Hello Guys,
This is my first post in orafaq.com
I have an issue.
I have one column name party_name containing Korean Characters and English characters.
Some of the English characters have different symbols.
My requirement is to get the data and exclude those symbols but not Korean characters.
Already I used a function to replace special symbols with space.
The function contains code based on ASCII values it works good but it filters Korean characters too.
Please find the attachment of the screenshot,
When I double click the name it shows with some question mark.

./fa/10588/0/

Anyone please help me out with this issue.


Thanks.

>Some of the English characters have different symbols.

Do you expect us to guess which characters are "different"?
Different from what?

>My requirement is to get the data and exclude those symbols but not Korean characters.
While you may have clarity regarding "those symbols", I don't know which should be kept & which should be discarded.

Ok,

I am looking for a SQL query which checks for special character(s) in a string and replace them with space

My input will be like this

OFFICER DISTRIBUIDORA DE PRODUTOS DE INFORM�ICA
4073 - OFFICER�DISTRIB
PAUTA DISTRIBU�O E LOGISTICA SA


The Output should be like

OFFICER DISTRIBUIDORA DE PRODUTOS DE INFORM ICA
4073 - OFFICER DISTRIB
PAUTA DISTRIBU O E LOGISTICA SA

It means replacing the symbols with space.

Thanks

Use DUMP function to see what is in the database:
select dump(PARTY_NAME) from hz_parties where party_name like '%OFFICER DISTRIBUIDORA DE PRODUTOS DE%';
