Concatenate two rows

Hi,
I have a requirement where i check an table against a list of values in reference data.
I get two rows with just one column each as output every time and i need to concatenate the two rows into one field.
Is there any processor/combination that can be used to do this ?
I have tried concatenate / Merge and Data Merge processors without success.
Any direction is much appreciated.
Thank you,
Sid

Hi Mike,
Here is my target:
I have a CSV file with certain columns:
Column 1 and Column 2 hold some data i am interested in.
I use a reference data to compare column 2 to a list of 2 values. That returns me two rows - always.
Now i want to concatenate value in column 1 for those two rows and that will be my output.
I have nothing to group by and column 1 has completely different values in it.
Like:
C1                                                 C2
This is string1                                   Value Matched with Ref Data1
This is string2                                   Value Matched with Ref Data2
Now am trying to do something that can give me "This is String1~This is String2"
Thanks,
Sid

Concatenate two rows into one drop down? Not order them though

Ok I have two rows:
Group
Original Performance NorGrip
Gold Blank Disc
Gold Blank Disc
Truckbed Liner Kit
Then I have another one:
Attribute
Grade
Grade
Dimensions
However, I don't want them combined on top of one another.
I want it so a person can select like so:
Original Performance NorGrip Grade
Gold Blank Disc Grade
Gold Blank Disc Dimensions
Truckbed Liner Kit (no value in the other column)
The truckbed liner kit has no attribute value in the column so I would rather the option not show at all... So as long as the attribute column is filed, combine the two and show it in a validation list..
I know how to create lists and then make them validation lists, but this is stumping me..

From your example and description, I'm not sure I understand what you are starting with. Do you have a grid (group, etc across the top; attribute etc in rows, with som marker that shows which combinations are valid and which arent? Or do you have two rows
(or columns) that /only/ contain the valid combinations?
If you have them in two rows (or columns) containing only the valid combinations, then you can insert a third row (or column) as a helper column and just concatenate the two values, like A3 =A1 & " " & A2
Then either use that range to feed your validation list on the same page, or turn it into a named range and feed a validation list on another sheet.

How to concatenate many rows to be one row?

Hi,
How can I do if I concatenate two rows or many rows become one row in the same column with different values (CHAR or VARCHAR2). It's possible to do that?
Ex:
Column A
ABCD
EFGH
to become
Column A
ABCDEFGH....
Anybody can help me, please...
I will very appreciated.
Thanks,
Leny

I'm not sure if SQL Plus supports this feature. But programmatically it is possible if you use oracle procedure. Also if you're using some front end application (like VB, ASP etc) where you need the concatenated result then you can easily concatenate all rows under a loop on Recordset.

Concatenate multiple rows in a single column

Hi
I am using Web Intelligence v4.0x (i think) and I am hoping to get help.
My query (from Performance Management Module) has a field name called "Device Name" and it has two rows, server1 and server 2 (maximum of 33 servers)
I am trying to concatenate these values so that a blank cell in a report reads
"Devices are: server1, server2"
I am not able to concatenate server1 and server2 (i.e. get server1, server2) in the above statement. I've tried to use Previous(Self) and it does not work. I get output in two rows as
server1,
server2,
Any assistance or direction is appreciated.
Thanks - Kev

Hi Jothi,
The solution that helped me earlier
"VAR1 =Replace(ReportFilter([Customer]);";";",")"
worked for one Customer ID that had two (or more) invoice# related to that Customer ID.
If there is more than one customer ID fetched by the query, the above solution merges all the related invoice# in that variable and does not merge invoice# per Customer ID.
E.g.
Customer ID     Invoice ID
0001               P100
0001               P101
0002               P150
0002               P151
Desired Output
Customer ID     Invoice ID
0001               P100, P101
0002               P150, P151
Actual Output: The query merges as:
Customer ID     Invoice ID
0001               P100, P101, P150, P151
0002               P100, P101, P150, P151
and so on till the last customer ID is fetched.
Is it possible to tweak the query to obtain the Desired Output? Your help is appreciated.

Trigger to concatenate two fields in a table

Hi
I am trying to concatenate two column in a table and add to the third column in the same table, all the columns are
numbers, I want to write a trigger which is after insert to do that..does anyone know how its done...
thanks a lot
Jessica

Hi, Jessica,
Welcome to the forum!
Do you really need to store this concatenation? The way you would get these results in a normalized database is to store the numbers separately, and comnbine them, when necessary, in queries and reports. You can use use a view to avoid repeating the same coiding over and over.
If you really want to store the value, use a BEFORE INSERT OR UPDATE trigger, like this:
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER     table_x_biu
BEFORE     INSERT OR UPDATE
ON     table_x
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
     :NEW.column_3 := TO_CHAR (:NEW.column_1)
                || '-'
                || TO_CHAR (:NEW.column_2);
END;I'm confused by your exact requirements. Concatentaion can only be done to strings.
If column_1 and column_2 are NUMBERs, the trigger above will make string versions of those numbers, concatenate them together (with a hyphen between them), and put the results in the VARCHAR2 column column_3.
So after this statement:
INSERT INTO table_x (column_1, column_2, column_3)
       VALUES          (1,     2,       '9-8');the new row will have column_3= '1-2'. (In this case, there is no point in explicitly setting column_3, because the trigger will always set the value based entirely on column_1 and column_2.)
If you need more help, post CREATE TABLE , INSERT and UPDATE statements, and who what you want the table to contain after each INSERT or UPDATE.

