How do you join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery

I am trying to join two tables from different Oracle schemas using a subquery. I can extract data from each of the tables without a problem. However, when I combine the select statements using a subquery I get the Oracle error *'ORA-00936: missing expression'*. Since each SELECT statement executes on its own without error I don't understand what is missing. The result set I am trying to get is to match up the LINE_ID from PDTABLE_12_1 in schema DD_12809 with the MAT_DESCRIPTION from table PDTABLE_201 in schema RA_12809.
The query is as follows:
sql = "SELECT [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].LINE_ID FROM [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1] JOIN " _
+ "(SELECT [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201].MAT_DESCRIPTION " _
+ "FROM [RA_12809].[PDTABLE_201]) AS FAB " _
+ "ON [DD_12809].[PDTABLE_12_1].PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS"
The format of the query is copied from a SQL programming manual.
I also tried executing the query using a straight JOIN on the two tables but got the same results. Any insight would be helpful. Thanks!

I believe you are receiving the error because you are trying to JOIN on a column that doesn't exist. For example you are trying to join on FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS but that column does not exist in the subquery.
If you want to do a straight join without a subquery you could do the following
SELECT DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.LINE_ID
,       FAB.MAT_DESCRIPTION
FROM    DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1
JOIN    RA_12809.PDTABLE_201    AS FAB ON DD_12809.PDTABLE_12_1.PIPING_MATER_CLASS = FAB.PIPING_MATER_CLASS HTH!

How can i join two libraries from two different users

how can i join two libraries from two different users in the same computer?

I should add that you can turn on SHARING where each user can see the other user's library and play stuff out of it. But they can not import those tracks to their own library or put them into their own playlists or burn CDs of the shared library.
Also note, to do this you need to have the fast switching option enabled with the accounts so both can be running at the same time and both must have iTunes running at the same time.

No Easy Way to Join on Tables from Different Schemas

Hi,
The company policy does not allow to join on tables from different schemas or use db links...
I'm tasked to come up with a Perl script that does exactly that - allows for the SELECT statement to do several joins on 3 different schemas. In addition 1 of the schemas is on the different host altogether.
Upping the privileges for my user and allowing db links is not an option...Can someone, please help me to understand on a conceptual level how would I use Perl and what logic would it have and what would it (perl) do?
Thank you,

Court in the wrong job... ;)
It's like a librarian who is a hard rock artist maintaining the silence in the premises. ;)
My dear friend, i don't think this is the right place for your requirement. This is the PL/SQL forum. If you have any problem related PL/SQL or SQL you can place that here.

If I want to join two table together .
I want to search the number of record in IMEI that have N_SIM_STATE =1 in RCA_SMART_CARD .
The MSISDN in IMEI is equal to C_SIM_MSISDN in RCA_SMART_CARD .
How can I do and what is the sql statment ??
Please advice .

First you need to decide, from where you want to execute the query.
Let us assume it is instance A(as per your example).
Then what you need to do is:
1.     Create database link to instance B
*[url http://www.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10759/statements_5005.htm]Here* is the semantics.
2.     After creating the database link to instance B, you can achieve the result set by running the below query:
        SQL> select count(*) from IMEI t1 join RCA_SMART_CARD@<db_link_name> t2 on t1.MSISDN = t2.C_SIM_MSISDN where t2.N_SIM_STATE = 1
        Hope it helps!

Import Data Table from Different DB Schema in BI Administration

When I select fields from more than one schema in BI Answer, incorrect result is returned.

It seems that query has been seperated into two, and doesn't have relationship between each others.
However, I also tested the same situation in other environment, and it returns correct result. I found that the query hasn't been seperated into two, but one. The query is as below:
-------------------- Sending query to database named BI (id: <<2392>>):

order by c1, c2, c3
This query returns correct result and seems reasonable.
Assume that the setup in BI Administration is the same for both environment, why the first situation returns query that are separated?

I have made the same remark but not with two different environment and same design.
What can influence the construction of two queries ?
Here some ideas :
- if you have of course two connections pools (I assume not)
- if in our database features (double click on the icon and choose the tab feature), full outer join is not supported
But I have this two requirement on my laptop and I can see that I have also two sql fired.
What you can do is to make a comparison of your two repository.
In the administration tool, File/Compare.
The result will be very interesting.

Joining two tables having no common fields using one select query

Hi Experts,
How to join two tables which are NOT having any field in common using only one select query?
Your help will be appreciated.
Thank you.

