SQL & PL/SQL :: How To Add A CHECK CONSTRAINT To Compare Info In 2 Tables
Jan 27, 2011
I need to alter a table to check that the data in a column is contained in a similar column in another table.
I have a STORES table and a STORE_REP table. Both tables have a column REP_ID.
I need to add a CHECK constraint into the STORES table to make sure that the info entered into its REP_ID column matches an entry in the STORE_REP table.
Both have a NUMBER(5) data type.
Will it make any difference if the REP_ID column in the STORE_REP table was originally created with a VARCHAR2(5) data type and was later converted to NUMBER(5), while the REP_ID column in the STORES table was created as NUMBER(5) when that table was created?
How can I modify the check constraint without dropping the already existing check constraint.
Example: alter table table_1 add constraint const_chk check (ATTRIBUTE7 in ('READ','UNREAD');
Want to add some TENTATIVE value for the already existing one. I could do that by dropping the constraint
ALTER TABLE table_1 DROP CONSTRAINT const_chk and modifying it later as alter table table_1 add constraint const_chk check (ATTRIBUTE7 in ('READ','UNREAD','TENTATIVE');
Is it possible to do that with out dropping the constraint?
CREATE TABLE RMD_2 ( "RMD_ID" NUMBER(10,0) NOT NULL ENABLE, "ABB" VARCHAR2(16 BYTE), "ACT_IND" VARCHAR2(1 BYTE) NOT NULL DISABLE, CONSTRAINT "RMD_2_C1" CHECK (act_ind IN ('Y', 'N')) ENABLE )
for column ACT_IND their is a check constraint RMD_2_C1 it should only accept either Y or N.
but, when ever i am inserting other values other than Y or N it is accepting it should not accept and it should have to give error message ORA-02293- : check constraint violated.
but it is not happening,it is accepting all other values even NULL value also.my requirement is this column should only accept either Y or N and it should not accept other values.
I am using the below query to show the difference of data between two tables using minus operator.
teh result is correct, but is there a way can it show with a flag with new rows and updated rows something like "N" for new row and "U" for updated row.
In the below code, do I need the 'NOT NULL' after the 'state char(2)'? I am guessing that I do not need it since I have the CHECK constraint on the column.
CREATE TABLE employee( id PRIMARY KEY, first varchar(20) NOT NULL, middle varchar(20), [code]....
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 ?
1) Sal_master structure is voc_no varchar2(7),voc_date date
2) sal_detail structure is voc_no varchar2(7),item_code varchar2(10),quantity number(10,2)
3). delivery_master structure is voc_no varchar2(7),voc_date date;
4) delivery_detail structure is voc_no varchar2(7),item_code varchar2(10),quantity number(10,2)
I want to compare these four tables i have insert 10 rows in sal_master and sal_detail tables and 5 transaction in delivery tables how to compares 10 records of sal_master,detail with delivery_master and detail if not exist in delivery_master and detail tables then display only sal_master,detail records for example
Voc_no Sale Qty Deliver Qty Remaining Qty
S000075 10 5 5 if data not found from delivery master and detail then answer must be S000075 10 0 10
I have to compare 2 tables on a columns's value.The 2 tables have same column as Regn_no.I just need to have the result in True Or False from a Query if the particular value of Regn_no is found in both the tables.
Temporarily I using a bit different and not good query which is as follows:
select count(*) from tab1 where regn_no in (select regn_no from tab2) and regn_no = 'UP78AN7890';
A {op_id, op_name, .} B {b_id, op_id, supplier_id, .} C {c_id, op_id, op_id2, supplier_id, relation, .}
Table B and C have op_id which is foreign key from table A. In table A op_id is primary key, in table B b_id is primary key and in table C c_id is primary key. In table B supplier_id and op_id may have duplicate records. Now I want to add constraint so that if I delete records from Table B for op_id and if a relationship record exists for op_id in table C then it should not allow me to delete. Is it possible through referential integrity constraint ?
i wanted to compare a date in one of my tables to sysdate. I have a table reservation and a field in it is Date Reserved From, i wanted to compare this to sysdate and returned the results
I am working in a reporting project.We have different environments.After migration of data base script from one server to another we always need to crosscheck whether newly added columns have been properly migrated or not.
any database script to address the same thing. Last but not the least we have servers with TNS entries. how we can connect to different server while present in one specific server.
Desc Table A (account) Account1_id Account2_id name, empid
Table B (Bill ) BillNo Advertiserid agencyid total vvalue
I need to pick up total value from table B where the unique combination of advertiser-Agency id is the same as the given account1_id -Account2_id combination in table A for each employee id.
In other words my output should be like
Empid | Account_id (should be same as advertiserid)| Account2_id (same as agencyid) | sum(total_value) for this adv-agency combination.....
objective: Get the total value from table B for each unique account1-account2 combination (advertiser-agency in other words) .
