Select query based on joining of tables from different database is taking too long

Hi Team,
Select query on table with millions of records is taking very long time. It took 50mins, the below query is joining on multiple table from two databases DB1.dbo.Table1 contains 100 million records and also Table3 and Table4 (of different database) might
contain close to 1million records.
Select T1.*
From DB1.dbo.Table1 T1
Join DB1.dbo.Table2 T2 on RTRIM(T1.Col3) = RTRIM(T2.Col3)
Join Table4 CA on RTRIM(T1.Col1) + T2.Col2 = CA.Col1
Join Table3 U on CA.Col2 = U.Col2 AND RTRIM(T2.Col2) = U.Col3
Where U.Col4 NOT IN ('A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'A4', 'A5', 'A6','A7','A8','A9')
And (T1.flg IS NULL OR T1.flg = 'N')
And LTRIM(RTRIM(T2.Col2)) NOT IN ('B1','B2')
How can i improve the performance of this query. Actual thing is update the data in Db1.dbo.table1 based on the conditions but if the select is taking close to 1hr then update will take hours together. Indexes already implemented on all the tables.
Thanks,
Eshwar.

Thanks.
Join Table4 CA on RTRIM(T1.Col1) + T2.Col2 = CA.Col1
This join is not working with spaces if Rtrim is not used.

How do you join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery

I am trying to join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery. I can extract data from each of the tables without a problem. However, when I combine the select statements using a subquery I get the Oracle error *'ORA-00936: missing expression'*. Since each SELECT statement executes on its own without error I don't understand what is missing. The result set I am trying to get is to match up the LINE_ID from PDTABLE_12_1 in schema DD_12809 with the MAT_DESCRIPTION from table PDTABLE_201 in schema RA_12809.
The query is as follows:
sql = "SELECT [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].LINE_ID FROM [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1] JOIN " _
+ "(SELECT [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201].MAT_DESCRIPTION " _
+ "FROM [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201]) AS FAB " _
+ "ON [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS"
The format of the query is copied from a SQL programming manual.
I also tried executing the query using a straight JOIN on the two tables but got the same results. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

I believe you are receiving the error because you are trying to JOIN on a column that doesn't exist. For example you are trying to join on FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS but that column does not exist in the subquery.
If you want to do a straight join without a subquery you could do the following
SELECT DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.LINE_ID
,       FAB.MAT_DESCRIPTION
FROM    DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1
JOIN    RA_12809.PDTABLE_201    AS FAB ON DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS HTH!

How to join tables from different databases (DBLink/DB connection )

Hello,
i have an issue and i hope you could help me to solve it. My problem is: I want to create native sql select which joins two tables from different DB (both of them are ORACLE, one of them internal, another one - external). I have found several notes and posts, but without any success. Db connection exists in dbcon table, so this part of my problem has been solved.
I would like something like that:
select * from table1@xxx inner join table2.
i can not split this select into two separate ones, because both tables store over 30 mln. entries and i do not want to create any copies of them.
Br,

Hi,
you might need to create a DB-Link on DB level and use EXEC SQL.
Lots of stuff on google about this, like

No Easy Way to Join on Tables from Different Schemas

Hi,
The company policy does not allow to join on tables from different schemas or use db links...
I'm tasked to come up with a Perl script that does exactly that - allows for the SELECT statement to do several joins on 3 different schemas. In addition 1 of the schemas is on the different host altogether.
Upping the privileges for my user and allowing db links is not an option...Can someone, please help me to understand on a conceptual level how would I use Perl and what logic would it have and what would it (perl) do?
Thank you,

Court in the wrong job... ;)

Iam using 3015 network printer. while iam printing from word it is taking too long to print

Respected sir,
I am using 3015 printer. when ever i give print it is taking too long time nearly 1 minute . there is no problem with the network

