Help With Geodetic Rectangular Query Please

I'm new to spatial so I appreciate your help.
I have a 3D geodetic coordinate system defined that is index in 2D (lon & lat).
I want to do a query that returns all points (lat, lon, alt) within the rectangle described by the query.
I read in the "Oracle Spatial User's Guide" that this rectangle must have 5 points (since I'm using geodetic).
I have not found a good example of how to format the query. Can you help with an example?

here is an example which assume a wgs-84 coordinate system (srid=8307). Note that altitude will be ignored.
select col1,col2,etc
from geom_table
where sdo_relate(geom,mdsys.sdo_geometry(2003,8307,NULL,
mdsys.sdo_elem_info_array(1,1003,1),
mdsys.sdo_ordinate_array(-70.05,40.8, -69.05,40.8, -69.05,41.2, -70.05,41.2, -70.05,40.8)),
'mask=anyinteract querytype=window') = 'TRUE';

Help with report script query please

Hi,
I'm trying to write a report script with a slight calculation and would really appreciate some help.
Ideally I want to create a report where I only get the Account and Value. I select all my members but I need a calculation on the Entity dimension. Here's what i am trying to achieve:
(All selected members for all Entities + All selected members for all Entities in group RIA-IFRS REPORTING ADJS. ) Yes I'm duplicating the members of group RI-IFRS REPORTING ADJS.
So account 100 for all Entities = 50
account 100 for all Entities in RI-IFRS REPORTING ADJS. = 25
I want to display account 100 grouped as 75 without showing a line for each entity.
This is what I have so far but it doesn't work right:
ROWREPEAT
SUPCOLHEADING
SUPCOMMAS
SUPHEADING
SUPBRACKETS
SUPEMPTYROWS
TABDELIMIT
MISSINGTEXT "#mi"
DECIMAL 2
NOINDENTGEN
<PAGE ( Years, Version, Currency, Scenario, InterCompany, "Entity", "Cost Center","Set of Books","Reporting")
"FY10" "Current" "Currency" "Actual" "InterCompany" "Entity" "Cost Center" "AB_CON_USD" "Reporting"
<ROW ("Account")
     <LINK(<DESCENDANTS("Total Balance Sheet Accounts","Lev0,Account"))
{ CALCULATE ROW "Entity" = "Entity" + "RI-IFRS REPORTING ADJS."})
     <COL (Period)
     "Dec"
     !

For the benefit of anyone else looking for this answer, I figured it out.
//To do this it's better to create 2 columns:
<COLUMN (Period)
          Q4
WWL "RIA-IFRS REPORTING ADJS."
//Then add the 2 columns up:
CALCULATE COLUMN "Q4 Gaap" = 1 - 2
//And order the column how you want
ORDER 0,3,1,2
Hope this help someone out.

Help with this SQL Query please

How many garments has each dressmaker constructed? You should give the number of garments and the name, house number and post code of each dressmaker.
tables; dressmaker contains D_NO, D_NAME, D_HOUSE_NO, D_POST_CODE
garment contains STYLE_NO, DESCRIPTION, LABOUR_COST, NOTIONS
quantities contains STYLE_Q, SIZE_Q, QUANTITY
The question title is multitableJOINS
I believe i have to use (garment.style_no=quantities.style_q) if it will work, im new to oracle & SQL so all the help i get i am grateful for, thankyou.

Not to be a jerk, but this forum is really not intended for homework. Show a little effort, and try it out. Post some results, and maybe someone will help you out. Getting others to do your homework will not help you when you get out of school.

Need some help with the Select query.

Need some help with the Select query.
I had created a Z table with the following fields :
ZADS :
MANDT
VKORG
ABGRU.
I had written a select query as below :
select single vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
IT_REJ is a Work area:
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
        VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
        ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
       END OF IT_REJ.
This is causing performance issue. They are asking me to include the where condition for this select query.
What should be my select query here?
Please suggest....
Any suggestion will be apprecaiated!

Developer

Hello Everybody!
Thank you for all your response!
I had changes this work area into Internal table and changed the select query. PLease let me know if this causes any performance issues?
I had created a Z table with the following fields :
ZADS :
MANDT
VKORG
ABGRU.
I had written a select query as below :
I had removed the select single and insted of using the Structure it_rej, I had changed it into Internal table
select vkorg abgru from ZADS into it_rej.
Earlier :
IT_REJ is a Work area:
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ,
VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
END OF IT_REJ.
Now :
DATA : BEGIN OF IT_REJ occurs 0,
VKORG TYPE VBAK-VKORG,
ABGRU TYPE VBAP-ABGRU,
END OF IT_REJ.
I guess this will fix the issue correct?
PLease suggest!

