Below Query I understand is improper wrt syntax. Need to modify query to fetch correct result for me.
select * from tableA order by
case when a is not null then
a DESC
else
b DESC, c DESC END
Note: DESC or ASC is dynamic coming from java-code.
I am using oracle database 11g.My use case is I do have a table with following valuesTable name -test
product id productsortdescription
H58098 ACETAMIDOHYDROXYPHENYLTHIAZOLE
043994 Alloy .MM.INTHICK My query is
select * from test order by productsortdescription; this query gives result as is like
product id productsortdescription
H58098 ACETA
product id productsortdescription
H58098 ACETAMIDOHYDROXYPHENYLTHIAZOLE
043994 Alloy .MM.INTHICK
MIDOHYDROXYPHENYLTHIAZOLE

I saw a strange plan for one query in TESTING DB today. Although 2 tables are involved i dont see any join , NL/HJ/SMJ !! i am not facing any performance issue but curious to know what type of optimization oracle is doing here.
Query text and plan :
SELECT FIRST_NAME
FROM CAMPA.TABLE_A
WHERE NAME_ID =
(SELECT NAME_ID
FROM CAMPA.TABLE_B
WHERE ban=:b1);
[code]....
I know the only way to guarantee a specific sort order result when querying table is by using the order by clause. However, I have an issue where I do not have access to the code for the web user interface of a very lightly used interface (has two users). In that user interface is a drop down box that is populated by a table - one table. The drop down box is populated by the query "select [column name] from [table name]". Right now there are 400+ rows in that table total, so it's small but not having the items ordered is a pain.
I would like to alter something on the db side so the result of "select [column name] from [table name]" is an ordering by the column descending. I don't want the sort order to be the same for all queries (including joins and all) just want to control the order for that one query. It is Oracle9i.
I have a name field like below; i need a query to display the name field in alphabetical order like in dictionary.
Emp Name
--------
Sam
John
Noel
Alen
Saaem
output would be
---------------
Alen
John
Noel
Saaem
Sam
I have data that i am sorting, the data is mostly numeric (format of XXX-1234). is there any way to have my query sort xxx-1000 AFTER xxx-999? right now i am thinking i will have to create a separate sort order column on my table.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHow to avoid sort operation by an order by clause without changing the sort area size.what hints or changes should be done in query so that order by clause work faster.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI just wanted to know how the query will be executed in case of where clause and ROWNUM clause. e.g, consider below query.
SELECT * FROM emp
WHERE dept IN (20, 30, 21)
AND salary < 10000
AND rownum <2;
My question is that when rownum will be executed?
1. First all the data according to where clause will be fetched and rownum is assigned and then rownum will be executed on that data.
2. First complete data will be fetched, ROWNUM will be applied and then WHERE clause will be executed along with ROWNUM clause.
Haw to sort the data based on financial year.
For example Indain Fiscal year 01-Apr-2010 to 31-Mar-2011
Apr2010 -1
May2010 -2

