SQL Select Commands.

I am on 10G and can not get this statement to work. Any help would be great.
I need to determine percentage of profite. The first step I was able to do which was deterine the profite for all items.
"Select title, (retail-cost) profit from books;" (subtracting cost from retail) I need to divide the profit by the cost then multipy by 100 to determine the profit percentage.
Any help.
Thanks
Loosing my mind.

Simply
Select title, (retail-cost) profit, ((retail-cost)*100/cost) PercenProfit from books;"
{code}
thx

SQL: combined SELECT-command possible???

Hello Experts!
in the enclosed SQL-command I'm actually selecting from table EKPO only the open POs with no reference in order-history (EKBE). Now I want to enlarge/combine this command in that way that additionally records from order history (EKBE) with a special movement type in EKBE are selected on top.
Is it possible or do need a second select-command in the Z-application???
THANKS for a response.
Regards,
Bernd

The result should be all open orders!
1.) no EKBE
2.) EKBE but quantity of goods receipt (WE) is less than quantity of the PO
3.) intercompany-POs (stock transport order) have other movement types (like LFS and WA) which do not effect the status of the open PO until good-receipt movement is posted in the receiving plant .
First/Second condition is realized. Third condition is the gap until now.

Maximum length of SQL*Plus Command?

I'm typing a long query into SQL*Plus (Linux, version 9.2.0.1... yes, I know it's ancient).
If I run this query, all works fine:
select 'update myauditing_table set test_details='''||grantee||''' where myaudit_refno=''A.FE'';' from (select case when upper(value) in ('DBO','TRUE') then (select agg_concat(grantee) from dba_tab_privs where table_name='AUD$')
else (select 'AUDIT_TRAIL is set to: '||value from dual) end as grantee from v$parameter where upper(name)='AUDIT_TRAIL' order by grantee);
'UPDATEMYAUDITING_TABLESETTEST_DETAILS='''||GRANTEE||'''WHEREMYAUDIT_REFNO=''A.F
update myauditing_table set test_details='AUDIT_TRAIL is set to: DB' where myaud
it_refno='A.FE';(In other words, is SQL that generates other SQL: if AUDIT_TRAIL is set to something interesting, tell me who has access to the AUD$ table. And it's working fine... the agg_concat function mentioned is simply Tom Kyte's stragg function under another name, as lifted word-for-word from http://www.sqlsnippets.com/en/topic-11591.html)
Now this is what happens if I take out the linebreak after the mention of AUD$, so that the command is submitted as one single line of code:
SQL> select 'update myauditing_table set test_details='''||grantee||''' where myaudit_refno=''A.FE'';' from (select case when upper(value) in ('DBO','TRUE') then (select agg_concat(grantee) from dba_tab_privs where table_name='AUD$') else (select 'AUDIT_TRAIL is set to: '||value from dual) end as grantee from v$parameter where upper(name)='AUDIT_TRAIL' order by grantee);
SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "s set to: ..." - rest of line ignored.The error message indicates that the text has been 'split' at the 'AUDIT_TRAIL is set to...' bit, so that "s set to" is being treated as a new command, which is of course syntactically invalid. There is definitely no other change in text between the two versions, apart from the removal of a carriage return before the "else" statement.
Possibly a coincidence, but the first "s" in "s set to" appears at position 258 in the entire text... close to a possible 255 or 256 character limit, perhaps?
The same problem happens whether I run the command as a script (@mysql.sql) or typed in directly into a client SQL*Plus session. Is there some inherent limit to the length of commands that SQL*Plus can process in this version? My code runs fine on 10g and 11g databases/clients, whether it's on one line or two. Anyone know of a bug in 9i regarding this? And if there's a workaround (other than the obvious one of upgrading, of course!)

As mentioned, it's choking at the 258th character, not the 240th. Also, it's a SELECT statement, not a COPY command (one relates to the database, the other is an internal SQL*Plus feature). And someone else also kindly pointed out that SQL*Plus has a command limit length (i.e., database-related commands) of 2500 characters. So I don't think that's the issue.
I can be a bit more specific about this one now, though. I've a sequence of Solaris boxes running 9.2.0.1 up, and the results are that 9.2.0.1 is affected; and it's a problem for 9.2.0.7:
SQL> select * from v$version;

SP2-0734: unknown command beginning "s set to: ..." - rest of line ignored.But in 10.2.0.1, the problem disappears.
I am not sure, but it is perhaps related to metalink note 285913.1, since we did get some ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [qernsRowP], [1] errors in the alert log with a slightly different version of the above query. Changing the query obviously alters the test, though, so it may be completely unrelated.
Either way, I think it's definitely a version-specific SQL*Plus bug (though it would be nice if any other 9i owners out there could try it and report back!)
Anyway, the workaround is simply to submit the command on two separate lines, wherever possible. And of course... to upgrade.

