Default Column Name in Module

Hi all
In Designer 10.1.2.0.1 i have the following problem:
If i create a Table-Usage in a Module-Component i define the source table. After this i choose the columns on the "items"-tab. In the "available columns"-section the columns are displayed correctly. when i select them in the "Selected Items" there is a "2" at the end of the column name.
NAME is NAME2
DESCRIPTION is DESCRIPTION2
I could change the name on the next tab, but de default column name is always with a ending 2.
is there a preference to set or is it a bug?
Regards
Beat

IMHO there is no preference to control this behaviour and Oracle will call this a "feature". In this way the column names and the item names will have different names when referencing them in derivations etc.
Personally I also remove the '2' from every item...

Possible to set a default column value to an expression?

Hi,
Is it possible to set a default column name to an expression when creating a table?
For example, I wish to set the default value of a column to read from another table's column and do some arithmetic....is this possible?
Thanks.

Yes, you can, with trigger Before Insert for Each row
But be carefull, you can hit the mutating table problem...

Excel 2013 connect to a cube, and Power View concatenate the column name by default

Hi Guys,
Currently, we met a problem with excel services to connect to a cube, when we develope a Excel 2013 Powerview report, the data model column name is concatenate into terrible name by default. e.g. Dim TimeDate Date, Dim TimeTime HierachyYear -Month.
But when start up the data model with Powerpivot, everything gone well. We knew that it can be manual update the name as workaround, but we need to do it every time we create a new powerview with the data model.
Is that any other solution we can do with?
Please help.

Oracle 10g - Defining the column name in Non English

Hi Experts,
I have an exisitng application which is developed on Windows using ASP Technology and uses Oracle 10g 10.1.0.2.0.
The application is supported with an instance of Data Base within which multiple tablespaces are created for different clients. The application is developed in such a way that some of the tables arecreated dynamically and the columns are named using the data entered through the UI.
This application needs to be globalized now. The problem is, the column name entered through the UI can be in any language based on the client's settings and those values in turn will be used for naming the columns in the tables.
1) Can I have the column names to be named using non english characters in Oracle 10g DB? If so,
1.1) what should I do to configure the exisiting Oracle instance to support it?
1.2) To what level is that configuration possible, is it per DB instance level (or) can it be done at Tablespace level. I would like to configure each tablespace to host tables with columns defined with different languages, say for example, tablespace 1 will have tables with Japaenese column names and tablespace 2 will have tables with German column names?
2) What should I do to make my entire DB to support unicode data i.e., to accept any language strings. Currently all strings are declared as VarChar2, should I change all VarChar2 to NVarChar2 (or) is there a way to retain the VarChar2 as is and make some database wide setting?
Please note that I do not have an option of retaining the column in English as per the Business Requirement.

What is the order of Column Names in Sqlite query results?

I am writing an application using Adobe Air, Sqlite, and Javascript.
After writing the following select statement:
          SELECT field1, field 2, field 3, field 4 FROM TableA;
I would like to get the columnName/data combination from each row -- which I do successfully with a loop:
          var columnName="";
          for (columnName in selResults.data[i]) {
               output+=columnName + ":" + selResultsdata[i][columnName] + ";";
My issue is that the column names come out in a different order every time I run the query and never once have they come out in the desired order -- field 1, field 2, field 3, field 4. If I run the query in Firefox's Sqlite Manager, the columns come out in the "proper" order. When I run them in Adobe Air, the order will be the same if I run the query mulitple times without closing the app. If I make a change such as declaring the columnName variable with "" before the for column, or declare it as (var = columnName in selResults.data) , then the order changes. If I shut down my app and re-open after lunch and run query, it comes out in another order. At this time, I'm not interested in the order of the rows, just the order of the columns in each output row. I've even tried assiging an index to columnName which seems to just pick up a single letter of the columnName.
I'm in the process of changing my HTML presentation of the data to assign a precise columnName to an HTML table title, but I'm reluctant to let go of the above concept as I think my separation of HTML/presentation and Javascript would be better if I could use the solution described above.
So, does anybody know how to force the order of the columnNames in my output -- or what I'm doing to cause it to come out in a different order?
Jeane

Technically there isn't any "order" for the return columns. They aren't returned as an Array -- they're just properties on an Object instance (a "generic object"). The random order you're seeing is the behavior of the for..in loop iterating over the properties of the object. Unfortunately, with a for..in loop there is no guaranteed order for iterating over properties (and, as you've seen, it tends to vary wildly).
The only solution is to create your own list of the column names and sort it the way you want to, then use that to create your output. For example, use the for..in loop to loop over the properties, but rather than actually get the values, just dump the column names into an Array:
var columnName="";
var columns = [];
for (columnName in selResults.data[i]) {
    columns.push(columnName);
columns = columns.sort(); // just uses the default alphabetical sort -- you would customize this if desired
var j = 0;
for (j = 0; j < columns.length; j++) {
    columnName = columns[j];
    output+=columnName + ":" + selResultsdata[i][columnName] + ";";

Calculation Field to be mapped to different data object's column name in Oracle BAM 12c

Hi,
I am having a challenge to enable drill down to 2nd level report by passing calculation field as parameter.
As an alternative, I am thinking to point calculation field to another data object’s column name and generate report so that I would be able to pass that as parameter to drilling report view.
Is there any way to map calculation field to different Data object’s column name? Thanks in advance.

