Forms6i - Search by hours, or minutes in Date Format.

Hi All:
Is it possible to search by hours,minutes, or seconds in the date format? I've tried the below SQL but it doesn't work.
SELECT to_char(start_date, 'MM/DD/YY HH24:MI:SS') start_date
FROM table_name
WHERE start_date like '%05%';
It returns no rows selected instead of the following rows.
09/11/02 05:27:33
09/11/02 05:27:35
Please help.
Thanks in advance,

Add hours and minutes to date

Hi,
I need to write a function which has two input parameters.
Parameter1 => Date data type, value is in GMT.
Parameter1 => String value which indicates the time offset and it has the following format.
GMT(sign)HH24Mi
for examples:
GMT+400 , GMT-1400
I need add the offset (param2) to the date (param1) and returns as the output.
I wrote a simple code but can't get it to work. I would like to know if there is an another way to do it.
create or replace
Function         F_FUNCTION_NAME(dt date,timeZoneOffset   in   varchar2)
return date
As
    offset varchar2(9);
Begin
    Offset := (To_Char(Substr(Substr(Timezoneoffset,4),0,Length(Substr(Timezoneoffset,4))-2)||':'||Substr(Substr(Timezoneoffset,4),-2)));
    return Dt + interval Offset hour to minute;
End;Thank You.

Hi Sajeeva,
this will work with your input, however GMT can range only from GMT-1200 to GMT+1400. Values out of this range will not work.
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS';
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_function_name (dt DATE
, timezoneoffset IN VARCHAR2               )
   RETURN DATE
AS
   offset VARCHAR2 (9) := REGEXP_REPLACE (timezoneoffset, 'GMT(\+|-)([0-9]{1,2})([0-9]{2})', '\1\2:\3');
BEGIN
   RETURN CAST (FROM_TZ (CAST (dt AS TIMESTAMP), 'GMT') AT TIME ZONE offset AS DATE);
EXCEPTION
   WHEN OTHERS
   THEN
      RETURN NULL;
END;

1 row selected.The problem on the last row is related to Oracle not accepting the time zone and throwing this error:

The time when the PI doc is counted ,I want see the hour and minutes ,

HI experts ,
How can I find when the physical inventory doc had been created ,counted and posted , by hour and minutes , the date is not enough .
Thanks in advance .

we use MI31 for create Physical inventory doc.
as a matter of fact , what I most want to know is when the count quantity is entered by hour and minutes , because the book quantity in the Physical inventory doc is extract from MBEW table when the count quantity is first entered.After that the book quantity never updated . So it's necessary to konw the exact time when the count quantity is entered , then we can do the right analysis of physical inventory difference.

Strange date format in iPhoto

When I migrated to Maverick, the date format for all my pictures went batty. For example, the date will show as 43-6-569 or 85-65-741. I tried adjusting the date manually but it doesn't solve the problem. I thought migrating to Yosemite would fix this but the issue has actually spread to itunes. Now the "Date added" column for all the songs also shows this strange format.
Has anybody seen this issue? Is there a fix?
Thanks.

I have it on automatic date setting, using a 24-hour clock. The date format in the Language and Region tab is the typical dd/mm/yy. I double checked every other settings. But I don't think it's a problem with the System Preferences as the date in the manu bar is correct, as is for every other application. The issue is only with iphote and now iTunes.

How can I get max, min & average (hours with minutes) of fast 30 days data

Table name:
run_log
TYPE VARCHAR2(10),
SUBTYPE VARCHAR2(10),
PROGRAM VARCHAR2(100),
STATUS VARCHAR2(20),
START_TIME      DATE,
END_TIME      DATE
How can I get max, min & average (hours with minutes) of fast 30 days data ?

