Jul 21, 2010I have written an explicit cursor (procedure given below) and the issue I have is, when the cursor runs the sql statement
(CURSOR csr_address is
SELECT rtrn_id,
entp_abn,prog_program_cd,
sched_nbr,schd_version_yr,
litm_line_item_nbr, revise_val_text
FROM RETURN_LINE_ITEMS
WHERE sched_nbr = '000'
AND prog_program_cd = '01' AND litm_line_item_nbr in ('016','023')
AND rtrn_id = v1_rtrn_id;)
against a particular return id, it fetches 2 rows; one for line item 016 and the other one for line item 023 where in the litm_line_item_nbr for 016 is 016 and for litm_line_item_nbr for 023 is 023. Once that's done, (I have used a For loop cursor), it loops through as follows:
FOR country_rec in csr_address LOOP
v_line_item_16 := country_rec.litm_line_item_nbr;
if v_line_item_16 = '016' then
v_line_item_16 :='016'
end if;

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Use Bind Variable
Jan 12, 2012I have the below cursor 1 which is working already.For my requirement i want to use bind variable like second cursor.But its telling Bind Variable "p_col_list" is NOT DECLARED.
How to use bind variable Here.
Cursor1:
DECLARE
emp_cv sys_refcursor;
iid NUMBER := 1;
i_sql varchar2(100);
p_col_list varchar2(2000) := 'aaa,bbb,ccc,ddd';
BEGIN
i_sql := 'select '''||REPLACE(p_col_list, ',', ''',''')||''' from dual '||CHR(10) ;
dbms_output.put_line(i_sql);
OPEN emp_cv FOR i_sql ;
END;
Cursor2:
DECLARE
emp_cv sys_refcursor;
iid NUMBER := 1;
i_sql varchar2(100);
p_col_list varchar2(2000) := 'aaa,bbb,ccc,ddd';
BEGIN
i_sql := 'select '''||REPLACE(:p_col_list, ',', ''',''')||''' from dual '||CHR(10) ;
dbms_output.put_line(i_sql);
OPEN emp_cv FOR i_sql using p_col_list;
END;
SQL & PL/SQL :: XML - Return New Row For Each Variable?
Oct 31, 2013 I have some XML being returned from a web service, and it returns almost 900 variables. Whilst I am familiar with how to return these in a single row, do I can return a row for each variable? My DBA is very uncomfortable with creating a table with almost 900 columns, for obvious reasons. However, we already have plenty of tables with tens of millions of rows, so he's fine with that. I'll try and expand on the requirement. Below is some XML from the data returned to us:
<APPLICANT app_no="1">
<APPLSUMMARY>
<MAIN W="ZZ" X="{ND}"/>
<COUNTS Z="3" AB="0" BB="3" CB="0" DB="3" EB="3" FB="3" GB="0"/>
</APPLSUMMARY>
</APPLICANT>
I would like to be able to return a new row for each variable, For example:
VARIABLE | VALUE
----------------
W | ZZ
X | {ND}
Z | 3
And so on.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Variable Use In IN Condition?
Dec 5, 2010I had a procedure in which there will be multiple update and select statements Eg: Update table T1 set Column1='X' where Column2 in ('A','B','C') All the update/select queries will have same set of values in the in condition ('A','B','C') will remain same.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Date Variable / IF Statement?
May 26, 2010 am new to oracle based coding and am having a heck of a time trying to figure this out. Basically i need to declare 2 date variables, Begin date and End Date.
I then need an if statement that says if begin date = 0 or is null then set it to the first day of the previous month. and if end date = 0 or is null then set it to the last day of the previous month.
So for today 5/26/2010 i would need
begin date = 4/1/2010
end date = 4/30/2010
I have searched and tried but so far to no avail.
SQL & PL/SQL :: Initialize Variable With Whole Array
Dec 3, 2012I'm having some hard times with attempts to initialize a set of values, Of a specific column from a table into a variable containing it as an array(like a single column table).
I've created & populated table TEST_TAB:
SQL>
SQL> CREATE TABLE "TEST_TAB"

Table created.
SQL>
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('1');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('2');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('3');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into "TEST_TAB" values ('4');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.

Then I am trying to compile a function that gets a parameter - a number. The function should check whether this number exists in this list(return 1), or not(return 0).
I want to initialize key1 column of table TEST_TAB *into* v_my_array(this will be my list), just to see that I can have a set of values in this variable. Then I will want to see if the number is in that list, and return 1 or 0 accordingly.
I get the following error compiling, and can't seem to understand what's wrong:
SQL> create or replace function is_num_in_list (p_number number)
