can a table level check constraints have conditional checking (if else clause or case conditional structures) and checks which are limited through something like a where clause which inside the table level check constraints.And can a table level check constraints refer to a column in another table column which should have a the same value.
why my code wont work. Am trying to create a constraint so that the only data that can be entered into the size field is a number between 4 and 15.
CREATE TABLE accommodation (chalet_no NUMBER (3) PRIMARY KEY, chalet_name VARCHAR2(20) NOT NULL, size NUMBER CHECK (size >3) AND CHECK (size <16), priceperweek NUMBER (4,2) NOT NULL);
I want to create a store procedure to copy data from a source tables(which may not have any constraints defined) to a table which has primary key, foreign key and unique key constraints.
Any records which are rejected due to these constraints not being satisfied need to go another table.
Once the initial data load is done, these procedures need to be automated(through cron) to do the future incremental uploads in the same manner.
what is the difference on DBMS_STATS for table level and partition level , which will provide the best optimizer . If the table xxxx is partitioned from 1 to 10 ,then running gather stats on table xxxx as whole table level or partition level which will provide best result on the performance.
When we create a duplicate table, we use the below query:
create table table2 as select * from table1;
But table2 is created without any constraints inherited from table1.Can I know how can i create the table with all the constraints existing in parent table.
I want to truncate table partition but I'm getting error:
CODEORA-02266: unique/primary keys in table referenced by enabled foreign keys
because of table has a nested table. Currently this column is not in use so I could drop it, but I want to avoid it (table is huge). Is there another posibility to do truncate partitions in this table? ALTER TABLE ... SET UNUSED doesn't resolve the problem.
i am a beginner in SQL and want to create a table with the following constraints :
'orderno' should be primary key and start with o 'clientno' should be foreign key 'ordr date' is not null 'salesmanno' foreign key 'delytype' default value 'f' and possible value ( f or p) 'delydate' cannot be less than order date 'orderstatus' values ('in process.......)
here's my
create table sales_order(orderno varchar2(6) like 'o%' primary key, clientno varchar2(6) foreign key references client_master(clientno),deldate date not null,dellyaddr varchar2(25),salesmanno varchar2(6) foreign key references salesman_master(salesmanno), delytype char(1) default 'f',billyn char(1),delydate date check > orderdate,orderstatus varchar2(10)check ('in process','fullfilled','cancelled');
I know that you can view all constraints in a table using $USER_CONSTRAINTS or $USER_INDEXES view. What i find difficult is that the information in those views is not really well presented.
I find it very hard to follow. For example, just to find out which columns are foreign keys and which tables they refer to is really tedious. Is there a simpler way to view all the constraints especially foreign keys of a table and including which table columns they refer to in the child table.
I like to see a diagramatic representaion of all the tables involved so i like to see both the parent and the child tables, which columns are related and using which FKs etc. is there an easier way to view this information?
Am creating a table based on some integrity constraints, but it's not working.
CREATE TABLE member ( member_id NUMBER(10), last_name VARCHAR2(25) NOT NULL, first_name VARCHAR2(25),
[code],,,
Error:
Error report: SQL Error: ORA-02270: no matching unique or primary key for this column-list 02270. 00000 - "no matching unique or primary key for this column-list" *Cause: A REFERENCES clause in a CREATE/ALTER TABLE statement gives a column-list for which there is no matching unique or primary key constraint in the referenced table. *Action: Find the correct column names using the ALL_CONS_COLUMNScatalog view
I want to write a sql query which will fetch the data from manual_temp_master and manual_temp_detl.But from manual_temp_detl table, Price_bkt_cds columns should be displayed as columns. Like the should look like as below:
But i think if table CON_TEST doen't exist, an error message will appear. I know that in SQL Server we can check if table exists or not. So, i wonder if we can do that in Oracle?
By the way, is there any way to run a file script that contents TABLES, STORED, ... on a developed PC connect to oracle db server? (in case, i'm developing on PC, using Net Service Name to conect to Oracle DB Server)

I created a table but I want to add the Unique check to it as I forgot to apply it to the table when I created it.Is it possible to make the field Unique after having created the table or do I have to drop the table and re-create it?
