i have a given pl/sql program that first deletes records out of a table and afterwards inserts new rows. now for example 2 rows out of 10 have a foreign constraint and can not be deleted that easily anymore. so i delete the ones i am able to (with the where not exists clause).
now i want to update the records who have a foreign key constraint and the rest with a regular insert. how would i do this the easiest way. i thought i could use insert with a where clause!!
I use sqlplus in oracle (linux). I have a table and the string cell have long string . Like below :
CODEcolumn A Column B
A BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB .....................................BBBBBBBBBBB
So, I need to edit/update the row A and the value in Column B. But the string in Column B is so long and I only need to edit one character. IF I use update command , I need to type very long string and it is easy to wrong edit .

Assume that we have table Test with a column TestId and Status. This table is having 10,000 records. Now, we need to write a stored procedure that does the following:
1) Select top 10 rows whose "Status = NEW'
2) Update the selected top 10 rows with "Status = PROCESSING"
3) Return those top 10 rows.
Assuming there are hundreds of such requests coming to Oracle database, how can we make sure each request NEVER gets a duplicate record at any given point of time and how to fetch the records that have been updated individual request?
I have restored all datafile to new location (that is ASM) earlier it was on file system using set new name command (RMAN). Now when i'm trying to update control file with swicth command it is prompting error. Version is 11g R2.

we are running SAP application against oracle database. say, if I use brspace or brtools (from SAP side) to shutdown or startup database or collect stats, does this mean it not recommend to use oracle command to shutdown/start & collect stats?
I have a base table (Table A) block with multiple records displayed. I need to track audits to this underlying table in the following way:
If user updates a field in the block I want the pre-changed record's audit fields to be set and I need to create a copy of the record with the changed values. Basically any changes will result in the record being logically deleted, and a copy record created with the newly changed values.
Tried to implement in the block's pre-update trigger which will call a package to directly update Table A then Insert into Table A, then requery the block. Is there a clean and efficient way to do this?
UPDATE t_tt_hours a SET a.sak_request = ( SELECT b.sak_request FROM t_requests b, co c
[Code]...
The problem I am having is that it is updating all rows even when it is pulling back a null value for b.sak_request. I've tried adding b.sak_request is not null to the select statement like this:
UPDATE t_tt_hours a SET a.sak_request = ( SELECT b.sak_request FROM t_requests b, co c WHERE b.nam_eds_tracking_id = c.id_dir_track_eds
[Code]...
but it doesn't seem to make a difference. The reason I need to do this is that the difference between where it matches with a valid (non-null) value is 396 rows vs. 12,484 rows which is too time consuming to run on my page.
i want to create a trigger that will update a table when there is an insert or update.i can't across this error that i don't even know what it means "table %s.%s is mutating, trigger/function may not see it".
*Cause: A trigger (or a user defined plsql function that is referenced in this statement) attempted to look at (or modify) a table that was in the middle of being modified by the statement which fired it.
*Action: Rewrite the trigger (or function) so it does not read that table.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER set_date_end BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE OF issued ON shares_amount FOR EACH ROW DECLARE BEGIN INSERT INTO shares_amount(date_end) VALUES(SYSDATE); END set_date_end; /
i am reading the columns value from different table but i want to update it with single update statement. such as how to update multiple columns (50 columns) of table with single update statement .. is there any sql statement available i know it how to do with pl/sql.
insert into test_compound values ('user1','1',systimestamp); insert into test_compound values ('user2','2',systimestamp-4); insert into test_compound values ('user3','3',systimestamp-6);
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER trigger_test FOR UPDATE ON test_compound COMPOUND TRIGGER TYPE t_tab IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(50); l_tab t_tab := t_tab(); [code].......
When I execute :
update test_compound set last_updated_on=systimestamp where userid='user1' and app='1';
The trigger should update the first row and all the data from test_compound table where userid='user1'. Maybe the problem is that updating the same table inside the trigger is firing in a recursive way the trigger.
I have a column "empno" in EMP table and "deptno" in DEPT table . I want to update both the columns with single UPDATE statement. With out a creation of stored procedure or view(updating it through view).

Is pivot the right command to use? If so, how do I do this? Most pivot examples I've looked at use an aggregate like SUM, which is not really want I am trying to accomplish here.
I am facing a problem regarding the execute immediate command. I have created a procedure as given below
SQL> set echo on ; SQL> set serveroutput on; SQL> declare 2 l_var varchar2(50); 3 sqlstring varchar2(3000); 4 begin [code].......
In this procedure the execute immediate command shows error ( if i avoid exception).I have tried other syntax too of this command but it is showing error only.
I got to pull 30M data into local DB from a remote DB. As of now we have procedure to perform this task using an
Insert /*+append*/ table1 select * from rdb_view;
I observed using the copy command in sql plus has taken very less time than the procedure.Can we use the Copy command inside the PL/SQL block? I tried with dynamic SQL but It is not allowed I guess.
