Is there any alternative of Soundex function. I have two table of city. I want to compare city of both table. Now problem is that one city name is 'HANGO'. In table A City is feed with spelling 'HANGO' and other it is spelled 'HANGU' OR 'HUNGU'. Similarly there are many cases. I used Soundex function but it is not working perfectly.
Is there any other way to compare data by sound.
I have a table with:
1 million rows
average row length 200 bytes
50 columns
and this update statement
UPDATE mytable SET varchar2_4000_column = replace(replace(replace...300 times)
It looks at every row in the table (no WHERE clause) and does these 300 replace operations on this column for each row. Each replace replaces with a null so effectively it is removing strings. Much of the time these strings are not in the column.
This update statement takes 25 minutes and it is 98% CPU and 2% USER_IO time.
I figure that is what is taking all the time since it is a CPU bound statement. if rows in this table are persistent over time then tag rows with a flag to show which ones have already been processed and skip these next time around.
In my project, the below function retrieve output very slowly. Is there any alternative code to replace this function with join
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION f_johnson (i_case_id number,i_seq_num argus_app.case_reference.seq_num%type) RETURN VARCHAR2 AS
c_ref VARCHAR2(32500) := null ;
CURSOR c_refer IS

I have the following table and data , So i want to update this table(word column) with words that has same soundex with one word of them, the word must be that has the long length if the two words has same length So, update by any of them.
drop table t1;
create table t1 (id number(10) ,word varchar2(100));
insert into t1 values(1,'Londn');
insert into t1 values(2,'Egypt');
insert into t1 values(3,'London');
insert into t1 values(4,'Gorgey');
insert into t1 values(5,'Michal');
insert into t1 values(6,'Michel');
insert into t1 values(7,'London');
insert into t1 values(8,'Egpt');
insert into t1 values(9,'Londan');
insert into t1 values(10,'Gorgy');
insert into t1 values(11,'Gorge');the results must be as following
id word
1 London
2 Egypt
3 London
4 Gorey
5 Michal
6 Michal
7 London
8 Egypt
9 London
10 Gorey
11 GoreyNote: this is the results of soundex

I've got to create 2 tables...
Table 1 include members of a certain club with specific criteria
Table 2 needs to include everyone else on the main database, not in the club, but with the same criteria.
So, ultimate goal is to have two tables, similar criteria, T1 = club members and T2 = non-club members
Table 1 ran just fine.
Table 2 is running and running and running. I'm looking for a more efficient way then the syntax below:
create table NON_club_Members nologging as
select distinct hcp.ID, count (distinct hcp.profile_key)
from mrtcustomer.table_1 hcp, Club_Members cm
where hcp.child_birth_dt between '31-OCT-2000' and '30-OCT-2011'
and hcp.ID not in
(select cm.id from Club_Members)
group by hcp.id
I've also tried <> and that also ran and ran and ran.
im used to using PL SQL via oracle. but lately ive been doing a lot of mysql and PHP and i really need to use something similar to DECODE in my queries. or am i forced to do the checks via PHP.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been told that I cannot use Oracle directory objects, external tables and the UTL_FILE package in my production environment for security reasons.
In this scenario what are the alternate options available in Oracle to write a file and save it in a specific location in the server. One of my requirement is to process a file and write the results of processing in a output file in the application server which in turn will be accessed by the online application.
For whatever reason, in PHP, DESC statements do not work. They're simply unrecognized and you get an OCI "invalid SQL statement" error. It may be some sort of security feature. I've also had the same result with the SQL scratchpad in the Java EM, but not in SQL Plus. Is there an alternative method for getting details on a table that I can use that also doesn't require being logged in as a SYSDBA?

Many moons ago, at a previous employer, I had access to the SQL Monitor tool that came with TOAD. I could really use an alternative to this now, as we don't have TOAD here, and it would need to be free. I'm getting a problem with a forms update failing, and I really need to see what's actually being submitted to the database by the form. We're still stuck on Forms 6 by the way

I'm using apex 4.1 and create a page with Interactive report with one default primary report and several default alternative report. when i selected one alternative report, how do i know which one is i picked up? it looks obvious to the user but my point is when the user switches to another page, or there are something should change based on the selected report, i want the user see the new page with-in the context of what have selected for that IR report. for example, i have a "summary" report based on year, so the alternative report will be year-2011, year-2012, etc, when user selected this year, 2012, on the same IR page, there is another report based on year 2012, when user selected 2011, that report should show 2011 report.

It returns two columns: class and the total number of values in that class.
In some cases, there might not be any values under a certain class, so the query won't return anything.
In such a case I want the query to return 0. So what I want to see is:

I am creating an stored function which has to do some inserts in the meanwhile, and return after all the work has done, an UDT (2 or 3 columns of NUMBER datatype).
With this scenario I have an problem. The DML operations are not supported by and "SELECT * FROM Table(MyProc(args))". I have to use this "SELECT * FROM Table(MyProc(args))" because I need to pass the stored function results directly to an dataset.
Using a Stored Procedure it gives no errors, but the arguments must be passed like OUT params, and it is not what I want.
My question is:
Is there any other way to get a result (UDT) of an Stored Function (that makes Inserts) into a DataSet?
I've been tasked to parse tags from a string that look like the following:
{Date + XXX}
where XXX represents a numeric value. I have to replace this, including the brace characters with
SYSDATE + XXX
which will ultimately calculate SYSDATE plus the number of days suggested by XXX. The problem is that I am trying to use regexp_replace to achieve this goal but since XXX is completely arbitrary, I cannot search for it as a fixed value. So, ultimately, I would like to use a regular expression that ignores the numeric part of my search and only replaces the starting brace, the "Date + " part and the ending brace, leaving the numeric portion intact. I was trying to do something like the following
myString := regexp_replace(myString, '{(Date + [^[::digit:]]{1,})}', to_char(SYSDATE, 'FMMONTH DD, YYYY'));
in hopes of making it ignore the numeric part but it, instead, treats occurrences as a non match. Alternatively, the call below
myString := regexp_replace(myString, '{(Date + [[:digit:]{1,})}', to_char(SYSDATE, 'FMMONTH DD, YYYY'));
matches correctly but replaces the numeric portion as well, so I'm left with just today's date instead of the calculated future date...
