How Many Quotes To Use In Dynamic Query Using IN Clause With String
Nov 23, 2011
I have a dynamic query which has this clause in it: WHERE [COLUMN NAME] IN (' || theString || ')
My problem is that theString is being passed in through a C# call and the variable is a bunch of strings concatenated together and separated by a comma. Ex: theString = "'val1','val2'"
How many quotes are supposed to go around val1 and val2?
I've tried the following and none work:
'val1','val2'
''val1','val2''
''val1'',''val2''
'''val1'',''val2'''
''''val1'',''val2''''
When I run the procedure in Oracle it works with '''val1'',''val2'''
Here is a sample function which takes in a string of CSV fields and prints the third field :
create or replace function restr(istr varchar2) return INTEGER is var_1 varchar2(30); begin dbms_output.put_line('input:'||istr); select regexp_substr(',' || istr,1,3,null,1) into var_1 from dual;
[Code]..
When I pass an input string as :
JOHN,MARY,O'DONNEL,O'CONNELLY,MARK
with quotes/apostrophe in it to the function then it prints the input string in the first dbms_output but errors out at the select with ORA-01760.
how we can use the quote/apostrophe character here ?
I am loading .csv file into Oracle using sql loader file has strings, and numberics, Strings are surrounded by double quotes(") and field terminated by comma(,)
load data BADFILE '/var/opt/app/bad/filename' DISCARDFILE '/var/opt/app/discard/filename' append into table source_file FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' TRAILING NULLCOLS
Some time String fields may have double quotes in it, at that time it is rejecting the records. how to handle those records to load into table.
SELECT * FROM wc_claims WHERE part_nbr in l_part_nbr ;
I have three tables: table A has - user_id, supplier table B has - supplier, part_nbr table C , wc_claims, has part_nbr and 78 other columns.
what i need to do is when user logs in with his user_id, he should see only that info from table C, corresponding to his supplier, and the part_nbr.
SELECT supplier from table_A WHERE user_id = 'abc' ; supp_abc SELECT distinct part_nbr from table_B WHERE supplier = 'supp_abc' ; partA, partB, partC,........partZZ
SELECT * FROM wc_claims WHERE part_nbr in (partA, partB, partC,........partZZ );
I have created a function :
create or replace Function wcl_partnbr ( p_supp IN varchar2 ) RETURN CLOB IS
[Code].....
so that I can use that in the WHERE clause, because one supplier can have thousands of parts...so it works fine, if there are 200 part numbers for one supplier, but above that.. it doesnt.
EXAM2@orcl> desc search_table; Name Null? Type ----------------------------------------- -------- ---------------------------- ROL NOT NULL VARCHAR2(7) CNM NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) FNM NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) MNM NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) DOB NOT NULL DATE YEAR NOT NULL NUMBER(4) EXAM NOT NULL VARCHAR2(1) MAIN_SUPP NOT NULL VARCHAR2(1)
In a dotnet application user is going to input/select all/any of the above column in where clause.If user has given value for rol column then ref cursor should be :
select * from search_table where rol like <given value> endif and/or
If user has given value for cnm column then ref cursor should be :
select * from search_table where rol like <given value> and/or cnm like <given value> endif
I mean whatever value is being given; it should be part of where clause.For it i am going to :
EXAM2@orcl> CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE rollsearch AS 2 TYPE t_cursor IS REF CURSOR; 3 Procedure rol_cursor(c_rol in varchar2,c_cnm in varchar2,c_fnm in varchar2, 4 c_mnm in varchar2,d_dob in date,n_year in number,c_exam in varchar2,c_main_supp in varchar2, 5 io_cursor IN OUT t_cursor); 6 END rollsearch; 7 /
EXAM2@orcl> CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY rollsearch AS 2 Procedure rol_cursor(c_rol in varchar2,c_cnm in varchar2,c_fnm in varchar2, 3 c_mnm in varchar2,d_dob in date,n_year in number,c_exam in varchar2,c_main_supp in varchar2, 4 io_cursor IN OUT t_cursor) 5 IS 6 v_cursor t_cursor; 7 sql varchar2(1000); 8 BEGIN 9
What should i write further; so that i may get ref cursor as whereed clause for given value. So that i may populate my datagrid view for that web form.
Scenario1 FOR i in (Select .................... from table1 Where id in(select id from Sample_table where status='Submit')) Loop . . . End loop;
Scenario2 FOR i in (Select .................... from table1 Where id in(select id from Sample_table where status='Saved'))
Loop . . .
End loop;
Scenario3 FOR i in (Select .................... from table1 Where id in(select id from Sample_table where status='Inprogress')) Loop . . . End loop;Query is same here but only chage is where clause
Total length of this query is exceeding varchar2 length. so i cant use variable to hold this query and append where clause dynamically.
Do we have any other method to change where clause dynamically?
I have been testing some functionalist, I have been trying to get the updated dept no values into an array and then print the count. But i am getting the following error.
I have implemented, the whole example is to know about 'dynamic sql returning clause into collection'

I have data like this:

When I execute the query it always gives me the error "literal does not match format string".
I have a problem with Between clause used in where statement to compare two string variable.
Query is like this,
select item_code, item_deacrption from itm_master, invoce_det where im_code = item_code AND invd_item_number BETWEEN (:startNum) AND (:endNum)
Here invd_item_number is a DB field and is of type varchar2(41), and (:startNum),(:endNum) are of same type.
now invd_item_number has one value '001003002001' if we give :startNum = '001003001002' and :endNum = '001003004006'
:startNum and :endNum is composed of separate field values (ie, 1st 3 character shows color code, next 3 for catagory, next 3 for size etc). These codes are entered separately and are combined at run time.
it is still fetching the invd_item_number with value '001003002001'. (the last set of character(type code) in the :startNum is greater than invd_item_number's type code value. But it is smaller than the previous code (size code), that's why it is fetching).
But how can i get around this as i don't need that value to be fetched.
I have a dynamic query stored in a function that returns a customized SQL statement depending on the environment it is running in. I would like to create a Materialized View that uses this dynamic query.
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
procedure SSO (SSOID in varchar2 default null, Name in varchar2 default null, Campus in varchar2 default null, Department in varchar2 default null,

Below is the block which i am trying to test in scott schema. I dont want to substute IN clause values directly. So i have written cursor and have added in separate variable separeated by comma.But its not working.

