Is it possible to change data during a selection

Hi,
is this possible??
E.g. I've a table with a column "first name" and I want to change each appearance of "xy" with some other value.
I tried it with an update order at the end of the select statement but didn't work.
Anybody some suggestions??
so long

Why are you restricted to select?
You can do this easly using an update.
update mytable
set first_name = replace(first_name,'xy','other_string');
Which would change ALL occurances of xy in every record to 'other_value'

  • Possible to change date format when importing files into Aperture 3

    Just wondering if it is possible to change the format of the date from YYYY-MM-DD to YYYYMMDD when you rename files as they are imported into Aperture 3? I typically rename my files and insert my initials, date the photo was taken, sequence number, camera used and original file name. When I do this in Aperture 3, the date format used includes dashes. I would like to have the file renamed without the dashes in the date. Is this possible?

    You should be able to edit the format in the import presets. I have done this for folder stucture of imports, I believe you can do the same for the file renaming. At the bottom of the drop down box for file naming at improt should be an edit option which brings up the import naming presets, select the "YYYY-MM-DD" and remove the dashes.

  • Is it possible ?Change data capture from VSAM , DB2 , SQL Server  to Oracle

    Dear Professionals ,
    We plan to build a warehouse project.Source systems are
    * VSAM files in zOS
    * SQL Server
    * DB2
    Warehouse database is Oracle .
    Every night the changes in the source systems will be applied to Oracle warehouse DB.
    But only the changes will be applied . Exporting VSAM files to flat file and load to oracle and find the data differences in Oracle is not accepted. Or moving the entire tables to oracle and finding the changes in oracle is not accepted.Only the changes will pass through the network .
    Is "Oracle Connect" and "VSAM adaptor" capable of this ?
    Is there a solution for SQL Server and DB2 change data capture ?
    Is it Possible ? If possible is it a headache or a simple install and forget process?
    Thank you
    Bunyamin..

    Bunyamin,
    I do not know about VSAM, but I heard/read that Oracle Data Integrator is able to do change data capture on several databases. It uses the source database mechanism to do CDC. So maybe give it a try at the fusion middleware forum where ODI is being discussed

  • Is it possible to change date format in Web Dynpro?

    Hi,
    I have an input field that is mapped to a context data type of date.  It is showing me the data in the format of "mm/dd/yyyy".
    Is it possible for me to change this format to "dd/mm/yyyy"?
    I know it is possible to alter the Regional Setting in a Windows box.  What about Solaris box?  Are there specific properties within Web Dynpro that I could set so that I do not have to remember to change it everytime.  I have a few environments that I need to deploy to, so it makes sense for me to set the format into Web Dynpro.

    Hi Stefan,
    Could you be more elaborate?  What happens after that?  How do I populate data from the database to this new type?
    Currently, I can't find the Base Type of "date" in the lookup box.  Do you mean the Built-In Type?
    Thanx.

  • Is it possible to change fps during runtime? in Flash CS4 (AS3)

    hi,
    I was wondering if there is a way to change fps(Frames Per Second) during run time using AS3.
    is there? if so is it recommended? or is there a way to slow down the execution of the code(like adding a pause?)
    Thank you for attributing anything related!

    You can use the stage.frameRate property to eadr or set the fps rate during run time.  The only way to really pause code from executing is to build the paused code into a function and delay calling that function using some form of a timer (like setTimeout).

  • Is it possible to change values in pagination select list for a report?

    The values showing up in my pagination select list for a report are 10,15,20,30,50,100,200,500,1000,5000.
    Is it possible to not have this list show the 1000 and 5000 values? I've tried setting various row values in the layout and pagination section of the report, but nothing changes in the select list. Is there a way to change this, or is it set up in a template somewhere that I can change?
    APEX version 3.0
    Thanks

    Figured this one out. Using the P1_ROWS item, added a static LOV with the correct values to override the one APEX was providing. The P1_ROWS item goes in the Number of Rows (Item) field in the layout and pagination section of the report.

  • Need to change data in an idoc

    Is there any possibility to change data of a segment without generating another idoc?, when i save data in we05 it generates another idoc, and i don´t want to.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    Hi,
    As far as know you can do this only in an user exit for the idoc.
    Find some user exits in the processing code of the idoc which you are using.
    In that write the code to modify the data before the idoc gets posted.
    If you try to use WE19 to change data of an existing idoc and post it then it will always create a new idoc.
    Hope it was useful.
    Thanks,
    Sandeep.

