Help with SELECT - selecting range of numbers

Hi,
I need a help with SELECT statement. I want to select Dates starting from today and ending 30 days back. So the result would be like:
TRUNC(SYSDATE)
TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 1
TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 2
TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 3
TRUNC(SYSDATE) - 30I was thinking to simply select truncated SYSDATE in first column, and in second column numbers 0, 1, 2, ... 30. Then I would simply do a difference first column - second column. But how to select such sequence of numbers? I don't want to select each number (date) in separate select statement and then unioning them.
Does anybody have an idea?
Thanks for help, Dan

Problem with select range for a character type field. Kindly Help! Urgent!

Hi Experts,
    I have to write a report to pull data from a table BUT000 for a selected range of BPEXT field values in selection screen.
    In the table BUT000, the BPEXT field is type char. Now what is happening is that if the user gives a range in selection screen from 1000 to 1010 the query pulls all the records where teh forst character starts from 1.
For example if the table has
    BPEXT
    1
    10
    100
    101
    1000
    1001
    1002
    1005
    1010
    20
    200
    2000
Then my query pulls
   BPEXT
    101
    1000
    1001
    1002
    1005
    1010
   Instead it should pull only
   BPEXT
    1000
    1001
    1002
    1005
    1010
    My guess this is because the BPEXT field is of CHAR type instead of numeric.
    What shall i do to solve this problem? Kindly help please!
Thanks
Gopal

Need help with select that month range with flexible first date

Hello everyone,
I am trying to create a selection of month range (will be in a WITH clause) for a report to display monthly data. But the first month start date can be any date. (Not necessarily the first date of the month)
Examples:
Report input parameters:
Start Date: 08/10/12
End Month: Dec 2012
I was trying to build a with select that will list
Month_Start, Month_End
08/10/12, 31/10/12
01/11/12, 30/11/12
01/12/12, 31/12/12
OR
Month_Start, Next_Month
08/10/12, 01/11/12
01/11/12, 01/12/12
01/12/12, 01/01/13
End month is optional, so if no value the select will list only
08/10/12, 01/11/12

Thanks a lot in advance,

Hi,
Here's one way:
WITH   params      AS
     SELECT     TO_DATE (:p50_start_date, 'DD/MM/YYYY')     AS start_date
     ,     TO_DATE (:p50_end_month, 'DD/MM/YYYY')     AS end_date
     FROM     dual
SELECT     GREATEST ( start_date
           , ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
                        , LEVEL - 1
          )               AS month_start
,     LEAST     ( end_date
          , ADD_MONTHS ( TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
                      , LEVEL
                    ) - 1
          )               AS month_end
FROM    params
CONNECT BY     LEVEL     <= 1 + MONTHS_BETWEEN ( end_date
                                  , TRUNC (start_date, 'MONTH')
;:p50_end_month doesn't have to be the last day of the month; any day will work.
If you want to generate a Counter Table containing the integers 1 througn x in SQL, you could say
SELECT ROWNUM AS n
FROM    all_objects
WHERE   ROWNUM <= x
;but, starting in Oracle 9.1, it's much faster to say
SELECT LEVEL   AS n
FROM    dual    -- or any table containing exactly 1 row
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= x
;Also, x can be greater than the number of rows in all_objects.

Help with selecting chuncks of data from a table

Hi all,
I need help with a query that should do the following.
I have a table with vessel messages, and I need to get the last "NumMsgs" messages from a group of vessels.
The problem I have is that if I order the table by Vessel_ID, MessageDate DESC, I can´t do ROWNUM < NumMsgs (<-- Then number of messages to be shown is a user parameter)
I know it should be something like:
select * from (
select *
from Messages m
where TRIM(m.V_ID) = '11597' /* I was trying for a single vessel atm */
order by m.V_ID, m.MESSAGEDATE desc
where rownum < :NumMsgs
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance !

Hi,
What about :
select *
from (
select m.*, row_number() (order by m.V_ID, m.MESSAGEDATE desc) rn
from Messages m
where TRIM(m.V_ID) = '11597' /* I was trying for a single vessel atm */
where rn < :NumMsgsAnyway, I don't very well understand your problem, your query work fine, see for example :
SQL> ed
Wrote file afiedt.buf
1 select object_name, object_id

Help with Select Decode Round

Hi, If anyone could help me with this. I need to round all these numbers in the DECODE but without repeating ROUND.
This way works:
SELECT title "Title", category "Category",retail "Current Price",
DECODE(category,
'COMPUTER',(ROUND(retail * 1.1,2)),
'FITNESS', (ROUND(retail * 1.15,2)),
'SELF HELP', (ROUND(retail * 1.25,2)),
(ROUND(retail * 1.03,2)))"Revised Price"
FROM books
ORDER BY category, title;
But I need something more like this:
SELECT title "Title", category "Category",retail "Current Price",
DECODE (ROUND((category,
'COMPUTER',retail * 1.1,
'FITNESS', retail * 1.15,
'SELF HELP', retail * 1.25,
retail * 1.03)"Revised Price"),2)
FROM books
ORDER BY category, title;
so that ROUND is not repeated more than once..they all need to be rounded to two decimal places.
any help would be great. Thanks

your second is close. You need to round the decode statement. like this:
SELECT title "Title", category "Category",retail "Current Price",
       ROUND(DECODE(category, 'COMPUTER',retail * 1.1,
                              'FITNESS', retail * 1.15,
                              'SELF HELP', retail * 1.25,
                              retail * 1.03),2) "Revised Price"
FROM books
ORDER BY category, title;Note that the alias (I assume) revised Proce needs to go outside of both the decode and the round.

