Hi Sridhar,

So, if i understand you correctly, you want to replace all characters in a string with 9 as in the above example, irrespective of position of the character, if so try with the below code.
DATA: l_str TYPE string.
l_str = 'ASKHSIUDNSBDKJSDH124312431243124saasdfsf'.
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF REGEX '\D' IN l_str WITH '9'.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
WRITE: l_str. "Result will be 9999999999999999912431243124312499999999
ENDIF.

OAViewObject vo = (OAViewObject) am.findViewObject("XXXXInvDistributionsVO1");
vo.first();
Number grossamount = 0;
for (int i=0;i< vo.getRowCount();i++) {
// BigDecimal grossamount1 = new BigDecimal((vo.getRowAtRangeIndex(i).getAttribute("Amount")));
grossamount = ((oracle.jbo.domain.Number)vo.getRowAtRangeIndex(i).getAttribute("Amount")).intValue();
System.out.println("grossamount "+grossamount); // it ignores and prints decimal points
BigDecimal grossamount1 = new BigDecimal(grossamount.intValue());
System.out.println("grossamount1 "+grossamount1); // it ignores and prints decimal points
vo.next();

As your screen fields should be global variables in SAPLXQQM, you may initialize them by implementing function module EXIT_SAPMIWO0_008 which also belongs to SAPLXQQM (Customer Exit: Transfer Notification Data to User Screen)

How to write the char value as is in the CSV file

Hi Everyone,
I am creating csv files which contains inventory details for all the products. I am able to create the csv file with utl file concepts. My problem starts after the csv file is being created.
some of the product numbers(Though I am saying Product number, it is varchar2 data type in the table) is like this 3E-12, 3E-54 and so on. I have totally 23 product numbers like this.
When the user opens the csv file it is changing to numbers like this 3.00E-12, 3.00E-54. I want to keep the product number as it is like char value. I tried many quoting and concat methods.
But none of them works for me.

How to Capture the Variables Value into the

Using JSLT part of the Jdeveloper/Jheadstart, ADF/Struts Framework.
I'm capturing the value fine using the following,
<c:set var="CvInformationFirstName" scope="request" value="${bindings.CvInformationFirstName.attributeValue}"/>I can even show the value without any problem,
<%-- Show the saved values --%>
<c:out value='${requestScope.CvInformationFirstName}' />Right here, we I try assigning the value of the firstname to a field, I can't accomplish this since I just don't know how to do it,
<html:text name="CvInformationBean" property="CvInformationFirstName" size="10" maxlength="10"/>
Any help will be greatly appreciate it.
Oracle Group

I am not sure what it is you are trying to accomplish. What do you mean with "assigning"? It is a business rule where the FirstName and LastName fields of the master need to be equal to the FirstName and LastName of the details, or is it the other way around? Anyway, it seems you are trying to get this business rule implemented by playing around with <html:text> elements in the JSP. You can't do it that way. Those <html:text> elemens are "two way". When the page is shown they determine which values get shown. Then, when the user enters new values and submits, they determine where those values are stored. If I understand what you are trying to accomplish correctly, you are trying to show values from one place, but submit them to another place. That can't be done strictly at the JSP level (not unless you use JavaScript anyway).
But then again, I may be misinterpreting what you are trying to do. Could you provide some more details about what the desired functionality is?
Finally, may I remark that this is the JHeadstart Forum, where you can communicate with other JHeadstart users all over the world. Also you may have noticed that the JHeadstart Team monitors this forum, and as such it is used as a means of providing some support for JHeadstart users that run into bugs or problems with the JHeadstart Tool (JHeadstart is a Consulting product that does not come with official "Metalink" support). But your problem is obviously not a bug in JHeadstart, you are just wondering how to implement some additional functionality that our Generator does not generate. So I hope you understand that if you get any assistance on this forum with your problem, either from the JHeadstart Team or from other JHeadstart users, it is not because you have a right to it, but because we're a bunch of friendly people out here that like to help out where we can. Demanding a reply like you did with your last two posts (an hour apart!) is really not done.

How to check the source value is in between a string range in mapping

Hi Consultants,
I am working on IDOC to File scenario. I need to implement a specific requirement of our client. i.e. something like below;
Vendor number can be any thing like 1AA000000 / 1AA000001/1AB000000/... ect till 1ZZ999999.
if the vendor number is in between 1AA000000 -1ZZ999999 then the target value should assign as 'Internal' else should assing as 'External'.
How to compare that the value of vendor is in between IAA000000 to 1ZZ999999 in mapping?
Appreciate your help.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Nausheen

You can try creating an UDF and using the varName.substring(); method. Then you can compare in separated pieces the string. For example
String var = "1AA000000";
if (var.substring(3).compareTo("000000") < 0 && var.substring(3).compareTo("999999") > 0)
//compare now the "AA" and "ZZ" with the same logic;
http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#substring(int, int)
http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#compareTo(java.lang.Object)
EDIT: Moreover, those functions are available in the Mapping program creation, but this should give a clue on the order it should be done.

How to pupup the calendar value into text box ?

Hi
I want to use the calendar for my text field .
The calendar will popup when I click a button /image. This image will appear next to text box . when click the calendar. The values should come to into text box.
Please give me any idea how to write a code in jsp for handling the value from calendar.
Thanks
Merlin Roshina

I am assuming u have popupcalendar.js and stylesheets.
Include the javascript in your jsp.
<script type="text/javascript" src="scripts/popcalendar.js"/>
and call the method popUpCalendar on some event like onclick as shown below.
<img border="1" src="images/calendaricon.jpg" title="Open calendar" onClick="popUpCalendar(this,<object to be populated>,'mm/dd/yyyy')" alt="Calendar"/>
<object to be populated> u can give it like this for your text box. U can define an id attribute for your text box and call document.getElementById("<id name>")
and rest the javascript will take care.

