This type of error can be easily demonstrated:
select TO_DATE('2007/09/19 10:00', 'YYYY/MM/DD') date_fmt
from dual;
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
In this scenario it's very easy to spot the problem, because it's clearly caused by an input string longer than the date format mask (16 char string instead of the expected 10 char string), however it may be less obvious when an implicit conversion is occurring.
for instance:
CREATE TABLE TEST1 (d DATE)
/
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_DATE_FORMAT = 'DD/MM/YYYY'
/
declare
a varchar2(20) := '19/09/2007 12:00:00';
begin
INSERT INTO TEST1 (d) VALUES (a);
end;
/
ORA-01830: date format picture ends before converting entire input string
So, when you get ORA-01830, you must always determine what the current NLS_DATE_FORMAT is and see if there is some implicit conversion going on.

hi
Please try the below one
SELECT to_char(TO_DATE('08/12/2007 11:00 ','MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI'),'MM-DD-YYYY') FROM DUAL;
i hope this is correct.
welcome........................
Hi Madhu,
it works as expected.
What's wrong with it?
Is perhaps the trailing blank the reason of your concern?
Blanks don't affect the result, they will be trimmed wherever they are found in the input string.
Bye,
Flavio
