1 row created.
SQL> insert into t (col5) values ('x,y');
1 row created.
SQL> insert into t (col5) values ('a,b,c,d');
1 row created.

How to parse a delimited string and insert into different columns?

Hi Experts,
I need to parse a delimited string ':level1_value:level2_value:level3_value:...' to 'level1_value', 'level2_value', etc., and insert them into different columns of one table as one row:
Table_Level (Level1, Level2, Level3, ...)
I know I can use substr and instr to get level value one by one and insert into Table, but I'm wondering if there's better ways to do it?
Thanks!

The "bar" or "pipe" symbol is a special character, also called a metacharacter.
If you want to use it as a literal in a regular expression, you will need to escape it with a backslash character (\).

PS - it works for semi-colon character ";" because it is not a metacharacter. So its literal value is considered by the regex engine for matching.

How to insert the Formatted date value and insert into the database

Hi All,
I am having requirement of inserting the date value in to the datbase. I'm already getting the value from file as MM-DD-YYYY. Getting exception while transforming the values through the transform activity. I'm using format fate function but it is inserting null value in to the database.
Any help from anyone would bve appreciated.
Thanks,
CH

Hi,
your input date format is fixed right? So, in the transform you can split each your date, which is in 'MM-DD-YYYY' format ... extract day, month, year.
After that ... just put these values in order acording to the format of 'xsd:date' data type which is '[-]CCYY-MM-DDZ'.
XPath function 'xp20:format-dateTime()' works only with 'xsd:dateTime' data type, which has format '[-]CCYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ'.
So, in your case it could be:
<xsl:variable name="day" select="substring($inputDate,4,2)"/>
<xsl:variable name="month" select="substring($inputDate,1,2)"/>
<xsl:variable name="day" select="substring($inputDate,7,4)"/>
<xsl:variable name="outputDate">
<xsl:value-of select="$year"/>
<xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="$month"/>
<xsl:text>-</xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="$day"/>
</xsl:variable>

Martin.

How can I separate one column into multiple column?

How can I separate one column into multiple column?
This is what I have:
BUYER_ID ATTRIBUTE_NAME ATTRIBUTE_VALUE
0001 PHONE_NUMBER 555-555-0001
0001 EMAIL [email protected]
0001 CURRENCY USD
0002 PHONE_NUMBER 555-555-0002
0002 EMAIL [email protected]
0002 CURRENCY USD
0003 PHONE_NUMBER 555-555-0003
0003 EMAIL [email protected]
0003 CURRENCY CAD
This is what I would like to have:
BUYER_ID PHONE_NUMBER EMAIL CURRENCY
0001 555-555-0001 [email protected] USD
0002 555-555-0002 [email protected] USD
0003 555-555-0003 [email protected] CAD
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is another solution. Suppose your actual table's name is test(which has the redundant data). create a table like this:
CREATE TABLE test2 (BUYER_ID number(10),PHONE_NUMBER varchar2(50),EMAIL varchar2(50),CURRENCY varchar2(50));
then you will type this procedure:
declare
phone_number_v varchar2(50);
EMAIL_v varchar2(50);
CURRENCY_v varchar2(50);
cursor my_test is select * from test;
begin
for my_test_curs in my_test loop
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO phone_number_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='PHONE_NUMBER';
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO EMAIL_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='EMAIL';
select ATTRIBUTE_VALUE INTO CURRENCY_v from test
where person_id=my_test_curs.person_id
and attribute_name ='CURRENCY';
INSERT INTO test2
VALUES (my_test_curs.person_id,phone_number_v,EMAIL_v,CURRENCY_v);
END LOOP;
END;
Then you will create your final table like this:
create table final_table as select * from test2 where 1=2;
After that write this code:
INSERT ALL
into final_table
SELECT DISTINCT(BUYER_ID),PHONE_NUMBER,EMAIL,CURRENCY
FROM TEST2;
If you have a huge amount of data in your original table this solution may take a long time to do what you need.

NULL values are inserted into interface table for read only columns

Hi, I developed a custom Integrator where some of the columns has to be displayed as read only in the layout. I am using SQL content to populate the data. When I upload the data NULL values are inserted into table interface? Is there any work around for this?
Thanks

Doesn't WebADI drive you insane at times?
I must say, when it's all working it looks great and it is very user friendly (end-user that is, NOT for developers!) but before you get to that stage… please please Oracle invest some time making Web ADI a bit more logical an coherent, get the obvious bugs out, please let us not have to update BNE tables anymore to get things done.
Anyway, I sorted this one out by setting the Width to zero (0) in the Layout. HTH.

Reg: read excel column and insert into table.

hi Friends,
      i wanted to read the data from Excel and insert into in my oracle tables.
      can you provide the link or example script.
    how to read the column value from excel and insert into table.
please help.

