First row for each entry

hi
i have sorted the internal table by field f1 and i need to insert the first row for each f1 entry.
I tried AT NEW f1. But that doesnt seem to work.
Kindlly help.
Thanks.

*--ENSURE THAT age IS FIRST FIELD IN INTERNAL TABLE it_gir while declaring it.....
SORT it_gir BY age ASCENDING.
LOOP AT it_gir INTO wa_gir.
AT NEW age.
<b>*--if there are fields which are getting populated with **** instead of original values....then use below statement...</b>
read table it_gir index sy-tabix.
MOVE-CORRESPONDING wa_gir TO wa_final1.
APPEND wa_final1 TO it_final1.
clear wa_final1.
ENDAT.
ENDLOOP.
now it should definitely work.....
if not check in debugging mode if data exists or not....!!!

Getting the first row for each group

Hi Everyone,
I have a query which returns a number of rows, all of which are valid. What I need to do is to get the first row for each group and work with those records.
For example ...
client flight startairport destairport stops
A fl123 LGW BKK 2
A fl124 LHR BKK 5
B fl432 LGW XYZ 7
B fl432 MAN ABC 8
.... etc.
I would need to return one row for Client A and one row for Client B (etc.) but find that I can't use the MIN function because it would return the MIN value for each column (i.e. mix up the rows). I also can use the rownum=1 because this would only return one row rather than one row per group (i.e. per client).
I have been investigating and most postings seem to say that it needs a second query to look up the first row for each grouping. This is a solution which would not really be practical because my query is already quite complex and incorporating duplicate subqueries would just make the whole thing much to cumbersome.
So what I really new is a "MIN by group" or a "TOP by group" or a "ROWNUM=1 by group" function.
Can anyone help me with this? I'm sure that there must be a command to handle this.
Regards and any thanks,

Something like this:
select *
from (
   select table1.*
   row_number() over (partition by col1, col2 order by col3, col4) rn
   from table1
where rn = 1In the "partition by" clause you place what you normally would "group by".
In the "order by" clause you define which will have row_number = 1.
Edit:
PS. The [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e17118/functions004.htm#i81407]docs have more examples on using analytical functions ;-)

Creating view to get first row for each table !!

I am having tables(more than 10) which are related using foreign key and primary key relationship.
Example:
Table1:
T1Prim T1Col1 T1Col2
Table2
T2For T2Prim T2Col1 T2Col2 T2Col3
(here T2For will have value same as T1Prim and in my design it has same column name i.e. T1Prim)
Table3
T3For T3Prim T3Col1 T3Col2 T3Col3
(here T3For will have value same as T2Prim)
and so on.
The data in the tables is like For table1 there will be one record, for table2 there will be one record and for table 3 there are more than one records.
Can i view either the first record for each of them or all records from each of them by writing the following view.
I have written a view like this:
Create or replace view test (T1Prim,T1Col1, T1Col2,T2Prim,T2Col1 T2Col2, T2Col3, T3Prim,T3Col1, T3Col2, T3Col3)
As
Select
Table1.T1Prim,
Table1.T1Col1,
Table1.T1Col2,
Table2.T2Prim,
Table2.T2Col1,
Table2.T2Col2,
Table2.T2Col3,
Table3.T3Prim,
Table3.T3Col1,
Table3.T3Col2,
Table3.T3Col3
From
Table1,
Table2,
Table3
where
Table1.Prim = Table2.For
and Table2.Prim = Table3.For
When i ran the select statement on the view I am not getting any data. Whereas there is data when select is ran on individual table.
Can someone please tell me where i am goofing.
Thanks in the anticipation that i will get some hint to solve this.
Eagerly waiting for reply.
Thanks !!

