please help.

Hi Jake,
Using convert date to internal as mentioned by Zafar is a good idea, i don't see how this concerns the no of records, do update the post if you have a special requirement/concerns about using that FM.
Anyways the other way to do it using the offsets,
data: l_data type char10 value '2011.01.01',
l_date2 type char10.
concatenate l_data+0(4) l_data+5(2) l_data+8(2) into l_date2.
or
l_date2+0(4) = l_data+0(4).
l_date2+8(2) = l_data++5(2).
l_date2+8(2) = l_data+8(2).

Chen

Hi,
Instead at end of each line add a constant of type char with length 10. And then do a carriage return. Check if you still get the error.

Suppress Underscore and replace with Space in FR

Hi
Hyperion Financial Reporting 11.1.2.1
In the excel, with a Essbase add-in, we have an option as Suppress--->Underscore Characters
This will eliminate the Underscore and replaces with a space
I want to know if the same functionality exists in the FR Studio
Any insight would be much appreciated
Regards
Tejo jagadeesh

Sorry, I misread your question. I thought it would be doable though Conditional Format: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/fr_user/ch10s02.html
Something like this:
If Member Name > Dimension > contains > _ > Format Cells > Replace >
But then it replaces the whole member with space which I believe is not something you are looking for.
One other option is to have another alias table in your database and select the new alias table in FR. I know this is an option for Essbase. I am not so sure about other db connections.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Find and Replace with space or tab

Hi,
I have a text file that has commas separating values. I saved it as a csv, but am not getting the results I need with the csv file. I'd like to replace the commas with a space or a tab.
I know how to use find replace, but I do not know how to indicate these non-printing characters. I tried the ascii code &#32 for space, but i simply get that string of characters replacing my commas.
ANy help?
Thanks

KW,
You didn't say what program you were using for the Find and Replace, but I'd suggest that Pages would be your best bet. Spaces can be typed-in directly, and several other non-printing characters can be inserted from a drop-down menu.
The Insert drop-down seems to be available only in Pages, as opposed to Numbers and TextEdit.

Replacing unauthorized characters with space

Hi friends,
There is a set of authorized characters. The authorized characters are
abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789<space>
If any character other than these characters should be replaced with space.
For example, "I like foot-ball" should be changed to "I like foot ball"
"Where are you?" should be changed to "Where are you"
"red / blue" should be changed to "red   blue"
I use Oracle 11.2.
Thanks in advance!

Using regular expression you can do this.
SQL> with t
2 as
3 (
4 select 'I like foot-ball' str
5    from dual
6 )
7 select str
8       , regexp_replace(str, '[^a-z0-9[:space:]]', ' ', 1, 0, 'i') new_str
9    from t;
STR              NEW_STR
I like foot-ball I like foot ball

Padded zeros which is removed need to be replaced by spaces

Hi Friends,
My requirement in XI is : Padded zeros which is removed need to be replaced by spaces.
for removing padded zeros I used the UDF:
int i = Integer.parseInt(a);
return (Integer.toString(i));
It is working fine.
Please help as how to go abt in coding : whatever zeros get taken off , need to be replaced with spaces.
Thanks in Advance,
Meghna.

Hi Raj,
According to the logic given by Henrique, its working. But the point to the noted is that :
The number of spaces need to be equal to the number of zeros removed, where it not happening in this case.for the below Ex when applied it returned ' 12345' instead of ' 12345'.
For ex. source field is '000012345' then the target field need to be ' 12345'.
the Type declared in the data type for the receiver field is integer with length 15.
Is it possible to move the field value to the right justified, so the the padded zeros code when applied will automatically load spaces.Becoz the code written for removing zeros contains String due to which it is left justified i think.
The code written for removing zeros is :
int i = Integer.parseInt(a);
return (Integer.toString(i));
please suggest in this regard.
Regards,
Meghna.

Replace multiple space characters with a single space

Hi,
Oracle 11g R2.
Looking for a way to replace multiple space characters in a row with a single space. For example, the text "abc abc" should look like "abc abc". I tried toying with replace, but it only works for the case of 2 spaces. Need a solution for the cases where there could be 2 or more spaces.
select replace(column1, chr(32)||chr(32), chr(32)) from tablea

Hi,
If you had to do this without regular expressions, you could use:
SELECT REPLACE ( REPLACE ( REPLACE (str, ' ', '~ ')
                 , ' ~'
          , '~ '
          )     AS new_str
FROM    table_x;assuming there is some sub-string (I used '~' above) that never occurs right next to a space.
However, unless you're uisng Oracle 9 (or earlier, which you're not doing) you don't have to do this without regular expressions. As you can see, the way Solomon showed is much simpler.

Replacing # with blank space in Bex Analyser

Hi All,
Can any one help me out in replacing # values in Bex analyser with blank space.
I tried with the macro:
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
' First Query in the workbook
If queryID = "SAPBEXq0001" Then
' Selects the area where the report query is rendered
resultArea.Select
'Replace "" with 0
Selection.Cells.Replace What:="", Replacement:="0", LookAt:=xlWhole, _ SearchOrder:=xlByRows, MatchCase:=False, MatchByte:=True
End If
End Sub
Means I have include the macro to the Excel, but still it is not working.
If this macro is the correct solution, then may be I am not using it properly(in the sense I'm not calling with proper syntax).
Please provide me with the solutiuon to get rid of this problem.

Hi,
We are using BEX 7.0.
I got a macro code which is working. The code is as follows.
Dim resultArea As Range
Set resultArea = varname(1)
Dim c As Range
For Each c In resultArea.Cells
If c.Value = "#" Then c.Value = " "
Next c
This works fine but the problem is that this macro code should be added each and every time when the query is run.
Can any one suggest me where the code can be added in Bex Analyzer itself, so that when the query is run the above macro runs along with it and removes the #.
Thanks and Regards,
Geetha.

Replacing multiple spaces with another character

i need to replace multiple spaces with another char in a string
my code is
Dim text as String="a bit much a little much" Dim arr As String() = text.Split({" "c}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)Dim newtext As String = String.Join(" ", arr) MsgBox(newtext)
it returns to "a bit much a little much "
But i want to replace only long spaces with "=" as "a bit much =a little much"
How can i do that?

This version uses two spaces to split the string and then trims any additional single spaces. It returns "a bit much = a little much".
Dim text As String = "a bit much a little much "
Dim parts() As String = text.Split({" "}, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries)
Dim newText As String
If parts.Length = 2 Then
newText = parts(0).Trim & " = " & parts(1).Trim
End If

Preventing Discoverer Admin replacing underscores with spaces on refresh

Hello,
On refreshing a Business Area, Discoverer Administrator will automatically replace underscores with spaces for any new items/folders to be incorporated. I would prefer this not to happen i.e. the names should retain the underscores. I haven't found any way to do this from within Discoverer Admin - are there some registry settings that I can tweak or is it just not possible,
Thanks in anticipation,
Kevin.

Hi,
Well, you could try using a eul_trigger$refresh_new_column trigger. I must admit I have never tried this, but the details are in the documentation (http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B13916_04/appendix_b.htm#sthref2417).
