Hijri Date (arabian calendar)

Gentlemen:
i'm desinging a databse schema for arabic data
is there a new data type for hijri arabian mothes?
or i should use varchar2 (text) data type
is there a ready sotred procedures for that or what?

I am no quite sure if I understood your question. But you can just use the regular DATE datatype, if you need to store dates into the database. Use the NLS_CALENDAR parameter (set using ALTER SESSION or an an environment variable) to switch between the different Calendar systems including Arabic Hijrah.

that *is* a ready to use convertor. to convert the islamic
calendar dates to
gregorian (well to cf datetime objects) you use the
i18nDateParse function. you
can ignore the rest of the methods in that CFC (though if you
deal w/this sort
of thing once, you'll likely deal with it again). the only
tricky bit is knowing
if the original islamic dates are based on civil or religious
calendars.

Gregorian-Hijri Dates Converter

Hello Experts;
I am looking for ABAP Report/Function module for "Gregorian <=> Hijri Dates Converter".
Any assistance in this regards would be highly appriciated and points will be rewarded.
Looking forward for your usual prompt and professional advice...
Best Regards,
Aslam
You may ask... What is Hijri Calender?
<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijri">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijri</a>
The Islamic calendar or Muslim calendar (also called "Hijri calendar", Arabic) is the calendar used to date events in many predominantly Muslim countries, and used by Muslims everywhere to determine the proper day on which to celebrate Islamic holy days. It is a lunar calendar having 12 lunar months in a year of about 354 days. Because this lunar year is about 11 days shorter than the solar year, Islamic holy days, although celebrated on fixed dates in their own calendar, usually shift 11 days earlier each successive solar year, such as a year of the Gregorian calendar. Islamic years are also called Hijra years because the first year was the year during which the Hijra occurred Muhammad's emigration from Mecca to Medina. Thus each numbered year is designated either H or AH, the latter being the initials of the Latin anno Hegirae (in the year of the Hijra).

How to display hijri date..

hi everyone!
can someone tell how to convert georgian date into hijri date...
and if the date is some old date....
thanks and regards
Tariq.

Here are a few things you might need to know.
1.How to set Calendar to "Arabic Hijrah" ?
2.How to display both Hijrah and Gregorian dates in the same select statement?
3.What is Calendar Deviation?
4.How to set deviation?
Questions & Answers
1.How to set Calendar to "Arabic Hijrah" ?
Answer
Set NLS_CALENDAR parameter in one of the following ways:
1. In the Current session :
SQL> alter session set NLS_CALENDAR="Arabic Hijrah" ;
2. All applications for a specific client:
Set NLS_CALENDAR Variable in client OS environment.
<e.g: On NT: set variable in the registry
On Unix: set UNIX environment variable in .profile/.cshrc>
3. Within SQL function:
SQL> select to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''arabic hijrah''')
from dual ;
References
<Note:30772.1>
2.How to display both Hijrah and Gregorian dates in the same select statement?
Answer
select
to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''arabic hijrah'''),
to_char(sysdate,'day dd month yyyy','nls_calendar=''gregorian''')
from dual ;
References
<bug:1302683>
3.What is Calendar Deviation?
Answer
Since Hijrah month is based on the moon complete revolution around the sun, Hijrah
Calendar has different number of days in a year than Gregorian; therefore some manual
deviation adjustement might be needed for the conversion to/from Gregorian. In other
words HIJRAH calendar is Lunar based, corrections need to be made every so often.
4.How to set deviation?
Answer
1. Shutdown the database
2. Edit lxecal.nlt (lxecal.dat in Oracle7) in $ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls.
e.g: to add one day after Sep-29-2000:
DEFINE calendar
calendar_name = "Arabic Hijrah"
DEFINE calendar_deviation
deviation_data = {
<"Sep-29-2000 ad">:1
ENDDEFINE calendar_deviation
ENDDEFINE calendar
Note: Gregorian date specified in the deviation should correspond to one of
29th, 30th or 31th days of the hijrah calendar.
3. Run the NLS Calendar Utility lxegen to register your modification to Oracle calendar
system, this utility generates lxecalah.nlb file in the same directory mentioned above.
4. startup the database.
The same procedure can be followed to subtract days, but number specified in the
deviation_data should be greater than 10.
<e.g: 11 --> subtract one day, 12 --> subtract two days ...etc>

Hope this helps

Get date from Calendar Promt

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to get date from Calendar Prompt when operator is "greater then or equal to". In this setting I can not set presentation variable for prompt, why? There is other way to get selected date?
Thanks in advance for any suggestion
Regards,
Esk

Regards,
EskThe reason the Set Variable piece disappears is because a presentation variable cannot contain multiple values. If you want to perform a calculation on a date to filter your report, do this:
1) Keep the Operator as "is equal to/is in."
2) Now set your PV to what you want.
3) In your report, build a CASE statement or use the TIMESTAMPADD function to make whatever calculation you want.
Example: Let's suppose you wanted to filter your report for all Sales Dates "greater than or equal to" the prompt selection. You would set the date prompt to "equal" a date a user selects and then save it to your Presentation Variable, say pv_SalesDate.
Now in your report on your Sales Date column, put a filter like this:
tablename."Sales Date" >= '@{pv_SalesDate}'
This will achieve what you are looking for.

I have a 4s...today, for no apparent reason, I am missing data including, calendar appts, notes, contacts and maybe other things that I am not aware of right now. I did nothing to cause this. Any ideas on how to restore?

I seem to have lost a significant amount of data from calendars (ll appts are gone), notes (a good percentage are gone) and contacts (more than 50% are gone). I have done nothing to cause this. Any ideas how I might restore everything?

try turning the phone off and then back on it worked for me.

I would like to mark data on my iPhone / iPad as private or hide it. Is it possible? I could do it on my Palmpilot. Any data - addresses, calendar entries, files, anything could be hidden on the palm pilot. It'd be great to see this facility on apl pdts

I would like to mark data on my iPhone / iPad as private or hide it and only unlock it with a different password. Is it possible? I could do it on my Palmpilot. Any data - addresses, calendar entries, files, anything could be hidden on the palm pilot. It'd be great to see this facility on apple products.

I know what you meant. As I said, it's not possible to do so on the iPhone. Of course Apple could add such a feature to a future version of iOS, it's only software, but so far they haven't. You can suggest such a feature to Apple here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

Display in a date picker (calendar)

Hello,
I have a date picker when i press a button, to choose a date from calendar. But some months are displayed with the year too, like November 2009, June 2009, and in this image i uploaded, in case of September only the month is displayed.. i don't know why the year does not appear. And not just in case of September, but December too.
Any help?
Thanks!
I use Developer 2000 (Forms 5)
Edited by: Roger22 on 22.09.2009 09:39

Maybe it is just because there is no space enough to display both month and year. Is it possible to increase the width of the calendar box ?
