With 10gR2 would have to create a view on top of table I think because of these characters.

How many special charcters in RSKC

Hi Guru,s.
Could any one tell me, how many special characters we can enter in RSKC, which have been asked in the interview.
Regards.
Harry

Anyway, just a personal comment...
(Starting from my multi-years BI experience) I'm sometimes involved in some recruiting interview in my company, but, onestly, asking how many special characters you can put in RSKC transaction (instead of asking what is the purpose of this transaction) is really a stupid question (maybe good for a BW version of Who Wants To Be a Millionaire...)
All my sympathy to all BW novices !

Parsing Special Charcters in XML File like & ,'

how can i parse it as the & symbol is there in AT & T text .
Need some Java code to replace all kind of special characters

So the parser is giving you a message saying that the XML is not well-formed? Then you should contact the person who gave you that XML document. Tell them that is isn't well-formed (and that they should escape ampersands correctly).
It's not your responsibility to parse any old garbage that somebody sends you. It's their responsibility to send you well-formed XML.

How to export special characters into an XML file?

Dear experts,
We read files from our customers and save data into our customized table without any character changed, including some address fields. In those address fields, some special characters (not in our code page) are also kept. When we want to write these address fields into an XML file or flat file, the special charcters become "##" or not readable, can anyone help us to solve this issue?
Question1: How to write special code to an external file?
Question2: how to use 'CALL TRANSFORMATION' from an internal table to an XML file?
Your answer is highly appreciated!

Hi Joanne.
Please check the below link.

Before that u have to create one transformation program in STRANS tcode for using it in call transformation statement.

How to deal with special character in source file

Hi experts,
i am doing a file to file scenario in which my source file contains many special characters when i am puting this file into moni its going with the special character .My source file is a fixed length file so in content conversion i have specified the file length but due to these special charcters these field lenght is also varing.So please guide me how to deal with these special characters in sender adapter
regards,
Saurabh

you could try using a Java Mapping to change the encoding manually. For that, set the encoding of the OutputFormat of the XML you'll serialize. Try the following code piece for the mapping (inside a try/catch declaration):
DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
DocumentBuilder documentBuilder = factory.newDocumentBuilder();
Document input = documentBuilder.parse(in);
OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(XML, "ISO-8859-1", false);
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(out, format);

i was thinking of using XMLAnonymizer, but the problem is in integration engine itself. I can see invalid output in SXMB_MONI.
so could some one help me how can i fix this issue?

Hello,
Just when you think that you know everything, it is slammed in your face that you don't. The .Mac member name field in the System Preferences DOES NOT take your whole e-mail address. It only takes your user name or whatever comes BEFORE the "@" symbol. There was absolutely nothing wrong with my MacBook Pro (other than ther brain dead user).
Sorry for wasting your time...

Identify special characters that are not supported by an embeded font

Hi!
I'm useing embeded fonts as CFF in my flex 4.5.1 application and I have problems with the special charcters like Ă, Â, Î, Ș, Ț or arabic text, that are not included in my embeded font. This are displayed in my RichEditableTect component useing the default font (Arial).
Is there any way to block the user when he tries to add such characters?
Or can I identify them before saveing , in order to format the text like <Text Font="ExoticFont"...>Hello<Text font-family="Arial">ë</Text></Text> ?

I think you want to use Font.hasGlyphs. If you are using the @font-face directive it is hard to get to the Font class so you may wish to switch to using the directive.

I can't import my iTunes files into pages, how can i fix the privileges problem?

when i try to import any mp3 file into a pages document, i get an access privileges error saying it is either corrupt, damaged or "can't be used" because I don't have access privileges. This has happened since I moved my iTunes library to an external drive. Anyone have any solutions? The privileges on both the library folder, and all its files are set to read and write for sharing and permissions.

If you do not have done so, set the "Ignore Ownership" flag on the external drive. YOu can set this flag from the "File > Get Info" panel for the drive.
How is your external drive formatted?
Can other applications open these mp3 files? QuickTime? Do they play in the Finder preview?
Do the filenames contain special charcters?

Sender http adapter - decoding (URL unescape)

PI 7.0
Incoming http request in XI is URL decoded. Currently I am using java mapping to decode it. Is there a way to set any adapter specific properties in sender http adater so that I can avoid the java mapping for decoding. Or any settings in SICF? In other words, how can XI handle encoded http requests?
When XI makes a external http request, I can set a property "Mask Special Charcters (URL Escaping)" in the receiver http adapter. XI will make a encoded http request, meaning the xml will encoded in UT-8.

Converting db from WE8ISO8859P1 to UTF-8

I am running an Oracle 10g database with approx 60 tables. We are going global so we need to convert to unicode. Currently our database doesn't contain any special characters (all english ASCII data).
I have read through the "Character Set Migration" book from Oracle (http://www.cs.umb.edu/cs634/ora9idocs/server.920/a96529/ch10.htm) but i'm still not clear on whether i will need to manually alter all my tables to expand the size of my fields.
I'm hoping someone who has done this conversion can advise me. If my db doesn't currently store any special charcters then i shouldn't lose data in the conversion, correct? Do i still need to expand my field in case in the future special characters are entered into the db. For example a name field that is VARCHAR2(10). If Janpanese characters are entered then the field can only hold 5 characters???
If i do need to expand all my fields is there any slick oracle utility to expand my field by 3 times?? or do i have to manually run alters on my tables??
Also, can i run the conversion by issuing the ALTER DATABASE command or do i have to do the full export/import? Oracle states "if, and only if, the new character set is a strict superset of the current character set, it is possible to use the ALTER DATABASE CHARACTER SET statement to expedite the change in the database character set." Isn't UTF-8 a superset of WE8ISO8859P1??
Any feedback or other gotchas would be greatly appreciated.

A few suggestions:
1. If your database is 10g and your client software is only 9i and 10g based, migrate to AL32UTF8, not to UTF8.
2. Do not use ALTER DATABASE with 10g. Use csscan to scan your database to confirm that you really have only ASCII. Your scan should show only Changless data, no Convertible or Exceptional Data. Convertible data is allowed in Data Dictionary columns of type CLOB only.
3. Then, you should be able to change the character set using the script
?/rdbms/admin/csalter.plb
It will change the database character set to the last TOCHAR value
from the csscan run. Do not specify the FROMCHAR parameter.
DO NOT play with csalter.plb without a BACKUP!!!
4. VARCHAR2(10) in [AL32]UTF8 will be able to hold only 3 Japanese characters.
5. I am afraid, the trick with NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS and import will not work,
because Export emits the BYTE keyword in CREATE TABLE.
You would have to use the impdp sqlfile and run the statements from there.
