How to remove a newline character from a column

hi all...
i have a column in a table in which some of the datas contain a newline character at their last.
i need to remove those newline characters.
for example.... a data is
'abcd
(notice the end of the quotation).....i need to get the data as...'abcd'
plss help me...
thanks in advance..

thanks for ur reply...
i got your point..but here what you have done is....u have inserted a particular character set in between 'abcd' and 'xyz' and afetr that just replaced those character set by null....
but in my case the problem is a bit different...
the datas are already present and what i have to do is to remove the newline spaces from the end of the datas.
select replace(column_name,'<what shall i put here>',null) from table_name;
in your example...that is 'chr(10)'...but in my case its a newline character....

Query Designer - how to count distinct characteristic values in a column

Hello Experts,
I need to count the number of distinct occurences in a column and use it later for a percentage calculation. I'll give you a concrete example:
Promotion_ID Product Promoted
A ****************** P1 ******** 1
A ****************** P2 ******** 0
A ****************** P3 ******** 1
B ****************** P1 ******** 0
B ****************** P3 ******** 1
C
D
A promotion ID can have more than 1 product associated with it. A product can be promoted (1) or not. A promotion_ID can be also empty (no products C and D)
I need to calculate for each product the percentage of promotions where the product is promoted out of ALL promotions (4) or
P1 25 %
P2 0 %
P3 50%
How can I model this in the Query Designer ? How can I count the distinct Promotion_IDs ?
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Thanks
Rado

Hi Gurus! how to count number of records in any column of ALV Grid report

Hi Guys!
I want to know how can we count the number of records in any column selected by the user. Like for oe customer there might be 20 sale order that means for 10 customer there will be 200 Sale order. So if i select cutomer number column ti should give 10 out put and whern select sale order it should give 200 as output.
-Anurag Jain

Hi,
Either you can use the hotspot_click event or double_click to show the Pop-up info of the Sales Order count or customer Count depending on the selection.
In the hotspot_click event method you have E_ROW_ID E_COLUMN_ID..using these you can find the Sales Ordert or customer Number.. Loop the internal table and find the Count.
In the double_click event method you have E_ROW E_COLUMN..using these you can find the Sales Ordert or customer Number.. Loop the internal table and find the Count.

How to count frequency of specific text in Column?

Hi All,
We have an FR , designed in FR studio which when run, pulls from hfm the " Calculation Status" of all the entities in a text column. The Status come as "OK", "SC","CN" ,"CH"etc. see below exmple:
Entity                              Status
C1                                   CH
C2                                   SC
C3                                   CN
C4                                   CH
Now If i am trying to apply some formula to calculate the number of times "CH" is coming in that column, its not getting possible.
Somebody please suggest whether such functionality exist in FR or not. If yes, how can i achieve this.
Thanks in advance for always help!

How to count Number of completed instances

Hi Dariel Pérez ,
By executing the Querey I'm able to get the State and num_cube instances but when I call this Query in BPEL by using DB adapter I get the following error
BINDING.JCA-12563 Exception occured when binding was invoked. Exception occured during invocation of JCA binding: “JCA Binding execute of Reference operation ‘CountReq’ failed due to: Pure SQL Exception. Pure SQL Execute of SELECT (CASE WHEN STATE=1 THEN ‘OPEN AND RUNNING’ WHEN STATE=2 THEN ‘OPEN AND SUSPENDED’ WHEN STATE=3 THEN ‘OPEN AND FAULTED’ WHEN STATE=4 THEN ‘CLOSED AND PENDING’ WHEN STATE=5 THEN ‘CLOSED AND COMPLETED’ WHEN STATE=6 THEN ‘CLOSED AND FAUTED’ WHEN STATE=7 THEN ‘CLOSED AND CANCELLED’ WHEN STATE=8 THEN ‘CLOSED AND ABORTED’ WHEN STATE=9 THEN ‘CLOSED AND STALE’ WHEN STATE=10 THEN ‘NON-RECOVERABLE’ ELSE STATE || ” END) AS STATE, COUNT(*) AS NUM_OF_CUBE_INST FROM CUBE_INSTANCE GROUP BY STATE; failed. Caused by java.sql.SQLSyntaxErrorException: ORA-00911: invalid character . The Pure SQL option is for border use cases only and provides simple yet minimal functionality. Possibly try the “Perform an operation on a table” option instead. This exception is considered not retriable, likely due to a modelling mistake. To classify it as retriable instead add property nonRetriableErrorCodes with value “-911″ to your deployment descriptor (i.e. weblogic-ra.xml). To auto retry a retriable fault set these composite.xml properties for this invoke: jca.retry.interval, jca.retry.count, and jca.retry.backoff. All properties are integers. “. The invoked JCA adapter raised a resource exception. Please examine the above error message carefully to determine a resolution.
Any Suggetions.

But my main problem is that when my application (VC++ 7) fires the following query in the oracle database , it does not return any rows.
SELECT count(*) FROM ORGANISATION WHERE UPPER(ORGANISATION.ORGANISATIONNAME)
LIKE N'β%' ORDER BY ORGANISATION.ORGANISATIONNAME
the above question in the previous thread was just to check on sql plus as it's editor does not support unicode characters.

How can I EXCLUDE particular folders/files from being included in the Lightroom 5 catalog?

How can I EXCLUDE particular folders/files from being included in the Lightroom 5 catalog?
I want to be able to specify paths and/or filename patterns that should NEVER be indexed in the catalog: not that they don't show up under certain circumstances, just that they are NOT THERE (in the catalog) to begin with!!
I also do NOT want to have to respecify these criteria when "synching" the catalog; criteria should be PERMANENT (or at least 'til they're changed in LR preferences).
I cannot be the only person in the world with this problem--but it sure seems like it, because I've spent an inordinate amount of time doing online searches & I can't find anything that addresses this issue.
Can anyone PLEASE HELP me?
BTW, Adobe employees (if there are any of you out there), I'm simply trying out LR now. If I can't get this (seemingly fundamental) thing worked out (with relatively little effort), Adobe is going to LOSE A SALE of LR, because it's useless to me without this feature.
Thanks,
-t

Thanks for the info... but how to you TELL LR to EXCLUDE images in a particular directory/directory structure? The intuitive place to indicate this would be a right-click on the folder itself (or particular images), but no such option exists.. "???" Thanks again, -pt
The same way that you avoid buying things in your local convenience store. You don't stick a lot of labels on certain shelves, slap a credit card down on the counter each week, and announce you are buying everything that doesn't have a label on its shelf. You just choose the things you want to buy.
Your mention of "synching the catalog" suggests that you are expecting the LR library, to mirror the total images in the computer by default. This is not IMO a useful way to think about it. LR contains no images at all, by default: the Catalog starts out empty.
Then you Add just those selected images that you want to import, among those already in the computer. That's a one-off process which is IMO best achieved controllably in batches - which you can keyword and otherwise organise in LR terms as you go. For new incoming images, ongoing, it is a question of Copying, Moving or Adding these in defined batches as they occur - from the relevant location only - there is no need to re-consider the import of a wider body of images. And one would not want to repeat that whole task anyway: one's prior investment in achieving the right selectivity, has a positive value.
