OMBPLUS Error OMB01701 on lowercase column name

Hi, I am trying to rename columns on tables that have been imported into OWB from a Sybase database with mixed and lowercase column names. However I get the OMB01701 error.
I can see these columns looking at a dummy table I created also by importing from an Oracle database.
OMB+> OMBRETRIEVE TABLE 'test_table2' GET COLUMNS
UPPER_COLUMN lower_col Mixed_Col
Issuing this command fails
OMB+> OMBALTER TABLE 'test_table2' MODIFY COLUMN 'lower_col' RENAME TO 'LOWER_COL'
OMB01701: Column lower_col not found.
As does this
OMB+> OMBRETRIEVE TABLE 'test_table2' COLUMN 'lower_col' GET PROPERTIES (DATATYPE)
OMB01701: Column lower_col not found.
Is there any way I can reference these lowercase / mixed case columns in OMBPLUS and rname them to uppercase ?
Thanks,
Phil

Hey Oleg, thanks for the reply and the code snippet. Shame about the bug ... we need the columns in uppercase in the OWB repository, as we are running various TCL scripts over the imported sybase tables which don't work well on lowercase column names. We have a few hundred to do.
I have tried the snippet you supplied in the Design Centre OMB Plus window and a DOS OMB Plus window to no avail. The line that gets an error is 'set yourModule [$project findGatewayModule $moduleName]' (I stepped through each line till the error occured).

How to resolve unresolved column error when we change column name in BMM Layer and removed alias in presentation layer

how to resolve unresolved column error when we change column name in BMM Layer and removed alias in presentation layer

Looks like the presentation column got Alias before your BMM changes, so in your case renaming logical column and deleting alias is not good to go.

JDBC ResultSet lowercase Column names

Hi,
My group has a body of DBMS access beans which use lowercase column names for result set get(s)* ..ie rs.getString("empno");.
Are current JDBC context uses KIVA\NAS.
We've recently attempted to use these beans under Oracle JDBC OCI (type 2). We've noticed that Oracle JDBC prefers rs.getString("EMPNO") .. or rs.getString(1).
Is there a way around this? Or do we have some serious changing to do?
Thanks in advance.

The column names our current driver takes in getString() is not case-sensitive. I am not sure whether that was the case with some previous versions. Is it possible that you can try it on the 8.1.6 driver?

Database Querry error when using # in column name

I am using the Database toolkit to work with a MySQL database.
Some of the columns in the database have names with special characters:
Batch# and Employee#. The database tools give me an error when I
try to write data to those fields. I have tried square brackets
around the column name [Batch#] but that doesn't seem to help. Is
there a way to update these fields with the Database tools?
Here is the errror:

Hi Anuj,
Yes i am using SOA Suite 11g and i have chosen the right platform class as i am able to insert into other tables in DB2.The problem is in one table which has # appended in the column name.e.g.
'abc#'.# charater is not supported in the wizard as the column name and that is why this error.I changed from backend and than tested i got the same error in the em.I need way to handle the columns have names like 'abc#'.
Thanks

Return column name in lowcase

Hi,
how can I make Oracle ODBC Driver (8.01.72.00) returning column name in small letters ?
Thanks for any help.

Pardon my stupidity, but I'm still a little confused. Perhaps it's too early in the morning...
If you create a table foo in Oracle, i.e.
create table foo (
col1 varchar2,
col2 integer )
col1 & col2 are stored as uppercase in the database, although queries against the table are case-insensitive. For instance
select col1 from foo;
select COL1 from foo;
select cOl1 from foo;
all return the same thing
If you instead create a table
create table foo (
"col1" varchar2,
"col2" integer )
col1 & col2 are stored as case-sensitive column names, in this case lower case. Because the column names are case-sensitive,
the SQL statement
select "col1" from foo;
will return the correct data, while
select col1 from foo;
will cause an error.
Is this helpful to you? I guess I'm not sure where it is that you're generating or gathering column names, so I'm not sure how much control you have.
If you're gathering column names by making calls to catalog functions like SQLTables, I assume you can simply use the appropriate LOWER() function call to create lowercase column names.
If you can explain in a little more detail, preferrably with reference to the particular ODBC calls you're making, I might be able to help a little more.

How To Create Table View With Same Column name But Different Table?

Hi All,
I have the problem to create a tableview with same column name but in different table.
The Table that i have:-
Table - PAC051MPROFORMA

Create App From Spreadsheet: "column name is an Oracle reserved word"

I'm creating an App from a spreadsheet on apex.oracle.com (3.0.0.00.20 at time of writing) and receiving the error "The identified column name is an Oracle reserved word. Please choose another name."
I've tried adding an underscore to the end of each column name in order to avoid having to check every column name (yup, lazy) but that didn't remove the error, nor is any column name identified by the interface.
Thoughts?

Hi David,
There was a bug at one time where reserved words were not being checked properly when creating columns. A particular problem related to names beginning with "SYS".
Try adding the underscore in front of the column name.

Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:

>> I need to select from a dynamic column name and save the result in a variable, but seem to be having trouble with the values being fed to sp_executesql <<
This is so very, very wrong! A column is an attribute of an entity. The idea that you are so screwed up that you have no idea if you want
the shoe size, the phone number or something else at run time of this entity.
In Software Engineering we have a principle called cohesion that says a model should do one and only one task, have one and only one entry point, and one and only one exit point.
Hey, on a scale from 1 to 10, what color is your favorite letter of the alphabet? Yes, your mindset is that level of sillyity and absurdity.
Do you know that SQL is a declarative language? This family of languages does not use local variables!
Now think about “month_val” and what it means. A month is a temporal unit of measurement, so this is as silly as saying “liter_val” in your code. Why did you use “sp_” on a procedure? It has special meaning in T-SQL.
Think about how silly this is:
SET @month_val = 'Month' + CAST(@month_nbr AS VARCHAR(2));
We do not do display formatting in a query. This is a violation of at the tiered architecture principle. We have a presentation layer. But more than that, the INTERVAL temporal data type is a {year-month} and never just a month. This is fundamental.
We need to see the DDL so we can re-write this mess. Want to fix it or not?

Lowercase first letter in column name of non-interactive report

I have a report from this query:
SELECT DISTINCT
v.isotope, v.location,
v.activity_in_ucuries as "uCi"
FROM inventory v
where v.location = 'IN PROCESS'
and v.activity_in_ucuries > 0
Note 'as "uCi"' - when the report displays the lowercase u is displayed as an uppercase U
In the column attributes , I have set the column heading as lowercase. In the report attributes I have Heading Type set as custom
and the column heading shows lowercase. I have also tried using the a heading type of Column Names. With all of these changes the
report still comes out with an uppercase U.
Is there a way to prevent the automatic set of the first letter to Uppercase or alternatively, force the first letter to lowercase?
Thanks
Donna

I am using theme 13. I don't have any experience changing the templates, so the report template has the following in Column Headings:
<th#ALIGNMENT# id="#COLUMN_HEADER_NAME#" class="t13ReportHeader">#COLUMN_HEADER#</th>
Can I make a change in here to prevent the transformation of the 1st character to uppercase? (I would also love to change the u to mu!)
I do have a test application in theme 3 that seems to preserve whatever case I enter it in...I suppose I can change themes, but I would like to stick with theme 13 if possible.
Thanks for any additional help.
