friends
thanks for ur time and effort that u gave to reply to my problem.
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 to use the special character pallet in Maverics with Illustrator

How to use the special character pallet in Mavericks with Illustrator - I follow the help instructions, but the pasted in object looks like a rectangle with an X, I have done this before, in earlier versions of AI, but cannot make it work in CS6.
In fact, I can open an old AI file (CS4), copy the character (a graphic symbol, also taken from the special character set), paste it in, and it works, but can't do this with a new one, from the drop down, Show Character Viewer, in the Mavericks menu bar.

The box with an X indicates the font you are using does not have the glyph you are trying to paste. Try a different font.

Use two single quotes inside your literals to represent one single quote.
For example, this would find my name:
SELECT *
FROM emp
WHERE name = 'Michael O''Neill';
Michael O'Neill
(acutely aware of the apostrophe issues in the world)

I think it is <2095>.
In SmartForms, go to your text window.
Use the icon on the top left of the text window to switch to the old editor.
INSERT -> CHARACTERS -> SAP ICONS.
Do a FIND on "radio". It's called ICON_WD_RADIO_BUTTON_EMPTY.

Hello to everybody
It's ok for the ~ " # % & * : < > ? / \ { | } characters, they cannot be allowed,
but in a lot of languages there are letters like è é à ù ò that are accepted for path and/or filename;
how to allow these characters? Moss indexes them but when doing some searches and clicking on these files, in the new internet explorer windows the file cannot be opened abd examining the url the è é à ù ò are replaced with other character.
Thanks in advance to everybody

Hi Frank,
This is excellent function. Thanks for you responce.
I want to modify this query in such a way that .... i should get only those datafiles name which are holding special characters. I don't know how to put this in where condition. :( Here's one way:
SELECT file_name
,       ...     -- other expressions, if you want any
FROM    dba_data_files
WHERE   TRANSLATE ( file_name
                  , '?0123456789.ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\_/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'
                  ) IS NOT NULL Among the other expressions you can put into the SELECT clause (if you want to) is a copy of the TRANSLATE function, as you had in your message. That would highlight exactly which character(s) made the file_name invalid.

How to know the Special character?

I am using Release 10.2.0.1.0 version of oracle. I am getting a special character, but i suspect it as any other language caharacter.
Its appearing in my 'TOAD editor/Sql prompt editor' as 'A?'. but when i am selecting it from the table using below query, its giving 'No rows Returned'.
select id from tab1 where id like 'A%';
Please let me know, how can i be able to see the exact character or which editor will enable me to see the character?
I think sql developer GUI might be able to show the same but i dont have sql developer with me.

How to return the entire row from a table

Hi guys,
Tabl A
FirstName varchar2(10),
Age Number,
Add varchar2(100),
Table B
Filedname varchar2(200), -- contains all the fields of table A
Datatype varchar2(100), -- Contains the datatypes of the filedname
Length Number -- contains the length of the fileds
Now how can i return the entire row from table A with the datatype and its length.
Any help would be appreciated ?
Here is the query I wrote but it how to take the datatype and its length..
create or replace procedure disp_table_data
as
type r_cursor is REF CURSOR;
c_A r_cursor;
er A%rowtype;
begin
open c_A for select * from A;
loop
fetch c_A into er;
exit when c_A%notfound;
dbms_output.put_line(er.FirstName||'--'||er.Age);
end loop;
close c_A;
END;
/

Guys,
I want column value from table A and its corresponding data_type and length from table B. I think I cant do it through joins.
Any idea would be appreciated ?.
Example ..
Tabl A
FirstName varchar2(10),
Age Number,
Add varchar2(100)
insert into A values('John',24,'Boston');
Table B
Filedname varchar2(200), -- contains all the fields of table A
Datatype varchar2(100), -- Contains the datatypes of the filedname
Length Number -- contains the length of the fileds
insert into B values('FirstName','varchar2',10); -- this is coming from table A.
Output should be like this...
John,Varchar2,10
Here (John is the FirstName - coming from table A, Varchar2 is a Datatype and 10 is the Length which are coming from table B ). Only column values are coming from table A , corresponding datatype and length are coming from B.
Any idea would be appreciated ?
Thanks.

How to delete the committed row from a table from its VOImpl class ??

I am new to ADF and I have problem to solve. To perform roll back I am using fetching key before roll back and setting it after undo operation, so that I can stay back in the currently selected row. But in my case I am using application model commit for one LOV attribute selection in the row. So when ever I am performing roll back operation after inserting a row, the values other than this committed LOV attribute gets roll backed, but I need remove the entire row from table. Does there any option to remove a row based on the attribute values of a row from VO's row implementation or from bean class in a performance optimized way ?
Thanks in advance..........

Why did you mark it answered but gave no dukes to finalight? That's not how it works.
You should mark his answer as correct and give him at least one duke, for the effort!

How to disable the special character input by Option key?

Hi, all!
I'm a eclipse developer and I'm get used to type (alt + /) shortcut for code tip in eclipse, but in Mac, when I type (option + /), I got ÷ symbol, how can I disable this functionality in Mac?
Many thankS

On the U.S., U.S. Extended, and U.S. International PC keyboards, the option key turns the / character into ÷.
In the System Preferences > Keyboard Preferences > Keyboard Tab > Modifier Keys... you can actually set the option key modifier to No Action. It does what it says and option + / is exactly what you get.
