How to select alternate entries from the database table

Hi Experts,
can u help me, how to select alternate entries from the database table.
Thanks

As there is no concept of sequence (unless there is a field specifically included for the purpose), there is no meaning to "alternate" records.
What table do you have in mind, what data does it hold, and why do you want alternate records?

Randomly selecting some rows from the database table

Hi can some one help me in selecting some rows from a database table which has around 90,000 rows.
Thanks.

One thing you might try is the "sample" clause if you have 8i which is supposed to return a random percentage of the table. Say for example, you have a sequence number on your table as the pkey. Then you might try:
select * from <table_name> where pkey in(select pkey from <table_name> sample(10));
This should give you a random 10 percent of the rows in the table but I tried this once and the results seemed unpredictable. For example it returned a different number of rows each time even though the number of rows in the table didn't change.
Hope this works for you.

Error while reading file entries from the database

Hi there,
We are running a instance of xmii 12 in a VM (VMware) and after somebody shutdown the host machine without shutting down the VM (great idea isn't it?) we keep getting this message when trying to access xMII:
"Application cannot be started.
Details: com.sap.engine.services.deploy.container.ExceptionInfo: Error while reading file entries from the database."
Any clue? Any suggestion on how we can recover from that?
Thanks a whole lot,

Well thanks for the hint. Actually, the DB was up but corrupted. I managed to solve the bug by re-deploying xMII (using the SDM tool) which kept all my data but redeployed both the config db of (x)mii and the class files.

How to search a string from the database?

how to search a string from the database? starting with some character

If you're trying to do this in a SELECT, you can use the LIKE verb in your WHERE clause.
Here's an Example
SELECT obj_name FROM tadir
    INTO prog
    WHERE pgmid = 'R3TR'
      AND object = 'PROG'
      AND obj_name LIKE 'Z%'.
In this case it will select every row that obj_name starts with Z.
If you wanted to find every row that the field obj_name contains say... 'WIN' you use LIKE '%WIN%'.

Hello Anybody, I have a question. Can any of you please suggest me how to make an xml file from the database table with all the records?

The Oracle documentation has a good overview of the options available

Without knowing your version, I just picked 11.2, so you made need to look for that chapter in the documentation for your version to find applicable information.

How to select multiple values from the parameters in BI Publisher report

How to select multiple values from the parameter drop down in BI Publisher, and how to handle this mulitple values from the report sql...

Hi kishore,
I have used all the steps as you mentioned in your previous reply....including checking Mulitple Selection Check Box..
Iam able to get the results when I am selecting one value..
and also I am able to handle multiple values the in the query by using IN :Parameter, but seems when we select more than one value from the parameter drop down i think the Bi Publisher is sending the values in concatenated form something ilke
ex: "'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'" ,and when trying to display the parameters values in the output, its throwing the error as 'missing right paranthesis' ....on the whole do you have any solution which would handle
1.Single selection.
2.Multiple selection.
3.'ALL' Values.
4.Separating the concatenated string into individual strings and dispaly them on the output of the report..etc..in case of Mulitple selection.
Ex:
Concatenated String from BI Publisher:"'ACCOUNT','HR','SALES'"
Expected Output on the report:ACCOUNT,HR,SALES
reply to this would be much appreciated....
thanks,
manoj

How to select multiple values from the Parameters in the concurrent program

How to select multiple values from the Parameters defined in the concurrent program...and i believe multiple selection is not a direct feature of EBS, but is there any workaround solution to acheive mulitple selection?

I think there's no way to do that using standard feature.
Some workaround I use :
1. If the number of selections are fixed, you could use multiple parameters for the same valueset. For example :
Selection1 : <choose first selection>
Selection2: <choose 2nd selection>
..etc.
If you don't use it then leave it empty.
2. Use text varchar valueset and enter it manually and separate by comma (or other value) , eg : selection1,selection2,selection3....etc.

Re:How can we delete the concurrent node entry from the FND_NODE table

HI ,
11.5.10.2 on Oracle Solaris on SPARC (64-bit) .
How can we delete the concurrent node entry from the FND_NODES table without running Autoconfig.
Currently we are having 3 nodes RAC and we are deciding to remove one node from the RAC and all 3 nodes are registered as concurrent node with application but concurrent manager is running only on one node.
Lot of the custom configuration we did it at application web tire level. If we run the Autoconfig at that time we need to redo those changes again that we are trying to avoid.
Regards .

