Problem in converting the date format in Second's place

I am developing an application using OAF in JDeveloper.
I have to pass the current date from my page to a quary to filter the data.
I used the following:
String PresentDate=this.getOADBTransaction().getCurrentDBDate().toString();
However it is sending a date like '2011-03-22 17:04:14.0'. Here if you see the seconds place, it has a fraction as well.
I need to convert it by using TO_DATE(PresentDate, 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS')
But because of the fraction in Seconds place, it gives an error.
Can anyone help me to solve this problem?
Thanks & Regards
Hawker

Hawker,
Instead of that use..
//Calling dateValue( ) does not include time.
long sysdate = transaction.getCurrentDBDate().dateValue();

How to convert the date format 'm/d/yyyy hh:mi:ss AM' to 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:M'

How can i convert a the date format 'm/d/yyyy hh:mi:ss AM' to 'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM' in Oracle
I have a query
select UPPER(t.val_10) "TYPE", count(val_3) "Number of Transfers"
from table1 t
where t.is_active = 1
and t.val_4 = 'INBOUND'
and to_date(to_date(val_5,'MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM'), 'DD/MM/YY') between to_date(to_date('01/08/2008 00:00:00','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'DD/MM/YY') and add_months(to_date(to_date('01/08/2008 00:00:00','DD/MM/YYYY HH24:MI:SS'), 'DD/MM/YY'),1)
group by UPPER(t.val_10)
order by UPPER(t.val_10)
I get the error [ORA-01861: literal does not match format string which i think is because
val_5 has the values in the following format:
8/29/2008 6:31:10 PM
Does anyone have an answer?
Thanks in advance

first off, you've got to_date(to_date(...)) - NEVER do this - you're forcing an implicit to_char which can cause all sorts of problems!
What is the data type of your column val_5? If it's DATE then your query is simply:
select UPPER(t.val_10) "TYPE",
       count(val_3) "Number of Transfers"
from   table1 t
where t.is_active = 1
and    t.val_4 = 'INBOUND'
and    val_5 between to_date('01/08/2008','DD/MM/YYYY') and add_months(to_date('01/08/2008','DD/MM/YYYY') ,1)
group by UPPER(t.val_10)
order by UPPER(t.val_10)If it's a varchar2 (why, oh why, oh why, ...?!), then your query should be:
select UPPER(t.val_10) "TYPE",
       count(val_3) "Number of Transfers"
from   table1 t
where t.is_active = 1
and    t.val_4 = 'INBOUND'
and    to_date(val_5, 'mm/dd/yyyy hh:mi:ss AM') between to_date('01/08/2008','DD/MM/YYYY') and add_months(to_date('01/08/2008','DD/MM/YYYY') ,1)
group by UPPER(t.val_10)
order by UPPER(t.val_10)Remember that dates in DATE format are stored in an internal Oracle format - in order for you to tell Oracle that your string is a date, you need to use to_date. When you want to retrieve a date, you need to use to_char to put it into the format you want to see it in.
Remember also that your nls_date_format defines the default format that you'll see a date, which is what is used in the implicit conversion that oracle does when you select a date:
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='dd/mm/yyyy hh24:mi:ss';
Session altered.
SQL> select sysdate from dual;
SYSDATE
26/03/2009 11:01:53
1 row selected.
SQL> alter session set nls_date_format='mm/dd/yy hh12:mi:ss AM';
Session altered.
SQL> select sysdate from dual;
SYSDATE
03/26/09 11:02:24 AM
1 row selected.It doesn't make sense to convert something that's already in a DATE format into a DATE format - in order to do that, oracle has to first change the date into a string, and it does that by using the nls_date_format parameter setting - if you're working with dates-in-strings that are in a different format, then all sorts of problems arise, as you have found out!

      year(4),
      month(2),
      day(2).
year = '2006'.
month = '12'.
day = '01'.
date+0(4) = year.
date+4(2) = month.

And now i want to convert all date format to YYYY/MM/DD , Is it possibile to do that ?
Here is my code , but it doesn't work . It returned "2009//3//5" format .
data: ld_date_int type datum.
data : test(10) type c.
test = '2009/3/5' .
ld_date_int = test .
WRITE : SY-SUBRC , LD_DATE_int .
Does SAP provide a standard function can convert the date format ?
Thanks .