Using a VARCHAR2 in a SELECT command

I'm trying to query for a given path in a hierarchy of products. However, I want to be able to have it return multiple values. So, I created a string in my function below that returns identifiers like "(34, 43, 54)" to be used in a SELECT IN. The function works fine, but the select command fails. How can I get the SELECT to work?
CREATE TABLE PRODUCT (
PRODID NUMBER,
PARENTID NUMBER,
CATID NUMBER,
ALIAS VARCHAR2(128)
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION FIND_PRODS_BY_PATH
(CAT_ID IN NUMBER, IN_PATH IN VARCHAR2) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS
PROD_IDS VARCHAR2(1024);
BEGIN
PROD_IDS := '(';
FOR PROD IN (SELECT PRODID, SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH(ALIAS, '/') AS PATH FROM PRODUCT
    WHERE CATID=CAT_ID CONNECT BY PRIOR PRODID=PARENTID)
LOOP
    IF REGEXP_LIKE(PROD.PATH, IN_PATH) THEN
      IF LENGTH(PROD_IDS) > 1 THEN
        PROD_IDS := PROD_IDS || ', ';
      END IF;
      PROD_IDS := PROD_IDS || PROD.PRODID;
    END IF;
END LOOP;
PROD_IDS := PROD_IDS || ')';
RETURN PROD_IDS;
END FIND_PRODS_BY_PATH;
*** Doesn't like the varchar2 returned from the function ***
SELECT * FROM PRODUCT WHERE PRODID IN FIND_PROD_BY_PATH(5, '/my/product/path/*');
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01722: invalid number
*** Function works ***
SELECT FIND_PROD_BY_PATH(5, '/my/product/path/*') FROM DUAL;
FIND_PRODS_BY_PATH(5, '/my/product/path/*')
(301152, 301202, 301252, 301302, 301403)

Your function is effectively returning a single string, which is not automatically devived into individual tokens for using in the IN clause.
How to circumvent this is best described here:

Exporting SQL Select statement to spreadsheet

Hi all, basic question that I couldn't find the answer to while googling and searching the Oracle documentation.
What is the code for exporting the result of a SQL Select statement to a spreadsheet such as Excel or Calc? In Oracle SQL Developer I tried saving the output as an XML file but it did not come out properly and I tried using EXPORT at the end of the statement but it gave an error message and I am not sure if this is the right command or what the syntax is. Thanks.

Problem on select command for table AFKO-GSTRS,AFKO-GSUZS

Hi all Abaper,
I faced a problem on using select command to select out the records from table AFKO (Production order header)
If i want to select out records that
AFKO-GSTRS >= 14.4.2006 (schedule start date)
AFKO-GSUZS >= 00:00:00 (schedule start time)
AFKO-GSTRS <= 15.4.2006 (schedule start date)
AFKO-GSUZS <= 00:00:00 (schedule start time)
The select statement:
SELECT AUFNR RSNUM DISPO GSTRS GSUZS
 INTO TABLE GT_AFKO FROM AFKO
 WHERE
 ( GSTRS >= GV_ST_DATE AND GSUZS >= GV_ST_TIME )
 AND ( GSTRS <= P_DATE AND GSUZS <= P_TIME ).
PS. if GV_ST_DATE = 14.4.06, GV_ST_TIME = '00:00:00'
 P_DATE AND = 15.4.06, P_TIME = '00:00:00'
This statement just select out records in
between 14-15.4.06 and at time '00:00:00'.
some Production orders at 14.04.06 ,'09:00:00' will be filter out.
I know the problem on that system just consider the date and time separately.
Does anyone know how to link the date and time up? or does any data type allow for combination of date and time data?
Thx for your reply in advance~

