BLOBs from different tables on one report

Hi,
I think the declarative BLOB support enhancement in 3.1 is really great. I am running into a problem with a report that joins two tables that both have BLOB columns. I have a Letters table and a Response table. The Response table has a FK linkage to the Letters table with the Letters table being the referenced table. I have a report that joins the Letters & Response tables and provides download links for the BLOBs in both tables. However on the report, only one of the link works at a given point in time. Both the links work fine in isolation (if the other link is commented out in the query).
I am using the APEX_UTIL.GET_BLOB_FILE_SRC function to download the files. Has anyone tried using this function to download files from two different tables in a single report?
TIA,
Ramesh

Ramesh,
Is this application on apex.oracle.com by any chance? I just went to test there and am having all sorts of trouble with declarative display of BLOBs in a report but on our dev box, two works fine (except that the link for both is the default rather than what I selected).

How to display multiple data from different table in one table? please help

Hi
I got sun java studio creator 2(the separate installation not the one in the net beans)....
My question is about displaying data that have been taken from the database.... I know how to display data in a table(just click on the table "bind data" )... but my question is that:
when i want to use a sql statement that taken the data from different table...
how can i display that data in the table(that will be shown in the web) ??? when i click bind data on the table i can only select one table i can't select more than one....
Note:
1) i'm using the rowset for displaying the data in the table, since the sql statement is depending on a condition(i.e. select a from b where c= ? )...
2) i mean by different table is that( i.e. select a from table1,table2 )..
thanks in advance...

I want display the details of emp table.. for that I am using this SQL statement.
select * from emp where mgr=nvl(:mgr,mgr);
when I give the input as 7698 it is displaying the corresponding records... and also when I won't give any input then it is displaying all the records except the mgr with null values.
1)I want to display all the records when I won't give any input including nulls
2)I want to display all the records who's mgr is null
Is there any way to incorporate to include all these in a single query..It's a little unclear what you're asking.
The following query always includes rows where mgr is NULL, and when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, it displays all rows:
SELECT *
FROM     emp
WHERE     LNNVL (mgr != :mgr)
;That is, when :mgr = 7698, it displays 6 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows (assuming you're using the Oracle-supplied scott.emp table).
The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variable :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays all rows:
SELECT     *
FROM     emp
WHERE     :mgr     = mgr
OR      :mgr      IS NULL
;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL it displays 14 rows.
The following query includes rows where mgr is NULL only when the bind variab;e :mgr is NULL, in which case it displays only the rows where mgr is NULL. That is, it treats NULL as a value:
SELECT     *
FROM     emp
WHERE     DECODE ( mgr
            , :mgr, 'OK'
            )     = 'OK'
;When :mgr = 7698, this displays 5 rows, and when :mgr is NULL, it displays 1 row.

Data from different systems in one report in Visual Composer

Hi,
I want to create a dashboard report in visual composer where in I have a set of 10 tables data to be displayed in one page out of 10 queries I am getting the data for 5 of the reports from Bi system and for other reports we get it from CRM system .Can I place data coming from 2 different reports in one view.If so how is that possible.
What are the advantages we have in Visual composer apart from WAD .
Regards,

Hi,
Two different reports can be placed in one iview, but as far as i know it is not possible to combine two reports data into single table.

Report using Data from different tables

Hello,
I am trying to convert a Cobol batch program to Oracle 6i tabular report.
The data is fetched from many different tables and there are lots of processing(i.e, based on the value of a column from one table need additional processing from different tables) required to generate the desired columns in the final report.
I would like to know what is the best strategy to follow in Oracle Reports 6i. I heard that CREATE GLOBAL TEMPORARY TABLE is an option. ( or REF CURSOR ?) I do not know much about its usage. Can somebody guide me about this or any other better way to achieve the result.
Thank you in advance
Priya

