Fill hiden Item from a sql-query?

Hallo,
I have a hidden item and I know which value it should get.
I could query it. Is this a possible way? Does this work?
There are other item on this page (filled from another report) and they already have a value and now I wanna fill this other item with a query.
In this query I would use the other items.
I set the other items through a report, there I had a column link and there I could list which item gets which value. But with a column link I
can only fill 3 items but I have a fourth one. And with a second column link it does not work.
I am a bit out of ideas.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks and regards, Jade

Hi Jade,
In a link definition you have only 3 item/values pairs but that does not mean that you can not set more.
You can specify more than one item name in a setting - just separate them with commas. The same applies to the values.
Apex will still handle this properly - the only thing you'll notice is that, when you open the link definition again, you will now have a URL created instead of individual settings.
This is, in effect, what you do in branches.

  • How to set an Application Item from PL/SQL

    I am attempting to set an Application Item
    After login to my app, I want to retrieve a row from my SETTINGS table and populate some Application Items with the settings information so that I can
    display some of that settings information on every page.
    Just to start, I created one Application Item named F106_YEAR
    I then created a Shared Components Application Process which executes on New Session: After Authentication
    I created this process as an Anynomous PL/SQL block.
    declare
    aucyr varchar(4);
    begin
    select year into auctyr
    from settings;
    :F106_YEAR := aucyr;
    end;
    I've tried a couple of other Syntax tricks attempting to reference the Application Item F106_YEAR from within PL/SQL (like V('F106_YEAR') but nothing seems to be working.
    I'm sure that I am missing something simple. Can someone tell me how to set an Application Item from PL/SQL?
    Thanks in advance.

    I'm still doing something wrong because this is not working for me.
    I've tried both of the following versions as an Application Process set to run on New Session after Authentication:
    declare
    auction_year varchar(4);
    begin
    select year into auction_year
    from PBUUC.SETTINGS where rownum < 2;
    :F106_AUCTION_YEAR:=auction_year;
    end;
    and I also tried:
    declare
    auction_year varchar(4);
    begin
    select year into auction_year
    from PBUUC.SETTINGS where rownum < 2;
    APEX_UTIL.SET_SESSION_STATE (p_name, p_value);
    end;
    F106_YEAR is a global Item (shared components).
    The select statement works just fine in SQL*PLUS so I know that it is correct.
    If I run the debugger and log into the application, here is the output. Shouldn't I see my Application Process get called if it is set to run on New Session after Validation?

  • Last Result from Fulltext SQL Query Search Not Showing

    I am creating a custom search results page for MOSS 2007 (using inline .aspx code - don't ask) that uses Fulltext SQL Queries.  I get the results in a ResultTable (see code below) and then use a DataTable to write code to display it (I could have used
    a DataGrid, I know).
    The problem is that the last result is not showing. So, if it reports that there are 5 results, only 4 will show. I have verified that all 5 results do exist (using a slightly broadened query). If it reports 1 result, none exist in the DataTable that loads
    the result data from the ResultTable.
    FullTextSqlQuery query = new FullTextSqlQuery(site);
    query.ResultTypes = ResultType.RelevantResults;
    query.QueryText = qry;
    query.RowLimit = 50;
    query.StartRow = iPage;
    try
    ResultTableCollection results = query.Execute();
    ResultTable resultTable = results[ResultType.RelevantResults];
    DataTable table = new DataTable();
    table.Load(resultTable, LoadOption.OverwriteChanges);
    int n = resultTable.TotalRows;
    The variable "qry" is a valid SQL Query with the relevant clauses.
    I am using a foreach loop to go through "table" (a DataTable), and so I do not think that I have a "one-off error".
    Any suggestions would be most welcome.

    So in results you have all items but when you are loading it into table (type DataTable) you are loosing one last record.
    1) First you check what data you are getting in resultTable - as you are specifying RelevantResult
    2) Check last index of data in ResultTable collection and try to find out the last index ResultTable, or try to find last index of data in result table
    DataTable.Load method accepts parm of type IDataReader and IDatareader, there are cases it looses records if not read properly..check below links

  • Why some columns are not read into Power Pivot when reading data from a SQL query

    I have this SQL query that I want to use to read data to PowerPivot from:
    SELECT Score.FieldCount as fieldcount, Score.Record.GetAt(0) as predicted_gender, Score.Record.GetAt(1) as probability_of_gender,  Score.Record.GetAt(2)
    as probability_of_m,

    ) Score
    After I click 'Finish' in "Table Import Wizard", I can only get 1 column (FieldCount) in Power Pivot window. Why don't I get the other 4 columns? If I save the result to a table I do get all columns but my goal is to dynamically present the result
    so that's not an option. Can anyone shed some light?

