The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

sql, loader, number
I am stucked on, I guess, very simple SQL Loader problem.
I will post a sample here.
Sample of my data:
49732,159978,0205200340,0205200340,2029.463, 0,0,12/02/2004,1,1,1
49733,159979,AB05200340,CD05200340,552029.25, 0,0,12/02/2004,1,1,1
49734,159980,XXY,ZXCYY,552, 0,0,12/02/2004,1,1,1
Control File:
LOAD DATA
BADFILE 'DATA.BAD'
DISCARDFILE 'DATA.DIS'
APPEND
INTO TABLE TEST
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' optionally enclosed by '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
( col1
, col2
, col3
, col4
, col5 FLOAT EXTERNAL
, col6
, col7
, col8 DATE "MM/DD/YYYY"
, col9
, col10
, col11
)
TABLE TEST
(
COL1 NUMBER NOT NULL,
COL2 NUMBER NOT NULL,
COL3 VARCHAR2(20 BYTE) NOT NULL,
COL4 VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
COL5 NUMBER NOT NULL,
COL6 INTEGER NOT NULL,
COL7 INTEGER NOT NULL,
COL8 DATE NOT NULL,
COL9 INTEGER NOT NULL,
COL10 VARCHAR2(10 BYTE),
COL11 VARCHAR2(10 BYTE)
)
I do have a problem loading data from column 5 which could be any decimal number with 2 or 3 decimal places.
If the column 5 has a number without any decimal places, then it loads fine.
The error I am receiving is:
Record 1: Rejected - Error on table TEST, column COL5.
ORA-01722: invalid number
Could you please advice how to fix the control file or post any other suggestions ?
