Query on unsaved rows

Hi all,
I've got a problem at a customer's site.
The problem is as follows:
After adding an item(Bill of material, type:reference) in the order rows the customer changes a user defined field in the first row of this bill of material. The Idea then is to update all underlining rows off this bill of material in this order with the same value in this User defined field.
This all needs to be done before the order is saved..
Has anybody got any Idea how to do this?

Thanks, That would be an option..
Is there a way to make another FS do that automatically(one that is triggered on row lelel) something like set $[ordr.U_fieldname] = $[rdr1.Itemcode]
Because if this will work, then I can fill a temporary table with the values and update the BOM lines from there..

Return Code - Query for Multiple Rows as XML

Hi,
I'm executing an MSSQL stored procedure through the "Query for Multiple Rows as XML" activity in LiveCycle ES. I do this through a call statement such as this:
{ call MyStoredProc(?) }
This works great, the stored procedure always returns a record set (with or without records). I use this activity rather than "Call Stored Procedure" because I can transform the record set into XML right away within this activity. Unfortunately any exception arising from invoking this stored procedure cannot be handled within the workflow as this activity does not have an exception handler (lightning bolt). In an attempt to handle at least some exceptions we have decided to use try/catches within the stored procedures and return different error codes. Now the problem I am faced with is that there is no way to retrieve the returned code within any of the SQL activities. We don't want to have to write an execute script for each of these SQL calls. Is there any way to do this? Seems like I'm 95% there.
Thanks
Nic

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately we would need something certified by Adobe.

XML attributes makes my query return no rows

Hello everyone,
I've an odd problem.
I'm querying some XML, but the attributes in one of the tags make my query return no rows; if I remove the attributes, then the query works as expected.
The XML is below; it's the attributes in the Report tag that cause the issues:

Thank you very much in advance.

Or look for aggregation techniques against the forum helping by the search feature (top-right of the current page).

3.5 Query Designer has 'row' in the footer of results but 7.0 has 'page'

3.5 Query Designer has 'row' in the footer of results but 7.0 has 'page' is there a way to change 7.0 to have 'row' instead of 'page'? We would prefer to see how many rows of data we have. I didn't know if this was a parameter they may be able to be changed.
Thanks,
Diane

I donot think there is way to display Row instead of Page.
Also in 7.0. It is based on cells.

Hi!
I've a doubt. If u finally picking all the values which matched with field schs_loc_shortcut_source and which is 'MP' - then why r u using multiple condition in the WITH part? So, in that case, u don't have to write that additional filtering of the following lines in the outer query -
Where schs_loc_shortcut_source = 'MP';Regards.

Repeating frame not visible when the query returns no rows

I've developed a report whose output looks like this:
Subinventory | Part Code |Part Description |Ordered Qty | Received Qty
Mentone St | BATT | non serialised item | |
Mentone St | SONY | spare parts MIN MAX | 30| 0
In the above report
subinventory, Part Code, Part description are in one repeating frame and Ordered and received qty are in other repeating frame.
for a perticular part code there may not be ordered or received quantities. Means the seond query fetches no rows for the perticulat partcode. In that case report is showing null(blank) but I want to print ZERO there.
If I use NVL in the query it'll effect only when the query fetches some rows.
I've tried with formula columns. for example in the formula column
IF :ordered_qty IS NULL THEN
v_ordered_qty :=0;
ELSE
v_ordered_qty := :ordered_qty;
END IF;
return(v_ordered_qty);
I've assigned this formula column as source to the Ordered Qty Filed. Then also its not working.
Any help in this regards is highly apprecialted

Vij

may be you can modify your code like below:

Query regarding updating rows in JTable

Query regarding updating rows in JTable
Hello,
I have a JTable with 6 columns and 1000s of rows (which are data read from flat files)
I can select 1 or more rows and change the values of the
columns. each time I do this I need to update the values
in the flat file.
Currently I assign the updated Jtable values to a vector
Vector rowVector = (Vector)defaultModel.getDataVector();
then I iterate over the vector and compare the values with the (old) data
in the JTable.
            for(int rowCount = 0; rowCount<rowVector.size(); rowCount++){
                Vector v = (Vector)rowVector.elementAt(rowCount);
                    //smsList is the Vector that contains the old JTable values
                    for(int i=0; i<smsList.size(); i++){
                            //If colums values have been changed; add that
                            //vector value to another vector
                            selectedsmsList.add(smsList.get(i));
            for(int i=0; i<selectedsmsList.size(); i++){
                     //Update the values in the flat file
            }This works fine except that it takes ages to iterate over the updated vecor and un-updated,old vector; is there any way to directly get the list of rows that were updated in the jtable; so that I can directly do an I/O operation to update the jtablke values?

