How to insert column values into database as rows

Hi,
I have 8 columns and some not null columns. Based on not null columns I want to insert into table as rows. The 8 columns may contain values or no value. If the first column contains data, then I have to insert into one row. if the second column contains data I have to insert a row and in second column. respectively...So How can I insert column values into rows. Can I write 8 insert statements. (OR) is it possible to insert data from columns using where clause.
Please help me out....
Thanks in Advance

I have one more table:
PRDCT_INS_AMT NUMBER(14,4)
ACTIVATION_FEE_AMT NUMBER(14,4)
I want to insert prdct_bill_amt_yr (1 to 8) columns data into PRDCT_INS_AMT column. similarly activation_fee (1 to 8) columns data.
But the data should be inserted based product_type, service_type, lease_type columns values. (These 3 columns may contain upto 45 combinations).

How to insert parameter value into multiple columns and rows

Hi All,
I have one procedure insert_tab and I am passing
100~101~102:103~104~105:106~107~108 as a parameter to that procedure. I wanted to insert each numeric value into one column. The output of the table should contain

How to insert a value into a table

I have an ordering system. It displays all the orders by
customer ID. If an order is complete, a check number is entered for
the corresponding line item, otherwise it is left blank.
My code uses the following code to display the form. All are
display fields only, except for the last one, where the check
number can be entered.
<cfoutput query="qryDetail" group="partNumber">
<tr>
<td valign="top" class="TitleText"
align="center">#lineItem#</td>
<td valign="top" class="TitleText"
align="center">#OrderNumber#</td>
<td valign="top" class="TitleText"
align="center">#partNumber#</td>
<td valign="top" class="TitleText"
align="center">#dollarformat(qryDetail.unitValue)#</td>
<td valign="top" class="TitleText" align="center">
<cfinput type="text" name="checkNumber#keyID#">
<input type="hidden" name="keyID"
value="#qryDetail.keyID#">
</td>
I use something like the following to update the table with
the check numbers entered.
<cfloop index="KeyID" list="#form.KeyID#"
delimiters=",">
<cfquery name="qryUpdate" datasource="dbName">
update tblChecks
set checkNumber = '#Evaluate("form.checkNumber#KeyID#")#'
where custID = '#form.custID#'
and KeyID = '#KeyID#'
</cfquery>
</cfloop>
Now we have another table that will contain the customer
order history. If the check number was entered for a particular
line item, I need to insert that line item nubmer into this table,
along with some other columns. I tried to use the same loop, then
other loops, but cannot seem to get this to work. Seems simple
enough, but I obvisouly am missing something.
How would I insert the line item number (only if a check
number was entered for that line item) into the table ?

Here is the code with the queries commented out :
<cfloop list="#form.fieldnames#" index="field">
<cfif left(field, 11) is "checkNumber" AND
len(trim(form[field]))>
<cfset keyID = listlast(field, '_')>
<cfset lineItem = listgetat(field, 2, '_')>
<cfset checknum = form[field]>

<cfoutput> loop is
field: #field# 
checknum: #checknum# 
lineitem: #lineitem# 
keyID: #keyID# 
</cfoutput>
<cfelse>
<cfoutput>Else is
field: #field# 
form[field]: #form[field]# 
len: #len(trim(form[field]))# 
</cfoutput><cfabort>
</cfif>
</cfloop>
This is the output. If I do not put in cfabort, the code just
drops thru and I never see any output display, so I use cfabort to
stop so I can see the output.
loop is field: CHECKNUMBER_11_218
CHECKNum: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
lineitem: 11
keyID: 218
Else is field: CHECKNUMBER_1_24
form[field]:
I entered the x's into checknum for line item 11, so that is
correct.
I then took out the comments from the update query and tried
it again and it updated for line item 11 (you were right, I had to
take out the single quotes in the query). I then removed the
commets for the insert query and it did not insert. I tried the
whole thing again and tried to add to line item 10 and it dropped
straight to the else part, displaying :
Else is field: CHECKNUMBER_1_24
form[field]:
len: 0
So it seems the if statement if failing the second time thru
the loop :
<cfif left(field, 11) is "checkNumber" AND
len(trim(form[field]))>
This is my input statement :
<cfinput type="text"
name="checkNumber_#lineItem#_#keyID#">
I am really confused now. It seems to work the first time
thru the loop, then the second time it fails.

How to insert date value into oracle?

hi,
iam reading date from xml using vb.net and inserting it into oracle table.
the date value in xml file is in the format of "01012003".
i want to insert into oracle table.but iam getting an error "ORA-1843: not a valid month".
how to solve this problem.
Any suggestions or examples...

That's not a date. It's just a string. Convert it to a date using,
DateTime d = DateTime.ParseExact("01022003", "MMddyyyy", null);
or
Dim d As DateTime = DateTime.ParseExact("01022003", "MMddyyyy", Nothing)
and then bind it to a parameter. ODP.NET will take it from there.
You should never be hard-coding the date literal into your SQL query.

Please any body can help me on this regard.

Your PL/SQL seems reasonable.
My suspicion would be that the oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor class only supports persistent collection types, i.e. those declared at the schema level with CREATE TYPE.

How to insert new value into an array

I have an already declared array (including the size) and want to write a method for inserting a new value. Do I have to re-declare the array to the new size? ie old size + 1, then add the new value or is there a java method for this. I can't find one.
Thanks in advance....

Hi,
there is no method for that. Look up class Vector. That class implements automatic growing of the Vector.

