I'd like to concatenate my 3 columns into one. I have this text item(NAME) and i want my columns lname, fname and mname to be bound into name text item.
this is so far my code to do the concat:
SELECT lname
INTO :ADVISEMENT.name
FROM students
WHERE :ADVISEMENT.name = lname || ',' || fname || ',' || mname;
but it didn't appear at all.
I have a table which I will call 'fruit basket' which contains the following data:
basket_ref, fruit, fruit_serial
1, apple, 1
1, banana, 2
1, pear, 3
2, apple, 1
2, lemon, 2
What I want to produce is a table in the following format
basket_ref, all_fruit
1, apple banana pear
2, apple lemon
There could theoretically be any amount of fruit in a given basket, so I will need to set up some kind of loop in order to read each record from the original table. I am not sure how it would be best to do this.
I have the following info in a table:
LEVELPARENTPOSCHILD
1100571010055
1100572010053
2100552010056
2100551010054
The output that I need is:
LEVELPARENTPOSCHILD
1100571010055
21005510.1010054
21005510.2010056
1100572010053
If there are even more levels, I also need those childs to be shown right below their parent and with POS as 10.20.10 )(for the first item below POS 10.20.
I am trying to replace the string_name in the following execute immediate statement with a concatenated
string_||v_variable.
execute immediate
'select
table_name
from
user_tables
where table_name = :a'
into v_table
using 'string_name';
I tried different declaration and concatenations but nothing worked so far.
This is a simple question, but I cannot seem to find a solution. Here's the basic query:
select distinct accountno, parcelno, streetno||' '|| predirection ||' '|| streetname||' '|| streettype||' '|| postdirection||' '|| unitname||', '|| propertycity
from tblacctpropertyaddress ....
What I want to do is add is this logic: If Predirection is null, then no space between streetno & streetname. Same for postdirection and unitname. (for example, if both postdirection and unitname are null, there are no spaces between streettype and the comma before propertycity)
Also, when unitname is not null, I want to add the string "Unit " prior to the returned value in unitname.

I have three database fields on my form , field_1 , field_2 and field_3 , user will enter the data in field_1 , and sometime he may not enter in field_2 ,
I want to bring the value of field_1 as it is into field_3 if he does not enter anything in field_2, if he enters the data in field_2 , then field_1 will get concatenated with field_2 and gets copied into field_3.Is there a way to do this automatically at form level using a trigger when-validate-item.In short this should be done after user presses the enter key on field_2.

I created a sample application in java which concatenates three strings and displays the result in a final string.
Check the -
public class conCat

This is a Sample Application
And the three strings are concatenated to the final string "Message" only. How to concatenate them vertically? The required output is :

