-- eliminate the necessity of writing the same query more than once.
WITH Clause will add readability of code.
If the scenario is such that you need to write the same query inline multiple times, you can name it using WITH clause and then use it.
In some cases it improves the performance as well. Some times it creates global temp table for the query specified in WITH clause. It can improve performance drastically, if the query is complex.
The life time of the temp table is only till that query executes.....

Non-sense error message trying to create view

Greetings All,
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production on Windows 2008R2
I am getting an error while trying to create a view. The error makes no sense in that no attempt to change a user name or password as the error message being produced suggests.
I can execute the entire select statement fine, I get results back.
If I comment out the line indicated as being in error, the problem moves to the line prior to the one commented out. The 4 lines prior to the line indicated by the error message are similar. The error is occurring on the last of the 5 similar lines of code.
If I move all 5 lines further up in the code the error moves accordingly.
The function validate_number (near where the error is identified) under certain conditions will issue a execute immediate 'alter session set nls_numeric_characters = ''.,''';
The column number identified in the error message is 2 spaces prior to the validate_number function call.
Below is the syntax for the creation of the view, the error message is at the bottom.
The numbers to the far left indicate the line number. I put 2 blank lines before and after the line of code identified by the error message.
The error points to the 2-spaces in front of the VALIDATE_NUMBER function call on line 350. just before the sql code ==> validate_number(Spend_Qty,'')),0) <==
Thanks for your time,
Bob

Checking for privileges was the first thing I did.
User has create view and create any view.
Also has alter session privilege which is needed within the validate_number function (see below).
I was able to create the view you suggested.
I believe there is a privilege problem, just cant figure which.
create or replace function validate_number(p_number      in varchar2,

v_number number;
v_mask   varchar2(100) := '999999999999999999999.00000000000000000000';
cursor get_number_masks is

where type = 'NUMBER' order by sequence, is_i18n;
begin

      return to_number(p_number, p_format_mask);

Create View with Force and No Force

Can Anyone Tell me how to create view with force and no force i have very little idea about this

This is the syntax.
CREATE [OR REPLACE] FORCE VIEW view
[(alias[, alias]...)]
AS subquery
[WITH CHECK OPTION [CONSTRAINT constraint]]
[WITH READ ONLY [CONSTRAINT constraint]];You can see interesting threads about this topic here.

How to create view in OBIEE

I have table 'Table 1' with columns Attr1,Attr2,Measure 1,Measure 2.I need to create view in the repository from table with Attr1,Measure1 and new Attribute 3 with values as flag 'Y' in to it.What will be the SQL for the new view.Please provide the exact Syntax for the view.
Thanks in Advance

Hi Hsekar,
The view SQL Syntax is standard ANSI SQL. From what I understand, you have a table named "Table 1" which has four columns, "Attr1", "Attr2", "Measure 1", "Measure 2". You want to create a new measure named "Attribute 3" (I'd recommend not having spaces in your column and table names FYI).
If that's correct, then try this
1. In the physical layer, change the object type to view.
2. Put the following SQL in the box
Select "Table 1"."Attr 1","Table 1"."Measure 1", 'Y' "Attribute 3"
From "Table 1"
3. Define your columns in the object appropriately.
That should do it for you.

Is it possible to create views with parameters ?

Hi,
As MS-Access, is it possible to create views with parameters ?
Ms-Access syntax : parameters [a] text; select * from table where code = [a]
If yes, can you give samples ?
Regards
Pascal

I suggest you you write a stored procedure that returns a recordset in oracle. Then execute the stored procedure and loop through the record set.
Look in in MS Knowledgebase searching on ADO Stored Proceedures for the VB/C++/VBS .. code.
Look in in Oracle PL/SQL guide for the Stored Proceedure code.

Call procedure while creating view in hana.

