Concatenate Multiple Values

Hi, I have an XML that looks something like this:
<container_numbers>
<container_number>1</container_number>
<container_number>2</container_number>
<container_number>3</container_number>
<container_number>4</container_number>
</container_numbers>
and I want to concatenate all the fields into one field in the target xml.
Normally I would use 'for-each' to get multiple values, but since I am mapping to a single value, I am a bit stuck? :-|
Any suggestions?

Hi, I found the solution!
You can use the 'create-delimeted-string' function.. :-)

Concatenate multiple row values into single column value

Hello,
Can anyone please refresh my memory on how to concatenate multiple row values into a single column value.
In the following query, I will get multiple denial reasons per application and I would rather return all denial reasons on one line.
SELECT a.application_id, a.membership_number,
r.reason_text AS denial_reason,
a.appl_receipt_date AS application_receipt_date,
a.plan_request_1 AS application_plan_code,
a.adjudication_date AS application_denial_date
FROM application a, PLAN p, application_reason ar, reason r
WHERE a.plan_request_1 = p.plan_cd
AND a.application_id = ar.application_id
AND ar.reason_id = r.reason_id
AND a.adjudication_cd = 'D'
AND a.appl_receipt_date BETWEEN '01-jan-2006' AND '31-dec-2006'
AND p.plan_type_id = 12 and a.application_id = :appId
ORDER BY application_id

Snmp for oids with multiple values

Hi,
So if we have array of OIDs defined in the mib file (eg, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.1, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.2, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.3 and so on each having different values). does anyone know how can we capture this using SNMP fetchlet?
or
do we need to specify each oid separately?
Thanks

Maybe I misunderstood lushhay here. I thought lushhay wanted to associate a key with multiple values. So one way is to have the value of the Hashtable key to be an ArrayList.
Hashtable table = new HashTable();
String key1 = "myKey";
String key2 = "myKey2";
Date value1 = (some date value);
Date value2 = (another date value);
Date value3 = (another date value);
ArrayList valueList = new ArrayList();
valueList.add(value1);
valueList.add(value2);
valueList.add(value3);
table.put(key1,valueList);
This would associate "myKey1" with 3 date values stored in an ArrayList.
There is a downside to using the string concatenation method. You assume that the content of each values will never contain a delimiter. You also assume that the values are strings. But if the values are byte[], the string concatenation will not work. If the values are Dates, it can still work, but you would have to convert it from Date to String then concatenate, then get the String value through StringTokenizer and then convert back to Date.
But anyways, if the values are Strings (and won't contain the delimiter character), then the concatenation method would suffice.

Storing and retrieving multiple values into one cookie.

Hi Everyone,
I am wondering if anybody knows of any good tutorials involving storing multiple values into one cookie. Any URLs will be greatly apprecated. Thanks heaps.

These are normally delimted in HTTP by a semicolon. You can concatenate the string yourself and on the reverse trip use StringTokenizer to get the values back out.

Concatenate multiple columns into one string

Hello,
I am using Oracle 11.2, how can I concatenate the value of multiple columns into one string with one SQL:
create table testTb(classId number(5), classRoom varchar2(32));
insert into testTb value(101, 'room101');
insert into testTb value(101, 'room201');
insert into testTb value(101, 'room301');
insert into testTb value(202, 'room444');
insert into testTb value(202, 'room555');
I would like to generate the result as followings:
Class 101 is in room101, room201, room301
Class 202 is in room444, room555
Thanks,

Hi,
Since you're using Oracle 11.2, you can use the aggregate LISTAGG function:
SELECT       'Class ' || classid
               || ' is in '
             || LISTAGG ( classroom
                     ) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY classroom)
               AS txt
FROM       testtb
GROUP BY classid
;The generic name for concatenating all the strings in a group is String Aggregation . This page shows several ways to do it, suitable for different versions of Oracle.

