SQL & PL/SQL :: Copy Into Same Table / Recursive Rename Of Duplicates
May 11, 2011
In MS Windows, if I copy a file and paste it into the same folder, I get a copy with the text 'Copy of' in front of the file name. If I paste it again, I get another copy with a different version number.
E.g.
sqlnet.log
Copy of sqlnet.log
Copy (1) of sqlnet.log
Copy (2) of sqlnet.log
I was wondering if I could copy existing rows into a table and do the same thing?
So, for example if I had this table:
create table tst_srch (srch_is varchar(100), user_name varchar(100), srch_name varchar(100));
insert into tst_srch values (1,'USER1','SRCHA');
insert into tst_srch values (2,'USER1','SRCHB');
insert into tst_srch values (3,'USER1','SRCHC');
insert into tst_srch values (4,'USER1','SRCHD');
insert into tst_srch values (5,'USER2','SRCHC');
insert into tst_srch values (6,'USER2','SRCHD');
insert into tst_srch values (7,'USER2','SRCHD_1');
Could I write a procedure like copy_searches('USER1','USER2') that would copy all USER1's searches to USER2 - including renaming any duplicates.
So it would create these new rows:
8,USER2,SRCHA
9,USER2,SRCHB
10,USER2,SRCHC_1
11,USER2,SRCHD_2
I've looked at various insert statements, merge and match statements and exception handling in procedures .

These are the tables I'm working with:
SQL> desc custinfo;
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
CUSTID VARCHAR2(4)
CUSTNAME VARCHAR2(18)
CUSTADR VARCHAR2(12)
CUSTCITY VARCHAR2(10)
CUSTSTATE CHAR(2)
CUSTZIP VARCHAR2(5)
CAPACITY NUMBER(3)
HOUSECODE VARCHAR2(2)
[code]...
I don't understand why the custid is the same for each customer, and why it's selecting every customer and not just those with more than 150 gallons ordered.
For this one use the oil tables that you set up and use a subquery. Select the minimum average fall use from the house table. Then show all customers whose number of gallons delivered times two is greater than the minimum.

i could copy data from tableA to tableB with the scenario below
1) Currently we have no unique key / primary key defined on both of this tables, due to the nature of data, so insert/update will not work
2) We cant truncate/insert as user will be accessing this tables when the copying process takes place, so we dont want to end up having a scenario where the table does not contain data at a certain time
Will materialize view full refresh work in refreshing a table so we could avoid the problem faced in point 1 & 2.

I have two tables namely PERSON and WIFE. I want to make WIFE's data available in PERSON table while keeping entries of WIFE maintained and at the same time adding some the values of PERSON against the data of wife.
PERSON Table
PK NAME ADDRESS IS_MARRIED
1 John ab city Y
2 Varvatos cd town N
3 Smith ef town Y
4 Henry gh city Y
5 Lynda gh city Y
WIFE table
PK PERSON_ID (FK) NAME
1 1 Alice
2 3 Rosy
3 4 Lynda
Now i want to copy data of WIFE table into PERSON table like this PERSON table
PK NAME ADDRESS IS_MARRIED
1 John ab city Y
2 Varvatos cd town N
3 Smith ef town Y
4 Henry gh city Y
5 Lynda gh city Y
6 Alice ab city Y
7 Rosy ef town Y
As in the given example you might have noticed that ADDRESS of wife is same as of her spouse and same goes for IS_MARRIED column. Moreover, the PK is also not duplicated. How to go about this?
Another important factor is Lynda already exits in PERSON table, therefore, i certainly don't want to duplicate her entry.

I must admit my "google skills" have failed me and it is possible that I might be missing something obvious here but allow me to explain.
If I have a table that is populated/accessed by a typical OLTP application such that over time the data in the table may become "fragmented".
I know that is a very controversial term I used but that is not the question here. A simple way to describe the state of the table might be that the table has always been populated with lots of small INSERTs, modified with lots of small UPDATEs and data has been deleted in small DELETEs.
This has meant that the data is neither closely stored in data blocks nor is in any particular order (so there are some empty blocks under HWM).
Now my question is how do I create exact copy of this table and its indexes AS THEY EXIST AT THE MOMENT that includes
1) its data
2) its constraints/indexes etc.
3) its storage parameters
4) data stored in EXACTLY same manner as in original table.
To avoid complications, the table in question is just a normal heap table without any partitioning involved. While
CREATE TABLE AS SELECT (or CREATE TABLE followed by INSERT) will take care of points (1) to (3) above, it will not achieve point (4) above.

Basically we are trying to keep a transactional history, with out having to restore the data. Here is what I have created to date, however it is not executing consistently.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER DATA_COPY BEFORE
INSERT
OR DELETE
OR UPDATE ON "DB1"."TABLE_1"
