Help convert date please

I have 3 possible length Dates stored in a VARCHAR2 field type, I am trying to convert that for a friend:
we are looking for this in the End as either a Date or a Number field or both (that's what is needed)
20110829 YYYYMMDD
what I have is these distinct length type on the field:
8
07/13/13
9
6/30/2012
10
10/13/2011
Can someone help me convert this field to either number: 20120512 or Date YYYYMMDD ? both examples would help too :- ) learning

You can use the below to find the problem date(s) in your table. The SELECT obviously needs to be updated with your table/column names
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION dateconvert(p_chardate VARCHAR2)
RETURN VARCHAR2
AS
v_date DATE;
BEGIN
v_date := TO_DATE(p_chardate, 'MM/DD/RR');
RETURN 'OK';
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN
RETURN p_chardate;
END;
SELECT datecol
FROM datetable
WHERE dateconvert(datecol) != 'OK';

I need help converting date interger in string.

I am a beginner if you can even say that..... But to the point I'm using Dreamweaver and I'm pulling data from my database and it's being displayed on my webpage. Currently the code below pulls the month from the database as a number. I would like it to pull the date and change it from a number to it corresponding abbreviated month. ( ie. if it pulls 12-01-11 I need the 12 to be displayed as DEC on my website.) any help is much appreciated.
<?php echo $row_frt_summary['month']; ?>

You can do it either in SQL or PHP,
For MySQL, use the date_format function with the %b specifier: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/date-and-time-functions.html#function_date-format
For PHP, use date_fomat with the M format character: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.date-format.php
Also, PHP, SQL and application development questions should be posted in the app dev forum.

Need help in converting date format

Hi,
Need help in converting date format from 'DD-MON-YYYY' to 'YYYY-MM-DD' in an .rtf template as I believe xml publisher supports the date format as 'YYYY-MM-DD' only.
Thanks,
Raj.

I got the same problem, anyone know how to solve this problem? I allready found some date functions on http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2008/09/date_functions.html . I also tried <?xdoxslt:month_name(xdoxslt:get_month(xdofx:substr(NEED_BY_DATE, 4,3)), $_XDOLOCALE), 0, 'nl-NL')?>, but then it returns a namespace error (Caused by: oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Namespace prefix 'xdofx' used but not declared.). Anyone know how to fix this?

How can I convert date in FOX (from DEC to date[DEC])

Hi everyone!
In my planning layout I have a field called "MYDATE" of the date-type "DEC: Calculation or amount field with comma and +/- sign" (-> BPS does not allow using DATS as date-type).
Since I import that date from a different system, I have to use a temporary workaround field "WADATE" (WorkaroundDate) of type DEC (alternatively integer or float) which contains the date in a format YYYYMMDD (e.g. 20070604).
How can I transfer the date from WADATE to MYDATE? I tried using FOX, but for some reason it does not work. When I use the following function, MYDATE remains empty:
DATA TMPDATE TYPE F.
DATA MYPROJECTS TYPE B906_PROJ.
FOREACH MYPROJECTS.
"MYDATE" is the field I want my date in
"WADATE" is my workaround field that contains the date
TMPDATE = {WADATE,000,0000000001,0000000001,001}.
BREAK-POINT.
{MYDATE,000,0000000001,0000000001,001} = TMPDATE.
ENDFOR.
Is it possible to solve my problem with FOX? Or do I have to work with an EXIT function?
Best regards, Daniel

Daniel,
The better approach is the one Marc said but if you have tomake a work around work, I think you might need to try and define your temporary date variable as String and another for the converted date as of type of the final date. I would not define any date type as float unless you can have part days and it is very important to have part days, integer might work by I would try String first myself.
It has been a while but on a BW 3.5 project I had to do some manipulation to read the attribute value of material master data to get the launch date and use it to derive the start period (definited as type 0FISCPER) and proportion of month based on number of days remaining after launch date vs the # of days for the month. I think I used string type function in FOX to derive some of the component...
Hope this helps,
mary

Crystal Data Conversion Issue (Error converting data type varchar to datetime)

