SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Use (select Statement) Rather Than (in Clause) In Pivot Query

May 27, 2011

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.

SQL> CREATE TABLE TEST1
2 (
3 UIN NUMBER(8) NOT NULL,
4 TESTING_ID NUMBER(4),
5 PFA_RESULT VARCHAR2(30 BYTE)
6 );

[code]....

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.

Substitute Column Name From Variable For Select Query?

Jan 24, 2012

In a select query, I want to substitute the column name from a variable (In turn from an array of column names). Details are given below. I am getting an error as mentioned below.

Create table Test1(IDNumber(10),

Insert Into Test1 values(10,'Thomas','Manager','LA');
Insert Into Test1 values(11,'George','Chairman','LA');

SQL & PL/SQL :: Substitute Column Name From Variable For Select Query

Jan 27, 2012

In a select query, I want to substitute the column name from a variable (In turn from an array of column names). Details are given below. I am getting an error as mentioned below. sort it out?

Create table Test1(ID Number(10),
Name varchar2(100),
Description varchar2(1000),
Site varchar2(100));

[Code]...

I am getting the error:

ORA-00904: "MTEST1"."NAME": invalid identifier

ORA-06512: at line 9

My objective is to get the name 'Thomas' in the variable - MValue1. I don't want to use the statement MValue1:=MTest1.Name because, moving forward, I want to have the column name to be dynamic, taken from an array of column names.

I need to achieve it by giving only one select query to get entire record and fetch the column values one by one, by substituting the column name from an array of column names, instead of writing that many lines of code / querying that may times to the database.

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Select A Column Dynamically Inside A Query

May 1, 2011

I have a problem executing a function.

There are two tables,

1. Table with column names of a second table mapped to certain variables.

ex: Table1
col1, var1
col2, var2
col3, var3
--------
--------

2. Table with the values for columns as given in table 1 ex:

col1, col2, col3, col4, col5,
a , aa , 1 , x1 , p
b , ab , 2 , x2 , q
c , ac , 3 , x3 , r

I have to select values from table2.col1 do some processing and calculate values and store it in a table then do the same thing with col2 and so. This needs to be done for all the columns that appear in table1.For example in table 1 i have only three columns mentioned thus i have to process col1, col2 and col3 from table2. col4 and col5 will not be processed since they do not appear in the first table.

The problem is i have hundred columns in table 2 and the user can add up to hundred columns in table 1 as and when it is required.

I have created a cursor to first select column name from table 1 where variable is not null.For each value in cursor i put it in a local variable.

Second step is to select values from table2 where instead of column name i am using the local variable.But the problem is instead of choosing values from col1 the query returns the value as col1 (the value of local variable)

SQL & PL/SQL :: Select Statement Is Blocking A Delete Statement

Jan 11, 2012

I am using JDBC to run a few queries from my Java program (multi-threaded one).I am facing an issue where a select statement is blocking a delete statement. From the java code point of view, there are 2 different threads accessing the same tables (whith different DB connection objects).

When the block occurs (which i was able to find out from the java thread dump that there is a lock on oracle), the below is the output:

SQL> SELECT TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
2 || ' User '||s1.username || '@' || s1.machine
3 || ' ( SID= ' || s1.sid || ' ) with the statement: ' || sqlt2.sql_text
||' is blocking the SQL statement on '|| s2.username || '@'
4 5 || s2.machine || ' ( SID=' || s2.sid || ' ) blocked SQL -> '
6 ||sqlt1.sql_text AS blocking_status FROM v$lock l1, v$session s1, v$lock l2 ,
7 v$session s2,v$sql sqlt1, v$sql sqlt2
8 WHERE s1.sid =l1.sid
9 AND s2.sid =l2.sid AND sqlt1.sql_id= s2.sql_id
AND sqlt2.sql_id= s1.prev_sql_id AND l1.BLOCK =1
10 AND l2.request > 0 AND l1.id1 = l2.id1 AND l2.id2 = l2.id2;
[code]...

From the above it can be seen that a select statement is blocking a delete. Unless the select is select for Update, it should not block other statements is not it ?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Nvarchar2 Maximum Size

May 11, 2011

I'm having some issues with my NVarchar2 columns that I want to solve

My current NLS_CHARACTERSET is 'AL16UTF16', and therefore I can only create NVarchar2 columns with an maximum extension of 2000 bytes. But I do need a column with 4000 bytes length. How can I create an 4000 NVarchar2 column?

