The db field is a string-type field that hold strings such as:
'1234'
'753'
'textstring'
'345'
Obviously, if you sort it, it'll be stored as a string such as:
'1234'
'345'
'753'
'textstring'
My client wants it so the numbers sort as integers, followed by string-like strings (sorted alphabetically), so it's like.
'345'
'753'
'1234'
'textstring'
Is there a quick and dirty SQL-only way to doing this in Oracle?
I have the following query
SQL>
SQL> SELECT DECODE(act.statement_flag, NULL, 'Total',act.statement_flag) "Monthly Statement?",
2 COUNT(account_id) "Count",
3 ROUND(((COUNT(account_id)/
(SELECT COUNT(account_id) FROM accounts
WHERE account_status_id = consts$.acct_sts_active))* 100),2) || '%' "Percent of Active Accounts"
4 FROM accounts act
5 WHERE act.account_status_id = consts$.ACCT_STS_active
6 GROUP BY ROLLUP(act.statement_flag)
SQL> /
Monthly Statement? Count Percent of Active Accounts
------------------ ---------- -----------------------------------------
N 1892 98.08%
Y 37 1.92%
Total 1929 100%
I want the output to be in the following fashion:
Monthly Statement? Count Percent of Active Accounts
------------------ ---------- -----------------------------------------
Y 37 1.92%
N 1892 98.08%
Total 1929
And I would also like to know is there another way to find the Percent of Active accounts in the query.
I got the following data for which I will like to sort in ascending order.
B51-01-008/04022013/CRE1005/1
B51-01-008/04022013/CRE1005/2
B51-01-008/15-1-13/SSA6280/1
B51-01-008/31012013/CRE1005/1
B51-01-008/31012013/CRE1005/10
B51-01-008/31012013/CRE1005/2
and expected result will be
B51-01-008/15-1-13/SSA6280/1
B51-01-008/31012013/CRE1005/1
B51-01-008/31012013/CRE1005/2

I will like to sort it based on the order on second segment for which is date, the earlier appear first then only the rest.
Is it possible to sort records based on hierarchy in such a way that records sorts in sequence and records of same level comes in the last (in sorting order)
Eg: Default hierarchy level order: 0,1,2,2,3,3,3,4,5
Above given is the default sorting order of an query for an parent 'NODE_A1' having multiple same level i.e 2 and 3
Expected Hierarchy level order: 0,1,2,3,4,5,2,3,3
Please check attached file for an example.
sort data set A,B,1,2,A1,A2,B1,B2,2B,1000 as A,B,1,2,1000,A1,A2,B1,B2,2B.
I tried with LPAD and EXPREG_REPLACE funtion. But it did not work.
I am trying to sort columns base on cluster and alpha numeric field.

2 2-QIZFF7 1
3 2-PIZFF6 6
3 ARCT-0037000000ewipk 9
3 2-QIZTF7 1
Wanted to sort in a way that column1 will be same order and the second column will order first with ARCT-XXXXX and then reset of the column2. It should look like this
Column1 Columns2 column3
1 ARCT-0037000000ewegZ 10
1 2-CA6R-231 8
1 2-CA6R-234 9

I'm trying to sort a collection in a nested table in PL/SQL so these value can be used later for a display and for export to Excel. The sort is failing.
-- PLS-00642: local collection not allowed in SQL statements
-- PL/SQl: ORA-00902: invalid datatype
The error message are also noted below in the code on the line that fails.
A quick overview of this code- Using a nested table MyNestedTable the values from several select queries are combined into MyRecordsetZero using CURSOR, and MULTISET UNION. I'm trying to either sort MyRecordsetZero or populate MyRecordsetSorted with the sorted values for futher use.
IMPORTANT: The code is running in an enviroment that does not have permission to create.

In test.pks file I declared the following type
TYPE tab_tests is table of NUMBER(15);
In test.pkb, I have the following procedure
PROCEDURE report (
i_cid IN NUMBER

test1 tab_tests := tab_tests();
test2 tab_tests;
BEGIN
-- I populate test1 with the data and it works fine. But when I tried to make a sorted nested table with the following command.
I got this error 'ORA-00902: invalid datatype',
a nested table than the following, like a built in Oracle collection method?
execute immediate 'select cast( multiset (select * from table(test1) order by 1) as tab_tests) INTO test2 FROM dual';

I have report where there are multiple columns and requirement is user may choose his own sorting order from form, any sample .rdf.
CREATE TABLE EMP (EMP_CODE VARCHAR2(12),EMP_NAME VARCHAR2(20),SAL NUMBER);
INSERT INTO EMP VALUES ('1','A',10);
INSERT INTO EMP VALUES ('2','C',3);
INSERT INTO EMP VALUES ('3','B',20);