Thx Amit and Vijay.
The data type for GV_ST_DATE, P_DATE are SY-datum
and GV_ST_TIME, P_TIME are SY-UZEIT
Actually, P_DATE & P_TIME are user input parameters.
The records I wanna get are the period back 24 hrs from P_DATE & P_TIME.
For example, if user input P_DATE = 15.04.2006,
 P_TIME = '10:00:00'.
Then records selected out should be:
from 14.04.2006 , '10:00:00' TO 15.04.2006, '10:00:00'
if production order schedule start = 14.04.2006 , 09:00:00
it will be included.
if production order schedule start = 15.04.2006 , 01:00:00
it will be excluded.
However, the following statement cannot get the desired records.
Select....
where GSTRS >= GV_ST_DATE AND GSUZS >= GV_ST_TIME
AND GSTRS <= P_DATE AND GSUZS <= P_TIME.
Since GV_ST_TIME & P_TIME are both = '00:00:00',
for Production order( sch start date = 14.04.2006 , sch start time = 09:00:00 ), '09:00:00' is greater than '00:00:00' but it is not less than '00:00:00'.
Thus, this Pro. Order will be filtered!!
However can improve my SQL statement to get the desired data?

Long select command

hey, I have a real long select command and it goes down to the next row of my sql*plus. when i try to perform it it says the from statement is in the wrong spot but its just getting confused. how do i fix this?

Just manually edit the query and add adequate line feeds. That would make the query readable too.

SELECT Command on Associative Array

Guys,
I have a question on associative arrays in ORACLE.
I m working on one assignment where I am not allowed to create any object into the database e.g. Create temporary tables, use of cursors etc.
For data manipulation i used associative array, but at the end i want to show that result in pl/SQL developer.
I know that I can't use select command on associative arrays.
Any alternative/solution for it?
Also is there any way that i can write the contents of associative array to a .csv file?

user13478417 wrote:
I m working on one assignment where I am not allowed to create any object into the database e.g. Create temporary tables, use of cursors etc.Then cease to use Oracle - immediately. As you are violating your assignment constraints.
ALL SQL and anonymous PL/SQL code blocks you send to Oracle are parsed as cursors. And as you are not allowed to use cursors, it will be impossible to use Oracle as cursors is exactly what Oracle creates... and creates a lot of. For every single SQL statement. And every single anonymous PL./SQL block.
For data manipulation i used associative array, Why? Arrays is a poor choice in Oracle as a data structure most times as it is inferior in almost every single way to using a SQL table structure instead.
Pumping data into an array? That already severely limits scalability as the array requires expensive dedicated server (PGA) memory. It does not use the more scalable shared server (SGA) memory.
Manipulating data in an array? That requires a "+full structure scan+" each time as it does not have the indexing and partitioning features of a SQL table.
Running a SQL select on an array? That is using a cursor. That also means copying the entire array structure, as bind variable, from the PL/SQL engine to the SQL engine. An excellent way to waste memory resources and slow down performance... but hey you can still shout "+Look Ma, no --brains-- hands, I'm not using any SQL tables as dictated by my assignment!+".... +<sigh>+
Any alternative/solution for it?You mean besides using Oracle correctly ?
You could reload the shotgun and shoot yourself in the other foot too. That should distract you for from the pain in the first foot.

Sql delete command

I have one table emp, here emp having 3 fields, names like empno,ename,job.

I want to delete empno column and job column do not use rowid,fields.
I want output like this

send me command.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
By using unused command you can delate the specific column either logically and physically.
Logically drop the unused columns:-
ALTER TABLE table_name SET UNUSED (column_name);
ALTER TABLE table_name SET UNUSED (column_name1, column_name2);
Physically drop the unused columns:-
ALTER TABLE table_name DROP UNUSED COLUMNS;
ALTER TABLE table_name DROP COLUMN column_name;
ALTER TABLE table_name DROP (column_name1, column_name2);
I think its helpful to you.
Regards,
Narendra G.

** Is it possible to give select command from multiple tables in JDBC

SQL describe command not running in JSP

Hello All,
i hope u all will be enjoying ur lives :)
i have a problem that when i run the SQL describe command it gives me the error that Invalid SQL Statement...
the command syntax is
desc tablename; OR describe tablename;
and i am doing it like that
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("describe CF");
where CF is the name of table..
actually what i want to do is get the columns and its datatypes dynamically.. means that i want i get all the tables first from database then whichever table i select i can display its records and also add delete and modify the records...
if anyone have already code of this ..please email me at
[email protected]
i will be very very thank ful for that..
otherwise tell me the solution of the above problem :(
thanx in advance
RANA

You can get all the information about the table using the meta data. Run a dummy query (I don't think it even needs to return any results), and then grab the meta data
from the result set:
ResultSet rs = null;
ResultSetMetaData rsmd;
int numcolumns = 0;
Vector field = new Vector();
rs = statement.executeQuery( "select * from mytable where field='nevermatchme'");
rsmd = rs.getMetaData();
numcolumns = rsmd.getColumnCount();
for ( int i = 1 ; i <= numcolumns ; i++ ) {
field.add( rsmd.getColumnName(i) );
You now have a Vector with one element per database field, each containing a String of that fields name. I believe it is also possible to get field
type, etc also the MetaData.