Need help with select within select - daterange

I use Crystal Reports v12.3.0.601 - I am a beginner.
Problem:
TABLE: ACCOUNTBILLFEE
Columns are
FOLDERRSN

There are over 500,000 rows/ records...
And I need to report the FOLDERRSN which has at least one {ACCOUNTBILLFEE.STAMPDATE} in DateTime

Please help -
The critical part for me, is to display payments not within the date range in 'select expert' statement.
Currenlty my report reflects only payments for FOLDERRSN, where {ACCOUNTBILLFEE.STAMPDATE} in DateTime
(2014, 05, 01, 00, 00, 01) to DateTime (2014, 05, 31, 23, 59, 59) and not other payments outside the date range specified.
Thank you for your time.

Hi Abilash,
This worked !!!
My brother helped me with it here....ofcourse you have intiated the intial idea.
It worked when i used the following SQL at 'Add Command'
Select * from DATABASE_NAME.ACCOUNTBILLFEE A
Where A.FOLDERSN = any ( select B.FOLDERSN from DATABASE_NAME.ACCOUNTBILLFEE B
where B.STAMPDATE >= TO_DATE('20140501', 'YYYYMMDD')
AND B.STAMPDATE <= TO_DATE('20140531', 'YYYYMMDD'))
Excellent support - Thank you so much for your immediate attention and response.
I know, how hard it is to understand someones requirement and suggest solutions.
You are the best and most helpful I have ever come across in my life.
Thank you for your kind heart and extending help to me.

Help with select function

Well guys, I have a problem here and I didn't find any solutions
So maybe someone of you, can help me!
My problem is:
I have 2 numbers (100 and -200) and I have to plot the greater value.
The problem is for me the signal of -(minus) doesn't means nothing....
For the program I'm making, the -200 is greater than 100
So I tryed put bouth as absolute value, but when I have the "answer" only appears the "200"
and I need it appears -200
So I thought about something like that:
I use a select function and maybe do something like that:
So I have to make something at True or False value at S to make this work!
If true I receive 100, if is false I receive -200
Thanks!

I dont know why is in this section. I posted it on LabVIEW part!
Well Dennis I make it like that:
But now I have a problem
I do the same calc for 3 differents variables like A, B, C
and after that I have to calc which value is the "greater"
But my problem is, If I have the values "-350 300 -400"
the greater will be "300" but for me the "minus" don't mean anything
so I need the greater value is "400"
For all positive values, its works fine!
I compare A and B, after that the greater is compared with C and have a result!
but When I have negative values and positive values... I got that problem...
and When I have only negative values I have a problem too.
"-300 -400 -500" for me the greater value have to be "-500" but labview shows "-300"
because -300 is greater than -500 in algebriac.
And If I use absolute values I will always have a positive value... but I need to know if the value is negative or positive
Anyone, can help me with that?
Thanks

Help with selecting files from script menu or drag and drop

I found this scale images applescript online. It works great when a bunch of files is dragged on top of the script but I would like it to also work when a folder or group of files is selected in the Finder and I activate it from the scripts menu.
I can't get my on run statement to work. I'm not really an Applescript guy so I'm really just asking if someone can help finish what I started in this on run.

When items are dragged to your script's icon they are passed in to the on open handler, so this triggers:
on open some_items
and the dragged items are passed in as some_items
In contrast, when you double-click on the script, or invoke it via the Script menu, this runs the on run handler:
on run
tell application "Finder"
activate
folder_path to quoted form of (POSIX path of (the selection as alias))
set theItems to every file of folder_path
end tell
end run
However, there's nothing in this block that actually does anything with the selection - you (dangerously) assume that the selection is a folder (you really should check first), and just set theItems to every file in that folder then you exit.
So to do what you want you'll need to edit your run handler to filter the selection and pass files over to the code that does the hard work.
You already have the basis for this - your rescaleandsave() handler, so it's just a matter of identifying the files in the selection and passing those over to that handler:
on run
tell application "Finder"
set cur_selection to (get selection) -- get the selection
repeat with each_item in cur_selection -- iterate through
if class of each_item is folder then -- do we have a folder?
set theFiles to every file of each_item -- if so, get its contents
repeat with each_file in theFiles -- iterate through them
my rescaleand_save(eachfile) -- and process them
end repeat
else if class of each_item is document file then -- do we have a file selected?
my rescaleand_save(eachitem) -- if so, process it
end if
end repeat
end tell
end run
So the idea here is that the run handler gets the selection and works through the (potentially-numerous) items. For each selected item it checks whether its a folder or a file, if its a folder it gets all the files within and passes them to the rescaleandsave handler.
Note that this is not recursive - it won't catch files within folders within folders - since it only looks at the top level of selected folders, but it wouldn't be hard to rework the script to handle that if that's what you need.