we are trying to avoid to run FND_CLONE.setup_clean because it will delete all the nodes entries from the FND_NODES.If those entries are invalid then they should be deleted.
Running AutoConfig after purging the table will populate it with the correct entries.
In order to populate the nodes entries again we need to run autoconfig and it will change the server id in fnd_nodes and then we need to redo the ADI client configuration on users PC and redo all the changes that we made in jserv and webserver.For ADI Clients, you should use the correct server ids which will be populated in the table for you once you run AutoConfig.
For jserv configuration, you can refer to (Customizing an AutoConfig Environment [ID 270519.1]) to make the preserve all your custom setup/configuration after running AutoConfig.
If there any custom script to delete only one node from the fnd_node so that we don't need to run autoconfig after that, then I really appreciate.No.
Thanks,
Hussein

Delete all entries from the following tables - Follow-up Activities (oracle)

Hello,
I performed a homogeneous system copy of our development BW system with the database (oracle 11.2.0.3) from the BW production system!
I already start the oracle database and the SAP system in the target system/server (development BW system) and I´m doing some follow-up activities. One of this activities is (at the system copy guide 6.2.3.2 Activities at Database Level) is to delete all entries from the following tables:
DBSTATHORA, DBSTAIHORA, DBSTATIORA, DBSTATTORA
I tried to delete them using SQL Plus:
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect /as sysdba
SQL> delete from DBSTATTORA;
delete from DBSTATTORA
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
... and it show me that error message.
This is strange because when I go to transaction SE14 and check the DBSTATTORA I see that table exist and contain a lot of entries!
Why this is happened in SQL Plus!? I´m running the correct SQL statement for doing this type of task or not?
How can I delete the entries of that tables? Can I do that using the transaction SE14?
Can you help me please?
Thank you,
samid raif

Hello
sqlplus /nolog
SQL> connect /as sysdba
SQL> delete from DBSTATTORA;
delete from DBSTATTORA
ERROR at line 1:

It doesn't surprise me as you are not mentioning the schema name here. Instead it should be
delete from SAPSR3.DBSTATTORA;
Assuming the schema owner is SAPSR3. if the owner is different then replace that with the correct one.

How to make data entries in a database table field as a hyperlink?

Hello all,
I am designing an application in BSP. The requirement is to make some of the entries in the database
tables as hyperlink values.
I have a database table which has a field "country feature". The scenario is that the user can enter any value in this field through view. The value can be a hyperlink or a free text, depending on the user requirement.
Is there any way by which the user can enter hyperlink values in the particular field in a database table?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Gurmahima.

Hey Gurmahima ,
This is sample code for Selecting and deselecting all the checkboxes .
All you have to do is Set a pf-status and follow the code logic .
Here w_check is the check box field , w_line is the line your raeding and w_lines is the total number of lines(entries ) you have in table .
set pf-status 'SELECT' .
case sy-ucomm .
    when 'SELECTALL' .
      set pf-status 'SELECT' excluding 'SELECTALL' immediately.
      w_line = w_line + 3 .
      do w_lines times .
        read line w_line field value w_check .
        if w_check = space .
          w_check = 'X' .
          modify line w_line field value w_check.
          add 1 to w_line .
        endif .                        " IF W_CHECK = ' '
      enddo .                          " DO W_LINES TIMES
      clear w_line .
    when 'DESELECT' .
      set pf-status 'SELECT' excluding 'DESELECT' immediately.
      w_line = w_line + 3 .
      do w_lines times .
        read line w_line field value w_check .
        if w_check = 'X' .
          w_check = space .
          modify line w_line field value w_check .
          add 1 to w_line .
        endif .                        " IF W_CHECK = 'X' .
      enddo .                          " DO W_LINES TIMES
      clear w_line .
Hope you get it!

Can I restore the deleted statistical data from the database tables?

Hi all,
I have deleted the statistical data from the database tables like(Ex: RSDDSTAT, RSDDSTATWHM,..) by mistake through RSA1> Tools> BW Statistics for Infoproviders--> Delete.
Is there any way to restore the deleted data back? Thanks in advance.

Now I'm really confused-
Your first post said
"I have deleted the statistical data from the database tables like(Ex: RSDDSTAT, RSDDSTATWHM,..) by mistake through RSA1> Tools> BW Statistics for Infoproviders--> Delete."
but your last respsonse said
"I have deleted the BW Statistics data, not the actual data in RSDDSTAT tables through
RSA1 -> Tools -> BW Statistics for InfoProviders -> clicked 'Delete' bin to delete data."
If you used the RSA1 -> Tools -> BW Statistics for InfoProviders -> clicked 'Delete' - then you deleted the data from the RSDDSTAT tables. This assumes you accepted the default date range that would have popped up after the clicking on the Delete button which specified to delete thru the current date. If this is what you did, the data is gone. Your only hope is be to recover from a DB backup.
The data in the RSDDSTAT tables is what is used to feed the BW Statistics cubes, generally on a daily basis.

How I can transfer data from the database into a variable (or array)?

