Create App From Spreadsheet: "column name is an Oracle reserved word"

I'm creating an App from a spreadsheet on apex.oracle.com (3.0.0.00.20 at time of writing) and receiving the error "The identified column name is an Oracle reserved word. Please choose another name."
I've tried adding an underscore to the end of each column name in order to avoid having to check every column name (yup, lazy) but that didn't remove the error, nor is any column name identified by the interface.
Thoughts?

Hi David,
There was a bug at one time where reserved words were not being checked properly when creating columns. A particular problem related to names beginning with "SYS".
Try adding the underscore in front of the column name.
Regards
Andy

Create application from spreadsheet failing - APEX 3.0

Create Application from Spreadsheet failing (wrong column order) on the upload
example csv columns are nameA, nameB, nameC
Upload as csv
The column order of the csv file changes....(its random).
example csv is nameC, nameB, nameA -.but sometimes it works after numerous tries uploading it (column order is correct - same as csv file)
I have another apex/db (10.1.0.4.2) installation(same version 3.0) where it works all the time(same csv file)
The database for the failing Apex installation is (10.2.0.1.0)
ANY IDEA???...could be a a database caching issue or a wrong db parameter?

What table gets populated when you upload a csv file via create application from spreadsheet (is it only APEX_APPLICATION_FILES)? Because if i import the csv file in the repository it looks file when i download it. I not sure what controls the order of the csv file column order upon the upload create application from spreadsheet process. This is a very perplexing problem since it works on another apex 3.0/10.1 database environment.
thanks

CREATE INDEX WITH DUPLICATE COLUMN NAME

Hi,
i need to interface our application with an Orale Bridge to CREATE INDEX with duplcate column Name.
For Example
CREATE index NLOT_FOURNLOT_idx ON NLOT(FOURNISSEUR ,NOLOT ,FOURNISSEUR ,NOBLFOUNISSEUR,NOLIGNEBL ,NOLOT ,QTECOLISRECUES ,CODENONQUALITE ,QTECOLISACCEPTE);
CREATE table NLOT(
FOURNISSEUR VARCHAR2(09)
,NOBLFOURNISSEUR VARCHAR2(13)
,NOLIGNEBL VARCHAR2(03)
,NOLOT VARCHAR2(20)
,QTECOLISRECUES VARCHAR2(10)
,CODENONQUALITE VARCHAR2(02)
,QTECOLISACCEPTE VARCHAR2(10)
,NOMBREDECOLISRE VARCHAR2(10)
,NOMBREDECOLISAC VARCHAR2(10)
,FILLER VARCHAR2(1)
,FILLE1 VARCHAR2(1)
,TYPEREFERENCE VARCHAR2(01)
,REFERENC1 VARCHAR2(15)
,CONTROLERECEPTI VARCHAR2(01)
,DATEDEPEREMPTIO VARCHAR2(8)
,CONTROLEPROCHAI VARCHAR2(1)
Thanks

Well, you can't do it. ORA-957 is one of those irrevocable errors for which the solution is to remove the duplicate name from the SQL statement.
But, anyway, why do you want to do this? I would guess there's no performance benefit from having the same column indexed twice (of course it's impossible to test this, so it's just my opinion).

Problem creating application from spreadsheet(.csv)

I am experiencing a problem while creating an application from a spreadsheet (.csv file). I select upload csv file, the filename, and on the set table properties page the columns are in random order. Normally, the columns follow the order of the first line of the .csv file with comma separated column names. If the columns are not in the order specified in the .csv file, it cannot be loaded. I have used this method a few times and never had this problem in the past. Any information is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hello,
Sure you cannot utilize the spread sheet functions in creating a Database app.
You can do what you want by either using SQL function in the Report source, or if you use Interactive report then you can do it using Actions Menu >> Format >> compute .. Then you save your report as a default report.

How to get the alias name of an attribute of a VO from its column name?

How can I programmatically get the alias name of an attribute of a VO given its column name?
Often alias and column names are not same when the VO is created (and I don't require them to be the same)

Hello John.
I will be more precise. When the VO based on a table comes out from the wizard, it produces xml entries like the following one:
<ViewAttribute
Name="ColumnName"
AliasName="COLUMN_NAME"/>There the column of the table on the DB really is COLUMN_NAME. The wizard mangles that name producing ColumnName as Name property.
This is ok. I don't want to change this default behaviour.
What I need is to programmatically get the value of that attribute given its AliasName property value:
String f(ViewObject vo, String AliasName) {
return (String)vo.getCurrentRow().getAttributeFromAliasName(aliasName); // getAttributeFromAliasName does not exist
// instead of return (String)vo.getCurrentRow().getAttribute(Name);
That is, usually getAttribute expects what in the xml is the Name property. However, I want a sort of getAttribute() expecting the AliasName.
I hope it's clear.

