All Columns Of A Table Are Part Of Primary Key Column Of That Table?
Feb 22, 2011
if a table contains two columns and both are part of the primary key of that table (Kind of obvoius).
should i opt for a index organized tbale in this case ?Or should i opt for another running sequential colum which would serve as a primary key of this table and define the actual two columns of the system as unique keys.
there is a drawback if a most of the tables of a database contain composite primary keys?

We have a table in the client database that has two columns - column parent and column child. The whole hierarchy of DB table dependencies is held in this table.If Report 1 is dependent on Table A and Table A in turn is dependent on two tables Table M and Table N. Table N is dependent on table Z it will appear in the db table as,
Hierarchy Table
Parent Child
Report1Table A
Table ATable M
Table ATable N
Table NTable Z
Requirement :
From the above structure, we need to build a table which will hold the complete hierarchy by breaking it into multiple columns.The o/p should look like this
-ParentChild 1Child 2 Child 3
-Report1Table ATable M
-Report1Table ATable N Table Z
Child 1, Child 2, Child 3 ....and so on are columns.The number of tables and the no of hierarchical relationships are dynamic.
SQL Statements to create hierarchy table:
create table hierarchy (parent varchar2(20), child varchar2(20));
insert into hierarchy values ('Report1','Table A');
insert into hierarchy values ('Report1','Table B');
insert into hierarchy values ('Table A','Table M');
insert into hierarchy values ('Table B','Table N');
insert into hierarchy values ('Report2','Table P');
insert into hierarchy values ('Table M','Table X');
insert into hierarchy values ('Table N','Table Y');
insert into hierarchy values ('Report X','Table Z');
Approached already tried :
1) Using indentation : select lpad(' ',20*(level-1)) || to_char(child) P from hierarchy connect_by start with parent='Report1' connect by prior child=parent;
2)Using connect by path function :
select *
from (select parent,child,level,connect_by_isleaf as leaf, sys_connect_by_path(child,'/') as path
from hierarchy start with parent='Report1'
connect by prior child =parent) a where Leaf not in (0);
Both the approaches give the information but the hierarchy data appears in a single column.Ideally we would like data at each level to appear in a different column.

My scenario is to insert values into 'out' column by comparing 's' and 'IP' columns of temp table.The exact situation is at first need to go to ip column,take a value and then go to source column and check for the same value of ip which is taken previously.Then after corresponding ip of that source column should be inserted back in previous source column.
The situation is marked clearly in file which i am attaching with '--' comments at respective places.I am also pasting the code which i tried out,unfortunately it is giving error as exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows since there are duplicates in the table.I tried it using nested for loops.Also implemented using rowid,but it didnt work.
fixing the errors or if there is any new logic that can be implemented.
DECLARE
i_e NUMBER(10);
BEGIN
FOR cur_1 IN(SELECT IP from temp where IP IS NOT NULL)
LOOP
FOR cur_2 IN(SELECT IP from temp where s=cur_1.IP)

I have a table that has 2 columns of type nested table. Now in the purge process, when I try to truncate or drop a partition from this table, I get error that I can't do this (because table has nested tables). how I will be able to truncate/drop partition from this table? IF I change column types from nested table to varray type, will it work?
Also, is there any short method of moving existing data from a nested table column to a varray column (having same fields as nested table)?

I am trying to update columns of Table A with the columns of Table B. Both these tables have 60,000 rows each. I tried this operation using following 2 queries:
Query 1
Update TableA A
set
(A.col1,A.col2,A.col3)=(select B.col1,B.col2,B.col3
from TableB
where A.CODE=B.CODE)
Query 2
Update TableA A
set
(A.col1,A.col2,A.col3)=(select B.col1,B.col2,B.col3
from TableB
where A.CODE=B.CODE)
where exists
A.code = (select B.code
from TableB B
where A.code=B.code)
When i execute these two above queries, it keeps executing indefinitely.

