Perhaps this is a common request : I have 2 tables:
Table A
-------
ID Value
1 a
2 b
3 c
Table B
-------
ID AnotherValue
1 x
2 y
I am hoping to append a column from Table B to Table A based on a simple sql join (e.g:
Table A
ID Value AnotherValue
1 a x
2 b y
3 c (null)
)
I would rather stay away from the standard update statement since it takes far to long and I'd prefer not to use create table as I don't want to duplicate any data...is this possible to do ? (e.g: just insert the columns into this table ?) - or if it's possible the performance overhead just wouldn't make it worth it ?
Declare Cursor c1...; Cursor c2...; begin open c1 ; fecth c1 bulk collect into v1; close c1;
[Code]...
Is there any way by which if condition gets true then v1 gets appended rather than being overwritten?
declare type lst_deptno is table of dept.deptno%type index by binary_integer; type lst_deptno_emp is table of emp.deptno%type index by binary_integer; v_deptno lst_deptno; v_deptno_emp lst_deptno_emp; cursor c1 is select deptno from dept;
if the same name repeating it should to append with _1 and _2 until same name reached.

I am just looking to my control file that I have. I have managed to successfully get my control file to load data into the required tables but just for my learning I was trying to amend the when clause with an and condition but keep getting an error.
My code: OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE, ERRORS=0, SKIP=1) load data infile 'A:/My Files/Feeds/20130211/data_summary_1_20131214.txt' "STR ' '"
APPEND into table I_DATA_1 WHEN (RID <> 'RID') fields terminated by "~|~" optionally enclosed by '"' TRAILING NULLCOLS ( RID, S_TIMESTAMP timestamp 'DD-MON-RR HH:MI:SS.FF3 PM' )
the above code works perfectly but if i change the following line:
WHEN (RID <> 'RID' AND 'S_TIMESTAMP' IS NOT NULL)than this gives me an error.
I have a requirement when I need to append and show the contents of a CLOB (rich text) column into the Open office report.
The use case is as below. User(s) can enter the details into a CLOB column. This data entered by each user need to be concatenated onto another CLOB column which will hold all the history of changes. Mainly i wanted to perform a concatenation of these two columns.
| | User Entered | Stored | | Data Stored in Clob Column 1| Data Stored in Clob Column 2 | | v_clob_1 | v_clob_target | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |"Text 1" and a image |"Text 1" and a image | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Any method to achieve this case. I had tried the following method to achieve this. But no success.

I want to append the timestamp to spooled log file name in SQL*Plus.The spooled log filename should look like
WMS_APP_23-March-2013.logI tried the following 3 methods found in the google. But none of them worked !
I tried this
col sysdt noprint new_value sysdt_var SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'yyyymmdd_hh24miss') sysdt FROM DUAL; spool run_filename_&sysdt_var.Logas suggested in

and this
spool filename with timestamp col sysdt noprint new_value sysdt SELECT TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, 'yyyymmdd_hh24miss') sysdt FROM DUAL; spool run_filename_&sysdt..Logas suggested in

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.
I've got SQL code generated by an HP tool to make an update of itself. This code is not modifiable because was execute 'in background' from the tool updater.
The macro operations made by the updater (through sql code) are:
--create a copy of actual table and rename with '_old' suffix --create new table, with indexes and constraints --insert data into new table from old tables
Now, only in one table, when the data were inserted, an ORA-00001: unique constraint (ASSET_SVIL.CFG_CFGSECTIONCFGE) violated, appear.
To insert data is used an insert/select statement with an HINT /* APPEND */. We verify all the data existing in the old table (that is the data to 'migrate') but there aren't duplicate record!
BUT IF WE REMOVE THE HINT /* APPEND */, THE INSERT/SELECT STATEMENT WORKS WITHOUT GENERATE ERRORS!!
I want to do an import of a table from my old dump file.The same table is already there in the development box but few more columns are added to that table while testing so in the dump those columns are not available.

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)?
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?
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 a query which returns nearly 20k rows, as per the requiremnet we need to append all these rows in specific format and insert into single clob column.in the below procedure test_clob.textt is clob field.

I've created a materialized view log on table with the following statement:
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW LOG ON table_a WITH ROWID, SEQUENCE (column_a, column_b, column_c) INCLUDING NEW VALUES;
The insert is done with the following statement:
INSERT /*+ APPEND PARALLEL("table_a") */ INTO "table_a" ("column_a", "column_b", "column_c", "column_d_sum") (select column_a", "column_b", "column_c", "column_d_sum" from table_B)
But the Log is empty when the insert is finished. When I insert rows without the APPEND hint, rows are created in the log table. So, doesn't the log record bulk loads?
My requirement is to export Oracle table's data into an already existing excel file with Macros (.xlsm) using a procedure. I am able to write/append the data into the simple .xls file. But I am searching whether any way of appending into .xlsm file. "how can we append the data into a Macro-enabled excel file?".
We have a table for reports. If user A submits a report ...and say the sequence # is 242. When this report goes to Admin ...he submits this request then in same table we add another row with say sequence # 245. THEN we update column called 'Asctd ID' for 242 and add 245 in there. and then update Asctd ID for 245 and add 242 in there.
(This table has many fields, one of which is report Name field)
Now i am running a query like this...
SELECT b.JOB_ID, a.DESC, TO_CHAR(a.CREATE_DATE,'MM/DD/YYYY'), DECODE(a.DLVRY_TYPE,'','PDF',a.DLVRY_TYPE), DECODE(a.FLG,'','N/A', a.FLG), ((TO_DATE(a.CREATE_DATE,'DD-MON-YY')) + 21) - TO_DATE(SYSDATE, 'DD-MON-YY'), c.STATUS_DESC, a.SIZE_NUM, b.PRVDR_ID, a.asctd_id, d.NM FROM REQUEST_DIM a, PROVIDER_DIM b, STATUS_DIM c, DIM d WHERE a.FLAG = 'P' and RTRIM(a.RPT_RQST_USER_ID) = 'TEST02' AND a.RPT_RQST_TYPE = 'D' AND a.RPT_RQST_ACTIVE_IND = 'A' and a.asctd_id is not null and a.RPT_RQST_ID = b.RPT_RQST_ID and b.JOB_ID = c.JOB_ID and b.PRVDR_ID = d.PRVDR_ID AND c.CREATE_DT = (SELECT MAX(d.CREATE_DT) FROM STATUS_DIM d WHERE d.RPT_RQST_ID = b.RPT_RQST_ID and d.JOB_ID = b.JOB_ID ) ORDER BY a.RPT_RQST_ID, a.CREATE_DATE
Now this query is run by the admin (job 245) ...it returns a bunch of stuff and also the name of the report that the admin gave this. But when admin sees this we want to be able to displace the report name that user A gave it (asctd ID 242). so the row 245 HAS a asctd ID 242. and there is a row 242 from which we can get the name easily. But i dont know if this is possible in ONE QUERY??
I have an application which deploys the data to Oracle database. It has more than 25 tables and many columns. It does not have any document explaining the deployment, so I am kind of doing reverse engineering here.
I need a script which will fetch the column name or at least table names which will match with either some string or number? I found few examples on net to find out number. But I am struggling to make it work for string.
I can not work on stored proc, as I do not have access to create that on server. So, any script will work.