  • Change data source dynamically

    is it possible to change data source dynamically when using ibatis frame work...?

    We don't need a Java reporting tool to change data source dynamically.
    In Oracle Reports we can use:
    - lexical parameters
    - dynamic ref cursors
    - XML runtime customization

  • Input data during dynamic vi call

    Hi guys. Is it possible to input data during a dynamic VI call?
    For eg, i have a car.vi When i call this vi dynamically, i want to also input the value turn left or turn right. How do i acheive this in LV?

    hi there
    use a invoke node on the VIs reference and call the "Set control value" method to set values of controls during execution of the dynamic VI. Use "Get control value" to retrieve values from indicators.
    another possible solution would be the usage of a so called LV2 style global a.k.a. FGV (functional global variable). this needs more drawing but is much more efficient and powerful.
    DO NOT use simple global variables.
    Best regards

  • Is it possible to change the dimension order when extracting data from HFM?

    Hello,
    When accessing Consolidation/Extract/Data is it possible to change the dimension order of the extract rather than extracting the standard order?
    I can see you can change the dimension order visually by going to "Reorder dimensions" but this does not carry through to the actual extract.
    If its not possible using this method is there another method? Trying to avoid using smartview for this purpose.
    Many thanks and kind regards,
    Rich

    Hi,
    No, it is not possible to change the order type.

  • I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug.  I want to sync my data - contacts most important  - from my itunes account...is this possible?  Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

    I recently lost my iphone 4 and have an iphone3 on loan until I get upgrade in Aug.  I want to sync my data - contacts most important  - from my itunes account...is this possible?  Is it possible to change the user ID on the borrowed phone to my ID?

    There are no contacts in itunes.
    Your contact should be on your computer in whatever program you have selected to sync.  Just sync them to the new one.
    Click Support at the top of this page, then click manuals
    Changing the itunes account on nthe iphone is covered there as is restoring the iphone as new or from backup.

  • Possible to validate data entries during Digital Signature?

    I have a form that was built from scratch using Adobe LiveCycle  Designer ES 8.2. I also have Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.3.2. (WinXP)
    I  see numerous articles online related to validating user input prior to  data submission for an online form via a Submit button, however, I  am trying to figure out how to implement the same sort of data  validation during the signing of a particular digital signature field in an offline pdf form. Simply, I want to perform data validation during a digital  signature instead of when user presses Submit button.
    Here's my  use-case:
    1. Form Originator fills out a large number of data fields  and signs form via a CAC cert.
    2. Another person will review,  possibly edit/add data, and sign another signature block with CAC.
    3.  Then there is one more final CAC signature on the form before it is  completed and then emailed to the right folks for processing.
    4. I  would like to be able to enforce the population of several Mandatory  data fields (at least one Radio button and one text input, possibly  others) before the 3rd signature can be applied to the document.
    Again, I  need to emphasize this is all happening in an offline form, no data  submission or database back-end. Also, everything with the digital  signatures (and locking up fields afterword) works totally fine, just interested  in adding Data Validation capability during Digital Signature.
    I am in no way a javascript expert, but I can  probably learn from a good example. Any help or guidance is very much appreciated. Thanks...

    If you are using SignatureField in the form then you will get two events preSign and postSign which you can use to validate the field input just like you do with a Submit button.
    Thanks

  • Macro Question: Possible to change master data?

    I have found a few macros that supposedly work to change the master data for infoobjects (MATLOC_SET()...etc.) however when lauching these in the planning book i can see no change in the infoobject master data.
    The idea is to change an attribute of an infoobject to remove the item from the selection within the planning book (i.e. change the planning type from A to B). The client wants this done directly from the planning book via a macro. Is this possible with the macro above or do I need to use a Bapi?
    Thanx!

    Thank you for the response!
    The macro that I am using is directly from the 9Aexamples template. When executing the macro it asks for the field name and the value to be entered, trying various field names we have seen no change in the master data.
    The reason for this is that we are working with a client that has thousands of products with various profiles. The client would like to have the capacity to execute a macro and remove the product out of the selection directly from the planning book. We thought this would be possible by changing the master data for the infoobject navagational attributes via a macro.
    Any additional help would be appreciated!  Thanx again!