Help with select statement

Hello,
My table looks similar to this, I have removed a few columns:
table1:
Forecast_id Forecast_name Freeze Enabled
100 Q12009 N Y
101 Q22009 N Y
table2:
forecast_id parameter_name parameter_value
100 StartDate 01/01/2009
100 EndDate 03/31/2009
100 Growth % 20
100 Retailer Walmart
101 StartDate 04/01/2009
101 EndDate 06/30/2009
101 Growth % 20
101 Retailer Walmart
What i need to do is
select from table 1, forecast name & freeze
where in table2 parameter = Retailer, Parameter value = Walmart and
Start Date = 01/01/2009 and End Date = 03/31/2009
here is my query is there a easy way this can be done. I have used decode function in the past for similar situation for counting and grouping.
SELECT i.FORECAST_ID,
i.FORECAST_NAME,
i.FREEZE_FLAG
FROM (
SELECT x.FORECAST_ID,
x.FORECAST_NAME,
x.FREEZE_FLAG
FROM (
SELECT A.FORECAST_ID,
A.FORECAST_NAME,
A.FREEZE_FLAG
FROM GC_FORECAST A, GC_FORECAST_PARAMETERS B
WHERE A.FORECAST_ID = B.FORECAST_ID
AND B.PARAMETER_NAME = 'Retailer'
AND B.PARAMETER_VALUE = 'Walmart'
) x, GC_FORECAST_PARAMETERS y
WHERE x.FORECAST_ID = y.FORECAST_ID
AND y.PARAMETER_NAME = 'StartDate'
AND y.PARAMETER_VALUE = '01/01/2009'
) i, GC_FORECAST_PARAMETERS j
WHERE i.FORECAST_ID = j.FORECAST_ID
AND j.PARAMETER_NAME = 'EndDate'
AND j.PARAMETER_VALUE = '03/31/2009';
Thank you for your time and help.

Help with select list item and dynamics action

G'Day Apex Gurus,
I having problems trying to achieve to trigger the help window of a select item automatically. A help window is triggered when the select item label is clicked but my client would like to be triguered automatically as soon as the user click to see the options in the select list.
I think that I should be able to do it with dynamic actions but I can not get it to work.
I know when someone click on the label of the select list item trigger this JavaScript
javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
So I want to trigger the javascript also when the user click of the select list item and pull down the options and for that I think that Dynamic actions is the way to go but I can't get it right.
This is what I a doing:
I created a Dynamic option as follow:
Name : test
Sequence: 30
Even: Click
Selection type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_RATING <- a selection list item
Condtion: - No Condition -
True Actions
Sequence: 10
Action : Execute JavaScript Code
Fire when event result is :True
Fire on page load: ticked
Code: javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
I appreciate any one who can tell me what i am doing wrong here or provide a solution to my problem of achieving to trigger the help window of a select item automatically.
Kind regards
Carlos

Hi Carlos,
I set up a test case in exactly the same way and it worked fine for me. I created a page item called P1_DA_DEMO and added some static select list values then added some help text. The settings I used are below, I suggest you try again but also make sure you have no other Javascript errors on the page. Use a tool like firebug to check.
Name : Dynamic Action Demo
Sequence: 10
Even: Click
Selection type: Item(s)
Item(s): P1_DA_DEMO <- a selection list item
Condtion: - No Condition -
True Actions
Sequence: 10
Action : Execute JavaScript Code
Fire when event result is :True
Fire on page load: Not Ticked
Code: javascript:popupFieldHelp('277938589795252851','1545903379570909')
Event Scope set a s Bind.
Thanks
Paul

Help with SELECT to get a total from a database field? ASP/VBScript

I have two tables, Events and Orders. The Events table:
eventID
title
ticketsavailable
The Orders table:
orderID
customerID
eventID
numberofticketspurchased
I want to be able to calculate the total number of tickets
purchased by all
customers.
I'd managed to vind out the total number of orders, for any
one event, by
doing the following:
(SELECT COUNT(*) FROM dbo.orders WHERE dbo.events.eventID =
dbo.orders.eventID) AS numberoforders
...I wondered if there was something similar, to give me the
total number of
tickets purchased? Thanks.
Regards
Nathon

Hi Nathan, I think its the combination of the JOIN and the
GROUP BY
which is preventing you from getting exactly what you want.
If you look
up JOINS you will find one called an OUTER JOIN, that will
help, but due
to the GROUP BY it will fail, so I think for the moment your
best bet is
2 recordsets.
