Hi all--reg insert statement

hi all ,
i have a z table which consisits of 13 fields. i have to insert field from 4 internal tables. but the fields in z table is is not in order as that of internal tables.
when i try insert , it is showing error,,,, is there any option to insert into corresponding fields,,,,,,,
regards
karthi

Hi,
if the field names are same you can use the MOVE-CORRESPONDING, but instead of MOVE-CORRESPONDING, you can use the MOVE statment ..
Here is the example:
Read First table
ZTABLE-FIELD3 = ITAB1-field3 .
ZTABLE-FIELD4 = ITAB1-field4 .
Read second internal table
ZTABLE-FIELD2 = ITAB2-field2 .
ZTABLE-FIELD5 = ITAB2-field5 .
Read Third internal table
ZTABLE-FIELD1 = ITAB3-field1 .
ZTABLE-FIELD6 = ITAB3-field6 .
INSERT ZTABLE.

I have the above proc inserting data based on parameters where in @InsertCase is used for case wise execution.
I have written the whole proc with exception handling using try catch block.
I have just added one insert statement here for 1 case now I need to add further insert cases
INSERT INTO TAB4
                A,B,C

I will be using following to insert further insert statements

Using 1million insert statement to create a table

Dear Expert;
Lets say someone sent you about 2 million insert statements and you want to use them to insert into a table or create a new table...How do you go about doing so...
because I tried just highlighting all the insert statement and executing them, however that didnt work in pl/sql developer, it was crashing everytime I did so
The other way might be to create a loop for them and inserting about 10,000 at a time...but is there a faster way to do it...
All help is appreciated it..

because I tried just highlighting all the insert statement and executing them, however that didnt work in pl/sql developer, it was crashing everytime I did soDo it in SQL*PLUS. It can handle such large files.
And let it run at night so that other users are not influenced that much by your session.
You might want to add very few commits somewhere in between. However in case something breaks you then need to know which insert was still executed and which one one.

Insert statement does not insert all records from a partitioned table

Hi
I need to insert records in to a table from a partitioned table.I set up a job and to my surprise i found that the insert statement is not inserting all the records on the partitioned table.
for example when i am using select statement on to a partitioned table
it gives me 400 records but when i insert it gives me only 100 records.
can anyone help in this matter.

VLD-1119: Unable to generate Multi-table Insert statement for some or all t

Hi All -
I have a map in OWB 10.2.0.4 which is ending with following error: -
VLD-1119: Unable to generate Multi-table Insert statement for some or all targets.*
Multi-table insert statement cannot be generated for some or all of the targets due to upstream graphs of those targets are not identical on "active operators" such as "join".*
The map is created with following logic in mind. Let me know if you need more info. Any directions are highly appreciated and many thanks for your inputs in advance: -
I have two source tables say T1 and T2. There are full outer joined in a joiner and output of this joined is passed to an expression to evaluate values of columns based on
business logic i.e. If T1 is available than take T1.C1 else take T2.C1 so on.
A flag is also evaluated in the expression because these intermediate results needs to be joined to third source table say T3 with different condition.
Based on value taken a flag is being set in the expression which is used in a splitter to get results in three intermediate tables based on flag value evaluated earlier.
These three intermediate tables are all truncate insert and these are unioned to fill a final target table.
Visually it is something like this: -
T1 -- T3 -- JOINER1
| -->Join1 (FULL OUTER) --> Expression -->SPLITTER -- JOINER2 UNION --> Target Table
| JOINER3
T2 --
Please suggest.

I verified that their is a limitation with the splitter operator which will not let you generate a multi split having more than 999 columns in all.
I had to use two separate splitters to achieve what I was trying to do.
So the situation is now: -
Siource -> Split -> Split 1 -> Insert into table -> Union1---------Final tableA
Siource -> Split -> Split 2 -> Insert into table -> Union1

Urgent help needed... PL/SQL Insert statement

Hi...
I need some urgent help on this project. I have a 2 column table with values that need to be inserted into another existing table which has a sequence.
This is the 2 column table:
FUND YEAR
29587 05
29587 07
Existing table:
Name Null? Type
LIST_ID NOT NULL NUMBER(6) -- This is a sequence
WEB_USER_ID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(10)
RESOURCE_TYPE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(8)
LIST_TYPE NOT NULL VARCHAR2(10)
LIST_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(50)
LIST_CODE_1 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(6) -- FUND from table above
LIST_CODE_2 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(6) -- YEAR from table above
LIST_CODE_3 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(6)
LAST_UPDATED_DT NOT NULL DATE
LAST_UPDATED_BY NOT NULL VARCHAR2(10)
LIST_CODE_4 NOT NULL VARCHAR2(20)
The columns from table 1 (FUND, YEAR) correspond to columns (LIST_CODE_1, LIST_CODE_2) in table 2. The column LIST_ID is a sequence. I can put in sysdate for LAST_UPDATED_DT and my initials SN for LAST_UPDATED_BY. This is going to be for 2 unique WEB_USER_IDs which would be in the WHERE clause. I will be inserting 2200 rows for each id. A single insert statement would look like this -
INSERT INTO EXISTING_TBL (list_id,web_user_id,resource_type,list_type,list_name,list_code_1,list_code_2,list_code_3,list_code_4,last_updated_dt,last_updated_by) VALUES ('470027','WEBUSER','GL','FUNDFYF',' FUND BALANCE SUM','12010','01',' ',' ',{ts '2010-5-19 10:16:9'},'SN')
How would I do this to insert the 2200 values from my 2 column table to the existing table?
All help is greatly appreciated!!

