Maximum length that a database table field can hold

Hello All,
I am creating a database table to store different values corresponding to a particular feature coming under different countries. Some of the values have to hold more than 700characters, which is basically like a paragraph. I have found that the maximum length a table field can hold is 255characters.
Is there any way by which i can enter more than 500 characters.
Thanks In Advance,
Shino

Hi,
If the Max length that is required is 700 characters then:
1) Isn't it possible in your case to divide the same into mutiple Fields of having 255 length each.
2) In sap there are some tables which store whole Code like table for storing Code for reports in SAP is
REPOSRC But the whole code is first stored in Hexadecimal format and not in terms of direct characters.
May be on same lines you can change the CHARACTER format and then store it and again convertt he same for further use.
You can have look into the Table REPOSRC . May be it helps.
Regards,
Vishal

How to set the maximum length that a user can enter in Msgstyledtextinput

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently using EBS 11.5.1 and 10.2g DB
Is there a way that I can set the maximum length that a user can input?
I changed the Maximum Length to lower number (from 150 to 100) but I get the following error.
Developer Mode Exception encountered in item SaveLocation
Error: The item SaveLocation has a maximum length (100)
         which is not equal to that of the corresponding VO attribute
       , SaveLocation length (150).
Action: Make sure they are equal in size. There must be other way to set that value
Thanks,
Elmer

You have to set the maximum length of column to 150 to avoid this error.
You can set the same in Jdev.
Thanks

Looking for a value in a list stored in a database table field

Hello,
I have a field in a database table that contains a comma
separated list on numbers. In my CFQUERY I am attempting to extract
records from the database table where a parsed number is present in
the comma separated list. I have tried the code below, but it is
throwing an error.
variables.publicationID is the number that I am looking for
in the database table field.
publicationList is the name of the database table field
containing the comma separated list of numbers.
where <cfqueryparam value="#variables.publicationID#"
cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer"> in publicationList
Can anybody help?
Many thanks,
smnbin

The only way to do it with the data model you currently have
is as follows:
WHERE publicationList LIKE '#variables.publicationID#' OR
publicationList LIKE '#variables.publicationID#,%' OR
publicationList LIKE '%,#variables.publicationID#,%' OR
publicationList LIKE '%,#variables.publicationID#'
You need to check for 4 cases:
it's the only ID in the list
it's the first ID in the list
it's in the middle of the list
it's the last ID in the list.
The better solution would be to replace this comma-delimited
list with a mapping table, where each row in this mapping table
contains a reference to the main table as well as a single
publicationID.

How do I identify the maximum length of video in iMovie which can be made into a dvd in iDVD, please?

How do I identify the maximum length of video in iMovie which can be made into a dvd in iDVD, please?
I made a sellection of video clips > pressed on "share" > on iDVD > after one hour of formating the message was under "project duration" : "Your project exceeds the maximum content duration. To burn your DVD, change the encoder setting in the Project Info window."
I have edited out some of the clips and waited anothe hour or so bu the same message appeared !
I want to know in advance how long can be the video clip sellection for the quality of video chosen ( the best before HD).
please help if ou can.
thank you very much indeed.

It's trying to tell you to change the encoding setting:
iDVD encoding settings:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iDVD/7.0/en/11417.html
Short version:
Best Performance is for videos of up to 60 minutes
Best Quality is for videos of up to 120 minutes
Professional Quality is also for up to 120 minutes but even higher quality (and takes much longer)
That was for single-layer DVDs. Double these numbers for dual-layer DVDs.
Professional Quality: The Professional Quality option uses advanced technology to encode your video, resulting in the best quality of video possible on your burned DVD. You can select this option regardless of your project’s duration (up to 2 hours of video for a single-layer disc and 4 hours for a double-layer disc). Because Professional Quality encoding is time-consuming (requiring about twice as much time to encode a project as the High Quality option, for example) choose it only if you are not concerned about the time taken.
In both cases the maximum length includes titles, transitions and effects etc. Allow about 15 minutes for these.
You can use the amount of video in your project as a rough determination of which method to choose. If your project has an hour or less of video (for a single-layer disc), choose Best Performance. If it has between 1 and 2 hours of video (for a single-layer disc), choose High Quality. If you want the best possible encoding quality for projects that are up to 2 hours (for a single-layer disc), choose Professional Quality. This option takes about twice as long as the High Quality option, so select it only if time is not an issue for you.
Use the Capacity meter in the Project Info window (choose Project > Project Info) to determine how many minutes of video your project contains.
NOTE: With the Best Performance setting, you can turn background encoding off by choosing Advanced > “Encode in Background.” The checkmark is removed to show it’s no longer selected. Turning off background encoding can help performance if your system seems sluggish.
And whilst checking these settings in iDVD Preferences, make sure that the settings for NTSC/PAL and DV/DV Widescreen are also what you want.