How to get multiple values from the list

I've a list of an item which I queried it from the database. I also created a button that will takes a selected items from the list when it was clicked. I used javabean to get the data from database.
<%     // clicked on Select District Button
Vector vselectedDistrict = new Vector();
Vector vdistrictID = new Vector();
String tmpSelectDistrict = "";
tmpSelectDistrict = request.getParameter("bSelectDistrict");
if(tmpSelectDistrict != null)
     // get multiple values from the list
     String[] selectedDistrict = request.getParameterValues("usrTDistrict");
     vselectedDistrict.clear();
     vdistrictID.clear();
     if((selectedDistrict != null) && (selectedDistrict.length != 0))
                       for(int i=0;i<selectedDistrict.length;i++)
               vselectedDistrict.addElement(selectedDistrict);
          vdistrictID = dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
          for(int i=0;i<vdistrictID.size();i++)
               out.println("district = " + selectedDistrict[i]);                         out.println("district ID= " + vdistrictID.get(i).toString());
%>
// get vdistrict from the database here......
<select name="usrTDistrict" size="5" multiple>
<%     for(int i = 0; i< vdistrict.size(); i++)
%>
     <option value="<%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%>"><%=vdistrict.get(i).toString()%></option>
<%
%>
</select>
<input type="submit" name="bSelectDistrict" value="Select District">
Lets say the item that i selected from the list is 'Xplace' and I clicked on the Select District button,
what I got is this error message:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: Unable to convert string 'Xplace' to class java.util.Vector for attribute usrTDistrict: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Property Editor not registered with the PropertyEditorManager
So where is going wrong and what the message means?. Any help very much appreciated. Thanks

These are just guesses that might hopefully steer you in directions you haven't looked in yet.
I presume you used triangle brackets (< >) to avoid having the Jive Forum think it was the "italics" tag?
Are you certain this: dbaseInfo.getcurrentDistrictID(nstate,vselectedDistrict);
expects a Vector as its second parameter? And returns a Vector?
I don't believe you've shown how you use the javabean, or its code? Perhaps it should be rewritten to accept an array of strings instead of a Vector?

Printing report that has a parameter with multiple values crashes jvm

I am using BOE XI 4.0 as an unmanaged RAS.
I am able to preview a report that has a string discrete parameter that can have multiple values. If I give it a single value. It previews fine. If I give it an empty string it prints all values which is fine. If I give it two discrete values, it displays just those two.
However, if I try printing the report to a printer:
1 parameter value - prints fine.
2 parameter values - crashes jvm
empty string parameter value - crashes jvm
I would appreciate some direction on how to do this. It works in crystal reports for eclipse.
The test jsp I am using is based off of the samples. The print test jsp is the same as the preview test with the exception of the following code differences.:
preview report.jsp code
// Create a Viewer object
CrystalReportViewer viewer = new CrystalReportViewer();
// Set the report source for the viewer to the ReportClientDocument's report source
viewer.setReportSource(clientDoc.getReportSource());
// Process the http request to view the report
viewer.processHttpRequest(request, response, getServletConfig().getServletContext(), out);
// Dispose of the viewer object
viewer.dispose();
print report jsp code
PrintReportOptions printOptions = new PrintReportOptions();
printOptions.setPrinterName("DELL");
try {
      clientDoc.getPrintOutputController().printReport(printOptions);
} catch (ReportSDKException ex1) {
      System.out.println("Message - " + ex1.getLocalizedMessage());
} catch (Exception ex2) {

Multiple values from database on a single text item

i am trying to do the following
on a single text item in a form
(under form property pallete->records->number of items displayed is 5) run a triger "when-new-block-instance" with the following pl/sql statement
declare
menu_item VARCHAR2(35);
begin
select label into menu_item
from menu_options;
end;
however, once i run the form it gives me
WHEN-NEW-BLOCK-INSTANCE trigger raised unhandeled exception ORA-01422
however, if in the pl/sql statement contains only
begin
execute querry;
end;
then it works fine
The problem i beleive is the fact that the first querry retreives multiple values or recordset instead of A record.
How can i go arond this and allow the form to list all the values in this form. Eventually i will need to add conditional SQL statments and that is why just execute querry will not work.
Also, is there a way to dynamically assign a number to "number of records shown" property?
All help is very much appreciated!

Hi, Marko
I teach Forms, and I usually find a bad idea to use SQL statements directly (in particular when you can "make" Forms to do what you want).
Inside PL/SQL, a SELECT..INTO statement is supposed to select a single row, otherwise an error occurs.
EXECUTE_QUERY works.
If by "conditional SQL statements" you mean restricted (filtered) queries, you don't need to write SQL to do this.
You can set the DEFAULT_WHERE block property to a different value before using EXECUTE_QUERY, like:
SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('your_block', DEFAULT_WHERE, 'where menu_id > 100');
And the answer to your second question is no, you cannot dynamically change the number of records a block is displaying.
You can limit the number of records your block queries from the database table using Maximum Records Fetched block property (available in Forms 6 and above, not sure about Forms 5). However, this will only work as expected if you set Query All Records to Yes.
Hope this helps,
Pedro