I made my application according to the example (http://corlan.org/2009/06/12/working-in-flash-builder-4-with-flex-and-php/). Everything works fine. I changed one function to query the database - add the two parameters and get the value of the table in String format. A test operation shows that all is ok. If I want to display this value in the text area, I simply drag and drop service to this element in the design mode
(<s:TextArea x="153" y="435" id="nameText" text="{getDataMeanResult.lastResult[0].name}" width="296" height="89" />).
It also works fine, just a warning and encouraged to use ArrayCollection.getItemAt().
Now I want to send the value to a variable or array, but in both cases I get an error: TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties..
How can I pass a value from the database into a variable? Thank you.
public var nameTemp:String;
getDataMeanResult.token = authors.getDataMean(arrayOfNumber[0], dir_id);
nameTemp = getDataMeanResult.lastResult[0].name;
public var nameArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:uint=o; i<3; i++){
getDataMeanResult.token = authors.getDataMean(arrayOfNumber[i], dir_id);
nameArray[i] = getDataMeanResult.lastResult[0].name;
And how i can use syntax highlighting in this forum?

I have to go back to the discussion. The above example works fine when i want to get a single value of the database. But i need to pass an array and get an array, because i want to get at once all the values for all pictures tooltips. I rewrote the proposed Matt PHP-script and it works. However, i can not display the resulting array.
yep, it won't work for Arrays, you'll have to do something slightly more intelligent for them.
easiest way would be to get your PHP to generate XML, then read that into something like an ArrayList on your HTTPService result event (depends what you're doing with it).
for example, you could have the PHP generate XML such as:
<pictures>
 <location>test1.png</location>
 <location>test2.png</location>
 <location>test3.png</location>
 <location>test4.png</location>
 <location>test5.png</location>
 <location>test6.png</location>
</pictures>
then you'll read that in as the ResultEvent, and perform something like this on it
private var tempAC:ArrayList = new ArrayList
protected function getStuff_resultHandler(event:ResultEvent):void
 for each(var item:Object in event.result.pictures)
 var temp:String = (item.@location).toString();
 tempAC.addItem(temp);
in my example on cookies
http://www.mattlefevre.com/viewExample.php?tut=flash4PHP&proj=Using%20Cookies
you'll see an example of how to format an XML structure containing multiple values:
if($_COOKIE["firstName"])
 print "<stored>true</stored>";
 print "<userInfo>
 <firstName>".$_COOKIE["firstName"]."</firstName>
 <lastName>".$_COOKIE["lastName"]."</lastName>
 <userAge>".$_COOKIE["userAge"]."</userAge>
 <gender>".$_COOKIE["gender"]."</gender>
 </userInfo>";
 else
 print "<stored>false</stored>";
which i handle like so
if(event.result.stored == true)
 entryPanel.title = "Welcome back " + event.result.userInfo.firstName + " " + event.result.userInfo.lastName;
 firstName.text = event.result.userInfo.firstName;
 lastName.text = event.result.userInfo.lastName;
 userAge.value = event.result.userInfo.userAge;
 userGender.selectedIndex = event.result.userInfo.gender;
depends on what type of Array you're after
from the sounds of it (with the mention of picture tooltips) you're trying to create a gallery with an image, and a tooltip.
so i'd probably adopt something like
<picture>
 <location>example1.png</location>
 <tooltip>tooltip for picture #1</tooltip>
</picture>
<picture>
 <location>example2.png</location>
 <tooltip>tooltip for picture #2</tooltip>
</picture>
<picture>
 <location>example3.png</location>
 <tooltip>tooltip for picture #3</tooltip>
</picture>
etc...
or
<picture location="example1.png" tooltip="tooltip for picture #1"/>
<picture location="example2.png" tooltip="tooltip for picture #2"/>
<picture location="example3.png" tooltip="tooltip for picture #3"/>
etc...

How to select multiple addresses from the contacts list to send an email?

How do I select multiple addresses from the contacts list at one time to send an email. Each time I select one, the address book closes and I have to touch the "+" key to open it back to select another address. Is there a way to select all of them at one time instead of making a group? Thanks.

Yes, once you select a person from your Contacts app, you either need to select more from the '+' button or you can tap in the 'to:' field and type in the first few letters of a contact and select from the list. Kinda bummer but gotta make do.

How to have a multilanguage from the database

Hi,

My problem is with the data from the database.(i.g. select on choice with the items dynamic from the database)
Also if i am displaying for example the customer info in af:outputtext i want his name to be displayed in english , arabic and other according to the locale choice

Edited by: ebitar on Jun 11, 2009 8:24 AM

Hi,
resource bundles work for labels but not data. If you have such a requirement then you need to add this using a discriminator column when querying it. Say you maintain the display data in multiple languages, then you would have a column that holds the language. The query would then be for the language the user expects. If you have static data - in the select one choice case - you can use