Can we call procedure while creating a attribute view like
CREATE VIEW "PAYROLLDBTEST"."@HourTransactionView"
"DocEntry",
"DocNum",
"EmpID",
"EmpCode",
"FullName",
"TableName",
"TranName",
"U_FromDate",
"U_ToDate",
"NoOfDays",
"U_FromTime",
"U_ToTime",
"NoOfHours",
"OvertimeHours",
"UnpaidDays",
"Weekends",
"Holidays",
"U_Remarks",
"U_BatchNo",
"ProjectCode"
) AS SELECT
T0."DocEntry" AS DocEntry,
    T0."DocNum" AS DocNum,
   T0."U_EmpCode" AS EmpID,
CALL PAYROLLDBTEST.GetEmpCodeFromEmployeeID('EmpID') ,              (getting syntax error here).
    GetEmployeeFullName("@TRANSACTION_HOURS".U_EmpCode) AS FullName,
      T0."U_TransactionType" AS TranCode,
    GetHourTableName("U_TransactionType") AS TableName,
     GetHourTransactionName("U_TransactionType") AS TranName,
    T0."U_FromDate",
    T0. "U_ToDate",
      DAYS_BETWEEN("U_FromDate", "U_ToDate") + 1 AS NoOfDays,
      T0."U_FromTime" AS U_FromTime,
       T0."U_ToTime" AS U_ToTime,
    IFNULL("U_WorkHours", 0) AS NoOfHours,
     IFNULL("U_OvertimeHours", 0) AS OvertimeHours,

Hello,
The problem could be a SAPGUI related problem... Whats the current sapgui patch level ? Does it work when you try on another wokstation with the same user ?
Could you please use SAPGUI 720 and update your patch level to 7 ? Then check the behaviour again.
Best regards
Rene

Trouble Creating Views

I'm not sure if this is a SQL Developer issue or a SQL issue, so if I'm in the wrong place, someone please let me know.
Using SQL Developer 1.5.0.53, I'm trying to create a view. I've written my SQL for the view and I can run it in a SQL worksheet and it works just like I expect. So I go to my "Views" folder, right click and choose "New View" and enter the exact same SQL (without a semicolon at the end) that works in the SQL worksheet into the "SQL Query" window of the "Create View" dialog box. Then when I press the "Test Syntax" button I get the following error message
The SQL syntax is valid, however the query is invalid or uses functionality that is not supported.
This error sort of ticks me off, so I go to the SQL Worksheet and do a
CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW… bla bla bla
And it creates my view, and it seems to work just like I expect it to. Does anyone have any ideas why I can manually create this view in a SQL worksheet, but not through the "New View" dialog box?
Below is the exact SQL I use to create my view
SELECT
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."PARENT" "PARENT",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."CHILD" "CHILD",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."CHILD_ALIAS" "CHILD_ALIAS",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."CHILD_STORAGE" "CHILD_STORAGE",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."CHILD_AGG" "CHILD_AGG",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."VAR_REPORTING" "VAR_REPORTING",
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."TIME_BALANCE" "TIME_BALANCE",
"HS_ACCOUNT_MEMBER_V"."MEMBERFORMULA" "MEMBERFORMULA",
level "PARENT_GEN"
FROM
"HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T" "HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T" left outer join "HS_ACCOUNT_MEMBER_V"
on "HS_FPR_ACCOUNT_T"."CHILD" = "HS_ACCOUNT_MEMBER_V"."NAME"
start with PARENT = 'Account'
connect by prior CHILD= PARENT
order by level,
decode(CHILD, 'ZZZZZZ', '0',
'COP', '1',
'ZZZZ'),
CHILD
and it gives me this error:
The SQL syntax is valid, however the query is invalid or uses functionality that is not supported.
Cannot find relation "HS_ACCOUNT_MEMBER_V".
Any insight anyone might have on this would be appreciated.
Thanks

I had this same problem.
You have a corrupted file somewhere in this directory:
C:\Documents and Settings\<your_user_name>\Application Data\SQL Developer
Before you read further, recognize that this may be the default directory where sql developer will put your sql files, so make sure you don't harm those! Plus, you will lose your preferences and database connections, so make sure you know how to set them up again before you continue. Backups of this directory would be wise. :)
I solved this problem (and a host of others, by the way), by deleting this directory (after backing up my sql files elsewhere) and running sql developer again.
Of course, I lost all the preference settings, database connections, etc., so I had to type those in again.
I believe it happened by importing a set of preferences built on another machine, but I haven't had time to go back and prove that.

