Export of DATE column not recognized by Excel

SQL DEVELOPER version 2.1.1.64
just installed.
When I export a table to Desktop as XLS or CSV, all the DATE columns show this format:
11-MAY-09 12.00.00.000000000 AM
MicroSoft Excel will not convert this to standard format: MM/DD/YYYY
I changed NLS setting in SQL DEVELOPER for Date and TimeStamp, Excel still does not convert.
Any suggestions?

(1)
export from the context menu on the table's navigator tree node
(2)
export from worksheet result set
(3)
export from table Data tab
All three exports work.
Each DATE column in the export file shows the TIMESTAMP value.
Unfortunately, after the export, when I apply the DATE format inside of Excel using "Format Cells",
the data in the Excel column does not change to MM/DD/YYYY
WHY DOES APPLYING FORMAT INSIDE EXCEL FAIL?
THIS IS MY QUESTION.
(4)
copy the result set from SQL*Developer (CTRL-A, then CTRL-C or CTRL-SHIFT-C) and paste in Excel.
The DATE column shows value in MM/DD/YYYY format and I can change the format.
This works but not for large amounts of data.

I have developed a batch harness whereby all scheduled tasks (W2012) invoke a common powershell script that acts as a wrapper to all our housekeeping jobs.
The first step in the wrapper is to create a Transcript file using following code
if ($Host.name -ne "Windows PowerShell ISE Host") # Transcript does not work within ISE
$timestamp = (get-date -format "yyyy-MM-dd-HH-mm-ss.fff")
$path = "c:\corp\$timestamp" + "_$pid.txt"
Start-Transcript -path $path -append
As expected the folder contains files with timestamp & pid in name

Do I have to code defensively for base Powershell functions?

Date format not recognized -- urgent help needed

Hi,
I'm having a problem when start sqlplus in dos command window. If I start it from C:\oracle\ora81\bin, it won't started and error message showing like 'Date format not recognized' and then come back to DOS.
I do have OWB installed which also has SQLPLUS installed so that there is no problem if I start it from C:\ORACLE\owb92\bin.
For some reason, the path is setting as C:\oracle\ora81\bin before C:\ORACLE\owb92\bin so the default always goes to 81 folder.
If restart the DB instance, and this problem is gone. But it comes back after some application running (our own application and Oracle provided OMBPlus ). We double check our own application, and there is no where to "alter session ...".
Any help will be very appreciatged,
Thanks,
Daming

I'm having a problem when start sqlplus in dos command window. If I start it from C:\oracle\ora81\bin, it won't started and error message showing like 'Date format not recognized' and then come back to DOS.
Do you have a file called 'login.sql' in the folder 'C:\oracle\ora81\bin'? If there is one, is there an 'alter session' command in this file?

How to export the data to Multiple sheet in Excel

Hi,
How can I export the data to multiple sheets in excel using Crystal Report XI.

One of the 3rd-party Crystal report schedulers listed at http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html allows you to burst a report so that each group at level 1 becomes a separate worksheet inside a single workbook.

Date Column not getting sorted in a table in web Dynpro Java

Hi All,
I am facing an issue while sorting the date column in a table in my web dynpro java application.
When the date is displayed in the sql format in tha table, I am able to sort the date column successfully but when we convert the date field from sql format to util format in our table and then sort it does not work.
Kindly let us know the steps to be followed in this case to sort the date column of a table in Simple Date format as we do not want date in the sql format to be displayed.
Thanks & Regards,
Anurag

Hi,
You might want to check whether both your browser's language settings are identical. The browser language could also determine the date format.
As a workaround, you could add an extra attribute to your context, and set the calculated property to 'true'.
In your table, add a new column and bind to this new attribute, and hide your original date column
If you sort using the date column that's hidden now, you could use the calculated field to fixed-format your date the way you prefer (by using the SimpleDateFormatter class for instance)
Cheers,
Robin

ORA-01821: date format not recognized Error in PL/SQL report-4.0

Hi,
I am using Apex 4.0 and i have a Classic report(function returning query) which selects a date column.
The query runs at the backend and gives the output.
But when i run the report on the page, i get the error
report error:
ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-01821: date format not recognizedThe values for the date column are like this 14-MAR-13,01-FEB-13 etc... Everything seems to be right.
But I have no idea why this error occurs.
Thanks
Divya

Aren't these errors annoying! But there's a data / format mismatch for sure. What I need to see -- and what will tell you what is wrong -- is
1) exactly what the data is and
2) exactly what the format string is that is being used to convert it.
The values for the date column are like this 14-MAR-13,01-FEB-13 etc... Question: Is this the source data or the target data ( what it's supposed to look like after being converted)?
Let's start there:
What is the source? Is it a DB column? Is it type date or VARCHAR2 or what?
If VARCHAR2, then give us an example of the data that is failing.
What is the format -- I assume there is one -- being used to convert the data?
Are you doing a TO_CHAR or a TO_DATE?
Give us lots of detail, please. Then it should be easy to solve.
Regards,
Howard

Exporting filterded data from a view to excel

I have a requirement, where i have to export data from a list to excel after applying some filter to it.
Say i filter the view by selecting employee dept="Teaching", now i want to export only the filtered rows to excel.
Is there any way to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can create a view with required filters. Then you can export to excel after switching on to filtered view.Refer following link to create filtered view.