What is maximum length of oracle database objects name

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what is maximum length of oracle database objects name .
I guess it is 30 ,correct me if i am wrong thank you.
regards,
P Prakash

Some objects (like synonyms or java classes) can have longer names than 30 chars:
SQL> create or replace synonym empempempempempempempempempempempempemp for emp
Synonym created.though internally oracle will generate short names for such objects:
SQL> select synonym_name from user_synonyms where synonym_name like '%EMPEMPEM%'
SYNONYM_NAME
/969ea190_EMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEM
1 row selected.and not always will the long name be actually usable:
SQL> select * from empempempempempempempempempempempempemp
Error at line 1
ORA-00972: identifier is too long

Hi,
One approach is:
check lt_mytable is initial.
This will be true if there are no lines.
Another:
describe table lt_mytable lines lv_count
if lv_count = 0.

What's the maximum size of data a coherence cluster can hold?

What's the maximum size of data a coherence cluster can hold before it starts noticing a degradation in performance?
Assume a partitioned topology is used with only one backup for each partition.

Hi,
Coherence partitioned cache is designed for linear scalability and it does it quite well. I don't see any reasons of performance degrations with increase in data size given, you have enough cores and memory for processing the requests and managing the data.

To clear field from database table MARV us UPDATE command (Please be careful... one should not make changes in master tables using reports)

How to make data entries in a database table field as a hyperlink?

Hello all,
I am designing an application in BSP. The requirement is to make some of the entries in the database
tables as hyperlink values.
I have a database table which has a field "country feature". The scenario is that the user can enter any value in this field through view. The value can be a hyperlink or a free text, depending on the user requirement.
Is there any way by which the user can enter hyperlink values in the particular field in a database table?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Gurmahima.

Hey Gurmahima ,
This is sample code for Selecting and deselecting all the checkboxes .
All you have to do is Set a pf-status and follow the code logic .
Here w_check is the check box field , w_line is the line your raeding and w_lines is the total number of lines(entries ) you have in table .
set pf-status 'SELECT' .
case sy-ucomm .
    when 'SELECTALL' .
      set pf-status 'SELECT' excluding 'SELECTALL' immediately.
      w_line = w_line + 3 .
      do w_lines times .
        read line w_line field value w_check .
        if w_check = space .
          w_check = 'X' .
          modify line w_line field value w_check.
          add 1 to w_line .
        endif .                        " IF W_CHECK = ' '
      enddo .                          " DO W_LINES TIMES
      clear w_line .
    when 'DESELECT' .
      set pf-status 'SELECT' excluding 'DESELECT' immediately.
      w_line = w_line + 3 .
      do w_lines times .
        read line w_line field value w_check .
        if w_check = 'X' .
          w_check = space .
          modify line w_line field value w_check .
          add 1 to w_line .
        endif .                        " IF W_CHECK = 'X' .
      enddo .                          " DO W_LINES TIMES
      clear w_line .
Hope you get it!

Database Table Fields Display - Alpha only?

When you are working with dynamic sites, and have the
database tables interface open.. if you click a table, the fields
come up in alphabetic order, rather than table order. This is very
different than most tools. Is there a way to disable the
alphabetizing and just show the table fields in table order (i.e
keys first, etc) ??
Thanks/

Hi Swarna
Try this code.
DATA:
T_ITAB LIKE TABLE OF ZTABLE,
FS_ITAB LIKE LINE OF T_ITAB,
WA_ITAB TYPE ZTABLE-REVIEW_CYCLE .
SELECT * FROM ZTABLE INTO TABLE T_ITAB.
SORT T_ITAB DESCENDING BY REVIEW_CYCLE .
READ TABLE T_ITAB INTO FS_ITAB INDEX 1.
MOVE FS_ITAB-REVIEW_CYCLE TO WA_ITAB.
LOOP AT T_ITAB INTO FS_ITAB.
IF FS_ITAB-REVIEW_CYCLE EQ WA_ITAB.
    WRITE:/
       FS_ITAB-REVIEW_CYCLE ,
       FS_ITAB-REVIEW_STEP,
       FS_ITAB-GUID.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
