Select changing decimal separator type

I'm consulting a database which use comma "," as a decimal separator for numbers. I would like to make a select which takes those numbers using point "." as a decimal separator.
for example I have a value 1,34 in the database, I would the make a select which returns this value as 1.34

  • How change decimal separator from . to ,

    Hi
    I need change the decimal separator from . to ,
    and apply ZZZ.ZZ9,99
    thanks

    There are a number of ways in which you can change these characters. They can be changed for all jobs by updating the jfmerge.ini, or for a single job by using command line options.
    You can update the jfmerge.ini either in an editor, or by using Central Control.
    In an editor you will update the entries for CurrencyComma (, by default) and CurrencyDot (. by default).
    In Central Control go to the 'Configuration' menu item, then select 'Configure Central and Agents', then select 'Print Agent' and Edit. Then select the 'Currency' button. You can now modify any of the currency options.
    On the command line you can enter -acucc=. for the thousand separator, and -acucd=, for the decimal separator.
    For more info on these options see the -acu Option Arguments in the Print Agent documentation.

  • BEx browser: change decimal separator

    Hi
    How can I change the decimal/thousand separator of BEx browser (show USD 1'000.00 instead of USD 1.000,00)?
    According to another thread in SDN the decimal notation is supposed to depend on the user configuration in the backend (su01). But changes there do not affect the presentation in BEx browser.
    I also tried to change the system (Windows) configuration of the portal server, without any effect.
    Thanks for your help.
    Kind regards
    Christoph

    Thanks for your response
    I tried both - without any effect. I also tried all the options in rsa1 -> properties of the key figure.
    Any other suggestions?

  • Page Snapshot on Mac using Shift+Command+4, can I change the file type?

    Is there a way to have this feature save the screen shot as a .jpg or something other than .png?
    Thanks for The help!

    Actually you can change the file type, using a defaults write command in Terminal. Whatever you select changes the file type for all screenshots until/unless you globally change it again. All OnyX does is run this command in the program's interface--if you don't know how to use Terminal you may prefer this. If you want to use Terminal, you would launch it, then copy this command:
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg
    Paste it into the Terminal window and then press the Return key. I believe you need to restart for the change to take effect.

    How can I change decimal separator in DIAdem reports to print it according to my regional settings?

    Hi Juliano,
    Depending where in REPORT the number comes up, you either enter in a format string of "d,ddd" or you use the str() function with the same format string.

  • Change of decimal separator

    Is it possible to change the decimal separator for importing data?
    I have data with , as separator can I change the default Point to comma?
    Thanks for your interest
    Thomas Pfeiffer
    Message Edited by Thomasrp on 02-16-2006 10:10 AM
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I really don't understand your problem, because normally DIAdem can import both types of decimal separators... If you use the ASCII Import the important is that you use the proper configuration for your file type… and if this file uses the comma as a decimal separator, the delimiter character between data will not be a comma… DIAdem should import the data with no problem, but on DIAdem you will see always the "." (dot)
    If your problem is that on the DIAdem View you want to see the "," comma you can do the following:
    - Right mouse click, and select "Table Settings"
    - Change the numeric format, for example "dd,ddd" then you will see only 3 decimal places and the decimal separator will be the comma.
    Hope this helps you,
    Marc.

  • Decimal Separator in SELECT Clause

    Hi
    I have the following decimal format parameters:
    SQL> select value
    2 from v$nls_parameters
    3 where parameter = 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS';
    VALUE
    If I show a number with decimal I get a comma as the decimal separator
    SQL> select 10/100 from dual;
    10/100
    ,1
    But if I use a decimal separator in the SELECT clause I get:
    SQL> select 100 * 1,1 from dual;
    100*1 1
    100 1
    It doesn't work. But using a period as the decimal separator works:
    SQL> select 1.1 * 100 from dual;
    1.1*100
    110
    Maybe this is something I've never had to deal with before but I thought that the numeric format applied to the sql results and also the numbers that you used in the sql clauses.
    Regards,
    Néstor Boscán

    Hi,Néstor,
    user594312 wrote:
    ... I thought that the numeric format applied to the sql results and also the numbers that you used in the sql clauses.No; it applies to results, and it can affect implicit conversions, but it doesn't apply to SQL code.
    The period (or dot, '.') is always the decimal separator in numeric literals. There is no way to change that.
    Think how confusing it would be if it did apply to SQL code! For example:
    WHERE   num_col  IN (1,2)Are we comparing num_col to 1 value or 2 values? Whichever it is, what if we wanted to do the opposite?
    If you really wanted to use comma as the decimal separator, you could have to use strings, not numbers, and that could be a lot less efficient.
    For example:
    SELECT  100 * TO_NUMBER ('1,1')    -- This assumes your NLS settings are correct
    FROM    dual;Of course, efficiency won't be an issue when you're selecting 1 row from dual.

  • Changing preferred font types for each language separately in Safari

    Hi, I'm wondering in Safari->Preference->Appearance, you can change the default fonts for your main language, which is most likely English.
    However, if I want to change font types for each specific language, e.g. Japanese or Traditional Chinese, how could I do that? I assume that if I change in the Appearance menu, it's global to all languages (e.g. English)?
    Just to illustrate my question, in Firefox, I can go to Firefox->Preference->Content-> Fonts&Colors->Advanced, then I can change the font types for each language separately.
    How do I do similar things in Safari in Leopard? Thanks.

    But it seems very weird that for all the beautiful font types in Mac OS, the users are only stuck with the default font type only?
    Perhaps, but it's just an example of how different browsers and apps offer different features. You should use the browser that works best for you. While FireFox may be good for that feature, it can't display some languages, like Hindi, correctly at all.
    It is possible to change the font using a custom style sheet, which you can select via the advanced item in Safari preferences, but I don't think there is any way to do this on the basis of language.
    What language are you specifically interested in changing the default font for? If you are getting the wrong kind of font for CJK (for example, seeing Japanese character types instead of the Chinese ones in Chinese text), this might be fixable by changing the language order in system prefs/international/languages.

  • Change Field selection group for Movt type 701

    Hi experts,
    I want to change Field Selection group for movt type 701.  Right now " Business Area " & " Cost Centre " fields are suppressed.  I want to change it to required entry.
    Please guide me over this
    Regards,
    Rajneesh Gulati

    the note explaines it:
    In Customizing an account assignment can be made for every inventory
    adjustment account. To do this the inventory adjustment account must
    first be defined as a cost element (Transaction KA01 / KA06):
    Accounting -> Controlling -> Cost centers -> Master data -> Cost element
    -> Create primary / secondary. Then an account assignment can be made
    for the cost element (Transaction OKB9):
    Tools -> Customizing -> Setup menu -> Accounting -> Controlling -> Cost
    centers -> Actual postings -> Automatic account assignment.
    If this account assignment is implemented every posting to the
    particular inventory adjustment account will automatically receive the
    appropriate account assignment.

  • How to change the local decimal separator on windows xp OS ?