How to create CSV data with a cell including two rows?

Hi guys,
i am creating CSV using "comma" as seperator for columns, "return" as seperator for rows.
But how can I create a cell which includes two rows?
I want to do following:
cell1    cell2    cell3
XXXXX    YYYYY    ZZZZZ
in cell2 YYYYY, there are two sub rows:
YLine1.1     YLine1.2       YLine1.3
YLine2.1     YLine2.2       YLine2.3
Which kind of seperator can I use for these sub rows?
so to say(XML mode):
<row>
<Col1>XXXXX</Col1 >
<Col2>
    <row>
<col1>YLine1.1</col1>
<col1>YLine1.2</col1>
<col1>YLine1.3</col1>
</row>
    <row>
<col1>YLine2.1</col1>
<col1>YLine2.2</col1>
<col1>YLine2.3</col1>
</row>
</Col2 >
<Col3>ZZZZZ</Col3 >
</row>
It is very kind of you to give me some hint!

Hi Wang Liying,
I tried with Excel. A Cell with 2 rows saved as CSV shows that the cells contents are enclosed in hyphens "b row 2 b" and the two rows ins one cell are separated with HEX 0A. This is a simple Line feed. The sequence to build this would be in ABAP
concatenate
<row1>
CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>NEWLINE
<row2>
into cell.
I did not take the time to try on system, but I tried to open with excel: It works with Windows.

Alv field heading in two rows

hi all
In alv report out put the field heading is too long.
So I want to disply the heading in two rows.
Like April 2006 prior month personal,
Is to be disply like in one row April 2006.
And in next row prior month personal.
Please send the reply as early as possible to [email protected]

i think it is not possible like that , u can increase the length of that field in fieldcatalog
wa_fieldname-outputlen = '100'.
and in layout u can use
wa_layout-colwidth_optimize = 'X'.

How can I move App Tabs to the bottom, where the other bookmark toolbars are? Or, how can I put my bookmark toolbars in two rows and forget the App Tabs?

I have several bookmarks on my toolbar, and my most often used ended up in a pull-down menu, which is annoying. I tried to click and drag them onto the menu bar, because there was room for more icons, but they won't budge. Nothing under "Toolbars" was helpful. Help would tell me to right click on my toolbar and then click on "Customize"...which didn't come up as an option. I would really like all my toolbar bookmarks (I only have about 10) to be visible on the actual toolbar, not hidden away in a small pulldown tab.
There is a plug-in that enables you to put bookmarks in two rows on your toolbars, but it is not compatible with my version of FF (7.0.1).
App Tabs are cute, but I don't like them on top where they take up room where I have the tabs for various websites open (I usually have several open at a time). App Tabs are fixed and don't scroll over like website tabs, which is extremely annoying, and hence why I 1)would like to move them to the bottom of the toolbar or 2)be able to display all my bookmarked toolbars --which is what I prefer.
BTW, I have Windows 7.
Thanks in advance for your help.

App tabs are special tabs and are always displayed at the left end of the tab bar.
You can place all bookmarks that you want to see on the Bookmarks Toolbar in the Bookmarks Toolbar folder.<br />
You can do that in the side bar or the Bookmarks manager if you can't do it on the Bookmarks Toolbar.<br />
Most Visited is a special (smart) folder that shows websites that you've visited and that aren't necessarily bookmarks, so you can't drag them on the bookmarks toolbar unless you first bookmark them. You can do that by opening them in a tab and clicking the star on the location bar twice and choose the Bookmarks Toolbar as the destination folder.

Add new row in table between two rows - OATableBean

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to add a new row between two rows. Lets say I have a table with 5 rows. I am envisioning having an icon (table switcher) on the row #1, which when clicked will insert/create a new row between rows #1 and #2 like #1.5, something that can be achieved in core forms. In core forms, when we click the add button, it immediately creates a new row before the current row ( and pushes other rows down). Is that possible with OATableBean. Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks,
Ravi.

Hi,
I used following code to insert the row in the end
public void createNewRow()
XXEGASRLinesVOImpl vo =getXXEGASRLinesVO1();
Row row1 ;
int i;
Row row[] = vo.getAllRowsInRange();
row1 = vo.createRow(); //vo.createRowSet("10");
vo.insertRowAtRangeIndex(row.length,row1);//.insertRow();
row1.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
Check if it works for you, you have to modify it to meet your requirement.
