SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Select Data When It Has Single Quote In Value
Sep 4, 2013
The description field in the item table has the single quote used as the symbol for feet. I have the same issue pulling from a last name field in other tables. (Like O'Connor)
select descrip into v_result
from c_ship_hist
where shipment_dtl_id = :SDID;
exception when others then null;
The error I get is "Missing right quote". How do I code around this issue without having to change the data?

I have an script.sql that receives as a parameter an string.
example:
@C:/myscript.sql "o'connor"
user_account_value varchar2(120) := '&1';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE "Select * from Table where column = :1 " USING user_account_value I am not sure how to deal with string that contains single quotes.
If the parameter were passed as : "o''connor" this will work
If the parameter is pass as: "o'connor" this will not work.
so my question is what options do I have to deal with dynamic queries and single quotes.
I tried replacing replace(myParameter,'''',''''''); but not working well.

create table test_g(x date);
insert into test_g values (to_date('01-NOV-2001','DD-MON-YYYY'));
insert into test_g values (to_date('02-NOV-2011','DD-MON-YYYY'));
insert into test_g values (to_date('03-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY'));
insert into test_g values (to_date('12-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY'));
insert into test_g values (to_date('31-DEC-2012','DD-MON-YYYY'));
[code].....
I wrote below procedure
create or replace procedure p_testq(p_in_date in date) is
v_comp date;
v_strg varchar2(200);
i number:=1;
type t_trc is ref cursor;
trc t_trc;
v_sql varchar2(2000);
-- record to which data goes into
type t_prec is record(x date);
prec t_prec;
-- plsql table to store data
type t_frec is table of t_prec index by binary_integer;
frec t_frec;
-- flow of data, is from v_sql --> plsql record --> plsql table
begin
dbms_output.put_line(' month of paramter '|| P_IN_DATE ||' is '||to_char(P_IN_DATE,'MON'));
select min(x)
into v_comp
from test_g
where x <= P_IN_DATE
[code].....
how do I store v_strg values so that the dates are included in single quotes
begin
p_testq('12-DEC-2012');
end;
v_strg: 06-Nov-2012,09-Nov-2012
I want values to be '06-Nov-2012',''09-Nov-2012'

I have a simple update statement. Sometimes the data in this statement has single quotes in it (like shown below).
Update table1 set account = 'CD'S NOT MINE' WHERE NUMBER = '0027201'
When I run this SQL, I get SQL Error: ORA-01756: quoted string not properly terminated
01756. 00000 - "quoted string not properly terminated"
Is there an escape charecter that I can use?

I have table say Messages. In which there is a column msg_text varchar2(900).My requirement is to fetch the very last character of the msg_text for a single row identified by its msg_code(primary key).
The problem is, whenever msg_text contain second last character as single quote( ' ), it doesn't give me the last character i.e. after the single quote.For example if msg_text is "Congratulations, you opted for 'A'." and if its message_code is 10 then query
SQL> SELECT SUBSTR(msg_text,LENGTH(msg_text),LENGTH(msg_text)) AS LAST_CHAR
FROM messages
WHERE msg_code = 10;
returns nothing.
Whereas if msg_text is "Are you sure to continue?" and if its message_code is 20 then query
SQL> SELECT SUBSTR(msg_text,LENGTH(msg_text),LENGTH(msg_text)) AS LAST_CHAR
FROM messages
WHERE msg_code = 20;
returns character '?'.

Having a select query where the output looks as below, as you can see when there is no record for a particular date(01-JUn-12,03-JUN-12) the count will be zero.
SELECT TRUNC(updated_date) DATE1 , COUNT(1) COUNT FROM Temp_a
WHERE ZU_flag='N' AND circle_id 'NA'
AND TRUNC(updated_date) >=TRUNC(SYSDATE-18) AND TRUNC(updated_date) <=TRUNC(SYSDATE)
GROUP BY TRUNC(updated_date)
ORDER BY TRUNC(updated_date) DESC;
O/p
DATE1 count
10-JUN-12 14208
08-JUN-12 307825
06-JUN-12 138790
05-JUN-12 167562
04-JUN-12 51870
02-JUN-12 130582
01-JUN-12 239806
But i require a query in such a way that when there is no record for a date , the date has to get populated with zero count
Excepted O/P
DATE1 count
10-JUN-12 14208
09-JUN-12 0
08-JUN-12 307825
07-JUN-12 0
06-JUN-12 138790

I have tried with Case conditions and try to fetch that data through Sequence generating Date(not useful). I can do this with Cusror, but i need this to be done through single select query

write a query to get the first row after order by clause using single query alone.Example:I can write following query to select first rowselect * from (selec * from t order by col1) where rownum = 1;But here I should not use inline view to get the result. Because my original requirement needs to use this query in select list and it needs to use a column (of a table from the FROM clause) in the where clause of inline query. Because there is restriction that we can not use the column (of a table from the FROM clause) more than one level of inline query.

