trying to order date chronologically

2003-01-17 Thread DiFelice, Sebastian
Is there a way to order the result set of a query by date chronologically?
For example, I run a usage report for customers either monthly, quarterly,
semi annual or annually.  I need to return the result set chronologically by
month and I cannot seem to find a way to do it.
Thanks for any help!

2002-09-20 Thread DiFelice, Sebastian

When I upgraded and migrated from 8.1.5 to 8.1.7 the Universal
Installer/Migration Assistant moved my $ORACLE_BASE from /disk03/app/oracle
to /disk03/app/oracle/product/8.1.5 (which is my $ORACLE_HOME) without
prompting me for the move.

problems creating a context index

2002-09-12 Thread DiFelice, Sebastian

Hello All;

I am being plagued with an error I can't get my hands around when I try to
recreate a context index.  The index existed previously, but when I tried to
sync new data I got an error, then I attempted rebuilding the index from
scratch and got the same error (see below).  I checked the $ORACLE_HOME/lib
directory and found the library that the error indicates as missing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!


sql statements executed:

call Ctx_Ddl.Drop_stoplist ('my_stoplist')
/
call Ctx_Ddl.create_stoplist('my_stoplist')
/
drop index TFNR_DISPLAY_NAME_IDX_C
/
create index TFNR_DISPLAY_NAME_IDX_C on TFNR (Display_Name) 
indextype is ctxsys.context
parameters ('stoplist my_stoplist')
/


error returned:

any tips on migrating from 7.3.4 to 8.1.7

2002-09-05 Thread DiFelice, Sebastian

 Hello All,
 
 I am currently involved in a migration project which involves combining
 two disparate databases into a single Oracle Engine.  One of the databases
 currently lives on Oracle 7.3.4 and the other is 8.1.5 (both desupported
 by Oracle).  My task is to upgrade to a single instance of 8.1.7 (and
 eventually 9.2.x).  Are there any road bumps that I should be aware of
 before undertaking this endeavor?
 
 Any tricks/tips are appreciated.
 
 Thank you in advance
