my column type is NUMBER(10,0) ,it accept the input value from text field I using TO_NUMBER(?) to insert value into table, is the a way to handle if the input is 'aaaaaaaaaa' not digit?
I have one hirarchical query which return the parent to child hirarch level data. it has 11 level child data. i want to create column based on number of child in hirarchy. though i know it is 11 but it can change also.Is there any way i can create the column dynamically
We are using Oracle 11g with Apex 3.2 on AIX. We are reporting data from customer satisfaction surveys. I'm using the following sql to create my report
<code>select * from( select month,'Overall Satisfaction' as q_group, 1 as srt,Overall Satisfaction,site, case when count(*) < 31 then '*' else round((sum(ttos)/count(*))*100,0)||'/'|round((sum(bfos)/count(*))*100,0)||'/'||count(*) end ospct from v_XXX_report a,(select distinct month_dt month from v_XXX_report) b where Overall_Satisfaction is not null and year_dt = 2012
[Code]....
The problem is that site is not allways present and sometimes I have other variables in addition to site. This creates a situation where the month columns will not allways appear at the same column number. For example, When I run this query as is then the "JAN" column is Col3 (first column is a break, col2 is not shown). When I run this query without site then "JAN" is the second column. I would like to create column links for the "JAN" - "DEC" columns but not for any other columns.
Another issue - in the column link creation screen I can create up to 3 variables that I can pass to the next page. Since my query is a pivot I'm uncertain how to pass the column heading or the row value (for col2)
ie Overall Satisfaction JAN FEB MAR APR MAY ... Overall Satisfaction 12/12/200 12/12/210 12/12/220 12/12/230 12/12/240... Recommend 12/12/200 12/12/210 12/12/220 12/12/230 12/12/240... etc.
So if I clicked on the values at Recommend:FEB how can I get "Recommend" and "FEB" into variables that I can use on the next page? I've tried #column_name#, #month#, #q_name# and #APEX_APPLICATION.G_F10# but no luck.
I have a table where i have description column which free text column, the data in description column is seperated and i want to corvert 1 row data in multiple rows dependeing on the number of words.
eg
id description 78664 Pumps Alarm from CAMS RTU154
In the above example this column has 5 word so i want data in 5 rows like below
78664 Pumps 78664 Alarm 78664 from 78664 CAMS 78664 RTU154
This column data can be varied from 1 to any number of words.
is there some performance/access difference between a bitmap index on a number column and char(1) column? Both columns are not null with a default value.My application has a querie like this:
If I create a bitmap index on column "column_char", the access plan is not changed. But changing the column datatype to number(1) and obviously the values, the index is accessed and the cost decreases.This table has 4.000.000 rows. Oracle 11.2.0.2SO
I have a partitioned table with ~50 million rows that was setup with a number(10) instead of a date column. All the data in the table is ALWATS in this format YYYYMMDD
CREATE TABLE T1.monthly ( SEQ_NUM NUMBER(10) NOT NULL, DAY_DK NUMBER(10) NOT NULL ) TABLESPACE USERS PCTUSED 0 PCTFREE 10 [code]........
When I use the exchange partition method the parition is able to move the data from "monthly" table to "mth" table.
desc t1.mth; ### my temorary table Name Null? Type ----------------------------------------- -------- ---------------------------- SEQ_NUM NUMBER(10) DAY_DK NUMBER(10)
Than when I try to alter my temp table "mth". I get an error table must be empty to change column types.
alter table n546830.mth modify (DAY_DK date);
Next I tried making my temporary table "mth" a date column. When I an the exchange partition command I get the following error:
alter table t1.monthly exchange partition DEC_2012 with table t1.mth without validation; alter table n546830.monthly exchange partition DEC_2012 with table n546830.mth without validation * ERROR at line 1: ORA-14097: column type or size mismatch in ALTER TABLE EXCHANGE PARTITION
Method I can use to convert a number(10) to date column and keep the information in a table. Note, I don't care about HH:MM:SS as I never had that information to begin with and would be happy to set that part of the date column to all zeroes "00:00:00"
In chapter 17 of the 'Oracle Database 10g, The Complete Reference' it says "You can increase or decrease the number of decimal places in a NUMBER column at any time". When trying to modify a column from NUMBER(38) to NUMBER(38,3) I get the ORA-01440 error. Is there a way around this when you have the maximum number of digits (precision = 38).
I have a column defined as Number( 8 ) which is supposed to have date values. I would like to check if all the rows in that table have valid dates. We could use to_date(coulmn_name, 'YYYYMMDD') and catch the rownums for error conditions using pl/sql. I would like to know if we could just do it using sql only and return the row numbers for those that are invalid dates?