Hello,
There are many, many options available to you, each of which has advantages and disadvantages. This is why it is difficult to answer "what is best?" without alot more details about your specific circumstances.
In general, you're going to be writing PL/SQL to do any conditional logic that cannot be expressed as pure SQL. It can executed in the database, or it can executed within Reports itself. And most reports developers do some of both.
As a general rule, you want to send only the data you need from the database to the report. This means you want to do as much filtering and aggregating of the data as is readily possible within the database. If this cannot be expressed as plain SQL queries, then you'll want to create a stored procedures to help do this work.
Generally, the PL/SQL you create for executing within the report should be focused on control of the formatting, such as controlling whether a field is visible, or controlling display attributes for conditional formatting.
But these are not hard and fast rules. In some cases, it is difficult to get all the stored procedures you might like installed into the database. Perhaps the dba is reluctant to let you install that many stored procedures. Perhaps there are restrictions when and how often updates can be made to stored procedures in a production database, which makes it difficult to incrementally adjust your reports based on user feedback. Or perhaps there are restrictions for how long queries are allowed to run.
So, Reports offers lots of options and features to let you do data manipulation operations from within the report data model.
In any case, Oracle does offer temporary table capabilities. You can populate a temp table by running stored procedures that do queries, calculations and aggregations. And you can define and initiate a dynamic query statement within the database and pass a handle to this query off to the report to execute (ref cursor).
From the reports side, you can have as many queries as you want in the data model, arranged in any hierarchy via links. You can parameterize and change the queries dynamically using bind variables and lexicals. And you can add calculations, aggregations, and filters.
Again, most people do data manipulation both in the database and in Reports, using the database for what it excels at, and Reports for what it excels at.
Hope this helps.

Downloading BLOB from a table.

Hello,
First I want to say thatnks for such a great tool like HTMLDB.
Question is:
How do I download BLOB from a table. What I am trying to do is. I am uploading files to a default HTMLDB location (wwv_flow_file_objects$) and moving the records to different table (delete file from wwv_file_objects$). Then I would like to be able to download that blobs from a DB by following some link. And I need it to be secure, user have to authenticate to do it. I got to the point where I created process (before header) to download the file. But I am having hard time passing some variables to that process in URL. Can some one advice me on the best practice of doing it. And also if it is a right thing to use before header process to put my own header and start uploading blob in html db. The main reason I do not whant to use DAD for that is simple security issue and ability of storing of the BLOBs only in one table. I prefer to upload it to a temporary location and then move it to other table(s). Then I need to be able to retriev the files back from those tables without moving them around.
Any help is greatly appriciated

i think i see what you're asking, but i'll step through the pieces just to make sure i cover your issue:
it sounds as if you have a procedure that successfully calls wpg_docload.download_file to get your blob out of your images table. for this explanation, lets just say your images table has the same table structure as wwv_flow_files created with something like...
create table myfiles as select * from wwv_flow_files where rownum < 3;
....and let's say your download proc that passed the blob from your myfiles table to wpg_docload.download_file looked something like...
create or replace procedure getmyfile(
p_id in varchar2,
p_mime_type in varchar2 default null)
as
l_lob blob;
l_mimetype varchar2(48);
l_mime_charset varchar2(255);
l_filename varchar2(400);
begin
select mime_type, blob_content, filename, file_charset
into l_mimetype, l_lob, l_filename, l_mime_charset
from myfiles
where id = p_id;
if l_mime_charset is not null then
owa_util.mime_header( l_mimetype, FALSE, l_mime_charset );
else
owa_util.mime_header( l_mimetype, FALSE );
end if;
htp.p('Content-length: ' || dbms_lob.getlength( l_lob ));
htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' ||
wwv_flow_utilities.escape_url( p_url => l_filename, p_url_charset => 'utf-8') || '"');
owa_util.http_header_close;
wpg_docload.download_file( l_lob );
end;
...then it sounds as if this is where you start running into issues. to be able to call this procedure from the url, you'd have to grant execute on your getmyfile proc to the db user that your modplsql DAD uses to access your db. once that user was given access to run getmyfile, you could access your files in myfiles by calling a URL like...
http://myserver.com/pls/mydad/myschema.getmyfile?p_id=1005529367869246
...where p_id is the unique id associated with your blob in getmyfiles (you could, of course, use whatever method you want to uniquely identify that file and adjust your select-into statement w/in your getmyfile procedure). so that's all fine and dandy, but it sounds as if you want users to have to authenticate into your html db application before they can access a blob in your images table. it also sounds as if you're on the right track to do so by putting your procedure call in a before_header html db process. you could quite easily call your getmyfile procedure in such an html db pl/sql before_header process with something like...
begin
getmyfile (p_id => 1008411584930314);
end;
...which would cause your page to just show the blob associated with the id you passed to getmyfile. because you're now accessing your blob table through html db parsing as your application schema owner, you'd no longer need to grant execute on getmyfile to your modplsql DAD's db user. that eliminates most of the security hole to which you were referring. now that you're calling getmyfile from w/in an html db process, you can take advantage of all the other html db perks such as applying conditions and an authorization scheme to the html db process to really lock things down. finally, you asked about firing your process before_header versus other firing points. before_header is a good way to go, but if you really wanted to execute other procedural logic on your page before showing the blob (and you didn't want to implement that code as before_header processes that fire sequentially before your getmyfile call),you could just throw an htp.init in right before your getmyfile call to clear out your http buffer like so...
begin
htp.init;
getmyfile (p_id => 1008411584930314);
end;
...hope this helps,

