SQL & PL/SQL :: Create A String With Distinct Values
Aug 11, 2010
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.1.0.6.0 - Production
"CORE 11.1.0.6.0 Production"
I have a cursor, whose sql is returning seven rows with these values:
9
4
4
9
7
9
4
i open cursor and fetch these values into variable as shown
OPEN id_search FOR l_sql_stmt;
LOOP
FETCH id_search INTO l_eve_id;
if l_eve_id != l_eve_id_prev then
l_eve_id_str := l_eve_id_str || ' , ' ||l_eve_id ;
[code].......
but i want only the distinct values in l_eve_id_str , i.e.,
l_eve_id_str := 9,4,7
What this code is doing is creating a string with all the values
l_eve_id_str := 9,4,4,9,7,9,4
How to remove duplicates from this string?

CREATE TABLE TEST_TAB
(
A NUMBER(5),
B VARCHAR2(20)
) ;
INSERT INTO TEST_TAB VALUES ( 1, 'Manoj' ) ;
INSERT INTO TEST_TAB VALUES ( 1, 'Arun' ) ;
INSERT INTO TEST_TAB VALUES ( 1, 'Varun' ) ;
INSERT INTO TEST_TAB VALUES ( 1, 'Suresh' ) ;
[code].....
Query Output :
1Arun,Arun,Manoj,Manoj,Manoj,Suresh,Varun
2Kamlesh,Manoj,Manoj,Manoj,Suresh,Suresh
Expected Output :
1Arun,Manoj,Suresh,Varun
2Kamlesh,Manoj,Suresh
Expectation here is duplicate values should not be repeated.

I have a table with 4 columns. The data is stored in an hierarchical format where L1 being the parent and L4 being the lowest child.
L1 L2 L3 L4
1 11 111 1111
2 21 211 2111
2 22 222 2222
[code]...
So each Level(L1 ..L4) has zero or many child levels which further has more levels.With out using PL/SQL how can we write a Select query to give me a distinct of all children, all the way to the lowest level (L4).Example: give me all the children where L1 = 3.Result: 31, 32, 33, 311, 322, 333, 3111, 3222, 3333Is it possible to write such a query or am I asking too much logic out of a select and should go with PL/SQL.

What is the fastest way to fetch DISTINCT values from partitioned table?
1) DISTINCT/UNIQUE
2) GROUP BY
3) PARTITION BY OVER()
4) MAX(ROWID)
Table Definition
CREATE TABLE STG_SOS_SALES_FACT_STUDY
(
CNTRY_KEY NUMBER,
STUDY_ID NUMBER,
PRD_KEY_YEAR NUMBER,
PRD_KEY_WEEK NUMBER,
DATE_FROM DATE,
[Code]...
-> PARTITION BY RANGE (PRD_KEY_YEAR, PRD_KEY_WEEK)
-> SUBPARTITION BY LIST (CNTRY_KEY)
** Local Partition Indexes
1) CN_SD_CTG_PRD_PRDC_IDX = STG_SOS_SALES_FACT_STUDY (PRD_KEY_YEAR, PRD_KEY_WEEK, CNTRY_KEY, STUDY_ID, CTG_ID, PRDC_KEY)
2) CN_SD_PRD_STR_CTG_IDX = STG_SOS_SALES_FACT_STUDY (PRD_KEY_YEAR, PRD_KEY_WEEK, CNTRY_KEY, STUDY_ID, STR_KEY)#Query:
SELECT DISTINCT PRD_KEY_WEEK, PRD_KEY_YEAR
[Code]...
** Explain Plan:

SELECT STATEMENT ALL_ROWSCost: 6,235 Bytes: 629 Cardinality: 37

I need to write a query in plsql to select records for first 3 distinct values of a single column (below example, ID )and all the rows for next 3 distinct values of the column and so on till the end of count of distinct values of a column.
eg:
ID name age
1 abc 10
1 def 20
2 ghi 10
2 jkl 20
2 mno 60
3 pqr 10
4 rst 10
4 tuv 10
5 vwx 10
6 xyz 10
6 hij 10
7 lmn 10
.
.
.
so on... (till some count)
Result should be
Query 1 should result --->
ID name age
1 abc 10
1 def 20
2 ghi 10
2 jkl 20
2 mno 60
3 pqr 10
query 2 should result -->
4 rst 10
4 tuv 10
5 vwx 10
6 xyz 10