CREATE VIEW with PreparedStatement

Hi guys,
I'm trying to run a CREATE VIEW statement, which I have been doing up till now just using a regular Statement, and using the executeUpdate() method. It's been working fine for a while, and now i've hit a bit of a problem.
I can't include a WHERE clause in a Statement, as it doesn't like the single quotations (') and wildcards. After searching this forum, I saw that I should be using a PreparedStatement, and using the setString() method to put in the ' and %'s.
Now when I try to run the PreparedStatement using the executeUpdate() method, I get the "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'VIEW'" error. Can anyone tell me if i'm using the right method for executing the PreparedStatement, or what i'm doing wrong?
Regards,
Jack Smith

SQL statements are often broken up into two classes, DML (data manipulation language) and DDL (data definition language). DML contains the normal CRUD statements, INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE and anything else that modifes the data but not the data structure. DDL is the set of statements that manipulates the data structure, things like CREATE, ALTER, DROP.
As a general rule of thumb, you shouldn't do DDL in a PreparedStatement.
PreparedStatements exist primarily to allow late-binding of data-value objects into the internal datastructure within the database that represents a parsed SQL statement's execution plan. It is NOT a mechanism for doing string substitution (though I understand who it can look that way to beginners).
Another way of saying this is that PreparedStatement is based on the distinction between data and code; in a DDL statement, the entire statement is code.
There are a few drivers/databases where this might happen to work, because they aren't really seriously implementing PreparedStatement but merely doing string replacement to fake it. I very much doubt SQL server is going to be one of these.

How can I control creation of empty tags when using ora:view syntax?

I'm using XMLQuery and ora:view syntax to create xml resources in the database but I'd like to be able to prevent the creation of empty tags for null values in the table.
CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE proc_ctsi_build is
XMLdoc XMLType;
BEGIN
DBMS_XDB.deleteResource('/public/CTSI/ctsi_phsall_rpt1.xml',1);
SELECT XMLQuery(
'<Progress_Report>
<Personnel_Roster>
{for $c in ora:view("CTSI_INVEST_SOURCE_V")
    let $username := $c/ROW/COMMONS_USERNAME/text(),
$expertise := $c/ROW/AREA_OF_EXPERTISE/text()
     return
<Investigator>
   <Commons_Username>{$username}</Commons_Username>
<Area_of_Expertise>{$expertise}</Area_of_Expertise>
</Investigator>}
</Personnel_Roster>
</Progress_Report>'
RETURNING CONTENT) INTO XMLdoc FROM DUAL;
IF(DBMS_XDB.CREATERESOURCE('/public/CTSI/ctsi_phsall_rpt1.xml', XMLdoc)) THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Resource is created');
ELSE
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('Cannot create resource');
END IF;
COMMIT;
END;
In this example how can I prevent getting <Area_of_Expertise/> in my output when AREA_OF_EXPERTISE is null in the table?
Thanks

Hi,
you can use if else conditions.
{if ($expertise) then
<Area_of_Expertise>{$expertise}</Area_of_Expertise>
else ()}

