How to search for multiple values with Bex Prompts

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to search for multiple values at the same time with Bex Prompts instead of searching one value at a time (please see the screen shot below). I searched the forum couldn't find any relevant answers. please let me know how to achieve?
Thanks,
Charvi.

Hi Charvi,
You can use wild card search to ensure you get multiple similar values listed as search output.use * for multiple characters and ? for single character.
For Example, Ravi * would result you all employees with first name as Ravi
You can use various search formats such as * Ravi * and * Ravi and Ra?? etc.
Thanks

How can I return multiple values with PL/SQL Web Services

Hi,
I'm new to developping Web Services. I'm doing some tests with JDeveloper and OC4J on my local machine with a Web Services based on a PL/SQL function within a package. Right now that function only returns one value. So the xml response only has one output.
I'd like to know how can I return multiple values with my PL/SQL Web Service. For example, if I want to return an employee's name and id? And that the xml contains two output : <employee>, <empid>?
Reginald
ps : I have searched the forum and I couldn't find an answer to this question, if that has been discussed AND answered before, can you please post the link? Thanks

Alright, I actually found my answer. Since this was asked I think as a followup somewhere else I'll give my answer.
It is very simple, all you have to do is create an Object Type and then Return that object type. After that, JDeveloper will take care of everything and you will have an xml response with multiple values. Here
{color:#ff0000}
create or replace TYPE person AS OBJECT
( id_interv number,
first_name VARCHAR2(50),
last_name VARCHAR2(50),
date_birth date
);{color}
Then your function used in your Web Service should look something like this :
{color:#ff0000}
function info_emp (p_empno IN VARCHAR2) RETURN person AS
l_emp person := person(-1,'','','');
BEGIN
SELECT first_name
,last_name
,emp_no
INTO l_emp.first_name
,l_emp.last_name
,l_emp.emp_no
FROM emp
WHERE upper(emp_no) = upper (emp_no);
{color}
{color:#ff0000}
RETURN l_emp;
EXCEPTION WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND THEN
l_emp := person (-1,'n/a','n/a','n/a');
RETURN l_emp ;
END info_emp;{color}
{color:#ff0000}{color:#000000}After that, this is what the xml response looks like :{color}{color}
<first_name xsi:type="xsd:string">John</first_name>
<last_name xsi:type="xsd:string">Doe</last_name>
<emp_no xsi:type="xsd:string">0250193</emp_no>

Is it possible to search for multiple folders with the same name and then select them all and change the permissions on just those folders .i.e. Search for the budget folders in all client folders and lock them down to just the project managers. Without having to go to each folder and apply the permissions.

How to search for a value in an iterator in Jdev 10.1.2?

Hi!
I need to search an iterator named "PermitYrIterator1" for a year value (e.g. 2009) that is stored in bindings.Yr in my jsp. How do I do this in my jsp's DataForwardAction Code) in Jdev 10.1.2?
I need this in my "Create page." I need to search for this value because I want to check if I should re-execute the "PermitYrIterator1" so that it shows the newly added year in bindings.Yr or not. If bindings.Yr is found in the iterator then I do not need to re-execute the iterator. But if the newly entered year cannot be found then I need to re-execute the iterator.
I hope you can help me immediately! Thanks!

How to search for a value within a tolerance in an array?

I am trying to search in an array for a value of say 10 plus or minus 2. In other words, I want a value of true if there is any value in the array between 8 and 12.

canadian;
LabVIEW includes with a VI called In Range and Coerce. You can test the value using that VI.
I also created a VI for exactly that. You can download it from here:
http://www.jyestudio.com/lview.shtml
It is called Search 1D array using conditions. Let me know if it is useful. Even more efficient, you can look at the code of that VI and then extract the functionality you want for your application.

If you received character strings' variable value such as '56,34',
then you can get it as follows.
where regexp_instr( '56,34' , '(^|,)('||t.catid||')(,|$)') >= 1
Ex)
with
test_param as
(select '56' param from dual union all
select '34' from dual union all
select '56,34' from dual union all
select '5,344' from dual
,test_data as
(select 5 catid from dual union all
select 3 from dual union all
select 56 from dual union all
select 34 from dual union all
select 566 from dual union all
select 344 from dual
/* End of Data */
select p.param, t.catid
from test_data t, test_param p
where regexp_instr( p.param, '(^|,)('||t.catid||')(,|$)') >= 1
PARAM      CATID
56            56
34            34
56,34         56
56,34         34
5,344          5
5,344        344