How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?

How to do a SELECT from different tables into an internal table?
I want to select data from MARA, MARC and ZPERSON and populate my ITAB_FINAL
REPORT zinternal_table.
TABLES:
mara,
marc,
zperson.
TYPES:
BEGIN OF str_table1,
v_name LIKE zperson-zname,
v_matnr LIKE marc-matnr,
v_emarc LIKE marc-emarc,
v_werks_d LIKE marc-werks_d,
v_dstat LIKE marc-dstat,
END OF str_table,
i_table1 TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table1.
DATA:
BEGIN OF str_table2,
v_mandt LIKE mara-mandt,
v_ernam LIKE mara-ernam,
v_laeda LIKE mara-laeda,
END OF str_table2,
itab_final LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF str_table2.

first find the link between mara , marc and zperson , if u have link to 3 tables then u can jus write a join and populate the table u want ( thats final table with all the fields).
u defenitely have alink between mara and marc so join them and retrieve all data into one internal table.
then for all the entries in that internal table retrieve data from zperson into another internal table.
then loop at one internal table
read another internal table where key equals in both the tables.
finally assign fileds if sy-subrc = 0.
gs_finaltable-matnr = gs_table-matnr
etc...
and finally append gs_finaltable to gt_finaltable.
there u go ur final table has all the data u want.

List values from different prompts into one.

Hi All,
We have OBIEE 11g and building Analysis out of Essbase cube. Here is our Requirement we need to build a Dashboard prompt which shows values from different tables.
All these tables belong to one dimension and this has about 10 tables in it. So the prompt which we build should pick specific values from each table.
I know we can build prompt for every table which we will end up with 10 prompts which doesn't look good so we need to show all the values of these ten prompts in single drop down (One Prompt)which we can use for refreshing the dashbaord.
Say we have table names as Gen1.Organisation, Gen2.Organisation,.........Gen10.Organisation
Thanks,
Shashank

are there any dependancies on the selections e.g if you pick Gen1.Organisation1 does this mean that you can only pick Gen2.OrgA or Org B?
if there are no dependancies and you want all possible combinations across ten tables then you are looking at one huge drop down list !!

How to get only column names from different tables as single table columns

Hi All,
I have one requirement in which we want only column names from different tables.
for example :
I have three tables T1 ,T2, T3 having
col1 clo2 clo3 --> T1 ,
col3 col5 ,clo6 --> T2 ,
Clo6 col8 col9 --> T3
columns i want to get only all Column names from all table as single Resultset not any data from that how can i get that empty resultset
because this empty result i want to bind in datagridview(front end) as Empty resultset
Please tell me anyways to do this
Niraj Sevalkar

If I understand you want an empty result set, just with metadata. SET FMTONLY do the trick:
SET FMTONLY ON
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
SET FMTONLY OFF
Another alternative is to include an imposible contition
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3, ....., Coln
FROM
T1 CROSS JOIN T2 CROSS JOIN T3
WHERE 1 = 0
If you are using a SqlDataAdapter in your client application. You can use the FillSchema method. the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want. Under the covers FillSchema will call SET FMTONLY ON.
If you are using SqlCommand.ExecuteReader you can pass SchemaOnly to CommandBehavior argument. SET FMTONLY ON is called under the covers. Again the select command may be any select statement that returns the columns you want.

