Timestamp in Oracle Forms10g

Dear ALL,
Can any one tell me how can i use the timestamp data type column in
Oracle Forms 10G.
when i create table with a time stamp as datatype and then when i make
Data block by wizard i am getting FRM-10009 error message.
My table structure is as below
create table DeptA
(Dept_No number(2),
Dept_name Varchar2(100),
Dept_A_DATE timestamp);
Please let le me know how can i create a datablock on a table which
contains timestamp data type for one field.

TIMESTAMP is an unsupported datatype in Forms. At the moment, there is unlikely any way that this datatype can be used directly in the Forms code without risk of some kind of problem. You will likely need to convert the data to something supported like a varchar when used in the form. It is likely possible to create a db procedure to perform whatever task needs to be accomplished. To show or manipulate the data from within the form convert it to a varchar. From the form call the proc and pass in and out what data needs to be handled.
The assertion error is a known issue being investigated in Oracle bug 8836073. Understand however that fixing this bug will likely only cause the ugly assertion to appear as a more user friendly error. It will not provide support for the unsupported types.

Oracle Forms10g view window is small

Hi All,
We just installed oracle forms10g, when we compile a form and run it, it opens in the browser but with small area of it appearing and the rest is hided. there is no scrolling or any thing. How can i make the browser open it in full size (viewing area)?
Note: scrolling for the window horizontal and vertical is on.
Regards;

Swati is correct. To be specific, if you want to use all of the available space in the browser area set HEIGHT and WIDTH in formsweb.cfg as follows:
HEIGHT=100%
WIDTH=100%
This will force the applet size to use the entire white space of the browser. Well, not exactly all. There will be a slight boarder around the applet area. This is expected behavior.

Unix timestamp to Oracle timestamp conversion

How to convert normal timestamp to julian timestamp in oracle

Hi Friends
How can i convert normal timestamp to Julian Timestamp in Oracle ?
Thanks for your help

Hi Chris,
I dont have any idea on this. But need clarification on your query.
When I executing below query I'm getting same output. 'J' will give only Julian day right not the timestamp. Please correct me if I am wrong.

DB2 timestamp to oracle timestamp conversion

Does any one know how to convert Db2 timestamp into oracle timestamp.
From DB2 we are getting timestamp in this format (2000-03-06-16.02.19.074474) (26 bytes).
I want to insert this into oracle thru owb into oracle table with column type timestamp.
Does anyone know the procedure for this type of conversion
Thanks in advance..

Hi,
Try a migration tool at www.ispirer.com/chyfo.html
It provides you the fastest, the easiest and the most powerful way to migrate
DB2 database into Oracle.
It works in conjunction with Oracle SQL Loader. The tool creates text files (moving of LOBs are fully supported), generates
CREATE TABLE scripts for Oracle and control files for SQL Loader.
The tool has a lot of other features.
Best regards, Dmitry.

Sybase Timestamp in Oracle

Hi,
I am in the process of migrating Sybase database to oracle 10g.
In Sybase there is a column exist in most of the tables with datatype Timestamp, the data looks like 0x467469786abfc324, this is automatically generated while inserting or updating a table.
Is this equivalent to rowid in Oracle? or please suggest a equivialent solution in oracle.
Thanks,
DJ

Yes. The Sybase Timestamp is essentially a surrogate row identifier and should not be moved into Oracle.
In Oracle, especially with newer technologies such as Advanced Compression, we enable and expect row movement so it is rowids
should not be treated as static. If you need a surrogate key then create a SEQUENCE object and use that to generate the surrogate key.

TIMESTAMP in Oracle 8(i)

I'm not sure if this is the right place but...
Does Oracle 8 support the TIMESTAMP datatype based on SQL-92?
Thanks,
Mat.

Hi Mat,
The datatype "DATE" itself has time component in it. We can store dates in the format yyyy-mon-dd hh:mi:ss format.
Hope this helps,

Passing array of timestamps into oracle stored proc

Hey there,
I have an interesting problem. I need to pass an array of java.sql.Timestamp into a stored proc.
I see that the PreparedStatement provides a setArray() method which takes as arguments an int, java.sql.Array
Anybody know how I can use the java.sql.Array to my advantage here ? Basically, I don't see how I can create a java.sql.Array of Timestamps
thanks in advance for all your help.
Manish Mandelia

The java.sql.Array implementation is provided by your jdbc driver.
For exemple using Oracle you can obtain an sql.Array with something like this :
Connection con=getConnection() // get a connection to the DB
//first declare what type of array you will use in the DB
// you probably want to replace CHAR(7) by Timestamp here
PreparedStatement createArray=
con.prepareStatement("CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE MYARRAY AS VARRAY(100) OF CHAR(7)");
createArray.execute();
//then get an java instance of this Array
oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor arrayDescriptor = oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("MYARRAY",con);
// content is used to fill the Array
String[] content= {"string0", "string1"};
java.sql.Array sqlArray=new oracle.sql.ARRAY(arrayDescriptor, con, content);
// then call your stored procedure
java.sql.CallableStatement callStmt=con.prepareCall("call MyStoredProcedure(?)");
// passing the array as an argument
callStmt.setArray(1,sqlArray);
callStmt.execute();
As you can see the code is quite database specific.
hope that helps.

Avg Time Difference of Two timestamps in Oracle SQL

Yes, I am trying to show the time difference of two timestamps ( finish date , start date ) in Hours:Mins and also calculate the average of this Hours : Mins by ORDER_NUM .
Please advise.

Select entries between two dates by converting Unix timestamp in Oracle Dat

Hi,
I need to select the entries between two dates from an Oracle db. The Oracle db has a column with Unix timestamps. I use the following querry, but it doesnt seem to be working as desired.
select count(*) from reporter_status where to_char(FIRSTOCCURRENCE, 'mm-dd-yy') between ('08-07-06') and ('08-08-06');
FIRSTOCCURRENCE has the Unix timestamps.
Could anyone help me out with this. Thank you for your help.

Assuming that it is actually a UNIX timestamp, then it is the number of seconds since Jan 1, 1970, so you need something like:
SELECT COUNT(*)
FROM reporter_status
WHERE TO_DATE('01-Jan-1970', 'dd-mon-yyyy') + (firstoccurrence/24/60/60)
BETWEEN TO_DATE('08-07-2006', 'mm-dd-yyyy') AND
TO_DATE('08-08-2006, 'mm-dd-yyyy');Did Y2K not teach us anything? Use 4 digit years.

Need help on timestamp in oracle....

hi
in my web application i hav oracle as backend. Through web page i m suppose
to make entry in the database. The table contains 2 entries for datatype TIMESTAMP(6) out of these one is compulsory (i.e not null) and other is not compulsory. here is what i m doing in coding:
in java servlet
long q = System.currentTimeMillis();
query = "INSERT INTO TABL(field1,field2,field3,field4,field5,field_timestamp) VALUES(" val1 ",'" + val2 + "','" + val3 + "','"+val4+"','"+val5+"',to_timestamp("+q+"))";
int r=stmt.executeUpdate(query);
but this code gives me error that column does not exists ....
can anyone help me i want to store timestamp value in the table....

Probably one of those things that you are concatenating in there appears to be a column name (instead of a literal) in your SQL. When you got an error message suggesting there was a problem with your SQL, did it not occur to you that you should look at the SQL? What you posted there is just some rubbish code that generates the SQL.
I call it rubbish code because it would be much easier, not to mention more practical, to use a PreparedStatement.
