How to replace name with number ID

Example:
Table1
T1ID Name1
1 John Smith
2 Kathy Smith
Table2
T2ID Name2
100 John Smith
101 Kathy Smith
102 John Smith
103 Kathy Smith
I want to replace all names in column called Name2 in Table 2, with matching T1ID from Table 1. There are many name repetitions in Table 2.

If Name2 is VARCHAR and T1id is number then it would be better to add a new column with a consistent data type;
Sample data;
create table table1 as (
select 1 t1id, 'John Smith' name1 from dual union all
select 2, 'Kathy Smith'from dual);
Table created
alter table table1 add constraint table1_pk primary key (t1id);
Table altered
create table table2 as (
select 100 t2id, 'John Smith' name2 from dual union all
select 101, 'Kathy Smith' from dual union all
select 102, 'John Smith' from dual union all
select 103, 'Kathy Smith' from dual);
Table createdAdd the new column;
alter table table2
   add name_id references table1(t1id);
Table alteredUpdate the new column;
merge into table2 t2
using (select t1id, name1
       from table1) t1
on (t2.name2 = t1.name1)
when matched then
update
set t2.name_id = t1.t1id;
DoneDrop the retired column;
alter table table2 drop column name2;
Table altered
select * from table2;
      T2ID    NAME_ID
       100          1
       101          2
       102          1
       103          2

Check with float. It will work definitely.
float number = Float.parseFloat(HrsPerDay); //HrsPerDay is a String and I am converting it to float
if(( number <= 0) || (number >= 21))
                        throw new OAAttrValException(OAAttrValException.TYP_VIEW_OBJECT,
                                          "xxCopyResourceVO1",
                                          rowi.getKey(),
                                          "NoOfCopies",
                                          rowi.getAttribute("NoOfCopies"),
                                          "PA",
                                          "xx_xx_COPY_POSITIVE_NUM");

Do you possibly mean the contacts have been merged?
If so, where are each of you syncing contacts? A supported application on the computer? iCloud or another cloud service? An Exchange server?

How to trace purchase order number with respect to Purchase requestion numb

Hi friends,
Can u please help me how to Trace purchase order number with respect to purchase Requetuion number. Is there any standard report available in R/3

Hi Vamsi,
Thats what!!!
Goto SE16 - EBAN - Give PR number in the iput screen.
In the output screen you will have to do field selection from Menu - Settings - formatlist - choose fields.
There you choose Purchase Order.
So the output will display for you POs for the PR that you entered.

HT204266 How do I purchase a number of apps at one time with just one credit card transaction? I am traveling and I pay an overseas conversion fee each time I use my credit card.

How do I purchase a number of apps at one time through iTunes using just one credit card transaction. So far it seems that each app purchase is a separate transaction. Is there a shopping cart facility? I can't find one if there is. I'm traveling so each credit card transaction is quite costly.
Thanks!
Ruth

I wish this were true.
It is true.
You will be billed for iTunes purchase exactly the same as if you are at home. The CC company will not add any fees.
When purchasing through iTunes, it is NOT an overseas transaction. The transaction will simply show up as a regular transaction in your iTunes store. You will be charged/billed according to your address in iTunes, not where you physically are located.
When you make a purchase in a shop, the retailer ID/location is sent with the transaction allowing the CC company to figure the exchange rates and bill the correct amount.

How to generate report with dynamic variable number of columns?

How to generate report with dynamic variable number of columns?
I need to generate a report with varying column names (state names) as follows:
SELECT AK, AL, AR,... FROM States ;
I get these column names from the result of another query.
In order to clarify my question, Please consider following table:
CREATE TABLE TIME_PERIODS (
PERIOD     VARCHAR2 (50) PRIMARY KEY
CREATE TABLE STATE_INCOME (
     NAME     VARCHAR2 (2),
     PERIOD     VARCHAR2 (50)     REFERENCES TIME_PERIODS (PERIOD) ,
     INCOME     NUMBER (12, 2)
I like to generate a report as follows:
AK CA DE FL ...
PERIOD1 1222.23 2423.20 232.33 345.21
PERIOD2
PERIOD3
Total 433242.23 56744.34 8872.21 2324.23 ...
The TIME_PERIODS.Period and State.Name could change dynamically.
So I can't specify the state name in Select query like
SELECT AK, AL, AR,... FROM
What is the best way to generate this report?
