'
I thought of looping for each day date but that seems to be expensive for online application. Is there any way that I can achieve this requirement with sql query ?
Thanks for your help,

Certainly not the best way to code the requirement, but it does achieve the result you are looking for in a fairly quick time

Entity DATE type attribute : Derieved From SQL Expression for date format

Hi,
I want to set one of the Entity's Date Attribute with specific format , for e.g DD-MM-YYYY
I see a Derieved From SQL Expression checkbox, how can I define the SQL Expression
can I use TO_DATE(EMP_START_DATE,'DD-MM-YYYY'), I want to insert a date in that format, when I am creating a row using viewObject.createRow()
Java Type is oracle.jbo.domain.Date which take YYYY-MM-DD as a string, I do not want to use this format
Thanks,

Here is a solution, but I am sure it is not the best one. It will work in a hurry. Maybe you can create a helper method to generalize this conversion until something more succinct comes along for US:
This code assumes an import of jbo.oracle.domain.Date.
    public void updateDateTest () {
        AddressesViewImpl lVO = (AddressesViewImpl)this.getAddressesView1();
        AddressesViewRowImpl lRow = (AddressesViewRowImpl)lVO.first();
        System.out.println("create date for current record is currently: " +
                           lRow.getCreationDate());
        java.util.Date today = new java.util.Date();
        SimpleDateFormat dateFormat =
            new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MM-yyyy");
        SimpleDateFormat jboDateFormat =
            new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
        String lSampleDateString = "15-04-2010";
        java.util.Date lSampleDate = null;
        try {
            lSampleDate = dateFormat.parse(lSampleDateString);
        } catch (ParseException e) {
            System.out.println("Parsing exception thrown: " + e.getMessage() +
                               "\n ==> caused by \n==>"+ e.getCause().getMessage());
            lRow.setCreationDate(new Date(jboDateFormat.format(lSampleDate)));
        System.out.println("about to commit; create date for current record is currently: " +
                           lRow.getCreationDate());
        this.getDBTransaction().commit();
        System.out.println("resetting to some other date; create date for current record is currently: " +
                           lRow.getCreationDate());
            lRow.setCreationDate(new Date(jboDateFormat.format(today)));
        this.getDBTransaction().commit();
    }I defined this code in my Application Module Impl file and ran it with the BC tester. Here was its output:
Mar 18, 2010 8:27:54 AM oracle.jbo.jbotester.MainFrame main
INFO: BC4J Tester started.
Source breakpoint occurred at line 66 of FusionExperimentsAMImpl.java.
create date for current record is currently: 2009-02-02 12:09:54.0
about to commit; create date for current record is currently: 2010-04-15
resetting to some other date; create date for current record is currently: 2010-04-15I spent a little time looking around the forum for additional solutions. I think several years ago I even wrote a blog entry on this subject. If I remember how to do this right I will amend with more information.