I mean use a collection :
Collection Methods
A collection method is a built-in function or procedure that operates on collections and is called using dot notation. The methods EXISTS, COUNT, LIMIT, FIRST, LAST, PRIOR, NEXT, EXTEND, TRIM, and DELETE help generalize code, make collections easier to use, and make your applications easier to maintain.
EXISTS, COUNT, LIMIT, FIRST, LAST, PRIOR, and NEXT are functions, which appear as part of an expression. EXTEND, TRIM, and DELETE are procedures, which appear as a statement. EXISTS, PRIOR, NEXT, TRIM, EXTEND, and DELETE take integer parameters. EXISTS, PRIOR, NEXT, and DELETE can also take VARCHAR2 parameters for associative arrays with string keys. EXTEND and TRIM cannot be used with index-by tables.
For more information, see "Using Collection Methods".
Syntax
Text description of the illustration collection_method_call.gif
Keyword and Parameter Description
collection_name
This identifies an index-by table, nested table, or varray previously declared within the current scope.
COUNT
COUNT returns the number of elements that a collection currently contains, which is useful because the current size of a collection is not always known. You can use COUNT wherever an integer expression is allowed.
For varrays, COUNT always equals LAST. For nested tables, normally, COUNT equals LAST. But, if you delete elements from the middle of a nested table, COUNT is smaller than LAST.
DELETE
This procedure has three forms. DELETE removes all elements from a collection. DELETE(n) removes the nth element from an index-by table or nested table. If n is null, DELETE(n) does nothing. DELETE(m,n) removes all elements in the range m..n from an index-by table or nested table. If m is larger than n or if m or n is null, DELETE(m,n) does nothing.
EXISTS
EXISTS(n) returns TRUE if the nth element in a collection exists. Otherwise, EXISTS(n) returns FALSE. Mainly, you use EXISTS with DELETE to maintain sparse nested tables. You can also use EXISTS to avoid raising an exception when you reference a nonexistent element. When passed an out-of-range subscript, EXISTS returns FALSE instead of raising SUBSCRIPT_OUTSIDE_LIMIT.
EXTEND
This procedure has three forms. EXTEND appends one null element to a collection. EXTEND(n) appends n null elements to a collection. EXTEND(n,i) appends n copies of the ith element to a collection. EXTEND operates on the internal size of a collection. So, if EXTEND encounters deleted elements, it includes them in its tally. You cannot use EXTEND with index-by tables.
FIRST, LAST
FIRST and LAST return the first and last (smallest and largest) subscript values in a collection. The subscript values are usually integers, but can also be strings for associative arrays. If the collection is empty, FIRST and LAST return NULL. If the collection contains only one element, FIRST and LAST return the same subscript value.
For varrays, FIRST always returns 1 and LAST always equals COUNT. For nested tables, normally, LAST equals COUNT. But, if you delete elements from the middle of a nested table, LAST is larger than COUNT.
index
This is an expression that must yield (or convert implicitly to) an integer in most cases, or a string for an associative array declared with string keys.
LIMIT
For nested tables, which have no maximum size, LIMIT returns NULL. For varrays, LIMIT returns the maximum number of elements that a varray can contain (which you must specify in its type definition).
NEXT, PRIOR
PRIOR(n) returns the subscript that precedes index n in a collection. NEXT(n) returns the subscript that succeeds index n. If n has no predecessor, PRIOR(n) returns NULL. Likewise, if n has no successor, NEXT(n) returns NULL.
TRIM
This procedure has two forms. TRIM removes one element from the end of a collection. TRIM(n) removes n elements from the end of a collection. If n is greater than COUNT, TRIM(n) raises SUBSCRIPT_BEYOND_COUNT. You cannot use TRIM with index-by tables.
TRIM operates on the internal size of a collection. So, if TRIM encounters deleted elements, it includes them in its tally.
Usage Notes
You cannot use collection methods in a SQL statement. If you try, you get a compilation error.
Only EXISTS can be applied to atomically null collections. If you apply another method to such collections, PL/SQL raises COLLECTION_IS_NULL.
You can use PRIOR or NEXT to traverse collections indexed by any series of subscripts. For example, you can use PRIOR or NEXT to traverse a nested table from which some elements have been deleted.
EXTEND operates on the internal size of a collection, which includes deleted elements. You cannot use EXTEND to initialize an atomically null collection. Also, if you impose the NOT NULL constraint on a TABLE or VARRAY type, you cannot apply the first two forms of EXTEND to collections of that type.
If an element to be deleted does not exist, DELETE simply skips it; no exception is raised. Varrays are dense, so you cannot delete their individual elements.
PL/SQL keeps placeholders for deleted elements. So, you can replace a deleted element simply by assigning it a new value. However, PL/SQL does not keep placeholders for trimmed elements.
The amount of memory allocated to a nested table can increase or decrease dynamically. As you delete elements, memory is freed page by page. If you delete the entire table, all the memory is freed.
In general, do not depend on the interaction between TRIM and DELETE. It is better to treat nested tables like fixed-size arrays and use only DELETE, or to treat them like stacks and use only TRIM and EXTEND.
Within a subprogram, a collection parameter assumes the properties of the argument bound to it. So, you can apply methods FIRST, LAST, COUNT, and so on to such parameters. For varray parameters, the value of LIMIT is always derived from the parameter type definition, regardless of the parameter mode.
Examples
In the following example, you use NEXT to traverse a nested table from which some elements have been deleted:
i := courses.FIRST; -- get subscript of first element
WHILE i IS NOT NULL LOOP
-- do something with courses(i)
i := courses.NEXT(i); -- get subscript of next element
END LOOP;
In the following example, PL/SQL executes the assignment statement only if element i exists:
IF courses.EXISTS(i) THEN
courses(i) := new_course;
END IF;
The next example shows that you can use FIRST and LAST to specify the lower and upper bounds of a loop range provided each element in that range exists:
FOR i IN courses.FIRST..courses.LAST LOOP ...
In the following example, you delete elements 2 through 5 from a nested table:
courses.DELETE(2, 5);
In the final example, you use LIMIT to determine if you can add 20 more elements to varray projects:
IF (projects.COUNT + 20) < projects.LIMIT THEN
-- add 20 more elements

