Only numeric fields or character fields containing numeric data may be used in arithmetic functions or expressions. Only numeric fields may be added to or subtracted from dates. Action: Check the character strings in the function or expression. Check that they contain only numbers, a sign, a decimal point, and the character "E" or "e" and retry the operation. I'd look at the data type of the object you've created. Make sure that you test the sql against the same data in toad and BO. Hope this helps,_________________Paul. Life is for Living, so live it!

UPDATE 3.3 Other Rare Situations What causes this error?[edit] An ORA-01722 ("invalid number") error occurs when an attempt is made to convert a ora 01722 invalid number oracle decode character string into a number, and the string cannot be converted into a

at the beginning or end of the string, or an 'E' or 'e' (if it is a floating point number in scientific notation). All other characters are forbidden. There are numerous situations http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?p=522186 where this conversion may occur. A numeric column may be the object of an INSERT or an UPDATE statement. Or, a numeric column may appear as part of a WHERE clause. It is even possible for this error to appear when there are no numeric columns appearing explicitly in the statement! Examples[edit] Here are some examples: SQL> select to_number('3434,3333.000') from dual; ERROR: ORA-01722: invalid number http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/ORA-01722 no rows selected The above statement throws the error message, because it has found a character, in this case, a comma and the default format for TO_NUMBER does not contain a comma. The same error can occur when you use arithmetic functions on strings: SQL> select 'abc' - 124 from dual; ERROR: ORA-01722: invalid number no rows selected The error can occur when you add dates with string values: SQL> select '01-JUN-01' - 'abc' from dual; ERROR: ORA-01722: invalid number no rows selected How to fix it[edit] The fix depends upon the exact expression which caused the problem. The following guide lists the possible SQL expressions which can give this error, with their most likely cause. When addressing this error, keep in mind that it can indicate a simple keystroke problem with the query, or a deeper problem with the query logic, or even the presence of bad data in the database itself. When doing an INSERT INTO ... VALUES (...)[edit] One of the data items you are trying to insert is an invalid number. Locate and correct it.