(I do not want to use a CLOB column...only a NVarchar2)

I have written a trigger & procedure to call a webservice from pl/sql procedure. Everything was working fine until I was told to use nchar & nvarchar2 instead of varchar2 as per requirement. Now I am not able to run the procedure and getting errorcode with return response from server.

I didn't changed the width of columns but only datatype. What precautions do I need to take in code while doing this and what could have caused the error only by converting the data type.

select 'CARAT Issue Open' issue_comment, i.issue_id, i.issue_status, i.issue_title, i.ISSUE_summary ,i.issue_description, i.severity,gcrs.Area_name, gcrs.sector_name,

substr(gcrs.stream_name,1,case when instr(gcrs.stream_name,' (')=0 then 100 else instr(gcrs.stream_name,' (')-1 end) ISSUE_DIVISION,

case when gcrs.STREAM_NAME like 'NON-GT%' THEN 'NON-GT' ELSE gcrs.STREAM_NAME END as ISSUE_DIVISION_2

from table(f_carat_issues_as_of('31/MAR/2013')) i inner join v_gcrs_with_stream gcrs on i.segment_id = gcrs.segment_id

where UPPER(ISSUE_STATUS) like '%OPEN%'

Now I want to callte two columns:ISSUE_DIVISION and ISSUE_DIVISION_2

if they are equal in new columns should be value 1 if are not equal should be 0,how can I do it ?

Select Statement Errors

May 5, 2010

I have a question about select statements, as I am new to them and don't know how to work all the commands yet.

I'm making a select statement that is about half right... it is shown below:

select t.warehouse_id,
t.quantity_on_hand,
c.product_name
from pahtest3.inventories t
join pahtest3.product_information c using (product_id)
WHERE warehouse_id in (7);

I need to take this select statement and make it so it shows all the products that don't have any quantities in the warehouse in addition to the ones that are already being shown in that select statement.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Using Alias In Same SELECT Statement

Sep 1, 2011

I have a need to use the Alias name of a column within the same select statement( because I can't have another select statement using the first select as table - BO tool limitation).

Ex:

Select dept_id, agency, sum(quantity) as "sum_qty"
where sum_qty > 500;

Currently oracle won't allow using alias name Sum_qty in the same select statement. Is there a way to use alias within the same select statement?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Variable In Select Statement

Jul 5, 2011

I'm trying to write a simple query so I can do some testing on my application. I am trying to do something like this:

SELECT
Location,
LEVEL,

FROM
S_ORG_EXT

where
Location = 'North America' and LEVEL ='Software'
OR location = 'North America'
and Active = 'N'

in the where statement, I have put in the 'Active' that isn't a column. I want to be able to be able to change that in the select part. But I am not able to do so.

this is what I have tried:
SELECT
Location,
LEVEL,
Active = 'N' --I want to change this in the to N or Y so I can get different results.

FROM
S_ORG_EXT

where
Location = 'North America' and LEVEL ='Software'

SQL & PL/SQL :: Select In Case Statement

Feb 11, 2011

I have the following tables:

create table lookups (code varchar2(20), amount number);

insert into lookups values ('Rent' , 500);
insert into lookups values ('Breakpoint' , 10);

create table products (id number, cost number, year varchar2(4));

insert into products values (1, 1000, '2011');
insert into products values (1, 2000, '2011');
insert into products values (2, 100, '2011');
insert into products values (3, 50, '2011');

commit;

I want to write a query which lists the IDs and the sum(cost), and a Y/N indicator which is set to 'Y' IF sum(cost) > ( (lookups.rent value) * (100 - lookups.breakpoint value))/100

I have written this query:

SELECT id,
sum(cost)cost,
year,
CASE
WHEN cost >
((SELECT amount
[code]....... ORDER BY id;

This returns

ID COST YEAR YN
--------- ---------- ---- -
1 1000 2011 Y
1 2000 2011 Y
2 100 2011 N
3 50 2011 N

The YN is correct, but it needs to sum the amounts. So there should only be one row for id1 = 3000.e.g.

ID COST YEAR YN
--------- ---------- ---- -
1 3000 2011 Y
2 100 2011 N
3 50 2011 N

I am not sure how to do this. Or is there a better way of doing this than using CASE.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Cursor Select Statement?

I have a cursor in a procedure that selects columns from a table on a remote Oracle database using a database link. It all works fine when the table name and database link name is 'hard coded' into the procedure but what I would like to achieve is have the select statement lookup the table name and database link name from a column in another table. See example below

CURSOR c_total_bookings IS
SELECT personnel_id,
surname,
forenames,
birth_date,

What I would like to do is replacecompany_bookings@remote.linkwith a variable that takes its value from another table.