How to change recordset bahaviour to accept dynamic column names in the where clause

Hi
im using php-mysql and i make a recordset and i want to make the column names in the where clause to be dynamic like
"select id,name from mytable where $tablename-$myvar";
but when i do this my i break the recordset and it disappear
and when i use variables from advanced recordset it only dynamic for the value of the column not for the column name
and when i write the column name to dynamic as above by hand it truns a red exclamation mark on the server behaviour panel
so i think the only way is to change the recordset behaviour is it? if so How to make it accept dynamic column names?
thanks in advance.

As bregent has already explained to you, customizing the recordset code will result in Dreamweaver no longer recognizing the server behavior. This isn't a problem, but it does mean that you need to lay out your dynamic text with the Bindings panel before making any changes. Once you have changed the recordset code, the Bindings panel will no longer recognize the recordset fields.
Using a variable to choose a column name is quite simple, but you need to take some security measures to ensure that the value passed through the query string isn't attempting SQL injection. An effective way of doing this is to create an array of acceptable column names, and check that the value matches.
// create array of acceptable values
$valid = array('column_name1', 'column_name2', 'column_name3');
// if the query string contains an acceptable column name, use it
if (isset($_GET['colname']) && in_array($_GET['colname'], $valid)) {
$col = $GET['colname'];
} else {
// set a default value if the submitted one was invalid
$col = 'column_name1'
You can then use $col directly in the SQL query.

How to find column names in a table

Am learning the basics of SQL Plus.
Have entered the following query:
SELECT * FROM t_ebb_session;
This gives me the following output.
USER_ID SESSION_ID LAST_ACCE
However LAST_ACCE is not the full name of the column as I get 'Invalid column name when I use it in a select statement.
How do I display the full name?

By default, SQL*Plus will set the column display width of a character column to its size in the database, and the heading will be the column name in uppercase, truncated to fit that width if necessary. (There is a different rule for numeric columns.)
You can override this with the COLUMN command, e.g:
COLUMN some_column_name FORMAT a30 HEADING "Alternative Name"
Check out the SQL*Plus documentation for all the COLUMN options.

Pass column-name as a parameter to reports

Hello,
the code below calls a report. But now I want to sort the rows in the report. For example I have a text-item in my form-modul. If I type a column-name and press the button then the rows should be sorted in the report. Is it possible tp pass column-names as parameter to reports?
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object('STATIONSTOPOLOGIE');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'html');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_oracle-dev');
-- SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no pdeptno='||:dept.deptno);
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
LOOP
rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
END LOOP;
IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://oracle-dev:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_oracle-dev','_blank');
ELSE
message('Error when running report');
END IF;
END;

Hi,
the work has been done in reports. You can use a lexical parameter in reports to add a condition for sorting to the query like:
select .. from .. where ... &p_order.
Then add another parameter to the report (for example p_param). Fill p_param via your interface in forms (SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER, ....) with the column name. Then build a report trigger like:
if :p_param is null
then
:p_order:= null;
else
:p_order:= 'order by '||:p_param;
end if;
But have a look, that p_param can only get correct values.

JTable - Help with column names and rowselection

Hi,
Is there anyone that can help me. I have successfully been able to load a JTable from an MS access database using vectors. I am now trying to find out how to hardcode the column names into the JTable as a string.
Can anyone please also show me some code on how to be able update a value in a cell (from ''N'' to ''Y'') by double clicking on that row.
How can I make all the other columns non-editable.
Here is my code:
     private JTable getJTable() {
          Vector columnNames = new Vector();
Vector data = new Vector();
try
// Connect to the Database
String driver = "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver";
// String url = "jdbc:odbc:Teenergy"; // if using ODBC Data Source name
String url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=C:/Documents " +
          "and Settings/Administrator/My Documents/mdbTEST.mdb";
String userid = "";
String password = "";
Class.forName( driver );
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection( url, userid, password );
// Read data from a table
String sql = "select * from PurchaseOrderView";
Statement stmt = connection.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery( sql );
ResultSetMetaData md = rs.getMetaData();
int columns = md.getColumnCount();
// Get column names
for (int i = 1; i <= columns; i++)
columnNames.addElement( md.getColumnName(i) );
// Get row data
while (rs.next())
Vector row = new Vector(columns);
for (int i = 1; i <= columns; i++)
row.addElement( rs.getObject(i) );
data.addElement( row );
rs.close();
stmt.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println( e );
          if (jTable == null) {
               jTable = new JTable(data, columnNames);
               jTable.setAutoCreateColumnsFromModel(false);
               jTable.setAutoResizeMode(javax.swing.JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_NEXT_COLUMN);
               jTable.setShowHorizontalLines(false);
               jTable.setGridColor(java.awt.SystemColor.control);
               jTable.setRowSelectionAllowed(true);
               jTable.setSelectionMode(javax.swing.ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
               jTable.setShowGrid(true);
          return jTable;
     }