Using the Insert statement in a Java program without hardcoding the data

hello.
this is james mcfadden. i have developed a program called Demo.java, which is used with another program called QueryTableModel.java (a program that allows data to be viewed in a JTable). The Demo.java program displays a menu, connects to a database, allows the user to add data into the database and allows the user to view data that is already in the database. I have a problem with the Demo.java program. I have hardcoded the Insert statement in it. How do you use the Insert statement to put data into a database without hardcoding the data?

Generate Insert Statement Script to Extract Data from Table in Oracle 7i

Hi all, I have an old Oracle legacy system that is running for over 15 years.Every now and then we need to extract data from this table@ ORacle 7i to be imported back to Oracle 10G.
My thoughts are to create a script of Insert statements in oracle 7 and that to be deployed back to Oracle 10G.
I found this scripts in Google and not sure how exactly this works.Any explanation on thsi scripts , would be greatly appreciated.I find this scripst may help to generate a set of insert statements from that table to the latest table at 10G.
<pre>
-- Step 1: Create this procedure:
create or replace Function ExtractData(v_table_name varchar2) return varchar2 As
b_found boolean:=false;
v_tempa varchar2(8000);
v_tempb varchar2(8000);
v_tempc varchar2(255);
begin
for tab_rec in (select table_name from user_tables where table_name=upper(v_table_name))
loop
b_found:=true;
v_tempa:='select ''insert into '||tab_rec.table_name||' (';
for col_rec in (select * from user_tab_columns
where
table_name=tab_rec.table_name
order by
column_id)
loop
if col_rec.column_id=1 then
v_tempa:=v_tempa||'''||chr(10)||''';
else
v_tempa:=v_tempa||',''||chr(10)||''';
v_tempb:=v_tempb||',''||chr(10)||''';
end if;
v_tempa:=v_tempa||col_rec.column_name;
if instr(col_rec.data_type,'CHAR') > 0 then
v_tempc:='''''''''||'||col_rec.column_name||'||''''''''';
elsif instr(col_rec.data_type,'DATE') > 0 then
v_tempc:='''to_date(''''''||to_char('||col_rec.column_name||',''mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi'')||'''''',''''mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi'''')''';
else

end if;
v_tempb:=v_tempb||'''||decode('||col_rec.column_name||',Null,''Null'','||v_tempc||')||''';
end loop;
v_tempa:=v_tempa||') values ('||v_tempb||');'' from '||tab_rec.table_name||';';
end loop;
if Not b_found then
v_tempa:='-- Table '||v_table_name||' not found';
else
v_tempa:=v_tempa||chr(10)||'select ''-- commit;'' from dual;';
end if;
return v_tempa;
end;

-- STEP 2: Run the following code to extract the data.
set head off
set pages 0
set trims on
set lines 2000
set feed off
set echo off

spool c:\t1.sql
select 'set echo off' from dual;
select 'spool c:\recreatedata.sql' from dual;
select 'select ''-- This data was extracted on ''||to_char(sysdate,''mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi'') from dual;' from dual;
-- Repeat the following two lines as many times as tables you want to extract
exec :retline:=ExtractData('dept');
print :retline;
exec :retline:=ExtractData('emp');
print :retline;
select 'spool off' from dual;
spool off
@c:\t1
-- STEP3: Run the spooled output c:\recreatedata.sql to recreate data.

Thanks Justin.
I get what you are saying,i really wanted to see the output of the codes, because the furtherst i could get from that code is
SELECT EXTRACTDATA('MYTABLE') FROM MYTABLE;
and it generated this:
"select 'insert into MYTABLE ('||chr(10)||'DATE1,'||chr(10)||'TIME1,'||chr(10)||'COUNTS) values ('||decode(DATE1,Null,'Null','to_date('''||to_char(DATE1,'mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi')||''',''mm/dd/yyyy hh24:mi'')')||','||chr(10)||''||decode(TIME1,Null,'Null',TIME1)||','||chr(10)||''||decode(COUNTS,Null,'Null',COUNTS)||');' from MYTABLE;

I was expecting a string of
insert into mytable values (19/1/2009,1,1);
insert into mytable values (19/10/2008,5,10);
Thanks for the explanation .