Help with an SQL Query on the Logger

We are running UCCE 8.5(3) and need help with an SQL query. When I run the below I would also like to see skill group information(name preferably)? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
select * from dbo.t_Termination_Call_Detail where DateTime between '10-11-2012 00:00:00:00' and

David, thanks for replying. Unfortunitly I don't know enough about SQL to put that into a query and have it return data. Would you be able to give an example on what the query would look like?

Please help with some solution.

OK: the third parameter of the SUBSTR function indicates the (maximum) length of the returnd string.
Therefore SUBSTR("EES_ENERGY_MASTER"."ICD_CODE",1,2) could possibly be '68' , but never '68-gyn'.
'68-gyn' is just 4 characters too long.

Need some help with the colour profile please. Urgent! Thanks

Dear all, I need help with the colour profile of my photoshop CS6.
I've taken a photo with my Canon DSLR. When I opened the raw with ACDSee, the colour looks perfectly ok.
So I go ahead and open in photoshop. I did nothing to the photo. It still looks ok
Then I'm prompt the Embedded Profile Mismatch error. I go ahead and choose Discard the embedded profile option
And the colour started to get messed up.
And the output is a total diasater
Put the above photo side by side with the raw, the red has became crimson!!
So I tried the other option, Use the embedded profile
The whole picture turns yellowish in Photoshop's interface
And the output is just the same as the third option.
Could someone please guide me how to fix this? Thank you.

I'm prompt the Embedded Profile Mismatch error. I go ahead and choose Discard the embedded profile option
always use the embedded profile when opening tagged images in Photoshop - at that point Photoshop will convert the source colors over to your monitor space correctly
if your colors are wrong at that point either your monitor profile is off, or your source colors are not what you think they are - if other apps are displaying correctly you most likely have either a defective monitor profile or source profile issues
windows calibrate link:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Calibrate-your-display
for Photoshop to work properly, i recall you want to have "use my settings for this device" checked in Color Management> Device tab
you may want to download the PDI reference image to check your monitor and print workflows
and complete five easy steps to profile enlightenment in Photoshop
with your settings, monitor profile and source profiles sorted out it should be pretty easy to pinpoint the problem...

Help with Inner Join query in SQL

Hope someone can help with this, as this is quite an involved project for me, and I'm just about there with it.
My table structure is :
table_packages
packageID
package
packageDetails
etc
table_destinations
destinationID
destination
destinationDetails
etc
table_packagedestinations
packageID
destinationID
..so nothing that complicated.
So the idea is that I can have a package details page which shows the details of the package, along any destinations linked to that package via the packagedestinations table.
So this is the last part really - to get the page to display the destinations, but I'm missing something along the way....
This is the PHP from the header, including my INNER JOIN query....
PHP Code:
<?php
$ParampackageID_WADApackages = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['packageID'])) {
$ParampackageID_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['packageID'] : addslashes($_GET['packageID']);
$ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages = "-1";
if (isset($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages'])) {
$ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages'] : addslashes($_SESSION['WADA_Insert_packages']);
$ParampackageID2_WADApackages = "-1";
if (isset($_GET['packageID'])) {
$ParampackageID2_WADApackages = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? $_GET['packageID'] : addslashes($_GET['packageID']);
mysql_select_db($database_connPackages, $connPackages);
$query_WADApackages = sprintf("SELECT packageID, package, costperpax, duration, baselocation, category, dateadded, agerange, hotel, educational_tours, field_trips, corporate_outings, plant_visits, budget_package, rollingtours, teambuilding, description, offer FROM packages WHERE packageID = %s OR ( -1= %s AND packageID= %s)", GetSQLValueString($ParampackageID_WADApackages, "int"),GetSQLValueString($ParampackageID2_WADApackages, "int"),GetSQLValueString($ParamSessionpackageID_WADApackages, "int"));
$WADApackages = mysql_query($query_WADApackages, $connPackages) or die(mysql_error());
$row_WADApackages = mysql_fetch_assoc($WADApackages);
$totalRows_WADApackages = mysql_num_rows($WADApackages);
$colname_educationalDestinations = "1";
if (isset($_GET['PackageID'])) {
$colname_educationalDestinations = (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) ? packageID : addslashes(packageID);
mysql_select_db($database_connPackages, $connPackages);
$query_educationalDestinations = sprintf("SELECT * FROM destinations INNER JOIN (packages INNER JOIN packagedestinations ON packages.packageID = packagedestinations.packageID) ON destinations.destinationID = packagedestinations.destinationID WHERE packages.packageID = %s ORDER BY destination ASC", GetSQLValueString($colname_educationalDestinations, "int"));
$educationalDestinations = mysql_query($query_educationalDestinations, $connPackages) or die(mysql_error());
$row_educationalDestinations = mysql_fetch_assoc($educationalDestinations);
$totalRows_educationalDestinations = mysql_num_rows($educationalDestinations);
?>
And where I'm trying to display the destinations themselves, I have :
<table>
        <tr>
                 <td>Destinations :</td>
            </tr>
           <?php do { ?>
        <tr>
             <td><?php echo $row_educationalDestinations['destination']; ?></td>
        </tr>
        <?php } while ($row_educationalDestinations = mysql_fetch_assoc($educationalDestinations)); ?>
</table>
If anyone could have a quick look and help me out that would be much appreciated - not sure if its my SQL at the top, or the PHP in the page, but either way it would be good to get it working.
Thanks.