SQL COPY command Weird outcome!!

Hi,
On Friday I have refreshed two tables from one database to another using SQL COPY command.But today I found something weird that two tables have data which were before refresh.
the command I hadused:
copy from test/xxxx@db3to test/yyyy@db1 insert master_table using select * from master_table;What could be the reason.??

COPY Command is used to COPY database table from one Schema to another Schema.

Need to execute SQL PLUS commands from C# code

Hello all,
This is my first question here and hopefully I will get my solution :)
Right now we are doing 3 tasks manually
1) Clearing everything from a DB.
We use sql plus and execute this :
RAMNIVAS_CI/RAMNIVAS_CI@orclwex3
set pages 0
set lines 80
spool c:\delete_objects_CI
select 'drop '||object_type||' '||object_name||';'
from user_objects;
spool off
start c:\delete_objects_CI.lst
purge recyclebin;
set pages 100
select count(*) from user_objects;
RAMNIVAS_CI/RAMNIVAS_CI@orclwex3 are the username and pwd which gets input when we paste entire thing in sql plus
2) Then we restore that DB again using sql plus to do it using the command:
imp file=CL.DMP log=CL.log buffer=1000000 fromuser=RAMNIVAS_CL touser=RAMNIVAS_CL statistics=none grants=n commit=y
3)Execute sql scripts on it using sql developer. (This is not hard I guess coz I know we can use oracle client)
4) Take backup using this command:
exp RAMNIVAS_CI/RAMNIVAS_CI@ORCLWEX3 file=CI.dmp log=CI.log direct=y compress=y buffer=1000000 grants=n statistics=none
Is there anything I cna do to execute SQL PLUS commands using c#?

Hi,
You can execute OS commands via the SHELL function provided in .NET. See the MSDN for more info.
Some of the things you can do directly from .NET via ODP and PLSQL, some not.
1) Dropping the user objects can be done via a plsql procedure where you open a cursor for "select 'drop '||object_type||' '||object_name||';' ..." and then use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE to execute the resulting commands. You can invoke the procedure via ODP.
2) IMP is an exe, not a sqlplus command, so you're not actually using sqlplus there. You can still use the SHELL command though to invoke that.
3) Executing SQL Scripts via ODP.NET is not something you can do very easily. If you search the threads here you should be able to find some solutions others have come up with to parse the file and execute the statements one by one, but there's nothing built in to ODP to execute a script file.
You may want to just shell out to sqlplus user/pwd@db @scriptfile.sql but you may have issues trying to track down errors if any occurred, as I'm not sure where they go in that case.
4) just as with IMP, EXP is an exe, so you could shell out to that.
Corrections/comments welcome.

Running a SQL*Plus command from Java

I have a requirement to run SQL* Plus commands from Java. The results as they would appear in SQL*Plus window or spool file should be captured and stored in a table.
For example,
SQL> select * from dual;
D
X
1 row selected;
SQL>
All the lines above should be stored for later use.
Could any one give pointers?
Thanks,
Ravi


Hi,



public class RuntimeExecApp {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
Runtime r = Runtime.getRuntime();
r.exec("C:\\Oracle\\sqlplus.exe");
}

Oracle SQL Select query takes long time than expected.

Hi,
I am facing a problem in SQL select query statement. There is a long time taken in select query from the Database.
The query is as follows.
select /*+rule */ f1.id,f1.fdn,p1.attr_name,p1.attr_value from fdnmappingtable f1,parametertable p1 where p1.id = f1.id and ((f1.object_type ='ne_sub_type.780' )) and ( (f1.id in(select id from fdnmappingtable where fdn like '0=#1#/14=#S0058-3#/17=#S0058-3#/18=#1#/780=#5#%')))order by f1.id asc
This query is taking more than 4 seconds to get the results in a system where the DB is running for more than 1 month.
The same query is taking very few milliseconds (50-100ms) in a system where the DB is freshly installed and the data in the tables are same in both the systems.
Kindly advice what is going wrong??
