I want to extend table "hr_location_extra_info_lei" column name "lei_information3" field length from 16 to 30 and was wondering if I can do this and how?

I am trying to extend the field length for colun lei_information 3 from 16 characters to 30 characters in the table hr_location_extra_info_lei, but cannot seem to do this. Can the length be changed and if so how?
Many thanks
Louise

Hi Louise,
All the "lei_informationX" columns in hr_location_extra_info table are of size VARCHAR2(150) (Oracle EBS R12).
So I understand why you're saying it's limited to 16 characters.
May it's only a question of your setup limiting it to 16 car., in which case you can easily change it to 30 by unfreezing the DFF and modifying it.

Migrating from Sql Server tables with column name starting with integer

hi,
i'm trying to migrate a database from sqlserver but there are a lot of tables with column names starting with integer ex: *8420_SubsStatusPolicy*
i want to make an offline migration so when i create the scripts these column are created with the same name.
can we create rules, so when a column like this is going to be migrated, to append a character in front of it?
when i use Copy to Oracle option it renames it by default to A8420_SubsStatusPolicy
Edited by: user8999602 on Apr 20, 2012 1:05 PM

Hi,
Oracle doesn't allow object names to start with an integer. I'll check to see what happens during a migration about changing names as I haven't come across this before.

Mike

Now we have a lot of views which select data from the tables, but I need to get the "Table Column Name" that is linked in the view.
If you are using SQL Server 2012/2014, then you can use
sys.dm_exec_describe_first_result_set (Transact-SQL) to gte the informations.

How to pass column name as a   values from one page to another

hi
i have created a report(pivot) from a table

thanks for your reply
i 'm doing what exactly you mention here .
my problem here is
i have 15 columns
i am executing a query based on the values of the column(column name) in the target page
1)here i am passing(all) the column values to the next page-but i want to pass only one column values(column name)
when i click on any cell of that column
OR
2)i can pass all column name to target page -there(in the target page) i can filter out
i think option 1 would good if you filter out the unwanted columns

I bought Lightroom 3 and want to upgrade to Lightroom 5 for Windows 7. Is the upgrade free and how do I go about the download?

You have to pay for major version upgrades, like LR 3 to LR 5.
You can purchase the upgrade from Adobe for 79 US Dollars from Products, make sure you have your Lightroom 3 serial number available (and maybe cheaper from other sellers)

How to rename a column name while copying it from another table

Hi All,
I am copying rows between two table TableA to TableB
but I wanted to insert data in he column name (username) in tableA to a column named (NewUser) in tableB
How do I go about that?
insert into TableB
select Username
from TableA
Thanks

If you want to only move username, then just specify the column name for TableB, that is
insert into TableB(NewUser)
select Username
from TableA
If you want to move all (or some) of the columns while putting Username in a column named NewUser, just list the columns in both the insert into part and the select part, for example
insert into TableB(NewUser, ColA, ColB, ColC)
select Username, ColA, ColB, ColC
from TableA

How to read the data from an internal table,when column names are known

Hi All
I have a specific requirement. I got an internal table with many fields (let it be my_tab). Some of the fieldnames (column names in internal table my_tab) are stored in separate internal table(let it be my_fields).
I need to store/read data corresponding to the fields (whose name is stored in my_fields) from my_tab.
I am able to build dynamic table (referred by field-symbol) with respect to the given field names in my_fields.
But i am unable to read the data corresponding to the fieldnames from my_tab.
Please provide me some pointer in this regard.
Regards
Swetabh Shukla

Thanks for the prompt response. I got solution for my question. Please check below thread. For quick reponse i posted my question in one more category. Thanks to all of you.
How to read internal table w.r.t. fieldnames stored in other table

Referencing table-aliased column names in JDBC

We are attempting to port an application from MySQL to Oracle 8i, using JDBC as the database connection technology. The app has SQL statements using joins, e.g.
SELECT A.*, B.* FROM table1 A, table2 B WHERE A.field1=B.field2 etc
Often the tables have columns sharing the same name, so the table alias is required to avoid ambiguity (e.g. both tables have column ID, so they must be referenced as A.ID or B.ID).
When using MySQL, the Java code
String strField = rset.getString( "SURNAME" );
or
String strField = rset.getString( "A.SURNAME" );
both succeed if the column name is unique, and if it is not unique, only the second form works. However, with Oracle, the second form never works, even though the column name is a valid column in the table aliased as A. Providing the whole table name does not work either:
String strField = rset.getString( "table1.SURNAME" );
If the Oracle JDBC driver does not support the {table-alias}.{column-name} syntax, then presumably the only way to reference ambiguous columns in joins is to supply the column number instead. (e.g. getString( 14 )). Our application generates dynamic SQL, and having to do this would be a MAJOR problem.
We are currently using Oracle 8i - might this have been fixed in the move to 9i?
Many thanks for any help,

Can't do it by alias, as you would just repeat the
calculation/function/whatever and add whatever additional "stuff"
to create your new column.
ISNULL(row1, 99999) AS ideal,
ISNULL(row1, 99999)+10 AS newideal
etc.

How to update a table whose column name contains an ampersand?

Hello,
I am needing to update a column whose column name contains an ampersand, and cannot figure out a way to do this. Option is not there to have the column name changed.
Ex:
UPDATE aircrafts
SET d&f = 1
WHERE aircraft_code = '737';
this returns an error of missing an = sign
I tried:
SET 'd'||'&'||'f' = 1
doesnt work
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Laura

SET DEFINE OFF
will stop interpreting the & sign as starting of a lexical parameter on the client.
Not sure if you have that issue there.
& might also be a not allowed character in normal column names (didn't test).
In that case you might need to put the column name in ".
+example+
{code}
UPDATE aircrafts
SET "d&f" = 1
WHERE aircraft_code = '737';
{code}
Be aware that in this case the column name must be spelled exactly like it was when the table was created.
Included upper/lower case.
{code}
UPDATE aircrafts
SET "D&F" = 1
WHERE aircraft_code = '737';
{code}

Referencing table created column names

probably a really simple solution but I'm having trouble,
when you create a new column in an SQL query:
example - ISNULL(row1, 99999) AS ideal
how do I then reference that column within the same query?
(example - (ideal + 10) AS newideal) When i refer to it as
ideal I get an error stating that
ideal is an invalid column name (presumably meaning it
cannot be found in any of the tables in the from clause.
is there a special prefix i need or other such system in
order to reference columns created within a query whilst still in
said query??
Thanks

Invalid Column Name on db link from 11.2.0.2 Oracle to 11.2.0.2 Gateway

Hello, I am running the Oracle database 11.2.0.2 and using a database link accessing a sql server 2008 R1. The link is working fine, but a table has columns that are greater than 30 chars and Oracle db gateway cannot access this. Does anyone know of a fix or workaround?
Thanks
Jennifer L.

As this is an Oracle database limitation you have to shrink the column name by for example creating a view on the SQL Server side defining aliases for each larger column name and then select from the view rather then from the table directly.

Hello cmcnanna,
I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPhone. If your iPhone isn't starting up or responding at all, you may find the troubleshooting steps outlined in the following article helpful:
If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
If that does not resolve the issue, you will most likely need to have your iPhone evaluated and/or serviced. You may find the following page useful in that case:
