Space in the Table

Hi all,
I'm new to Oracle i needed to know incase in a column for names which can be null how do i know how many entries are there with only spaces inserted into the table...

If you want to find rows where some column contains only spaces, how about:
WHERE somecolumn IS NOT NULL
AND   RTRIM(somecolumn) IS NULLor from 10g onwards,
WHERE REGEXP_LIKE(somecolumn, '^  *$')

  • Space in the Table Name

    I was writing a program to move data from an Access database on to a different database.
    The existing access data base has table names with spaces and SQL queries do not recognize such names! Any suggestions?

    i think single quotes ' is the generally accepted way
    of doing this. [] may work in access but other
    databases not so well.Not at all!
    Single quotes are used to identify string literals inside a SQL statement. The double quotes are used to quote object names which either contain special characters (e.g. spaces) or would otherwise be rejected because they are reserved words (e.g. using SELECT as a column name only works with double quotes).

  • How to calculate the percentage of free space for a table in Oracle

    okay, I am a little confused here. I have been searching the web and looking at a lot of documents. What I basically want to find out is this, how do I calculate the difference between the number of bytes a table is using and the total bytes allocated to a table space (going that way to get percent free for a particular table). So I need a byte count of a table and total table space and the percentage difference. I have been looking at the DBA_TABLES DBA_TABLESPACES and DBA_SEGMENTS views. I have tried to calculated the space as num_rows * avg_row_len (if I am wrong, let me know). I have been trying to compare that calculation to the number in DBA_TABLESPACES and DBA_SEGMENTS. I am just looking for the total space allocated to the table space that the table sits in (seem logical right now) to make the percentage value work. Thus I want to be able to track the table as it grows as compated to the table space it sits in to see a value as it changes over time (days, weeks, etc.) each time I run this script I am working on.
    Can someone get me straight and help me to find out if I am looking in the right places. Any advice would help.

    I use this to find the space allocations.
    Just read your post again,this is not going to show you the percentage of the free/used space. This is going to be the number of blocks which are free/used. For the growth trend, you can look at (in 10g) Oracle EM. It has added now,Segment Growth Trend report which can show you for each object,comparing to the allocated space to the object,how much space is being used by it.

    Hi Tarun,
    This css rule is useful to set the padding on each cell:
    .AFTableCellPadding:alias {
      padding: 10px 0px 10px 0px;
    }But if you want to insert a real space between the rows (property "cellspacing") you can do something like this:
    af|table > div + div > table {
      border-collapse: separate;
      border-spacing: 0px 5px;
    }AP

    Then just set the right-aligned tab stop and the right edge of the table cell and add the leader.

    Hello,
    Yes space wont be released immediately .If large extents are in picture which I assume is your case it goes into deferred drop a background process which will execute after some time( time may vary).See below link for details.
    As per BOL if extents are more than 128 it goes in deferred drop.

  • Detemining the free space for each tables before Archiving an object.

    Hi Everyone,
    I want to know,how can i get the information about the how much space will get free from each table which is related to an archiving object <b>before</b> i perform
    archiving on that particular object.
    Are there any transactions for the same, or some transaction which can be related to these.
    eg:FI_DOCUMNT is related to lots of table, before i archive this object, i want to know that space that will be free from all the tables individually which are affected by this object.
    Regards,
    Nipun Sharma

    Hi Nipun,
    as far as I know: there is no easy tool to get this numbers. But on the other hand, you don't need exact numbers, estimations will do.
    It's a good idea to start with the biggest objects: take DB02, make a detailed analysis where you select the biggest tables -> corresponding archive objects should be your main focus (for the beginning).
    Count for the biggest tables in each objects the entries per year (or month, whatever periods you are interested in). Most tables have creation date to do so, otherwise go for number range. For some numbers you could search the creation date, the rest is estimation again.
    Then you will have an idea, which volume was created in which time frame.
    Still you need some test archive runs (in PRD or an (old) copy, at least for an example amount of data): you need to know, which % of the documents can technically be archived, how much will stay open because of missing closing. That's critical information (maybe 90% will stay in system) and can only be analyzed by SARA test runs - if you identify the missing object status, you can go on selecting this directly, but in the beginning you need the archive run.
    With the volume / time frame and the percentage, which can be deleted you should be able to give estimations based on current total object size. Make clear, that you talk about estimations: every single object will be checked for having correct status - before this isn't done (in a test run), no one can tell exact numbers.
    Hope, this will help you,
    regards,
    Christian

    Hi Venkat,
    Please try to disable the autoextend, in the brspace screen first you make off for autoextend  then you try to extend the space.
    Definetly it will work. I have faced same problem earlier.
    Please let me know still if you have any problem for extending.

  • How to manage the space between a table and its title?

    Have tables where titles are very close to the main text and need a couple of points to separate these elements. How to reshape this space?
    1. Titles were separated by a return that is not  visible...  (any code is revealed by ID)
    2. When a Return is inserted after the title, nothing happens aparently, but this return is now visible and could be used as a «paragraph space after» value:
    3. A solution could be Grep to catch the end of paragraph assigned to titles to insert a return;
    but Grep only catches the right border of the table (the yellow mark shows the big blinking cursor);
    Grep cannot see the end of paragraph in the tables's title.
    It another method?
    Basically, how to modify the space between a table and ists title

    I think you and Bob are not in synch here.
    Bob suggested that you could use paragraph spacing, but for that to work you do need to use separate paragraphs for the title and table, which you don't seem to be doing. Using GREP to find the end of the paragraph only works if there IS and end to the paragraph. As far as I know there is now meta-character to use in Find/Change that would allow you to find a table and insert a paragraph break ahead of it, but I bet it could be scripted.
    I'm not quite sure what you were trying to find in the GREP you posted. Did you actually have a paragraph return inserted already after the title? In that case you only need to redefine the style for that paragraph to add the space (or redefine the style for the paragraph that holds the table itself). You don't need the GREP. But the reason it does nothing is that you've found a location -- the end of the paragraph, but haven't found any actual text to modify. To do anything you would need to use something like .$
    But back to NOT having a separate paragraph... If you put the cursor in any table cell and go to Table Options > Table Setup tab you'll see fields to set space before and after the table that should do what you want. That was the second part of what he posted.
