Re: How to find duplicate records in a table To find find duplicate records with JE_NUMBER,MONTH and ENTITY_REFERENCE combination use select JE_NUMBER,MONTH,ENTITY_REFERENCE, count(1) from JE_DESC group by JE_NUMBER,MONTH,ENTITY_REFERENCE having count(1) > 1

(e.g. Did it return 0 rows, etc. ) is your column being compared varchar2 or char? are they all capital letters? hmm, I used Apex online (apex.oracle.com) to test, it ran correctly. Ok how about this (it also ran correctly on apex online). w i t hta s-" s a m p l ed a t a " ( s e l e c t' d ' ' s i l v a 'n a m e _f r o md u a lu n i o na l l s e l e c t' j o h n 'n a m e _f r o md u a lu n i o na l l s e l e c t' d ' ' a b o 'n a m e _f r o md u a l )-" e n ds a m p l ed a t a " s e l e c tn a m e _ f r o mt w h e r en a m e _l i k e' d ' | | c h r ( 3 9 ) | | ' % ' You may also want to read about regexp_like.

12. Re: How to get the record which contains single quote in APEX Hi

I have a text like this d'skjdlkjkd, a'kjkjd. I can able to find in plsql using double quote like d''skdlkjd, But how can i do in apex? select name from <table> where name like (d''skjdlkjkd) is possible in plsql. select name from <table> where name like (d'skjdlkjkd) is it possible? I want to replace this(') with (''), is there any idea in apex? I searched in reg_exp also.

Assuming that you are connecting ( APEX and sql*plus) to the same DB version the query will run in both. The only time it won't run is if APEX and sql*plus connect to different versions and you use commands that are version specific like regexp_count for 11g, other regular expressions for 10g/11g. In your case chr(39) is equal to apostrophe (')
