sp_helptext in Oracle

To get a result similar to sp_helptext SQL Server procedure in Oracle, you can use the following query:

 

SET LINESIZE 132

SET LONG 4000

 WHERE NAME = 'YOUR_PROCEDURE_NAME'

 

If you have another solution, please let me know… I didn’t find anything better than this…

PS: You should use the command window to be able to execute this query

Regular Expressions Code Template in VBScript

The template below is to be used when you have a string and you want to get date information.

varString = the original string that will be used

iItem = Number of ocurrency (1 = first , 2 = second and so on)

sDate = The date time based on a month retrieved from the original string.

Example: 12345 12MAR 25APR 3MAY (Remember: the months are in English)…

Function CheckDate(varString, iItem, sDate)

    Dim iIndex

    Dim objRegExp, objMatch, objMatches

    Dim sDay

    Dim iMonthChar

    Dim bIsDate

    Dim strMonths

    Dim strMonth

   

    bIsDate = False

    'check if the string contains a month

    Set objRegExp = CreateObject("VBScript.RegExp")

    objRegExp.Pattern = "JAN|FEB|MAR|APR|MAY|JUN|JUL|AUG|SEP|OCT|NOV|DEC"

    objRegExp.IgnoreCase = True

    objRegExp.Global = True

   

    'get the matches if there be

    Set objMatches = objRegExp.Execute(varString)

    iIndex = 1

    For Each objMatch In objMatches

        If iIndex = iItem Then

            strMonth = objMatch.value

            iMonthChar = objMatch.FirstIndex

            Exit For

        Else

            iIndex = iIndex + 1

        End If

    Next

    

    If strMonth = "" Then

        sDate = ""

    Else

        sDay = Mid(varString, iMonthChar - 1, 2)

        If IsNumeric(sDay) Then

            sDate = GetFormattingData(sDay & strMonth, False)

            bIsDate = IsDate(sDate)

        End If

    End If

     CheckDate = bIsDate

 End Function