I want update col1 whis is null to max(col1) ++ in a row, order by cr_date like 1,1,20110102 2,2,20110101 3,null,20110105 => 3,5,20110105 because this row is after 20110103 4,3,20110104 5,null,20110103 => 5,4,20110103 because this row is before 20110105
update test_table set col1 = (select max(col1) from test_table) + rownum where col1 is null;

The M column is used to count the total number of occurrences of a SLOT. Now, as for the N field, this is used to count the occurrence of the SLOT. In my example for the SLOT TRALTEST43S1, it has three occurrences so M will be 3. Why 3, is because of the WIPDATAVALUE. The WIPDATAVALUE of TRALTEST43S1 is 1-2 and 3. 1-2 WIPDATAVALUE signifies two occurrences (one to two) and 3 signifies only one occurrence. As for N, it should just count the number of occurrence. To further explain, see below:
WIPDATAVALUE SLOT N M 1-2 TRALTEST43S1 1 3 -> First occurrence in the total of 3 1-2 TRALTEST43S1 2 3 -> Second occurrence in the total of 3 3 TRALTEST43S1 3 3 -> Third occurrence in the total of 3 4-6 TRALTEST43S2 1 4 -> First occurrence in the total of 4 4-6 TRALTEST43S2 2 4 -> Second occurrence in the total of 4 4-6 TRALTEST43S2 3 4 -> Third occurrence in the total of 4 7 TRALTEST43S12 4 4 -> Fourth occurrence in the total of 4
This is the query that I have so far:
SELECT DISTINCT WIPDATAVALUE, SLOT , LEVEL AS n , m FROM ( SELECT WIPDATAVALUE , SLOT , (dulo - una) + 1 AS m [code]....
I think that my current query is basing its M and N results on WIPDATAVALUE and not the SLOT that is why I get the wrong output. I have also tried to use the WITH Statement and it works well but unfortunately, our system cant accept subquery factoring.
I want to decrease the size of testid column of number datatype in my "test" named table from size 20 to 15 and the data of maximum size is of 10 digits. but oracle throws an error "ORA-01440: column to be modified must be empty to decrease precision or scale". i cant understand why it is happening?
what is the reason behind it even though new size is maximum than the maximum size of existing data. but when i decrease the size of "varchar2" then oracle does not through any error.
here on your forum but has been following several threads ever since.So anyway here is the thing, I have a query that should return count the number of rows depending on the value of SLOT. Something like this:
As you can see above, on the SLOT TRALTEST43S1, there are three occurrences so M (Total number of occurrences) should be three and that column N should count it. Same goes with the SLOT TRALTEST43S2. This is the query that I have so far:
SELECT DISTINCT WIPDATAVALUE, SLOT , LEVEL AS n , m FROM ( [code]...
I think that my current query is basing its M and N results on WIPDATAVALUE and not the SLOT that is why I get the wrong output. I have also tried to use the WITH Statement and it works well but unfortunately, our system cant accept subquery factoring.
I have table customer which contains a column CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME
CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(50)
What will be sql statement to add a constraint on the CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME column of the CUSTOMERS table so that the value inserted in the column does not have numbers ?
I need a generic query to generate total # of records for each table in a schema, total # of records that are not null for each column in the table, and total # of records that are null for each of those columns in those tables.
ex:
the output should look like this.
owner schema table_name total# recs in the table, column_name, ------ ------ ---------- ------------------------- -----------
# of records not null # of records null ---------------------- --------------------
I need to create a composite unique index on varchar2, number and CLOB column. I haven't used such index before that have the CLOB column indexing. I found the below link related to CLOB indexing...
[URL]......
Links from where I can get related info. Also I would like to know the impact of such index on performance. I have to store and process around 50 million records in such a way, will it be beneficial to use this index?
Does the column V$SQL.CHILD_NUMBER related on number of current cursor only ?

Recently I am facing a problem while working with Oracle reports 2.5.
My requirement is: there is a report in which there are 5 columns right now. Now what i want is, whenever a condition will satisfy , a new column should be also display in that report otherwise it must be stay as it is.
Previously : a b c d Now if a=1 : a b z c d else a b c d where a,b,c,d,z are columns.
My requirement is to concatenate two column values and place them in a new column.I have done it using self join but it limits the purpose,meaning when I have more than 2 values for grouped columns then it won't work.How to make this dynamic,so that for any number of columns grouped,I can concatenate.
SELECT a.co_nm, a.mnfst_nr, a.mnfst_qty, a.mnfst_nr || ':' || a.mnfst_qty || ';' || b.mnfst_nr || ':' || b.mnfst_qty FROM vw_acao_critical a JOIN vw_acao_critical b ON a.co_nm = b.co_nm AND a.mnfst_nr = b.mnfst_nr [code]......
What will be the case when I need to concatenate for more number of values.
like when co_nm has three bahs and manfst_nr and manfst_qty has 3 values for each for bah.and if three are having same_mnfst nr then I should use something dynamic.how to achieve this.
Now i have a problem which i am facing for the first time. The problem is:
I have created a table test1 with two column of number data type and the column witdth is 25. Then enter the data but when i select the recrod it does not display the column data as it was entered. SQL> create table test1 2 ( 3 startno number(25), 4 endno number(25) 5 );
