String to Date Conversion

Hi,
I need to convert a string to a Date format.
Input string can be in 2 formats: "mm-dd-yy" and "yyyy-mm-dd".
Thanks....

    java.util.Date date = new java.util.Date();
    sd = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
    System.out.println(sd.format(date));
    sd = new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("MM-dd-yy");
    System.out.println(sd.format(date));

Sorry Butterbean, but I'm interested in the answer to your question myself.
I've spent a few hours transfering my library from one computer to another and then find out that my ratings didn't transfer. Like you, I've spent many hours rating my 2000+ songs. I'm sure you have more, nevertheless, I want to find out how to get those ratings. They still show in my iTunes on my laptop but, when I go to the iTunes folder and display the details of at song, no rating is there. If you find out how to get them to display there in the iTunes folder, it seems that would be the key.
Hope you get your answer soon.

String to date conversion problem

Hai braniees,
i am new to java.I have a problem in converting string to date.my code is this
dob="2/05/2005";
SimpleDateFormat sf=new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
Date dt=sf.parse(dob);
i this i am getting the error in the last line.the error is
" Unhandled exception type ParseException"
I am not able to getrid of this.
Thanks
anieshuk

I would advise against doing what ranjithcp suggested unless you are such a perfect programmer that you'll never get invalid data into your methods. Also what ranjithcp has failed to mention is that you'll have to put the throws instruction all over your code right up to your main method otherwise your just moving your error message up through your program.
You should always try and handle checked exceptions not throw them.

Date date=new Date();You don't need this line.
Date dateFormatter = new
er = new
SimpleDateFormat("yyyy'-'MM'-'dd").parse(str1);;As already told, you don't need the single quotes. And you don't need two semi-colons - that's unnecessary.
I just wrote a sample code to test that out. Check it and see for yourself.
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class Test {
     public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
          System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd").parse("2005-04-18"));
          System.out.println(new SimpleDateFormat("'yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'").parse("2005-04-18"));

Conversion of string into date????????????

Can anyone tell how to convert a String into date??
if the string is in the format "Thu Mar 25 17:11:34 GMT+05:30 2004"
i have converted it. code is
SimpleDateFormat dateFormat = new SimpleDateFormat("EEE MMM d yyyy HH:mm:ss");
     dateFormat.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT+00:00"));
Date date = null;
try
          //date = dateFormat.parse(new Date().toString());
          date = dateFormat.parse(dateLine);
     catch(ParseException ex)
but i am not able to specify the year.
so when i getYear on the new Date it return 1970.

@duffymo, I'm pretty sure "d" is good for a two digit date, "dd" gives you zero-padding.
The problem, presumably, is that the format string "EEE MMM d yyyy HH:mm:ss" does not match the actual format "Thu Mar 25 17:11:34 GMT+05:30 2004".
The correct format string would be "EEE MMM d HH:mm:ss z yyyy"

String to DATS format conversion in XI.

Hello Experts,
I am using Powerbuilder system to get my Legacy data.In Powerbuilder Date needs to be supplied in STRING format.So I am giving String Format (dd-mmm-yyyy).
However, at SAP end, Date needs to be in DATS format (Standard SAP yyyymmdd) .
In Message Mapping I have given I/P structure as String and O/P structure as DATS format. When I test mapping in XI, it gives me Parseable error.
Can anybody tell me, is there any way in XI to convert from String to DATS format so that I do not get Parseable error.
Please Help!!!!

Lokesh,
With XI there is a date transformation function under date category there you need to provide source date format and target date format..
I have used the same for fetching the data from oracle..and posting into SAP..it works fine..
Try this ..this will solve ur problem....you just need to see what is the exact date format used by powerbuilder internally...
Regards,

Does anybody know what is happening and what needs to be done ?
PLEASE HELP
Thanks in advance
Vikram

To load that file with BULK INSERT, use this format file:
9.0
4
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"" 0 "" ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 1 col1 Latin1_General_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 2 col2 Latin1_General_CI_AS
4 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"\r\n" 3 col3 Latin1_General_CI_AS
Note that the format file defines four fields while the fileonly seems to have three. The format file defines an empty field before the first quote.
Or, since you already have a .NET program, use a stored procedure with table-valued parameter instead. I have an example of how to do this here:

How to do Data Conversion SSAS ?

I have fact table and a dimension table where the fields which I want to connect are of different data types i.e integer and string, So I need a help on data conversion how it is done in ssas .