I want to create a report by using one field and one text as columns name in layout but display the all the columns. I mention the 5 column names in query.how can I write function in summary column.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am running a fairly busy Oracle 10gR2 DB, one of the tables has about 120 columns and this table receives on average 1500 insertions per second. The table is partitioned and the partitioning is based on the most important of the two timestamp columns. There are two timestamps, they hold different times.
Out of these 120 columns, about 15 need to be indexed. Out of the 15 two of them are timestamp, at least one of these two timestamp columns is always in the where clause the queries.
Now the challenge is, the queries we run can have any combination of the 13 other columns + one timestamp. In reality the queries never have more than 7 or 8 columns in the where clause but even if we had only 4 columns in the where clause we would still have the same problem.
So if I create one concatenated index for all these columns it will not be very efficient because after the 4th or 5th column the sorting would no longer be very useful and I believe the optimiser would simply not use the rest of the index. So queries that use the leading columns of the index in sequence work well, but if I need to query the 10th column the I have performance issues.
Now, if I create multiple single column indexes oracle will have to work a lot harder to maintain all these indexes and it will create performance issues (I have tried that). Besides, if I have multiple single column indexes the optimiser will do nested loops twice or three times and will hit only the first few columns of the where clause so I think it will kind of be the same as the long concatenated index.
What I am trying to do is exactly what the Bitmap index would do, it would be very good if I could use the AND condition that a Bitmap index uses. This way I could have N number of single column indexes which the optimiser could pick from and serve the query with exactly the ones it needs. But unfortunately using the Bitmap index here is not an option given the large amount of inserts that I get on this table.
I have been looking for alternatives, I have considered creating multiple shorter concatenated indexes but this still would not address the issue since many queries would still not be served properly and therefore would take a very long time to complete.
What I had in mind would be some sort of multidimensional index, I am not even sure if such thing exists. But essentially it would be some sort of index that could serve a query efficiently regardless of the fact that the where clause has the 1st, 3rd and last columns of the index.
So considering how widely used Oracle is and how many super large databases there are out there, this problem must be common.
I have a two question.
Question 1:How to select all columns from table except those columns which i type in query
Question 2:How to select all columns from table where all columns are not null without type each column name which is in empty data
I have 8 columns. Some of them might be null.I want to display all 8 columns in my result. Not null columns will be first and null at the end.Here is a sample data :
Employee table :
Employee_id Emp_fname emp_lname emp_mname dept salary emp_height emp_weight
1 aaa ddd d1 100 6 180
2 bbb ccc 120 169
3 dfe d2 5.9 223
The expected result is :
result1 result2 result3 result4 result5 result6 result7 result8
1 aaa ddd d1 100 6 180
2 bbb ccc 120 169
3 dfe d2 5.9 223

My database has three tables: members (with member name, member number and club number), clubs (with club name and club number) and matches (with win member number, lose member number and score).
I have a query which displays total number of matches won by a club, and number of matches lost by a club:
Quote: select c.clubname,
(select count (*) from members wm, matches w where wm.memberno = w.winmember and wm.clubno = c.clubno) WINS,
(select count (*) from members lm, matches l where lm.memberno = l.losemember and lm.clubno = c.clubno) LOSSES
from clubs c
order by WINS desc;
How can I modify this to add the WINS and LOSSES columns together in a new column? I have modified the query as such:
select c.clubname,
(select count (*) from members wm, matches w where wm.memberno = w.winmember and wm.clubno = c.clubno) WINS,
(select count (*) from members lm, matches l where lm.memberno = l.losemember and lm.clubno = c.clubno) LOSSES,
(select count (*) from members wm, matches w where wm.memberno = w.winmember and wm.clubno = c.clubno) +
(select count (*) from members lm, matches l where lm.memberno = l.losemember and lm.clubno = c.clubno) PLAYED,
from clubs c
order by WINS desc;
I wanted to know the consequences of adding a DEFAULT value to an existing column in a table.I understand that when you add a DEFAULT value to a column which is Nullable, Oracle updates all the null values for the column to the DEFAULT value, generating a lot of undo/redo data.
Is adding a DEFAULT value to a NOT NULL column a problem? As the column is NOT NULL, an update would not be done, so no undo/redo data will be generated.But will this cause a whole table scan? Is this advisable?

I have problem with query ( i'll only use DUAL table for example):
SELECT T.DUMMY P1,
T.DUMMY P2,
T.DUMMY C1,
T.DUMMY C2,
T.DUMMY C3,
T.DUMMY C4,
T.DUMMY C5
FROM DUAL T;
I need to concatenate only columns with name starting with C and add separator between them. Is there any function do concatenate columns using separator like:
SELECT T.DUMMY P1,
T.DUMMY P2,
DBMS_SOMETHING.SOME_FUNCTION(',', C1,C2,C3,C4,C5)
FROM DUAL T;
Or I must do like this:
SELECT T.DUMMY P1,
T.DUMMY P2,
C1 || ',' || C2 || ',' || C3 || ',' || C4 || ',' || C5
FROM DUAL T;
problem is that I have 3.000+ columns in 23 different selects :/
