  • Sql: remove special characters

    Hello!
    maybe someone has a hint for me how to remove special characters such as tab/new line characters from columns?
    Thanks in advance!
    Tiberius

    Hmm... actually it's straight forward:
    drop table mytexts
    create table mytexts (comment varchar(50))
    insert into mytexts values ('This is a standard text!')
    insert into mytexts values ('There comes a TAB     <--')
    insert into mytexts values ('This is called a newline
    <--<')
    select * from mytexts
    | COMMENT                                            |
    | -------------------------------------------------- |
    | This is a standard text!                           |
    | There comes a TAB     <--                              |
    | This is called a newline
    <--<                     |
    3 rows selected (1375 usec)
    sqlcli db770=> select replace (replace(comment, '       '), '
    > ') as cleaned_comment from mytexts
    > ;
    | CLEANED_COMMENT                                    |
    | -------------------------------------------------- |
    | Thisisastandardtext!                               |
    | TherecomesaTAB<--                                  |

    Hi Venkat,
    check this thread.
    Handling Special Characters
    check the document :

    Depends upon encoding methods handling will differ,
    you can use ISO-8859-1 or ISO-8859-2 instead of UTF-8 for some special characters.

  • Special characters in XML barcode content

    Hello,
    I made a barcoded form with a custom script that creates a custom XML as barcode content.
    The decoding happens well when the user write plain text in the text fields, but whenever it inputs some special characters (for XML syntax), like ",<,>,=,etc... the content of barcode it is decoded as:
    <barcode>
    <!CDATA[... true content ...]>
    </barcode>
    how can I handle this situation?
    I have to handle what the user writes or I have to change the decode activity?
    Thank you very much for your support!
    Fabio

    Steve,
    I have already encoded decode operation in UTF-8. In form level, because it is an acrobat form, no option to choose the encoding as in LC Designer. In further tests, if I change the extractToXML output to XDP instead of XFDF, then I will receive data rather than &# sequence. It is strange. Don't understand why XDP and XFDF would give out different encoding.

  • How to write special characters in PDF using iText

    How to write special characters encoded with UTF-8 in PDF using iText.
    Regards,
    Pandharinath.

    I don't know what your problem is but that's almost certainly the wrong question to ask about it. Java (including iText) uses only Unicode characters. (You may consider some of them to be "special" if you like but Unicode doesn't.) And when it does that, they aren't encoded in UTF-8 or any other encoding.
    So can you describe your problem? That question doesn't make sense.

    There are a set of characters / icons /symbols that can be included in Script , for that open a window in edit mode and in the menu there will be an option called Insert  , here you can find a lot of characters/symbols that can be included .

  • Removing special characters

    Hi,
    I have to remove special characters from string and replace it with space.
    Kindly help its urgent.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You Can use Overlay command for this.
    Syntax
    OVERLAY text1 WITH text2 [ONLY pattern].
    Effect
    Characters in the text1 variable are replaced by characters in the text2 data object which are there in the same location. If the ONLY addition is not specified, all blank characters in text1 are replaced. If the ONLY addition is specified, all characters are replaced that occur in the pattern data object, and upper and lowercase is taken into consideration. If the lengths of text1 and text2 are different, text1 is processed using the shorter length only.
    CONSTANTS initial_time TYPE t VALUE IS INITIAL.
    DATA: time TYPE t,
          text(4) TYPE c.
    text = '12'.
    time = text.
    write : time.

  • How to convert special characters in ABAP to XML?

    Hi All.
    We have a scenario where from XI (exchange Infrastructure), a BAPI is called which returns an XML. From that XML, a PDF is generated.
    Now, if the XML contains any special characters, it will fail.
    So if any CHinese char or >, # etc signs are there, it fails.
    Can you please tell me how to convert my string in ABAP to a proper XML?
    I am new to it and I was trying the following code
    DATA: today TYPE string,
          result TYPE string.
    today = 'This is testing'.
    CALL TRANSFORMATION ID
         SOURCE today = today
         RESULT XML result.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
      WRITE result.
    ENDIF.
    But it does not return me anything.

  • How to export special characters into an XML file?

    Dear experts,
    We read files from our customers and save data into our customized table without any character changed, including some address fields. In those address fields, some special characters (not in our code page) are also kept. When we want to write these address fields into an XML file or flat file, the special charcters become "##" or not readable, can anyone help us to solve this issue?

  • How can I remove special characters from spreadsheet filename?

    Hi
    Having a spreadsheet filename coded (on the Report Attributes page) as &VARIABLE..csv works fine unless the VARIABLE contains special characters such as space, lt, gt and so on.
    In the case of space, it is replaced by %20 in the generated filename. Is it possible convert the %20s to underscores (or remove them)?
    thanks
    Trevor

    Trevor,
    I would use a computation on that page to alter the value of variable, perhaps a SQL Expression such as:
      replace (:VARIABLE, ' ', '_')Alternatively, look at the process that puts the value into VARIABLE in the first place and ensure no spaces &gt;, etc are assigned.
