How do I pull just the year from a date?

I'm trying to pull just the year from a date and cannot figure out how this can be done. I tried the SUBSTR fuction but its not acting how I would expect. What I'm wanting to do is write a condition that says Item Birth Year = Current Year minus 23 I have a calc that figures the age from the difference in the birthdate and current year but I'd really like to just write a condition based just one years. Can this be done?

Hello
SUBSTR will only work on a string. To extract portions of a date you need to use the TO_CHAR command.
To get the year you would use this: TO_CHAR(the_date,'YYYY')
TO_CHAR takes 2 switches, the date to be manipulated and the portion to be extracted, with the portion in single quotes.
Once you get used to manipulating dates like this other common pieces are: DD - extracts the day of the month, MON extracts the 3 character code for the month.
Thus you can use this: TO_CHAR(sysdate,'DD-MON-YYYY') and it will convert the current date, June 7th 2012 to 07-JUN-2012
Hope this helps
Best wishes

How to parse the year from a date.

Hi,
I have the following date format in database.
05-SEP-07
18-OCT-07
18-OCT-07
25-JUL-07
18-OCT-07
What I am trying to do is get only the full year from the date, example
2007
2008
2009
I tried to use extract function but that doesn't work due to ORA-01843: not a valid month.
Thanks in advance.
select extract(year from date '18-OCT-07') from dual;

OK. You got an error using date literal. Did you at least look in documentation on date literals? I guess not, otherwise you'd see that data literal synatx is DATE 'YYYY-MM-DD':
SQL> select extract(year from date '18-OCT-07') from dual;
select extract(year from date '18-OCT-07') from dual
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01843: not a valid month
SQL>
SQL> select extract(year from date '2007-10-18') from dual;
EXTRACT(YEARFROMDATE'2007-10-18')
2007
SQL> SY.
P.S. "I have the following date format in database" is completely wrong dates are always stored in one format - internal date format that stores year, month, day, hour, minute and second. When you select date using client tools like SQL*Plus, SQL Developer, Toad, etc. date is converted to string using either explicit or implicit format where you specify which parts of date you want to see.

Extracting Year from the date field

Hi,
I want to extract year from the date field... I've tried following code but got the error

What error did you get?
maybe your column name is wrong? Is it really A_somthing? This is possible but slightly unusual.
also possible
select extract(Year from sysdate) from dual;

How to get name of the month from current date.

Hi,
How to get the name of the month from current date.
Thanks,
Senthil

Sethil,
Use your date(let us say Date1) instead of sy-datum.
CALL FUNCTION 'MONTH_NAMES_GET'
EXPORTING
LANGUAGE = SY-LANGU
IMPORTING
RETURN_CODE =
TABLES
MONTH_NAMES = itab_month
EXCEPTIONS
MONTH_NAMES_NOT_FOUND = 1
OTHERS = 2
IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
READ TABLE itab_month
WITH KEY MNR = date1+4(2).
itab_month-LTX will contain the value you are looking for
Good luck

In iTunes, why does music which has been ripped from a best-of CD continue to show the year of the CD release even after I change the year to the year of the song release in playlists?

I often rip music from CDs of artists that released songs in the '60s and '70s. When I rip the music, in iTunes it shows the year of the CD release, usually something in the '90s or 2000s. I change the year in 'Get Info' to the correct year, and it changes it fine. However, after a while, it will show the old year again, the year of the CD. This is a problem because I like to arrange playlists based on song years, and this messes with that.
Tell me: is there a way to permanently fix the reverting year problem? Also, when I spot a song that this has happened to, when I click on 'Get Info', the correct ear is still in there, and when I hit 'OK' it changes back. This is really frustrating...

In some cases the original iTunes Store metadata seems to be given preference over personal changes. If you are seeing this then
Go to Edit > Preferences > Store and turn off
Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases
Share details about your library with Apple
On any iOS device go to Settings > Music and turn off
Show All Music
Close and reopen iTunes and/or reset the device and you should see your version of the metadata for each track rather than the original store data. If not it should reset as you play through content, or you can use my script UpdateTagInfo to force iTunes to read the current data from the tags.

How to get multiple values from the list

I've a list of an item which I queried it from the database. I also created a button that will takes a selected items from the list when it was clicked. I used javabean to get the data from database.
<%     // clicked on Select District Button
Vector vselectedDistrict = new Vector();
Vector vdistrictID = new Vector();
String tmpSelectDistrict = "";
tmpSelectDistrict = request.getParameter("bSelectDistrict");
if(tmpSelectDistrict != null)
     // get multiple values from the list
     String[] selectedDistrict = request.getParameterValues("usrTDistrict");
     vselectedDistrict.clear();
     vdistrictID.clear();
     if((selectedDistrict != null) && (selectedDistrict.length != 0))
                       for(int i=0;i<selectedDistrict.length;i++)
               vselectedDistrict.addElement(selectedDistrict);
          vdistrictID = dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
          for(int i=0;i<vdistrictID.size();i++)
               out.println("district = " + selectedDistrict[i]);                         out.println("district ID= " + vdistrictID.get(i).toString());
%>
// get vdistrict from the database here......
<select name="usrTDistrict" size="5" multiple>
<%     for(int i = 0; i< vdistrict.size(); i++)
%>
     <option value="<%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%>"><%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%></option>
<%
%>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="bSelectDistrict" value="Select District">
Lets say the item that i selected from the list is 'Xplace' and I clicked on the Select District button,
what I got is this error message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to convert string 'Xplace' to class java.util.Vector for attribute usrTDistrict: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Property Editor not registered with the PropertyEditorManager
So where is going wrong and what the message means?. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks

These are just guesses that might hopefully steer you in directions you haven't looked in yet.
I presume you used triangle brackets (< >) to avoid having the Jive Forum think it was the "italics" tag?
Are you certain this: dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
expects a Vector as its second parameter? And returns a Vector?
I don't believe you've shown how you use the javabean, or its code? Perhaps it should be rewritten to accept an array of strings instead of a Vector?

[cut]
i am executing an sql query which return a union of
values from two tables.
the problem here is how do i read the values from the
resultset.[cut]
When the error occours?
1) Executing query ?
2) Retrieving the field from the resultSet ?
3) ecc. ?
BTW, first of all, try to execute the query removing the parenthesis
of the two select statement. I know that there are some problem
with the oracle jdbc driver about them.
Hope it helps.

How to get a value from the previous element (XSLT/XPATH gurus ahoy!)

Hi All,
I am building an RTF template for a "letter of reference"-report. Sometimes there are several rows in the data, that need to be printed as one. This is due to consecutive temporary contracts, which will be printed out as one period of service.
Here's a simplified data example to illustrate the problem.
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-1980</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-1988</END_DATE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-1988</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-1990</END_DATE>
</ROW>
<ROW>
<START_DATE>01-01-2000</START_DATE>
<END_DATE>01-01-2005</END_DATE>
</ROW>
With the data above, I should print two lines:
01-01-1980 - 01-01-1990
01-01-2000 - 01-01-2005
I need to compare START_DATE of an element (except for the first one) with the END_DATE of the previous element, to find out whether to print the END_DATE for that element or not. How can I get that value from the previous element?
Thanks & Regards, Matilda
