Append in Oracle SQL/DBMS/Procedure

Hi, I am running a direct SQL statement against a field. When the user enters values into a field, I want the values to be passed into the Oracle 9 database. When the user adds more info into the same field, I want the new info appended to the previous entry.
So if user enters "Jim" into field A, then the user wants to enter "Jeffrey" -- the SQL statement should append Jim to Jeffrey and store both values.
Is there an SQL or DBMS statement/procedure which allows me to do this?

if you are using front end tools such as oracle forms developer. the when-validate-item trigger for the base item is suitable for this scenario. you have to explicitly put the commit keyword on the when-validate-item.

  • Calling ORACLE/SQL stored procedure...

    Hello,
    Is it possible to invoke non-parametrized Stored Procedures (a procedure that, neither having IN parameter nor OUT parameter) from BizTalk.?
    Any suggestion/solution?
    Thanks,
    Prajakt.
    Praj Dixit

    Praj,
    Yes possible.
    Create a .NET helper which will call the stored procedure and handle the return value/recordset from sp and in your BizTalk artifacts call this .NET helper/wrapper to SQL stored procedure.

  • Oracle SQL Developer  error - "The file-based source procedure Name is not present in the database."

    I recently started working on the Oracle SQL developer. I have 'select' privileges on the QA schema and when tried to execute proc in QA. It is giving the error as 'The file-based source <procedure Name>  is not present in the database.  Was it compiled?'
    instead 'you do not have sufficient privileges to execute this procedure'. Did research on internet but with no luck.What configuration changes needed to be done to make it work.Guide me.

    Sounds like you do not have the correct privileges.  What should have been granted to you by the QA user, or some other user with appropriate privileges, is...
    grant EXECUTE on "QA"."<PROCEDURE_OF_INTEREST>" to "<YOUR_USERID>" ;
    Note that a grant of execute on a procedure has nothing to do with grants of select on some or all of QA's tables and views.
    So, as Vadim suggests, from your connection node in SQL Developer's Connections view, if you expand the Other Users node, then expand QA and look in the Procedures node, do you see the procedure of interest?  If not, you cannot expect to be able to execute it from your userid's connection. And even if you do see it, you may have some other privilege that permits viewing but not executing, like...
    The role SELECT_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege SELECT ANY DICTIONARY
    And even if you do not see it there, then having certain other privileges granted to you could permit executing it in general, like...
    The role EXECUTE_CATALOG_ROLE
    The system privilege EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
    Also, note that the 3.0 release is a bit dated nowadays. Upgrading to 4.0.3 production or even the 4.1 EA2 (early adopter) release will, in general, give you a better experience.
    Best wishes,

  • Oracle.sql.STRUCT and returns from procedures

    I need to know how to retrieve information out of a stored procedure. I have a stored procedure that has a IN/OUT parameter that is used to return an array of an oracle TYPE that is set up in the database (it consists of two numbers and a varchar2. So I am returning an array of these types). I need to call this stored procedure from JDBC and retrieve the data out of it. I can setup the outParameter of the statement and also get the Object out of the statement once the procedure is called. But what is returned to me? An array of oracle.sql.STRUCT objects? A single oracle.sql.STRUCT object? A multi-dimensional array of java objects? Or something else?
    Thanks
    null

    as far as I know, the STRUCT is the returned geometry. so you can declare a SDO_GEOMETRY variable and assing the STRUCT directly to this variable.
    For example you have a variable 'geo_variable' and assign it the result of a function like this:
    geo_variable := SDO_GEOM.SDO_DIFFERENCE(geom1, geom2, tol );
    what you see written like this "oracle.sql.STRUCT@6c08b2.." I believe is the stuct @ the memory address 6c08b2..

  • Issue with Oracle.sql.NUMBER in Java Stored Procedure

    When we try to make a call to the Oracle.sql.NUMBER(String) inside a java stored procedure and pass values from '01' to '09', it throws java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 3
    We use Oracle 9.2.0.6 - JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0.
    It works fine for other values. Please find below the code used for simulating the issue outside the application. Thanks.
    create or replace and compile java source named testNumber as
    import oracle.sql.NUMBER;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    public class TestNumber
           public static String convertNumber(String parm) {
                     NUMBER nTest;
                     try {
                             nTest = new NUMBER(parm);
                             return "TRUE";
                     }catch (SQLException sqle) {
                             return "FALSE";
    create or replace function test_number (p_str in varchar2) return varchar2 as
    language Java name 'TestNumber.convertNumber(java.lang.String) return
    java.lang.String';
    select test_number('05') from dual;  - Throws exception ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: 3
    select test_number('5') from dual; - Works fine
    select test_number('010') from dual; - Works fine

    Siva,
    I'm only guessing, but it could be an Oracle bug, in which case I suggest checking with Oracle Support.
    (You do have a support contract, don't you? ;-)
    Did you try compiling and running your java class "TestNumber" outside the database?
    Class "oracle.sql.NUMBER" should be in Oracle's JDBC driver, I believe.
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

  • SQL Server Procedures to Oracle Functions

    Is there an option in the Migration Assistant 1.2.0 that will convert the SQL Server procedures into Oracle Functions (rather than procedures)?
    By default the T/SQL procedures return a integer status code. Our middle-tier requires calls to procedures to return a status code (integer), and I'd like the migration to modify the "procedure" to a "Function returning Integer" rather than Procedure.