Automatically Selecting Values in Multiple Values Dropdown Parameters

Hi,
Is it possible to have parameter values automatically selected in a dropdown in an SSRS report? I'm using SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise edition. Basically what I have in mind is this: The user wants to save his parameter selections in a
table that will be available as a dropdown parameter of a report, call it
ParamUserSelection. ParamUserSelection is the first parameter of the report and other parameters depend on it.
We have two other parameters called ParamCountry and
ParamState. These are dropdown text parameters that allow multiple values to be selected. Populating the list is not a problem as I use a standard cascading parameter technique. What I'm trying to do is the following:
The user selects a value from ParamUserSelection, call it Selection1. Selection1 is stored in a table and has all the values that should be selected in ParamCountry and ParamState. In other words, it should tell these two subsequent parameters,
what values should be selected in their respective dropdowns. For example if the user selects Selection1 from ParamUserSelection, it reads the values in the database table and if it finds US and Canada for countries and CA, NY, ON for states, ParamCountry
should be populated with all the countries available in the database but should have ONLY US and Canada as selected values and ParamState should be populated with all the states in the database but should have ONLY CA, NY and ON as selected values.
If then I click on selection 2 and it has ParamCountry = US, ParamState = TX,OH in its database then again all countries and states should be in the dropdown but only US for ParamCountry and TX,OH for ParamState should be selected.
Is this possible with SSRS? I've tried using the Default Values tab with a dataset that returns all the selected values under Report Parameters Properties but this only works for the first time that I select ParamUserSelection. It appears that
if I change the value of ParamUserSelection again, the default values are not invoked.
If this is possible, please tell me how to do this as I have been struggling for a day with it.

Hi Comedian,
According to your description, you have a report with three parameters (ParamUserSelection, ParamCountry, ParamState). The available value lists of ParamCountry and ParamState are based on the selection of a value for ParamUserSelection. Now you want to
show all countries and states in their parameter dropdown list when selecting a user selection instead of only showing the cascading values. Right?
In Reporting Service, when we want a parameter to show the cascading values, we only need to set the corresponding dataset and field for Default Values in this parameter. In this scenario, if we want to show all countries and states in their dropdown list,
we just need to set another dataset for Available Values in those parameters so they can display all countries and states. We have tested your case in our local environment. Since you have done with the cascading parameters, we just give some part of steps
and screenshots for your reference:
We created two tables (dbo.Selection, dbo.states) based on your information.
Create one more dataset (named dataset2) in your report, put text below into your query:
select distinct Country from states
Create another dataset (named dataset3), put text below into your query:
select distinct State from states
Go to your ParamCountry, in Available Values, select dataset2 and Country for dataset and field.
Go to your ParamState, in Available Values, select dataset3 and State for dataset and field.
Save and preview. It looks like below:

Report Parameters (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

How to use Ajax Get Multiple Values in Tabular form?