App Builder - Create App from InDesign - "Sign In Failed - Please Try Again"

I'm launching the App Builder from the Folio Builder Panel in InDesign (CC), by selecting my folio and choosing "Create App". When App Builder launches, it immediately errors, saying "Sign in failed, pelase try again". I can select "Log Out" in the corner, and Log In (successfully), but then a message box appears telling me to create an app I need to launch app builder from the folio builder panel.
I have read the support article regarding folio and article names causing an error, but all my names appear to be ok - all just smallcase, no spaces or special characters.
Anyone have any tips?
Thanks,
Gary

Make sure that you use your Creative Cloud account to sign in to the Folio Builder panel, and then choose Create App. If that doesn't work, try signing out of the Folio Builder panel, choose Create App, and then sign in.

Create app from database doesn't work

hi all, i am new to developing in flex, and just set up a
test-database (php, mysql) - i created a php project, and when i
choose data->create application from database nothing happens
... just nothing ... any help would be very much appreciated, i am
sure it's a no-brainer, but i just can't figure it out at this
stage ... i run a full version of flex 3 pro

Did you check the online documentation ? [http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPIMPORT_MEDIUM.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_4@4@]
I see your code has differences from the example provided in the standard documentation.

Query from variable column name?

Running on LAMP
Table - CONTACTS (35 COLUMNS APPROX)
I want to be able to create a results page from a detailed
query.
My first attempt was to include 35 text fields in a form and
then build the query: like '%namesearch%' and like
'%companysearch%' and like '%companytype%' etc. etc. etc.
But this is time consuming and prone to bugs.
I though a much easier way would be to have two fields: one
criteria field and one field representing the column you want to
search in....
Hmm...
This is the query that I thought might work.
SELECT * FROM CONTACTS
WHERE 'colsearch' LIKE '%critsearch%'
ORDER BY COMPANY, FULLNAME
Obviously 'colsearch' is a variable from a menu drop down
field.
Strangely, if I set the default value for colsearch as
COMPANY and default value for critsearch as '%', it does seem to
return a result (all records) on the page load (I have the form and
results on the same page) but if I hit submit, it returns no
recordset!
Is this even possible?
CODE:
$colsearch_recordlookup = "COMPANY";
if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['scolumn'])) {
$colsearch_recordlookup = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?
$HTTP_POST_VARS['scolumn'] :
addslashes($HTTP_POST_VARS['scolumn']);
$critsearch_recordlookup = "%";
if (isset($HTTP_POST_VARS['scriteria'])) {
$critsearch_recordlookup = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ?
$HTTP_POST_VARS['scriteria'] :
addslashes($HTTP_POST_VARS['scriteria']);
mysql_select_db($database_dbcrm1, $dbcrm1);
$query_recordlookup = sprintf("SELECT * FROM CONTACTS WHERE
'%s' LIKE '%%%s%%' ORDER BY COMPANY, FULLNAME",
$colsearch_recordlookup,$critsearch_recordlookup);

The name of the column should not be in quotes:
SELECT * FROM CONTACTS
WHERE colsearch LIKE '%critsearch%'
ORDER BY COMPANY, FULLNAME

Creating chart from single column of multiple tables in Numbers '09

I have multiple tables (spread across multiple sheets) in my document. In column B of each table is a name. The other columns contain other categorized data. Each table has a variable number of rows, but each name is unique within a table. A particular name in any one table may or may not occur in another.
What I want to do is create a chart that shows the total number of times each unique name occurs across all the tables. Not really sure how to do this...
I would also like to be able to sort the chart from highest to lowest.

That won't quite work, as I have hundreds of names to process. It was a good starting point though. Here's what I had to do:
1) create a new table (mynames) containing all the names in mynames::A
2) in mynames::B1 put the formula =SUM(COUNTIF(Table 1::A, A1), COUNTIF(Table 2::A, A1), ...)
3) Select column mynames::B and then choose *INSERT -> Fill Down* from the menu
It becomes a bit tedious to have to update the formula and refill the column every time I add another data table. Imagine if I had hundreds of tables to enter. Hmmm....
I currently have one table per sheet, but if I were to move all the tables onto one sheet, categorize a column, and then collapse all the categories, that wouldn't take up too much space on one sheet. Say I had 100 tables, I could then reduce the formula to:
=COUNTIF(Table 1:Table 100::A, A1)
I would also have to make sure to place the mynames table before Table 1 in the table list. All in all, much less of a hassle to add new table data.
Hopefully, Apple will add multi-sheet spanning collections, in the same way you can do multi-table collections now.