< unnecessary reference to personal blog removed by moderator >
Here are the steps:
1) First create a directory and grant read , write , execute to the user from where you want to access the flat files and load it.
2) Write a generic function to load PIPE delimited flat files:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD ( p_table in varchar2,
p_dir in varchar2 DEFAULT ‘YOUR_DIRECTORY_NAME’,
P_FILENAME in varchar2,
p_ignore_headerlines IN INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
p_delimiter in varchar2 default ‘|’,
p_optional_enclosed in varchar2 default ‘”‘ )
return number
is
– FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD
– PURPOSE: Load the flat files i.e. only text files to Oracle
– tables.
– This is a generic function which can be used for
– importing any text flat files to oracle database.
– PARAMETERS:
– P_TABLE
– Pass name of the table for which import has to be done.
– P_DIR
– Name of the directory where the file is been placed.
– Note: The grant has to be given for the user to the directory
– before executing the function
– P_FILENAME
– The name of the flat file(a text file)
– P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES
– By default we are passing 1 to skip the first line of the file
– which are headers on the Flat files.
– P_DELIMITER
– Dafault “|” pipe is been passed.
– P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
– Optionally enclosed by ‘ ” ‘ are been ignored.

‘.txt’,
‘_’ || TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, ‘DD_MON_RRRR_HH24_MI_SS_AM’) || ‘.txt’
commit;
RETURN L_ROWCOUNT;
end TABLE_LOAD;
Note: when you run the function then it will also modify the source flat file with timestamp , so that we can have the track like which file was loaded .
3) Check if the user is having UTL_FILE privileges or not :
SQL> SELECT OWNER,
OBJECT_TYPE
FROM ALL_OBJECTS
WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ‘UTL_FILE’
AND OWNER =<>;
If the user is not having the privileges then grant “UTL_FILE” to user from SYS user:
SQL> GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_FILE TO <>;
4) In the function I have used two tables like:
import_hist table and badlog table to track the history of the load and another to check the bad log if it occurs while doing the load .
Under the same user create an error log table to log the error out records while doing the import:
SQL> CREATE TABLE badlog
errm VARCHAR2(4000),
data VARCHAR2(4000) ,
error_date TIMESTAMP
Under the same user create Load history table to log the details of the file and tables that are imported with a track of records loaded:
SQL> create table IMPORT_HIST
FILENAME varchar2(200),
TABLE_NAME varchar2(200),
NUM_OF_REC number,
IMPORT_DATE DATE
5) Finally run the PLSQL block and check if it is loading properly or not if not then check the badlog:
Execute the PLSQL block to import the data from the USER:
SQL> declare
P_TABLE varchar2(200):=<>;
P_DIR varchar2(200):=<>;
P_FILENAME VARCHAR2(200):=<>;
v_Return NUMBER;
BEGIN
v_Return := TABLE_LOAD(
P_TABLE => P_TABLE,
P_DIR => P_DIR,
P_FILENAME => P_FILENAME,
P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES => P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES,
P_DELIMITER => P_DELIMITER,
P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED => P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘v_Return = ‘ || v_Return);
end;
6) Once the PLSQL block is been executed then check for any error log table and also the target table if the records are been successfully imported or not.

However, I am getting the error 'ORA- 01461 : Can Bind a long value only for insert into a column error'.
I tried a lot but cant get rid of.
Any help gurus ?

You have an error in the code:
1. you don't provide a value for 'what' - you have to tell Oracle what it should execute when it submits the job.
And remember - with ISUBMIT the next_date parameter has datatype VARCHAR2 - SUBMIT uses datatype DATE. So make sure you provide a VARCHAR2 value and do not rely on implicit conversion.

Displaying single value (Record) into multiple columns

Hi,
Thanks for immediate reply.
PH1, PH2, PH3, ... will go more columns based on parameter , what we are passing.An single SQL statement cannot have a dynamic number of columns based on the data itself. The projection (columns returned) have to be known before any data is fetched... and that includes some 'parameter' value.
{thread:id=2309172}
You can build a query dynamically, based on a parameter or even on the data, but 99 times out 100 people use dynamic queries where they are not needed.
Perhaps explain to us what you are really trying to achieve and why, and we could suggest some better way.

Split data and insert into different rows

I have a string like 'sfdsf,sfdsf,sfsd,qweqeqw,iuoi,"
I have created a single column table
I have to extract data from first untill comma(,) occurs and insert into the table like the following
sfdsdf
sfdsf
sfsd
qweqeqw
iuoi
Please help me how to do it

Or a Single SQL query
SELECT trim(',' from DECODE(ROWNUM,1,SUBSTR(STR,1,INSTR(STR,',',1)),
                                    LENGTH(STR)-LENGTH(REPLACE(STR,','))+1,SUBSTR(STR,INSTR(STR,',',-1,1)),
                                     SUBSTR(STR,INSTR(STR,',',1,ROWNUM-1), INSTR(STR,',',1,ROWNUM)-INSTR(STR,',',1,ROWNUM-1))
                               )) STR1
                 FROM (SELECT 'sfdsf,sfdsf,sfsd,qweqeqw,iuoi' STR FROM DUAL),ALL_TABLES
                 WHERE ROWNUM <= LENGTH(STR)-LENGTH(REPLACE(STR,','))+1
                  ORDER BY ROWNUM

Looking data from more than one table and inserting into another.

