An sql query is not working

Hello everybody,
I want to enter a word in a table if that word does not already exist in the table.
I wrote a query like this.
String word="Football";
sql="INSERT INTO m_word_list (word_text , category_id , used_counter, date_of_addition, added_by, is_status ) VALUES ('"+word+"', 2, 0, '"+todaysDate+"', '1', '1')WHERE '"+word+"' NOT IN
(SELECT * FROM `m_word_list` WHERE word_text = '"+word+"');
Where am I wrong in the query?
Please help.

1.) Always post the exception, error message and whatever detail you've got when something "doesn't" work.
2.) Always use PreparedStatements to execute parameterized queries/updates instead of dynamically building the String
3.) INSERT INTO doesn't have a where clause.
Why don't you simply make the wort_text column unique and simply try to insert. If there's already such a word then you'll get a message which tells you.

  • Where rownum=2 in my sql query is not working . Why ??

    Hello,
    i am using Oracle 11g .Referring scott schema's emp table.
    I just issued this sql query with the intention to get second highest salary of a employee. But i am unable to understand why my query fails ?
    select rownum,empno,ename,sal from (select empno,ename,sal from emp order by sal desc) where rownum=2;This query is returning no rows . Can you tell why this query is returning no rows ?

    888953 wrote:
    Because you can use ROWNUM only to limit the number of returned records, not to return a specific record.
    So only this has sense (n any number):
    ROWNUM <= n
    or
    ROWNUM = 1 (which is equal to ROWNUM <= 1)
    Anything else will not return a row.As i said ,
    select * from (select rownum rn,empno,ename,sal from (select empno,ename,sal from emp order by sal desc)) where rn=2;this query is working fine.So rownm can be used to return a specific record . Please rectify me if i am wrong .

  • SQL Query Report Not working

    Hi,
    I have a region as the type
    "SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query)".
    The query works fine for reports if I query two columns. Select 1, 2 from table.
    For some reason if the returning query has more than three columns (select 1, 2, 3 from table), I get an error:
    "report error:
    ORA-01403: no data found"
    Any help would be great. Thanks.

    Hi,
    I've been trying all sorts of things on a test report and the only way that I get extra columns is by including derived columns in the report. Otherwise, even with custom headings, adding or removing columns in the report's PL/SQL adjusts the columns as I would expect.
    Are your extra columns derived or can your report return a varying number of columns?

    Chris,
    There are several areas in your code which needed changes. 
    1. On the field name for your temp table you had spaces.
    2. The SAP table name ODLN, OPCH, PCH1 had to be fully referenced like
    [dbo].[ODLN]
    3. You really need not have ## in front of your temp table, it could just be #
    The select at the end is actually what causes the most problem as for some reason from within SAP it does not produce the result.  I would suggest you put the whole code into a Stored Procedure and call the SP from SAP.  Corrected SQL below.  If you remove the Select line at the end the query would work with in SAP, but keep it give give you an error. SP is the best option for this.

  • Excel 2010 MS Query is not working

    Hi, I am in the process of upgrading all my Excel 2003 spreadsheets to Excel 2010.  I am running into problem with the MS Query.  Spreadsheets have MS Query linking to MS database.  However, when I open some of the spreadsheets, the MS Query
    is not working ie. the blue circle keeps turning and then not responding.  It is very weird that this MS Query is working fine with some spreadsheets but not couple and they are all linking to the same database except a small different in criteria.  I
    tried to re-create the Query in the spreadsheet in Excel 2010 by going to Data>From Other Sources>From Microsoft Query and select the database.  Once I set up the criteria and click Return data, the Query gets stuck.
    Please help! Any comments/suggestions will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    There are many possible causes that can crash MSQuery in Excel 2010.
    First, please make sure we have installed the latest Office 2010 and Windows patches.
    Second, Please read the Blog, it explains one typical crash scenario.
    =====
    AppName: msqry32.exe AppVer: 14.0.4750.1000 ModName: msvcr90.dll
    There are several possible resolution you can try to resolve the above crash:
    1. When you launch MS Query, just disable the option "Validate queries before saving or returning data", this is the fifth box in the options menu.
    The only problem is that if you have made any mistake in your query, you'll only be noticed when receiving the data in excel.
    2. Repair all the keys into registry at the following place:
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC]
    For example:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC]
    "TraceFile"="C:\\DOCUME~1\\...USERNAME...\\IMPOST~1\\Temp\\SQL.LOG"
    "TraceDll"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\odbctrac.dll"
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/asiasupp/archive/2011/11/07/msquery-randomly-crashed.aspx
    =====
    Third, start the Excel 2010 with
    safe mode, it helps us confirm if some add-ins cause this issue.
    Hope it's helpful.

    using sqlmonitor i have traced the forms 6i (.fmx),in this case toad additional

    whatever i am doing in forms runtime the sqlmonitor provide the sql query.
    for examble i am opening the lov with the help of F9.Now the sqlmonitor trace
    the sql query for that lov item.so its very helpful to see the query without

    running from the explorer.is there any other forms trace method is available
    pls kindly guide to me.

    Are you running the query with the constant date looking like strings ('20-AUG-2004' in your post, for example) as-is from the VB program?
    If not, are you binding the parameters correctly?

    "SQL loader is not working" is rather like "my car won't start" http://tkyte.blogspot.com/2005/06/how-to-ask-questions.html
    The 9i Oracle Client install includes sqlldr. The 10g Oracle Client install does NOT include sqlldr. You'd have to do a "Custom" Install and specifically select "Oracle Database Utilities" to install.

  • Select query is not working in BDC Program

    Hi,
    I am working in BDC for update valuation class for T-code mm01.Actually In this BDC i am using two recoding based on material type.
    i am using two internal table : I_DATA and ITAB
    Use I_DATA to hold excle data in which material No, plant , valuation type , valuation No. and ITAB for material No, material type Only.
    So, i am fetching material Type ( MARA-MTART ) through select query. But Select query is not working. and also i did check MARA table according that  Material Number then  material no. exit in Mara Table.
    Note : at run time  I_DATA have 1 row but ITAB have 0 row ....
    DATA: BEGIN OF I_DATA OCCURS 0,
    MATNR TYPE MARA-MATNR,
    WERKS TYPE MARC-WERKS,
    BWTAR TYPE RMMG1-BWTAR,
    VERPR TYPE BMMH1-VERPR,
    BKLAS TYPE MBEW-BKLAS,
    STATUS TYPE C,
    END OF I_DATA.
    DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
    MATNR LIKE MARA-MATNR,
    MTART LIKE MARA-MTART,
    END OF ITAB.
    Loop at I_DATA.
    select matnr mtart from mara into table itab where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    Guide me..........

    If you use your
    Loop at I_DATA.
      select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
        where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    At end of loop, itab will only contain the result of the last select, so use a
    Loop at I_DATA.
      select matnr mtart from mara APPENDING table itab
        where matnr = I_DATA-matnr.
    endloop.
    better
    if I_DATA[] is not initial.
      select matnr mtart from mara into table itab
        FOR ALL ENTRIES IN i_data where matnr = i_data-matnr.
    endif.
    Some Remarks
    - If actually required (where does I_DATA come from, is it an external format, you need the internal value to use in SELECT statement), check via SE11 the correct [conversion exit|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/35/26b217afab52b9e10000009b38f974/content.htm] associated with domain MATNR (Is it truly ALPHA, and not something like MATN1, so [CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=conversion_exit_matn1_input])
    - You could try to use BAPI like [BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=bapi_material_savedata] and not BDC