Hi,
I can run stored procedure without error in SQL Server using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
I can also run Crystal Report after connecting to Stored procedure without error on my desktop using my personal credentials as well as database credentials.
But when I upload the crystal report in BOBJDEV and when I run using database credentials report fails saying that "Error in File ~tmp1d1480b8e70fd90.rpt: Unable to connect: incorrect log on parameters. Details: [Database Vendor Code: 18456 ]" but I can run the crystal report successfully on BOBJDEV using my personal credentials.
I googled (Data Conversion Error Message) about this issue & lot of people asked to do "Verify Database" in Crystal Report. So I did that, but when I do it I am getting a error message like this:
Error converting data type varchar to datetime.
Where do you think the error might be occurring? Did anyone faced this kind of issue before? If so, how to resolve it?
(FYI, I am using Crystal Reports 2008, & for stored procedure I have used SSMS 2012 )
Please help me with this issue.
Thanks & Regards.
Naveen.

hello Naveen,
since the report works fine in the cr designer / desktop, we need to figure out where you should post this question.
by bobjdev do you mean businessobjects enterprise or crystal reports server? if so please post this question to the bi platform space.

Need Help with data type conversion

Hello People,
I am new to java, i need some help with data type conversion:
I have variable(string) storing IP Address
IPAddr="10.10.103.10"
I have to call a library function which passes IP Address and does something and returns me a value.
The problem I have is that external function call in this library excepts IP Address in form of a byte array.
Here is the syntax for the function I am calling through my program
int createDevice (byte[] ipAddress).
now my problem is I don't know how to convert the string IPAddr variable into a byte[] ipAddress to pass it through method.

Class InetAddress has a method
byte[] getAddress() You can create an instance using the static method getByName() providing the IP address string as argument.

Convert data in the text file to table in DBL

Hi guys
I wanted to convert data in text file which are in multiple rows and columns in DBL format to a table to b seen in labview as DBL format.
I had tried looking and working at the example but in vain , i just cant produce anything
pls help. or write me a short example..thanks

Are you dealing with a table or an array. For an array, just use the Read spreadsheet file from the File I/O palette.
For a table, you will have to convert the number to a string and setting the appropriate precision and width, then write the 2-D string array to the table.

Syntax error while doing Convert data in LSMW

Hi experts,
      I am using direct input method for uploading customer master records. After display read data step, when i click Convert data button, i get a runtime error saying that:
      the data object "LEGACY_CUSTOMER_MASTER" has no component called "OLD_CUST_NO", but there is a component called "SAP_CUST_NO".
    But actually we do not need OLD_CUST_NO field, so i did not include it while maintaining source fields. Someone plz help. I urgently need to resolve this.
Thanks.

Hi ,
I think you have declared the filed old_cust_no in the maintain field mapping step may be in global declaration or in the mapping section of hte field. Without the use of filed OLD_CUST_NO you wont get the syntax error. Check the sysntax error in field mapping step and delete the unwanted field.Check the filed mapping section carefully based on the error.
Thanks.

How to convert date format(mm/dd/yy) into dd-mm-yy

I want to convert date format(mm/dd/yy) into dd-mm-yy
like 12/23/06 into 23-sep-06

hey, you can use SimpleDateFormat to format your date. this is sample code, maybe could help you.
class dateFormat
     public static void main(String[] args)
          Date now = new Date();
          System.out.println("Before format : "+now);
          SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat( "dd-MM-yy" );//Change your date format in here.
          String display = sdf.format(now);
          System.out.println("After format : "+display);
}If you already understand about my sample code, i think it's easy to make your own date format. Just modified few line of my code.

Reg: Convert Data in LSMW

Hi,
Upload Purchase Order data using multiple flat file through LSMW

After that enter into the convert Data it will ask the Transaction Number.
I didn't understand what's related Transaction Number.
I tried to enter the some values it will show the error like "Use Date format in the user master". After that i tried to enter the date formate but it's not working and shows blank .
Please anybody help me regarding this transaction number
Thanks & Regards.
Edited by: Praveen SatyaSai on Dec 28, 2011 3:28 PM

If you leave it empty, all your records will be converted. If you enter 1, the first set of records (or transaction) will be converted.
basically, you can use it to only convert a specific set of data (or transaction).