How to select the first row for each pair of values ?

Hi guys, am hoping someone can help me here.
If I have 4 tables - Building, Dept, Emp, Text
B D E T
A 1 Z blah1
A 1 X blah2
A 1 W blah3
A 2 V blah4
A 2 G blah5
A 2 H blah6
B 1 K blah7
B 1 L blah8
B 2 E blah9
B 2 F blah0
I need a query that will bring back the first bit of text for each pair of building and dept records.
So the results I would get would be
A 1 blah1
A 2 blah4
B 1 blah7
B 2 blah9
blah2 wouldnt be returned, because we have already had a record from the Building A, dept 1 pairing.
Likewise we wouldnt get blah5 because we have already had a record from the Building A, dept 2 pairing.
Can this be done in 1 query??
Thanks all.

XML DB: is it possible to get a row for each element in a container element?

I have an XML document containing a container element (collection). If I query, using an XPath expression, the contained elements I get a row for each container element with the contained element concatenated. Is it possible to get a row for each contained element?
I run this simple query:
select extract(xmltype('<colors><color>Red</color><color>Green</color></colors>')
, '/colors/color/text()').getstringval() from dual
And get this result:
EXTRACT(XMLTYPE('<COLORS><COLOR>RED</COLOR><COLOR>GREEN</COLOR></COLORS>'),'/COL
RedGreen
1 row selected.
What I would like to have is:
Red
Green
2 rows selected.
Wishful thinking or possible? Many thanks!

Sure. This is where our XMLSequence() function comes in. It allows you to treat the top-level nodes in a nodeset as if they were rows in a table when combined with the TABLE() operator. Here's an example.
First, to make the SQL look a little cleaner, I like to define a function like this:
create or replace function testdoc return xmltype as
begin
return xmltype('<colors><color>Red</color><color>Green</color></colors>');
end;.
To break out the nodeset of <color> elements as a table, we use the following query:
select value(list_of_color_elements).extract('*/text()').getStringVal() as color
from TABLE( XMLSequence( extract(testdoc(),'/colors/color'))) list_of_color_elements.
Or, using the new-in-9.2 extractValue() operator so we don't have to remember the text() part:
select extractValue( value(list_of_color_elements), '.') as color
from TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( testdoc() ,'/colors/color'))) list_of_color_elements.
Here the TABLE(XMLSequence(...)) combo produces a table of XMLType, with one XMLType object in each row of the table.
In general, if the XMLType instance were coming from an XMLType table xmltab the query would look like this:
select extractValue( value(colors), '.') as color
from xmltab x, /* Important that this table comes earlier in the FROM clause! */
TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( value(x),'/colors/color'))) colors.
And if the XMLType were instead in a column of XMLType named doc in a table xmltab, then we would have the syntax:
select extractValue( value(colors), '.') as color
from xmltab x, /* Important that this table comes earlier in the FROM clause! */
TABLE( XMLSequence( extract( x.doc ,'/colors/color'))) colorsOnce you get the hang of it, you'll see that the combination of TABLE(XMLSequence()) to "shred" XML nodes into rows, and XMLAgg() to aggregate fragments of XML across multiple rows back into a single document, is quite powerful.

