Wanted to sort in a way that column1 will be same order and the second column will order first with ARCT-XXXXX and then reset of the column2. It should look like this
insert into x values('A-1'); insert into x values('B-1'); insert into x values('B-2'); insert into x values('B-3'); insert into x values('1'); insert into x values('A-2'); insert into x values('2'); insert into x values('3'); insert into x values('A-4'); insert into x values('B-4'); insert into x values('C-4'); insert into x values('D-4');
i need a function which checks if v_rand carrying a value is alphanumeric if nt this value of 6 alpha numeric characters must be generated again... here is the actual fn.
Function alphanumeric Return varchar2 is v_rand varchar2(10) := 0; Begin [code]......
Is there a function or a process to generate and maintain an alphanumeric sequence?
I need to be able to sequentially generate both a 3 and 5 byte case sensitive alphanumeric primary key that uses A-Za-z0-9 characters intermittently of which the 5 byte MAY be a subset of the 3 byte. e.g. the key can be 00000 or a3BD7.
so I need to be able to generate a new 5 char using 3 char base and if that value is not available, generate a unique 5 char value and allocate the substr(1,3) of that value backwards.
Ex1: unique customer location comes in - not a preexisting customer name (same name,different location address doesn't exist) --> select nextval.[5char] into v_long_c to insert into customer_loc table, and substr (v_long_c, 1, 3) for customer name table.
EX 2: unique customer location comes in. customer name exists in customer table with 3char val A39, but that location doesn't exist in customer_location table (5chars are location specific).
I need to take the A39 and generate new 5char for that unique location using that prefix (A39) if possible.
However, a number of a39-- already exist, though not all assigned to the same customer name (we're trying to keep them grouped together but that might not be logically feasible)
How do I select next a39||[2char] for that unique location - and if that value is not available (all 62*62 possibilities have been used for A39--), select nextval.[5charseq] into long_key.
I suspect someone out there knows the functions I can use to create this or has written a package to do just this; I suspect with enough time I could do it, but I don't currently have the time or knowledge to develop it within these deadlines. I thought it would be easier.
My short-sighted solution was to create a static table of all iterations of A-z0-9 5 char values, select one, mark it used and move on. Unfortunately 62^5 is a substantial number (913+million records) and that table took a LOT of space, causing my development server to groan and crack miserably. indexing on it takes a lot of space too (and trying to build multiple indexes exceeded database size). But without an index on the 3char field, selecting an available 5 code from it based on the customer_3char prefix took five minutes - much longer than the fraction of a second I need.
I have a column COL1 in table TAB1 which is varchar2. I want select only rows which has number and not alphanumeric value? I don't want to use regexp for this since
To built the Pl/SQL function or SQL query to validate the given string for alphanumeric character.
I would pass the string of size 10 character, we need to validate first 5 character as alphabet, next 4 character as numeric and last 1 character as alphabet.
I will pass the each row value to the function, it need to return "T" or "F" based on the condition,first 5 character as alphabet, next 4 character as numeric and last 1 character as alphabet.
Here is the DML and DDL.
[code]
create table abc ( classid varchar(10));
insert into abc values ("abcde1234f"); insert into abc values ("abcde12345"); insert into abc values ("ab1de1234f"); insert into abc values ("abcde1234f"); insert into abc values ("abcd21234f");
[code]
Output:
Input : abcde1234f Output : T Input : abcde12345 Output : F Input : ab1de1234f Output : F Input : abcde1234f Output : T Input : abcd21234f Output : F
I'm a newbie to PL/SQL. I had a quick query about trapping exceptions.
I have a sample table called my_emp, which contains last name, salary, etc. I have written the following code that takes in an employee salary and if the salary exists it displays the last name and corresponding salary. If two or more rows are returned, the exception handles it. Likewise if there are no records with that salary, the exception takes care of it.