Problem with embeding the same view in dynamically created view container

Hello Experts,
              I am getiing a dump when i try to embed the same view inside the dynamically created view container of
dynamically created tabs of a tabstrip
The requirement go like this, i have 2 views in which i have have to embed the 2nd view to view1 where i have an empty
tabstrip without tabs. During runtime i create tabs as well as view containers accordingly and then try to embed view2 in tabs.
I have put the below mentioned code in HANDLEIN,
DATA: lref_vcntlr TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_controller,
        lref_comp    TYPE REF TO if_wd_component_usage,
        lv_embed_pos TYPE string.
lref_vcntlr = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
lv_embed_pos = 'FILE_PERS_EDIT/VC_GENERAL'.
TRY.
      CALL METHOD lref_vcntlr->do_dynamic_navigation
        EXPORTING
          source_window_name        = 'FILE_PERSISTENCE_WND'          " Window
          source_vusage_name        = 'FILE_PERS_EDIT_USAGE_1'       " Source View usage
          source_plug_name          = 'TO_EDIT_LAYOUT'                       " Outbound plug
          target_view_name          = 'PERS_EDIT_LAYOUT'                  " Second view to be embedded
          target_plug_name          = 'IN'                                                  " Second view inboun plug
          target_embedding_position = lv_embed_pos
        RECEIVING
          component_usage           = lref_comp.
    CATCH cx_wd_runtime_repository .
ENDTRY.
wd_this->fire_to_edit_layout_plg( ).
This works fine for the first time.
However onaction tab select i change the embeding position( 'FILE_PERS_EDIT/view container name of different tab') of the view2 an try to embed view2 in a different tab.
At this point i get a dump stating View2 already present in the window 'FILE_PERSISTENCE_WND' of component.
I think, the view2 embediing has to be removed before i add the view2 in a different tab
Kindly let me know how to remove view2 embedding from tab1 before i add a view2 to a different tab or is there any other
means to handle this problem?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Srini.

Hello Srini,
I found a solution to your problem, because I had a similar task.
In WDDOINIT I changed the method do_dynamic_navigation to if_wd_navigation_services_new~prepare_dynamic_navigation:
DATA:
    l_view_controller_api TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_controller.
l_view_controller_api = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
TRY.
      CALL METHOD l_view_controller_api->if_wd_navigation_services_new~prepare_dynamic_navigation
        EXPORTING
          source_window_name        = 'WDW_MAIN'
          source_vusage_name        = 'VW_SUB_USAGE_1'
          source_plug_name          = 'TO_VW_CONTENT'
          target_component_name     = 'ZTEST_DYNAMIC'
          target_view_name          = 'VW_CONTENT'
          target_plug_name          = 'DEFAULT'
          target_embedding_position = 'VW_MAIN/VC_TAB.VW_SUB/TAB1_VC'
        RECEIVING
          repository_handle         = wd_this->g_rep_handle.
    CATCH cx_wd_runtime_repository .
ENDTRY.
wd_this->fire_to_vw_content_plg( param1 = 'TAB1' ).
In the action I first deleted the navigation targets, then navigated to the empty-view and last I called my target view:
DATA:
    lv_position           TYPE string,
    l_view_controller_api TYPE REF TO if_wd_view_controller,
    lr_view_usage         TYPE REF TO if_wd_rr_view_usage,
    lr_view_***_t         TYPE wdrr_vca_objects,
    lr_view_***           LIKE LINE OF lr_view_***_t.
l_view_controller_api = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
lr_view_usage = wd_this->g_view->get_view_usage( ).
lr_view_usage->delete_all_navigation_targets( plug_name = 'TO_VW_CONTENT' ).
CLEAR lv_position.
CONCATENATE 'VW_MAIN/VC_TAB.VW_SUB/' old_tab '_VC' INTO lv_position.
TRY.
      l_view_controller_api->if_wd_navigation_services_new~do_dynamic_navigation(
      source_window_name = 'WDW_MAIN'
      source_vusage_name = 'VW_SUB_USAGE_1'
      source_plug_name   = 'TO_EMPTYVIEW'
      target_component_name = 'ZTEST_DYNAMIC'
      target_view_name   = 'EMPTYVIEW'
      target_plug_name   = 'DEFAULT'
      target_embedding_position = lv_position ).
    CATCH cx_wd_runtime_repository.
ENDTRY.
CLEAR lv_position.
CONCATENATE 'VW_MAIN/VC_TAB.VW_SUB/' tab '_VC' INTO lv_position.
TRY.
      wd_this->g_rep_handle = l_view_controller_api->if_wd_navigation_services_new~prepare_dynamic_navigation(
        source_window_name = 'WDW_MAIN'
        source_vusage_name = 'VW_SUB_USAGE_1'
        source_plug_name   = 'TO_VW_CONTENT'
        target_component_name = 'ZTEST_DYNAMIC'
        target_view_name   = 'VW_CONTENT'
        target_plug_name   = 'DEFAULT'
        target_embedding_position = lv_position ).
    CATCH cx_wd_runtime_repository.
ENDTRY.
wd_this->fire_to_vw_content_plg( param1 = tab ).
Ann.: I my example, I had 3 views: VW_MAIN which embedds VW_SUB. VW_SUB has the tabs in it and VW_SUB embedds VW_CONTENT.