Hi,
you have to use analytical functions:
SELECT start_day,
       round(AVG(daily_avg)
             over(ORDER BY start_day ASC RANGE BETWEEN INTERVAL '30' DAY preceding AND INTERVAL '0' DAY following)) AS moving_avg,
       round(MAX(daily_max)
             over(ORDER BY start_day ASC RANGE BETWEEN INTERVAL '30' DAY preceding AND INTERVAL '0' DAY following)) AS moving_max,
       round(MIN(daily_min)
             over(ORDER BY start_day ASC RANGE BETWEEN INTERVAL '30' DAY preceding AND INTERVAL '0' DAY following)) AS moving_min
FROM (SELECT trunc(t.start_time) start_day,
               AVG((t.end_time - t.start_time) * 24 * 60 * 60) AS daily_avg,
               MAX((t.end_time - t.start_time) * 24 * 60 * 60) AS daily_max,
               MIN((t.end_time - t.start_time) * 24 * 60 * 60) AS daily_min
          FROM run_log
         GROUP BY trunc(t.start_time)) t
ORDER BY 1 DESCAnalytical functions are described in the Oracle doc "Data Warehousing Guide".

How do you calculate difference in time (hours and minutes) between 2 two date/time fields?

Have trouble creating formula using FormCalc that will calculate difference in time (hours and minutes) from a Start Date/Time field and End Date/Time field.
I am using to automatically calculate total time in hours and minutes only of an equipment outage based on a user entered start date and time and end date and time.
For example a user enters start date/time of an equipment outage as 14-Oct-12 08:12 AM and then enters an end date/time of the outage of 15-Oct-12 01:48 PM. I need a return that automatically calculates total time in hours and minutes of the equipment outage.
Thanks Chris

Hi,
In JavaScript you could do something like;
var DateTimeRegex = /(\d\d\d\d)-(\d\d)-(\d\d)T(\d\d):(\d\d)/;
var d1 = DateTimeRegex.exec(DateTimeField1.rawValue);
if (d1 !== null)
var fromDate = new Date(d1[1], d1[2]-1, d1[3], d1[4], d1[5]);
var d2 = DateTimeRegex.exec(DateTimeField2.rawValue);
if (d2 !== null)
var toDate = new Date(d2[1], d2[2]-1, d2[3], d2[4], d2[5]);
const millisecondsPerMinute = 1000 * 60;
const millisecondsPerHour = millisecondsPerMinute * 60;
const millisecondsPerDay = millisecondsPerHour * 24;
var interval = toDate.getTime() - fromDate.getTime();
var days = Math.floor(interval / millisecondsPerDay );
interval = interval - (days * millisecondsPerDay );
var hours = Math.floor(interval / millisecondsPerHour );
interval = interval - (hours * millisecondsPerHour );
var minutes = Math.floor(interval / millisecondsPerMinute );
console.println(days + " days, " + hours + " hours, " + minutes + " minutes");
This assumes that the values in DateTimeField1 and DateTimeField2 are valid, which means the rawValue will be in a format like 2009-03-15T18:15

How to sum hours which is varchar2 data type in oracle

Hi My table is like this
emp_ngtshthrs (empno number(10),nightshifthrs varchar2(20));
now I want sum employee nightshifthrs how to do sum of hrs, this is my hours data 01:00,05:00,08:00,10:00,07:00 and 09:00
I want sum the varchar2 type of hours how to do it? and I want to display even the sum is more than 24:00 hrs

Well, first you have posted your question in the wrong forum. You should have posted your question in the PL/SQL forum.
The second problem I see is that you are being too generic when you have your employees enter their night shift hours worked. If you are able, I recommend you modify your table to record hours seperately from minutes and make the columns of type NUMBER instead of type VARCHAR2(). Then you can use simply arithmatic to total the hours and minutes worked.
If you are locked into your table and can't change it, then you can convert the characters to numbers and then perform your summary arithmatic on the values. For example:
1 with tab1 as (
2 select 10 as empno, '01:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
3 select 10 as empno, '05:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
4 select 10 as empno, '08:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
5 select 10 as empno, '10:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
6 select 10 as empno, '07:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
7 select 10 as empno, '09:00' as nightshifthrs from dual)
8 select sum(to_number(replace(nightshifthrs,':','.'))) AS hours_worked
9* from tab1
SQL> /
HOURS_WORKED
40
SQL> Of course, if your users can and do enter minutes, then that complicates the example I provided. You will have to convert the minutes to decimal, sum the amount, then convert the decimal back to time and add this to your hours. For example:
1 with tab1 as (
2 select 10 as empno, '01:15' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
3 select 10 as empno, '05:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
4 select 10 as empno, '08:30' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
5 select 10 as empno, '10:00' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
6 select 10 as empno, '07:45' as nightshifthrs from dual union all
7 select 10 as empno, '09:00' as nightshifthrs from dual)
8 select sum(to_number(substr(nightshifthrs,1,2))) + SUM(to_number(SUBSTR(nightshifthrs,4,5)))/60
9* from tab1