It's a problem with me not being able to run the code to test it. Basically the problem is that the subquery is nested too deeply to be able to see the QTMT_TICKETS table. It is not 'missing' as ApexBine suggests but it is unavailable. The most deeply nested subqueries execute first, and that one is executing before the QTMT_TICKETS table is available to it. Off the top of my head, the easiest thing then would be to create a function to get the GATE_COMM value (I'm guessing at the data types):
FUNCTION gate_comm (p_ticket   NUMBER)
RETURN VARCHAR2
AS
CURSOR c_gc IS
    SELECT g.GATE_COMM
    FROM   QTMT_GATE_COMM g
    WHERE g.TICKET_ID = p_ticket
    ORDER BY g.GATE_COMM_ID DESC;
BEGIN
FOR v_Lp IN c_gc LOOP
    RETURN v_Lp.gate_comm;
END LOOP;
END;Then you can replace the failing subquery in the SQL with gate_comm(t.TICKET_ID)

Retriving of data from different tables

retriving of data from different tables depening of the primary key this key field is there in all tables if it is there in one v table it should continue to other tables otherwise it should get exit from that it should display information message or otherwise success message if it is there in all tables .

Im writing the concept, just check it.
SELECT * from kna1 into lt_kna1.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
selest * from lfa1 into lt_lfa1
for all entries in lt_kna1.

Fetch data from different tables print them is assigned places

Hi Friends,
I have designed one SMART-Form (Receipt).
I need to fetch data from different tables and the data must be print in assigned places. Please help me how to achieve this requirement. Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Manju.
Edited by: Alvaro Tejada Galindo on Feb 12, 2008 10:20 AM

U're right.
When it creates a smartform it needs to decide when the main data have to be extracted:
- or in driver program
- or in smartforms
The difference can be in the performance, because the program can select the data only once, the smartforms needs to extract them everytime it's called.
I prefer to use a complex structure for the smartform interface as so all data I need are in only one structure, the problem is the complex structure is harder to be managed.

Hi Ibai,
Thanks for your feed back. I give you an example.
Let say now i wanna print employee list, so i will go
1. Main Menu -> Reports -> HR -> Employee List
2. Choose the Selection Criteria -> OK
3. Matrix will display (Employee List)
4. I can print the report click on print button
5. Printing report
My target
1. Main Menu -> Eric_SubMenu -> Employee List
2. Matrix will display (Employee List)
3. Print button
4. Print report
My problem
Now I would like to use my own report format. My own report format means I wanna add on my logo or do some customization within the employee report. So how I am going to do? I only able to display the employee list in matrix. How do I create a new report format and display it.
Thanks.

I need to copy data from a table in one database (db1) to another table in

Hi
I need to copy data from a table in one database (db1) to another table in another database (db2).
I am not sure if the table exists in db2,,,if it doesnot it needs to be created as well data also needs to be inserted...
How am I supposed to this using sql statements..?
I shall be happy if it is explained SQL also...
Thanking in advance

How many rows does the table contains? There are manyway you can achieve this.
1. export and import.
2. create a dblink between two databases and use create table as select, if structure doesnot exists in other database, if structure exists, use, insert into table select command.
example:
create a dblink in db2 database for db1 database.
create table table1 as select * from table1@db1 -- when there is no structure present
-- you need to add constraints manually, if any exists.
insert into table1 select * from table1@db1 -- when there is structure present.
If the table contains large volume of data, I would suggest you to use export and import.

Retrieving Data from different Tables with same tuple name

Hi,
I am made the following query from different tables. A tuple "name" is appearing in some tables. So when I run the qiery in a Java class, it delivers the same result of c.name, bpl.name and p.name. The result of c.name is correct, but the other 2 names are overwritten. It works perfect in a postgreSql query tool. How can I correct it, plz?
SELECT c.ad_client_id, c.name, o.c_order_id, o.ref_order_id, bp.name, bpl.name, o.dateordered, o.datepromised, od.c_orderline_id,p.m_product_id,p.name, cur.iso_code, od.qtyordered

Hi,
create alias, if u have similar field names as below. Use the alias name (rs.getString("cname") and rs.getString("bpname") and so on ) to retrive data.

and when after EXECUTE_QUERY (in trigger POST_QUERY) we issue
the SELECT for filling the TEXT ITEM from different table, how
we can prevent FROM_STATUS and RECORD_STATUS to get the
value "CHANGED" (because othervise COMMIT is updating all the