Inserting new records into database table at runtime

Hi all ,
How to insert new records into database table at runtime on click update?
Thanks.

Hi Sasikala,
Just for your understanding am giving a sample code snippet which you can use to read the contents of your Table UI element & save the data on to your database. Suppose you have a button up on pressing which you want to read the data from your screens table & save on to the database then you can proceed as shown below:
1) Obtain the reference of your context node.
2) Fetch all the data present in your table into an internal table using methods of if_wd_context_node
3) Use your normal ABAP logic to update the database table with the data from your internal table
In my example I have a node by name SFLIGHT_NODE and under this I have the desired attributes from SFLIGHT. Am displaying these in an editable table & the user would press up on a push button after making the necessary changes to the tables data. I would then need to obtain the tables information & save on to the database.
data: node_sflight type ref to if_wd_context_node,
 elem_sflight type ref to if_wd_context_element,
 lt_elements type WDR_CONTEXT_ELEMENT_SET,
 stru_sflight type if_main=>element_sflight_node,
 it_flights type if_main=>elements_sflight_node.
" navigate from <CONTEXT> to <SFLIGHT_NODE> via lead selection
 node_sflight_node = wd_context->get_child_node( name = 'SFLIGHT_NODE' ).
 lt_elements = node_sflight->get_elements( ).
" Get all the rows from the table for saving on to the database
 loop at lt_elements into elem_sflight.
 elem_sflight->get_static_attributes( importing static_attributes = stru_sflight ).
 append stru_sflight to it_flights.
 endloop.
" Finally save the entries on to the database
 modify ZSFLIGHT99 from table it_flights.
 if sy-subrc eq 0.
endif.
However a word of caution here.... SAP doesn't ever recommend directly modifying the database through an SQL query. You would preferably make use of a BAPI for the same. Try go through Thomas Jung's comments in [here|modify the data base table which is comming dynamiclly;.

SQL Server 2012 Management Studio: Creating a Database and a dbo Table. Inserting VALUES into the table. How to insert 8 Values for future use in XQuery?

Hi all,
In my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio (SSMS2012), I tried to create a Database (MacLochainnsDB) and a dbo Table (marvel). then I wanted insert 8 VALUES into the Table by using the following code:
USE master
IF EXISTS
(SELECT 1
FROM sys.databases
WHERE name = 'MacLochlainnsDB')
DROP DATABASE MacLochlainnsDB
GO
CREATE DATABASE MacLochlainnsDB
GO
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[marvel] (
[avenger_name] [char] (30) NULL)
INSERT INTO marvel
(avenger_name)
VALUES
('Hulk', 1),
('Iron Man', 2),
('Black Widow', 3),
('Thor', 4),
('Captain America', 5),
('Hawkeye', 6),
('Winter Soldier', 7),
('Iron Patriot', 8)
I got the following error Message:
Msg 110, Level 15, State 1, Line 5
There are fewer columns in the INSERT statement than values specified in the VALUES clause. The number of values in the VALUES clause must match the number of columns specified in the INSERT statement.
How can I correct this problem?
Please kindly help and advise.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang
P. S.
The reason I tried to create the Database, dbo Table, and then to insert the VALUES is to learn the following thing:
You can query the entire node tree with the following xquery statement because it looks for the occurrence of any node with the /* search string:
DECLARE @x xml;
SET @x = N'<marvel>
<avenger_name>Captain America</avenger_name>
</marvel>';
SELECT @x.query('/*');
You can query the avenger_name elements from the marvel_xml table with the following syntax:
SELECT xml_table.query('/marvel/avenger_name')
FROM marvel_xml;
It returns the following set of avenger_name elements:
<avenger_name>Hulk</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Iron Man</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Black Widow</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Thor</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Captain America</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Hawkeye</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Winter Soldier</avenger_name>
<avenger_name>Iron Patriot</avenger_name>
You can query the fourth avenger_name element from the marvel_xml table with the following xquery statement:
SELECT xml_table.query('/marvel[4]/avenger_name')
FROM marvel_xml;
It returns the following avenger_name element:
<avenger_name>Thor</avenger_name>

Hi Scott,
The master database records all the system-level information for a SQL Server system, so best practise would be not to create any user-defined
object within it.
To change your default database(master by default) of your login to another, follow the next steps so that next time when connected you don't have to use "USE dbname" to switch database.
Open SQL Server Management Studio
--> Go to Object explorer(the left panel by default layout)
--> Extend "Security"
--> Extend "Logins"
--> Right click on your login, click "propertites"
--> Choose the "Default database" at the bottom of the pop-up window.
--or simply by T-SQL
Exec sp_defaultdb @loginame='yourLogin', @defdb='youDB'
Regarding your question, you can reference the below.
SELECT * FROM master.sys.all_objects where name ='Marvel'
--OR
SELECT OBJECT_ID('master.dbo.Marvel') --if non empty result returns, the object exists
--usually the OBJECT_ID is used if a if statement as below
IF OBJECT_ID('master.dbo.Marvel') IS NOT NULL
PRINT ('TABLE EXISTS') --Or some other logic
What is the sys.all_objects? See
here.
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

When you do this, there is no fundamental difference between "08:00:00" and "here's your sign".
Data should always be stored in the correct data type. For dates and times, that data type is either DATE or TIMESTAMP. Period.
in this format: 08:00:00

Hopefully as remediation to the original bad design.
thanks