Data column number formatting in Excel

Can I overwrite the formating for the data columns in excel?
For calculation purposes I need 2 decimal places defined for the data columns but when I display I dont want to see the decimals, I want to see the rounded number. But I cannot format this on the excel. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
Hema

Hi,
In the definition of your planquery, go to the properties of your key figure and assign the number of desired figures behind the comma.
-> in your workbook if you click on your cell, you will see the number of figures behind the comma according to your info-object in the formula bar, but in the layout itself it is rounded according to your query settings

Data set created out of csv file: columns not recognized, too many rows

After uploading a csv file I got out of the OPP the columns don't get recognized in the dataset viewer. Perhaps this happens because the delimiter is a semicolon instead of a comma? Unfortunately, I have no influence how the data gets exported out of the OPP. Is there any option to configure which delimiter to recognize, like it's possible in excel?
Further, is it possible to configure from which row on the data should be taken into account, similar to excel? With the csv file I get out of the OPP, the data only starts with row 7, while row 6 has the headings.

The delimiter cannot be configured. Comma is the delimiter. I would suggest that you open this file in text editor then replace semicolon with comma. After that you can reupload your dataset.
Further, is it possible to configure from which row on the data should be taken into account, similar to excel? With the csv file I get out of the OPP, the data only starts with row 7, while row 6 has the headings.
This is not configurable as well.

Data dvd not recognized

Hi
Wonder if anyone can help...
I have recently had a show-reel put together and they have sent me a copy on a data dvd with AVI and MOV files on it. This is so I can burn it and upload it to websites etc.
When I load the disk it doesn't seem to be recognized. There is no icon on the desk top but The iDVD application does automatically open up though, however I can't find the files anywhere.
I have looked in disk utilities and the disk is listed but it wont let me verify it.
Does anyone have any ideas about why this might be and what I can do it about it.
I want to try and burn a couple of copies so any help would be great.
Thanks

Thanks for confirming that Import is correct.
When you say the Capture Scratch folders only hold captured material, does that include Imported material? And if so, when I look in the Capture Scratch folder and see not QT files (as I have seen in the handful of previous projects I have attempted) but small "FCE document files" then I do have some kind of problem, right? I'm just trying to figure out where to start in understanding this, and it seemed to me the external hard drive source was the new variable here; that maybe there was something I had missed in terms of what was required when using the XHD as a source instead of my own camera capture. If that is not the case-- that is, if a QT file is the same whether brought to the system through Capture or found on an HD and imported-- then I have to figure out what I did to screw up the Capture Scratch function. I have not done any render effects. I'm just setting up. I've not done much of this and none at all recently, so operator error is certainly possible. I'll reproduce the export and see if I can refine the settings. Thanks for your patience and thoughtful assistance.

Lightroom 4.1 exported JPEG files are not recognized by Apple Preview App

I just started using Lightroom 4.1 Trial version (coming from Aperture). I exported JPEG versions of some images using an ICC profile. On my iMac running Lion 10.7.5 the pictures do not show a thumbnail, the file on the desktop just shows "JPEG". I could not open the file with the Preview App, but I am able to open it with DPP (Canon software)? Also the file shows that it has 0 x 0 dimentions when I click Get Info even though it is about 25 Megs in size?
The message I get is
"The file “Edit-739820120223Canon EOS 7D.jpg” could not be opened.
It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."
Does anyone know why this is hapening?
Is it a know issue between Adobe and Apple?
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks for help in advance.

25MB is quite a large filesize for a JPG, and this might be either quite a lot of pixels saved at a very "high" quality (not very much compressed), or it may be an extremely large number of pixels saved with medium compression.
While the technical spec of the JPG format imposes an absolute limit on maximum width and height pixel dimensions, some software employs a lower limit above which it considers the file to be invalid. Different programs, different limits, sometimes.
I have encountered this (for example) with pano stitched images using the full resolution of a large number of component shots - where JPG output could not be made, or if made, could not even be viewed as a whole by my standard image viewer (though TIFF was still OK even at still larger sizes).
If Lightroom has been set to a large printed size AND to a high ppi resolution, it is easy to get into very high numbers and very large output files. One should IMO at least question the utility and benefit of using very high ratios of upsampling from a standard digital photo - which may happen in some cases as a result of using the same output settings regardless, when spreading the same data across both small and large scales. If the file that was imported into LR really does provide an unusually high number of pixels expressing lots of detail, then that will better deserve such a capacious output file. Otherwise, each part of the file may merely show a very highly detailed representation, of a very blurry nothing-much-in-particular.
If the JPG has exceeded the viewer's size limits, a reported width and height of 0 may represent an error message, in effect - not actual reality.

Shock, date change, not recognizing components...

Hi all-
Scanned through the topics and didn't find one similar; I'd be grateful for any suggestions as to the cause of my troubles.
I put my ibook G4 to sleep this afternoon, and when I returned to work on it again, I got an electrical shock when I opened the screen.
The machine had shut itself off; when I turned it on, I got a message that the date had been changed to Dec. 13, 1969. Minutes later it stopped recognizing some of it's components (like it's airport card, for instance).
Is this thing fried? A friend had something similar happen, and within hours had nothing but the "sad mac" face with the question mark above its head on her screen. :/

Could be. The ibook should not shock you, I'd take it in for a checkup.
