Specify datatype in sql as

In my query I have Select 1235 as 'Integer_Field' from Table.
Is there a way to specify that 1235 is an integer here?
I'm connecting to oracle through asp.net and when I populate a DataTable, it's assuming this is a string field, then sorting doesn't work correctly because it's trying to sort a string field instead of an integer.
Thanks

ThanksThat sounds like an ASP problem, not an Oracle problem. Oracle knows that 1235 is a NUMBER, not a VARCHAR2. if it didn't, you could use CAST:
SELECT CAST ('1235' AS NUMBER) AS integer_field
FROM table_x;

Member acces profile error(A table name, specified in an sql command)

Hi friends,
In my bpc application(A) below 3 dims are secure dims.

while defining one member access profile,
Read Only      : CATEGORY 100

Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_DYNAMIC_OSQL_SEMANTICS', was
     not caught in

    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the

    The reason for the exception is:
    An invalid table name "/1CPMB/RDWCSUMAS" was specified in an Open SQL command:
    Due to one of the following reasons, the error occurs only at runtime:
    - the table name was specified dynamically, or

Hi Naresh,
As far as I know You have specify Explicit Access to all the dimensions mentioned as Secured in your Application.
You can't skip the secured Dimesions.
In your case if you want to restrict only one dimension for 1 Member Access Profile then give Read & Write access to other 2 Dimensions and select ALL members.
This might solve your problem.
Hope it helps.

Need advise - compare specified date in *.sql with sysdate.

Hi Guys,
Need help here.
Anyone has a script that will compare the specified date with the current sysdate. If earlier, it will order SQL*PLUS to quit immediate.
Basically the checking will be in a *.sql script. Whenever we run the script, @c:\script.sql, it will first compare the dates and decide whether to proceed with the rest of the codes (dml) below the date checker in the same script.sql
thanks

Hi,
I'm not sure I understood as it seems too simple to me:
set serveroutput on
DECLARE
   v_date   DATE := TO_DATE('&yourdate', 'YYYYMMDD');
BEGIN
   IF v_date >= TRUNC(SYSDATE)
   THEN
     /* Your DML statements here */
     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Code is executed');
   ELSE
     DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Date is before SYSDATE.');
   END IF;
END;
EXIT
{code}

Could not resolve the connect identifier specified - only in sql jobs

I'm getting the 'ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified' when I'm trying to execute a stored procedure that calls this linked server from a sql server agent job. I can execute the stored procedure perfectly fine in a query window. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
A little more info. The client install on this machine wasn't pretty. I think there might be multiple homes leading to confusion of which tnsnames.ora file the different elements are looking for. Anyway to verify this?

Trying to serialize C# object and store as XML Datatype in Sql Server 2005

using

             MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream();
               StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(stream);
               XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(Obj.GetType());

               byte[] arr = stream.GetBuffer();
               return Encoding.UTF8.GetString(arr).Trim();
The object looks like
    public class CorporateBondSec : BaseSecurity
        public double coupon; // CPN

I have also tried
XmlSerializer x = new XmlSerializer(Obj.GetType());
System.Text.StringBuilder builder = new System.Text.StringBuilder();
x.Serialize(XmlWriter.Create(builder), Obj);
return builder.ToString();
That gives me an XML

Tony,
this is how your XML should look like.

I see you have a few extra '\' characters before double quotes. you need to remove them.

Question about the text datatype in SQL server 2008 r2

How do I read/write this datatype to/from the database using C#? (visual studio 2010) I am not sure how to handle it.

Go to Tools/Designers and uncheck this option (see the image). Also, instead of executing the change right away, click on the script option and examine the proposed change. SSMS often makes changes script more difficult than it needs to be.

Thanks Lydia Zhang for your reference urls.
Please let me know if you come across any reference articles related to
Creating a SQL Server table and View with columns as SQL Server TVP similar to Oracle UDT like
CREATE TABLE "OE"."CUSTOMERS"
   (   "CUSTOMER_ID" NUMBER(6,0),
   "CUST_FIRST_NAME" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE) CONSTRAINT "CUST_FNAME_NN" NOT NULL ENABLE,

   "CUST_ADDRESS" "OE"."CUST_ADDRESS_TYP" ,
   "PHONE_NUMBERS" "OE"."PHONE_LIST_TYP" ,
   "NLS_LANGUAGE" VARCHAR2(3 BYTE),
And also creating a SQL Server TVP inside an another SQL Server TVP as in Oracle
create or replace TYPE customer_typ
AS OBJECT
    ( customer_id        NUMBER(6)
    , cust_first_name    VARCHAR2(20)

XSL transform question from XML date datatype to SQL date datatype

Just to give an idea, I am reading some employee information in a CSV format and I have created the fileadapter to read it and parse it into coherent information where each comma separated value corresponds to a column in an employee table. One of the columns is of the date object in the database.
So my my variable is created with a list of employees and then fed into the invoke that calls a dbadapter that does the insert. I am using a transformation to get the values from one variable into the other simply because of namespace conflicts. However the xml date will not match the sql date object as to be expected...but how do I work around it? I have a few ideas but I am not sure they are worth mentioning.
Any suggestions?

The specified instance of SQL Server is hosted by a system that is not a WSFC node

I am trying to setup always on availability group sql 2012 on 2 sql servers. When i try to add the replica, it gives me this error

Hi JonDoe,
According to your error message, it seems that you had two separate clusters. And you try to add secondary replica on the separate cluster. AlwaysOn Availability Groups requires a Windows Server Failover Clustering (WSFC) cluster and each availability replica
of a given availability group must reside on a different node of the same WSFC cluster.
There is similar issue about setting up availability group, you can review the following article.