First off, you need to get the database tables so that there is a relationship between them.
In fact, if there is a one to one relationship, then it may be better to store all of your information in one table such as
table_packages
packageID
package
packageDetails
destination
destinationDetails
etc
If there is a one to many relationship, then the following would be true
packages
packageID
package
packageDetails
etc
destinations
destinationID
packageID
destination
destinationDetails
etc
The above assumes that there are many destinations to one package with the relationship coloured orange.
Once you have the above correct you can apply your query as follows
SELECT *
FROM packages
INNER JOIN destinations
ON packages.packageID = destinations.packageID
WHERE packages.packageID = %s
ORDER BY destination ASC
The above query will show all packages with relevant destinations

Need help with LikeFilter for querying the keyset instead of value

Hi,
I'm looking for help with the LikeFilter.
I need to query the cache to get all entries with key starting with a particular string.
I could see samples using LikeFilter for querying the values in the cache but not the keyset.
Can someone help?
E.g:
Cache Entries:
abc123 - value1
abc234 - value2
bcd123 - value3
I want to get all entries with key starting with 'abc'.
thanks,
rama.

NJ, thanks for the quick reply.
I tried something similar (as below) but this code gives me 'java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/tangosol/util/ValueExtractor'.
KeyExtractor extractor = new KeyExtractor("getKey");
Filter filter = new LikeFilter(extractor, id+":%",'-',false);
-rama.

Need help with threads?.. please check my approach!!

Hello frnds,
I am trying to write a program.. who monitors my external tool.. please check my way of doing it.. as whenever i write programs having thread.. i end up goosy.. :(
first let me tell.. what I want from program.. I have to start an external tool.. on separate thread.. (as it takes some time).. then it takes some arguments(3 arguments).. from file.. so i read the file.. and have to run tool.. continously.. until there are arguments left.. in file.. or.. user has stopped it by pressing STOP button..
I have to put a marker in file too.. so that.. if program started again.. file is read from marker postion.. !!
Hope I make clear.. what am trying to do!!
My approach is like..
1. Have two buttons.. START and STOP on Frame..
START--> pressed
2. check marker("$" sign.. placed in beginning of file during start).. on file..
     read File from marker.. got 3 arg.. pass it to tool.. and run it.. (on separate thread).. put marker.. (for next reading)
     Step 2.. continously..
3. STOP--> pressed
     until last thread.. stops.. keep running the tool.. and when last thread stops.. stop reading any more arguments..
Question is:
1. Should i read file again and again.. ?.. or read it once after "$" sign.. store data in array.. and once stopped pressed.. read file again.. and put marker ("$" sign) at last read line..
2. how should i know when my thread has stopped.. so I start tool again??.. am totally confused.. !!
please modify my approach.. if u find anything odd..
Thanks a lot in advance

