Good day, we have a lot of partitioned tables and most of it is range partitions on a date field.

We have a couple of new tables and it is partitioned on a number field, also range partitioning.

The thing is, we have a script that does maintenance on a monthly basis and it caters for both version. However, it doesn't like the date message that is build in my stored proc as this is based on a date.

Table example:

Create table mis.mytable
(
sk_mytable_no number(Cool not null,
sk_receive_buy_date_no number(Cool not null,
)
Partition by range (sk_receive_buy_date_no)
(
Partition mytable_20041030
values less than (20041031)

My question: is there any place in Oracle where the column_name that the table is partitioned on, is stored? In this example is there a place where I can find the table mytable is partitioned by range on column sk_receive_buy_date_no.

Else I have to do some more coding to see whether a specific table is partitioned on a date or a number field. Sad

Hope someone can help me.

Michel, thank you for all the info. I'm new to Oracle and appreciate any help/assistance.

Do you perhaps know if there is a table where I can see what the datatype of the column in ALL_PART_KEY_COLUMNS is?

Example: myTable is partitioned on column sk_receive_buy_date_no - I need to know whether the partition key is a date or a number field.

Thanks
Adele