Hi,
Let me make sure u r working with table control.
First u have to create a event(VALIDATE) to do the validation.
Inside the event,
1. First get the current index where user has pointed the curson
2. Once u get the index read the internal table with index value.
3. Now u can compare the col1 and col2 values and populate the error message.
1. DATA : lo_elt TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
l_index type i.
lo_elt = wdevent->get_context_element( name = 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT' ).
CALL METHOD LO_ELT->GET_INDEX( RECEIVING MY_INDEX = l_index.
above code should be written inside the event.
Thanks,

PDF Table action block is repeating first row in each page.

Hi All,
There is a strange problem in PDF Table action block. I am paasing one xml variable in the pdf table action block. But when it creates the final pdf - I can see the very first row of the xml is getting repeated as first row of each page along with the header.
Is there any solution - not to reapeat the first row of the xml in each page ?
Thanks in advance for your response.

How to make RECORD for saving multiple rows for each employee..

Hi,
How can I create a record for saving multiple rows for each employee... (parent child relationship)
I have created all required fields, then created a record, and then created a page. in that page i dragged-n-dropped a scroll area on that page and dropped all required fields from record into that scroll-area.
whats is happening that its saving ONE (the first) record fine, but for the second record its not storing EMPLID for that row..
Will I have to make some change at RECORD level ?
OR Will i have to make some configuration in parent component ?

Hi, the problem is solved. The record will be created in same way. just create more then one keys (allowing to make composite key in DB table)

FillBy always fills in the same row in data grid view. How to make it fill in a new row for each click of the Fillby Button? VB 2010 EXPRESS?

Hi there,
I am a beginner in Visual Basic Express 2010. I have a Point of Sale program that uses DataGridView to display records from an external microsoft access
database using the fillby query.
It works, but it repopulates the same row each time, but i want to be able to display multiple records at the same time, a new row should be filled for
each click of the fillby button.
also I want to be able to delete any records if the customer suddenly decides to not buy an item after it has already been entered.
so actually 2 questions here:
1. how to populate a new row for each click of the fillby button
2. how to delete records from data grid view after an item has been entered
Thanks
Vishwas

Hello,
The FillBy method loads data according to what the results are from the SELECT statement, so if there is one row then you get one row in the DataGridView, have two rows then two rows show up.
Some examples
Form load populates our dataset with all data as it was defined with a plain SELECT statement. Button1 loads via a query I created after the fact to filter on a column, the next button adds a new row to the existing data. When adding a new row it is appended
to the current data displayed and the primary key is a negative value but the new key is shown after pressing the save button on the BindingNavigator or there are other ways to get the new key by manually adding the row to the backend table bypassing the Adapter.
The following article with code shows this but does not address adapters.
Conceptually speaking the code in the second code block shows how to get the new key
Public Class Form1
Private Sub StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(
sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles StudentsBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click
Me.Validate()
Me.StudentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TableAdapterManager.UpdateAll(Me.MyDataSet)
End Sub
Private Sub Form1_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
'TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'MyDataSet.Students' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
Me.StudentsTableAdapter.Fill(Me.MyDataSet.Students)
End Sub
Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
Me.StudentsTableAdapter.FillBy(Me.MyDataSet.Students, ComboBox1.Text)
End Sub
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Me.MyDataSet.Students.AddStudentsRow("Jane", "Adams", "Female")
End Sub
End Class
Get new key taken from
this article.
Public Function AddNewRow(ByVal sender As Customer, ByRef Identfier As Integer) As Boolean
Dim Success As Boolean = True
Try
Using cn As New OleDb.OleDbConnection With {.ConnectionString = Builder.ConnectionString}
Using cmd As New OleDb.OleDbCommand With {.Connection = cn}
cmd.CommandText = InsertStatement
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@CompanyName", sender.CompanyName)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactName", sender.ContactName)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ContactTitle", sender.ContactTitle)
cn.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
cmd.CommandText = "Select @@Identity"
Identfier = CInt(cmd.ExecuteScalar)
End Using
End Using
Catch ex As Exception
Success = False
End Try
Return Success
End Function
In closing I have not given you a solution but hopefully given you some stuff/logic to assist with this issue, if not perhaps I missed what you want conceptually speaking.

