SQL & PL/SQL :: Single Quote(') In Query Not Working?

Jan 5, 2013

I have table say Messages. In which there is a column msg_text varchar2(900).My requirement is to fetch the very last character of the msg_text for a single row identified by its msg_code(primary key).

The problem is, whenever msg_text contain second last character as single quote( ' ), it doesn't give me the last character i.e. after the single quote.For example if msg_text is "Congratulations, you opted for 'A'." and if its message_code is 10 then query

SQL> SELECT SUBSTR(msg_text,LENGTH(msg_text),LENGTH(msg_text)) AS LAST_CHAR
FROM messages
WHERE msg_code = 10;

returns nothing.

Whereas if msg_text is "Are you sure to continue?" and if its message_code is 20 then query

SQL> SELECT SUBSTR(msg_text,LENGTH(msg_text),LENGTH(msg_text)) AS LAST_CHAR
FROM messages
WHERE msg_code = 20;

returns character '?'.

PL/SQL :: How To Replace 2 Single Quotes To Single Quote

Nov 21, 2012

I have an script.sql that receives as a parameter an string.

example:

@C:/myscript.sql "o'connor"

user_account_value varchar2(120) := '&1';

EXECUTE IMMEDIATE "Select * from Table where column = :1 "  USING user_account_value I am not sure how to deal with string that contains single quotes.

If the parameter were passed as : "o''connor" this will work
If the parameter is pass as: "o'connor" this will not work.

so my question is what options do I have to deal with dynamic queries and single quotes.

I tried replacing replace(myParameter,'''',''''''); but not working well.

frec t_frec;

-- flow of data, is from v_sql --> plsql record --> plsql table

begin
dbms_output.put_line(' month of paramter '|| P_IN_DATE ||' is '||to_char(P_IN_DATE,'MON'));
select min(x)
into v_comp
from test_g
where x <= P_IN_DATE

[code].....

how do I store v_strg values so that the dates are included in single quotes

begin
p_testq('12-DEC-2012');
end;
v_strg: 06-Nov-2012,09-Nov-2012

I want values to be '06-Nov-2012',''09-Nov-2012'

SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Select Data When It Has Single Quote In Value

Sep 4, 2013

The description field in the item table has the single quote used as the symbol for feet. I have the same issue pulling from a last name field in other tables. (Like O'Connor)

select descrip into v_result
from c_ship_hist
where shipment_dtl_id = :SDID;
exception when others then null;

The error I get is "Missing right quote". How do I code around this issue without having to change the data?

SQL & PL/SQL :: Query To Get Consecutive Working Days From A Table

Jul 15, 2011

I have a problem with a query. I have a table employee with data as

emp_id date day working_ind
1 01-Jan-2011 Mon Y
1 02-Jan-2011 Tue Y
1 03-Jan-2011 Wed Y
1 04-Jan-2011 Thu Y
1 05-Jan-2011 Fri Y
1 06-Jan-2011 Sat N
1 07-Jan-2011 Sun N
1 09-Jan-2011 Tue Y

Sundays/ Monday/ any public holiday the working_ind will be N. If the emp is absent on one day then there will be no record entered in the table (e.g. 8th jan there is no record). Each table has only one year data.

I need to retrieve for all employees when they worked for 30 consecutive days without being absent which does not include sat/ Sunday / holidays.

Its like:
-- i need to order by emp_id and date
-- get oly the data with working_ind as Y
-- make sure that i get 30 consecutive days (from what ever i get above) where no days data is missing

I tried using lag and inner join but it does not seem to be working.

PL/SQL :: Single Sub Row Query Returns More Than 1 Row?

Apr 19, 2013

I am trying to update values in a table from another table and getting the error: Single Sub Row Query Returns More Than 1 Row.

I want table B's PRV_NAME updated into table A's PRV_NAME where A.PRVID = B.PRVID where B.PRV_TYPE = M'

Both tables have all unique PRVID's, however, table B has PRVID's that have the same name. So table B data can look like this:

PRVID PRV_NAME
1234 PHOENIX MED
1235 SAC MED
1236 SAC MED
1237 OVERLAND
etc..

So, as you can see the PRVID's are unique, but not the PRV_NAME's. Is this the reason why I get this error?

I did not build the tables and have no control over what is put in them. If this is the reason for the error, is there any way to resolve this?

For reference, here is the query.

update msb_prv_source ps
set ps.prv_name =
(select prv00.prv00_prv_name
from prv00_prv prv00
join msb_prv_source ps
on prv00.prv00_prv_id = ps.prvid
where prv00.prv00_prv_type = 'M')

PL/SQL :: Select Top Row In Single Query?

Sep 19, 2013

write a query to get the first row after order by clause using single query alone.Example:I can write following query to select first rowselect * from (selec * from t order by col1) where rownum = 1;But here I should not use inline view to get the result. Because my original requirement needs to use this query in select list and it needs to use a column (of a table from the FROM clause) in the where clause of inline query. Because there is restriction that we can not use the column (of a table from the FROM clause) more than one level of inline query.

SQL & PL/SQL :: Select Single Query And GroupBy Together?

Jul 8, 2011

i have a problem in the following query. i need to fetch the rows such that i want to fetch all the records keeping "segment1" column as distinct and sum all of the corresponding "quantities" column.

select prha.segment1 --as requisition_no
,prha.creation_date
,sum(prla.quantity)
,prha.description

[code]...

i tried to use the partition technique. using partition solved the problem apperently. the sum function worked but redundancy in "segment1" column still persists. i used the sum function only to extract the distinct "segment1" column and summing its corresponding "quantity" column (only quantity column differs in the redundant rows...)

the second query was like:

SELECT prha.segment1,
prha.creation_date,
SUM(prla.quantity) OVER(PARTITION BY prha.segment1) AS qty,
prha.DESCRIPTION,

In the above example the inner decode statement returning two mail address, I need to capture that, but while executing the whole query it is erroring out as saying single query returns multiple values. capture multiple values
