Is it possible to substring an alias field?
I am looking to substring the following so that the age comes back as 2 digits rather than an indefinite number
months_between (c.fatt,b.birth_dt)/12 age
Im trying to extract, *THIS IS MY STRING* from *<YUVRAJ THIS IS MY SRTING YUVRAJ>* .
In this <YUVRAJ and YUVRAJ> is constant, need to remove which is being appended at begin and end for a set of strings.
I have two tables A and B. In table A there is a field which contains a string of 20 characters; this essentially holds 5 codes of 4 characters each.
Table B is a reference table. It holds the 4 character code and the description.
I am trying to run a select query to bring back the description of the code for the first 2 codes in table A but i am not sure how to bring back the descriptions! The below is what i am trying to achieve.
SELECT
TableA.ID,
SUBSTR(TableA.Code,1,4) Primary_Code,
[Code].....
I have a reference number of application number which is sent to 3 different address as outward number . for example application number is intimated to the office , the employee and the treasury. this number is generated as follows
P/11/10/133
P/11/10/133A
P/11/10/133B
in my outward report when i run it all three numbers are getting listed.
i want only P/11/10/133 to be listed and ignore the rest of the two. i tried to use SUBSTR(INOUT_NO,9), but it reads only from the left gives me only the number ie 133, 133A and 133B. i tried rtrim and ltrim but it only clears the extra space. how do i ignore the other two dispatch numbers.
I have a column transaction Number . It has the transaction number of goods sold.. Below is the sample.
1. PIT0120029015554492215851181828221018554492R06
2. XY1029201195J05
3. YJ1039201176J01
My Query :
I need to substr the transaction number which starts with PIT to susbst (trxno,1,12) .. and anything other than PIT i need full number without substr . But when i use the above code :" susbstr(trxno,1,12) ..": it will substr entire column,. Is there any way to substr only PIT and leave others,
DB:oracle 10g
declare Input VARCHAR(10) :='011000141'
declare rt StringOutput%rowtype;
begin
SELECT SUBSTR(Input , SumOfLength - ColLength + 1, ColLength) FinalOutput INTO rt FROM mytable ;
end;

I need to store the result to a temp table rt.
I've got this situation.
In a not normalized table loaded with data from an excel file, I have a column containing a long string with many carriage returns so that after each of them it begins a new string I have to manipulate. I mean, in the column PERSON I've got something like this:
PERSON
_______
Jonh
Taylor
Software developer
...
Of course I have to write a Pl/Sql procedure extracting each string and I know that each string ends with a carriage return chr(13)||chr(10)
I think I should use the INSTR built-in function but I it'd be useful whether some of you had something ready.
How to select a substring in oracle up to a more than one specific characterfor ex : 121.051^NP: FAMILY PRACTICE ( trim the values before ^ ) 121.051^*NP: FAMILY PRACTICE (trim the value before *). with below function I can only get rid of ^ , I want both the specific characters ^ and ^* to be removed at the same time.
SUBSTR(p.phys_sub_grp_2_desc,INSTR(p.phys_sub_grp_2_desc, '^') +1)
i have a column full name which has the name of customer in both English and Sanskrit alphabets. I need to susbtring only the English name and exclude the Sanskrit name .
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to select all the field from the table and want to put alias for only field i m just wondering is there any way to write a query something like
select *, emp as employee
from empMaster
here i want to display all the column but only with emp column i want to put alias.
why this query works fine:
SELECT Z.ZAJEZD_ID, Z.JMENO,
(
SELECT COUNT(ZAJEZD_ID)
FROM trasa T
WHERE T.ZAJEZD_ID = Z.ZAJEZD_ID
) AS POCET_ZASTAVEK
FROM zajezd Z
ORDER BY Z.JMENO
But when I try to use the alias to filter the results like this (note the WHERE part):
SELECT Z.ZAJEZD_ID, Z.JMENO,
(
SELECT COUNT(ZAJEZD_ID)
FROM trasa T
WHERE T.ZAJEZD_ID = Z.ZAJEZD_ID
) AS POCET_ZASTAVEK
[code]...
Then it throws an error message ORA-00904: Unknown Identifier for the column/alias POCET_ZASTAVEK?
I have the following query:
SELECT AGENCY, COUNT(*)
FROM (SELECT A.AGENCY,SUM(A.NUM_LOGIN)
FROM GOVAGENCY A
WHERE AGENCY = 'DOD1'
GROUP BY A.AGENCY
[code].......
The results are:
AGECNY COUNT(*)
-------- -----------
DOD1 1
DOD2 1
2
The rollup value has a blank label instead I want to have a label to the rollup result also ex:
AGENCY COUNT(*)
--------- -----------
DOD1 1
DOD2 1
DEPT. OF DEFENSE 2
I have a need to use the Alias name of a column within the same select statement( because I can't have another select statement using the first select as table - BO tool limitation).
Ex:
Select dept_id, agency, sum(quantity) as "sum_qty"
where sum_qty > 500;
Currently oracle won't allow using alias name Sum_qty in the same select statement. Is there a way to use alias within the same select statement?
Is there any way through which we can put forth a condition on Alias name instead of column name in a table.
For example: Select emp_name "Employee Name" fom dual where emp_id is not null;
Instead can there be a workaround so I can put "Employee Name" in where clause?
In my Oracle 9i Schema, I have two tables:
Table One
pocOne pocTwo
2 3
2 4
1 2
Table Two
TableTwoId Name
1 Jones
2 Smith
3 Edwards
4 Camden
My SQL to fetch all records with Smith works great:
select Name from TableTwo
Inner Join TableOne
on TableTwo.TableTwoId in (TableOne.pocOne, TableOne.pocTwo)
where Name = 'Smith'
Now I need to create an alias for the Name field. Here is my attempt:
select myAliasName from TableTwo
Inner Join TableOne
on TableTwo.TableTwoId in (TableOne.pocOne, TableOne.pocTwo),
(select Name as myAliasName from TableTwo)
where myAliasName = 'Smith'
This attempt pulls up all the records instead of just Smith records. How I can create an alias for the Name field in my above query?
My OTN account handle shows the number but till yesterday it was showing the Alias Name "ranit B".

