Thank you very much for your help.   This works great:     put(md5(scan(str,2,'/')),$hex32.) as want Also concatenating this with other strings - something like that:   'FIRST_STRING' || put(md5(scan(str,2,'/')),$hex32.) || 'THIRD_STRING' Thank you very much. Best regards Frank ... View more

I have forgotten:   I think - this is no oracle problem - just a sas problem     ... View more

Wow - very fast:)     the select of post 1 works . It is just a select from a sas-base-table. The HASH-value looks correct.     The i try the insert into an oracle-db:   PROC SQL; INSERT INTO oraSY052.STF_LFA_I_LOGFILE_2016 (REPORT_PATH) SELECT md5(SUBSTR(s.path,findc(s.path, '/',2)+1,findc(SUBSTR(s.path,findc(s.path, '/',2)+2), '/',2))) as key format $hex32. from SB0520C.WRSREPORTS s; run;   The inserted values don´t look correct ( itried it also without "as key format $hex32."):   “ââ!³LÙÏ€P
É¿_‰ ÿŒé8Ž€]eºEéš\ÏÒˆ   So the INSERT concerts the data and make it corrupt --> that´s the first problem.     But in my real project i have a case-query in the select-statement and must concanate the md5-value with some other strings (this is an example without concanating the string):   INSERT INTO &_INPUT. (REPORTNAME, REPORT_PATH, SASSESSION, DESCRIPTION, CODE, SESSIONS, USERID, STAND_DATUM_ZEIT, STAND_DATUM, LAST_UPDATE) SELECT substr(REPORT,findc(REPORT, '/', "B") + 1), CASE SUBSTR(REPORT,2, findc(SUBSTR(REPORT,2), '/')-1) WHEN 'User Folders' THEN md5(SUBSTR(s.path,findc(s.path, '/',2)+1,findc(SUBSTR(s.path,findc(s.path, '/',2)+2), '/',2))) as key format $hex32. ELSE REPORT END AS REPORT_PATH, SASSESSION, DESCRIPTION,......   Here i get the errors:    Zeile 4.308: ERROR 73-322: Erwartet wird END.  Zeile 4.310: ERROR 22-322: Syntaxfehler, erwartet wird eines der folgenden: eine Zeichenkette in Hochkommata, ',', AS, FORMAT, FROM, INFORMAT, INTO, LABEL, LEN, LENGTH, TRANSCODE.  Zeile 4.310: ERROR 202-322: The option or parameter is not recognized and will be ignored.  Zeile 4.319: ERROR 79-322: Erwartet wird ')'.  Zeile 4.319: ERROR 76-322: Syntaxfehler, Anweisung wird ignoriert.       Thank you very much ...

Hello,   that´s my target:   I have a log file with entries:   /User Folders/REAL_USERNAME/Eigener Ordner/documentation.pdf   Because of data protection i want to replace the "REAL_NAME" with a MD5-Hash.   I have a SAS-Base-Table with the Log-FIle-entries and want to insert this data into an oracle-db.   Something like that: insert into .... SELECT '/' || SUBSTR(REPORT,2, findc(REPORT, '/',2)-2) || '/' || md5(SUBSTR(REPORT,findc(REPORT, '/',2)+1,findc(SUBSTR(REPORT,findc(REPORT, '/',2)+2), '/',2))) as key format $hex32. length=16 ||.... from SB0520C.WRSREPORTS s;   So i must concanate each part of the string --> but this don´t work. I tried it also with cat - but this also didn´t work and beyond this cat has just a buffer with 200 bytes - and this is to short.   How can i make this? Or does someone has a better solution?   Thank you very much Best regards Frank     ... View more
