The sql reference manual, format descriptors is your friend. You
didn't say which Oracle version. Here is a link for Oracle 9i:

Hello List,
Look into the queries below, why the result of first two queries is
starting with a blank space, and to get rid of this I have to substr
from position 2 rather than 1.
select substr(to_char(34.25,'99.99'),1,5) col1 from dual; --result
is ' 34.2'
