RE: Is range partitioning possible on part of varchar2 column ???
This seems to be a good idea. I will see if this is acceptable to my people.
Earliar I suggested to change to date field, and was not acceptable for them
as there seems plenty of code needs to be changed. I will see if this change
is acceptable for them.
One thing I could understand clearly from the LIST MEMBERS is that it is not
at all possible to range partition without changing the column
type/contents. I have two options now, one with what you suggested.
Thanks for your help and thanks for all those who replied.

Babu,
On a slightly different approach, is it possible to update the column to the
format MON, from the present MON? If so, then there is hope. You
could create the partitions like this
PARTITIONING BY RANGE (REPORT_CYCLE_CD)
(
PARTITION P1998 VALUES LESS THAN ('1999%'),
PARTITION P1999 VALUES LESS THAN ('2000%'),
PARTITION P2000 VALUES LESS THAN ('2001%'),
.
PARTITION PMAX VALUES LESS THAN (maxvalue)
)
Hope this helps.

I don't think partitions are clearly documented anywhere. Here is some SQL
that works so you can see how to use a date function. It partitions on two
columns, but I wanted you to see something that works.
add partition sum_fy_28
values less than ('FY', to_date('02012003','mmdd'))
tablespace data_fy_28

Dear List,
I have a table of size approx 10gig, and I need to partition based on the
YEAR. I have column in the table, REPORT_CYCLE_CD with VARCHAR2(7). The
data in the column of format MON . I need to partition the table
based
on the year , that is, substr(report_cycle_cd, 4,4).
Substr function doesn't seem to be permitted in the partitioning syntax
and
so am getting errors. Only TO_DATE function seems to be permitted. Since
it
is not a date column, I would like to know if there is a way to RANGE
partition the table, instead of HASH partitioning.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
-- Babu

Re: Is range partitioning possible on part of varchar2 column ??????
No, I think you will have to add a column to store '' separately in order to partition on it.
