Hi,
You can do it online but better to perform at off-peak time because it will marked all those Cursor from Library Cache as Invalid which refer this Table which incurs hard parsing when those cursor refer by the application next time.
Thanks

How to compare the date value with the date datatype column?

Hi,
I am executed a query to get output for the particular date in two different database.
I got output in one db environment, but in the another environment i didnt get the output.
APP_DECISION_DATE column contains date datatype
ex:
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE = TO_DATE('23-JAN-07',
'DD-MON-YY'); 2
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060106 SYSTEM
DATABASE - II
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE=
TO_DATE('31-JAN-2007','DD-MON-RRRR') and application_id=2007010028552;
no rows selected
in the same db i got the output while i used the TO_DATE(APP_DECISION_DATE)
SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where TO_DATE(APP_DECISION_DATE)=
TO_DATE('31-JAN-2007','DD-MON-YYYY') and application_id=2007010028552; 2
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060113 SYSTEM
is it necessary to use TO_DATE function while i am using the data datatype column in the WHERE CLAUSE?
Thanks in advance.
siva

SQL> select DECISIONED_STAGE_ID,DECISIONED_STAGE_USER_ID from naap10_application where APP_DECISION_DATE BETWEEN TO_DATE ('31.01.2007 00:00:00', 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS') AND TO_DATE ('31.01.2007 23:59:59', 'DD.MM.YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
2 and application_id=2007010028552;
DECISIONED_STAGE_ID DECISIONED_STAG
2006060113 SYSTEM

How to Increase the Selection screen window length width big....

How to Increase the Selection screen window length width big.... I cant able to do some enter text... because of the window size it gives error... can anyone help me out this...
Thanks in advance

hi,
Maximum size is fixed for selection-screen.
Split your text into different lines to fit it.
Create a text element for your text and write it as comments.
selection-screen begin of block b3 with frame title text-041.
selection-screen begin of line.
    parameters : p_all radiobutton group g2 default 'X'.
    selection-screen comment 10(75) text-049.
selection-screen end of line.
selection-screen begin of line.
    parameters : p_iloc radiobutton group g2.
    selection-screen comment 10(75) text-050.
selection-screen end of line.
selection-screen end of block b3.

Is it possible to increase the substitution variable value length?

Hi,
Is it possible to increase the substitution variable value length to higher value? I checked the SQL User Guide (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/apa.htm) and it says that the limit is 240 characters.
i just want to know any workaround for this issue?
Thanks.

Create index for the NVARCHAR Datatype columns.

We have facing problem with NVARCHAR datatype columns during the select with WHERE condition . The Index is not getting used even though index is available. Oracle takes FULL table Scan only .
For Eg:
Table created with ITEM_NO as NVARCHAR2(100). and we have create normal index on ITEM_NO
When I capture the run time sql from the v$session and checked SQL plan it show FULL Table scan.Sql is as below
SELECT col1, col2, col3 from table x
WHERE ITEM_NO=N'123'
If ithe abvove sql is changed as below .It takes the Index
SELECT col1, col2, col3 from table x
WHERE ITEM_NO='123'
Can any one advise why this behaviour is happing
Regards
Chandrasekar

the second statement is transformed to <convert to varchar2>(item_no)='123'.
This means Oracle can't take the index as there is a function on the indexed column.
This is likely version-dependent, reason why you always, really always need to specify your four digit version
Solution: always use N'<hardcoded literal'.

Go through this pdf. you need to create a new desktop by applying new desktop framework page and themes as specified in the guide. Before that in portal go to System administration -> portal display -> desktops & display rules. In that select a theme and save as 'new theme' for example. When you click 'new theme', preview opens. In it select 'portal masthead', under which there is an option 'Masthead Height'.
In it you can specify the height in terms of px in accordance with your height of the logo. You can even insert a new logo from the 'url to logo' option under it.
Save the theme and this is the new theme which you should assign it to new desktop.
Hope it helps...
Revert back if you have any doubts.

How to display and edit the clob datatype column from Data base

Hi ,

2) need to display the data from DB in search screen and need to be edited clob column in edit screen
I created EO and VO with that Table and how to display the clob value into the input box for editing.

Can you please help on this.
THanks & REgards,
Madhu

Hi,
If you are using an inputText component to display a Character Large Object (CLOB), then you will need to create a custom converter that converts the CLOB to a String.
For custom convertor refer below link,

DG4ODBC: STRING DATA, RIGHT TRUNCATION ERROR WHILE ACCESSING VARCHAR(MAX) COLUMN

Problem Summary
DG4ODBC: STRING DATA, RIGHT TRUNCATION ERROR WHILE ACCESSING VARCHAR(MAX) COLUMN
Driver
Microsoft® ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server® - RedHat Linux
Problem Description
When selecting a MS SQL VARCHAR (max) column over a ODBC Gateway database connection I am getting this error from Oracle:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server]String data, right truncation {01004}
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server]String data, right truncation {01004}
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server]String data, right truncation {01004}
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server]String data, right truncation {01004}
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server]String data, right truncation {01004}
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from <LINK_NAME>
The ODBC driver should map the varchar(max) column to SQL_LONGVARCHAR which would be appropriate for Oracle but the column is getting truncated
Issue
By default the SQL Server ODBC driver exposes the varchar(max) data type as a SQL_VARCHAR. When reporting the maximum size of a varchar(max) column, the driver returns 0, which is the Microsoft convention for "unlimited".
[ODBC][25518][1399527750.588980][SQLDescribeCol.c][497]
Exit:[SQL_SUCCESS]
Column Name = [raw_response]
Data Type = 0x7fffe3cbe1a4 -> 12
Column Size = 0x7fffe3cbe158 -> 0
Decimal Digits = 0x7fffe3cbe1ac -> 0
Nullable = 0x7fffe3cbe1b0 -> 1
DG4ODBC is unable to interpret a zero length as an "unlimited" size and returns an error when retrieving varchar(max) data.
FreeTDS and DataDirect ODBC drivers return SQL_LONGVARCHAR instead of SQL_VARCHAR with 0 precision. So there is no problem reported for these drivers.
Is there a fix for this or is the Microsoft ODBC driver team working on a fix for the driver regarding varchar(max)?

James

Changing the size of column in JTable as per requirement

I'm copying content of excel file into the JTable.
But as the number of columns increases the size of columns get reduced.
But i want the table of same column size for any number of columns in the table.
If display area size is less then JTable must scroll according to the size.

Scroll bars appear when the table's size is larger than the scrollpane's viewport. So your viewport is a fixed size. You adjust the size of the table to get the scrollbars to appear and get smaller (as the table's size increases).