Let's set a static IP address for the printer:
- Print a Network Config Page from the front of the printer. Note the printer's IP address.
- Type that IP address into a browser to reveal the printer's internal settings.
- Choose the Networking tab, then Wireless along the left side, then the IPv4 tab.
- On this screen you want to set a Manual IP. You need to set an IP address outside the range that the router automatically sets (called the DHCP range). You can find the DHCP range of the router using its internal settings page or in its manual. Use the CD that came with your router or type the router's IP address (ends in .1) into a browser.
- Use 255.255.255.0 for the subnet (unless you know it is different, if so, use that)
- Enter your router's IP (on the Network Config Page) for the gateway and first DNS. Leave the second one blank.
- Click 'Apply'.
Now, shut down the router and printer, start the router, wait, then start the printer.
After this you may need to redo 'Add a Printer' using the new IP address.

Dealing with tables from different databases?

Hi. I'm a newbie to Visual Studio 2012 and stuck on how to interact with different datasets.
I am building a report that is associated with with two tables, each from a different database. The
master_flat table with the primary key matter_number is from the first database and it contains all the columns I need that should show up in the report layout I've built. However,
billing_table with the primary key matter_number contains a flag that I go by which I must use to determine whether each matter should come through in the reporting or not.
I've set the master_flat as dataset1 and the billing_table as dataset2. Now, what is the best way in Visual studio 2012 to filter by the matters that has flag "N" in dataset2?
Thanks

We are way out of sync. Lets synchronize. I'm not sure which question you are refering to. Is it the "C# or VBnet" question or is it the "One or two database Question". It seem like it would be the database question since you
should know which programming language you are using.
Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS). After login, there is an explorer where you can browse the databases, tables, and fields in the tables. You should be able to view how you build the database. If you right click any tables and then
"Script Table As : Select To : New Query Editor Window". There is an execute button to run the query. You can aslo edit the query. I usually test all my qeuries in SSMS before actually using them in an application. I would get a JOIN
SQL working in SSMS.
If you let me know if you are using VBnet or C# I will write a simple LINQ. Even better if you supply me the names of the columns of the two tables.

Joining two tables from two databases

Query taking too long to finish

Hi,
I'm running a query which is
Delete from msg where ID IN (select ID from deletedtrans );
It's taking too long to complete, it has been running for 24 hours already and not completed executing the query, I cancelled the query. I don't understand why it's taking too long, does anyone have any idea? I feel that this query should not take too long to complete

That seems to be too small piece of information to comment anything.
1. How many records are there in "deletedtrans" table ?
2. How many records from "msg" table are expected to be deleted ?
3. Are statistics up-to-date on "msg" and "deletedtrans" tables ?
4. Is "ID" column defined as NULL or NOT NULL in both "msg" and "deletedtrans" tables ? (Not sure whether this will cause any problem, but...)
5. Is this statement being executed when other users/applications are accessing/updating "msg" table ?

SELECT QUERY BASED ON SECONDARY INDEX

Hi all,
CAN ANYONE TELL ME HOW TO WRITE SELECT QUERY BASED ON SECONDARY INDEX.
IN WHAT WAY DOES IT IMPROVE PERFORMANCE.
i KNOW WHEN CREATING SECONDARY INDEX I NEED TO GIVE AN INDEX NO -iT SHOULD BE ANY NUMBER RIGHT?
I HAVE TO LIST ALL PRIMARY KEYS FIRST AND THEN THE FIELD FOR WHICH I AM CREATING SECONDARY INDEX RIGHT?
LETS SAY I HAVE 2 PRIMARY KEYS AND I WANT TO CREATE SEONDARY INDEX FOR 2 FIELDS THEN
I NEED TO CREATE A SEPERTE SECONDARY INDEX FOR EACH ONE OF THOSE FIELDS OR ONE SHOULD BE ENOUGH
pLS LET ME KNOW IF IAM WRONG