I have the where cluase as below , I would like to know how does oracle decides which one to execute first,
WHERE S.PERSPECTIVE='S'and s.shipment_gid=sb.shipment_gid AND SB.BILL_GID=CBIL.INVOICE_GIDand inv.invoice_gid=cbil.invoice_gid AND S.SOURCE_LOCATION_GID=LC.LOCATION_GID and l.location_gid=lc.location_gid AND TRUNC(cbil.insert_date)=TRUNC(tc.tesco_cal_date)AND(lc.location_gid='N' OR lc.corporation_gid='TESCO.10719')AND s.source_location_gid=lc.location_gid AND tc.tesco_year='2013' AND tc.tesco_period=6AND tc.tesco_week_number=23
After the Data is loaded, we see data look like the above.
(1) Always COL3 column name have data value as 'Gen1' which is the indication for us from where data starts. But Gen1, Gen2, Gen3 etc... is dynamic. ie. This month we get gen1 and gen2 columns followed by null value in a column. Next month we get gen1,2,3,4 followed by null column. (2) Null Column indicate us that there is a break in the column. (3) Then next we need to look for next group of data (Monthly) and then insert into the same table again with different sheet_name column. (4) Next for Quater and then YTD. None of the column Values are fixed and its all dynamic.
If you load the below data, you will come to know what i am looking for. I tried using UNPIVOT. But couldnt able to achieve it. Is there an option to do it in sigle query? or Do I need to go for Stored Procedure?
Insert into TST_TBL (JOB_DETAIL_ID, SHEET_NAME, COL1, COL2, COL3, COL4) Values (100, 'Wire_1', 'Gen1', 'Gen2', 'Gen3', 'Gen4'); Insert into TST_TBL
I have a query regarding nested tables while exporting. Are we not allowed to use Query clause during the export of nested table?
I am getting the error: "EXP-00053: unable to execute QUERY on table NT_LP_COREBAL_MAINT because the table has inner nested tables Export terminated successfully with warnings."
The exp command we are using is: exp XXXX/XXXX@XXXX file=test1.dmp log=test1.log tables=nt_lp_corebal_maint query='where domain_id=10110307'.
I'm using pivot query feature of oracle 11g and came across a strange situation where i need to pass a "select statement" in a "in clause" of pivot query.
I have tried with pivot xml but it not giving desired output in sql*plus session.It is giving unreadable output.
select * from (select uin,testing_id,pfa_result from test1) pivot xml (max(pfa_result) as result for (testing_id) in (select distinct testing_id from test1));
[code]....
Here actually i want to use "select distinct id from test1" instead of "in (11,12,13,14,15)". Because i don't know how many id's will be there and of which values. e.g. 11 or 21 or 25.
Is it possible to define a cursor using dynamic sql. Reason being is, I want to fetch data from 4 diffrent tables but dont want 4 diffrent cursors for this purpose.
I have a procedure that takes an in parameter . Cursor is declared in this procedure. Again is there a way to use dynamic sql so that this cursor declared in procedure uses all 4 table one at a time i.e cursor c1 is select * from table_name(I want this table name to be updated every time with new table name).
I'm trying to replace the variable value v_tblname in dynamic SQL. But not able to escape the single quotes character.
DECLARE v_sqlcols VARCHAR2(2000); v_sqlcols1 VARCHAR2(2000); v_tblname VARCHAR2(50) := 'DEPT'; BEGIN v_sqlcols := q'[SELECT LISTAGG(COL,',' ||CHR(10)) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY COL) FROM (
i have writen it in static form by using instr,substr.But i m having difficulty in making it dynamic by using select statement.I have to make it for retrieving data from database.
small piece of PL SQL code. how to make this query.Requirement is that a concurrent program is run with parameters and one of them i_num_org_id is non mandatory so it can come as NULL...Now in an existing code which i have to change, it uses a query as
SELECT xyz FROM abc_table WHERE <various conditions> AND DECODE(i_num_org_id,NULL,1,table.organization_id) = NVL(i_num_org_id,1);
Now with the above way, if the program is run with some value for i_num_org_id or run as normal query (with NULL as the value) inside a PLSQL procedure/package then it runs fine.This query if you run in Toad etc then too it will work fine but if it is made a dynamic SQL and then used as either EXECUTE IMMEDIATE or opened as a cursor then we get a "Missing expression". I created this small anonymous block to test this and this will go into missing expression error
declare l_num_org_id NUMBER := NULL; l_temp VARCHAR2(100); l_sql varchar2(1000); begin l_sql := 'SELECT '||''''||'abcd'||''''||' [code].....
how i can reformat this query so that even if NULL value comes for i_num_org_id then it is handled.I am aware about CASE but that cannot be used in WHERE clause i guess.
Orcl Ver: 11g R2. I am leveraging the Oracle's pipelined table function.It's working fine for static SQL.