Report with stored proc running multiple stored procedures with insert statement

Hi,
I wonder if this is possible in SSRS ... I use the 2012 version (Data Tools).
I have a report that triggers a stored procedure. See below.
Within this SP there are 2 insert statements getting data from 2 other SP's.
When I make a dataset referring to the main SP below, SSRS does not show me any fields at all.
Is this because it's a SP with insert statements and nested SP's?
At the end of the SP I make a select so it should see all the fields.
The parameters @month and @costcenter are multivalue params. I use a special function to convert the multivalues, selected in the report, into a string to pass it correctly to the query (comma separated).
USE [TestDB]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[_Pink_SP_StandingsRegisterDataset] Script Date: 15-4-2014 13:31:30 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[_Pink_SP_StandingsRegisterDataset]
@year INT,
@month NVARCHAR(50),
@costcenter NVARCHAR(500),
@GLaccount NVARCHAR(9)
AS
BEGIN
/* Remove existing content*/
DELETE FROM _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister
/* Add records part 1 */
INSERT INTO _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister
EXEC _Pink_SP_StandingsRegister @year, @month, @costcenter, @GLaccount
/* Add records part 2 */
INSERT INTO _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister
Type,
Row,
Year,
Month,
YearDatetable,
MonthDatetable
EXEC _Pink_SP_StandingsRegisterDatetable @year
/* Select all records */
SELECT *
FROM _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister
END
GO

Hi bijntjede2e,
After testing a similar scenario in my own environment, it works well in Reporting Services. In my test, the stored procedure returns all the fields from _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister table in the dataset. Then I select some values from year, month, costcenter
and Glaccount parameters, it inserts some values in the _Pink_TB_StandingsRegister table. So we can use this stored procedure as the dataset in the report.
In order to solve the problem more efficiently, I need to clarify some information.
Are you pass multiple values parameter to one stored procedure correctly? We can refer to the following thread:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/dbdfa101-cccc-4e9f-aa50-566dc5ebcc27/ssrs-2008-r2-report-dataset-call-a-stored-procedure?forum=sqlrep
What results are you get when executing the stored procedure in SQL Server Management Studio? Is it works well? We should double those stored procedures.
If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
Thanks,
Katherine Xiong

Insert statement will not work if select statement has less number of colum

Hi,
One of my thread is already resolved on the following URL : unable to insert rows into the table
DROP TABLE TEMP;
CREATE TABLE TEMP AS SELECT * FROM CASE_101 WHERE 1=2;
DECLARE
S VARCHAR2(200);
STMT VARCHAR2(500);
begin
for C in (select TABLE_NAME INTO S from USER_TABLES where TABLE_NAME like 'CASE%' TABLE_NAME NOT like '%OLD' and Num_ROWS > 0 order by TABLE_NAME) loop
STMT := 'INSERT INTO TEMP SELECT * FROM ';
STMT:=STMT || C.TABLE_NAME;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE STMT;
dbms_output.put_line(c.table_name);
end loop;
end;
i am facing now some different; almost all the tables have same number of columns except in few of tables have some additional columns. As above i am creating a table "TEMP" who has highest column temp(by doing some manual process). The table who has less columns than "TEMP" table : Insert statement will not work. 'INSERT INTO TEMP SELECT * FROM less_columns_table_name'.
Please let me know , how can i execute proper way.
Thanks.

Arshadmore often than not "TEMP" tables are NOT required & are highly inefficient in Oracle.
Either only specify explicit column in TEMP to get data,
or provide value for "extra" column in TEMP

Using sqlerrm in insert statement in 10g

I do not have 10g to test the following snippet, which tries to use sqlerrm in an insert statement:

exception
when others then
    -- the line below works in 9i
    -- dbms_output.put_line('Sqlerrm: '||sqlerrm);
    -- but the insert statement doesn't work in 9i, how about 10g ?
    insert into err(a,b) values (1,sqlerrm);
    commit;
end;

INSERT statement in Java and MS Access

Hi all,
can anyone please tell me how to insert data to an MS Access table using JSP i tried INSERT statement of java but it is getting errors saying INSERT statement is wrong. I have no idea about MS access insert statement. i am totally tired of this. Please someone help me.

Hello,
MS Sql can cause problems where it goes off standard, however I dont think insert is any different.
INSERT INTO table_name (column1, column2) VALUES (variable1, variable2)
Make sure your table and column names are exactly right, Java is case sensitive, so make sure the case is correct also.
The other common error is if you have a required field in the database that is not populated by your program, so, if for instance there was a column3 in the table for the above example, which was a required field, the sql would fail as there is no data being entered for column3.

Insert statement is not working for z table.

Hi experts,
My insert statement is not working.
I have used follwing code to update z table .
INSERT ztable FROM TABLE gt_table.
here i have checked gt_table and its filled up with all the records properly.
now the problem is in this table i have 15 fields and it inserts 14 fields of it but
the last field is never inserted though in gt_table i can see value for last fields also.
I have added this field in ztable recently . so i also used se14 to adjust table but still i am facing same problem.
please help me out.
thanks,
Neo

You shouldn't use SM30 to view table entries. You use this transaction to maintain the table entries. Pure and Simple.

Query returning different number of rows standalone vs insert statement

Hi,
We are using Oracle 10g. We are facing a issue where a SELECT inserts 26294 rows when used with a insert statement. The same select (cut-and-paste) when executed standalone, returns only 60 rows. Any idea what could be causing this?
Thanks in advance,

charred/jzhang,
Thanks for your responses. Just as an additional info, MELLON_POSITION_RECON is one hell of a view - not written by me :) - with unions and inline queries.
