SQL & PL/SQL :: Regexp_substr Single Step Possible?
Oct 27, 2011
I'm trying to get this down from two regexp to a single one, but I'm not sure it can be done and if so, its beyond me to work out how atm.

The expression itself contains all the rules I'm aware of (nothing to say they won't move the goalposts again mind!) of and the desired output is as shown above. I should add that the actual data is more complex (many tags per record) so it rules out a regexp_replace
I have a standard workflow process which was started but got completed without performing all the process.The process had to generate two(Comments & Approval) notifications but generated only one & as the user responded to the notification it got completed without invoking the approval process.Now I need the workflow to be rolled back to the initial step to restart the whole process again.
My query returns the 3rd field from a CSV string. If the third field in the string is empty I want the select to return a null but it returns the 4th field :
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR( 'A,B,,D,E','[^,]+',1,3) from dual;
.. this returns 'D'.
Can we somehow make the REGEX_SUBSTR return a NULL for the third field ?
I can separate numbers from string (info) and the first value of the string using REGEXP_SUBSTR (see below):
with dat as (select '35263304 Alcatel One Touch 806' info from dual) select info, REGEXP_SUBSTR ( info, '[[:digit:]]+',1 ) tac, REGEXP_SUBSTR ( info, '[[:alpha:]]+',1) brand from dat
But how can I get rest of the values from that string (red color) ?
I just would like to get separately like: 35263304 Alcatel One Touch 806
I'm trying to query an array where we will have mathnames that have the follow format: variablemathname[00000]
have been digging around for a few days to try and simplify my existing query. As of right now i'm hacking it together to bring back the bracketed array value by using INSTR and SUBSTR. This works and gets me the correct results but I want to clean the code up by using regexp_SUBSTR.
In my reading up on regular expression I've tried to create my pattern by using [.] which I believe to be [any character]. I want it to start at the beginning of the string so I've used [^ and I only want the one occurrence so I've ended my expression with ]
I tried using the escape before my pattern as I know that [ is a metacharacter but I receive the same results.i'm trying to use to get the expression correct.
SELECT REGEXP_SUBSTR('variablemathname[00000]', '[.],[^,],') RESULT FROM DUAL;
My expectation is it will bring back the following [00000] but the way it is written now is bringing back nothing.
I am using embedded sql in a Fortran program on IBM AIX. Whenever I execute a SQL statement other than connect I get a coredump. So I wrote a small test program, but same thing happens. This is the test program -
PROGRAM TEST EXEC BEGIN DECLARE SECTION CHARACTER*20 UDPWD EXEC END DECLARE SECTION [code]....
And then when I run test, I see the 'Connected' print & then coredump. Same thing happens for EXEC SQL Prepare statement. Am I not linking some library ?
My Scenario is'....456re0,50kg400,500rfabs43qre30,25kg150,354rf658....'
there is possible,using regexp_substr or other way to get the values, 0,50 and 400,500 and 30,25 and 150,354? I'm using [^re]+[$kg] and the string comes, but only the first occurence..
I am using regexp_substr to break the pipe delimited string. Want to use the output as the NUMBER input to a cursor.Its not working and not getting any error also.
Here is an example.
initial input : '5545|4124|12456' using the sql below to break the string into columns. select regexp_substr('5545|4124|12456','[^|]+', 1, level)) from dual connect by regexp_substr(, '[^|]+', 1, level) is not null;
But when i try to pass the output of the above query to a cursor with input defined as number, its not accepting. I tried using to_number for the output of above query.
I'm trying to test moving a single instance 11202 database to single instance w/ grid infra.
Here is what I've done:
1. Install a database (11202), single instance and create a database 2. Install Grid Software only (user: grid) 3. start the cluster 4. "srvctl add database -d orclsidb -o $ORACLE_HOME" to register the database with grid. 4.1> I was able to start/stop the database with srvctl command here onwards 5. configure disks using asmlib and start the asm 6. "srvctl add asm" to register asm with grid. 7. PROBLEM ... when I try to "backup as copy database format '+ASM_DATA_DG';" from oracle user it errors out as below:
RMAN> backup as copy database format '+ASM_DATA_DG';