I am trying to find the best solution for the following problem
I have a table called HIERARCHY with 3 columns.
col1 col2 col3
------------------------
1
1 2
1 2 3
4 5
6 7 8
I would like to check if the table contains invalid records. Col1 , Col2 and Col3 are seen as hierarchy levels and col1 is the top level.
For instance record 1,2,3 (level3) is valid because it exists record 1,2 (level 2). Moreover 1,2 record (level 2) is valid because it exists record 1 (top level).
However 4,5 and 6,7,8 are not valid as higher levels are not completed.
How can I check in a single SELECT statement if the table contains invalid records? Maybe analitical functions or regular expressions?!

i have a problem in the following query. i need to fetch the rows such that i want to fetch all the records keeping "segment1" column as distinct and sum all of the corresponding "quantities" column.
select prha.segment1 --as requisition_no
,prha.creation_date
,sum(prla.quantity)
,prha.description
[code]...
i tried to use the partition technique. using partition solved the problem apperently. the sum function worked but redundancy in "segment1" column still persists. i used the sum function only to extract the distinct "segment1" column and summing its corresponding "quantity" column (only quantity column differs in the redundant rows...)
the second query was like:
SELECT prha.segment1,
prha.creation_date,
SUM(prla.quantity) OVER(PARTITION BY prha.segment1) AS qty,
prha.DESCRIPTION,
[code]...

which is the better option to use when the quote needs to be concatenated to a varchar2 value i.e.
In order to insert 'test' into a column exactly as yet see I used:
chr(39)||'test'||chr(39)
However, the DBA (OCP) says that is not a good way to do it and should be changed to:
''''||'test'||''''

I have a clients who currently implementing an application that using Oracle 10g in 20 distributed location. Each location will have its own database server and locally managed. I plan to create a Disaster Recovery (DR) Centre for this client in centralised location. I plan to setup 20 Application Server but only one database server with 20 instances. My question, can the Dataguard manage the replication between 20 database (with single instances) and single database (with 20 instances? The reason we design such way is to reduce the license cost of Oracle.

We have to update a single column data in about 10 tables which has child/parent table relations, pk/fk constraints.. The column that we are updating is a part of primary key in half of the tables and part of foreign key in the other half tables.. I'm thinking of disabling all the foreign key constraints in the tables then update the column data then enable the foreign key constraints in these tables.

I am trying to build a data warehouse for Consumer Price Index and so I have downloaded data from the Bureau of Statistics.It is in excel format and since I am working with Oracle Warehouse Builder I have converted it to .csv file so that I can use it as a data source.
Question1: Is it practical to use single .csv file as a source of data for a data warehouse?
Question2: I have 3 dimensions tables and a fact table.The dimensions are one for the Region(as the date is organized in region,states etc),two is the consumer goods and services (as the data is organized in groups of goods and services, services/goods types) and finally time(year and month),
Now how am I going to do the mapping here?Is it possible to do a one to one mapping here as all data required by the dimensions is located in the .csv file.

I am migrating data from DB2 to Oracle. I used DB2 export to extract the data specifying lobsinfile clause. This created all the CLOB data in one file. So a typical record has a column with a reference to the CLOB data. "OUTFILE.001.lob.0.2880/". where OUTFILE.001.lob is the name specified in the export command and 0 is the starting position in the file and 2880 is the length of the first CLOB.
When I try to load this data using sqlldr I'm getting a file not found.Attached is a copy of the control file and output from testing
PS. I cant use the DB2 option LOBSINSEPFILES which creates a separate file for each CLOB column because the table has over 14 million rows....and creating 14 mil files causes OS inode problems...
Attached File(s)
sqlldr.txt ( 2.05K )
Number of downloads: 3
