Delete Table

I am trying to delete a table and I get an error
VBO-4562 Table cannot be dropped. ORA-00604: error occured at
recursive SQL level 1
ORA-04052 error occured when looking up remote object

Deepak:
You probably have one or more tables with Foreign keys which
reference the table you are trying to delete. If that is the
case, you first have to delete those tables. Then you can delete
the table you are trying to delete.
Hope this helps.

Thanks
Prasanta De

Hi Steve,
Thanks for your reply but I could not find any example from the documentation for update-request or delete-request. I need your help in this regards.
1. I have emp table with many rows and the simple structure like this
DEPTNO NUMBER(2)
EMPNO NUMBER(2)
EMPNAME VARCHAR2(20)
EMPSAL NUMBER(8,2)
Key is defined on deptno and empno
2. I have a xml file like this
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<DEPTNO>1</DEPTNO>
<EMPNO>11</EMPNO>
<EMPSAL>1111.11</EMPSAL>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">
<DEPTNO>1</DEPTNO>
<EMPNO>12</EMPNO>
<EMPSAL>2222.22</EMPSAL>
</ROW>
<ROW num="3">
<DEPTNO>1</DEPTNO>
<EMPNO>13</EMPNO>
<EMPSAL>3333.33</EMPSAL>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
3. I want that xsql servlet will read this xml file and update EMPSAL column depending upon the value of DEPTNO and EMPNO from xml file.
Please let me know how I should use update-request in xsql page.
Thanks

DELETE TABLE STATEMENT WITHIN A LOOP IN A PROCEDURE

i am using delete table tablename statement inside a cursor for loop which is inside a procedure
it is telling error in that delete statement
can't i put it inside the loop

you can only run DDL commands like create, drop etc in pl/sql by using "execute immediate" or dbms_sql package. when you use either of the two mentioned , it will work anywhere in PL/SQL , yes even in a loop. Note that the commit on DDL are implicit , so take care of your transactions if any ..

After reverse engineering i have still the old deleted tables

hi ,
i dropped a table from database schema and go to ODI and run reverse engineering on my model which linked to the database schema through my logical schema, but the deleted table still exist in my model ??? i wish this dropped table automaticly deleted from my model..

Hi,
Deletion actual table will not reflect while reverse engineer.
The Meta data has been taken into ODI. It has become an object of ODI.
So you have to directly delete the data store to remove it from ODI.
Hope it helps.

Ramez S. Swires

Hey N. Gasparotto
Thank you for replying me. in the first thread you told me
( Without any flashback availability, you haven't any other choice than PITR (Point In Time Recovery)).
i already checked i found that flashback is working and archive log are working and both are working normally and working before dropping the table and also i cant restore the table which is dropped.
So what can i do?
Do you have any other idea?

GEt deleted table -Oracle 9i

How to get deleted table back in 9i?
Does 9i has Recycle Bin like 10g?

A drop table is not a recoverable transaction. A delete is.
You can rollback a delete. Or you can commit a delete. Let's say you commit a delete and afterwards realise that it was a mistake. The undo records for that delete transaction can be mined from the archive logs using LogMiner. You can thus reconstruct the undo from the logs and insert the deleted rows back into the database.
A drop table has an implicit commit. And it not recoverable, meaning that it cannot be rolled back. There is no undo records created for a drop table. Thus you cannot mine the archive logs to find the dropped rows.
Enter the recyclebin feature to provide a means to "un-drop" a table. Instead of actually deleting the table, it is simply renamed. The table now looks like it is gone. The data looks like it is lost. However, the table and its data still exist.
This therefore allows the dropped table to be "un-dropped" - almost like rolling back the the DROP TABLE statement.

Deleted Tables in Java Dictionary

Hi all,
I have deleted a table within the Java Dictionary. The documentation tells that it is not possible to reuse the name of a deleted table.
But unfortunately i have to reuse this name. So my question is:
Is there any possiblity to undelete the table or to reuse the name?
Thanks in advance....

