Help in inserting rows into a table

I have a table called acct_fact,
I need to insert rows in the table using a script but the problem is there's a column called seq_nbr which has random seq nbr of 14character length like 'ZWX98MGD9MVAD6J','ZWX98MG67RVAD6J' etc.,
While inserting rows I need to generate such seq_nbr for those columns and insert rows into the table, can I use any such mechanism in my insert query to insert such random nbr's while inserting rows into a table.
If so please suggest me

Hi Peter,
Thankyou for the quick reply:)
can you suggest me how to implement it here in my script snippet:
while read var_acct_nbr
do
echo "update acct_attr set acct_attr_exp_dt ='$ExpDate' where Acct_Attr_Value_Text='15' and acct_attr_exp_dt is null and person_id='LDCarrBillAgrm' and acct_nbr='$var_acct_nbr' ;" >> ./$DirectoryName/SQLQuery_$TimeStamp.sql
echo "insert into acct_fact values ('$var_acct_nbr','$ExpDate','$ExpTime','*seq_nbr*','N','ProjTereza','Remoção de acordo d; data de expiração: $ExpDate',null,'1','LDE',null);" >> ./$DirectoryName/SQLQuery_$TimeStamp.sql
done < ./$DirectoryName/ExpireAccts_$TimeStamp.LOG
the script takes each acct_nbr nbr form a input file and fires an insert statement.
The one in bold is the column where such sequence need to be inserted.can you help me in implementing the way you suggested in my script i.e., insert statement
Thanks in Advance:)

Insert row into database table via dynamic form -

I have developed a portlet via Portal. I used a dynamic page. I replaced the default "<ORACLE>select * from scott.emp</ORACLE>" text to call a package procedure that uses HTP.P to render the web page. My goal is to show all rows in a table and allow edits to any row, and also add a checkbox on each row to allow the user to mark for delete. I am successfully using a FOR loop and showing all of the data in a grid. My problem - How do I update and delete the data? I have a submit button with nothing behind it currently. I would ideally like to use pl/sql code to do the updates and/or deletes as marked on the page by the user, but I'm not sure how to hook the submit button to calling a procedure to execute the updates/deletes.
Any help would be appreciated -
Thanks -
Kent

Hi Patrick - Thanks for your response! I have browsed your page quickly - very informative and I will look in more detail. My form design looks as below (using a simple example with emp id and emp name columns) - perhaps this will have to change, but I wanted the user to be able to insert using html fields id_add and name_add, then update (or mark for deletion) any of the existing rows (they are rendered with for loop in pl/sql - eg, id_1/name_1, id_2/name_2, etc for each row in the table). I was hoping the submit action would call a pl/sql that would look at all rows, and then act if an update or delete were required. This makes it difficult to use parms, I believe - I may be able to change the design to show an "update row" below the current "insert row" so that, as in your example, when the user highlights a row, it populates in the update area where changes can be made, and an update button used to effect the changes to a single row at a time.
Thanks again, I appreciate your input!
Kent

Unable to insert rows into the table

My insert statement below is not correct, when i try run, its encoutering error "table or view does not exist".
Basically what i am doing here is collecting the table name in FOR variable which stores the table name in this variable. This variable, i am using as table. I know this is not the proper way, please let me how can insert the complete table rows with the following code.
DROP TABLE TEMP;
CREATE TABLE TEMP AS SELECT * FROM Comp WHERE 1=2;
DECLARE
I INTEGER DEFAULT 1;
S VARCHAR2(50);
begin
for C in (select TABLE_NAME INTO S from USER_TABLES where TABLE_NAME like 'CABLE%' and TABLE_NAME NOT like '%OLD' and Num_ROWS > 0 order by TABLE_NAME) loop
INSERT INTO TEMP SELECT * FROM c.TABLE_NAME;
dbms_output.put_line(c.table_name);
end loop;
end;
The above insert statement is not correct. How can i write proper way.
Thanks.

Insert rows into a table in particular order

When i fired a query as
insert into table1 select * from table2 order by req_id .
It is not inserting into table1 as ordered by req_id.Please suggest

ORDER is irrelevant when it comes to storage of data unless its Index organized table. In a Heap Organized table the order in which data is stored is irrelevant.
Here is a small example to show the difference between IOT and HOT.

I want a table like this.
I want to insert Data column value based on Id and Name Columns
If Id = N and Name = 105.1.1 then Data value should be insert as http://www.example.com/New/105.1.1
If Id = U and Name = 105.1.2 then Data value should be insert as http://www.example.com/Used/105.1.2
If Id = S and Name = 105.1.3 then Data value should be insert as http://www.example.com/Sold/105.1.3
Can you please help us to write query to insert above Data Column values based on Id and Name Columns.

Error while inserting rows in a table

Hi,
We have recently migrated from 9i to 10g. We have a scheduled job out our DB which first deletes all the rows from a table and then inserts them back by selecting rows from 5 tables. This table has a composite primary key based on 6 columns in it. In 9i, when i try to insert rows into the table after deleting all the rows from it, I am able to insert the data successfully . However, in 10g, when i try doing the same operation, it fails with the ORA error:
ORA-00001: unique constraint violated
The same query which works perfectly in 9i fails in 10g
If anybody has some ideas on how to resolve the same, kindly let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I was finally able to resolve the reason behind that error message and found it even more weird. The error was because I was using the substr function for extracting the characters 1-4 from a column which is 5 characters long. When i specify the query as:
select substr(column1, 1, 4)) from table1;
only the characters 1-3 are retrieved. Now if i change the query to select substr(column1, 1, 5)) from table1, in that case also only 3 characters are retrieved although i have specified the substr to start from 1 and read till 5 characters. Also, when i run the query:
select length(substr(column1, 1, 4)) from table1 or select length(substr(column1, 1, 5)) from table1
I get the answer as 3.
However, the most amazing part is that the query is working perfectly in 9i and is retrieving the data correctly i.e. from substr 1-4.
Can anyone suggest what the problem could be?
Thanks

