How to get characters between quotes

Dear All,
Ther is a line in the code
lv_v_report :='abcdef'
I want to get only the characters between the two quotes i.e abcdef.
Can someone suggest me how to do this.
Regards,
Gowtham.

2 cases.
1. If we want simply omit quotes.
2. If we want to cut characters between quotes.
P.S. From Your example, I am not 100% sure, that You really want it.
But anyway
SQL>
SQL> with tab1 as
  2  (select '''abcdef''' col1 from dual)
  3  select replace(col1, ''''),
  4         substr(col1,
  5                instr(col1, '''') + 1,
  6                instr(col1, '''', 1, 2) - instr(col1, '''') - 1)
  7    from tab1
  8  /
REPLACE(COL1,'''') SUBSTR(COL1,INSTR(COL1,'''')+1
abcdef             abcdef

  • How to get relationship between two  views in the  reports

    How to get relationship between two  views in the  reports, I am doing a deletion program , it is fully relates to views , how to get relationship between them in the reports

    Hi,
    Please explain your question in detail...what do you want to read ?
    If you want to know about the navigation links between the views then you can use APIs  like
    wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("windowName").getViewUsageByID("Name").getNavigationLinks();
    Iterate through the navigationLinkInfo from above collection and can read the other properties .
    I haven't tried the above , but it should work !!!

  • How to get rid of quotes in SQL?

    Hi All!
    Does anybody know how to get rid of quotes in
    generated SQL? I don't mean manual editing.
    Are there any properties controlling this
    behavior (adding "" automatically)?
    Thanks in advance!
    Sincerely,
    Lev

    Use PreparedSatement class,
    e.g.
    // Where the name field is defined as char, i.e. needs quotes in SQL.
    String sql = "select * from person where name = ? ";
    PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareSatement(sql);
    statement.setString(1, "Bob");
    statement.executeQuery();
    This will get rid of hardcoding db vendor dependant quotes in your sql,
    Hope this helped.

  • How to get connectivity between Personal Oracle 8.0.0.3 & Developer 2000 (Any Version

    Can anybody tell me how to get connectivity between Personal Oracle 8.0.3 and Developer 2000 Rel 2.1 in Win 98 Environment.
    I am able to install either Oracle 8 or Developer 2000 but not both, even if I use different Oracle Homes.
    When I posted the same question to www.xperts.com someone wrote to me saying that a patch has to be used to get the connectivity.
    I have been trying to solve the problem for last 6 months, but could not do it.
    Can you please tell me how to get the connectivity or atleast tell me which version will facilitate connectivity in a stand alone PC.
    Thanks and regards,

    For Windows98. Worked for me, but no guarantee it will solve your problem.
    1) Install Dev2K.
    2) Install PO8i in a separate Oracle home.
    3) Use the following for TNSNAMES.ORA in your DEV2K Home:
    # C:\ORAWINKS\NETWORK\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA Configuration File:C:\orawinKS\NETWORK\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora
    # Generated by Oracle Net8 Assistant

  • How to get diffrence between time

    Dear All,
    how to get the difference b/w the time.
    consider 3 attributes, say initial time,final time and Difference time.
    The Data type of those attributes are Timestamps.
    Example :
    initial time : 8.00 a.m
    final time : 1.00 p.m
    difference : 5.00 hrs(final time - initial time)
    Thanks in advance

    The timestamps have a method .getTime()
    This will return the milliseconds since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 GMT .
    So if you do
    long diff = finalTime.getTime() - initialTime.getTime();diff will be the difference in milliseconds. Using that, you can calculate how many seconds/hours/days/... it is.

  • How to get rid of quotes in copied hyperlinks?

    I'm using Numbers to keep my hyperlinks, and suddenly discovered that it brakes them when I try to copy-paste them anywhere outside from Numbers.
    For example, link in cell looks like:
    (a href="link")link tex(/a)
    Note: symbols < and > are replaced with ( and ).
    And I can copy it normally from the field above my table.
    But I need to copy more than one link at once, and the result is: "(a href=""link"")link text(/a)"
    How to disable this quoting feature?

    Use PreparedSatement class,
    e.g.
    // Where the name field is defined as char, i.e. needs quotes in SQL.
    String sql = "select * from person where name = ? ";
    PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareSatement(sql);
    statement.setString(1, "Bob");
    statement.executeQuery();
    This will get rid of hardcoding db vendor dependant quotes in your sql,
    Hope this helped.

  • How to get characters from a line in a file ?

    Hello Everybody ,
    I am able to read the lines from the file using readLine( ) method.
    But i do not want to read anything that comes after the character '#'
    Any thing that follows a '#' character is considered as a commet in my case.
    The contents of my input file are,
    #Character mappings for Japanese Shift-JIS character set
    #ASCII character Mapped Shift-JIS character
    m 227,128,133 #Half width katakana letter small m
    n 227,128,134 #Half width katakana letter small n
    o 227,129,129
    p 227,129,130
    q 227,129,131
    r 227,129,132
    s 227,129,133
    t 227,129,134
    u 227,129,135
    v 227,129,136
    w 227,129,137
    x 227,129,138
    y 227,129,139
    z 227,129,142
    My code to read the contents of the file is,
    import java.io.*;
    class Read
    public static void main(String s[])
    try{
    int i=0,j,l;
    BufferedReader in=new BufferedReader(
    new InputStreamReader(
    new FileInputStream("Character.txt")));
    String []str=new String[100];
    while(true)
    str=in.readLine();
    if(str[i]==null) break;
    System.out.println(str[i]);
    i++;
    catch(Exception e)
    e.printStackTrace();
    System.out.println(e);
    How do i store the values within a line in the file
    to two different variables
    Like say,
    I read the line
    i get the character 'm' store it in a variable say, char ch='m' ;
    and the corresponding value 227,128,133 in a String variable.
    String str="227,128,133";
    Please offer some suggesstions and help me out .
    Any suggesstions would be welcome and very useful.
    Thanks and regards

    It depends on whether the format of the file will ever change. If the "rules" regarding the structure of the file are predictable, then it's fairly simple.
    In the sample file, if we assume that anything that starts with # should be ignored, and all relevant lines begin with single char, followed by three comma separated integers; then you can just do the following (haven't tested this)
    import java.io.*;
    class Read
         public static void main(String s[])
              try{
                   // Create a Map to store the results..
                   Map data = new HashMap();
                   // We will store the actual values in an array
                   int[] values = null;
                   // Each valid line has a character
                   char theChar;
                   // Temp storage for the integer values
                   String[] strValues = null;
                   BufferedReader in=new BufferedReader(
                   new InputStreamReader(
                   new FileInputStream("Character.txt")));
                   String str=null;
                      while(true)
                        str=in.readLine();
                        if(str==null) break;
                        // trim to remove any spaces
                        str = str.trim();
                        theChar = str.charAt(0);
                        if(theChar != '#') {
                             // not a comment
                             // Split to get the int
                             strValues = str.substring(1, str.length()).split(",");
                             // We only want the first 3 tokens
                             values = new int[3];
                             for(int i = 0; i < values.length; i++) {
                                  values[i] = Integer.parseInt(strValues);
                             // Now, add the results to the map
                             data.put(String.valueOf(theChar, values);
                             System.out.println(str);
              catch(Exception e)
                   e.printStackTrace();
                   System.out.println(e);
    This will leave you with a Map of the character mappings, keyed on the String value of the character (just because you can't store a char in a Map)
