Calling a function which has a CLOB parameter via an anonymous block.

OK,
we are moving a lot of exports currently done by Crystal to just be done by stored procs.
So we have a load of existing, some extremely length SQL statements used for these exports.
IN the exports, we have meaningful column headings, so we have a 'lookup' file where all the column names are listed with the desired column name text listed against it.
So - to make our lives easier(i thought) , I have written a Oracle function to extract al;l of the column names as a list (see below).
It works fine except for when I am trying to pass in a SQL treatment that is longer than 4000 character.
What I want to be able to do is simply have an anonymous block that callls my function, I will be running this via SQL explorer.
Something like......
DECLARE
theSQL CLOB;
BEGFIN
theSQL := 'SELECT * FROM ORDERS WHERE 1=0';
SELECT GET_COLUNS_AS_LIST( theSQL, 0 ) FROM DUAL;
END;
However, when I run this I get the error................
PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT statement
06550. 00000 - "line %s, column %s:\n%s"
*Cause:    Usually a PL/SQL compilation error.
If I hard code the SQL like this, SELECT GET_COLUNS_AS_LIST( 'SELECT * FROM ORDERS WHERE 1=0', 0 ) FROM DUAL; all is well.
Also, I am going to need to be able to pass in SQL ststement longer that 4000 characters as weel so please bear that in mind.
I am not an Oracle guy, so I guess I am missing something fundamental - Please enlighten me with regards to this.
Any help extremely appreciated.

So I have ended up with this.
When I next get some time, I'd like to be able to strip out the table and simply output the results to an SQL Developer script window without having to go through the table.
Now this works - but if you see that I am doing something wrong - please point it out.

note: i will have this anonymous block code in a table. i should take the block from the table and execute it.
Please help me how to do it.

> we have a table driven approach for our project.
That does not make sense as a table driven approach implies a data driven approach.
Which means that the code is static/fixed and processes the data.
It is very complex to dynamically generate code to perform actions, instead of generating data to tell the code what actions to perform.
This is usually only done in the domains of artificial intelligence and experts systems - and one can debate just how effective that approach is...
Which raises the question as why you would choose such an approach in the first place?
Do you also realise that this dynamic code will likely trash the SQL Shared Pool due to a lack of bind variables? And trashing the Shared Pool that way is the #1 reason for poor performing applications using Oracle?

Specific Flash objects show as blank square -fixed and includes how-

Okay so this is basically driving me up the wall. I have a brand new computer with everything up to date but it just won't show some flash objects. They show up as a black object with the pages background colour usually. However if say I went to youtube their player works perfect. I checked around and this vid I am trying to watch and an interactive aquarium I used to use, works for everything else but 5 people I know. So here are two screen shots of my problem:
Aquarium Screen shot.
The aquarium page link is here.
Now what is weird about the aquarium is that though I cannot see the larger flash I can see my own signature size flash of it. Ah hard to explain just take a look here, if anyone replies to that thread I am the Thraxen and posted first at the very top of the page.
Same with on my profile on said site there is a mini aquarium which I can make larger and I can still see it.
You may say it is just that site but take a look below. I could keep listing more sites but it keeps going.
Video Screen shot.
The video page link is here.
Anyone have any idea why this is happening to me? Pleaseeee!
/UPDATED/
So basically all I had to do was go to the page where the flash was, for instance my Gaia aquarium and right click. I then clicked roughly in the middle I right click and got this: (click the image for the larger one)
Click settings.
Now do you see how it says how much storage there should be? Mine said "None"
So I just used the slider and changed it to this:
Once set to unlimited (You could limit it but to be honest who cares as long as it works) I pressed "Close", then refreshed the page and it worked!!!!

How to create a relationsship between a DB Bock and Non DB Block

Hi All,
I am working with oracle forms 10g.
I have created a Custom form. I have two block. One is a DB Block and another is control block(ie multi record blk).
I tried to create a master detail relationship between these two block.
Master block:LC_Master_BLK(DB Block).
Detail block: LC_Detail_blk(Non DB Block).
Form object navigator I click relation in Master Block and a pop up window opens and form there i select Detail block.
And i give the join condition like
LC_Master_BLK.PO_HEADER_ID=LC_Detail_blk.PO_HEADER_ID.
I have made po_header_id as primary key in my custom table,refred in my master block.
But it shows error as
FRM-15004: Error while parsing the join condtion.
Can any one tell me how to solve this.
Thanks & Regards
Srikkanth

Hi Srikkanth.M
I have two block. One is a DB Block and another is control block(ie multi record blk).this is what i call bad form design pls exchange the two blocks making ...
Master block:LC_Master_BLK(Non DB Block).
Detail block: LC_Detail_blk (DB Block).
Now to link the 2 blocks then define the join condition as follows:
:LC_Master_BLK.PO_HEADER_ID = :LC_Detail_blk.PO_HEADER_IDPls Keep in mind that the join condition specifies the relationship between items in 2 blocks db
or
one which is the master Non DB Block (to filter the display of data through user input to display the result output of data related in multi-records in the detail block.
That how u can works with the relation between two blocks as urs..
Hope this helps...