Create view and alter Session gets 0RA-01031

I can't create a view after using ALTER SESSION set current_schema without using an explicit schema. I get ORA-01031. Is this a known bug? Here are the details:
1. Log on as SYSTEM
2. ALTER SESSION set current_schema=FRED;
3. CREATE VIEW vFoo as select * from Foo; -- ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
4. CREATE VIEW FRED.vFoo as select * from Foo; -- this works!
I've read where some privileges need to be granted directly. In fact, if Fred grants select privilege on Foo to SYSTEM, the statement in #3 above works. However, something doesn't seem right because why does #4 succeed without the GRANT?
In case you're wondering why I don't just use #4 above, which does work, it's because I've got a script that will be run by customers to create tables, views, etc. in an arbitrary schema and the schema is associated with a user with limited permissions. Hence, the use of the ALTER SESSION.

See, You looged as SYSTEM (Scheme = SYSTEM)
Now you alter your session to another schema FRED.
Now if you want to access SCHEMA of FRED, You need to connect first.
SQL > connect user/password@host
Then
SQL > CREATE VIEW vFoo as select * from Foo;
View created.

In generic extration how to create view

HI
In se11 i try to create view using two table vbap and vbak .
vbak mandt vbap mandt
vbak vbeln vbap vbeln for join condion
and also i fill view field tab but the view is no cretated. It give error field name MANDT is not unique. please anyoone clar the error.
By
Rajan

Hi Rajan,
You cannot use one field twice in a View.
If you need the Field "MANDT" from both the tables, change the description as MANDT_VBAK & MANDT_VDAT in View Field column & select it from the respective tables in "Table column".
Hope it helps!

How to CREATE VIEW to merge two tables each of which has CLOB-typed column

I failed in creating a view to merge two tables that have CLOB-type column each.
The details are:
Database: Oracle 9i (9.2.0)
Two tables "test" and "test_bak", each of which has the following structure:
ID Number(10, 0)
DUMMY VARCHAR2(20)
DUMMYCLOB CLOB
The following operation fails:
create view dummyview (id, dummy, dummyclob) as
select id, dummy, dummyclob from test
union
select id, dummy, dummyclob from test_bak;
I was announced:
select test.id, test.dummy, test.dummyclob
ERROR in line 2:
ORA-00932: inconsistent data type: required - , but CLOB presented.
But if creating views from only ONE table with CLOB-type columns, or from two tables WITHOUT CLOB-typed columns, the creation will succeed. The following 1) and 2) will succeed, both:
1) one table, with CLOB-typed column
create view dummyview (id, dummy, dummyclob) as
select id, dummy, dummyclob from test;
2) two tables, without CLOB-typed columns
create view dummyview (id, dummy) as
select id, dummy from test
union
select id, dummy from test_bak;
I want to merge the two tables all, with complete columns, how to write the CREATE VIEW SQL statement?
many thanks in advance

Dong Wenyu,
No.
But you could do this:
SELECT source.*, nvl (tab1.clob_column, tab2.clob_column)
FROM your_table1 tab1, your_table2 tab2, (
SELECT primary_key, ...
FROM your_table1
UNION
SELECT primary_key, ...
FROM your_table2
) source
WHERE source.primary_key = tab1.id (+)
AND source.primary_key = tab2.id (+)
In other words, do the set operation (UNION (ALL)/INTERSECT/MINUS) on just the PK columns before pulling in the LOB columns.

Error while creating view

Hello,
I am trying to create view which is based on multiple source tables and I am receiving following error
Internal error: An expression services limit has been reached. Please look for potentially complex expressions in your query, and try to simplify them.
Can anyone know how to resolve this.
Thanks,

See MS Support for how to solve it:
