how to convert null to zero or other numeric value at data object level?
Can we convert null value into zero or other numeric values or even set its value to other column value at data window object level? (the column must be editable though -- not using computed column) I mean can we done it without having to code like this: lc_amt = dw_1.getitemdecimal(dw_1.getrow(), "amt") if isnull(lc_amt) then dw_1.setitem(dw_1.getrow(), "amt", 5) the conversion must take place at data object itself not after it is placed in a window. thanks, rony It would depend on the DBMS you are using. In Oracle you can use NVL in the SQL of your...

Leading zero in a string
Hi All, I have a variable I'm reading off of the command line: my $option = shift; That variable should hold a number between 1 and 31 (yes, a day of the month) I am checking to make sure that the number does indeed lie in that range. However, I need to pass that variable to another system command which expects any "day" value less than 10 to have a leading zero, so 7th day of the month should say '07'. How can I check for that leading zero? If it's missing, I know I could easily: $option = "0".$option; But I can't seem to figur...

Zero-width split() match creates empty trailing strings but not empty leading strings
The perlfunc documentation spells this out clearly, and it matches what I see: $ perl -e 'for (split(//, "fob", -1)) { print "$_\n"; }' | sed -e 's/^$/<blank>/' f o b <blank> The question on my mind is why. In particular, is it a decision worth replicating to language's libraries? Thanks for any pointers. I tried to find the source for split, and I think I may have found it in pp_split in pp.c. But there's not really any reason to expect the source code to include the justification, and I couldn't find one. http:/...

How do I convert a string to a DateTime value??
Ok...I give up.... It use to be (in versions 1.0/1.1 of the framework) you could convert a string to a datetime value by simply executing the following:  System.DateTime X=System.Convert.ToDateTime(<string value>); as long as you used the System library. Unfortunately,  it would appear that Microsoft got smart and has left out this ability in the 2.0 framework in it's never ending attempt to screw the developer. Now it's quite true that I could write a parser to parse the string....but I would STILL need to convert the items to a number.  Any ideas?? PS:  I'...
