I have one query regarding how to retrieve the CLOB data.
The requirement is something that in the select statement there are around 20+ columns which i need to retrieve from around 5 tables after joining.
Since the result set after joining also will get duplicate values i need to use distinct keyword to filter the resultset. But in the 20+ columns there are 2 CLOB data columns which i need to retrieve.
Whenever i use DISTINCT i'm getting ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected - got CLOB error. I know that DISTINCT keyword cannot be used for CLOB datatypes.

I have a function which returns a preformatted SQL but with duplicates as follows
FSI
..FSIL
..FSIL
....IS123
....IS123
....IS345
....IS345
....IS547
....IS547
..FSIR
..FSIR
....IS98777
....IS98777
....IS34567
....IS34567
....IS67799
....IS67799
I have to eliminate the above result set without changing the order. a distinct on the function returns a jumbled result set.

I have following query which gives currency code from two different tables. I would like to get the distinct count of currency codes from these two different columns.
SELECT eb.person_seq_id, eb.bonus_amount, eb.currency_cd, ed.currency_cd_host
FROM fr_emp_bonuses eb, fr_emp_details ed, fr_periods p
WHERE eb.person_seq_id = ed.person_seq_id AND ed.period_seq_id = eb.period_seq_id
AND ed.period_seq_id = p.period_seq_id AND p.period_status = 'CURRENT'
AND eb.bonus_amount >= 0 AND eb.person_seq_id = 3525125;
This query gives following result
3525125240000USDINR
35251250 USDINR
352512560000 USDINR
352512550000 USDINR
There are two distinct currency codes (USD, INR) and total amount is 350000. So I am looking for a query to give me the following result
3525125350000 2

I need to select multiple columns but only have 2 of them which are distinct. For instance if i have
userid lastname firstname city country time
1 jones tom lon gb 2:25
2 wall paul la usa 2:30
1 jones tom lon gb 2:50
3 smith jane ny usa 2:55
what i would want to do is select all the columns but avoid duplicate lastname-firstname combination rows. The problem is if i use a group by i have to include all the columns and because time is different i will get tom jones twice. a way of getting round this so i can select all the columns but only 1 row of tom jones.

The above Query is not working with Distinct & Order By clause are present and by joining two tables. I need the distinct values of levels in Descending order of Terms.

The table creation and Data insertion script is attached with the message.Basically I want to sort all the data based on the order by clause and then remove duplicates from the TSKID column and get distinct TSKIDs in the same order.I have below query to sort data:
SELECT *
FROM piwingetworkitems_vd
ORDER BY profilepriority,
authdptpriority,
returnpriority ASC,
priority DESC,
effdate,
tskid
But when I add a DISTINCT to the query, it does some kind of random sort and doesn't return the data as per above ORDER BY query and ignoring the SORT order.
SELECT DISTINCT tskid
FROM (SELECT *
FROM piwingetworkitems_vd
ORDER BY profilepriority,
authdptpriority,
returnpriority ASC,
priority DESC,
effdate,
tskid)
Is there any way to select the DISTINCT taskids ordered as per requirements?

Following on from this answered thread: (xmlagg(xmlelement) - Distinct Values Required..Whereby the last poster recommended the use of
RTRIM (
XMLAGG (
XMLELEMENT (
E,
XMLATTRIBUTES (segment1|| ',' AS "Seg")
)
ORDER BY segment1 ASC
).EXTRACT ('./E[not(@Seg = preceding-sibling::E/@Seg)]/@Seg'),
','
)
To get a distinct list of elements. Works great, but I actually need to use the concept of "distinct immediately preceding".
Sample data:
create table xml_test
(emp_number number, seq number)
insert into xml_test values ('12345',1);
insert into xml_test values ('23456',2);
insert into xml_test values ('44323',3);
insert into xml_test values ('12345',4);

I've read so many different pages on this topic but I can't seem to get my query the way it needs to be. Here's the query:
select admitnbr, lastname||', '||firstname||' '||finitial, hphone, mobile, wphone, med_rec, dob
from patients join schedule using (key_patien)
join adtmirro using (key_patien)
where appt_state = 'ON HOLD'
Because patients in my database can have multiple appointments "on hold" there are duplicates in the results. I only need 1 record per patient in order to forward this information into an automated dialer to contact that patient. I do NOT want to call the patient over and over again. Once will suffice. I'm trying to make a distinction on the column 'med_rec'. One row per 'med_rec' will be awesome but I can't find a way to create a distinct on that column.

I have a collection of objects built in a PL/SQL program.
I want to keep only the distinct elements of this collection for the rest of the program.
I failed to find the correct way to do it
For instance (the actual object is far more complex containing object attributes itself), with the following types:
drop type t1b
/
drop type t1a
/
create or replace type t1a as object (
v1 integer,
v2 integer
)
/
create or replace type t1b as table of t1a
/
I have the following variable:
v t1b := t1b(t1a(1,2),t1a(1,2));
And I want to get only one "t1a(1,2)" in my collection.
My first idea (actually the second one but it does not matter) was to use DISTINCT:
SQL> declare
2 v t1b := t1b(t1a(1,2),t1a(1,2));
3 begin
4 select distinct t1a(v1,v2) bulk collect into v from table(v);
5 dbms_output.put_line(v.count);
6 end;
7 /
declare
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-22950: cannot ORDER objects without MAP or ORDER method ORA-06512: at line 4
As I said the object is far more complex and builting a MAP function is quite tedious (but I will do it if there is no other way).
The next idea was to use multiset operators:
SQL> declare
2 v t1b := t1b(t1a(1,2),t1a(1,2));
3 begin
4 select v multiset intersect distinct v into v from dual;
5 dbms_output.put_line(v.count);
6 end;
7 /
1
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
This works well but I suspect this is not the correct way and there is one to do it in PL/SQL but currently failed to find it.

I think this is easier than I think but all I want to do is count the distinct rows in a table.
WITH data AS
(SELECT 1 id1, 1 id2, 111 val1
FROM dual
UNION ALL
SELECT 1, 2, 222
FROM dual
UNION ALL
[Code]..
seems to get what I want
ID1VAL1CNT1
111114
212224
321114
422224
but can the count be done in a stand alone query such as??
SELECT DISTINCT id1,
val1,
COUNT(*) over() cnt1,
COUNT(*) over(PARTITION BY id1) cnt2
FROM data
ORDER BY id1, val1
NOT what I want
ID1VAL1CNT1CNT2
1111152
2122252
3211153
4222253

I am trying to work with query to get distinct unique records, following is my scenerio:
DocNo |Title| Revs|UpdateTime|OBID
DOC-101|DESCRIPTION1|1|2/28/2004 11:37|6108-9
DOC-101|DESCRIPTION1|1|2/28/2004 11:36|6106-13
DOC-201|DESCRIPTION2|0|4/24/2005 16:44|7899-1
[code]...
From the above duplicates I would like to get only 1 distinct record based on latest update time (when using distinct on a sub-query since OBID is unique again returning all recds)
I am expecting results like:
DocNo|Title| Revs|UpdateTime|OBID
DOC-101|DESCRIPTION1|1|2/28/2004 11:37|6108-9
DOC-201|DESCRIPTION2|0|4/24/2005 16:47|7900-1

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.

FROM ( SELECT DISTINCT opr, COUNT (*) AS distinctcount
FROM out
WHERE code = '22'
AND timestamp LIKE '201303%'
GROUP BY opr)
I would like this value 'distinctcount' to be multiplied with different amount for period January till June and from June to December. For instance for period (January till June) to be multiplied with 0.02, for period (June to December) to be multiplied with 0.03.