I have a temp table and want to insert that data into 2 tables. In both of my tables i have a sequence column but in my second table its a foreign key to the main table
up_query="INSERT INTO AFFILIATE (FNAME,LNAME,EMAIL,PHONE,ORG,ADDRESS1,ADDRESS2,COUNTY_ID,AFF_ID)
Select a.FNAME, a.LNAME,a.EMAIL,a.PHONE, a.ORG, a.ADDRESS1, a.ADDRESS2,C.COUNTY_ID,'AF'||aff_seq.nextval
FROM temp_aff A LEFT OUTER JOIN COUNTY C
ON UPPER(A.COUNTY)=C.CNAME";
$up_query2= "INSERT INTO TEST4 (DEPT_ID,CAMP_ID,AFF_ID, PASSWD)
SELECT D.DEPT_ID,C.CAMP_ID,aff_seq.currval,'Zq'||dbms_random.string('A',4)||'$8' from dual,TEMP_AFF A
left outer join DEPT D ON (UPPER(A.DEPT)=UPPER(D.DNAME))
left outer join CAMPUS C ON (UPPER(A.CAMPUS)=UPPER(C.CPNAME))";
However in my test4 table its inserting the aff_seq.currval for all records. Its not incrementing as in the affiliate table.
I've already check on internet and the forum if there is a way to maximize a window on the secondary monitor instead of the main one. There is a parameter to make that? or Oracle forms maximize the windows only on the main screen?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a query that will either return one record or zero records. When it returns zero records I want to replace my attributes with a sentinel, like 'N/A'. I tried the CASE statement but couldn't get anything to work
Sample (does not work):
select
(case when exists (select product from tbl_product where productid = '123') then product else 'N/A' end) product
from tbl_product
where productid= '123';
If one record exists it should produce: 'My Widget' (or whatever)
If zero records exist it should produce: 'N/A'
The query has a case statement in the where clause so that results can be filtered. If I pass "ut" for sso_id then the query returns 21 rows. If I remove the case statement and hard code "a.sso_id like lower('ut'||'%')" then the query returns 41 rows. The query should be returning 41 rows all the time.
Problem:
When passing "ut" as an SSOID parameter to the Procedure the query returns 21 rows.Taking the query and hard coding "a.sso_id like lower('ut'||'%')" the query returns 41 rows.
Result:
query should be returning 41 rows when "ut" is passed an an SSOID parameter.
Returns 21 rows

Primary RAC and Standby RAC databases are using version 10.2.0.4. They are configured & controlled via Data Guard Broker. Currently, the observer runs from one of the Standby nodes. All are on Solaris x86 64bit OS version 10.
Now, I have to move Observer to 3rd DC and I am looking If I could use another OS for observer instead of same as DB OS version. Why? Our new infrastructure is on RHEL Linux, therefore, I would like to deploy observer once and then wait for existing databases to be upgraded and moved to RHEL. Also, i understand that database and observer software should be of same version e.g. 10g, 11g.
My question is what if i install & configure observer on RHEL ? The end result would be:
1. Primary DB: Solaris 10, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
2. Secondary/Standby DB: Solaris 10, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
3. Observer: RHEL 5.8, Oracle Software binaries version 10.2.0.4
Is it accepted mix configuration say e.g. to run for six months? Also, it would be grateful to know if there any license implications when running observer on a different node running no databases at all.

if when you are querying a table in 11g and you use the order by clause and there is more than one occurrences with the same values in the order by, if the 11g default is different than from 10g.
For instance.
DECLARE MHBulk CURSOR FOR select invoice_nbr, customer_nbr, post_century, post_yymmdd, from CUSTOMERS where customer_nbr = 1234 order by post_century, post_yymmdd;
If you have more than one occurrence of the same customer_nbr, post_century, and post_yymmdd
it looks like the default order for how 11g retrieves the records is a bit different than the 10g default.
Here is my query to fetch only 10 records from order by result set.

INSERT INTO MYMERCHANT(SRNO, PARENTSRNO, LEVELNO, LEVELNAME ) VALUES ( 3, 1, 103, 'DIV2' ) ;
[code]........
Structure is like above. There is a Head Quarter (HQ1) under which we have different division like (DIV1 and DIV2). Under division we have different location where our shopping stores are operating and transactions are done (LOC1, LOC2 for DIV1) and (LOC3 for DIV2) respectively.
DESIRED OUTPUT
User can generate reports at two levels i.e. Head Quarter level and Division Level.
When user wants report at Head Quarter Level :
Page 1 (Should Display as below)
HQ1 DIV1 LOC1 450
HQ1 DIV1 LOC2 400
HQ1 DIV2 LOC3 600
Page 2 (Should Display as below)
HQ1 DIV1 LOC1 450
HQ1 DIV1 LOC2 400
Page 3 (Should Display as below)
HQ1 DIV2 LOC3 600
When user wants report at Division Level : eg DIV1
Page 1 (Should Display as below)
HQ1 DIV1 LOC1 450
