Hi
I am loading some data into tables and one of the fields that is coming
in is a date field. It is in a two digit format. Now on querying this
data it shows me all those dates before 1949 as 2049 or so. I know this
is because of 50 year pivot of date format that oracle uses and this is
the default. Is there any way to change this and make it a 30 to 70 year
break up??.
If my question is not clear it is as follows:
The Oracle's default format of date of two digit is 'RR' type and any
date less that 50 years from today it will be considered THIS century
and any date more than 50 years from today it will be considered the
NEXT century. Can I change this format to 70 and 30 year format instead
of 50-50??
I will really appreciate some help here.