Search for multiple values

Hello,
I would like to search a table and find all values for each student that have a certain key word in the heading of a column and use all of the values found to calculate different averages. Is this even possible? Can i do a vlookup, or something like that, to search out many different values?
https://www.dropbox.com/s/kiqwl2qg50u2ubz/6th%20Grade%20Math-2012-11-08%20%281%2 9.numbers
Thanks!
-Josh

Josh,
SUMIF will do the work for you, but the searching for a particular string in the title will have to be done in an auxiliary row, not in the SUMIF expressions.
So, add a row above the row with the score titles; a new Row 1. In C1 write:
=IFERROR(FIND("N2", C2), "")
Fill Rignt
Now you have a key. Every column with "N2" anywhere in it's row 2 cell will have a "1" in row 1. You can use SUMIF, COUNTIF or AVERAGEIF to find those stats on a per-student basis. Your example file has only 2 columns with N2 in the score description, so the stats will be rather trivial for that particular set.
There's another way you can use this key. You can create a second table that mirrors the first table, but has null strings in all columns without the key and the true values for all columns where the key is "1". That would look like this...
This all seems a bit trivial, so I may be missing the point. It seems that you could just ignore the nonrelevant columns rather than go to the trouble of flagging them and filtering them out of the final table.

Search for multiple values separated by carriage return and not commas

I have developed a report in BI Publisher that allows a user to enter multiple values that are separated by commas.
Is there any way of entering multiple values that are separated by carriage return and not commas?

[CS3 JS] How to search for accented letters with GREP

Hello,
In the following script I have two words, each that has an accented letter. It appears that neither in the script nor in the Find and Replace dialog that GREP will recognize words with accents. It will replace accented characters however. I can do a search for words with no accents but that will lead to trouble when I only want to change the word if it has an accent.
Any advice would be great!
Tom
var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var rawWordsAccented = ["André","Barrës"]; //find these words
var rawWordsAccentedDHyphens = ["~-Andr\\x{00E9}","~-Barr\\x{00EB}s"]; //replacement words
for(var k =0; rawWordsAccented.length > k; k++){
    var numWords = theGrepChanger(myDoc,rawWordsAccented[k],rawWordsAccentedDHyphens[k]);
    }//end for k
function theGrepChanger(docRef,grepFindIt,grepChangeIt){
    app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
    app.changeGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = grepFindIt;
    app.changeGrepPreferences.changeTo = grepChangeIt;
    var arrGrepFindIt = myDoc.changeGrep();
    return arrGrepFindIt;
}//end theGrepFinder

John, perhaps it works in CS5 but not in CS3.
Peter, the problem is not in the replacement word or looping through that array backwards or forwards. The problem is finding a word with an accented character using the GREP mode.
In using the Find/Replace dialog I cannot find André. Nor Andr\x{00E9}, using Unicode. So if the dialog won't work it appears a script won't work. If I use "Andre" in the Search field it will find "Andre" and "André."
However I did find that if I change the GREP function in the script to the text mode I can find only words with accented characters and then replace them to my heart's content.
Tom
function theTextChanger(docRef,textFindIt,textChangeIt){
    app.findTextPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
    app.changeTextPreferences = NothingEnum.NOTHING;
    app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = textFindIt;
    app.changeTextPreferences.changeTo = textChangeIt;
    var arrTextFindIt = myDoc.changeText();
    return arrTextFindIt;
}//end theTextChanger

How can i search for multiple file names (images) in bridge?

Hello everyone!
Does anyone know how to search for multiple file names in bridge?
That is to copy & paste something like this: _MG_2152, _MG_2177, _MG_2194, _MG_2195, _MG_2202, _MG_2212, _MG_2219, _MG_2261, _MG_2362, _MG_2401
Not using several criterias in the search box that is. That takes too long.

How do you lookup multiple values in different columns based on variable criteria?

Essentially, I'd like to be able to do a Vlookup but instead of searching for one value only, search for multiple values in separate columns. A smaller version of my current spreadsheet as an example...
Attack Type ->
Fire
Water
Grass
Fire
1/2x
2x
1/2x
Water
1/2x
1/2x
2x
Grass
2x
1/2x
1/2x
Fire/Water
1/4x
1x
1x
Fire/Grass
1x
1x
1/4x
Grass/Water
1x
1/4x
1x
The headers are the attack types and the list of types to the left are the receiving Pokemon. Fire does half damage (1/2x) to fire types, Water does double damage (2x) to fire types, etc. I'd like to be able to search for specific damages for each type. For example, I'd like to find a Typing that recieves half (1/2x) damage from Fire-type attacks but also recieves double (2x) from Grass-type attacks. I do want more than just two search criteria though seeing as the actual table is much, much larger.
I've tried assigning number values to each damage multiplier and then merging all of them together for a specific typing and doing a VLOOKUP based on checkboxes determining what damage multiplier I want in a few specific types, the rest being filled in to the standard of 1x but the result isn't correct most of the time.

