SQL & PL/SQL :: Getting Back Whole Record Then Picking 1 Column?
Jul 22, 2010
I want a function that'll execute a query and return the whole table record then i need to somehow pick a column in that record and return the data in that column
So like
function something(p_param varchar2)
return table_record
something('blah).employee_number
My Oracle procedure works on two parameters, file type and file name.
exec xml_trans.load_xml('OMG','Sample.xml');
First parameter is xml file type and second parameter is xml file name. XML file is generated by by a web service and keep in a particular location.
Now the requirement is my procedure should pick up the in parameters, once the xml file is generated and my procedure should be running as per schedule. I can execute the procedure in schedule but how can i pick the file name and pass to procedure as soon the xml file is generated?
One of our query is not using function based index, the required priv is granted to the user executing the query and also tables stats are gathered? what could be the reason for the query to not to pick the FBIndx? the table is a huge one having million of records, is it that CBO thinks that not picking FB indx is the best execution plan? let me know how can we make the query use the FB indx, also there is a restriction that we cannot force it using hints.
I have a requirement to list the data month wise dynamically where month data is also in the same table, hopefully the below posts should bring more clarity to my requirements.
I have to display a record in column format. I have tried doing it using COUNT & DECODE as in below script.
SELECT COUNT (DECODE (a1.application_status, 21, a1.ppid, NULL)) cnt_app21, COUNT (DECODE (a1.application_status, 22, a1.ppid, NULL)) cnt_app22 FROM (SELECT a.application_status application_status, a.ppid ppid FROM vp_recon_upload_dtls a, vp_ppid_upload_info b
[Code]...
This gives output as:-
cnt_app21 cnt_app21 3 1
The second query is little different from above as it has 2 more tables joined and more conditions than first query.
SELECT SUM (DECODE (a2.application_status, 21, a2.rate_amount, NULL)) sum_app21, SUM (DECODE (a2.application_status, 22, a2.rate_amount, NULL)) sum_app22 FROM (SELECT a.application_status application_status, d.rate_amount rate_amount FROM vp_recon_upload_dtls a,
[Code]....
Second query output is :-
SUM_APP21 SUM_APP21 222 111
My requirement is to display all the four values in one row as:-
I am trying to only display a column value one time for a record, not a static value. The value changes and there can be many values. I do not think grouping will work since the Date value is dynamic. I am using Oracle for Toad 10.5. There are 4 records with this test data.
select Date, Person, Language, Country from TableATableA Date Person Language Country 01/25/2013 James English 12/20/2012 James English US
earlier the query was running on same record group but i hav to delete some code so i did but after made such changes itreturns this error.but still query is correct i complied on toad.
The requirement is, the combination of col1,col2,col3 and col4 should always be unique, and wherever the col1, col2,col3 are same then col4 should be the sequence, starting from 1. Likewise the data should be updated back to the table.I'm able to do this using PL/SQL. Can I do the same using a single update statement?
I'm making a menu in my form, wherein it has FILE, TRANSACTION and REPORT. Under FILE it has BACK, and LOGOUT. In my back menu item, i want to go back to the previous block or previous module. I used previous_block but it's not working in some of my blocks.
I come from a world of MSSQL and have been thrown into doing some Oracle work. Great! Ok, moving on.. I work in an environment where I do not have direct access to the database tables that I need data from. As a workaround, I have been asked to create a stored procedure that will be loaded into our CRM system's production db once it goes through the internal "approval" process.Basically, I need to return a result set back to the client by calling a stored procedure.
Version 1 of this that was already in place was done with the following code.
procedure events_by_day (p_start_date IN OPERATION_LOG.DT%type, p_end_date IN OPERATION_LOG.DT%type, p_results OUT SYS_REFCURSOR) IS BEGIN OPEN p_results FOR
[code]....
Then the code is executed from the client side like so:
When we are running a query it is giving us the result based on the conditions .But to know what exactly is happening in the database when we are running a query against it and how finally it returns the result.
I have a 3 node RAC server on Windows Server 2008. Last week the hard drive went out on one of the nodes and I have had to rebuild as I could not recover anything.