Hi Florian,
the creation of Java dictionary projects is checked against the name server. That is the reason why you cannot re-use the name just after the deletion of the table, as it could be possible that this table is already transported and re-used in another project.
If you really know that this table name is not used somewhere else, you can remove the name reservation. This has to be done in the SLD that acts as the Name Reservation Server (in most cases it's the SLD that you also use for creating your SCs).
There, go to the section "Name Reservation" and have a look at the reserved names of type "DB table". Delete the desired entry.
Then you only have to restart the NWDS, as this is chaching the info from the name server.
On the DB, there is no issue re-using the table. But you have to keep in mind that this will result in a drop of the existing table with all the data before it is recreated.
Best regards,
Timo

Delete tables (cleanly)

hi guys,
How do we (1) delete tables (2) delete table entries
and together deleting the other entries with corresponding foreign key?
Thanks
Message was edited by:
        TY Ng

Hi ,
U can delete entries from the table using the following syntax.
DELETE FROM <TABLENAME>.
Variants:
1. DELETE FROM dbtab WHERE cond.
DELETE FROM (dbtabname) WHERE cond.
2. DELETE dbtab.
DELETE *dbtab.
DELETE (dbtabname) ...
3. DELETE dbtab FROM TABLE itab.
DELETE (dbtabname) FROM TABLE itab.
4. DELETE dbtab VERSION vers.
DELETE *dbtab VERSION vers.
Effect
Deletes lines from a database table (see Relational Databases ). You can specify the name of the database table either in the program itself with DELETE FROM dbtab ... or at runtime as the contents of the field dbtabname with DELETE FROM (dbtabname) .... In both cases, the database table must be known to the ABAP Dictionary. Only data from the current client is usually deleted. You can delete data using a view only if the view refers to a single table and was created in the ABAP Dictionary with the maintenance status "No restriction".
DELETE belongs to the Open SQL command set.
Notes
The DELETE statement does not perform authorization checks. You must program these yourself.
The final (irrevocable) deletion of lines with the DELETE statement is not performed until after a database commit (see Logical Unit of Work (LUW)). Prior to this, you can reverse any database update with a database rollback (see Programming Transactions).
You cannot rely exclusively on the locking mechanism of the database system to synchronize several users trying to access the same dataset at the same time. You should therefore use the SAP locking mechanism.
Variant 1
DELETE FROM dbtab WHERE cond.
DELETE FROM (dbtabname) WHERE cond.
Addition:
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
Deletes lines in a database table that satisfy the WHERE clause cond. With this variant, specification of a WHERE condition is obligatory .
When the statement has been executed, the system field SY-DBCNT contains the number of deleted lines.
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
At least one line was deleted.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
No lines were deleted, since no line was selected.
Example
Delete all bookings for the Lufthansa flight 0400 on 02.28.1995 (in the current client):
TABLES SBOOK.
DELETE FROM SBOOK WHERE CARRID = 'LH'       AND
                        CONNID = '0400'     AND
                        FLDATE = '19950228'.
Note
To delete all the lines in a table, you must specify a WHERE condition that is true for all lines. You can achieve this with
... WHERE f IN itab
If the internal table itab is empty, such a condition would select all lines.
Addition
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
Switches off automatic client handling. This allows you to delete data across all clients in the case of client-specific tables. The client field is then treated like a normal table field, for which you can formulate suitable conditions in the WHERE clause.
You must specify the addition CLIENT SPECIFIED immediately after the name of the database table.
Variant 2
DELETE dbtab.
DELETE *dbtab.
DELETE (dbtabname) ...
Additions:
1. ... FROM wa
2. ... CLIENT SPECIFIED
See Short forms not allowed and * work areas not allowed.
Effect
These are SAP-specific short forms used to delete one line of a database table. If the name of the database table is specified in the program, the primary key of the line to be deleted is taken from the specified work area - dbtab or *dbtab. If the name of the database table is not determined until runtime ( DELETE (dbtabname) ...), the addition ... FROM wa is obligatory .
When the statement has been executed, the system field SY-DBCNT contains the number of deleted lines (0 or 1).
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
The line was deleted.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
No lines could be deleted, since no line exists with the primary key specified.
Example
Delete the booking with the booking number 3 for the Lufthansa flight 0400 on 28.02.1995 (in the current client):
TABLES SBOOK.
SBOOK-CARRID = 'LH'.
SBOOK-CONNID = '0400'.
SBOOK-FLDATE = '19950228'.
SBOOK-BOOKID = '00000003'.
DELETE SBOOK.
Addition 1
... FROM wa
Effect
Takes the primary key for the line to be deleted not from the table work area dbtab, but from the explicitly specified work area wa. Here, the key values from left to right are taken from wa according to the structure of the primary key in the table work area dbtab (see TABLES). The structure of wa is not taken into account. Therefore, the work area wa must be at least as wide (see DATA) as the primary key in the table work area dbtab and the alignment of the work area wa must correspond to the alignment of the primary key in the table work area. Otherwise, you get a runtime error.
Note
If a work area is not explicitly specified, the values for the line to be deleted are taken from the table work area dbtab, even if the statement appears in a subroutine (see FORM) or function module (see FUNCTION) where the table work area is stored in a formal parameter or a local variable of the same name.
Addition 2
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
As with variant 1.
Variant 3
DELETE dbtab FROM TABLE itab.
DELETE (dbtabname) FROM TABLE itab.
Addition:
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
Mass deletion: Deletes all database table lines for which the internal table itab contains values for the primary key fields. The lines of the internal table itab must satisfy the same condition as the work area wa in addition 1 to variant 2.
The system field SY-DBCNT contains the number of deleted lines, i.e. the number of lines of the internal table itab for whose key values there were lines in the database table dbtab.
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
All lines from itab could be used to delete lines from dbtab.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
For at least one line of the internal table in the database table, there was no line with the same primary key. All found lines are deleted.
Note
If the internal table itab is empty, SY-SUBRC and SY-DBCNT are set to 0.
Addition
... CLIENT SPECIFIED
Effect
As with variant 1.
Variant 4
DELETE dbtab VERSION vers.
DELETE *dbtab VERSION vers.
This variant is not allowed in an ABAP Objects context. See VERSION addition not allowed.
Note
This variant is now obsolete, since variants 1 - 3 allow you to specify the database table name dynamically.
Effect
Deletes a line in a database table, the name of which is taken from the field vers at runtime. The database table must be known to the ABAP Dictionary and its name must conform to the following naming convention: It must begin with 'T' and can consist of four additional characters. The field vers must contain the table name without a leading 'T'. Only lines in the current client are deleted. The line to be deleted is taken from the statically specified table work area dbtab or *dbtab.
The return code is set as follows:
SY-SUBRC = 0:
The line was deleted.
SY-SUBRC = 4:
No lines could be deleted because no line existed with the specified primary key.