HOURS_WORKED

Numbers of hours in two different dates

I have two days and it is in df = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss") format.
start date is 20041203180000 ( year, month, day of month, hours, minutes )
end date is 20041204050000
How do I calculate the number of hours between those two days.
Thanks

I think this would work (I was bored)...
public static int getCountBetween(Date d1, Date d2, int field) {
   if(d1 == null || d2 == null) {
      throw new NullPointerException();
   if(d1 == d2 || d1.equals(d2)) {
      return 0;
   if(d1.after(d2)) {
      Date dx = d1;
      d1 = d2;
      d2 = dx;
   Calendar c1 = new GregorianCalendar();
   c1.setTime(d1);
   Calendar c2 = new GregorianCalendar();
   c2.setTime(d2);
   int count = 0;
   while(c1.before(c2)) {
      c1.roll(field, 1);
      count++;
   return count;
}That's pretty generic,... field would be Calendar.MONTH or Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY or whatever field. It's probably not as quick as other ways...

How do I convert time from hours and minutes to decimal time

I am making a spread sheet a work for payroll. I need to make a formula that converts the time from hours and minutes to decimal time. Please help

Hi Taryn,
I can't see much from the photo, but I assume your formula is similar to the one I've used below:
The same formula is used in F4 and F6, and both return the same result (shown in F4).
F4 was left on "automatic" cell format, and the column widened to accomodate the repeating decimal to the point where Numbers would begin displaying zeros.
F6 was formatted as shown in the Cell Inspector to show only two decimal places.
Neither of these is an "exact" decimal, as it is not possible to use a decimal fraction to "exactly" represent 1/6 (or 10/60).
The likely reasons for yours showing a whole number of hours is a difference between your formula and the one shown in the example here, or a difference in the number of decimal places set in the cell's format.
Regards,
Barry

Hour and minut in table

Hi!
I'd like to display hour and minute (HH:mm) in my table, inserted like this Date d = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm").parse("14:04");,
but it displays whole date like "Mon Jul 12 14:04:00 CET 2010". How can I make it to display my format?

java.util.Date only contains only the number of milliseconds since midnight 1/1/1970 (the epoch). It contains no formatting information so once converted to a Date the format of the original is lost. java.util.Data has a toString() method which prints out in a standard Locale specific format. If you want any other format then use a SimpleDateFormat to create a String representation.
P.S. I would never use a java.util.Date object to hold a time difference (other than a time relative to the epoch).

Convert "x milliseconds" to "A days B hours C minutes D seconds"

I'm trying to find an elegant way to convert:
"X milliseconds" pattern to "A days B hours C minutes D seconds"
Currently, I use multiplication and division to get the desired result.
But I was investigating if there's a way to do this using java class?
Thanks in advance for the help

What is your definition of a "day" and what other requirements are there? What does this hope to accomplish? If you define a day as 24 hours and couldn't care less about it's corrolation with a calendar then you're not talking about a Date anymore. The best way to accomplish that is probably to use division, which you said is what you're currently doing. If you actually want to calculate when something occurred on a calendar or how many calendar days, weeks, months or years have elapsed since then that's another matter entirely. You might store the time when it started and use that with a Calendar, or you might simply get the current time and subtract the elapsed time to find how long ago that was on a calendar.
You really needed to give more details, but at this point you've got an answer to just about every possibility.
