SQL & PL/SQL :: Loop Over Recordsets In Update Tables
Jan 21, 2011
I can't seem to get away from writing php scripts to handle the update. I want to learn to use procedures more. What I have is a table like this:
courses(
id number(16) pk,
Division_title varchar2(100),
department_title varchar2(100)
I also have a temp table where I upload updated data into from time to time it looks like this
load_updates_courses(
id number(16) pk,
div_desc varchar2(100),
dep_desc varchar2(100)
)
Currently when I need to update the courses table, I write a php script to do the update. But what I really would like to do is write a procedure I could call to handle this.
I figured I need to loop over the recordsets in the update tables then do a update but I can't figure out how to get started with the plsql.
I want to update column in table 1 based on a substraction of two column, one from the same table and the other from different table. Then update the result of substraction in table 1. Number of rows in two tables are different.
--for r in (( select (table2.y - table1.y as x from table1, table2 where table1.x = c and table2,.x = m)) declare i number := 1; c number ; m number;
a project I'm working on. I normally work in SQL Server, so I'm a little stuck on this one.
I have a temp table (tmp_stack) with four columns:
Floor [varchar] Unit [varchar] Block [number] BlockStart [number] BlockEnd [number]
BlockStart and BlockEnd are currently NULL. What I need to do is loop through the table for each Floor and update BlockStart and BlockEnd for each Unit depending on how many blocks they use and how many have been used by prior units on that floor.
For example:
There are three units on Floor #1: 1A, 1B, and 1C. 1A = 5 blocks 1B = 3 blocks 1C = 2 blocks
For 1A, BlockStart should = 1 and BlockEnd should = 5 For 1B, BlockStart should = 6 and BlockEnd should = 8 For 1C, BlockStart should = 9 and BlockEnd should = 10
And everything should reset back to the beginning on successive floors.
In T-SQL, I would use a cursor, and I assume I need to do the same kind of thing in Oracle, but I can't figure out the syntax.
Can this be optimized, in dev and Ist we didn't realize since 1000 rows were there, but in PERF since 2 mil rows are there this is taking a long time,
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON DECLARE counter number := 0; CURSOR insertValues IS select roleid, productcode, functioncode, typecode, restrictiontype, value1 from restrictions where actionmode = 'INSERT';
[code]...
can this be done in a single update since Selects /Updates are happening on same table
I am trying to write an Update that really frustrates me because it won't work for one reason or another.The situation is that I have two tables for customer information, t1 with the names of the customer and t2 with the address.These two can be joined via a client_id.
Now I have a third table t3 with the name and address of potential customers. I want to find out if some of them are already known to me so that I can update the client_id from table t1 or t2 into t3.
I have to join firstname, lastname from t3 to firstname, lastname from t1 and street, zip, city from t3 to street, zip, city from t2 and client_id from t1 to t2. Additional there is the problem that there can be more than one result so I have to update one of the found client_ids per name/address into t3.I am no expert to PL/SQL, I just know what SQL works in Access and that is:
UPDATE (t3 INNER JOIN t1 ON (t3.firstname= t1.firstname) AND (t3.lastname = t1.lastname)) INNER JOIN t2 ON (t3.city = t2.city) AND (t3.zip = t2.zip) AND (t3.street = t2.street) AND (t1.client_id = t2.client_id) SET t3.client_id = t1.client_id;
I am trying to write an update using two tables, one table contains the list of updates to be applied, and the second contains the old data. I have a working solution but I was wondering if there might be some other better way to accomplish this task.
CREATE TABLE foo ( foo_id NUMBER, foo_val NUMBER ); CREATE TABLE foo_change ( foo_id NUMBER, foo_val NUMBER [code]...
The update works, but I thought there may be a better way I just don't know about.
I have a table called test_renames that has two columns(new_name and old_name) and one row with the following values
NEW_NAME OLD_NAME DRUG10 DRUG1
I have another table called SH0 that has 10,000 rows and the column of interest is called ITEM1. ITEM 1 contains the following distinct drug names:
DRUG1,DRUG2,DRUG3,DRUG4,DRUG5
Each DRUG has multiple rows associated with it.
I need to only update rows for DRUG1 and set the name from DRUG1 to DRUG10 for all rows where ITEM1 is DRUG1.
However I need to write this update statement by joining with the values in the test_renames table that contains the NEW_NAME and the OLD_NAME.
DRUG1 has 2,000 rows associated with it. The following SQL statement gives me 2,000 rows
(SELECT NVL(CHG.NEW_NAME, SH.ITEM1) FROM test_renames CHG,sh0 sh WHERE UPPER(SH.ITEM1) = UPPER(CHG.OLD_NAME) AND UPPER(SH.ITEM1) IN (SELECT UPPER(OLD_NAME) from test_renames))
However when I run the following update statement, it appears that the SQL query updates all the 10,000 rows in the table instead of just touching the 2,000 rows for DRUG1. It does change all the rows for DRUG1 to DRUG10, but all the other ITEM1 values become null. What I need from the update statement is only chnage the rows for DRUG1 to DRUG10 and leave the other rows that I associated with DRUG2, DRUG3 etc. Here is my update statement.
UPDATE SH0 SH SET ITEM1 = (SELECT NVL(CHG.NEW_NAME, SH.ITEM1) FROM test_renames CHG WHERE UPPER(SH.ITEM1) = UPPER(CHG.OLD_NAME) AND UPPER(SH.ITEM1) IN (SELECT UPPER(OLD_NAME) from test_renames))
This update statement touches all 10,000 rows. I am looking to update only the relevant 2,000 rows for DRUG1.
