SQL & PL/SQL :: Substitution Variable In Sqlplus
Jul 20, 2011
Here is a simple sqlplus line command with & substitution run time variable.
set verify off;
SQL> SELECT * FROM emp where sal >&SAL;
Enter value for sal:
Now as you see, oracle asks to Enter Value for substitution variable in line just below the SQL>. I wonder if there is one or more line could be left there so to improve the readability. So it should look like:
set verify off;
SQL> SELECT * FROM emp where sal >&SAL;
Enter value for sal:

I have a table emp with columns [id,name,job_id,dept_id]. now I make a simple select query.
select id,name,job_id,dept_id
from emp
where id = &a
and name = &b
and job_id =&c
and dept_id =&d;
now in this case it will ask the values for all the columns and will according print result.
Now my questions is what will happen if I just pass the value for only id and name not for other two...?

Declare a variable called sal to store the salary of an employee. In the executable part of the program, do the following:
a.Store an employee name in a substitution variable.
b.Store his or her salary in a variable.
c.If the salary is less than 5,000, give the employee a 10% raise and display the message "<Employee Name> salary updated" in the window.
d.If the salary is more Last Name Message than or equal to 3,000, print the employee's salary in the format, "<Employee Name> earns ............. No raise is given."
So the result should ask for the last name
- Himuro and message should show [Himuro's salary updated]
- Greenberg [Greenberg earns 12000. No raise is given.]
- Patel [Patel's salary updated]
Here is my PL/SQL
set serveroutput on
DECLARE
v_emp_sal employees.salary%type;
v_emp_last_name employees.last_name%type;
BEGIN
v_emp_last_name :=initcap('&emplastname');
SELECT salary
INTO v_emp_sal
[code]......
question:
How can I get the apostrophe in the dbms_output.put_line. Attached is the create employees table code.

Is it possible to have $ substitutions in Select statements ?
For example
Select * from my_table where ID in ${ID_LIST} and DAY >= to_date(${SOME_DATE})
$ID_LIST = (100,200,300)
$SOME_DATE = 10-10-2011 12:12:00
For the ID_LIST is using Prepared statements with ?,?,? the way to go ? Or are there are any Define we can do in SQL plus for this substitions ?

How I go about writing a query that doesn't see the '&' symbol as a substitution character. The problem I have is:
select replace
( fnd_profile.value( 'XXBPO_URL')
, '&DOCID'
, ai_dfv.bpo__document_link
) document_link
from ap_invoices_all ai
, ap_invoices_all_dfv ai_dfv
where 1=1
-- where clause
The problem above is that instead of replacing the characters &DOCID with the required value, it is prompting for input.

I have created a list with name Test_List and 5 values in it.
I want to pass the values dynamically when i select the list values (any of the 5 values).
I tried:
For each list setting(List Details --> Static list entries --> Target) i have set the
Request as ?Test_List=#Test_List#
Note: Here Test_List is my list name.
Also i have tried
Request as ?Test_List=&Test_List.
But nothing seems to be working...

I'm running a C++ program to call sqlplus to execute some sql scirpts. The program will accept arguments from users at the command line, and execute the script which the name will also be passed in as an argument to the program eg:
./MY_PROG.sh ABC.sql 23
(MY_PROG will call ABC.sql script and pass 23 as an argument to ABC.sql)
it works fine when the argument is passed in correctly, and my ABC.sql scirpt is able to execute correctly, however when the argument is not passed in, the program just hangs there, waiting for an input from the users. This is because "&1" in my script is expecting some value from users.
Because this program will be scheduled to run, and no one will be there to monitor the job, if so happens arguments were missing, the program will wait there for the entire night. Is there any way that I could make the program or the script to exit when there is no input to be found? I can't use timeout as I do not know how long does the script take to finish it operations, I could be updating millions of record from a script.

We have two database instances on the same server. One was left at 9.2.0.7 and one was upgraded to 10.2.0.3. Connecting externally (sqlplus '/as sysdba') to the 9.2.0.7 database is lightning fast. Connecting externally to the 10.2.0.3 database is very slow, comparatively speakiing. This is on an IBM AIX-5L (64-bit) machine. We are using "tnsnames".

I'm having issues with users logging into Oracle. I installed it on Ubuntu 12.04 running Oracle 11.2 XE. If i am root, i can run sqlplus just fine and log in. But when I use a regular user account and run sqlplus, it will just stay blank. No error messages or any feedback. I echo $ORACLE_HOME and echo $ORACLE_SID and they come back exactly as they do under the root account. My path is set up just like root has it.
It almost seems like a permission issue but even when i try sqlplus /nolog it stays blank.

I'm trying to perform a SELECT INTO in a SQL*Plus script.the script i'm working towards to, looks something like this;
set term on
set echo off
set serveroutput off

ACCEPT ReportName PROMPT 'Please enter a report name; '
PROMPT
PROMPT retrieving current settings for &ReportName:
select STARTDATE, ENDDATE, SUFFIX
into pStart, pEnd, pSuffix
from MyTable

we have a program that uses SQLPlus to run PLSQL scripts - this program then checks the return code of SQLPlus to determine whether the script ran successfully. Our PLSQL scripts often call other PLSQL scripts via "@@OtherScript.sql" - one problem we have is that if (due to an engineering mistake) the OtherScript.sql file is missing, SQLPlus throws an SP2 error stating that the file was not found. However, the return code of SQLPlus does not indicate any problem. I have found, by searching the internet, that I can simply add a line "whenever OS error exit failure" to our script which then allows our program to detect the failure... however, the error message is not as informative:
CODESQL*Plus: Release 11.1.0.7.0 - Production on Tue Oct 19 10:28:45 2010
Copyright (c) 1982, 2008, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Connected to:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
[code]....
is it possible to get BOTH types of error messages? With "oserror exit" set it does not tell you which file was not found.. which is useful information. I would like the SQL Plus session to return failure but also print out what file it did not find.

I have a series of sql files that I need to execute via sqlplus. What I do need is to immediately exit the sqlplus instance upon completion of the script. Now, I am not using a batch file, nor a file containing script files where I can add the EXIT command.
I have to effectively run each script from the command line as such:
sqlplus user/pass@server @c: empsomedirsomeScript.sql
Now this works, but once it runs the SQLPlus window is still open. Now I have an event handler (in a c# wrapper) that is supposed to fire once the process terminates...but of course, this even never fires since the sqlplus process doesn't terminate after running the script.
Is there any any any any way to get sqlplus to run this script and then self-exit??
I have no control of the sql script and cannot edit them to include an EXIT command. I need to run them as is.

I have some Oracle Databases and sometimes for me is easier to access to the databases with SQLPLUS instead SQLDEVELOPER or TOAD.
But i can't reach to a good configuration of command line prompt to do queries against the database, normaly if it returns a lot o rows and columns it is unreadable.
