I used two kinds of formulas.
In the cell A2 of Table B
the formula is :
=Table A :: $B2
It may be :
=Table A :: $B
Apply Fill Down
Copy paste it in cell A1 which is in a header row.
This formula does its duty but it’s not robust enough and will not survive to a Sort.
This is why in B2, I inserted a more robust formula :
=OFFSET(Table A :: $A$1,ROW()-1,2)

How to get the data from one table and insert into another table

Hi,
We have requirement to build OA page with the data needs to be populated from one table and on save data into another table.
For the above requirement what the best way to implement in OAF.
I understand that if we attach VO object instance to region/page, we only can pull and put data in to only one table.
Thanks

You can achieve this in many different ways, one is
1. Create another VO based on the EO which is based on the dest table.
2. At save, copy the contents of the source VO into the dest VO (see copy routine in dev guide).
3. commiting the transaction will push the data into the dest table on which the dest VO is based.
I understand that if we attach VO object instance to region/page, we only can pull and put data in to only one table.
if by table you mean a DB table, then no, you can have a VO based on multiple EOs which will do DMLs accordingly.Thanks

How can I retrieve data from one table to another automatic in SQL?

Hi, everione,
I am having a big problem, trying to create datebase.
I have 3 tables: SUPERAVATAR, MASTERAVATAR, MEGAAVATAR.
- SuperAvatars are heroes in an online role playing gaming. They have an ID, superavatarID which contain an UNIQUE NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY to identify them.
A wisdom trickster,conjuror,magician, etc..
A current owner who is the user or player of the game and has that Super Avatar we associate the link to USERID to know the person.
SuperAvatars can be fathers or mothers of Mega Avatars.
-MegaAvatars are the children of SuperAvatars. They also have an ID UNIQUE NUMBER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY to indentify them.
A magic power it can be a Leader or Sheep
A parent parent is the number identifying to know to who Super Avatar belongs.
e.g.
SUPERAVAT WISD CURRENTOWNER FATHEROF MOTHEROF
1 Thick 3 1
2 Mentally Ch. 11 3
3 Smart 9 2
4 Genius 16 4
5 Thick 19
MEGAAVATARID MAGICPOWER PARENT
1 MAGICIAN 1
2 WIZARD 3
3 SORCERER 2
4 MAGICIAN 4
-We see that MEGAAVATAR 1 has a magic power as Magician and his father is 1. 1 identifies the SUPERAVATAR.
We see SUPERAVATARID. who has the number 1? the first in the row who has wisdom thick and he belongs to the USER with ID number 3.
-We see MEGAAVATARID we choose the number 2. His magic power is as WIZARD and his father is the number 3.
We see SUPERAVATARID now we look up the SuperavatarID 3. We can see he has a wisdom GENIUS who belongs to the USERID 16 and he is father of MEGAAVATAR number 2.
The list can carry on and never stop.
I have this Problems:
We create in this example 3 tables: Users, SuperAvatar, MegaAvatar
SQL
CREATE TABLE users(userID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_user PRIMARY KEY,email VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL UNIQUE,password VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL UNIQUE,subscription CHAR(8) NOT NULL CHECK (subscription IN('ACTIVE' , 'INACTIVE' ) ) );
CREATE TABLE superavatar(superavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_superavatar PRIMARY KEY, wisdom VARCHAR2(19) NOT NULL CHECK (wisdom IN ('THICK', 'MENTALLY CHALLENGED', 'AWAKE', 'SMART', 'GENIUS')), currentOwner NUMBER NOT NULL, fatherOf NUMBER,motherOf NUMBER);
CREATE TABLE megaavatar (megaavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_megaavatar PRIMARY KEY, magicPower VARCHAR2(12) NOT NULL CHECK (magicPower IN('TRICKSTER','CONJUROR','MAGICIAN','WIZARD','SORCERER')), parent NUMBER);
Now, the 3 tables are created..
What happen when we try to insert values to this table?
In this case we insert to User Table some examples:
INSERT INTO users VALUES('3','[email protected]','great78','ACTIVE');
INSERT INTO users VALUES('9','[email protected]','chrisandra)','ACTIVE');
Now, we insert to SuperAvatar some examples;
INSERT INTO superavatar VALUES('1','THICK','3','1','');
INSERT INTO superavatar VALUES('3','SMART','9','3','');
|
|
9 is the UserID that we already insert to the User table
Whats the problem?
We have to insert manually the data from USERID to CURRENTOWNER as we didnt match or link CURRENTOWNER from SUPERAVATAR Table to USERID from USER Table with a SQL CODE.
What happen if we have thousands of USERS that they register to this game? We will never know to how belongs that SUPERAVATAR but if someone do it manually can spend a year.
I am trying to fix this problem . I add in SUPERAVATAR TABLE CHECK in currentOwner..
SQL> CREATE TABLE superavatar
(superavatarID NUMBER CONSTRAINT pk_superavatar PRIMARY KEY, wisdom VARCHAR2(19) NOT NULL CHECK (wisdom IN ('THICK', 'MENTALLY CHALLENGED', 'AWAKE', 'SMART', 'GENIUS')),
currentOwner NUMBER NOT NULL CHECK (currentOwner IN(SELECT userID FROM users)),
fatherOf NUMBER,
motherOf NUMBER);
ERROR:
ORA-02251: subquery not allowed here
It doesnt work.
Please HELP, I have exam tomorrow
thank you
Desy