How to update table J_1IPART1,without replacing the old values

Helllo Friends
Problem:
When I capture the excisable document in T-code J1IEX, the table J_1IPART1 does not get updated ,but when I do the good receipts by 101,then entry in the above table get updated ,by replacing the previous entry.
What should I do so that table J_1IPART2 hold all the captured values without replacing the old values.
And after what time of interval do I need to update the register, is it on daily bases or on monthly bases

Try these steps:
1. Post MIGO without excise entry
2. J1I5 - Update register for RG23A Part1 with classification ROP.
3. Post excise Invoice through J1IEX
You should update the register on daily basis.

How to avoid the duplicate values, I do not want the duplicate............

i have one database table called "sms1" that table is updated every day or on daily basis it has the following fields in it:
SQL> desc sms1;
Name Null? Type
MOBILE NUMBER
RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER VARCHAR2(39 CHAR)
SNO NUMBER
INDATE DATE
From this table the is one column "RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER VARCHAR2(39 CHAR)" . I am splitting it into different columns like :
SQL> desc smssplit;
Name Null? Type
R VARCHAR2(2 CHAR)
C VARCHAR2(2 CHAR)
S VARCHAR2(1 CHAR)
TC VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
NA VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
TC2 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
NA2 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
TC3 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
NA3 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
TC4 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
NA4 VARCHAR2(3 CHAR)
WTHER VARCHAR2(10 CHAR)
SNO NUMBER
INSERTDATA VARCHAR2(25 CHAR)
Now I am written a procedure to insert the data from "Sms1" table to smssplit table...
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE SPLITSMS
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO scott.SMSSPLIT ( R,C,S,TC,NA,TC2,NA2,TC3,NA3,TC4,NA4,WTHER,SNO)
SELECT SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,1,2) R,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,3,2) C,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,5,1) S,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,6,3) TC,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,9,3) NA,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,12,3) TC2,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,15,3) NA2,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,18,3) TC3,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,21,3) NA3,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,24,3) TC4,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,27,3) NA4,
SUBSTR(RCSTCNATCNATCNATCNAWTHER,30,10) WTHER, SNO
FROM scott.SMS1 where SNO=(select MAX (sno) from SMS1);
END;
Now in order to update the second table with data from first table on regular basis I have written a job scheduler and I am using oracle 9.0. version...
DECLARE
X NUMBER;
JobNumber NUMBER;
BEGIN
SYS.DBMS_JOB.SUBMIT
job => X
,what => 'scott.SPLITSMS;'
,next_date => SYSDATE+1/1440
,interval => 'SYSDATE+1/1440 '
,no_parse => FALSE
:JobNumber := to_char(X);
END;
Now this job scheduler is working properly and updating the data for every one minute but it is taking or updating the duplicate values also ..like example:
R C S TC NA TC2 NA2 TC3 NA3 TC4 NA4 WTHER SNO

utl_file.put_line( (f_in1,s_in);
end;
end loop;
utl_file.fclose(f_in);
end;
In this case it is reading and writing as it is, but unable to replace the sequence value
Can some one please tell me how to do using replace function
Thanks

Hi, I have tried this but getting error
step 1: create table test_dept(dno number, dname varchar2(20))
insert into test_dept values(10,'10-Sourcing dept');
insert into test_dept values(20,'20-Audting dept');
insert into test_dept values(30,'30-Computer dept');
select * from test_dept;
DNO DNaME

step 2:
create table test_web (name varchar2(60), xml_col xmltype) ;
step 3:
create sequence test1_seq start with 100 increment by 1

My requirement is to replace the
1. contents of the file WP10 from <file_num>WP10</file_num>
with sequence value 'WP101' because sequence is starting at 100
2. Replace all Dept tag <Dept>30</Dept> with Dname value from test_dept table
for example
<Dept>10</Dept> should be replaced with <Dept>10-Sourcing dept</Dept>
update the
when i say select * from test_web;
It should contain this row

Replacing the same value in a string with varying values

If I have a string:
"%s is the %s I am referring to"
and - I want to replace the %s occurrences with DIFFERENT values... what's the best way to do this.
I was thinking parsing it into seperate strings using substr and instr but, I'm not sure if that's overkill or not.
Replace is ideal but - it replaces every occurrence so - you can state just replace the first occurrence with one value and the second with another (i.e. if the desired result after replacing the above string was supposed to be "This is the string I am referring to"
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Explain how you get those results from that data.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.3.0).
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}

Replace is ideal but - it replaces every occurrence so - you can state just replace the first occurrence with one value and the second with another (i.e. if the desired result after replacing the above string was supposed to be "This is the string I am referring to"As you said, REPLACE changes all occurrences. There's no way to tell it (for example) to change only the first one.
REGEXP_REPLACE, is a lot more flexible. It does have an option for giving a specific occurrence, but you may not even need that feature. You might just want something like
REGEXP_REPLACE ( '%s is the %s I am referring to'
            , '(.*)%s(.*)%s(.*)'
            , '\1This\2string\3'
            )It all depends on your data and your requirements.
Are the new values (such as 'This' and 'string') fixed, or can they change from row to row?
Will you always have 2 (or some known number) of '%s's in the original string?
Does '%' always signal something that is to be replaced? If not, how can you tell when it does and when it doesn't?
Does 's' always come right after '%'? If not, what are the possibilites, and what do the different characters signify?

How to replace the char values into numeric in my string?
