i have two questions.
(1) how can i fill some value in a table column based on some existing column value automatically without user intervention. my actual problem is i have 'expiry date' column and 'status'. the 'status' column should get filled automatically based on the current system date. ex: if expiry date is '25-Apr-2011' and current date is '14-May-2011', then status should be filled as 'EXPIRED'
(2)hOw can i build 'select' query in a report (report 6i) so that it will show me list of items 'EXPIRED' or 'NOT EXPIRED' or both expired and not expired separately in a single report based on user choice. 'EXPIRED' & 'NOT EXPIRED' can be taken from the above question no. 1.

I am trying to create a trigger which changes the content of one column based on the information within another column.
For Example, if the 'ITEMQUANTITY' field drops below 1 then I want the STATUS column to say 'Out Of Stock'.

I want to insert data from table A and dump into table B.The data in Table A looks like this:
Level_IDCode Type
ETY_1A......... 100000116
ETY_1B......... 100000116
ETY_1C......... 100000116
ETY_2AA........ 100000117
ETY_2AB........ 100000117
ETY_2AC........ 100000117
ETY_2BA........ 100000117
ETY_2BB........ 100000117
ETY_2BC........ 100000117
ETY_3AAA....... 100000118
ETY_3AAG....... 100000118
ETY_3AAI....... 100000118
ETY_3AAX....... 100000118
[code]....
And I want to dump the data into Table B which will look like this:
Level_ID Code Type Parent_cd
ETY_1A.........100000116null
ETY_1B.........100000116null
ETY_1C.........100000116null
ETY_2AA........100000117A
ETY_2AB........100000117A
ETY_2AC........100000117A
ETY_2BA........100000117B
ETY_2BB........100000117B
ETY_2BC........100000117B
ETY_3AAA.......100000118AA
ETY_3AAG.......100000118AA
ETY_3AAI.......100000118AA
[code]....
I need to populate a column called Parent Cd with the values that sits at the base level of the hierarchy. So, if the code A sits at the base level then its parent is NULL and the parent for code AA, AB, and AC will be A and parent for AAA, AAG will be AA and so on.The level_IDs are upto 10 and there are close to 400,000 records.

I am new to Oracle and I inherited an existing database. I have a materialized view on a table that uses a materialized view log. I have been asked to see if it is possible to categories the rows by change type (inserted, updated or deleted) and populate another materialized view or table accordingly. If this is possible then how can it be achieved.

I have an update trigger that runs a package when fired. I only want this package to run if it is NOT fired from an Oracle Forms application. Ie. A user might update table ABC from an Oracle Form. In this instance the trigger would fire, but I don't want to run the package within the trigger. If the user logs onto PL/SQL developer and updates the table, the trigger would fire and the package must run.
I was thinking of using the field 'program' from v$session. If it is null (it's being fired from an Oracle Forms application) if it has a value (it's coming from SQL*Plus / Pl/sql Developer).

I frequently need to run queries to do things like sum space used by each schema, but excluding all of the default system users. Is there a better way to identify the default users than listing all 30 of them in a "not in" expression? For example in sql server to query user databases you just say "with database_ id > 4". Is there something simple like that in Oracle to identify all default users?

I have a query that should return count the number of rows depending on the value of SLOT. The expected result will be like this:
WIPDATAVALUE SLOT N M
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 1 3
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 2 3
3 TRALTEST43S1 3 3
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 1 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 2 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 3 4
7 TRALTEST43S2 4 4
The M column is used to count the total number of occurrences of a SLOT. Now, as for the N field, this is used to count the occurrence of the SLOT. In my example for the SLOT TRALTEST43S1, it has three occurrences so M will be 3. Why 3, is because of the WIPDATAVALUE. The WIPDATAVALUE of TRALTEST43S1 is 1-2 and 3. 1-2 WIPDATAVALUE signifies two occurrences (one to two) and 3 signifies only one occurrence. As for N, it should just count the number of occurrence. To further explain, see below:
WIPDATAVALUE SLOT N M
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 1 3 -> First occurrence in the total of 3
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 2 3 -> Second occurrence in the total of 3
3 TRALTEST43S1 3 3 -> Third occurrence in the total of 3
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 1 4 -> First occurrence in the total of 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 2 4 -> Second occurrence in the total of 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 3 4 -> Third occurrence in the total of 4
7 TRALTEST43S12 4 4 -> Fourth occurrence in the total of 4
This is the query that I have so far:
SELECT DISTINCT
WIPDATAVALUE, SLOT
, LEVEL AS n
, m
FROM
(
SELECT
WIPDATAVALUE
, SLOT
, (dulo - una) + 1 AS m
[code]....
I think that my current query is basing its M and N results on WIPDATAVALUE and not the SLOT that is why I get the wrong output. I have also tried to use the WITH Statement and it works well but unfortunately, our system cant accept subquery factoring.

I have table with values :
PROV_IDMEASURE_IDPERCENTAGE
Z0000221P114 45
Z0000135P115 68
For the column all possible values are ( P102,P101,P103 etc toP124). I want to create a view ( if possible ) from the above with data output as :
PROV_ID P101 P102 P103 ............................P124

basically this view has columns based on the previous tables column ( MEASURE_ID) values and the values will be corresponding value in column Percentage.

In the below Table Structure, TB_Vehicles is the Master table and TB_Cars, TB_Bikes, TB_Cars are Satellite tables which hold more info about respective vehicles.
I want users to search using the Name. So, when users enter Name as 'Access', my query should give all information about that vehicle, including that from Satellite Tables (using both TB_Vehicles and TB_Scooters).
SELECT *
FROM TB_Vehicles
WHERE V_NAME = 'Access';
Similarly, if user enters 'Linea', it should give info from TB_Vehicles and TB_Cars tables.
So, with V_NAME as input, I'll find V_TYPE from TB_Vehicles table, and using that, I need to identify which satellite table, I need to join to retrieve more info.
Do I need to use CASE or DECODE to achieve this?

here on your forum but has been following several threads ever since.So anyway here is the thing, I have a query that should return count the number of rows depending on the value of SLOT. Something like this:
WIPDATAVALUE SLOT N M
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 1 3
1-2 TRALTEST43S1 2 3
3 TRALTEST43S1 3 3
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 1 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 2 4
4-6 TRALTEST43S2 3 4
7 TRALTEST43S2 4 4-----
As you can see above, on the SLOT TRALTEST43S1, there are three occurrences so M (Total number of occurrences) should be three and that column N should count it. Same goes with the SLOT TRALTEST43S2. This is the query that I have so far:
SELECT DISTINCT
WIPDATAVALUE, SLOT
, LEVEL AS n
, m
FROM
(
[code]...
I think that my current query is basing its M and N results on WIPDATAVALUE and not the SLOT that is why I get the wrong output. I have also tried to use the WITH Statement and it works well but unfortunately, our system cant accept subquery factoring.