Hi Mitchell,
VLOOKUP can be set for accept either an 'exact match' or a 'close match'. Your 17 digit 'number' is actually a 17 character text string (Numbers can handle numbers to a precision of only 15 places). Provided all 17 digits are present, sorting should be the same as for numerical values—the leftmost character is the most significant.
As a text string, your 'number' is sorted/evaluated alphabetically. A 'close match' accepts the 'largest value that is less than or equal to the search value'.
If your search term is 000200000 (a 9 character string), several 'wrong' answers will fit the 'close match' criteria, including all of those listed below:
000200000 (the 'correct' match)
0000xxxxx (x may be any of the three acceptable values)
0001xxxxx (x may be any of the three acceptable values)
The main problem here is that digits in a number (or characters in a text string) have decreasing significance related to their distance from the beginning of the string/number. You want a search in which each character has the same significance as each of the others when compared to the search key. To do that, you need to compare each character in the search string with the character in the same position in the similar string for each type of Pokemon, then take a count of the matches or a sum of the differences.
Here's one approach:
Column A contains labels.
Column B, the 17 digit search term, created in whatever manner you wish, and the similar 17 digit string for each of the characters.
Columns C through S contains a formula that detines, using subtraction, the difference between each digit of the search term and the corresponding digit of each character's profile.
Column C uses SUM() to calculate the total of columns C to S for each row.
T1 uses =MIN(T) to calculate "least different" profile.
Column A is a Header column; Row 1 is a Header row.
Formulas:
C2, and filled right to S2, then down to the last row of data:
=ABS(MID($B$1,COLUMN()-2,1)-MID($B2,COLUMN()-2,1))
T1: =MIN(T)
T2, and filled down column T: =SUM(C2:S2)
The conditional formatting rule set for all body cells in column T is shown below the table.
This may be enough to get you started. Formulas can be tweaked to produce results more closely matching what you're looking for, if necessary.
Regards,
Barry

Please answer. how to search for files

Hi,
We need an integration with SAP. They send us files in the format: yyyymmddhhmiss.atv
For example we receive following files:
20050503101115.atv
20050504101115.atv
20050505101115.atv
So, we dont know how to search for all files with extensions ".atv" in the directory.
We are using PLSQL. Is there some way to resolve with UTL_FILE?
Any other suggestion?

A possibility:
In sqlplus, issue a HOST command to list the files to a file:
ls *.atv > atv_dir.txt
Then use utl_file to read atv_dir.txt and parse it for the file names.
You could put the filenames in a pl/sql table and use that as loop control.

How to search for value records for a specific period of time?

Hi,
I am building an application where I need to use BDB to store tons of call records.
In the call records, I have the following fields:
1. from-caller
2. to-caller
3. begin-time
4. end-time
5. account-code
6. user-code
I want to use end-time's microsecond representation to serve as the Key.
So, how can I do the following data lookup?
1. Search for all Value records between 2009-10-11 to now()
2. Search for all Value records between 2009-10-11 to now() with account-code = 100
3. Search for all Value records between 2009-10-11 to now() with account-code = 100 and user-code=10
Is there any similar examples out there that I can refer to?
Thanks,
JB

Hi,
Btw, my operation is mostly:
1. Append call records
2. Search call records
3. Remove ending records that are older than XX days
Please kindly advise on how I should best structure the data to meet this purpose.
Thanks,
JB

Searching for multiple identical values?

Hello.
I was wondering, is there anyway for a search to return results for multiple items with the same values?
For example, a spreadsheet of clients and their purchases. If the client makes several purchases (each a separate row) is their anyway search formula which could gather all of them?
Ideally what I am hoping to end up with is a sheet where I can type in their name and it will automatically fill with every entry for that client. However at the moment, search can find the last entry made for the client, but ignores earlier entry's. Is there a way around this?
At the moment I am just manually searching, finding the row number and using that to generate the final page.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hi DBuskar,
Please find attached an example for your request.
I hope this shows what you are looking for.
Greetings
Walter