  • Parse SQL: How to extract column names, table names from a SQL query

    Hi all,
    I have a requirement wherein a SQL query will be given in a text file.
    The text file has to be read (probably using text_io package), the SQL query needs to be parsed and the column names, table names and where clauses have to be extracted and inserted into separate tables.
    Is there a way to do it using PL/SQL ?
    Is there a PL/SQL script available to parse and extract column names, table names etc ?
    Pls help.
    Regards,
    Sam

    I think I jumped to conclusion too early saying it is completely possible and straight forward. But after reading through your post for one more time I realised you are not interested only in the column_names, also the table_names and the predicates .
    >
    SQL query needs to be parsed and the column names
    >
    The above is possible and straight forward using the dbms_sql package.
    I am pasting the same information as I did in the other forum.
    Check this link and search for Example 8 and .
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/d_sql.htm#sthref6136

    >

    >
    Now this is the tricky bit. You can extract the list of tables by getting the sql_id from v$sql and joining it with v$sql_plan. But sometimes you may not get all the results because the optimizer may choose to refine your query (check this link)
    http://optimizermagic.blogspot.com/2008/06/why-are-some-of-tables-in-my-query.html
    and you can get the predicate information from the same table v$sql_plan but I will leave that area for you to do some R&D.

  • How to delete last user session from backend SQL query?

    Sometimes user session gets closed between some work by any reason.
    When next time that user logs to P6, he gets some error or particular functionaly dosen't work for that user or system hangs.
    In that case if i decided to clear last session history of that user from database, how to write SQL query?
    I don't want to delete all user sessions from table USESSION and USESSAUD, i simply want to delete last user session of particular user (E.g XYZ).

    I am quoting this from MOS Doc Id "Why would multiple session records be present in the User Sessions screen in P6 Web, and why might some of them have different IP addresses? (Doc ID 1600172.1)"
    Multiple sessions show up for users since different sections of P6 Web have their own sessions associated with them. If a user is authorized to use multiple areas of the software they will have multiple sessions each time they log in. Additionally, if users are closing their browsers before logging out of P6 Web Access you might see some past sessions still appearing in the list. These will eventually be cleared out by background jobs, however you can also reset the sessions in the software by clicking the "Reset User" link (Administer > User Sessions > Manage User Sessions), or by choosing the "Reset All Users" link (Administer > User Sessions > Manage User Sessions) to do this for all past sessions.
    Multiple IP addresses for sessions can happen when a user logs in from different machines. For example, a person may login at their desk, but then go to a colleagues workstation to discuss a project, and log in from there. Doing so will leave them with multiple IP addresses in the session records.
    Hope this helps

  • Returning operation, table and column from a sql query

    Hi,
    I am working on Oracle 10g and i have to do achieve something like this.
    i have to create procedure or functions which will accept a SQL query and will return following :
    1).  Operation like 'SELECT', 'INSERT', 'UPDATE', 'DELETE' etc.
    2).  Column names
    3).  Table involved.
    One way to achieve this would be through hard parsing of string which might be time consuming. So do we have any in-built oracle package or function for the same job ?
    Regards,
    Vikas Kumar

    Check for DBMS_SQL package and DESCRIBE_COLUMNS procedure in that package.
    You might need a combination of this package and Hard parsing of the input string.
    For operation you can trim any space and brackets using TRIM function and then you can extrcat first 6 characters using SUBSTR for Operation.
    I have not worked or used DBMS_SQL so wont be able to help you much on this.

  • Chart not getting columns from the SQL Query with InlineTransform(xsl)

    Hi All,
    I am using MII 12.0 . I tried to use the mii standard xsl for converting rows into columns by  Inline Transform in a SQL Query.
    while executing the Query it is giving me the correct output but i tried to load the same Query in a IChart there it is not showing me the available columns that i can able to see in simple executiion and chart is also not plotting it keeps on loading.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi LinoVaz,
    Some things to try for testing purposes -
    1. Don't do any Data Mapping of the query columns
    2. If a SQL Query, you may need to change the Server Scaling to use Global AutoScale.
    I found that when I mapped the inline-transformed query into a bar chart display template, and hit the Refresh button, only the first column name show in the Column Names area.  If I mapped it, I got only that column.  If I didn't map any columns, I got them all.
    Let me know if you find similar results.  I think this is likely a bug, so you may consider using a Business Logic Transaction and an XacuteQuery to accomplish the same result.