Adding 2 more rows to a select without inserting rows to base table

hello all,
i have a below simple select statement which is querying a table.
select * from STUDY_SCHED_INTERVAL_TEMP
where STUDY_KEY = 1063;
but here is the situations. As you can see its returning 7 rows. But i need to add
2 more rows..with everything else default value or what exist... except adding 2 more rows.
i cannot insert into base table. I want my end results to increment by 2 days in
measurement_date_Taken to 01-apr-09....so basically measurement_date_taken should
end at study_end_Date...
IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE WITHOUT INSERTING ROWS INTO THE TABLE AND JUST PLAYIHY AROUND WITH
THE SELECT STATEMENT??
sorry if this is confusing...i am on 10.2.0.3

Well, I'm not sure if this query looks as good as my lawn, but seems to work anyway ;)
I've used the 'simplified version', but the principle should work for your table to, S2K.
As Frank already pointed out (and I stumbled upon it while clunging): you just select your already existing rows and union them with the 'missing records', you calculate the number of days you're 'missing' based on the study_end_date:

Read a file and insert rows into table

Hi,
i would like to know how read a file (expl.txt) with the utl_file package and after insert each row into the table (dataID).
ie :
file /tmp/expl.txt is containing :
id1 id2 describe
2 3 test1
6 5 test2
4 7 test3
and
table dataID (
id1 number,
id2 number,
describe varchar2(100));
Thanks you very much.

Hello,
You can use the TEXT_IO package.
Perform an over-all search (right upper corner) on TEXT_IO, and in the results you will find a manual on how to use the package.
Hope this will help you.

Is this with the Travel database or another database?
If it's another database then make sure your columns
allow nulls. To check this in the Server Navigator, expand
your DataSource down to the column.
Select the column and view the Is Nullable property
in the Property Sheet
If still no luck, check out a tutorial, like Performing Inserts, ...

What is the best practice for inserting (unique) rows into a table containing key columns constraint where source may contain duplicate (already existing) rows?

My final data table contains a two key columns unique key constraint. I insert data into this table from a daily capture table (which also contains the two columns that make up the key in the final data table but are not constrained
(not unique) in the daily capture table). I don't want to insert rows from daily capture which already exists in final data table (based on the two key columns). Currently, what I do is to select * into a #temp table from the join
of daily capture and final data tables on these two key columns. Then I delete the rows in the daily capture table which match the #temp table. Then I insert the remaining rows from daily capture into the final data table.
Would it be possible to simplify this process by using an Instead Of trigger in the final table and just insert directly from the daily capture table? How would this look?
What is the best practice for inserting unique (new) rows and ignoring duplicate rows (rows that already exist in both the daily capture and final data tables) in my particular operation?

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:
https://www.simple-talk.com/books/sql-books/119-sql-code-smells/
>> My final data table contains a two key columns unique key constraint. [unh? one two-column key or two one column keys? Sure wish you posted DDL] I insert data into this table from a daily capture table (which also contains the two columns that make
up the key in the final data table but are not constrained (not unique) in the daily capture table). <<
Then the "capture table" is not a table at all! Remember the fist day of your RDBMS class? A table has to have a key. You need to fix this error. What ETL tool do you use?
>> I don't want to insert rows from daily capture which already exists in final data table (based on the two key columns). <<
MERGE statement; Google it. And do not use temp tables.

Inserting multiples rows into a table using function or procedure..

How do i insert multiples rows into a table using function or procedure?
Please provide me query..

Use FORALL bulk insert statement...
eg:
procedure generate_test_data as
type cl_itab is table of integer index by pls_integer;
v_cl_itab cl_itab;
type cl_vtab is table of varchar2(25) index by pls_integer;
v_cl_vtab cl_vtab;
type cl_dtab is table of date index by pls_integer;
v_cl_dtab cl_dtab;
begin
for i in 1.. 100 loop
          v_cl_itab(i):= dbms_random.value(1,1000);
          v_cl_vtab (i):=dbms_random.string('a',20);
          v_cl_dtab (i):=to_date(trunc(dbms_random.value(2453737, 2454101)),'j');
     end loop;
     forall i in v_cl_itab.first .. v_cl_itab.last
          execute immediate 'insert into test_order values( :n, :str , :dt ) ' using v_cl_itab(i), v_cl_vtab (i), v_cl_dtab (i);
     commit;

How could I insert the deleted row into another table within a trigger?

Hi,
How could I insert the deleted row into another table within a trigger? The destination table has the same columns as the source table. Since the statements are in the trigger, it is not allowed to query the source table named 'test'. Thanks! The trigger is as follows, uncompleted:
CREATE TRIGGER delete_trigger
AFTER DELETE
ON test
FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
-- How could I insert the deleted row into another table
END delete_trigger;

Hi,
I'm not sure what's wrong there.
I read the oracle docs about ANALYZE and ALL_TAB_COLUMNS, and did the following:
ANALYZE TABLE my_tab VALIDATE STRUCTURE; //went ok.
SELECT column_name
FROM all_tab_columns
WHERE table_name = 'my_tab'; //but no rows selected?
This topic might not be what this thread should be about. Here I posted a new thread:
How to get colum names of the newly created table?
Thanks.
