an alternative to Oracle Cursors.My table has huge amount of data and is taking time in processing. I had thought of using BULK COLLECT but it can only be used to insert, delete or update data and will not allow me to select data.
View 33 RepliesI'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.

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?

View 5 Replies View RelatedIs 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.

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

1)my csv file contain 100 records,i want to load 60 records into one table and reaming into another table with same control file by using sql*loader ?
2)how to load the alternative records into table by using sql*loader
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.
My clients want to print the output of reports of size 25*12 and 15*12 in 11g and I am able to do the printing but the page break required for each page is not coming properly and because of this they cannoy identify which is the 1st and 2nd paper..
But in 6i D2K, there is the Live Previewer through which I can print without any page break issues.
My query is what is the alternative for Live previewer in Oracle Reports 11g so that i can make it right.
I need consultation on an alternative to a query that I wrote and seems very expensive.
I have the following table:
CREATE TABLE TRY_B
(TID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,
INFO1 VARCHAR2(10),
INFO2 VARCHAR2(10),
GROUP_NO NUMBER,
TYPEID NUMBER);
[code]....
My objective is to get the data of group_no that is repeated more than once and which includes exactly one occurrence of typeid = 0.
My current query is:
SELECT * FROM TRY_B
WHERE GROUP_NO IN
(
SELECT GROUP_NO
FROM TRY_B
GROUP BY GROUP_NO
[code]....
which works but takes very long time with the real data as my real table is huge.
Any alternative to filer the Initial using a single REGEXP_REPLACE ?

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.
View 0 Replies View RelatedI have two methods using pro*c to execute a query SQL and read the results. The query is a "select from" a view, this view is a union between two tables. The first method creates a cursor and fetches the results line by line. A second method creates a cursor and fetches the results in parts.
Method 1)
CODEEXEC SQL FETCH Cursor1 INTO ...
Method 2)
CODEEXEC SQL FOR :numLines FETCH Cursor1 USING DESCRIPTOR areaDescSQL;
I had executed this methods in my development enviroment, using Oracle 11g, Suse linux. As I expected, the method 2 spent much less time than the method 1. But, in the "customer enviroment", using another database, Oracle 11g and HP-UX, these methods spent almost the same time.
Is there some Oracle's configuration or parameter's settings that maybe explain that? What configuration can be differente between the two databases? What can I do to improve the time spent?
I'm currently looking for a way to declare a cursor in the 'declare' block using a previously defined variable that got its value from a query. For instance:

cursor employees is
select e.employee_id from employees e where e.company_id = my_company_id;
Any way to do this?

r ref_cur;

TABLE NAME :ABC
(PARTITION BASE TABLE - 84 Partition and each Partition has 500-800 Millions of Records)

CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW LOG ON ABC;

CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW MV_ABC
REFRESH FAST
START WITH SYSDATE
NEXT SYSDATE+20/ (24*60) AS
SELECT * FROM ABC
WHERE TMSTP > SYSDATE-1;
Scenario:Intially data extracted will be "Greater than SYSDATE-1 = 18/08/2009 11:27:39 " - 76 Millions of Records After 20 Min of FAST Refresh, it will add 2500 Records
i)Is query in the MVIEWS (MV_ABC) SYSDATE-1 will be changed on each FAST Refresh, as observation (as per definition) it is incrementing the records to intial extracted data?
ii)As COMPLETE Refresh will be expensive to execute on the partition base table on each refresh.
Is there any alternative way to achieve the Nature of COMPLETE REFRESH in Materialized View?
iii)Is Delete or Conditional Delete option is possible in Materialized View (i.e not a delete from the base table but the delete from MVIEWS)?
iv)What is the machnism for populating the logs for MVIEWS?Is it overhead for the system and better than a Trigger based approach?

So my problem is while executing the different sql statements by passing it to the procedure,how can the procedure would behave dynamically.It must be able to process all the sql statements.
How can we pass multiple parameters to cursors?
Ex: Cursor C_employees(C_empid number, C_cityname varchar2) is select emp_name, office_name from employee where employees where empid = c_empid and city = c_city_name;
I know we can pass one parameter to the cursor but I do not know how to pass multiple parameters.

I am trying to write which will return cursors to front end program.The logic which I got stuck is while exiting the procedure.I am having some cursors in teh procedures which are read by the front end script.I have one condition which when satisfied I have to exit from the procedure.But the constraint I am facing is if I exit at that logic, oracle closes all the cursor and front end script is not able to read teh cursor and hence throws an error.Is there any way to exit the procedure without closing the REF cursors.
