Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> How set Date format Globally
Hi,
I have a requirement. Everytime when i make a session to the database i want the Date Format to beas follows
'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss'
The existing default format is 'dd-mon-yyyy' and so I tried the following steps.
ALTER SESSION set NLS_DATE_FORMAT='yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss' and put that in the login.sql it worked fine for my every client session.
How can I set it globally so that everytime when I make a session to database from any client It should be 'yyyy-mm-dd hh:mi:ss'.
Regards
Sundar