Hi All-
I am trying to use AJAX to get multiple values in tabular form by using Denes Kubicek's example in the following link -
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:239:9172467565606::NO:::
Basically, I want to use the drop down list to populate rest of the values on the form.
I have created the example(Ajax Get Multiple Values, application 54522) on Oracle site -
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=4550:1:0:::::
Workspace: iConnect
login: demo
password: demo
I was able to duplicate his example on page 1 (home page).
However, I want to use system generate tabular form to finish this example, and was not able to populate the data correctly.
Page 2 (method 2) is the one that I am having trouble to populate the column values. When I checked application item values in Session, and the values seems to be populated correctly.
This is what I have done on this page:
1. Create an Application Process On Demand - Set_Multi_Items_Tabular2:
DECLARE
v_subject my_book_store.subject%TYPE;
v_price my_book_store.price%TYPE;
v_author my_book_store.author%TYPE;
v_qty NUMBER;
CURSOR cur_c
IS
SELECT subject, price, author, 1 qty
FROM my_book_store
WHERE book_id = :temporary_application_item2;
BEGIN
FOR c IN cur_c
LOOP
v_subject := c.subject;
v_price := c.price;
v_author := c.author;
v_qty := c.qty;
END LOOP;
OWA_UTIL.mime_header ('text/xml', FALSE);
HTP.p ('Cache-Control: no-cache');
HTP.p ('Pragma: no-cache');
OWA_UTIL.http_header_close;
HTP.prn ('<body>');
HTP.prn ('<desc>this xml genericly sets multiple items</desc>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f04_' || :t_rownum || '">' || v_subject || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f05_' || :t_rownum || '">' || v_price || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f06_' || :t_rownum || '">' || v_author || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f07_' || :t_rownum || '">' || v_qty || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('</body>');
END;
2. Create two application items - TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM2, T_ROWNUM2
3. Put the following in the Page Header:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function f_set_multi_items_tabular2(pValue, pRow){
    var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,
'APPLICATION_PROCESS=Set_Multi_Items_Tabular2',0);
if(pValue){
get.add('TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM2',pValue)
get.add('T_ROWNUM2',pRow)
}else{
get.add('TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM2','null')
    gReturn = get.get('XML');
    if(gReturn){
        var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("item").length;
        for(var i = 0;i<l_Count;i++){
            var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("item")[i];
            var l_ID = l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('id');
            var l_El = html_GetElement(l_ID);
            if(l_Opt_Xml.firstChild){
                var l_Value = l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue;
            }else{
                var l_Value = '';
            if(l_El){
                if(l_El.tagName == 'INPUT'){
                    l_El.value = l_Value;
                }else if(l_El.tagName == 'SPAN' && l_El.className == 'grabber'){
                    l_El.parentNode.innerHTML = l_Value;
                    l_El.parentNode.id = l_ID;
                }else{
                    l_El.innerHTML = l_Value;
    get = null;
</script>
Add the follwing to the end of the above JavaScript:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function setLOV(filter, list2)
var s = filter.id;
var item = s.substring(3,8);
var field2 = list2 + item;
f_set_multi_items_tabular2(filter, field2);
4. Tabular form query:
select
"BOOK_ID",
"BOOK",
"SUBJECT",
"PRICE",
"AUTHOR",
"QTY",
"BOOK_ID" BOOK_ID_DISPLAY
from "#OWNER#"."MY_BOOK_STORE"
5. In Book_ID_DISPLAY column attribute:
Add the following code to element attributes: onchange="javascript:f_set_multi_items_tabular2(this.value,'#ROWNUM#');"
Changed to -> onchange="javascript:setLOV(this,'f03');"
Now, T_ROWNUM2 returns value as f03_0001. But, TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM2 returns as [object HTMLSelectElement]...
Please help me to see how I can populate the data with this tabular form format. Thanks a lot in advanced!!!

Updated code in Red..

Lets start with looking at what the javascript code is doing.
function f_set_multi_items_tabular(pValue, pRow){
/*This will initiate the url for the demand process to run*/
var get = new htmldb_Get(null,html_GetElement('pFlowId').value,
                          'APPLICATION_PROCESS=Set_Multi_Items_Tabular',0);
if(pValue){
    /*If there is an value than submit item name with value*/
    get.add('TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM',pValue)
    get.add('T_ROWNUM',pRow)
}else{
    /*Else set the item TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM to null*/
    get.add('TEMPORARY_APPLICATION_ITEM','null')
/*Submit the url and te returned document is of type XML*/
gReturn = get.get('XML');
if(gReturn){
    /*There is something returned*/
    var l_Count = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("item").length;
    /*For all elements of the tag item*/
    for(var i = 0;i<l_Count;i++){
      /*Get the item out of the XML*/
      var l_Opt_Xml = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("item")[i];
      /*Get the id of the item*/
      var l_ID = l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('id');
      /*Get the element in the original page with the same id as
      **the item we have in the XML produced by the ondemand process
      var l_El = html_GetElement(l_ID);
      /*Now get the value of the item form the XML*/
      if(l_Opt_Xml.firstChild){
        var l_Value = l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue;
      }else{
        /*There is no value*/
        var l_Value = '';
      if(l_El){
        /*There is an element with the same id as the item we are processing*/
        if(l_El.tagName == 'INPUT'){
          /*The element is an input item just set the value*/
          l_El.value = l_Value;
        }else if(l_El.tagName == 'SPAN' && l_El.className == 'grabber'){
          /*If it is a span elment and has the class grabber
          **Then set the innerHTML of the parent to the value
          **and the id of the parent to the id
          l_El.parentNode.innerHTML = l_Value;
          l_El.parentNode.id = l_ID;
        }else{
          /*Else set the value as innerHTML*/
          l_El.innerHTML = l_Value;
get = null;
Now where it went wrong in your initial post
The XML that was returned by your XML process would be something like
<body>
<desc>this xml genericly sets multiple items</desc>
<item id="f02_1">CSS Mastery</item>
<item id="f03_1">22</item>
<item id="f04_1">Andy Budd</item>
<item id="f05_1">1</item>
</body>
When you don't use apex_item to create your tabular form a item in the table will look like
<input id="f02_0001" type="text" value="CSS Mastery" maxlength="2000" size="16" name="f05" autocomplete="off">
Notice the id's f02_1 and f02_0001 don't match.
So to make it work the XML would have to look like
<body>
<desc>this xml genericly sets multiple items</desc>
<item id="f02_0001">CSS Mastery</item>
<item id="f03_0001">22</item>
<item id="f04_0001">Andy Budd</item>
<item id="f05_0001">1</item>
</body>
To do that simply use lpad in the ondemand process like
HTP.prn ('<item id="f02_' || lpad(:t_rownum,4,'0') || '">' || v_subject || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f03_' || lpad(:t_rownum,4,'0') || '">' || v_price || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f04_' || lpad(:t_rownum,4,'0') || '">' || v_author || '</item>');
HTP.prn ('<item id="f05_' || lpad(:t_rownum,4,'0') || '">' || v_qty || '</item>');
Keep in mind that the above is based on your original post and #ROWNUM# not being lpadded with zero's.