I am not sure if I should use a correlated subquery or how to handle the situation....Right now I am just checking the two columns separately like this:
select.......from a,b where b.advertiser_id = a.account1_id and b.agencyid = b.account2id
Is it correct to do so? I have a feeling that I am missing something if I join them separately like this.
i want to get table name, constraint name, constraint type with join processes in string type. this is what i want: alter table tablename add constraint constraintname constrainttype(columnname)
i know the procedure "DBMS_SQL.DESCRIBE_COLUMNS" and the example,the example uses the "dbms_sql.open_cursor",not the ref cursor. so how to get the information of ref cursor by using describe_columns? or how to get the information of ref cursor by other?
At my Workplace we have a large Orcle 11g Database with 30 different tables for production control issues.I try to get a couple of different information from the database, so i started with SQL Query's, but for this problem i was not able to write an working query.
In this case i have 2 tables:
Table 1: ID ;ORDER_NR ;DESCRIPTION ;CREATE_DATE 1 ;A500236 ;CLEAN HOUSE ;02/20/2012 2 ;A623555 ;REPAIR CAR ;01/10/2012 3 ;A866944 ;MAINTAIN EQUIPMENT ;02/11/2012
And the result of my Query should look like this: ORDER_NR;DESCRIPTION ;CREATE_DATE;A_STAT_AGE;R_STAT_AGE;U_STAT_AGE A500236;CLEAN HOUSE ;02/20/2012 ;5 ;3 ;1 A623555;REPAIR CAR ;01/10/2012 ;42 ;39 ;38 A866944;MAINTAIN EQUIPMENT ;02/11/2012 ;15 ;4 ;3
The age of my query result should be calculated from the Create date of the Order.I want to know 2 things, one is how old was the Order when they reached that status A, R and U.The second this ist, how long did the order remain on the stat A,R and U (and if possible all other status also)It could happend that not each order reaches each status, so it ca go directly from A to you in this case i want display a wildcard in this row/column
For each keeper, show the number of cages cleaned by the keeper, show the average number of animals in the cages cleaned by the keeper and the total cost of the cages cleaned by the keeper."
The data table is shown on the picture.i75.photobucket. com /albums/i297/lovebipbo/SIT103.jpg.. I can learn and do some similar task myself
How do I get my list of user session info? I thought there was a user_session_parameter view or something? Basically, I did an ALTER SESSION ... and want to verify it was set correctly.

Im trying to generate a member procedure that allows the user to manual enter the required information via substitution variables. The manual INSERT INTO statements work but I cant seem to get it to work within a procedure.
Here is the code for the type, table andstandard insert:
CREATE TYPE toy_typ AS OBJECT (toy_id NUMBER ( 5), toy_name VARCHAR2 (20), toy_cost NUMBER ( 4),
[code]...
the procedure complies but i get a warning error. When i also try to execute the code with either set values or substitutions i get either not enough or to many values error.
I want to extract all OEM Job schedule information so that we can recreate the jobs on a different OEM should the need arise; e.g. Our network A OEM grid control system fails completely.We decide to connect all databases on network A to an OEM grid control system on Network B. Once all agents are switched over to network B we need to recreate and schedule all the OEM jobs that were running from the OEM on A to the new OEM.
Any sql that will get the job info from sysman.mgmt_jobs (and related tables) which I can run on a regular basis OR how to merge the mgmt_job.. tables from one oem into a second oem without corrupting the data already in the second oem ?
I am having a little trouble retrieving info from my mock database.
here are my definitions: response.setHeader("pragma", "no-cache"); response.setHeader("Cache-control", "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate"); response.setHeader("Expires", "01 Apr 1995 01:10:10 GMT"); response.addHeader("Cache-Control", "post-check=0, pre-check=0");

and here is my select statement. ds = (DataSource) context.lookup(dSource); conn = ds.getConnection(); stmt = conn.prepareStatement("select add_date, campus, name, leader from TABLENAME where id = ? order by xbbo_add_date"); stmt.setString(1, colleagueID); result = stmt.executeQuery();
***basically I am trying to retrieve this info from my db, and list it out in a HTML table. I am writing this on a JSP page. Also, where i want the retrieved data listed, I am using for ex: <%=name%>
If we insert a row in a database table then the new row stays at database buffer cache in SGA (until commit), right?. The target table is not affected (before commit). The new row is saved after commit.
I saw a concepts at Sybex oracle 10g oca book (Page 406) as follows:
" INSERT statements use little space in an undo segment; only the pointer to the new row is stored in the undo tablespace. To undo an INSERT statement, the pointer locates the new row and deletes it from the table if the transaction is rolled back. "
My question is If the row is not saved at table before commit, if we issue rollback then how oracle delete from table? I think the new row is deleted from database buffer cache in SGA.
