I was keen on creating left side vertical menus instead of using a tab for every page to organize my application better. An example is
[URL].......
I tried creating a list and attaching it to a page. Did not work. Still investigating this. Specifically, what list option that person is using. Not sure, if its really a list or maybe the vertical navigation bar?

How to write a pl/sql query to trim/remove more than one character from string.
Like the itemfield is 'Profit CY' I want it to show as 'Profit' but only for itemfields that say 'Profit CY' in the column for remaining items in column such as 'Loss CY' should stay as it is.

DELETE FROM ALERT WHERE TRIM(CUST_CD)=TRIM('100350378');

I have created a function based index(FBI) with trim(header_date), but when i query the table by passing the hardcoded date, it is not working and i have to manually apply trim to get the result?
my query after applying FBI is
select * from abc where header_date = '21-JUN-11', no results are returned and when i apply trim to header_date it works fine .

I have two tables employee_master and employee_time. There could be situation that record from employee_master does not exist in employee_time.
create table employee_master(employee_id number, employee_name varchar2(100));
insert into employee_master values(1, 'employee 1');
insert into employee_master values(2, 'employee 2');
insert into employee_master values (3, 'employee 3');
create table employee_time(employee_id number, project_id number, project_type varchar2(20), time_date date, hours number)
insert into employee_time values(1, 100, 'Billable', '01-Oct-2010', 10);
insert into employee_time values(1, 200, 'Billable', '02-Oct-2010', 9);
insert into employee_time values(1, 210, 'Non Billable', '03-Oct-2010', 10);
insert into employee_time values(2, 100, 'Billable', '01-Oct-2010', 10);
insert into employee_time values(2, 200, 'Billable', '02-Oct-2010', 9);
The requirement is to show all the employees from employee_master and with total billable hours and non billable hours, if not exist, show zero.The output will be:
Employee_ID Employee_Name Total_Billable_Hours Total_Non_Billable
1 Employee1 19 10
2 Employee2 19 0
3 Employee3 0 0
The question is to write a Left outer join query or to write a PL/SQL function which can return total rows if Employee_ID is supplied to it as a parameter
Query 1:
Select Employee_ID, Employee_name, sum(Billable), sum(Non_Billable)
From
(
Select a.Employee_ID, a.employee_name,
decode(b.project_type, 'Billable', hours, 0) as Billable,
decode(b.project_type, 'Non Billable', Hours, 0) as Non_Billable
from employee_master a
left outer join employee_time b on a.Employee_ID=b.Employee_ID
)
Group by Employee_ID, Employee_Name
Query 2:
Select Employee_ID, Employee_Name, func_billable(Employee_ID) as Billable, func_non_billable(Employee_ID) as Non_Billable
From Employee_Master
Which query is good from the performance perspective? In real situation the employee_time is a very huge table.

sqlplus experts,
How do I update Table2(idno) with values of Table1(idno)? By the way there are other columns which i do not want to be touched. This is just to create a match parent-child table test data.
Example:
Table1
idno
===
100
101
102
103
Table2
idno
===
any no
any no
any no
any no
I want all idno values in Table2 to be identical with Table1. It can be any order as long as the value is 1 to 1. I just want it populated for test data purposes.

I am on 11g.
I need to remove the alpha characters from a string, leaving only numbers, but I am getting unexpected results:
SQL> SELECT TRANSLATE('3N', 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', NULL) a FROM DUAL;
A
-
I thought this would leave the 3 from the 3N, but it is returning an empty string. For my application, the string '3N' could be any length, will only contain letters and numbers, and the letters will always come at the end, but there could be more than one letter
VALID INPUT samples:
4
25
11F
361NG

read the data and write into the textfile. I have a target text file with one column in varchar2(8000) length size. Whenever i write into this textfile, after the first row entered, for example, the first row string is 'H2001', then it will automatically spacing 7995 spaces. What I want is, when i enter the second row, it will auto write into the file in next row without all the spaces in row 1. I had been tried using trim, rpad, substr. and still don't get the thing that i want.

So I basically need to remove the leading part of the string using the "_" underscore as the delimiter.
So I thought this would work, but no luck.

trim down the following sql to within 255 characters help:
select indate
from (
select case count(inputDate)
when 1 then inputdate
end as indate
from commLeaseBut5
[code]...
This sql is check a date field in the database for record which, if the date field is blank it should be a new record. Then the sql will assigned the current timestamp and stored to the new record. Otherwise, the sql will return the record timestamp for display.

I need few clarifications regarding oracle wallet.
db version: 11.2.0.3.2 (Enterprise Edition)
We have a requirement to run shell scripts calling stored procedures for specific activities, which are run on database server. We do not want to store passwords in shell scripts and decided to use Secure External Password Store for hiding passwords instead of os authentication method. need few clarifications on the below.
1) Currently, we are creating oracle wallet entry on db server and making modifications in sqlnet.ora file accordingly. Is it good to use like this or we should do this only on a client machine?
2) Do we need any licensing to use this option?
3) Any knows issues with using oracle wallet?
4) Can we use orapki for creating oracle wallet instead of mkstore?
5) Any knows issues we face during startup and shutdown of db activities?

We are on oracle 11.2.0.2 on Solaris 10. I dont have acces to the db server but connect to the db from the client side using sqlplus. though I have dba privilege (at oracle level) but no access to db server at os level. I also dont have access to enterprise manager console where such information is available.
I want to set up monitoring so that I can get a mail when the space falls below some threshold like say tablespace is 90% full. Is it possible to get mail from pl/sql script for example?

I have a simple shuttle:
1 Adam
2 Baker
3 Charlie
4 Delta
5 Echo
6 Foxtrot
Select Name D, UserID R from UserTable
The values are stored in a VARCHAR2 field MULTI_USER (for example 1:2:4:6) When I want to get the names back from the selected item, how do I reference the colon-separated items?
For example:
Select Name from UserTable
where UserID in (select MULTI_USER from MULTI_USER where MULTI_USER_ID = 1)
should return:
Adam
Baker
Delta
Foxtrot