HI,
If you cannot use the primary index to determine the result set because, for example, none of the primary index fields occur in the WHERE or HAVINGclauses, the system searches through the entire table (full table scan). For this case, you can create secondary indexes, which can restrict the number of table entries searched to form the result set.
You create secondary indexes using the ABAP Dictionary. There you can create its columns and define it as UNIQUE. However, you should not create secondary indexes to cover all possible combinations of fields.
Only create one if you select data by fields that are not contained in another index, and the performance is very poor. Furthermore, you should only create secondary indexes for database tables from which you mainly read, since indexes have to be updated each time the database table is changed. As a rule, secondary indexes should not contain more than four fields, and you should not have more than five indexes for a single database table.
What to Keep in Mind for Secondary Indexes:

Absolute dynamic select query with dynamic join and where

Has anyone ever tried creating an absolutely dynamic SELECT query with dynamic Join and Where conditions.
I have a requirement of creating such a query in an Utility Class, and i have written the code. But its throwing my sysntax errors.
Please let me know where am I going wrong OR is it really possible to create such a dynamic Query??
 SELECT (FIELDS) INTO TABLE IT_TABLES
 FROM ( (ME->TABLE1) inner join ( me->table2 )
 on ( on_condition ) )
 WHERE (me->where_fields).
Ags.

It worked for me in a following way:
select * into corresponding fields of table <result_table>
 from (join_string)
 where (l_where).
Where the contents of join_string were dynamically build using concatenation. So it will be something like
concatenate ME->TABLE1 'as a INNER JOIN' me->table2 'as b ON (' into join_string separated by space.
<...>
add here matching/reference colums, something like
concatenate 'a~' me->TABLE1_JOIN_COL into temp1.
concatenate 'b~' me->TABLE2_JOIN_COL into temp2.
concatenate join_string temp1 '=' temp2 into join_string separated by space.
<...>
concatenate join_string ')' into join_string separated by space.
And then use similar approach for l_where variable.

Select Query with Inner Join

Dear Experts,
I have writen a inner join code with MKPF and MSEG which taking too much time, while I have used index.

MBLNR
My Select Query is :
SELECT B~MATNR
               B~MAT_KDAUF
               B~MAT_KDPOS
               B~BWART

               B~MEINS
               B~AUFNR
    INTO TABLE IT_MSEG
    FROM MKPF AS A
      INNER JOIN MSEG AS B
         ON AMBLNR EQ BMBLNR
        AND AMJAHR EQ BMJAHR
    WHERE A~BUDAT IN BUDAT
      AND B~MATNR IN MATNR
      AND B~WERKS IN WERKS
      AND B~LGORT IN LGORT
      AND B~BWART IN BWART.

hi,
you can use for all entries it will work faster then joins
About it:*
FOR ALL ENTRIES WHERE
Syntax
... FOR ALL ENTRIES IN itab WHERE ... col operator itab-comp ...
Effect
If the addition FOR ALL ENTRIES is specified before the language element WHERE, then the components comp of the internal table itab can be used as operands when comparing with relational operators.
The internal table itab must have a structured line type and the component comp must be compatible with the column col.
The logical expression sql_cond of the WHERE condition can comprise various logical expressions by using AND and OR. However, if FOR ALL ENTRIES is specified, there must be at least one Comparison with a column of the internal table itab, which can be specified either statistically or dynamically (Release 6.40 and higher). In a statement with a SELECTstatement with FOR ALL ENTRIES, the addition ORDER BY can only be used with the addition PRIMARY KEY.
The whole logical expression sql_cond is evaluated for each individual line of the internal table itab. The resulting set of the SELECT statement is the union of the resulting sets from the individual evaluations. Duplicate lines are automatically removed from the resulting set. If the internal table itab is empty, the whole WHERE statement is ignored and all lines in the database are put in the resulting set.
Notes
In Release 6.10 and higher, the same internal table can be specified after FOR ALL ENTRIES and after INTO.
The addition FOR ALL ENTRIES is only possible before WHERE conditions of the SELECT statement.
Example
Exporting all flight data for a specified departure city. The relevant airlines and flight numbers are first put in an internal table entry_tab, which is evaluated in the WHERE condition of the subsquent SELECT statement.
PARAMETERS p_city TYPE spfli-cityfrom.
TYPES: BEGIN OF entry_tab_type,
         carrid TYPE spfli-carrid,
         connid TYPE spfli-connid,
       END OF entry_tab_type.
DATA: entry_tab   TYPE TABLE OF entry_tab_type,
      sflight_tab TYPE SORTED TABLE OF sflight
                       WITH UNIQUE KEY carrid connid fldate.
SELECT carrid connid
       FROM spfli
       INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE entry_tab
       WHERE cityfrom = p_city.
SELECT carrid connid fldate
       FROM sflight
       INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE sflight_tab
       FOR ALL ENTRIES IN entry_tab
       WHERE carrid = entry_tab-carrid AND
             connid = entry_tab-connid.
hope it will help you