I went through and deleted the old node and now I have just finished adding the new node back to my cluster via documentation. Once I created the new instance on that server DBCA attempted to start and it failed gaving me a crs error. I found out later that the other 2 nodes went down and the new one that did not start correctly was the only one up!! I went and stopped the new instance and restarted the first 2. The associated services did not start with the instance so I had to start each manually. The trace files show an ORA-29702 error with cluster group service and the instance being stopped on both of the existing nodes. No other error messages stood out.
Now I cannot get any crs services to start on that 3rd node even if I attempt to start manually. I have also tried stopping all and restarting and that does not work. I found another post on this forum from you and followed it. The ASM service was fine the entire time through all the logs and I don't know how to verify LMON in Windows but I didn't see any LMON errors in the alert log. Also, the voting disks are online. Each node has their own and they are mirrored. Where else to look?
here i have an question with oracle database backup strategy.my question is
how to backup my oracle database call DB11G without archived logs while the database is open for user activity and also this should be the base for an incremental backup strategy?
I am trying to generate a software that used VB as the front end and Oracle 10G as the back end. I have noticed that the date format is VB is : m/dd/yyyy whereas the date format in oracle is dd-mm-yyyy. Whenever i try to insert a tuple with either of the date formats, the program halts running and after a long time , i get a message saying a deadlock was encountered. I have never had any formal introduction to either of the two tools
We have a forms application in Forms 10g. We scan a document and gets it to a image item in the Form. Now, we need to pass this image to a 3rd party application (document mgt. system, ). They have given us a web-service for this. We have to convert the image to a BASE64 string and then invoke the web-service method and input it.
The, 3rd party application document management system will also send images as BASE64 strings through the web-service. We need to convert them back to a blob and put to an image item in the form so that it can be viewed by the end-user.
So, how can we convert a image item in form (as BLOB) to a base64 string and also do the reverse???

Today we reverted back our Virtual machine to the snapshot taken on 7/25. Sure enough it worked.When you revert back the snapshot, you are literally going back in time so that means the redo log sequence gets pushed back. So, we start back old log sequence number which is where we were on 7/25. The problem is that we took the RMAN today before the snapshot was taken, now that we reverted back to old date 7/25. Now what happens to the backup pieces that we took after 25th July to till date in RMAN? do I need to delete those backups which were in there in RMAN taken after 7/25?

There is table (VIN_TEMP) in my company database containing following records. It seems like this table should contain some greek language special chracter values instead of this weird data.
Client are reporting these records as invalid and requesting us to fix. As i investigated i found out, this table was created and loaded few year back. Client sent us one time files which we loaded into this table. I was able to find the code which was actually used to load this table, but unfortunately i was not able to find the raw files where we load this data from...
It seems like Previous Developer specified character set "UTF8" statement, in his sql loader script, to load this data. It seem those file contain some Greek language special character data which was not support by "UTF8" charater set and result in creating those invalid data. My Job is to fix these invalid records and convert them back to its original values which were present in the raw file. I tried to contact client and see if i can find out the raw files but no luck. I tried to use convert function as mention to convert this data from "UTF8" to our current character set format but no luck.
I have two Oracle databases (test1- 10gr2,test2 - 11gr2) on rhel 5.5. is it possible to find which particular oracle process belongs to which home from OS level. was trying to find which db processes are consuming more resources on my host.
I have a shells script which invokes a SQL file. However even with AUTOCOMMIT OFF and on SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK. Sqlplus fails to rollback.
My sql file has 3 lines 3 are correct and 1 is incorrect. For example: INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (24, 'ROUTING'); INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (25, 'ROUTING'); INSERT INTO TEST_ROUTING VALUES (26, 'ROUTING);
Lets say file is called 1.sql
My shell script invokes this SQL as follows: (Where $File1 = 1.sql)
$SQLPLUS_PATH/sqlplus -s /nolog <<-EOF>> ${LOGFILE} connect $DB_USER/$Password1@$Database1 SET AUTOCOMMIT OFF @$File1 WHENEVER SQLERROR EXIT ROLLBACK; EOF [code]......
So tried SET AUTOCOMMIT, tried SQLERROR ROLLBACK and tried few variations.
I created a tab canvas and changed the background color of one of the tabs. Now I am unable to change it back to the default color.
I tried entering "None" in the Background Color property and even tried keeping the field blank. But it keeps on prompting me to enter a color value. Now it is looking funny with all the tabs in the default color and only one tab in some different color.