Hallo,
you can use trigger on table USER and fill the userid in AVATAR.currentowner,
but i don't understand, how you join these tables ?
Which user id must come in which column currentowner ?
Design problem ?

Simple way to insert data from one table

Hi,
I need to know a simple way on how to transfer the data from one table to another....
First table xx_inv_tab1 has three columns col1, col2, col3 and where as second table xx_inv_tab2 has five columns col1, col2, col3, col4, col5.
Here col2, col3, col4 are the same columns as in table1 xx_inv_tab1...
Now I want to transfer first table data in to second table .... first column of second table holds a sequence, followed by the first table three columns data and followed with col4 and col5 which will hold NULL values....
In my scenario, I have 70 - 75 columns in my first table which I want to move to second table which three new columns (one is sequence and other two has null values)...
Any ideas if we make it in a simplest way rather saying insert into xx_inv_tab2 (col1, col2, col3 ............................................. col75) values (seq, col1, col2..........................col75, null, null)
Help Appreciated..
Thanks

Easy
untested
insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2 (col1,col2,col3,col4)
select yourSequence.nextval, t1.col1, t1.col2, t1.col3
from xx_inv_tab1 t1
;Note that col5 does not need to be used, since you want to fill it with NULL.
USe excel or sql developer to write you a list of column names, if you are to lazy to write all 75 columns by yourself.
What might also work:
untested
insert into xx_inv_tab2 t2
select yourSequence.nextval, t1.*, null
from xx_inv_tab1 t1

How can I Move data from one column to another in my access table?

I have two columns, one that stores current month’s data and one that stores last month’s data. Every month data from column 2 (this month’s data) needs to be moved to column 1 that holds last month’s data. I then null out column 2 so I can accumulates this month’s data.
I understand how to drop a column or add a column, how do I transfer data from one column to another.
Here is my trial code:
<cfquery name="qQueryChangeColumnName" datasource="#dsn#">
ALTER TABLE leaderboard
UPDATE leaderboard SET points2 = points3
</cfquery>
Unfortunately, I get the following error:
Error Executing Database Query.
[Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error in ALTER TABLE statement.
How can I transfer my data with the alter table method?

I looked up the Access SQL reference (which is probably a
good place to start when having issues with Access SQL), and
it suggests you probably need a WHERE clause in there.
I agree the documentation is a good place to start. But you should not need a WHERE clause here.
Too few parameters. Expected 1.
If you run the SQL directly in Access, what are the results? At the very least, it should provide a more informative error message..

How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.

Hi All,
         How do i transfer data from one internal tabe to another.
         Can i do it ebven if he tables are different in structure.
Please Advice.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Saket Tiwari,
I hope the earlier post by kashyap is good enough an answer. anywas in addition to it let me give a detailed
explanation of how you can populate an internal table.
1) Append data line by line.
     Syntax : APPEND [<wa> TO / INITIAL LINE TO] <itab>.
this appends new line to internal table <itab>.
2) Using COLLECT statement.
             COLLECT is another form of statement used for populating the internal tables. Generally COLLECT is used while inserting lines into an internal table with unique standard key. The syntax for COLLECT statement is as shown
     Syntax : COLLECT [<wa> INTO] <itab>.
3) Using INSERT statement
     Syntax INSERT [<wa> INTO / INITIAL LINE INTO] <itab> [index <idx>].
INSERT statement adds a line/work area to the internal table. You can specify the position at which the new line is to be added by using the INDEX clause with the INSERT statement.
Now coming to your request..
To append part or all of an internal table
     Syntax
              APPEND LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>] TO <itab2>.
*     Note:
Without the FROM and TO options, this statement appends the entire table <itab1> to <itab2>.*
b) To insert part or all of an internal table into another internal table
     Syntax
          INSERT LINES OF <itab1> [FROM <n1>] [TO <n2>]
          INTO <itab2> [INDEX <idx>].
c) Using Move statement.
To copy entire contents of one table into another in one execution
     Syntax MOVE <itab1> To <itab2>.
               OR
          <itab1> = <itab2>.
but u hav to be careful because he contents of itab2 will eb overwritten on the execution of this statement.
These copy the contents of ITAB1 to ITAB2. Incase of internal tables with header line we have to use [] inorder to distinguish from work area. So, to copy contents of internal tables with header line the syntax becomes,
ITAB1[] = ITAB2[].
Coming to the letter part of your question, Yes, we can copy values between tables having different structures.
for this we use
                            MOVE-CORRESPONDING <itab1> TO <itab2>
    this executes the statement for their header lines. Searches for the sub-fields which occur both in itab1 and itab2 and then generates, for all relevant field pairs which correspond to the
        sub-fields ni , statements of the form MOVE itab1-ni TO itab2-ni. The other fields remain unchanged.
I hope the information provided has been of your help.
Reward if useful.