Hi ,
Is it Possible.
i want to run select query based on date condition.
Eg...
if the date between 01-jan-01 and 01-jan-05 then
select * from table1;
if the date between 02-jan-05 and 01-jan-08 then
select * from table2;
Becaz i have data in 2 diffrent tables , based on the date condition i wnt to run the select statement to diffrent tables.
i dont want plsql here Just SQL needed.
thanks,

Edited by: infant_raj on May 5, 2009 11:48 PM

Helo Kanish,
this is not the one i was asking..
wht i mean was .
i use bind variable to get date while running the select statement , once i get the date then i want to choose any one of the table to run select query.
EG..
select col1,col2 from table1 where date between only if 01-jan-01 and 01-jan-05;
select col1,col2 from table2 where date between only if 02-jan-05 and 01-jan-08;
Run any one of the two . not all
thanks,

Select query based LOV for tabular form attributes

Hi HTMLDB Team,
Congrats u all for the new release of HTMLDB in htmldb.oracle.com.
I badly need a solution of the below problem.
Say , i have table called user_col_comments now i want to display the table_name ,column_name and comments in a tabular form.I displayed only one row for the tabular form.Now i create a select query based LOV for attribute table_name where i got all table_name in drop down list.
Point is that after selecting any data from drop down table list i want to get the corresponding fields to be populated in column_name attributes.How can i wrote the select query based LOV for the attibute column_name.
I wrote it as 'select column_name d,column_name r from user_col_comments where table_name=:TABLE_NAME Its not working?
Similarly i want same thing to display for comments after matching both table_name and column_name.
Any solution to get rid of those problem will be highly appreciable...
If u need my htmldb.oracle.com userid and password to solve the problem i will sure let u email it.
Cheers,
Eman

hi rchalton,
can u plz little bit more clearer .I know hopefully u can imagine the problem and may u guide me thru proper way.....One think i understand that there must be multiple process and submit but "only when..." that u have said i cant understand that part........
U are welcome to give me proper solution.....
Thanks for the reply ....atleast one can pay hid to me.....

SELECT Query design with JOINS

Dear Users,
In one of our requirements, we have a SELECT query which joins a few tables together and selects a few fields from each table.
Example: Fields 1,2 and 3 from Table 1
Fields 4 and 5 from Table 2.
These fields are later displayed in the form of an ALV. However, the end user wants more fields on the output, let's say field 6 from Table 2. Due to this requirement, I have to amend the SELECT query to add field 6 of Table 2.
The above example is simple since it only involves 2 tables. However, in reality, we have a SELECT query with INNER JOINS on more than 6 tables and we don't want to change the code when someone asks for an additional field from one of these tables. Is there any way by which I can design my SELECT query (Using field symbols or dynamic selections etc) such that I don't have to amend the SELECT query and instead I should be able to maintain the field required by the user and it's source table name in a Z-Table and the SELECT automatically picks it up ? Thanks!
Vijay

better you can create a view on your 6 or more tables and select the fields .
Use Select * from <view name> every time in a select statement.
If you need a additional column then just change the view , there is no need to change of your select query.
with regards