We have a query which uses start by and connect with method. this query works fine in our earlier version 10. But when we migrated to 11g, we are facing problem with the query.
Scenario 1:
------------
There is a table in Schema 1 and created a view for the same.
Table : create table alias_test1 ( A varchar2(10),B varchar(10),C varchar2(20),D varchar2(40), E varchar2(10),F number(1));
View: create or replace view alias_vw1
as select A, B,C,D, E,F from alias_test1
Values :
Insert into A.ALIAS_TEST1 (A, B, C, D, E, F)
Values ('Block1', '136', 'TOTBANK', 'Total Bank', ' ', 1);
Insert into A.ALIAS_TEST1 (A, B, C, D, E, F)
Values ('Block2', '136', 'PPRSEGHKB', 'HKB', 'TOTBANK', 2);
Now in the schema B, created a synonym for the view to access. create synonym alias_vw1 for alias_vw1@link.world
Query :
select srl_no,cde,pdesc,lvl,is_leaf,hcy
from( select srl_no,
cde, pdesc, level lvl,
connect_by_isleaf is_leaf,
Ltrim(replace(sys_connect_by_path (rpad(Trim(cde),19,' '),'~'),'~',' ')) hcy
[code]...
In a query can we have the same alias for more than 1 table as in the following example
Select C.ContractNum, B.Billnum, B.Billamt,A.
From Contractmaster C,
Billdetails B,
Address A,
Currencymaster c,
Where B.billtype = 1
and C.Contractnum = B.Contractnum
and C.customerref = A.Customerref
and c.currencycode ='EUR'
In the above query, Table Contractmaster has an alias C --in capitals while table Currencymaster has an alias c - in small caps ...
Is this possible in Oracle 11g ? Also i found that the table Currencymaster has no Join conditions I executed the query, without any errors!

I am New to Apex. Im using Apex Version 4.2.
I have a tab named APPROPRIATIONS it has 10 fields. Among which is PROJECT NUMBER, AUTHORIZAION DATE (CALENDER TYPE POPUP), And FUNDS CHECK FLAG.
The Scenario is depending upon PROJECT NUMBER the Fields are Populated including FUNDS CHECK FLAG .
But the AUTHORIZAION DATE is a MANDATORY field has to be filled by User
The Requirement is to make AUTHORIZAION DATE as MANDATORY only when the FUNDS CHECK FLAG is *"BLANK "* or *“Y”*
If the FUNDS CHECK FLAG is *“N”* then the AUTHORIZAION DATE to be made OPTIONAL.
During a duplicate process to a new database name, rman crashed after the restore but before the switch datafile all.So now, we have under ASM the data files under the correct (new) diskgroup but v$datafile contains the previous names (and so diskgroup) and v$datafile_header is empty. RMAN is completly lost, our solution is to manually rename each file under SQL*Plus using ALTER DATABASE RENAME FILE. Unfortunately, we are using or migrating to OMF, so file names are meaningless and we are unable to associate ASM files with database files.
Any way (query or anything else) to associate the ASM files to the database files. Here's an abstract of what we have for one (small) tablespace:
ASMCMD [+ORAXQG1_L136_DG1/ORAXPG1/DATAFILE] > ls -l N47CAW*

View 6 Replies View RelatedI have bills and payments for a customer, a customer may make many payments against 1 bill. I want to figure out the time taken from bill issue date to the time the balance of the customer falls to less then 10% of the most recent bill.I have managed to compute the running balance for the customer
So something like:
DATE AMT BILL_AMT BILL_DATE BALANCE
6-Oct-11 38533 38533 6-Oct-11 38533
20-Sep-12 -6000 0
6-Dec-11 78552 78552 6-Dec-11 78552
[code]....
But I need to know when the running balance falls beneath 10% of the previous bill.
I thought a way to do this would be to keep the same bill amount in the BILL_AMT column until the BILL_AMT is not null which means that a new bill has been issued.
I can't use LAG because the number of records I am going back by increases by 1 for each row where the BILL_AMT is null.I also can't use a running total because I don't want the total for all of the records for the customer, just the total (i.e. the bill amount and all intervening nulls (which would be the bill amount)) since the last bill?
i.e. how can I keep the same value in a field as long as the values in that field are null and then adopt a new value when there is a non-null value?
How to delete one particular field value in a row?
Constraint: There should be no null value or zero instead of deleted value. Other values remain unchanged.
