Variable Date type

Hello,
I have a date type variable like 05/07/2008 / day/month/year and it works as a string.
I have a prompt with this date type where I have declared a variable called v_date.
The problem is how to make a filter in a form with this variable to see actual year and the previous year.
I have done it many times with other variables like integers or floats like this:
xxxxxxxx IN (@{v_date},(@{v_date}-1))
where v_date is an integer variable type.
I guess I have to convert the string to int with functions like cast and substring to use the formula but it hasn't worked.
Thank you for your help!

Thank you for your answer but still not working.
This is what I have written in my filter of my report:
"Dim Fecha Dia Curso"."Day Date" IN (Right(@{v_date}, 4),(Cast(Right(@{v_date}, 4) as int) - 1))
and that's the error I've recieved:
View Display Error
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).

I've translated a couple of sentences in the error because I recieved the error in spanish.
I hope to help you in the translation.
Thanks!

  • Declare Variable Data Types

    From my understanding, there is no need to declare variables
    data type like String, Number, Array for it to function. For
    example:
    var abc:String = "abcde";
    var abc:Number = 1234;
    var abc:Array = new Array();
    We can write it in easier way and it is still working.
    abc = "abcde";
    abc = 1234;
    abc = new Array();
    So, what is the purpose and benefit to declare the variable
    specific data type?

    i mean that as3 (= actionscript 3) requires variable typing
    in most situations or the flash compiler will throw an error.
    and no, failing to use strict typing won't cause any
    debugging problems.
    there's also some "feeling" that strict typing enhances code
    efficiency, but i haven't seen anything convincing on this.

  • Identify bind variable data type 121?

    Looks like the OCI forum is not popular. Reposting here with hopes of better luck... Or perhaps I wasn't specific enough for the forum? OK, this is obviously a binary data type. The problem is that I want to know exactly which of them it is. Or I'd like to know if someone has improperly coded an OCI application. Here's the original post.
    I received a level 12 SQL trace file that referenced data type 121 for a bind variable value. I have searched unsuccessfully for documentation in many places. Can anyone tell me what data type this is? Following is the relevant excerpt from the trace file.

    Hi
    The following are the internal datatypes used by oracle related to 121.

    Not sure about their exact use but these datatypes might be used internally for LOB's.

    I have some dynamic DATE variables created which fetches date values from a table. In the table the data type for that field is INTEGER.
    But on starting the server all date variables are initialized with .0d appended in the end. LIke 2012.0d etc.
    Kindly provide some pointers!
    Thanks

    Of Course we can do that.
    Your substring should not be in init block, it suppose to be where you are referring rep variable.
    In your prompt to set default values use sql query something like
    SELECT Time."Month" FROM "SA" WHERE Time."Year"=SUBSTRING(VALUEOF("PREVIOUS_MONTH") FROM 1 FOR 4)
    If helps pls mark ;)

  • Variable Data Type Error.

    I have a fast question. I am setting up a variable with a
    data type of Number, when I declare the variable it has a default
    value.
    I am trying to pass data to the variable from a input text
    box but I am getting an error when I run the Movie. I have tried
    both a input text box and a Dynamic Text box, but they both produce
    the same error.
    If I remove the data typing from the variable declaration the
    Movie runs and it updates the variable data but from all that I
    have read this is not a good practice.
    I have attached the code, could someone Please help me out. I
    do not remember having these types of problems with ActionScript 2.
    Thanks for the help.
    Code:
    var rectangle:Shape;
    var thick :Number = 2; // line thickness
    var color:Number= 0x000000; // Holds the color value

    Thanks again for any help.
    Mike

    the text property of a textfield is of type String, so to
    place that String into a variable of type Number, you need to first
    convert it to a Number
    eg.
    thick = Number(lineThick_txt.text);
    ActionScript 2 performed this conversion
    automatically.

  • Shared variable data type: Can I choose an array of a custom typedef, without making the array itself a typedef?

    Hi all,
    I'd like to pass an array of a cluster across my network. My cluster is typedef'ed, but I'd like to avoid polluting my project with another redundant typedef.
    Is it possible to use the shared variable's "From Custom Control..." option with an array, without saving the array as a new .ctl file?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ah, I didn't realize you were using shared variables. I thought you were just considering it as another option along with TCP/IP or UDP or something like that. In this case, you would have to create a second custom control. This control would be an array with teh typedef cluster in it. No need to make this new control itself a typedef though. Sorry, I know you were hoping for a different answer. I doubt one file will really "clutter" your project though