I have 3 pages: - Classes: a Classic Report that shows a list of classes and summarises attendance- Class Attendance Report: An Interactive Report that shows a row for each student that attended a class- Attendance Add / Edit Form On the Classes page, the Date value is a Link which passes a filter in the URL to the Class Attendance Report, showing only students who attended the class held on this date On the Class Attendance Report, I want to have a Region Button that, when clicked, goes to the Attendance Add / Edit Form and the Class Date field on this form is automatically populated with the same date value as was being used for the filter on the Interactive Report on the Class Attendance Report Page. So, I click on the Class Date link for 2013-11-01, this takes me to the Class Attendance Report and filters for students who have been already entered as attending on 2013-11-01. If I click on the "Add Attendance" button, it goes to the Attendance Add / Edit form and the Class Date is automatically set to 2013-11-01. I assume I need to do this via a Dynamic Action that runs when the "Add Attendance" button on the Class Attendance Report page is clicked?

I have a table of addresses where the indexed column consists of the city, an optional area name, the street name and the street number. For example 'Stockholm Drottninggatan 2'.
The users must enter the full city name and the beginning of the street name. So if the user wants to find all the addresses of both the streets Stockrosvägen and Stockbergsvägen which are in Stockholm, the query would look something like this:
Select * From AddressSearch
Where Contains(AddressSearch.Address, 'Stockholm AND Stock%') > 0;
But this will select all the addresses of Stockholm. Is there a way to make the part after the AND not match the already matched first part?

Is is required to check the number of rows updated in a table when the primary key of the table is used in the filter criteria of the update statement? As I know,by default it will update only one record. But if it happens to be an important transaction table and only one record is required to be updated, then is it the best practice to use the 'SQL%ROWCOUNT' check in the query, even if the update query is using primary key in filter clause.
Example:Consider Trans table with trans_id as primary key. Then:
Update Trans
set trans_status='pass'
where trans_id=123;
I know this will update only one record. But what is the best practice? Shall I use 'SQL%ROWCOUNT' after this update to double check whether the record is updated or not?

I would like to reorganize a table inorder of primary key but I'm not sure if I'm expecting the right thing from dbms_redefinition package.
I am working on oracle 9i 9.2.0.8
I have the following table :
SELECT * from SCOTT.TESTTABLE
ID REF
---------- ----------
1 FF
2 BB
3 CC
4 DD
8 EE
6 ZZ
7 YY
5 GG
when I use the CODEexec dbms_redefinition.start_redef_table('SCOTT', 'TESTTABLE', 'TESTTABLE2', 'id id, ref ref', dbms_redefinition.cons_use_pk);
Would the newly created scott.testtable be created in order of primary key (ID) thus a select * from scott.testtable will give me an ordered result?
When I do the test, the table before and after the redefinition is exactly the same so why use the CONS_USE_PK if it doesn't order the table by primary key?

I have normal tables with hugh Data and would like to increase the performace by following means:
1) Add a new column in each table. Say this column Name is IS_LIVE. This new column have only two value 1 ( LIVE ) OR 0 ( NOT LIVE ).
2) Change the normal tables to Partitioned table. There would be only two partitioned in all the table. The partitioned key column would be IS_LIVE and both partitioend recrods would be in two different tablespace.
3) Added a POLICY function to these partitioned table to Always add a Query Predicate of '1' to all queuries.
I am interested to know that what kind of Indexes ( Global Or local ) would be suitable for these kind of Design.Is there any use of having Local index on IS_LIVE.Please note that Primary Key doesnot have this new column in it.

I have an employee table which has a primary key and a self referencing foreign key, as shown here
create table employee (
id not null,
name not null,
department not null,
supervisor_id not null
,constraint constraint_1 primary key (id)
,constraint constraint_2 foreign key (supervisor_id) references employee (id));
Now if i make the primary key composite, as shown below -
create table employee (
id not null,
name not null,
department not null,
supervisor_id not null
,constraint constraint_1 primary key (id, name)
,constraint constraint_2 foreign key (supervisor_id) references employee (id));
Oracle is throwing the following error -
ORA-02270: no matching unique or primary key for this column-list
How can this error be fixed without changing the composite primary key?

I am creating a pl/sql procedure to populate a primary key (discount_seq_no) with a database sequence. The intent is to keep this populated with next value incrementing by 1.
I am using Oracle 11.2.0.2 version.
I've put together the below code, not sure on next steps...
