How to insert arabic&english from oracle clients like TOAD,SQL*PLUS

Hi
iam trying to insert arabic&english data from TOAD&SQLPLUS.
if i try to insert arabic by copy and paste iam getting ???? and
if i try to insert through my keyboard (after updating my system with regional
settings) iam able to type some junk characters.
I have installed Oracle 8.1.6 with characterset set to UTF8 and
in my client NLS_LANG settings i have tried with different settings like:-
AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
AMERICAN_AMERICA.AR8MSAWIN
ARABIC_UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.UTF8
ARABIC_UNITED ARAB EMIRATES.AR8MSWIN1256
i have also updated INIT.ORA nls_language ='ARABIC'.
but still iam getting same problem.
any help in this appriciated.
Thanks
Srinivas

Are you able to use Arabic with your Java VM in general? Or are you having problems specific to your database interactions? Sun provides an internationalized version of the JDK and also an "English only" version. Perhaps you have the English only version? I would recommend trying a simple Hello World app with your JVM first... I would also check your JDBC driver documentation and make sure there are no limitations there, and that your database is also setup for internationalization.
It is certainly possible to use TopLink in internationalized environments as we have lots of customers doing this, so hopefully we can figure out what is wrong with your setup.

How to insert special character from Oracle form builder 10g

Dear all,
I need help. how to insert special character like 'Superscript or Subscript ' from oracle form builder 10g. I had try in Oracle form builder 6i with press ALT+ASCII code in the text item and it work, but in the oracle form builder 10g this method doesn't work... would you like to help me...somebody please...
Best Regard,
Dedy P.T.

What do you mean by insert ... from Forms Builder? Do you mean you want to add it as text in a string of pl/sql code or as part of boiler plate text (label) or a value on the Property Palette?
For special characters you would need set NLS_LANG to something that would support the characters you want to use. For the Builder to see the change, you would need to set NLS_LANG to something like:
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
This can be done in the Windows Registry or system. As I mentioned, this will only apply to the Builder and will have nothing to do with a running form. For running forms you would need to set this in default.env. As for things like super and sub scripts, these are font formats and not necessarily characters. For the most part, I don't believe these are supported in Forms.

So, it got compiled successfully but when i execute it gives me error as:

What does this mean?
So I browse through forum & i got to know that i need to initial the UTL_FILE_DIR ="C:/OracleProject" in init.ora
So can i edit the init.ora with notepad.When i tried to do that it says permission denied
In my system it shows the init.ora file in path C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\config\scripts
but there is also other file initXETemp in the same path do i need to do the changes in it.
I have tried even editing the SPFILE as mentioned below:
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\dbs\SPFILEEXE - I had edit this file using notepad & set the value of UTL_FILE_DIR ="C:/OracleProject". So next time when i restarted i'm unable to log on to the database.
So i had reinstall the software again.
Could you please let me know how to proceed..

You never delete a Time Machine backup by dragging it to the Trash. You are supposed to use the TM application to manage the backups. What you will need to do now is to simply erase the drive using Disk Utility.

How can I transport data from one client to another client?

How can I transport data from one client to another client?
Regards,
Subho

hmmm, CTS = cutomizing transport?
If you have a customizing table, there are still two possibilities.
1. customize in DEV system and transport
2. customize right there where you need it.
this depends on how the maintainance view is built. If it is a simple customizing table and you get not asked for a TR when customizing a new record or changing an existing one, you hit possibility 2.

How to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet

how to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet.
I need to import columns and there datas from oracle database to microsoft excel sheet.
Please let me know the different ways for doing this.
Thanks.

asktom.oracle.com has an excellent article on writing a PL/SQL procedure that dumps data to an Excel spreadsheet-- search for 'Excel' and it'll come up.
You can also use your favorite connection protocol (ODBC, OLE DB, etc) to connect from Excel to Oracle and pull the data out that way.

How to insert select columns from one internal table to another

Hi,
How to insert select columns from one internal table to another based on condition as we do from a standart table to internal table.
regards,
Sriram

Hi,
If your question is for copying data from 1 int table to other ;
we can use
APPEND LINES OF it_1 TO it_2.
or if they have different columns then:
loop at it_1 into wa_it1.
move wa_it1-data to wa_it2-d1.
apped wa_it2 to it_2.
clear wa_it2.
endloop.

How to insert a value from sequence in Bussiness Components?

How to insert a value from sequence in Bussiness Components?
I would like to do it, but without a triger that would do it before insert.
I know that there is a type DBSequence in BC where you can insert a sequence name but it does not work when I type there my sequence name.
Do you now how to fix that problem?
Bart.

The newer way to do it is to make the type DBSequence and enter the name of the Sequence object in the sequence field. It must match the same name of the sequence object in the database. Next, you have to create a before insert for each row trigger on the table. Basically, something like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TGB_THEME_SEQ
BEFORE INSERT ON THEME
FOR EACH ROW
DECLARE
BEGIN
-- Assign the id from the sequence if null
     IF( :new.theme_id IS NULL ) THEN
          SELECT THEME_ID_SEQ.nextval
          INTO :new.theme_id
          FROM dual;
     END IF;
END;
In the above example, THEME_ID_SEQ is the seuence object name in the database. If you have the name right but it still fails, then the user you are logging in as probably doesn't have access to the sequence in the database.
Hope this helps.

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing p

How to invoke crystal reports from Oracle forms 11g R2 along with passing parameter to it.
how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.

how to pass parameters to crystal report, please help.This would entirely depend on crystal reports and you might find informations on crystal reports related communities more likely...I for one have seen crystal reports the last time about 12 years ago. And even back then I simply acknowledged it's existence instead of working with it.
Maybe crystal reports can be invoked via a URL call which would make it simple as you'd need simply build an URL and show the report using web.show_document. But that's pure speculation. Also you might not be the first with this requirement, so the solution to your problem might be right under your nose and just a little google search away ;)