I was trying to input an alphanumeric input, such as 1bbb as the salary and of course ORA-06502 error pops up in the sql command line. I now want to trap this using an exception but whatever I try I still get the ORA-06502 in the calling environment rather than getting the 'Not a number' or 'Some other error occured' message. why the WHEN VALUE_ERROR or the WHEN OTHERS exceptions are not trapping the error?
DECLARE v_sal NUMBER (12) := '&Enter_salary'; v_last_name VARCHAR2(10); BEGIN SELECT last_name
I have created a form that have a button to check the character in the textbox is alphanumeric and symbol. Here attached the code, that i tried from other post.
SQL> SQL> SELECT DECODE(act.statement_flag, NULL, 'Total',act.statement_flag) "Monthly Statement?", 2 COUNT(account_id) "Count", 3 ROUND(((COUNT(account_id)/ (SELECT COUNT(account_id) FROM accounts WHERE account_status_id = consts$.acct_sts_active))* 100),2) || '%' "Percent of Active Accounts" 4 FROM accounts act 5 WHERE act.account_status_id = consts$.ACCT_STS_active 6 GROUP BY ROLLUP(act.statement_flag) SQL> /
Monthly Statement? Count Percent of Active Accounts ------------------ ---------- ----------------------------------------- N 1892 98.08% Y 37 1.92% Total 1929 100%
I want the output to be in the following fashion:
Monthly Statement? Count Percent of Active Accounts ------------------ ---------- ----------------------------------------- Y 37 1.92% N 1892 98.08% Total 1929
And I would also like to know is there another way to find the Percent of Active accounts in the query.
The db field is a string-type field that hold strings such as:
'1234' '753' 'textstring' '345'
Obviously, if you sort it, it'll be stored as a string such as: '1234' '345' '753' 'textstring'
My client wants it so the numbers sort as integers, followed by string-like strings (sorted alphabetically), so it's like. '345' '753' '1234' 'textstring'
Is there a quick and dirty SQL-only way to doing this in Oracle?
Is it possible to sort records based on hierarchy in such a way that records sorts in sequence and records of same level comes in the last (in sorting order)
I'm trying to sort a collection in a nested table in PL/SQL so these value can be used later for a display and for export to Excel. The sort is failing.
-- PLS-00642: local collection not allowed in SQL statements
-- PL/SQl: ORA-00902: invalid datatype
The error message are also noted below in the code on the line that fails.
A quick overview of this code- Using a nested table MyNestedTable the values from several select queries are combined into MyRecordsetZero using CURSOR, and MULTISET UNION. I'm trying to either sort MyRecordsetZero or populate MyRecordsetSorted with the sorted values for futher use.
IMPORTANT: The code is running in an enviroment that does not have permission to create.
I have three SQLS which I am running using "Union"
e.g
select col1,count(*) from table where type ='parts' group by col1 union select col1,count(*) from table where type ='consumables' group by col1 union select 'Total',count(*) from table group by 'Total'
I want to force the total column to be the last row of the select and the parts column to be the first row always. I did try something like prefixing the col1 with an alphabet. But that shows up in the output also. Was looking for a better way!
I have a Group report based on one group.For eg..there is machine (Group) and it has detail records .The problem is there are certain specific machine on which i want sorting to be done the rest will be not sorted.
machine WX Details not be sorted machine sh4 Details to be sorted machine sh5 Details to be sorted machine AN1 Details not to be sorted
Jow can i sort field data getting from formula column. The filed that i want to sort have source of that formula column. When i use order by clause with :abc ---(formula column) then it doesn't not work.
I have a table in which I extract the year and the month and both in combination (from a date type). This is needed to summarize for example the year in a chart.
I need the combination of month and year because people could do a query which switches through years. For expample: From 02.2012 to 03.2013.My problem is I dont know how to tell anychart to sort the dates. I have already tried:
to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY')) as Year, to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY'))||to_number(to_char(testdate,'MM')) as MonthyearApex now sorts:
now I have requirement to upgarde it this existing RAC setup to 10.2.0.4.
options for me the steps or sequence I need to follow in upgrade path? like first needs to upgarde crs,then fro ASM and lastly for DB something like this.