this method has a default behavior to supply exactly what you're seeing: column names consisting of the capitalized letters, "A", "B", "C".Thanks Pete, had seen that but never really thought about it... about 10 days ago somebody needed to obtain Excel column names, I'd offered a rigorous solution and now see it would have been shorter and simpler (if a little heavier) to extend DefaultTableModel and provide the two additional methods needed (getOffsetCol and getColIndex).
Not much of a difference in LOC but certainly more elegant ;-)

Please follow basic Netiquette and post the DDL we need to answer this. Follow industry and ANSI/ISO standards in your data. You should follow ISO-11179 rules for naming data elements. You should follow ISO-8601 rules for displaying temporal data. We need
to know the data types, keys and constraints on the table. Avoid dialect in favor of ANSI/ISO Standard SQL. And you need to read and download the PDF for:

>> I need to select from a dynamic column name and save the result in a variable, but seem to be having trouble with the values being fed to sp_executesql <<
This is so very, very wrong! A column is an attribute of an entity. The idea that you are so screwed up that you have no idea if you want
the shoe size, the phone number or something else at run time of this entity.
In Software Engineering we have a principle called cohesion that says a model should do one and only one task, have one and only one entry point, and one and only one exit point.
Hey, on a scale from 1 to 10, what color is your favorite letter of the alphabet? Yes, your mindset is that level of sillyity and absurdity.
Do you know that SQL is a declarative language? This family of languages does not use local variables!
Now think about “month_val” and what it means. A month is a temporal unit of measurement, so this is as silly as saying “liter_val” in your code. Why did you use “sp_” on a procedure? It has special meaning in T-SQL.
Think about how silly this is:
SET @month_val = 'Month' + CAST(@month_nbr AS VARCHAR(2));
We do not do display formatting in a query. This is a violation of at the tiered architecture principle. We have a presentation layer. But more than that, the INTERVAL temporal data type is a {year-month} and never just a month. This is fundamental.
We need to see the DDL so we can re-write this mess. Want to fix it or not?

Now we have a lot of views which select data from the tables, but I need to get the "Table Column Name" that is linked in the view.
If you are using SQL Server 2012/2014, then you can use
sys.dm_exec_describe_first_result_set (Transact-SQL) to gte the informations.

Crystal Report - NULL values mapped to Column names in reports

Hai,
I am using rows of data retrived from the SQL Server 2005 Express and sometimes the column names are NULL , I want to set a default value to this NULL value and set it as Data axes label / Group axes values, can some one please help me with this issue.
Thank you in advance.
Vijay

I resolved this issue myself, this can be set as other Data Labels, Group Label or Series Riser's properties too, left-click twice until the blank item is selected and then right click and select "Edit Axis Label" item and here it can edited with the new value(text).

How to read the column name of a table from sap system using C#?

Hi!!
I am using SAP .NET connector and creating a windows application.
Now I wanna read the column name when a table name is given....
Connection is done, but I don't know the code to read the column names alone...
Can anyone help me with the code??

fine!!
So if i give the table name, which the RFC_READ_TABLE function module have, will it run properly? or i wanna change all the codes in order to support RFC_READ_TABLE function module?
Because from the beginning I was using BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETLIST function, but my client requirement is to use ERP function module RFC_READ_TABLE, he didn't give any table name also..
This is my code: What I have to change in this???
ECCDestinationConfig ECCDestination = new ECCDestinationConfig();
            RfcDestinationManager.RegisterDestinationConfiguration(ECCDestination);
            RfcDestination rfcDest = null;
            rfcDest = RfcDestinationManager.GetDestination(a);
                RfcRepository repo = rfcDest.Repository;
                IRfcFunction customerList = repo.CreateFunction("BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETLIST");
                IRfcTable addressData = customerList.GetTable("AddressTable"));
                int j = addressData.Metadata.LineType.FieldCount;
                for (int i = 0; i < j; i++)
                    RfcElementMetadata metadata = addressData.GetElementMetadata(i);