I don't want a new row for each line of text

I have exported a pdf document which is a table full of text in columns (by month). The conversion seems to react randomly so that in some places several lines of text in a column are converted to just one cell (great, just what I want) and then in others, a block of text gets split into a row for each line of text --- very annoying ...
What would make this happen? Is there a workaround so that you can tell the conversion how to react to blocks of text?
hope someone can help

For optimal export the PDF needs to be a well-formed tagged PDF.
The basic PDF page content has no format, styling, rows, columns, etc.
Just objects painted to the PDF page at a specified location.
You can return to the authoring file, clean that up to support accessible PDF output, then post process the PDF with Acrobat XI Pro to finalize making the PDF PDF/UA compliant. Export of that would be better.
You can manually tag the PDF such that it is PDF/UA compliant than export from that . This would provide you better export.
You can clean up the export you already have.
Be well...

How can I have one row for each object?

Post Author: farnaz
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
I have 3 objcts that one of them is ID and second one is internal code and the third one is quantity.There is more than one value for each ID (becouse of internal code).I want to create a report based on ID and quantity (not based on internal code).I make a break on ID but the result shows me more than one row for each ID.so how can i have just one row for each ID?
another question:
how can I post screen shot of the results to my messag in forum?

Post Author: jsanzone
CA Forum: WebIntelligence Reporting
farnaz:
Have you tried to omit "internal code" from your grid? In normal circumstances, if you have "ID" and "Quantity" on the grid, then WebI will on its own summarize Quantity based on ID, however, this is provided that Quantity has been set up as a measure (or metric). The quickest way to tell if Quantity is a metric or not is to observe the color of its icon when you look at it in the data panel. If it is a purple (or sometimes appears as pink or fuscia) dot, then it's a measure, but if it is a blue box then it is a dimension. If you need Quantity as a measure then this will have to be modified at the universe (make it look like "sum(Quantity)" in the select phase of the object, and insure the object is defined as a number....

Hi,
SELECT DISTINCT ...will keep duplicate rows out of the result set.
Depending on your data, another possibility might be to not join the table that contains GURMAIL_MATL_CODE_MOD. Do an EXISTS sub-query on that table instead.
If you need more help, post some sample data from all the tables, and the results you want from that data.
Simplify, if possible, You can probably post a problem with 2 or 3 tables, each with 2 or 3 columns, that will have the same answer.

Comma separated column into rows for each value

experts,
I have a two column table. The second column has comma separated string values. How can I put the values separate for each comma separated and make one row for each value?
example,
column1 |   StringColumn
s1          |   test, joy, happy
s2          | USA, England, India
I want the result to be like below
column1   |    StringColumn
s1            |      test
s1            |      joy
s1            |      happy
s2            |     USA
s2            |     England
s2            |     India
thanks in advance

Selecting top x rows for each of the groupby clause

Hi Gurus (again).
I have this query to select the top 24 rows:
select * from
+(+
select proid, to_char((next_day(trunc(request_date, 'iw'), 'mon')-7), 'YYYY') as YEAR, to_char(request_date, 'IW') as WEEK,
next_day(trunc(request_date, 'iw'), 'mon')-7 as weekdate,
trunc(avg(case when report_date > request_date then ((report_date - request_date) * 24) end),1) as avg_ERT_hr, '24' as ERT_goal,
trunc(avg(case when response_date > request_date then ((response_date - request_date) * 24) end),1) as avg_IRT_hr, '48' as IRT_goal,
trunc(avg(case when deliver_date > request_date then ((deliver_date - request_date)) end),1) as avg_IDT_day, '0' as IDT_goal,
trunc(avg(case when complete_date > request_date then ((complete_date - request_date)) end),1) as avg_ORT_day, '0' as ORT_goal
from biw_hda_event
where request_date is not null
group by proid, to_char((next_day(trunc(request_date, 'iw'), 'mon')-7), 'YYYY'), to_char(request_date, 'IW'), next_day(trunc(request_date, 'IW'), 'MON')-7
order by 1 desc, 2 desc
+) where rownum <=24+
The problem here is that I have a group by "proid" clause in addition to the dates. My purpose is to be able to select the top 24 rows for each of the "proid" that is already grouped by the date. Essentially, the top 24 is the last 24 weeks pertaining to that "proid". How can I do this effectively without creating heaps of UNION clause for each of the "proid"?
thanks in advance

I meant to delete this thread, but I do not know how to. Sorry.