Hello,
In DSV you can change the linked table into a "named query" and then you can do the data type conversion there, like
SELECT CONVERT(varchar(20), MyIntColumn) AS MyCharColumn

String into date format

Hi
I was wondering if anyone knew how to convert a string into different formats,
to enable it to be stored in a mysql db.
I was wondering anyone you knew how to convert:
- String into the date format yyyy-mm--dd
- String into time format 00:00:00
- string to double
Ive tried:
c_date = java.sql.Date.valueOf(f_date);
System.out.println("conversion data: " +c_date);
c_time = java.sql.Time.valueOf(f_time);
System.out.println(" time converted data: "+c_time);
// string to double conversion
c_change = java.lang.Double.valueOf(f_change);
System.out.println(c_change);
My class doesnt execute this at all?
Also,
SimpleDateFormat sdft = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MM-dd");
c_date = sdft.format(f_date);
System.out.println(c_date);
.. but this method returns the error incompatible types?
Any suggestions would be helpful.. thanks in advance..

Data conversion questions

Hi Everyone,
I'm confused by the data conversion rule and how to do it in abap, could you help me about some of my questions?
1. How many ways to do data conversion ( like assignment .....)?
2. When using field symbol, we know we can assign reference to field symbol , and at mean time , we can casting type.
    Is this kind of casting also a way to do data conversion?
3. In my real case, I have unknown type data to convert to xstring. the type could be any ( I, D, T, STRING......). Is there an easy way to implement that when I get the data reference, I only need to import it to a method and then the method return an xstring to me?
4. question 3 is about data->xstring, and how can I convert xstring back to the original data( should be the same type )?
Thanks and Regards,
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
try this FM:     CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT
is useful for convert different data type, here an example:
     call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
          exporting
            input         =   A    ( type unknown )
          importing
            output        = B ( type xstring ).
Perhaps that helps,
Regards,
Davide

Problem with String to Int conversion

Dear Friends,
Problem with String to Int conversion
I am having a column where most of the values are numeric. Only 4 values are non numeric.
I have replaces those non numeric values to numeric in order to maintain the data type.
CASE Grade.Grade WHEN 'E4' THEN '24' WHEN 'E3' THEN '23' WHEN 'E2' THEN '22' WHEN 'E1' THEN '21' ELSE Grade.Grade END
This comes the result as down
Grade
_0_
_1_
_10_
_11_
_12_
_13_
_14_
_15_
_16_
_17_
_18_
_19_
_2_
_20_
_21_
_22_
_23_
_24_
_3_
_4_
_5_
_6_
_7_
_8_
_9_
Refresh
Now I want to convert this value to numeric and do some calculation
So I changed the formula as below
cast (CASE Grade.Grade WHEN 'E4' THEN '24' WHEN 'E3' THEN '23' WHEN 'E2' THEN '22' WHEN 'E1' THEN '21' ELSE Grade.Grade END as INT)
Now I get the following error

Dear Kart,
This give me another hint, Yes you are right. There was one row which returns neither blank nor any value.
I have done the code like following and it works fine
Thanks again for your support

Code: cast (CASE (CASE WHEN Length(Grade.Grade)=0 THEN '--' ELSE Grade.Grade END) WHEN 'E4' THEN '24' WHEN 'E3' THEN '23' WHEN 'E2' THEN '22' WHEN 'E1' THEN '21' when '--' then '-1' ELSE Grade.Grade END as Int)

Planning and Scoping- Data conversion and testing

hello Gurus
Good people i'm looking for your help in these areas.....
1) Planning and scoping for data conversion....we will be in the process of acquiring information from the client soon. So, what sort of information or questions do i need to get from the client and also the plan needed?
2) Test planning...... things i need to get from the client to prepare for this plan???
thanks
rasham

Hi,
the question which ou have asked is really very broad. so let me give some idea regarding the planning of data conversion. first of all you should identify which all objects you want to be transfered to SAP, obviously In MM material master, inforecord source list e.tc. then you need to decide which SAP tool you will be using to upload these data like LSMW, CATT e.t.c.
once it is decided what and how you are going to transfer then comes the Functional spec for data conversion in which you will give the details of data mapping in SAP. these FS will be translated to Tech Spec by technical consultant.
Test Planning,
first of all you will decide what type of testing you want to cary out like String test, Unit test, and integration test but these are decided by the testing team not Func consultant but anyway once it is decide how many level of testing is carried out then as a func consultant you will have to create test scenario for integration testing,