HT3345 Importing from xls problems with the date format (mixed european format)

Hi.
I made some spreadsheets with Neo Office and saved them in xls format. So I can import them in numbers, doing so in OpenOffice, LibreOffice or even the worst in Mircosoft Office on a PC works just fine. But importing them with Numbers 2.0.4 it just don't work.
I have Mac OSX 10.5.8 and a PowerPC G4 1,67 GHz.
The date format in all other programs is " 21.05.2011" and numbers creates "21/05/2011" out of it. Although my international setting is set to 23.05.2012. It defines the cells as my own format and takes than the totally wrong format.
Does anyone know how to solve this problem, or how to change all the weird own formats in my international setting, which would be correct.
Best regards.

Hi Franklin,
I used to have similar problem with date too. To make my forms and reports work for all date, I used to send the parameter from forms to the report in text format. In the report, I grab that parameter as "Text Format" (I mean the parameter created in Oracle Reports was really as Character in datatype property) then I manipulate them in my SQL to convert that "date" into real date using TO_DATE function. Usually I use DD-MM-YYYY as my date format.
Hope this help.

Franko Lioe
Hello friends at www.oracle.com,
when I sent some informations to Reports, one of these informations was a date field. Here, the format mask may vary from one computer to another - some computers here are using american date format; however, my computer was using brazilian date format.
The fact is that I was sending date information to Reports using the mask dd/mm/yyyy, and Reports (in the computer that uses american date format) couldn't recognize it, stating that I was sending an invalid month. So I had to change my date information to dd-mon-yyyy and Reports could run in the other computer, but doesn't run here anymore - fact that obligated me to change my date format to american format.
Is there any way for me to use a date format mask that's valid to all computers here? If other computers - with other format masks - meet the same problem, the use of this program may become something very complicated.
Thanks for all answers,
Franklin Gongalves Jr.

Convert the date of string to datetime format 'MM/dd/yyyy' when the system date format is 'dd/MM/yyyy'.

I need convert the date of string format 'MM/dd/yyyy' to datetime format 'MM/dd/yyyy' when the system date format is 'dd/MM/yyyy'.Since
I need to search values based on date where my database datetime is 'MM/dd/yyyy' format.

In my opinion you should re-consider the assumption that the date picker returns a string. Maybe it is able to return a
DateTime object directly instead of string. Then you will pass this value as a parameter of SQL query. This should work regardless of computer configuration.
Otherwise, follow the previous string-based approaches.

actually by using dats or d type you can get the user specific date itself.
but if u have different dates format that need to be converted to the user specific date then you can follow below procedure
1. retrieve the user format from usr01
    SELECT SINGLE datfm
      INTO w_datfm
      FROM usr01
     WHERE bname EQ sy-uname.
pass w_datfm to the below FM (4th import parameter)
2. create Z - FM and retrieve the user secific date

Problem in Date Format when user chages the date format in preferences

I want to generalize my code so that user can change what ever Date format he wants, I will get the date from the page in the format yyyy-mm-dd, and if the Date Format is
set to MM/dd/yyyy in prefernces i need to use MM/dd/yyyy and if the Date Format is set to dd-Mon-yyyy in prefernces i need to use dd-MMM-yy, so my question is how to know what Date format is set in the preference so that i can have all the possible date format for inserting the date
Thanks
Babu

Babu,
The date format in OAF Pages is controlled by profile ICX: Date format mask.This profile can be set at site as well as user level for the individual users to set the Date format.
But I would advice not to go for setting different profile values at user level, because i remember some old threads, where seeded Oracle pages fail, as code their is not generalised to handle date formats.
If your are planning to have this in ur custom page, go ahead, but do check the entire flow is working fine for different values of this profile at user level.

String conversion gives error when converting to date format

Hello,
I need to convert a character to a date format. The character string is 201053131415151 where the first eight characters represent YYYYMMDD. The string may also be null ( second value). I used the following select statement
select distinct sysdate "Run Date",
rcreviewdate "Review Date",
nvl((to_char(substr(rcreviewdate,1,8))),'None') "Review Date2"
and got the following result.
Run Date Review Date Review Date2
30-NOV-09 201005131415151 20100513
30-NOV-09
1. Why is "None" not returned for the secord valule which is null?
2. How can the valule "20100513" be converted to DD-MON-YY ( the date format)?
to_date(substr(rcreviewdate,1,8),'YYYYMMDD') gives the following error with the null value
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

TO_DATE will return NULL if its 1st argument is NULL, so it looks like reviewdate is not NULL.
You can use LTRIM (among other functions) to remove spaces from reviewdate, if that's the problem.
Post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements), and the results you want from that data.
