this is the quey i have written.

Hi,
Not sure if I get it, but you can look for characters using the ascii and chr functions.
You can change them using replace:
A new line:
SQL> select ascii('
2 ') from dual;
ASCII('')
        10(Just press enter between the quotes)
Example how to replace it with a space:
SQL> with t as ( -- generating test string:
2 select 'this string has
3 a new line' str from dual
4 )
5 --
6 -- actual query:
7 --
8 select str
9 ,      replace(str, chr(10), chr(32))
10 from   t;
STR                        REPLACE(STR,CHR(10),CHR(32
this string has            this string has a new line
a new lineIf that isn't clear of when I'm missing the point then please post some narrowes down examples of what you get now and your desired output. Remember to put the tag around any code example you're posting.

New line in SQL plus

Hi all,
I would like to include content with a new line into an column of a table. I would like to run the script through SQL plus but because I want a new line in this content, SQL plus determines it as the end of the query.
e.g. update <tablename>
set <columnname> = ' bla bla
bla bla'
Is there a way I can get around this?

Joyce,
Try:
SET SQLBL[ANKLINES] ON

New Line in data file for sql loader

Hi all,
I have a requirement to load a data file in which some of the rows are in new line as given in following example. If i put a '\n' character in control file, then it will load only those records which have newline in them ignoring non new line ones. please have a look at control fileand provide a solution to it :-
32 grand street ~NY~NY
42 riverdrive,
apt 1B ~PL~TX
Richardson road
apt 32~ SF ~CA
As you see there are newline characters in record 2 and 3, right now my control file looks like this -
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'example.txt' "STR '\r\n'"
INTO TABLE "temp_table"
INSERT
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '~'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(ADDRESS1,
CITY,
STATE)
If i remove "STR '\r\n'" , then the data gets loaded into different rows like the third record looks like this -
ADDRESS                         CITY                     STATE
Richardson road null null
apt 32 SF CA
Please help.

Your requirement is very unclear.
Is this your INPUT ?
--record 1
32 grand street ~NY~NY
--record 2
42 riverdrive, --"NL"
apt 1B ~PL~TX
--record 3
Richardson road --"NL"
apt 32~ SF ~CAIs this your OUTPUT?
ADDRESS      CITY STATE
32 grand street NY   NY
42 riverdrive,     null null
apt 1B          PL   TX
Richardson road null null
apt 32           SF   CAAre you using Linux or Windows platform?
You should have only one record terminator character.
*\r\n* is Windows The End of Line character (The Carriage Return + The Line Feed).
"STR '\r\n'" = "str X'0D0A'"
If there is no data after \r\n, columns will be null.

Creating a new line in PLSQL

I am trying to create a new line by returning a variable from a function by coding the following which worked for the last version of HTML_DB and understood that after my variable named vlname I wanted a new line
msg := 'NAME: ' || vlname ||'<br><br>';
When passing back the value of msg now in Application express. This exact code I repeat worked for the last version of HTML_DB.
I don't know why but the new version thinks it's literal
and is displaying the name and then actually prints <br><br>.
Does anyone have a ny suggestions ?
Thanks
Aron

I just did the following:
Created this function:
create function br_test
return varchar2
is
begin
return '<br>qwerty<br>qwerty<br>';
end;Created a blank page with a html region. I then created an an item of type Display as Text (does not save state). Item Source type = PL/SQL expression or function and Source value or expression = br_test.
When I run this qwerty is shown twice on seperate lines. What is different in you case?
Regards Pete

XSLT - inserting new line character

Hi, hoping somebody could help me please.
I'm attempting in 10g to convert a XML purchase-order with multiple detail lines to a CSV delimited output using an XSLT to undertake the transformation. Each line of the purchase-order, namely the header and each detail line must go on separate lines within the CSV file. This means each line must be clearly terminated with a CR-LF.
While I can happily convert the XML purchase-order to CSV format, my experiments in inserting a CR-LF have failed, resulting in all lines collapsed onto one large line.
According to various sources on the Net, inserting the following entry in my XSLT file should generate the new line that I'm looking for:
<xsl:text>ampersand#xa;</xsl:text>(In the above code replace the text "ampersand" with an actual & - I'm unable to display the proper ampersand hash value xa as this HTML page renders it as newline character)
However with no success.
The sample program below shows the conversion process. Anybody any idea on why I'm not seeing the output with new lines?
Your help appreciated.
CM.

