Error with Interactive Report Query

Question

Hi,
using apex 4.1 on 11.2.0.1
i have the following query in an IR:
select     *
from     v_dialer_egn
where dtstart between :P200_STARTDATE and  :P200_ENDDATEwhen i submit the query,the following error returns:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message: [FreeTDS][SQL Server]Operand type clash: text is incompatible with datetime[FreeTDS][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared. ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from DIVOSECCv_dialer_egn is defined as:
CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW V_DIALER_EGN
   DTSTART,
   AGENTNUMBER,
   AGENTNAME,
   STRCALLEDNUMBER,
   CAMPAIGNNAME,
   CALLSTATUS,
   NDURATIONSEC,
   NSPEAKDURSEC,
   NEXTRAWORKDURATIONSEC,
   CALLTRIES
AS
   SELECT "dtstart" AS dtstart,
          "agentnumber" AS agentnumber,
          "agentname" AS agentname,
          "strcallednumber" AS strcallednumber,
          "campaignname" AS campaignname,
          "callstatus" AS callstatus,
          "ndurationsec" AS ndurationsec,
          "nspeakdursec" AS nspeakdursec,
          "nextraworkdurationsec" AS nextraworkdurationsec,
          "calltries" AS calltries
     FROM v_ora_dialer_egn@divosecc;the query works on sqlplus/toad/sqldeveloper
desc v_dialer_egn shows that dtstart is a date column.
if i remove the where clause, the query is accepted by apex.
v_ora_dialer_egn@divosecc is a view on mssql (v 10.x)
connected using freetds and unixodbc

Answer 1

I think you , using a Sql Server Database, have to convert the two text fields (:P200_STARTDATE , :P200_ENDDATE).
Check this conversions and let me know if it works:

edit: Something like:
SELECT *
FROM V_DIALER_EGN
WHERE DTSTART BETWEEN CONVERT(DATETIME,:P200_STARTDATE, 103) AND CONVERT(DATETIME,:P200_ENDDATE, 103)Edited by: Vitor Rodrigues on 17/Fev/2012 14:37
