Hello Listers, I was asked if there is any procedure that could be called from a trigger to replace (with a blank) or remove all non-printable characters from the text before inserting it in the target table? The incoming data is from a Web interface and may contain underline, bold, blink, NL characters. Target column should get characters 0-9, A-Z and a-z. The data should not be rejected.
I suggested use of 'replace', but was asked if I had anything already written to do this. And I have not. Done anyone have anything to share? Thanks. - Kirti -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.net -- Author: Deshpande, Kirti INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