Business should be able to issue a job whereby the sub assemblies do not have a different job number, however the job itself maintains the indentation (BOM levels). What we are looking to do is to issue one job for a full build of a product, which would be built in one go anyway.
I have a table which lists previous jobs, whcih has monthto,yearto, monthfrom and year from fields. I am trying to find the most recent job (of which they might be multiple ending on the same month) Initially, i did the following:
ran a sub query to find the most recent (employee id, max (yearto * 12 + monthto), then another query where I got a list of the most recent jobs, and returned the first one using rownum = 1 (note this may be inconsistent between runs as thee rownum is calculcated before nay ordering clause. This worked, but i figured using the first function might be better as it gives an order
select employee_id from (select employee_id ,max(NVL(yearto,0) *12 + NVL(monthto,1)) KEEP (DENSE_RANK FIRST ORDER BY emloyer) as latest from employees group by employee_id;
but this seems to return more than one entrty:
table date below: drop table employee_list; drop table employee_historic; [code]...
What is the best way to return a single row, if the primary key is not available / applicable.
I am returning the ORA-01427 after running the query below. why I am returning the error and how to address it.
select b.value , b.name, p.value ......

Just trying to update a table in which the sales amount is inserted when the sales amount is null.
I have
UPDATE ph2_customer_temp SET sales_amount = ( SELECT sl.sales_amount FROM PH2_CUSTOMER_TEMP pct join sales_limit sl on substr(pct.site_code,1,2) = sl.state where pct.credit_limit is null )
I can't seem to wrap my head around this problem I'm having with a query. I need to update all rows in my ps_ntsr_gf_stufile tables with the concatenated values from the ps_classes_tbl table where a.CLASS_NBR = b.CLASS_NBR. I tried to limit it to emplid from the ps_stdnt_enrl table but no luck.
UPDATE ps_ntsr_gf_stufile a SET a.CLASS_NAME = (SELECT CONCAT('SUBJECT', 'CATALOG_NBR') FROM PS_CLASS_TBL b WHERE a.CLASS_NBR = b.CLASS_NBR AND a.STRM = '1118' AND a.INSTITUTION = 'NT752') WHERE a.EMPLID IN (SELECT distinct EMPLID FROM PS_STDNT_ENRL);
I have one Linux machine on which first I did with Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise edition (EE) , it was working fine.
now today I installed oracle11gR2 Standard edition in different partition which is having separate oracle_home from EE.
when I checked the listener services ,port and all , I came to know that the new installation(SE) it will automatically pickup different listener name(listener_SE SID name) and non-standard port(1523).
I did with oracle10gR2 SE and EE both on the same machine with different oracle_home but all together using only one listener (LISTENER) and one port - 1521.

when i am trying to run this query i am getting an error'single row subquery returns more than one row'.
My problem : I Wrote a package(a function), this function just return a varchar2 , but in this function I wrote a cursor , when I call this function in this manner :
I have written the below sql select loc,(select ename from emp where emp.deptno = dept.deptno) from dept
It results in the below error.
[Error] Execution (1: 13): ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row
I have modified the SQL and got the required output select em.ename,dep.loc from (select loc,deptno from dept) dep , (select ename,deptno from emp) em where dep.deptno=em.deptno(+)
I have written the below sql to fetch all loc for emp which got executed
SELECT ENAME, (SELECT LOC FROM DEPT WHERE DEPT.DEPTNO=EMP.DEPTNO) LOC FROM EMP
But as i need all locations irrespective of any emp in the locaton so i tried to put emp side (+) which resulted in error.
I want to get any employee name of deptno 10 but total count of number of employees under dept 10.
DECLARE l_deptno NUMBER:=10; l_count NUMBER; l_ename varchar2(20); BEGIN SELECT count(*) OVER(order by empno) ,ename INTO l_count,l_ename FROM emp WHERE ROWNUM=1 and deptno=l_deptno; dbms_output.put_line(l_count||' '||l_ename); end;
We need to get the single node with class type ="1" from this XML as given below.At any point of time, there will be only one such tag with classType="1". Its position could be anywhere inside the "GroupDetails" Tag.ie, The query should get the tag irrespective of its position inside "GroupDetails".
<info groupId="128" classType="1"/>
Is there any way using EXTRACT function with 3 parameter? I tried but with failure.
with rec AS ( select XMLTYPE( '<connection value="0"> <GroupDetails> <info groupId="100" classType="0"/> <info groupId="128" classType="1"/>
