Oracle SQL Developer - File, Open , File Name Not Accept UNC Path Form

In Oracle SQL Developer, at least the File, Open (Dialog's), the File Name (if not all File / Directory Name) Text Box(es) is (are) not accepting, at least for me, the UNC Path Form of Folders on Network Servers. The same UNC Path (or UNC Paths in general) works in the File / Directory Name Text Box of every other Windows App I've tried (from Windows 95 to Windows 7). Is there a way to do this? If not, was it intentional and where can I suggest this as a fix / enhancement?
I'm using Windows XP w/ SP3.

DUH! I figured out what happened. In my first search, I searched (using "Actions", "Filter", "Column" option) for "Title Contains 'UNC'" which didn't find anything because the single-quotes were considered literals (which isn't consistent with the "Row" option or with the technical SQL syntax one would expect given technical operators like "!=", pffft, "!="??? Really???). Then, all subsequent searches returned nothing, because all previous searches are combined with implied "And" Operators until you select "Actions", "Reset" (which isn't consistent with any Web / Desktop App search feature I've ever seen). Don't get me wrong. The latter is a great feature. It just needs to be documented better.
It probably wouldn't hurt to: a) include easily visible tips on whether single / double quotes are needed and b) show an "And" Operator in front of each previous search listed so people won't mistake it for simply a Search Criteria History vs. Current Search Criteria, oh and add a heading that labels it as, oh, IDK, "Current Search Criteria", maybe? IDK, call me crazy (or just another stupid user posing as a developer with 16 years experience ;).

  • Oracle SQL Developer  error - "The file-based source procedure Name is not present in the database."

    I recently started working on the Oracle SQL developer. I have 'select' privileges on the QA schema and when tried to execute proc in QA. It is giving the error as 'The file-based source <procedure Name>  is not present in the database.  Was it compiled?'
    instead 'you do not have sufficient privileges to execute this procedure'. Did research on internet but with no luck.What configuration changes needed to be done to make it work.Guide me.

    Sounds like you do not have the correct privileges.  What should have been granted to you by the QA user, or some other user with appropriate privileges, is...
    grant EXECUTE on "QA"."<PROCEDURE_OF_INTEREST>" to "<YOUR_USERID>" ;
    Note that a grant of execute on a procedure has nothing to do with grants of select on some or all of QA's tables and views.
    So, as Vadim suggests, from your connection node in SQL Developer's Connections view, if you expand the Other Users node, then expand QA and look in the Procedures node, do you see the procedure of interest?  If not, you cannot expect to be able to execute it from your userid's connection. And even if you do see it, you may have some other privilege that permits viewing but not executing, like...
    The role SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege SELECT ANY DICTIONARY
    And even if you do not see it there, then having certain other privileges granted to you could permit executing it in general, like...
    The role EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
    Also, note that the 3.0 release is a bit dated nowadays. Upgrading to 4.0.3 production or even the 4.1 EA2 (early adopter) release will, in general, give you a better experience.

  • How to use Oracle SQL Developer 4.0 to connect to Ms Access file with .accdb extension

    Hi all,
    I am using Oracle SQL Developer 4.0 and Ms Access 2013 under Windows 7 (64 bits)
    After browsing and selecting MS Access file with accdb extention, I got  an error message  :[Microsoft] " Data source name not found and no default driver specified".
    On Administravitve Tools=> ODBC Data Source Administrator=>Drivers I have                                                File                                date

    Would you please advise?
    Thank you very much in advance

    That MS Access driver is 64-bit, I think.  If SQL Developer, or JDK is 32-bit you need to use the 32-bit driver.   You can see if you have a 32-bit driver installed using  c:\windows\system32\odbcadm32.exe

    I got it too if I left SQl Developer open then go to Excel to edit my CSV - got message 'table_export.csv is locked for editing by another user'. If I close SQL Developer then open the file, it works. Seems SQL Developer's holding onto the file after creation.

  • How to insert data from *.dmp file to  oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Develope

    hi
    i backup my database using PL/SQL developer and made *.dmp file
    how to insert data from *.dmp file to oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64
    and how to make *.dmp file from sql*plus ?
    thanks in advance

    Pl/Sql developer has a config window, there you choose the exec to do the import/export.
    Find it and his home version, it may be exp or expdp, the home version is the version of the client where the exp executable is.
    Then use the same version of imp or impdp to execute the import, you do not need to use Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64. If you want to use it, you must have the same version in the oracle home that exp/imp of sql developer use.

  • How to execute command(program) from external file in Oracle SQL developer

    Hi,
    Does anyone know, Oracle SQL developer version 1.0.0.14.67 got any function that can execute command from an external file?
    Example, i have 100 insert SQL inside a text file,
    and i want to use Oracle SQL developer to execute it. How do i read from my text file? Thanks a lots.

    If you're new to Oracle, do yourself and us a favour: read some tutorials and manuals. What sqldev's worth, better download the latest version (1.1.2), lots of fixes and enhancements...
    Now for the big popper: to run an external file: @file
    Best of luck,

  • Oracle SQL Developer (Not seeing object names within the interface)

    Hello,
    I was finally able to perform an export/import from our production environment to our training environment. Anyway, this was done using the SYS account and for some reason, I have an issue where in Oracle SQL Developer, there are no object names being displayed, but the objects do exist within SQLPLUS if I should query the table.
    The following error message displays when I refresh any of the objects folders within SQL Developer:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    I'm pretty new to the Oracle DBA space but not to SQL Server Ah. The first thing you need to do is check everything you think you know about rdbms at the door. The similarity between SQL Server and Oracle ends right after SELECT * FROM EMP.
    Even the term "database" has different meanings.
    First thing I see, in your original post, is that you did the export/import as SYS. Was this "as sysdba"?
    From Oracle® Database Utilities
    10g Release 2 (10.2):
    Invoking Export and Import As SYSDBA
    SYSDBA is used internally and has specialized functions; its behavior is not the same as for generalized users. Therefore, you should not typically need to invoke Export or Import as SYSDBA, except in the following situations:
    * At the request of Oracle technical support
    * When importing a transportable tablespace set
    so it's quite possible that I missed something during the import/export of the environments.
    Are there any system tables that get invoked when you click on any of the objects within the connection?

  • Import SQL Developer xml History files to a table

    I'd like to import my SQL Developer xml history files into an Oracle table. What's the best way to do this?

    I had some success in Pages 1, but I've only tried a couple of times so far in Pages 2 without success. The trick was to make sure the table is the exact number of columns wide. It's very "klunky" but I've ended up converting the tab-delimited text to a table in AppleWorks, saving the AppleWorks file with the table as a "floating" object (fixed objects don't translate) & opening the file in Pages. It's quicker & easier for most of what I do to just drag & drop in Pages.