Passing Multiple Values from Multi Select

Hi,
My requirement is simple. I have created a simple Multi Select Option in parameter form and i want to send multiple selected values from the multi select option (in parameter form) to reports.
eg:
I want to send multiple countries code as input .........'US', 'CA', 'IND', 'UK'
Can i do it in Oracle 6i reports, Thanks in Advance.

Asgar

Hi Thanks Again,
For such a nice response. I got the Lexical Where condition properly running but still getting problems in catching the multiple values to be passed from form. just i will give u an insight of wat i have done:
SQL:
SELECT ALL FROM EMPLOYEES &cond_1* -- Working FIne
in my Html Parameter Form i have an Multi Select component (the Problem is here) it is not passing more than i value from the form once i am accessing it from web or running it in paper report. In paper report layout it is not allowing me to select more than one value. but in HTML it is allowing to select multiple values but at the server end (After Parameter Form Trigger) it is giving a single value not multiple values.
In PL/SQL when i checking the length of country_id i m getting it as one.
Here is my SQL code
srw.message(10, LENGTH(:country_id_1));
:cond_1 := 'where country_id = '''|| :country_id_1 ||'''';
This is passing the condition properly to SQL but only with single value but i want to pass multiple values
I am struck in this+_
WHERE CONTRY_COLUMN IN ('USA','UAE') -- This variable you have to pass from you form...
Here as you said you gave multiple selection in your parameter form to generate report. So before generation report just prepare variable like this as it is bold above.
and pass parameter through your runtime form to the report as you pass the normal parameter...liket this i gave you example...
ADD_PARAMETER(PARAMETER_LIST_NAME,'P_CONT_PARAM',TEXT_PARAMETER,vString);
Sorry for troubling you for a small thing but please help me to solve this issue.
Thanks Again............

Displaying All Values from a Multiple Value Parameter

Hi,
Using XI, I have a parameter field that allows the user to enter multiple values Eg. 01, 02, 13, 14. I want to create a formula to display all the values the user has selected.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks,
Brian

join({?Parameter},",")
creates a string with the items in your parameter separated by commas

How do I pass multiple values from a text box to an update statement

I hope this does not sound to lame. I am trying to update multiple values Like this:
Code|| Computer Desc || Computer Price || Computer Name
SEL1 || Apple macbook || 1564 || Apple Macbook Basic
SEL2 || Dell 630 || 1470 || Dell Latitude
I want to change all six values at once in one update statement based on the Code, I can't find a good tutorial/example to help me.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks so much,
Laura

You can do conditional updates with decode or case statements e.g.
SQL> create table t as
2 select 'SEL1' as code, 'Apple macbook' as comp_desc, 1564 as comp_price, 'Apple Maxbook Basic' as comp_name from dual union
3 select 'SEL2', 'Dell 630', 1470, 'Dell Latitude' from dual
4 /
Table created.
SQL>
SQL> update t
2 set comp_desc = CASE code WHEN 'SEL1' THEN 'Test1' Else 'Test2' END,
3      comp_price = CASE code WHEN 'SEL1' THEN 1234 Else 2345 END,
4      comp_name = CASE code WHEN 'SEL1' THEN 'Test1 Name' Else 'Test2 Name' END
5 /
2 rows updated.
SQL>
SQL> select * from t
2 /
CODE COMP_DESC     COMP_PRICE COMP_NAME
SEL1 Test1               1234 Test1 Name
SEL2 Test2               2345 Test2 Name