Jose

Adding Data From One Table to Another

Now, this doesn't strike me as a particularly complex problem, but I've either strayed outside the domain of Numbers or I'm just not looking at the problem from the right angle. In any case, I'm sure you guys can offer some insight.
What I'm trying to do is, essentially, move data from one table to another. One table is a calendar, a simple two column 'date/task to be completed' affair, the other is a schedule of jogging workouts, i.e, times, distances. Basically, I'm trying to create a formula that copies data from the second table onto the first but only for odd days of the week, excepting Sundays (and assuming Monday as the start of the week). Now, this isn't the hard part, I can do that. The problem comes when I replicate the formula down the calendar. Even on the days when the 'if' statement identifies it as an 'even day', the cell reference to the appropriate workout on the second table is incremented, so when it comes to the next 'odd day', it has skipped a workout.
I can't seem to see any way of getting it to specifically copy the NEXT line in the second table, and not the corresponding line.
This began as a distraction to try and organise my running so I could see at a glance what I had to do that day and track my progress, but now it's turned into an obsession. SURELY there's a solution?
Cheers.

Hi Sealatron,
Welcome to Apple Discussions and the Numbers '09 forum.
Several possible ways to move the data occur to me, but the devil's in the details of how the data is currently arranged.
Is it
• a list of three workouts, one for each of Monday, Wednesday and Friday, then the same three repeated the following week?
• an open-ended list that does not repeat?
• something else?

Barry

How can I transport data from one client to another client?

How can I transport data from one client to another client?

hmmm, CTS = cutomizing transport?
If you have a customizing table, there are still two possibilities.
1. customize in DEV system and transport
2. customize right there where you need it.
this depends on how the maintainance view is built. If it is a simple customizing table and you get not asked for a TR when customizing a new record or changing an existing one, you hit possibility 2.

Copy data from one Table to another Table

How can I copy data from one Oracle Table to another Oracle Table on a different server? Question 2: How can I clear all of the data in one Table with a single SQL script?
Thanks...

Question 1:
I assume you have the privileges. If you don't, ask the DBA to give them to you. Then
1. Login to database_source (It could be either the source or the target. Let's assume it's the source.)
2. Create a database link to database_target: CREATE DATABASE LINK link_to_database_target CONNECT TO myuserid IDENTIFIED BY mypassword USING 'database_target'; Note the single quotes.
3. Copy the table data: INSERT INTO targetowner.mytable@link_to_database_target SELECT * FROM sourceowner.mytable; COMMIT;
Question 2:
You have two options, but you may not have privileges for both.
Option 1:
DELETE FROM tableowner.tablename; COMMIT;
Advantage: Since this is a DML (Data Manipulation Language) statement, you have to commit the transaction. Also, the data will be gone but the table size is NOT changed, so it's ready for accepting replacement data. DML statements can simply be executed not only from SQL scripts, but from PL/SQL scripts as well.
Disadvantage: Slow, because all record deletion is logged, so you can recover from it by issuing a ROLLBACK; instead of the COMMIT; above. The table size is NOT changed, so if you are short of disk space or tablespace space, you have not resolved the issue.
Option 2:
TRUNCATE TABLE tableowner.tablename;
Advantage: Since this is a DDL (Data Definition Language) command, you do NOT have to commit the transaction. (DDL commands automatically commit both before and after their execution.) The table size will be changed back to the initial extent size which is the minimum size a table can have and can only be set when the table is created. If it needs to be changed, the table has to be dropped and recreated with a different initial extent size. The statement execution of this command is not logged, therefore it's much faster then the DELETE.
Disadvantage: No rollback. Being a DDL, this command cannot be executed straight from PL/SQL. If you need to issue this within PL/SQL, you will have to use dynamic SQL.

