How to remove carraige return from the field while loading external table
I am facing an issue of not getting rid of carraige returns present in the fileds of the source .csv file while loading the records into external table.
I had tried using LRTRIM, but it does not help.
The error I am getting is:
KUP-04021: field formatting error for field POPULATION_DESCRIPTION
KUP-04037: terminator not found
I am pasting one record out of the .csv file which is causing this error as below:
"Business Card Accounts
",123,7 BizCard - Gamers,Control,"Business Card Accounts
",75270,75271
You can see the carraige return in the 1st field as well as 5th field. Filed are separated by commas & eclosed by double quotes.
Could anybody help on this please?
Can you copy the file to an external table only version, and then dos2unix it?
Alternatively, you can use the ACCESS PARAMETERS area in your external table definition to set that your RECORDS DELIMITED BY carriage returns, instead of the default.
Check out the example here http://www.psoug.org/reference/externaltab.html

Remove carriage returns from a field in an oracle table
I have a field that is defined as a LONG in my oracle table; the data contained in this field has carriage returns/line feeds (it's free form text); as i'm selecting data from this field, i need the carriage returns removed so that the data from this field all appears on one line.
I tried using the TRANSLATE function to convert the carriage returns to something else, but that doesn't work.
Example:
Select comment from Notes:
COMMENT
the applicant called for an appointment;
an exam was scheduled for 4/1/05 at 9am;
called applicant to confirm app
this needs to be extracted as: "the applicant called for an appointment; an exam was scheduled for 4/1/05 at 9am; called applicant to confirm app"
How can i do this? Can the decode function be used to remove the carriage returns in this field?when i used translate its giving correctly,

How to remove characters/lines from the beginning of an InputStream
Hi,
I have a program which receives several InputStreams. From each of these streams I have to remove 2 lines from the beginning. After the lines are removed, all the streams are combined to one with SequenceInputStream and read in one chunk. Is there an easy/simple way of doing this?
One option I thought would be to read the char by char until 2 end of line chars have been detected and then read the rest of the data to a buffer. And the create a ByteArrayInputStream out of this buffer. Problem with this approach is, that the amount of data can be large, so putting all the data in to memory might cause problems.
Another option is to use BufferredInputStream and use the readline() method twice to get rid of the lines that are not needed. After this I would write the data to some output stream, which is then converted back to input stream. Propably would work, but sound too much of work for a simple thing like this. There has to be better way.
To make it simple, what I need is a method that looks like the following, or something similar
* Removes n number of lines from the beginning of a InputStream.
* @param is InputStream where the lines are removed
* @param numberOfLines int value to indicate how many lines whould be removed
* @return InputStream where lines have been removed.
public InputStream removeLines(InputStream is, numberOfLines);Thanks.Here's the code, feel free to use it. Comments are also welcome.
public InputStream removeLinesFromTheBeginning(InputStream is, int numberOfLines) throws IOException
char c = 'c';
int i = 0;
for(int n = 0 ; n < numberOfLines ; n++)
do
c = (char)is.read();
System.out.print(c);
if(c == (char)-1) // end of stream reached before any newline characters were found.
return null;
i++;
while(c != '\n');
System.out.println();
System.out.println("Characters removed:" + i);
System.out.println("n: " + n);
i = 0;
return is;

How can I remove duplicate songs from the iPhone4. The duplicates are not listed in the computer iTunes library.
The simplest thing may be to back-up and then restore the iPhone. If you don't fancy that then remove all media that is currently synced to it, then double check and manually remove any media that remains on the device, before reselecting your sync options.
If you've been manually managing the device and your library doesn't contain copies of all your media then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device.

Veeam - How to remove a drive from the rotated hard drive media pool
Does anyone know of a way to remove a drive from the media pool of the rotated drive media repository?
I accidentally added one to the repository and now I want to get it out of there so Veeam Backup & Replication does not try to backup to a drive that is normally full.

There still is that paper clip hole, but on some G4s you have to remove the faceplate or even drive to do it.

How to remove -ve sign from the deduction wagetype in payslip
Hi Experts,
Plz tell me how i can remove the -ve sign from the deduction column in
the Payslip.
Regards
TSHi ,
Do you just have to show the sign different in payslip and the RT .
Coz what it seems is that the RT is having a negative WT , so in order to make it positive you goto
PE51 , enter the form you are using and change the cumulation id for deduction wage type .
Hope this helps.
