How to convert exponential data into number for the downloaded excelsheet

Hi
I have downloaded one field data i.e. having char of 50, into excel sheet and it is displaying as exponential in the excel sheet.
The data numbers should display as text only i.e 1236547896321 and not exponential
Is anyone can tell how we can do this
Thanks
Pallavi

Hello Pallvai,
The problem of exponential is with the excel. Excel converts the large numbet into exponential.
To avoid this you can make the number into text then excel won't convert it into exponential.
For that you can do a simple trick. Just prefix a single quote ( ' ) in the field.
eg:
field = 1236547896321.
then,
constants c_quote type c value '''. "<-- single quote
concatenate c_quote field into field.
" This will make the EXCEL to consider this field as text not number and hence it will not be considered
" as exponential.
Hope this solves your problem.

There is no serial number and you don't need one. What you need for a subscription is to SIGN IN within Acrobat, so it knows the subscriptions you own.

How to convert BLOB data into string format.

Hi,
I have problem while converting blob data into string format.
for example,
Select dbms_lob.substr(c.shape.Get_wkb(),4000,1) from geotable c
will get me the first 4000 byte of BLOB .
When i using SQL as i did above,the max length is 4000, but i can get 32K using plsql as below:
declare
my_var CLOB;
BEGIN
for x in (Select X from T)
loop
my_var:=dbms_lob.substr(x.X,32767,1)
end loop
return my_var;
I comfortably convert 32k BLOB field to string.
My problem is how to convert blob to varchar having size more than 32K.
Please help me to resolve this,
Thanx in advance for the support,
Nilesh

Nilesh,
. . . .The result of get_wkb() will not be human readable (all values are encoded into some binary format).

How to convert XML data into binary data (opaque data)

Hi,
I am trying to develop a process that delivers files after reading data from a database.
However, it is required not to deliver the data immediately. We want to perform some checks before the files get written.
So the way we want to design this is,
1. Read data from database (or any other input). The data is in XML format (this is a requirement, as in general, we have xml data)
2. This data is written, opaquely, to a JMS queue that can store binary data, along with what is the filename of the file that would be written (filename is passed using JMS Headers)
3. When required, another process reads the JMS queue's binary data, and dumps into a file
The reason I want to use opaque data while inserting in the JMS queue is, that enables me to develop a single process in Step 3 that can write any file, irrespective of the format.
My questions are
1. How to convert the xml data to opaque data. In BPEL I may use a embedded java, but how about ESB. Any other way....?
2. how to pass filename to the jms queue, when payload is opaque. Can I use a header attribute...custom attributes?
3. Which jms message type is better for this kind of requirement - SYS.AQ$_JMS_BYTES_MESSAGE or SYS.AQ$_JMS_STREAM_MESSAGE

Ana,
We are doing the same thing--using one variable with the schema as the source of the .xsl and assigning the resulting html to another variable--the content body of the email, in our case. I just posted how we did it here: Re: Using XSLT to generate the email HTML body
Let me know if this helps.

How to convert labview data into opc tag

Hi all,
Can any one please tell me how i can convert the labview data global into a OPC tag? I have some data globals reading and writing data to the globals. Now i wanted to use a PLC device to send its outputs to the field.
The PLC device will supports the OPC tags so i wanted t create OPC recognised tags in my labview. Is it possible. I saw that labview also having OPC functinalities. Please any one guide me in doing this.
I will be very thankful to them
Ramme..

As I said, I believe you can do this for globals as well by opening its front panel (double click the global) and using a DS connection for the control that represents that specific global.
As for other alternatives:
NI sells the DSC module which comes with an OPC server and with better tags.
You can use a common protocol like Modbus to interact with the PLC.
You can use the custom protocol used by the PLC.
The last two would require that you would change your program structure, so you would only want to use them under certain conditions.
I believe the practical limit for OPC tags with DS is a few hundred tags, but I never used it myself so I didn't run into it. You can try searching the forums to find out more.
Try to take over the world!