Just a suggestion.
You could add a listener and use a vector of booleans to keep track of the rows that have been changed. You could then iterate through this boolean vector and update the changed rows.
See
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/table.html#modelchange
Don't know whether this will be helpful.

Displaying SQL Query results in rows instead of Columns

Hi,
I'm fairly new to Oracle so forgive me if this is a really stupid question.
I used Mysql for a while and if I wanted to display query results in rows instead of columns I could end the SQL command with '\G' instead of a semicolon.
This would give me output like...
Column_1: AAAA
Column_2: BBBB
Column_3: CCCC
Instead of the normal
Column_1 Column_2 Column_3
AAAAAA BBBBBBB CCCCCCC
Is there an equivalent in SQLPlus to the MySQL \G termination?
Thanks.
John

It is certainly not a stupid question, but pivoting is a very frequently asked and answered question:

[Excel] Running a SQL Query to delete rows

Hello Experts,
Background: I am attempting to use a dba of my companies time keeping system and implement it with Power BI tools. Given the file size restrictions within Power Bi itself I need to lower my file size by removing all time logs from
inactive employees.
I have a question regarding whether or not you can use a sql query to delete rows in excel. I have roughly 200,000+ rows in my excel spreadsheet. I am attempting to delete all rows where an employee equals inactive. I have attempted to
delete these rows by sorting them and doing a bulk delete and clear contents, but it seems to crash my excel every time. My thought process is that using a query that does a timed delete might put less of a burden on deleting the massive amount of data.
I would like to use this: DELETE * FROM [Table_(...)_Actual$] WHERE [Current] = "Inactive" (Will add more once I know it is possible to use sql queries in Excel.
Any information on whether or not this is possible would be appreciated.
Regards,
Link

Running SQL Query in Excel is possible, however, the delete query is not supported in Excel.
You are more restricted in deleting Excel data than data from a relational data source. In a relational database, "row" has no meaning or existence apart from "record"; in an Excel worksheet, this is not true. You can delete values
in fields (cells). Please see:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257819/en-us
One workaround : Use update query to set the rows as null, then use select query.
e.g.
SQL = "update [sheet2$A1:B5] set name=null,age=null where name='andy'"
cnn.Execute SQL
SQL = "select name,age from [sheet2$A1:B5] where name is not null"

But that won't reject strings like 'gfgG%dgh' which aren't pure alphabetic.
Try:
with test_data as (
select 'ghTYJYEhdfe' str from dual
union
select 'dfF5ssd' from dual
union
select 'rgth*dgheh' from dual
union
select 'ggf{' from dual

select *

where regexp_instr(str,'[^[:alpha:]]')=0;

Query for Multiple Rows as XML

Ok I've seen this topic in the forums, but have failed to get this to work within my process. Basically I have a process that has a user fill out a form, and upon submittal the form writes it's information to a database (via a data connection within the form that invokes a separate process upon submittal.), once this is done the main process is invoked and it's first step is to query that same database and bring back the data in a lower (now exposed) portion of the form that contains certain fields that track the issue history. The query brings back the xml document and I store it in an xml variable (xml_output). I then take this information and use the Set Value object to assign the returned nodes values to the location fields in the form. This works if the query returns only one row. But once the form is moved beyond the initial Task Assignment, (first user), and query returns more than just one row, the added nodes to not show up on the form, i.e I still just get information about the first row in my form. From what I've read the form should be able to recognize the xpath expression, and bring back all the nodes, by in a sense using instance manager to create an instance for each node on the form. My question is how can I get this to work. Jasmin if your still out there... Help!
Also We're using Adobe LiveCycle ES 8.0
created the process using Workbench
the form was reader enabled and saved as a dynamic PDF.
Thanks
Mike

Ok have done the binding of the schema to the form, and I'm getting the information to flow as it's supposed to. The problem I'm having now, (I know I'm having a bunch.) is that once I've placed the form into my process, and I use the set value operation to pre-fill information I get the form to flow, but the rest of the information that was previously filled in is blank. So I have checked the variable and nothing wrong there. It appears the problem is how I'm using the set value operation. If I don't use the set value operation, the form retains it's information. And if I use the set value by trying to set the subform value, the form retains it's information, but no pre-fill. I'm going to try to be a little more detailed here. The xml that is returned looks like this:

Flowed and positioned are actual subforms on the form that have their properties set as their names indicates. The entire path is /form1/Page1/flowed/positioned . The way I was able to get the form to flow correctly upon the injection of this xml data, was to bind the subforms in the form in this manner, positioned[*]. Designer didn't place the [*] for me so I had to do this myself. But once I previewed the document, the form pre-populated and created the necessary number of subforms and placed information into the fields correctly.
Now on the process side, I have created an xfaform variable that stores the form (bound to xsd.) information, and another xml variable that stores the query return that looks like the xml listed above (has an xsd associated with it for navigating xpath). My first operation performs the query (JDBC- Query Multiple Rows as XML) and stores it into the xml variable. The next step of the process is the Set Value operation which is supposed to inject the xml data retrieved from the query into the form. Initially I tried the an xpath similar to the following:
/process_data/object/data/form1/page1/flowed/positioned = /xml_data/flowed/positioned.
No dice. On this one the form retains the information filled out by the user (didn't explain this earlier, the form is filled out first, and upon submittal the process starts.), but doesn't pre-populate the bottom part of the form. Next I tried the following xpath:
/process_data/object/data/form1/page1/flowed = /xml_data/flowed/positioned.
This time it retained the form information which was filed in by the user, but the bottom part is becomes hidden! Didn't understand this. But I started to kinda think that I had to navigate he xpath in order to correctly inject the xml into the form. That being said my next attempt was:
/process_data/object/data/form1/page1 = /xml_data
My thinking was that if on location, I stop at page1, the xml in the variable will allow it to navigate correctly through the form. Well it worked, but too well. The top part of the form is blank, but the bottom portion is pre-populated correctly. Now I'm stuck. Not sure how to get the rest of the information in the form. I thought about creating variables form each of the fields and then re-populating them after the injection of xml, but that didn't seem practical. I'm almost positive it's something I'm not doing correctly with xpath. Anyway, thanks for all your help on this.

Query Returning Multiple Rows

I have a problem with a query that includes 5 tables!
Equipment ec, (ec.cost, ec.workid)
Material mc, (mc.cost, mc.workid)
Labor lc, (lc.cost, lc.workid)
Work wo, (wo.workid)
Entity en
The primary key is the work id
The columns I need to extract are all the same - "cost"
The problem is that I need to extract the costs from all the tables (equipment/labor/material) where the work "id" is equal to the work "id".
The work table has a unique wo.workid but the other three tables can have
multiple nn.workid ('s).
This is the query I am working from at this time...
SELECT distinct wo.workid, wo.description, wo.supervisor, wo.acctnum,
wo.shop, wo.woaddress, wo.initiatedate,
TO_NUMBER (TO_CHAR (wo.initiatedate, 'MM')) AS mnth,
TO_NUMBER (TO_CHAR (wo.initiatedate, 'YYYY')) AS yr,
wo.actualfinishdate, wo.assetgroup, wo.unitsaccompdesc,
wo.unitsaccomplished,
sum(decode (lc.cost, 0, null, lc.cost)) labour_cost,
lc.laborname AS labour_name,
SUM (decode(mc.COST, 0, null, mc.cost)) AS material_cost,
mc.description AS mat_desc,
SUM (decode(ec.COST, 0, null, ec.cost)) AS equipment_cost,
ec.description AS equip_desc, en.module
FROM work wo,
equipment ec,
material mc,
labor lc,
entity en
WHERE (lc.COST <> 0 AND mc.COST <> 0 AND ec.COST <> 0)
AND wo.applytoentity = en.code
AND mc.workid = wo.workid
AND ec.workid = wo.workid
AND lc.workid = wo.workid
GROUP BY wo.workid,
wo.description,
wo.supervisor,
wo.acctnum,
wo.shop,
wo.woaddress,
wo.initiatedate,
wo.actualfinishdate,
wo.assetgroup,
wo.unitsaccompdesc,
wo.unitsaccomplished,
lc.COST,
lc.laborname,
mc.COST,
mc.description,
ec.COST,
ec.description,
en.module
any help would be appreciated!

Hi John...
I am still getting duplicate values.
When the query grabs a value from the labour table it also grabs the values from the other tables and puts them in the same row... There are many rows in the three costs
tables and only one in the work table.
I have a dump of the rows but I cannot find a way to save it here.
Here is a cut down version of the data I am retrieving.