Assigning data from one Table type to another structure

Hi every one,
I have a table type X sent from one function module to another Proxy generated method which has the parameter defined as a structure.
I have declared a variable Y as a LINE TYPE OF X.
Then I have this statement which fills up the data.
READ TABLE X INTO Y INDEX 1.
The data is transferred from X to Y.
Now i need to send this to the proxy generated Function module which has a structure Z.
Now when i say MOVE-CORRESPONDING Y to a variable of type Z, it says it cannot be converted.
The structure in proxy generated FM has different data type but the same domain as that of standard one.
Everywhere it is prefixed with YY.
And also has one additional Controller tab inserted,
Can you guys tell me how to move the data from this table type to the structure.
- Venkat

Hi,
Declare a variable of line type Z.
Move corresponding values from variable X to this variable.
Append this variable to the table Z.
Try this.

MySQL move date from one table to another

I was wondering if there is a MySQL command that will let me move a selected row of data from one table to another. both tables have the same columns and declaration type (one table is actually an archived table on old data)
example
I wasnt to move all data in Table1 where the date is greater than 30 days old to Table 2
-- so the result should be...import all rows to Table 2 where the date is greater than 30 days old..and delete all date from Table 1 that is greater than 30 days.
currently..I'm doing three process
1) get all row that is greater than 30 days
    "SELECT * FROM Table1 WHERE TO_DAYS(NOW()) - TO_DAYS(dateField) > 30"
2) insert data into Table2
    while (res.hasNext())
          TableData data = ..... // .get row
          dataList.add(data);
          for (int i = 0; i < dataList.size(); i++){
                pstm.setString.....
                pstm.addBatch()
          pstm.executeBatch();
3) delete data from Table1
    "DELETE FROM Table 1 WHERE TO_DAYS(NOW()) - TO_DAYS(dateField) > 30"

for this app..losing a few rows does not
impact on how we analyze the data.That's what everyone always tells me too. But 99% of the time they come back and want to know why the cannot balance and/or validate the data between two runs taken only minutes from each other.
I've seen people puzzle over data for days that they swear they ran the exact same utility for their tests, but they were in fact using live data, and additional data had accrued but since all they had to do was execute the a script without parameters (they didn't put in a stop time), they got two different answers and it always, and I mean always confuses people. Be safe, and put the option in for and end date/time, then when they waste days trying to figure out why the two different observations gave them different numbers, they cannot blame you (because you gave them the option)!
My 2 cents for the day...

Copying large amount of data from one table to another getting slower

I have a process that copies data from one table (big_tbl) into a very big archive table (vb_archive_tbl - 30 mil recs - partitioned table). If there are less than 1 million records in the big_tbl the copy to the vb_archive_table is fast (-10 min), but more importantly - it's consistant. However, if the number of records is greater than 1 million records in the big_tbl copying the data into the vb_archive_tbl is very slow (+30 min - 4 hours), and very inconsistant. Every few days the time it takes to copy the same amount of data grows signicantly.
Here's an example of the code I'm using, which uses BULK COLLECT and FORALL INSERST to copy the data.
I occasionally change 'LIMIT 5000' to see performance differences.
DECLARE
TYPE t_rec_type IS RECORD (fact_id NUMBER(12,0),
store_id VARCHAR2(10),
product_id VARCHAR2(20));
TYPE CFF_TYPE IS TABLE OF t_rec_type
INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
T_CFF CFF_TYPE;
CURSOR c_cff IS SELECT *
FROM big_tbl;
BEGIN
OPEN c_cff;
LOOP
FETCH c_cff BULK COLLECT INTO T_CFF LIMIT 5000;
FORALL i IN T_CFF.first..T_CFF.last
INSERT INTO vb_archive_tbl
VALUES T_CFF(i);
COMMIT;
EXIT WHEN c_cff%NOTFOUND;
END LOOP;
CLOSE c_cff;
END;
Thanks you very much for any advice
Edited by: reid on Sep 11, 2008 5:23 PM

Assuming that there is nothing else in the code that forces you to use PL/SQL for processing, I'll second Tubby's comment that this would be better done in SQL. Depending on the logic and partitioning approach for the archive table, you may be better off doing a direct-path load into a staging table and then doing a partition exchange to load the staging table into the partitioned table. Ideally, you could just move big_tbl into the vb_archive_tbl with a single partition exchange operation.
That said, if there is a need for PL/SQL, have you traced the session to see what is causing the slowness? Is the query plan different? If the number of rows in the table is really a trigger, I would tend to suspect that the number of rows is causing the optimizer to choose a different plan (with your sample code, the plan is obvious, but perhaps you omitted some where clauses to simplify things down) which may be rather poor.