Hello,
I have no experience with threads or with having more than run "program" in a single java file. All my java files have the same structure. This master.java looks something like this:
---master.java---------------------------------------------------
import java.sql.*;
import...
public class Master {
public static void main(String args []) throws SQLException, IOException {
//create connection pool here
while (true) { // start loop here (each loop takes about five minutes)
// set values of variables
// select a slave process to run (from a list of slave programs)
execute selected slave program
// check for loop exit value
} // end while loop
System.out.println("Program Complete");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Error: " + e);
} finally {
if (rSet1 != null)
try { rSet1.close(); } catch( SQLException ignore ) { /* ignored */ }
connection.close();
-------end master.java--------------------------------------------------------
This master.java program will run continuously for days or weeks, each time through the loop starting another slave process which runs for five minutes to up to an hour, which means there may be ten to twenty of these slave processes running simultaneously.
I believe threads is the best way to do this, but I don't know where to locate these slave programs: either inside the master.java program or separate slave.java files? I will need help with either method.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Help with a PowerPivot query

Hi,
I've got a server audit log in PowerPivot (114,000 rows) which I provide some basic reporting from (PowerPivot is not my specialist subject so go easy). What I now need to perform a Distinct filter, but can't get the logic right. Basically the log
as two bits of information, 1) is the source of the job and 2) if it was a success or failure. What I need to do is to find all of the Source items that have never completed sucessfully. Any ideas on what formula is best to use, or
do I need to split in to multiple sheets and create a table relationship?
Source,Status
======,======
Source1,Fail
Source1,Fail
Source1,Success
Source2,Fail
Source3,Fail
Source3,Success
So in the above example, I would only expect the filter to show me Source2
Thanks
Alex

Hi Alex,
using Power Query instead, it would work like this:
Once you've pushed your table to PQ, add a column "helper" with value=1.
Then pivot on "Status", taking "helper"-column into "values column"
(hope translation is understandable, as I'm using localized Version & translation via "Quick info" isn't working in the PQ menu)
Then filter on column "Success" = blank.

I need help with a SELECT query - help!

Hello, I need help with a select statement.
I have a table with 2 fields as shown below
Name | Type
John | 1
John | 2
John | 3
Paul | 1
Paul | 2
Paul | 3
Mark | 1
Mark | 2
I need a query that returns everything where the name has type 1 or 2 but not type 3. So in the example above the qery should bring back all the "Mark" records.
Thanks,
Ian

Or, if the types are sequential from 1 upwards you could simply do:-
SQL> create table t as
2 select 'John' as name, 1 as type from dual union
3 select 'John',2 from dual union
4 select 'John',3 from dual union
5 select 'Paul',1 from dual union
6 select 'Paul',2 from dual union
7 select 'Paul',3 from dual union
8 select 'Paul',4 from dual union
9 select 'Mark',1 from dual union
10 select 'Mark',2 from dual;
Table created.
SQL> select name
2 from t
3 group by name
4 having count(*) <= 2;
NAME
Mark
SQL>Or another alternative if they aren't sequential:
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 select name from (
2    select name, max(type) t
3    from t
4    group by name
5    )
6* where t < 3
SQL> /
NAME
Mark

It's quite hard to tune a query without seeing the table structure and available indices as well as relationship between each other but I'll try.
In your sql which you've given the table alias AD, you have this filter criteria
              AND    FIELD_NAME IN (
                     SELECT FIELD_NAME
                     FROM   APPLICATION_FIELDS
                     WHERE FIELD_TYPE IN ('Checkbox','Radio','Select','SelectM', 'RadioHoriz','RadioPara')
                     ) </br>
My question is, is FIELD_NAME a column in the APPLICATION_DATA table? If it is, try moving this clause outside of the current sub-query it is in, i.e. one more level up. It looks like you put them inside the wrong level.
I would also try converting this <COL> IN <SUB-QUERY> to a join, if that wouldn't affect the no. of rows returned. I can't tell for sure since I dont know the relationship between your tables.
It looks to me like you're doing this
SELECT <col list>
FROM   ( SELECT                                         -- LEVEL 1
         FROM   APPLICATION_DATA AD
         WHERE AD.APPLICAITON_ID IN (                  -- LEVEL 2
                SELECT
                FROM   APPLICATIONS A
                WHERE A.JOB_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND    A.ACCOUNT_ID IN (
                       <SUBQUERY>
                AND FIELDNAME IN ( -- SHOULD BE INSIDE LEVEL1
<SUBQUERY>
       ) AD,
       ( SELECT ....
       ) FD
WHERE ....
