How to select data from a PL/SQL table

Hi,
I am selecting data from database after doing some screening i want to store it in a PL/SQL table (temporary area) and pass it to oracle reports.
Is there any way to select the data from a PL/SQL table as a cursor. Or is there any other way of holding the temporary data and then pass it back as a cursor.
Regards
Kamal

A PL/SQL "table" is anything but a table. Whoever came up with this term in PL/SQL to describe what is known as dynamic arrays (the correct programming terminology that existed since the 70's if not earlier and what is used in all other programming languages I'm familiar with)... well, several descriptions come to mind and none of them are complimentary.
You cannot "select" from a PL/SQL dynamic array as it is not a table within the Oracle context of tables.
Thus you need to convert (cast) a PL/SQL dynamic array into a temporary Oracle data set/table in order to select from it. This is in general a Bad Idea (tm). Oracle tables and SQL and concurrency controls and all that are especially designed for processing data. PL/SQL arrays is a very simplistic data structure with very limited usage. Why would you want to use that in SQL via a SELECT statement when you can use Oracle tables (or proper temp tables) instead? Besides that, it is also slow to cast a dynamic PL/SQL array into an Oracle SQL data set structure (context switching, copying of memory, etc).
The proper way to use PL/SQL to generate data sets for use via the SQL engine is pipelined table functions.
This is not to say that you should never use PL/SQL arrays and casting in SQL.. simply that you need to make sure that this is the correct and scalable way to do it. And that will also always be an exception to the rule when you do.

  • How to select data from all HR Master Tables(PA0000 to PA****)

    Hi Gurus!
    My requirement is to pick the changedon(AEDTM) , changedby(UNAME) and reason for change(PREAS)  from all tables (pa0000 to pa****)of HR  in which he made any change during a specific date.
    Now if it is specific for two or three tables then inner join can solve it. but now it is the matter of picking data from maximum 9999 tables for which inner join will not be accurate.
    plz suggest me any appropriate way to solve it out. or there is any table which store  the changes in All HR Master Tables.
    Thanking in Advance.

    Hi,
    it is very tidious to get it in one go, as u know hr tables contains huge data.
    You can chack my wiki in https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/XYC0Aw .
    Here you need to make the following modification.
    1. in the selection screen set on date range with select option.
    2. in the select query, change select * by ur specified fields.
    3. change dynamic internal table and ALV as per ur required fields
    In this way you have to put the table name and the date range and will get the data.
    for repeation u can call the same job in background again and again store data in a seperate internal table and display finaly ..... but huge chance of getting 'Time Out ' error in that case for comparetively large day gap.

  • How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?

    How to select data from a table using a date field in the where condition?
    For eg:
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
                                                      and bdatu = '31129999'.
    thanks.

    Hi Ramesh,
    Specify the date format as YYYYMMDD in where condition.
    Dates are internally stored in SAP as YYYYMMDD only.
    Change your date format in WHERE condition as follows.
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
    and bdatu = <b>'99991231'.</b>
    I doubt check your data base table EQUK on this date for the existince of data.
    Otherwise, just change the conidition on BDATU like below to see all entries prior to this date.
    data itab like equk occurs 0 with header line.
    select * from equk into table itab where werks = 'C001'
    and <b> bdatu <= '99991231'.</b>

    Hi Shanbagavalli,
    There are multiple solutions to this questions a few i will try to answer and then you can take the best required for your requirements.
    **Consider that you have a Internal table having document number from other table..
    SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC
           INTO IT_ADRC
           FOR ALL ENTRIES IN IT_DOC
           WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = IT_DOC-DOCUMENT_NO.
    **Consider that you have 1 document number then
    SELECT NAME ADRES REGION FROM ADRC
         INTO IT_ADRC
         WHERE DOCUMENT_NO = W_DOCUMENT_NO.
    Hope this solves your problem.

  • Is it possible to show data from two different sql tables?

    Hi Terje,
    If you have a unique key, you could use one of the following functions for your scenarios:
    If you only have one image per house, you can use LookUp:

    Not unless you provide the code you are actually using.
    There is no definition of 'p_code_result' in your post and you say you 'trying to select data from d_table' but there is no code that loads 'd_table' in what you posted.
    And the SELECT query you posted actuall selects from an object named 'l_loop_idag_code_table1' which isn't mentioned in your code.
    Post the actual code you are using and all of the structures being used.
    Also explain why you even need to use nested tables and PL/SQL for whatever it is you are really doing.
