PL/SQL :: Searching String In A Table
Sep 9, 2013
I am using Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production.
I have a situation where I need to find the number of occurrences of a string that is present in a table having comma separated values. To explain with an example:
create table test_data ( textfield varchar2(100));
insert into test_data values('DM,HM');
insert into test_data values('EM');
insert into test_data values('AM,CA,CD,FM,ST');
insert into test_data values('LS');
insert into test_data values('TQ,SP,AM,FM,ST,CA,CD');
insert into test_data values('TQ,SP,AM,FM,ST,CA,CD,LS');
insert into test_data values('DM,HM,LS');
The data in the table test_data looks like DM,HMEMAM,CA,CD,FM,STLSTQ,SP,AM,FM,ST,CA,CDTQ,SP,AM,FM,ST,CA,CD,LSDM,HM,LS Now I need to search"LS" in the table test_data. Basically, I need to find if "LS" is present at least once in any of the rows or not. I want to avoid looping here.

I've tried to write the procedure for search the string from whole database. If user give the string as an input the output will be tablename and column in which the string contained in the table,But it's showing an error .
CREATE OR REPLACE procedure sample.pr_search_table (p_search varchar )
is
type tb_type is table of varchar(30);
tb_table tb_type:= tb_type();
tb_column tb_type := tb_type();
v_temp varchar(30);

i have three tables ot_cut_head,ot_cut_det and om_mc_master based on which fourth table ot_cut_opr and fifth table ot_cut_mc must get populated , Conditions are as follows
first one is based on job_no in ot_cut_head the selection criteria will be filtered,if the job number is like '%M' then type MISC will be chosen ,if job number is '%G' then GRAT TYPE will be picked from om_mc_master (Machine Master) and operations and machines based on this will be filtered.
Second all the cd_ps_desc will be taken from ot_cut_det and will be compared with om_mc_master to get their corresponding operation codes and machine codes , there can be 2 operations or 1 operation.
Finally if the match is found record will be inserted into ot_cut_opr and ot_cut_mc ,based on the criterias and what i want is the search criteria to be more flexible and if there are 2 operations 2 rows will be inserted and if one opeation is defined in om_mc_master ,then only one record will be inserted.
We have to make sure that if based on operation number stage will be populated ,if its first operation then stage will be 1 and if its second operation the stage will be 2.like previous operation also depends on them , the second operation will have the previous operation as first operation and so on.
CREATE TABLE om_mc_master ( mc_type VARCHAR2(12),mc_prof VARCHAR2(30),mc_prep_cd1 VARCHAR2(30),mc_mach_cd1 VARCHAR2
(30),mc_prep_cd2 VARCHAR2(30),mc_mach_cd2 VARCHAR2(30));
INSERT INTO OM_MC_MASTER VALUES ('MISC','TEE SCH','IR','HO','RE','HO');
insert into om_mc_master values('MISC','Vertical Brace','R','HM','I','HO');
insert into om_mc_master values('MISC','Pipe','IR','HO',NULL,NULL);
INSERT INTO OM_MC_MASTER VALUES ('GRAT','PL','RE','HO',NULL,NULL);
SQL> SELECT * FROM OM_MC_MASTER;

I need to check if a small collection contains a specific value. I know I can use the .exist method to let me know if the nth element exists. But is there a similar syntax for checking if an actual value exists?
So the below collection has 6 values (300,301,310,320,400,410) after the cursor values are fetched. I want to use something similar to the below exists syntax in order to search the collection for a value (rather than position) within an IF statement.
The below code shows the kind of thing I want to do. Currently, unless my test value (310) is in the range 1 to 6 the test will always return FALSE. But is there a similar syntax for testing against the value?
The example I have given is a simplification of what I need. In reality there will be more than one test value... returned by another cursor.
DECLARE
CURSOR c_type_id_usg
IS
[Code]....
-- get the list of sms type id usg values
OPEN c_type_id_usg;
FETCH c_type_id_usg bulk collect into l_type_ids;
CLOSE c_type_id_usg;
-- the above returns value 300,301,310,320,400,410
IF l_type_ids.exists(310)
then
dbms_output.put_line('I have found an entry ');
else
dbms_output.put_line('I have NOT found an entry ' );
end if;
END;

I needed to search for some specific text in the DDL of each of the views in a particular schema. The text column of the user_views is LONG, and I looked at some old Tom's threads for converting long2clob, but found these processes to be really cumbersome, so I just opted to use DBMS_METADATA.GET_DDL instead even if it is a little slow.
One area I do not have a lot of experience with is searching clob fields. I tried this but not sure what would be the appropriate function to use for something like this:
SELECT *
FROM
(
[Code]....
WHERE contains(object_text, 'WHERE t.policy NOT LIKE') > 0; -- Show the names of all views that contain the matching text

My application runs a batch procedure weekly once for searching 'A_Text' from a column in Table1 in a clob column in Table2 and inserts accordingly into another Table3.
code snippet is like this -
---
CURSOR cr_sn
IS
SELECT serial_number
[Code]....
TABLE1 will have at least 1.1 Million rows but not significantly more than this.
This procedure takes 24+ hours to complete. I tried -
1. putting parallel hint ( INSERT /*+ PARALLEL*/INTO Table3)
2. partitioning TABLE2 based on last_update_date and putting a where clause in the above query last_update_date ( last_update_date between date1 and date2)

I have created searching tool using oracle forms 6i. while searching the cursor move from text field (A) to other block query the data according to the field (A) and come back again to field (A). Everything is working fine but the problem is, when the cursor move back to the field (A) the existing text is highlighted and when user right something in it. It's overwriting the existing text.
I want when the cursor moving bank to the field (A) the text should not be highlighted and when the user writes something that will be added to the existing text.

I am trying to search a word which starts with 'FRA' in any columns and any tables.
I am unable to find what is generating a join datasets in the webservice from teh database as it is not apparent within the 100 tables.
I ahve looked into
Re: How to search in all rows and all columns?
Re: SQL Search Query?
but none of these queries is working out for me as I am a user with no tables on its own but rather a user quering other tables.I think its a tweak on which dat a dictionary I can view
select distinct substr (table_name, 1, 14) "Table",
substr (t.column_value.getstringval (), 1, 50) "Column/Value"
from all_cons_columns,
table
(xmlsequence
(dbms_xmlgen.getxmltype ('select ' || column_name
|| ' from ' || table_name
|| ' where upper('
|| column_name
|| ') like upper(''%' || 'fra'
|| '%'')'
).extract ('ROWSET/ROW/*')
)
) t
order by "Table";
running teh above query got me thsi error:
ORA-19202: Error occurred in XML processing
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_XMLGEN", line 288

I have this error (and solution):
ORA-02085: database link string connects to string
Cause: a database link connected to a database with a different name. The connection is rejected.
Action: create a database link with the same name as the database it connects to, or set global_names=false.
Where should I set global_names=false ?

I'm facing some problem even after using INSTR function in Oracle.The problem is I have written the logic in the PL/SQL block which appends all the values fetched in a loop on the basis of whether the string is present or not.
For ex:
The first value fetched from the select query first is ABCDEFG which gets appended to a variable
The next value fetched is AB even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The next value fetched is BCDEF even this has to be appended to the variable since this exactly doesn't match with ABCDEFG.
The third Value fetched is ABCDEFG this will not get appended presently according to the logic which is correct.
writing that piece of code to append the value fetched which doesn't exactly match with the existing string