I have data something like this:
Sample DateWITH DATA AS ( SELECT 'AAAXXXX IO BLUEEXPRESS' LIST FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 'BLUEEXPRESS AAAXXXX IO BLUEEXPRESS' FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 'DDDDD BLUEEXPRESS AAAXXXX' FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 'DDDDD DDDDD AAAXXXX' FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 'DDDDD BLUEEXPRESS AAAXXXX NO CARBON' FROM dual UNION ALL SELECT 'NO CARBON
[code]....
The above result depends on the following rules:
- Replace BLUEEXPRESS into BEXPRESS
- Remove the term NO CARBON (See row no 6)
- Reduce all multiple space into single space (see last record).
So far I create separated queries for replacing BLUEEXPRESS into BEXPRESS and replace NOCARBON term but I don't know how to do it in a single shot as well as stuck on scenario to remove multiple spaces and put single space.

Objective: I need to compile a final string by concatinating the unique values from different strings.
Here is the script to create tables and data.
Create table temp_acronyms(id number, acronym varchar2(30);
insert into temp_acronyms values(1, 'ABC');
insert into temp_acronyms values(2, 'DEC//NOFO');
insert into temp_acronyms values(3, 'CBK//FO TO USA');
insert into temp_acronyms values(4, 'DEC//NO ENTRY');
insert into temp_acronyms values(5, 'ABC//NOFO');
COMMIT;
select * from temp_acronyms;
ID ACRONYM
--- --------
1 ABC
2 DEC//NOFO
3 CBK//FO TO USA
4 DEC//NO ENTRY
5 ABC//NOFO
I need to store all the unique strings from the acronyms for id's 1,2, 3, 4 and 5 into a variable. doesn't matter even if it is through database procedure.
my final string should have the values as below
ABC//DEC//NOFO//CBK//FO TO USA//NO ENTRY

I am trying to update the greatest value in a column from a string of other column.
Ex: f the value is shown 10M+16M+25M-DG, then populate 25 only
so for that I had written query as follows:
update ANCHOR set IEL_STRAND_SIZE= greatest(
substr
(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','),
0,
length(REPLACE(REPLACE(REGEXP_REPLACE( F_TYP, '[A-Z]', '' ),'+',','),'-',','))-1))
The output is given as 10,16,25,but not as 25.so how could i write it?Do I need to implement procedure or arrays for it.

I have a table(PSUSEROBJTYPE) with a long field(PTCUSTFORMAT) containing a row value value in the form:
#1|0|0|0|0|#2|1|0|0|1|#3|1|0|0|0|#4|0|0|0|0
Here, I want to update the above field value to a value in the form:
#2|0|0|0|0|#3|1|0|0|1|#4|1|0|0|0|#5|0|0|0|0
This is nothing but finding each occurrence of (#n) in the above string and replacing it by (#n+1). (i.e #1 is replaced by #2,#2 is replaced by #3).

I have a problem with Between clause used in where statement to compare two string variable.
Query is like this,
select item_code, item_deacrption
from itm_master, invoce_det
where im_code = item_code
AND invd_item_number BETWEEN (:startNum) AND (:endNum)
Here invd_item_number is a DB field and is of type varchar2(41), and (:startNum),(:endNum) are of same type.
now invd_item_number has one value '001003002001'
if we give :startNum = '001003001002' and :endNum = '001003004006'
:startNum and :endNum is composed of separate field values (ie, 1st 3 character shows color code, next 3 for catagory, next 3 for size etc). These codes are entered separately and are combined at run time.
it is still fetching the invd_item_number with value '001003002001'. (the last set of character(type code) in the :startNum is greater than invd_item_number's type code value. But it is smaller than the previous code (size code), that's why it is fetching).
But how can i get around this as i don't need that value to be fetched.

Values
(155, 'DATE_TEST');
I want a code something of this sort:
select profilename from PROFILE where user_data like '%DATE_RULE!115%';
Output will be "Test A".Now, this is just a single value from RULES table used to find the data of PROFILE table.I will have to run the query on multiple values of RULES tables to find records containing a string format of sort "DATE_RULE!<rule_no>". How to search on WILD CARDs like these?

We have generated a fancy custom interactive report, in which the columns of string type, but can hold string, numeric or date values. However the type of values are uniform for a particular column. The end users wants to use the numerical values for generating charts, but, being a string column (though the data is numeric), it throws an error and they could not generate the chart. Is there any way to make use of this string column type numerical data for generating chart?
