How to find out Column names from JDBC?

Hello,
How to get Oracle's Table Meta Data without firing a "SELECT" statement and using ResultSet meta data ?
Thanks,
-raj

This works for most jdbc drivers:
Connection con = ???;
DatabaseMetaData dbmd = con.getMetaData();
ResultSet rs = dbmd.getColumns( null, null, "TABLENAME", null );Read the API: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.1/docs/api/java/sql/DatabaseMetaData.html#getColumns(java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String,%20java.lang.String)

    how to find the form name  from VA02 T.code

    Hi Rajyam,
    I guess you are looking out for the formname which prints sales related documents.
    If this is what you want,then go to the T-code NACE and select the option K1Sales activities and click on the Output Types button on the top.The new window has all the types of Output types listed.Select the most appropriate and double click on the Processing routines button in the left side screen.
    The new window lists the program names and the forms associated with that output type.
    In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.
    Regards,
    Puneet Jhari.

  • Discoverer Report: How to find Business Area name from Report Name.

    Hi
    I opened a report in Disco Desktop 4 -> Resonsibiolity --> Report Name.
    So I know Report name but don’t know which Business Area it belongs to.
    How to find Business Area Name from Report Name?
    Cheers
    Vijay

    Hi,
    There is no relationship between reports and business areas. Each report can be built from many folders. Each folder can be in many business areas.
    However you can try the following SQL which may give you the result you want for an v5 EUL. You will have to modify for Discoverer 4 EUL:
    select distinct doc_name, obj.obj_name folder_name, bas.ba_name
    from eul_us.eul5_documents doc
    , eul_us.eul5_elem_xrefs xref
    , eul_us.eul5_expressions exp
    , eul_us.eul5_objs obj
    , eul_us.eul5_ba_obj_links bol
    , eul_us.eul5_bas bas
    where xref.ex_from_id = doc.doc_id
    and doc.doc_name = &your_report
    and xref.ex_to_id = exp.exp_id
    and obj.obj_id = exp.it_obj_id
    and bol.bol_obj_id = obj.obj_id
    and bas.ba_id = bol.bol_ba_id

  • How to pull only column names from a SELECT query without running it

    How to pull only column names from a SELECT statement without executing it? It seems there is getMetaData() in Java to pull the column names while sql is being prepared and before it gets executed. I need to get the columns whether we run the sql or not.

    Maybe something like this is what you are looking for or at least will give you some ideas.

  • How to find out server name in reports9i

    hi all
    how to find out server name in reports9i
    i need the report server name to call a report
    thanks
    Edited by: vikas singhal on Nov 5, 2008 1:02 AM

    You do not need to do anything, if your Report server is on the same machine as the Forms server (which is usually the case) you simply use the url as
    /reports/rwservlet?report=myreport' and the server will automatically use the default report server.
    then you simply use
    web.show_document('/reports/rwservlet?userid=scott/tiger@orcl&report=myreport&desformat=htmlcss&desname=test.html'Tony
    Try it now

  • How to find out company code from a plant ?

    Hello friends,
    I have to modify a program that uses FM "BAPI_COMPANYCODE_GET_PERIOD".   For that, we have to export company code ID.  Currently it is hard coded with one company code.  Now we want to make this program usable by all company codes.  So instead of hard coding, I would like to dynamically find out company code based on the plant.   So I want to know - how to find out company code from a plant ?  Is there any table that has plant to company-code assignment data, or any other FM/BAPI to get this info ?
    Thanks,

  • How to find out the user from the Jobs queue in Report server

    Hello All!
    I have a doubt about finding out the user from the scheduled jobs queue. Say I go ahead and schedule a report on Reports Server how can I find out the user name. When I view the jobs using showjobs I could see that the DBMS_JOBS table has a column under "Job Owner". But it invariantly shows it is "rwuser". So is there a way to find out which user has scheduled which job?
    Regards

    hi
    goto tx genil_model_browser. Suppose you want to find fields reated to your order header eg sold to name. In component set write all and press F8. Then goto access object and in access object click on node BTAdminH. Click on attribute structure. Here you will find structure and attributes. If you click relationship then you will see all the relationship wrt btadminh. open any r/s that you require. and click on other object and attribute. You will get to know the structure.
    Best regards