How to break the line in Oracle SQL?

Hi All,
I have a long text with comma separated value. I am storing that in to one custom table as it is. But i want to store that with next line i mean split the comma separated line and insert into the table table with next line or new line character.
For example: My long text is A, B, C, D, E, F
I need to insert like below in the table.
A
B
C
D
E
F

We'd also like the reverse functionality: to have the ability to take a single comma-delimited value and treat it as if it were a column in a table. We can take advantage of the TABLE SQL function and PL/SQL function tables to do this quite easily, but first, we must define the result type to be a TABLE type of the largest possible string.
create or replace type split_tbl as table of varchar2(32767);
show errors;
create or replace function split
p_list varchar2,
p_del varchar2 := ','
) return split_tbl pipelined
is
l_idx pls_integer;
l_list varchar2(32767) := p_list;
AA
l_value varchar2(32767);
begin
loop
l_idx := instr(l_list,p_del);
if l_idx > 0 then
pipe row(substr(l_list,1,l_idx-1));
l_list := substr(l_list,l_idx+length(p_del));
else
pipe row(l_list);
exit;
end if;
end loop;
return;
end split;
show errors;
With this function, I can run a query like this:
SQL> select * from table(split('one,two,three'));
one
two
three

Text Area Dialog Could not insert a new line?

Hi,
I've just downloaded a new Oracle SQL Developer (formerly known as project raptor) and have tested-drive this software. I found some dissappointed thing there:
- I would like to insert a long string (several paragraphs) in the data grid editor directly and after I commit the connection, sqldeveloper stripped all my new line (\n)! Is this normal or I've done a mistake here? The datatype of my column is varchar2. I've also tried if the datatype is clob, but the result is the same.
- I dream someday sqldeveloper's data grid editor can show calendar dialog if the column type is DATE just like sqldetective does.
thanks for any suggestion
regrads,
fox

- I would like to insert a long string (several

I've also tried if the datatype is clob, but the

can show calendar dialog if the column type is DATE

Missing white apce and new lines in pdf report output

Ive set up an XSL template to organize the output of a query. The output is missing the new lines and whitespace. I have to believe this is due to the template since the same output viewed in a form is correct. In another thread I have seen that "* {white-space: pre}" is required. Can anyone elaborate on this?

OK, thanks. I must say I've found getting my feet wet with SQL Developer quite a frustrating exercise. I've been using Toad for the last 7+ years and having recently migrated my desktop from Windows to Linux I needed to find a replacement (yes I know about VMWare, Wine, etc but I want to get away from Windows completely if possible).
SQL Developer is a good start, but IMO there are still plenty of rough edges that need knocking off. Maybe I've been spoilt by Toad - and in particular the Toad development team through their support on the mailing lists, but I don't see the same level of support here by the Oracle development team.
Anyway, enough grumbling. Back to work :-)

I have defined a form in Dreamweaver to be used in conjuction with my SQL database (I am using the PHP/SQL). One of the fileds in my form is of type TEXT (as opposed to VAR CHAR). Now, eventhough the text I am entering for that TEXT field has a number of paragraphs, when I read back the TEXT field from the database (via sql SELECT), the data for the TEXT field comes out continuously without paragraps. I don't understand why the paragraph or newline markings are not working when TEXT type data is retrieved from the database. Can someone help me please. Thanks!

This is because HTML ignores new lines. The solution is to use the PHP function nl2br(). Depending on which version of Dreamweaver you're using, you can apply this function through the Bindings panel like this:
This is certainly available in CS4, and maybe in CS3 too; but not earlier versions.
If you're using an earlier version of PHP, wrap the dynamic text in nl2br() like this:
<?php echo nl2br($row_recordsetName['fieldName']); ?>
