I have a simple column in a table which store a description. This can include line breaks so when you select from it, it looks similar to below
'Part number: X
Batch: Y
Size: Z'
I would like to be able to create a view (so not having any impact on the original data) to return it as below
'Part number: X Batch: Y Size: Z'

My query is suppose to capture the student's number, date of birth, and number of students which that students mentors. I am suppose to show only the 5 oldest students
SELECT s.std_num, s.birth_date, COUNT(s2.mentor_num)
From Student s left outer join Student s2
on s2.mentor_num=s.std_num
GROUP BY s.std_num, s.birth_date
ORDER BY s.birth_date ASC;
This function works but the problem is in displaying the five records because whenever I apply the rownum<=5 function the counter returns incorrect results. I tried writing another query to fix it but I could not dispay the counter anymore
SELECT ROWNUM as SENIOR, s.std_num, s.birth_date, COUNT(s2.mentor_num)
FROM (SELECT s1.std_num, s1.birth_date, COUNT

on s2.mentor_num=s1.std_num
GROUP BY s1.std_num, s1.birth_date
ORDER BY s1.birth_date ASC) S
WHERE row_num<=5;
This code only works if I remove the count in the first line but I need to display the number in my result.

I am using JDBC to run a few queries from my Java program (multi-threaded one).I am facing an issue where a select statement is blocking a delete statement. From the java code point of view, there are 2 different threads accessing the same tables (whith different DB connection objects).
When the block occurs (which i was able to find out from the java thread dump that there is a lock on oracle), the below is the output:
SQL> SELECT TO_CHAR(sysdate, 'DD-MON-YYYY HH24:MI:SS')
2 || ' User '||s1.username || '@' || s1.machine
3 || ' ( SID= ' || s1.sid || ' ) with the statement: ' || sqlt2.sql_text
||' is blocking the SQL statement on '|| s2.username || '@'
4 5 || s2.machine || ' ( SID=' || s2.sid || ' ) blocked SQL -> '
6 ||sqlt1.sql_text AS blocking_status FROM v$lock l1, v$session s1, v$lock l2 ,
7 v$session s2,v$sql sqlt1, v$sql sqlt2
8 WHERE s1.sid =l1.sid
9 AND s2.sid =l2.sid AND sqlt1.sql_id= s2.sql_id
AND sqlt2.sql_id= s1.prev_sql_id AND l1.BLOCK =1
10 AND l2.request > 0 AND l1.id1 = l2.id1 AND l2.id2 = l2.id2;
[code]...
From the above it can be seen that a select statement is blocking a delete. Unless the select is select for Update, it should not block other statements is not it ?

Both databases are version 10.2.0.4 and both are running on HPUX 11.31.Why do we get this differents in showing the result?

I'm working on a plsql program and i'm using collections. I loop the collection and delete rows of it depending on the edits of my program. Here is the question.
if my collection holds
rows
[1]value
[2]value
[3]value
i can simply do something like FOR indx in invoice.first..invoice.lasthowever if i delete row 2 of my collection i get an error. no data found.
ive been researching this site

rows
[1]value
[3]value
[4]value
is there a way to tell plsql i just want it to loop the collection from top to bottom regardless of the index values?
i am more than ready to RTFM, if any of the members give me the right pointers to proceed. My company has a replication issue, which my manager asked me to check anything i can. This can be pure architectural question where i will have redesign the application, i am also ready to read on any design patterns and change code
Basically, we have a Primary Publisher in US and the Subscriber in UK. I am told that the replication setup is MASTER - MASTER. Any updates in US will update the servers in UK and vice versa. The .Net application is client machine hosted application which does the changes in the local server respective to its geographical domain i.e applications running in U.K will update the U.K server only. Once the update is done, the data is replicated to other server. It works well most of the time, but sometimes when the user is updating the same record in US and U.K at the same time. The Replication breaks, since before updating either server, if the row in the table is in different due to an user update, replication breaks.
point me to any solutions either Oracle Replication design wise or .net application design wise.
If i inserted the values in table it gets inserting very few rows only.I dont know y it is?

Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0
We are processing spatial data from another source to display in our GIS environment. The data is a set of multi lines. The gtype is 2006. A typical geometry looks like:
SDO_GTYPE 2006
SDO_SRID 31370
SDO_POINT.X NULL
SDO_POINT.Y NULL
SDO_POINT.Z NULL
SDO_ELEM_INFO (1,2,1, 7,2,1)
SDO_ORDINATES (105094.84, 195084.96,
105094.54, 195080.22,
105094.84, 195084.96,
105094.84, 195084.96,
105094.68, 195082.47 )
Now, this is not an actual multiline... it's just encoded as a multi line, but if you look at the coordinates you'll see that the end point of the first line is the same as the beginning of the second line (105094.84, 195084.96).
A better way to encode this geometry would be:
SDO_GTYPE 2002 <---
SDO_SRID 31370
SDO_POINT.X NULL
SDO_POINT.Y NULL
SDO_POINT.Z NULL
SDO_ELEM_INFO (1,2,1)
SDO_ORDINATES (105094.84, 195084.96,
105094.54, 195080.22,

I have a question about select statements, as I am new to them and don't know how to work all the commands yet.
I'm making a select statement that is about half right... it is shown below:
select t.warehouse_id,
t.quantity_on_hand,
c.product_name
from pahtest3.inventories t
join pahtest3.product_information c using (product_id)
WHERE warehouse_id in (7);
I need to take this select statement and make it so it shows all the products that don't have any quantities in the warehouse in addition to the ones that are already being shown in that select statement.
decode (a.cancel_time,'',sum ((to_date('23:59','hh24:mi') - a.alarm_time)*24*60), sum((a.cancel_time - a.alarm_time)*24*60)) Duration,
After executing this statement. I get negative values if cancel time is null
I want to subtract alarm_time by 24 hours, if cancel time is null. If not null then cancel-time - alarm_time
how to set the timing on for all SELECT statements in a procudeure...and i want that should come as a output for very SELECT statement slong with my original output.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a need to use the Alias name of a column within the same select statement( because I can't have another select statement using the first select as table - BO tool limitation).
Ex:

I'm trying to write a simple query so I can do some testing on my application. I am trying to do something like this:
SELECT
Location,
LEVEL,
FROM
S_ORG_EXT
where
Location = 'North America' and LEVEL ='Software'
OR location = 'North America'
and Active = 'N'
in the where statement, I have put in the 'Active' that isn't a column. I want to be able to be able to change that in the select part. But I am not able to do so.
this is what I have tried:
SELECT
Location,
LEVEL,
Active = 'N' --I want to change this in the to N or Y so I can get different results.
FROM
S_ORG_EXT
where
Location = 'North America' and LEVEL ='Software'
OR location = 'North America'
and Active = 'N'
I have the following tables:
create table lookups (code varchar2(20), amount number);
insert into lookups values ('Rent' , 500);
insert into lookups values ('Breakpoint' , 10);
create table products (id number, cost number, year varchar2(4));
insert into products values (1, 1000, '2011');
insert into products values (1, 2000, '2011');
insert into products values (2, 100, '2011');
insert into products values (3, 50, '2011');
commit;
I want to write a query which lists the IDs and the sum(cost), and a Y/N indicator which is set to 'Y' IF sum(cost) > ( (lookups.rent value) * (100 - lookups.breakpoint value))/100
I have written this query:
SELECT id,
sum(cost)cost,
year,
CASE
WHEN cost >
((SELECT amount
[code]....... ORDER BY id;
This returns
ID COST YEAR YN
--------- ---------- ---- -
1 1000 2011 Y
1 2000 2011 Y
2 100 2011 N
3 50 2011 N
The YN is correct, but it needs to sum the amounts. So there should only be one row for id1 = 3000.e.g.
ID COST YEAR YN
--------- ---------- ---- -
1 3000 2011 Y
2 100 2011 N
3 50 2011 N
I am not sure how to do this. Or is there a better way of doing this than using CASE.

I have a cursor in a procedure that selects columns from a table on a remote Oracle database using a database link. It all works fine when the table name and database link name is 'hard coded' into the procedure but what I would like to achieve is have the select statement lookup the table name and database link name from a column in another table. See example below
CURSOR c_total_bookings IS
SELECT personnel_id,
surname,
forenames,
birth_date,

What I would like to do is replacecompany_bookings@remote.linkwith a variable that takes its value from another table.