Could you please check the relationship and the underlying records between foreign key table and primary key table? We must insert Data into the parent table which containing the Primary Key, before attempting to insert data into the child table containing

Delete table in SQL command

Hello,
As part of my report I populate a table then reference it in several following subreports.
The issue I'm having is that I need to clear all the data from my table after using it to allow the report to run again (and not get multiple results)
To do this I have tried to add a sub report at the very end (and start) of my report with the SQL command truncate table <tablename> or delete <tablename> or delete <tablename> where 1 = 1.
When I try truncate I get an error saying that I don't have permission (despite granting it but hey...) which is why I switched to delete, this runs fine but the table doesn't get deleted...
Any thoughts as to why this isn't working/how I can clear my table? I have thought of setting up a separate scheduled job to delete the table contents however I do also need to run the report several times with different parameters so this isn't an ideal solution.
I have tried adding a select after my delete statement as I thought if it had something to display on the report it would have to look at it but this didn't make any difference.
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks
Chris

Thanks for that!
I have had a go at this and I can see how it will work although I have limited access on the Crystal userid I have so will need to have the SP created as part of our nightly refresh script I think.
Is there no way of getting crystal to run my delete statement otherwise?
Thanks again
Chris

How to track , who has deleted table entry

Hi Experts,
Is there any way so that i can know that who has manually deleted few entries(data records) from my table,actually my table has "Display maintenance allowed" property set.
Can we track it anyway that when and who has deleted that table record.
Regards,
Abhishek

Hi Abhishek,
Actually the changes made for an entry into table will have two effects.
Changes at the data element level and another at the entire db table level all these changes will have an entry only if the change documentation is activated.
Table logging concept wherein SAP records all insertions, deletions, and changes in tables