--note order by is changing, how its doable in report 6i.
1) eno list values ASC , DESC
priority Column : 2
2) DNO List Values ASC , DESC
priority column : 1
3) DTNO List Values ASC , DESC
priority column : 3
So i need the sorting order output like this
LIST VALUES ASC (OR) DESC USER SELECT AT RUN TIME ANY VALUE.
ORDER BY DNO DESC , ENO ASC , DTNO ASC
* The Priority is user will enter at run time based on the number the column should be sorting.
I have three SQLS which I am running using "Union"
e.g
select col1,count(*) from table where type ='parts'
group by col1
union
select col1,count(*) from table where type ='consumables'
group by col1
union
select 'Total',count(*) from table
group by 'Total'
I want to force the total column to be the last row of the select and the parts column to be the first row always. I did try something like prefixing the col1 with an alphabet. But that shows up in the output also. Was looking for a better way!
I have two list items and from left list item values are populated to right list item through Add and Remove buttons and vice versa.My requirement is
1.) I need to sort the values of list item whenever a new element is added to the list item.
I have a Group report based on one group.For eg..there is machine (Group) and it has detail records .The problem is there are certain specific machine on which i want sorting to be done the rest will be not sorted.
machine WX
Details not be sorted
machine sh4
Details to be sorted
machine sh5
Details to be sorted
machine AN1
Details not to be sorted
Jow can i sort field data getting from formula column. The filed that i want to sort have source of that formula column. When i use order by clause with :abc ---(formula column) then it doesn't not work.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a table in which I extract the year and the month and both in combination (from a date type). This is needed to summarize for example the year in a chart.
I need the combination of month and year because people could do a query which switches through years. For expample: From 02.2012 to 03.2013.My problem is I dont know how to tell anychart to sort the dates. I have already tried:
to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY')) as Year,
to_number(to_char(testdate,'YYYY'))||to_number(to_char(testdate,'MM')) as MonthyearApex now sorts:
20121,201212,20122
I would like that apex realizes to order:
1.2012,2.2012,3.2012 .........01.2013,02.2013.03.2013
The report itself has now four date relating collums:
1) Date (Type Date)
2) Year (Type Number)
3) Month (Type Number)

3 rows.
In this i need to fetch only ID from each row.
create table testtable ( TestCol varchar2(4000));
INSERT INTO TESTTABLE VALUES ('The Student Record 10101 is deleted');
INSERT INTO TESTTABLE VALUES ('The Student Record 10102 is deleted');

Is there a way to short a Matrix report? The query shorts correctly in PLSQL but not in the generated report file.
There are columns like Date,Device,Operator Id etc and the report should be able to short depending on the requirement. For example,
it should be able to short by device, or by Date or both. I tried sorting in the 'Break order' but doesn't come out as required.
I have 2 strings that I want to compare for example
string1 = 'ABC~AB/10/1234'
string2 = 'ABC~AB/10/1234~.....'
There could be anything after the 2nd ~ in string 2 is there a easy way of trimming string2 to the first 14 Characters? Or do I have to find the 2nd instance of ~ and then remove everything after (and including) that?
Im trying to extract, *THIS IS MY STRING* from *<YUVRAJ THIS IS MY SRTING YUVRAJ>* .

In the code segment below (hope it appears right) I can understand the use of single quotes in the first two examples but in the third example below I had to use double quotes around the word - Today's - and I not sure I understand why?! I'm aware of the rules ...If you want a single quote to appear in the middle of a string add another single quote to it.If you want a single quote to appear at the beginning or end of a string add 2 single quotes to it.If you want a single quote to appear on its own add 3 single quotes to it.

I have to compare a string entered in a form with a series of English strings in back-end PL/SQL( using LIKE operator )
But it so happens, the string entered in the form is specific to the language used in the country. for ex. in Dutch, it is entered in Dutch language.
So on comparing, it fails as the PL/SQL compares it with English Strings.
I need to split the given string into muliple sub strings based on one special character
Ex : Speace is Special character
with data as (
select 'ab cd ef gh ' from dual )
select * from data
Required Output :
ab

ef
gh

tyring to insert an insery query having string as a column where i am supposed to insert a single quote casuing the problem.
insert into abc(x,y) values (1,'select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh='self' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij')
getting missing comma with the above query.when i tried to give as
insert into abc(x,y) values (1,'select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh=''self'' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij')
insert is happening but saving as "select abc,bbc from T_AB A,select fgh,hij from T_AB where fgh=''self'' group by fgh,hij having count(fgh)>1) B) where A.hij=B.hij"
how to avoid this and get the select query to store as