  • Designer Custom Data Type

    Hello,
    I've posted a project at some commercial sites to find someone to help me doing it, but couldn't find any. I thought that it might be impossible doing this type of projects. The following is what was posted expecting someone could help/lead me doing it myself or at least providing any valuable hints, Thank you in advance.
    Looking for an Oracle expert to do the software part of a project.
    A data to be populated in Oracle database, but unfortunately Oracle doesn't support the required data type to hold it.
    An expert has to create custom data type with all required procedures/functions to manipulate the data(Read/Update/Insert/Delete), and provide a method to incorporate the solution in Oracle developer suite to model it.(To use it inside designer tools)
    The solution should allow someone to Create a column in a table to hold (for example) three bits in every row(record), mostly used in the project is three bits, but need the solution to be open and customizable to any number from one up to 21. Viewing/entering the data in a record could be as binary string. Saving in a table physically should be in sampling way to save space.
    The functions/procedures for manipulating the data should be based on record level and block level(several records of one column with start/end points). For record manipulations a binary string should be used, and for block manipulations a sampled structure should be used.

    not sure what exactly do you mean by custom data type in SQL? if you mean if there is a user defined data type in oracle thru PL/SQL yes there is. by using the %Type you need not to declare the variable data type explicitly. all you need to do is associate the variable to the column name of the table and use the %Type. see this example below.
    SQL> declare
      2    vEmpno   emp.empno%Type;
      3  begin
      4    select empno
      5      into vEmpno
      6      from emp
      7     where ename = 'FORD';
      8    dbms_output.put_line('employee no: '||vEmpno);
      9  end;
    10  /
    employee no: 7902

  • Any idea what this errorr means? the data type of the reference does not match the data type of the variable

    I am using Veristand 2014, Scan Engine and EtherCat Custom Device.  I have not had this error before, but I was trying to deploy my System Definition File (run) to the Target (cRio 9024 with 6 modules) and it failed. It wouldn't even try to communicate with the target. I get the 'connection refused' error.  
    I created a new Veristand project
    I added the Scan Engine and EtherCat custom device.
    I changed the IP address and auto-detected my modules
    i noticed tat Veristand didn't find one of my modules that was there earlier. (this week)
     So, i went to NiMax to make sure software was installed and even reinstalled Scan Engine and Veristand just to make sure.
    Now, it finds the module, but when i go to deploy it getsto the last step of deploying the code to the target, and then it fails.
    Any thoughts?

    Can you deploy if you only have the two 9401 modules in the chassis (no other modules) and in the sysdef?  I meant to ask if you could attach your system definition file to the forum post so we can see it as well (sorry for the confusion).  
    Are you using any of the specialty configurations for the 9401 modules? (ex: counter, PWM, quadrature, etc)

    Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
    to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:

    >> I need to select from a dynamic column name and save the result in a variable, but seem to be having trouble with the values being fed to sp_executesql <<
    This is so very, very wrong! A column is an attribute of an entity. The idea that you are so screwed up that you have no idea if you want
    the shoe size, the phone number or something else at run time of this entity. 
    In Software Engineering we have a principle called cohesion that says a model should do one and only one task, have one and only one entry point, and one and only one exit point. 
    Hey, on a scale from 1 to 10, what color is your favorite letter of the alphabet? Yes, your mindset is that level of sillyity and absurdity. 
    Do you know that SQL is a declarative language? This family of languages does not use local variables! 
    Now think about “month_val” and what it means. A month is a temporal unit of measurement, so this is as silly as saying “liter_val” in your code. Why did you use “sp_” on a procedure? It has special meaning in T-SQL.  
    Think about how silly this is: 
     SET @month_val = 'Month' + CAST(@month_nbr AS VARCHAR(2));
    We do not do display formatting in a query. This is a violation of at the tiered architecture principle. We have a presentation layer. But more than that, the INTERVAL temporal data type is a {year-month} and never just a month. This is fundamental. 
    We need to see the DDL so we can re-write this mess. Want to fix it or not?

  • Passing Session variable of DATE data type to opaque view filter

    Hi Everyone,
    Can you guys please help me in passing session variable of DATE data type in RPD's physical layer 'opaque view' filter for Oracle database
    I tried following syntax, syntax wise I didn't got getting any error, but at the same time this opaque view is not fetching any records as well. my session variable is "END_DATE" and its value is 1998/12/31:00:00:00(as shown in RPD session windows, datatype is DATETIME)

  • What is it about data types of local variables?

    Hey there!
    I'm trying hard to access the booleans, whose refnums got stored into an array. As the example show, everything's fine unless I start using local variables: I can access the data in the topmost FOR loop. As soon as variables come into play, it seems as if I have to explicitly typecast the data. Is it just me? There has to be a less complicated way... can anybody give me a hint?