Post the 4 digit Oracle version.
Did you read the Doc for DBMS_LOB.CONVERTTOCLOB? - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B28359_01/appdev.111/b28419/d_lob.htm
The function can convert data from one character set to another. If the source data uses a different character set than the target you need to provide the character set id of the source data.
The blob_csid parameter is where you would provide the value for the source character set.
If the source and target use the same character set then just pass zero. Your code is passing a one.
>
General Notes
You must specify the character set of the source data in the blob_csid parameter. You can pass a zero value for blob_csid. When you do so, the database assumes that the BLOB contains character data in the same character set as the destination CLOB.
>
Same for 'lang_context' - your code is using 1; just use 0. It is an IN OUT
>
lang_context
(IN) Language context, such as shift status, for the current conversion.
(OUT) The language context at the time when the current conversion is done.
This information is returned so you can use it for subsequent conversions without losing or misinterpreting any source data. For the very first conversion, or if do not care, use the default value of zero.

How to convert .MOD files into .DV for iMovie import

I am urgently (and desperately) trying to import some .MOD files into iMovie 09 for editing. They were made on a JVC cam, but I only have them on HDD now. I tried renaming files to .avi, but still cannot import them. I used Handbrake to convert to mp4 files and can import them now, but quality seems to be reduced even though destination file size is similar.
Can anyone tell me how to convert the .MOD files to .DV files easily? I have read about the ffmpeg tool that you can use in the Terminal, but am not confident to do this as have never used Terminal !
Any help and advice would be very much appreciated.

I have a JVC everio 30 GB hard drive video camera and I'm trying to convert the videos as well. Mine are also in mod format and my computer won't convert it either. Should I upgrade to quicktime pro 7 for $30 or just pay $20 for the mpeg-2 add-on? This is for a family camera that is used mainly for occasional family vacations/get together's. No editing, I just want to get these off the camera's hard drive because the hard drive is running out of space and I wanna be able to make them into DVDs so we have a hard copy in case anything happens to my laptop. I'm not sure which is better for my use? The add-on is cheaper but is there other advantages for me to get pro?

How to get webi data into dashboard for non-users of webi.

I need to find a way to get data from a WebIntelligence Report (essentially 3 numbers: Average This Year, Average Last Year and Target This Year (eg, 40, 63, 55)) into a dashboard, where the data is refreshed each day. The resulting dashboard will be published on my external web site where anyone can access it. It is essential that a connection to the webi server is not required, so I can publish the report data to a text file on a network drive and pick it up from there. The data will change daily so this must be reflected in the dashboard.
Webi has no capability of saving to XML, so it's excel, text, csv archive or PDF only.
I have been playing with the "From Text" option in the Data tab, but changes to the data do not show when the .swf file is run. When in dashboard mode, I can click on preview to show the dashboard and the data doesn't change, however when I exit preview, the data is updated in the spreadsheet of the dashboard. It is just never reflected when the dashboard is displayed. I have dicked the refresh ever 1 minute, refresh data when opening the file, overwrite existing cells options in the External Data Range Properties page for the From Text option and am looking at the data via both a Grid object and an Spreadsheet object.
Could anyone please suggest what I am doing wrong, or anything else I may be able to try instead.
Using BO4.1, sp1, p1.
Thanks
Rodney.

How to convert JPEG Files into Streams for Darwin Streaming Server?

Hi!
Is there any possibility to convert JPEG Files locatet in a Folder into a Videostream for the Darwin Streaming Server, like Quicktime Broadcaster does with my iSight Video??? I know I can convert JPEGs into Movies using QuickTime Pro, but that is not exactly what I am seraching for: I have a folder, where some kind of Webcam writes about 5 JPEG pictures per second. Now I would like to have these pictures in converted into a videostream in realtime. QuickTime Broadcaster would be the weapon of choice if it would accept JPEG Files as input...
Is there any posibility to solve this problem??

How can I locate my serial number for the Student and Teacher Edition

All I am trying to do right now is to obtain the serial number for my Student and Teacher (Academic) Edition <removed by moderator>, but I wanted to use my personal (home) e-mail address since this purchase is to be installed on my home computer. The validation process seems to require my work e-mail address or a work id with embossed date (ours had no date and my id is at work). The e-mail prompt indicates that all e-mail correspondence will go to the address I enter so if there is e-mail regarding this installation, on my home computer at my home e-mail address, any such e-mail instructions would then go to my work e-mail address. So how do I obtain my serial number?

I have removed your coupon/product code as this is a public forum. I would recommend reviewing the I have a Student and Teacher edition product section of Find a serial number.