Create Table from Spreadsheet Error / Privileges

Using Application Express 2.2.0.00.32.
I can create a table using the Object Browser or via the SQL Command utility. If I try to load data from a csv or create an application from a spreadsheet, I get the following:
ORA-20001: Unable to create modules. ORA-20001: create_table error: ORA-20001: Excel load run ddl error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
I've tried searching the forums, but haven't found the needle in this haystack yet.
Probably a common problem but it has me perplexed.
What piece of the puzzle am I not understanding?
Thanks.

Then make sure the parsing schema of that other workspace has create table privilege granted directly to it. Better yet, review the system privileges of the working schema and make sure the broken schema has the same privs. Do not grant privileges using roles.

I would like to create a custom datagridview column containing text images and MS Word OLE objects

I am an old time LabView programmer going back to 2.0. But moved on with my career several years ago. But here I am back attempting a custom column in dataviewgrid control. .NET is hard. My goal is to read in an MS Word document and parse it out to a custom column. The column will contain regular old text, images and MS Word objects, sometimes called OLE objects.
There is scant information on creating .NET and labview when it comes to form manipulation. I have stuggled through the learning curve and now able to insert a text box column into a datagridview and add it to the form container and actually size it to the datagridview control. I've added a menu, but still figuring out the layout class. Did I say .NET is hard?
I know there must be a custom column created and even found a C# example, sorta. Trouble is the example uses easy stuff like override and private. It will take me another 3 weeks for that, darnit I'm getting lazy.
Does anybody out there have some example of a custom column in the datagridview?
If you ask to post code. I have nothing I would be proud to show.
The sorta go by: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/31823/RichTextBox-Cell-in-a-DataGridView

This is what the progress looks like so far. I broke the tasks down in sub VIs. One to create a custom cell so I can add it to the column CellTemplate. The other to add the column to the control. My limited knowledge of .NET and the implementation in LV causes me to question the value of LV .NET.
The coding to create a TextBoxCell override with ImageCell CellTemplate. Honestly I'm guessing what to do, because the LV documentation on inheritance and overriding is poor at best.
The column coding to add the cell to the custom column.
Probe 19 always comes up with an error. The error is the standard 1172 with no clue what is causing it. The "index" will work on 0 or 1, I suspect bc the two cell types are 0 and 1 but nothing tells me that, just guessing.

Create PDF from PL/SQL-Interface XML FOP / Oracle BI / Oracle APEX packages

Hi All,
I think this is perhaps the most often asked question. And people suggest using PL-FPDF or PL PDF. There is a constraint, I can't use PL PDF because of monetary reasons.
I wish I could use some method to output PDF from the PL/SQL. I already have a document (word document stored as CLOB). Now, I need to output this file as PDF. I know doing this outside database is easy and advisable, but this what I have been asked to do.
Is there any method of implementation, using either XML - FOP or Oracle BI publisher or Oracle APEX tools (and not Oracle APEX itself, I know how to do this if the application is built, run using Oracle APEX, but this is plain Oracle HTP).
Database: Oracle 9.2 running in Windows server.
Thanks in advance.
Guru

Apologies for that.
I am looking into ways to use Apex. Like calling the FOP in Oracle OC4J server and generating PDF from it. As I told already, we have this application built on Oracle HTP, we can't move to Oracle Apex now. I can install Oracle APEX and use the tools it offers. No problem in that.
PL-FPDF is free, but I can see this doesn't help much. What I have is CLOB, not data from table. :(
I am just looking into different ways one can do this.

Modifying Column names before Migrating to Oracle 9i

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to Migrate a SQL Server 7 database to an ORACLE 9i using the Migration Workbench tool.
I have noticed the Migration Workbench changes some of our column names that are ORACLE RESERVED WORDS. Migration Workbench adds an underscore to the end of such column names. I need to keep the column names the same.
I select a schema object On ORACLE MODEL PANE but Migration Workbench does not allow me to change the column name nor any of the its properties.
I know that i could add a new column (e.g. DATE)and insert the data from the existing column (e.g. DATE_) and then drop the column but out developers don't like this approach!
Thank you in advance for all your help!
Mitra

I am having the exact same problem. I dont think oracle migration work bench supports this i.e. changing the field names before we actuall complete the migration. So what I did was generate the DDL and clear up all the unnessasary '_' values from the DDL and then create the proper schema. I know this isn't the right way od doing things but I dont know of any other way. Keep in mind that I just started work on oracle like 2 weeks ago.