Hello,
I am giving you the Table structures as per my requirement..
CREATE TABLE TEMP_A
(NAME VARCHAR2(100) primary key);
CREATE TABLE TEMP_B
(STRUCTURE VARCHAR2(10));
CREATE TABLE TEMP_C
( NAME VARCHAR2(100),
STRUCTURE VARCHAR2(10),
VALUE VARCHAR2(10));
Alter table TEMP_C
add constraint fk_name_tempc foreign key(name) references TEMP_A(name)
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('SMITH');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('ALLEN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('WARD');
INSERT INTO TEMP_A VALUES('JONES');
COMMIT;
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_MIN');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_TYP');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('IN_MAX');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('DIP');
INSERT INTO TEMP_B VALUES('TIM');
COMMIT;
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','C1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','C2','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('SMITH','D1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('ALLEN','D2','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('ALLEN','R1','');
INSERT INTO TEMP_c VALUES('WARD','R2','');
COMMIT;
i want to say is it should insert into table 'TEMP_C' values as :
For 'SMITH' there should be (6 * 3) = 18 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'C1')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'C2')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for SMITH to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'D1')
For 'ALLEN' there should be (6 * 2) = 12 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for ALLEN to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'D2')
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for ALLEN to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'R1')
For 'WARD' there should be (6 * 1) = 6 records.
( 6 distinct values of TEMP_B for WARD to be inserted into TEMP_C against 'R2')
Like this if there are records for JONES also , it should also do the same way( Depending on the No. of records present
in the table 'TEMP_C' for 'JONES').
Thanks in advance,
Amkotz

How to extract data from xml and insert into Oracle table

Hi,

Insert into multiple table view

I have a view with multiple table query and and INSTEAD OF trigger on the view that inserts into multiple tables. When I attempt to do a commit out of a ADF Creation Form, I get the following error: ORA-01779: cannot modify a column which maps to a non key-preserved table ORA-06512: at line 1.
Has anyone had success inserting into multiple tables via a view that has more than one table?
Thanks,
Lisa

Lisa,
Sounds like your instead-of trigger may not be being called and you are trying to insert directly into the view.
I did write a [url http://stegemanoracle.wordpress.com/2006/03/15/using-updatable-views-with-adf/]blog entry about using a view with instead-of triggers last year.

Insert into multiple tables; grab id from first

I apologize if this has been answered elsewhere, but I tried
searching and got no results.
I'm trying to insert the contents of one form into two
tables. After inserting some fields into one table, I want to grab
the key/id from the first table into the second table with the
other fields.
I've tried a few different things, including trying to use
SCOPE_IDENTITY(), but just kept getting lots of errors.
The current version of my code works perfectly, *except for
the fact that it doesn't insert the ID*!
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? or offer another way
of doing this?
Thanks for your help, as usual.

The EmployeeID is not inserted because the getMyID query
cannot find the newly inserted record. When using a UUID to
identify the new records ..
<cfquery name="qAddDeptHead" datasource="#db#"
result="result">
INSERT INTO Employee(... , EmpUUID)
VALUES ( ... , '#CreateUUID()#')
</cfquery>
You have to use that _same_ UUID to find the record, _not_
create a new one.
<cfquery name="getMyID" datasource="#db#">
SELECT EmployeeID, EmpUUID
FROM Employee
WHERE Employee.EmpUUID='#UseTheSameUUIDFromTheFirstQuery#'
</cfquery>
As an aside, you could probably do this in two queries not
three. Just drop the second SELECT query and use an INSERT
INTO/SELECT .. FROM Table statement instead. Plus you should also
consider using cfqueryparam for your query parameters. It has many
benefits.

There are a few options. For ColdFusion 8, you could use the
result attribute. After running the INSERT you can grab the new
EmployeeID by using #yourResult.IDENTITYCOL#
<cfquery name="qAddDeptHead" datasource="#db#"
result="yourResult">
INSERT INTO Employee ( Columns here )
VALUES (... values here ...)
</cfquery>
For earlier versions, you can either use SCOPE_IDENTITY() or
a UUID value - as you are currently doing now.

If you use SCOPE_IDENTITY() turn off the rowcount, or the
query variable "qAddDeptHead" may be undefined when you try and use
it.
<cfquery name="qAddDeptHead" datasource="#db#"
result="yourResult">
SET NOCOUNT ON;
INSERT INTO Employee ( Columns here )
VALUES (... values here ...)
SELECT EmployeeID AS NewEmployeeID
SET NOCOUNT OFF;
</cfquery>
<cfquery name="qNewEmpPosition" datasource="#db#">
INSERT INTO EmployeePositions(EmployeeID, .... )
VALUES ( #qAddDeptHead.NewEmployeeID#, ....)
</cfquery>
