Export Dataset options number quoting for date

Toad for Oracle
1

When exporting dataset I use the following options for quoting:

  • String quoting: Double quote strings including nulls
  • Number quoting : Double quote strings including nulls

Unfortunately the dates are not quoted correctly:

“BARCODE”,“CHECKOUT_DATE”,“DUE_DATE”,“PATRON_ID”,“CHECKOUT_TYPE”,“LAST_NOTICE_DATE”,“RENEW_COUNT”,“NOTICE_COUNT”
“1901968082”,20.08.2018 ,24.09.2018 ,“50579”,“0”,“1”,“1”
“1900032405”,11.09.2018 ,06.11.2018 ,“8586”,“0”,“0”,“1”
“1900859302”,03.09.2018 ,01.10.2018 ,“39547”,“0”,“0”,“1”

Can somebody help me to figure out how to fix this?

Thanks
Bruce

Try casting them to strings in your query with TO_CHAR.

Thanks a lot! I used the following syntax:

TO_CHAR (CIRCDETL.CHECKOUT_DATE)

and it worked!

Best,