I am issuing an update statement in which I am using multiple tables it is giving me an error " set keyword missing"
update E_CONT_DETAIL_NUMB_VALUE ecdnv, y_obj_category yoc, t_contact tc set ecdnv.ContTPRecCount = 1000 where tc.default_category_id = (select primary_key from y_ojb_category where tree_position = 'CONT') and ecdnv.detail_field_id=tc.default_category_id;

I have to write a "after update trigger". Here, i have to update the stock table by other inventory tables (by complex query). I have written trigger below. how to make it correct?
create or replace trigger trg_stk_upd_pur after update on O_STOCK_EFFECTS REFERENCING NEW AS new OLD AS old FOR EACH ROW
I want to read 1 table. If the date is less than today, I want to update 4 other tables. I only want to do this update once a day.
While the 4 other tables are being updated, I want the other web users to pause for the update while this procedure runs.
Is there a better way to do this?
Here is what I have:
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST_TODAY2 AS -- to create the table -- create table test_today(updated_date date); -- insert into test_today(updated_date) values (sysdate-1); -- select * from test_today; cursor daily_update_cur is select updated_date from test_today for update of updated_date;

We have to update a single column data in about 10 tables which has child/parent table relations, pk/fk constraints.. The column that we are updating is a part of primary key in half of the tables and part of foreign key in the other half tables.. I'm thinking of disabling all the foreign key constraints in the tables then update the column data then enable the foreign key constraints in these tables.
I am trying to update multiple columns from one table based on the results of another table So I have 3 tables as follows
HISTORYSUMM_SNAPADM_CHOICE My SQL code is loosely SELECT SUM(H.HIS1), SS.SNAP1, AC.ADM1FROMHISTORY H, SUMM_SNAP SS,ADM_CHOICE ACWHERE H.HIS2=SS.SNAP2AND SS.SNAP3=AC.ADM2GROUP BY SS.SNAP1, AC.ADM1
This works, and I am able to SUM the column as I need with the right numbers. I altered the SUMM_SNAP table and now I want this summarized column to be in the table I tried using UPDATE, but there is no FROM clause to let me do the table join/group by
UPDATE SUMM_SNAPSET SUMM_SNAP.SNAP3=SUM(H.HIS1)FROMHISTORY H, SUMM_SNAP SS,ADM_CHOICE AC WHERE H.HIS2=SS.SNAP2AND SS.SNAP3=AC.ADM2 GROUP BY SS.SNAP1, AC.ADM1
The above is obviously wrong - but just trying to show whatI was thinking What would be the best method to get the numbers from the SUM into a table?
“AUDIT DELETE ANY TABLE BY <username> BY ACCESS” or “AUDIT UPDATE ANY TABLE<username> BY ACCESS”
enable audit for delete and updates for given username/schema. I want to enable auditing on delete and update on my entire database.
Why? And have we tested it in our any of existing setup? I am thinking of “Trigger after delete” but again this logic gets struck at individual tables. It do not work simply once and all for complete database/all users/all schemas
i have two tables test1 and test2. i want to update the column(DEPT_DSCR) of both the tables TEST1 and TEST2 using select for update and current of...using cursor.
I have a code written as follows :
DECLARE v_mydept1 TEST1.DEPT_CD%TYPE; v_mydept2 TEST2.DEPT_CD%TYPE; CURSOR C1 IS SELECT TEST1.DEPT_CD,TEST2.DEPT_CD FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE TEST1.DEPT_CD = TEST2.DEPT_CD AND TEST1.DEPT_CD = 'AA' FOR UPDATE OF TEST1.DEPT_DSCR,TEST2.DEPT_DSCR; [code].......
The above code when run says that it runs successfully. But it does not updates the desired columns[DEPT_DSCR].
It only works when we want to update single or multiple columns of same table...i.e. by providing these columns after "FOR UPDATE OF" I am not sure what is the exact problem when we want to update multiple columns of different tables.
I'm writing a Procedure which Updates or Inserts data in Multiple tables. Selected fields of 10 tables need to be updated or Inserted. For this I created a table which comprises of fields related to all 10 tables. Then I write Procedure. Under this I create a Cursor which uploads the data from the newly created table which contains different fields of 10 tables. Then I write Update and Insert statements one by one for all 10 tables.
Sample Procedure below. ------------------------------------------- Create or replace procedure p_proc as spidm spriden.spriden_pidm%type; cursor mycur is select * from mytable; begin for rec in mycur [code]...... ----------
Note: I created table on my server because data is coming from different server. They will upload the data in the table from there I pick and update the tables. Is updating or Inserting data in different tables one by one is correct?
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE IND_MONITOR(P_tab VARCHAR2) is type ind_table is table of varchar2(20); p_ind ind_table; v_sql varchar2(2000); begin select index_name bulk collect into P_Ind from user_indexes where table_name=upper(P_tab); for i in 1..p_ind.count loop v_sql :='alter index '||p_ind(i)|| ' monitoring usage' execute immediate v_sql using p_ind(i); end loop; end;
I have a parent table EMPLOYEE which includes columns (sysid, serviceno,employeename...) sysid is Primary key, serviceno is Unique key and I have child table DEPENDENT includes columns (sysid,employee_sysid,name,dob...) here again SYSID is primary key for DEPENDENTS table, employee_sysid is Foreign key of EMPLOYEE table.
Now I want to change SYSID (using sequence) in EMPLOYEE table which need to be update in DEPENDENTS table as well
Note: I have 10000 records in EMPLOYEE table as well as I have 5 more child tables which need to update new SYSID.
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.