Rqmt to create a PG with lots of fixed and some variable text, not a report

Hi, I have a requirement where I have to create a custom page which has lots of long lines of text(fixed) in paragraphs, with in between some data which needs to be populated from database tables. It is not a report but a custom page that is needed. I am new to OA Framework, so I was having trouble identifying which region styles or items to use, and how to proceed with it. Could anyone please help me out.

Thank You so much for the valuable feedback.
My agency requires some reports to be generated at a certain interval, after a certain type of batch load. A few different types of reports will be generated and usually we have scripts which we run to generate the necessary tables and extract the reports from there. We retain the tables for verification purpose as it stores some valuable status of some customers and so on, which we will not be able to generate again easily. The table will have around 50,000 - 100,000 records averagely. Sometimes more.
I am automating the process now as per client's request.
So, I thought of using the same script to automate it in the web. For table name we usually changed them manually.
Now, when the user runs, he or she have to give them table name/ report name.
I thought of concatinating the sysdate and report name but what if there is a problem and the user runs it for a second time?
Unless I have a separate part of the coding to take care of this issue.
Please advice if there is an alternative.
Thank You Very Much.
Cheers!
NithyaSo why is it necessary to create a table just to create a report?
You really, really need to rethink this entire process from the beginning, not just try to shoehorn in something from a current, astoundingly bad, design.

HT204408 Internal FaceTime error occurred. How can I fix and run FaceTime on my MacBook running 10.6.8

How can I fix face to run on my MacBook running 10.6.8. The error is "internal face error occurred.

I was getting the same error, and I could not find the file to copy that others had mentioned. However, I found a fix that works for me. I did a "control + click" on the facetime icon in the dock, selected "options" then "remove from dock". Once it was gone, I opened "launchpad" opened Facetime from launchpad, then when the icon was in the dock I did another "control + click", "options" and then "keep in dock". Now I have no problem opening it. Hope this helps someone else.

I can no longer get Firefox to display when I click the tab. The toolbar shows me firefox is up and running but cannot get the page to expand.

This all happened after a windows update. It started when a pop-up I was wanting to see wouldn't come up but was showing in the toolbar below that it was up. I could click on the toolbar screen and it would shoot over to the right side out of view. I uninstalled Firefox and reinstalled and now I can't get the browser to do anything up idle in the toolbar!!

After this, you probably will be buying some access control software...
First, make a backup of your computer for safekeeping. To back up Firefox, see [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information].
Next, try starting Firefox in Firefox
[http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode]. Be careful not to "reset" anything permanently if you didn't back up.
Does that fix it? If not, try creating a new (blank) profile: [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
To move key settings like bookmarks from your damaged profile to the new profile, see: [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Recovering+important+data+from+an+old+profile Recovering important data from an old profile].
Hope this helps.

How compile and run a project or package in Unix environment?

I write an application of java package using Jdeveloper tool. The first statement in each program is "package packgename". How can I compile this project or package in Unix command line? If I compile each program in the package, then error msg will show when one program reference another program.

The first statement in each program is "package packagename".Then your java files must be in a directory called "packagename". Let's say this packagename directory is in your /source/java directory, then when you compiling, you need to do:
cd /source/java/packagename
javac -classpath /source/java OneOfYours.java
and it should then compile.

How Install and Run a second Copy of InDesign

I am running InDesign CS5.5 on my iMac (2.8 GHz Intel Core i7 running OSX 10.7.5) The software was installed by downloading from the Adobe Site.
I would like to run on a second computer - My Mac Air 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5 running OSX 10.8.5
I understand I can run a second copy if only run one version at a time.
How do I do this?
thx - dan

If you didn't back up the installer the first time, you can download it from Download Adobe CS5.5 Trials: Direct Links (no Assistant or Manager) | ProDesignTools. Bes ure to read and follow the instructions onthe page or it will not work.

How fix that Fireox url box ends in red X and prohibits access by hyperlink to other pages

Firefox frequently freezes and hyperlinks will not function. Why? How fix?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

How to re-run query with bind values

Hello,
I have a sql statement which I obtained from statspack report. After looking at explan plan, I created an idex. Now I want to re-run the query and exame the explan plan again and see if newly created index helped. But how to re-run the query when it contains bind variables? Thank you.

Have to define and exec them first (if you know the values; null otherwise, so if you can get values, you will have a better idea of what takes place).