    Thomas,
    This is not an option currently. We will look into this for a future release. You could manually make the changes post conversion, prior to generation. As well as adding appropriate RETURN statements, you may want to add additional exception handling so the appropriate error is passed back.

  • PL/SQL and Oracle SQL Developer

    I just downloaded the latest version of Oracle SQL Developer, because I heard that it is free and comes with a debugger.
    So I have it all setup, I am connected to my database, but I wanted to execute a simple example:
    I selected to create a new Procedure and a new tab opened up, I pasted this code and under DBMS Output, I clicked the + to: set serveroutput on
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TEST1 As
    DECLARE
       mytext varchar2(100) := 'Hello world!' ; 
    BEGIN

       dbms_output.put_line(mytext) ;
    END TEST1;yet, I get an error:
    Source does not have a runnable target.
    So, is this made to only work with the database objects ? Tables ? I can't execute a simple Hello World ?
    Please help, thanks!

  • Unable to use the values returned by a PL/SQL stored procedure in a XSQL page

    Hi,
    I've been messing around with XML and XSQL in particular. I was trying to write a xsql page to display a report with account totals...I have the following .xsql which calls a PL/SQL stored procedure :
    <?xml version="1.0"?>
    <xsql:query connection="pfcdm" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
    <xsql:set-session-param name="zasset_total" value="100">
    <xsql:dml connection="pfcdm">
    rraman.sp_vw_id(zasset_total,zinvm_total,zmkt_val);
    </xsql:dml>
    </xsql:set-session-param>
    select 'Asset total is {@zasset_total}' as "ASSET_TOTAL" from dual
    </xsql:query>
    My procedure sp_vw_id returns the values that it should. But, I am not sure how to declare variables within a page, and to output the return values. There is very scanty documentation on the usage of <xsql:dml> or <xsql:ref-cursor-function>.
    Any response would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Raja

    Here is the example from the Oracle9i (complete rewrite) of the XSQL Chapter in our Oracle documentation.
    Question
    I using <xsql:dml> to call a stored procedure which has one OUT parameter, but I was not able to see any results. The executed code results in the following statement:
    <xsql-status action="xsql:dml" rows="0"/>
    Answer
    You cannot set parameter values by binding them in the position of OUT variables in this release using <xsql:dml>. Only IN parameters are supported for binding. You can create a wrapper procedure that constructs XML elements using the HTP package and then your XSQL page can invoke the wrapper procedure using <xsql:include-owa> instead.
    For an example, suppose you had the following procedure:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE addmult(arg1 NUMBER,
    arg2 NUMBER,
    sumval OUT NUMBER,
    prodval OUT NUMBER) IS
    BEGIN
    sumval := arg1 + arg2;
    prodval := arg1 * arg2;
    END;You could write the following procedure to "wrap" it, taking all of the IN arguments that the procedure above expects, and then "encoding" the OUT values as a little XML datagram that you print to the OWA page buffer:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE addmultwrapper(arg1 NUMBER, arg2 NUMBER) IS
    sumval NUMBER;
    prodval NUMBER;
    xml VARCHAR2(2000);
    BEGIN
    -- Call the procedure with OUT values
    addmult(arg1,arg2,sumval,prodval);
    -- Then produce XML that encodes the OUT values
    xml := '<addmult>'&#0124; &#0124;
    '<sum>'&#0124; &#0124;sumval&#0124; &#0124;'</sum>'&#0124; &#0124;
    '<product>'&#0124; &#0124;prodval&#0124; &#0124;'</product>'&#0124; &#0124;
    '</addmult>';
    -- Print the XML result to the OWA page buffer for return
    HTP.P(xml);
    END;This way, you can build an XSQL page like this that calls the wrapper procedure:
    <page connection="demo" xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
    <xsql:include-owa bind-params="arg1 arg2">
    BEGIN addmultwrapper(?,?); END;
    </xsql:include-owa>
    </page>This allows a request like:
    http://yourserver.com/addmult.xsql?arg1=30&arg2=45
    to return an XML datagram that reflects the OUT values like this:
    <page> <addmult><sum>75</sum><product>1350</product></addmult>
    </page>