Identify a third table (or more tables) with common fields with your two tables, or change your question either removing JOIN or removing NO COMMON FIELDS, else you wont get many responses and will be left alone in outer space, as suggested by Thomas.
If you acturally require what you written, better execute two select and merge the two internal tables merging every record from first table with every record of second table, til no more memory is available.

Raymond

Select query based on joining of tables from different database is taking too long

Hi Team,
Select query on table with millions of records is taking very long time. It took 50mins, the below query is joining on multiple table from two databases DB1.dbo.Table1 contains 100 million records and also Table3 and Table4 (of different database) might
contain close to 1million records.
Select T1.*
From DB1.dbo.Table1 T1
Join DB1.dbo.Table2 T2 on RTRIM(T1.Col3) = RTRIM(T2.Col3)
Join Table4 CA on RTRIM(T1.Col1) + T2.Col2 = CA.Col1
Join Table3 U on CA.Col2 = U.Col2 AND RTRIM(T2.Col2) = U.Col3
Where U.Col4 NOT IN ('A1', 'A2', 'A3', 'A4', 'A5', 'A6','A7','A8','A9')
And (T1.flg IS NULL OR T1.flg = 'N')
And LTRIM(RTRIM(T2.Col2)) NOT IN ('B1','B2')
How can i improve the performance of this query. Actual thing is update the data in Db1.dbo.table1 based on the conditions but if the select is taking close to 1hr then update will take hours together. Indexes already implemented on all the tables.
Thanks,
Eshwar.

Join Table4 CA on RTRIM(T1.Col1) + T2.Col2 = CA.Col1
This join is not working with spaces if Rtrim is not used.

Joining two tables with different DB

Hi
We have 2 sources DB2 and Oracle.
In DB2 we have two tables which stores.
Tbl1
Case_no     Information1     Information2     Information3
11112     sddf     asd     null null
11113     asd     asd     null null
Tbl2
Inf     Info1     Code     Info3
Xedy     Asdf     111     afder
Mad     Tag     123     top
The above tables are complex join with this condition
Tbl1.case_no=Tbl1.case_no.
Oracle tbl
Code     Code_desc
111     Very good
123     bad
My requirement is to join the tbl2 with Oracle tbl. Based on the codes in DB2 table I should display the Code_desc in my reports. Like this
Case_no     Code     Code_desc
11112     111     Very good
11113     123     bad
But I am getting the Cartesian result.
Case_no     Code     Code_desc
11112     111     Very good
11112     123     bad
11113     111     Very good
11113     123     bad
Please help to resolve.

Select Oracletbl and tbl2, right click on them open physical diagram, selected objects. In the physical diagram page Create a join between Oracletbl and tbl2 with the condition code=code.
In business model create a complex join between these two. Now reload metadata/restart services check output.
Let me know if this does not work you.

How do you combine two or more different toolbars?

There is wasted space on multiple toolbars that could be utilized better by moving one tool bar's items up to the empty space above. IE Norton's tool bar has 3 / 4 items on it. The Firefox tool bar above has 3 items on it: Most Visited, Getting Started and Firefox Updated with 2/3's of the bar as empty space.
Even the menu toolbar has over half of the toolbar as empty wasted space.
How do you do that? Thanks

You can (temporarily) hide unneeded toolbars via "View > Toolbars"
The bar with Most Visited and Getting Started is the Bookmarks Toolbar and if you open "View > Toolbars > Customize" then you can drag the "Bookmarks Toolbar items" item onto another toolbar (e.g. Menu bar) and hide that now empty Bookmarks toolbar.<br />
Toolbars added by an extension can only be merged onto another toolbar if that extension supports that feature and most extensions do not.

How to read an APO table from excel in place using Visual Basic ?

We have enhanced some APO reports using layouts that use excel in place with custom visual basic (VB) code. For example, the VB code can append the data with additional columns that perform specific calculations and then proceed to create pivot table reports in excel..That is working fine.
The challenge is to see if that VB code could read specific APO tables (e.g. product master tables) to bring additional elements into excel and thus expand the report content. We know that additional fields can be added to the reports, but having the flexibility to read tables from VB could be more flexible.
Can that be done?. If so, would it be possible using exclusively the VB code attached to the layout, i.e. no ABAP?

Hello Anselmo,
I am assuming you are doing this either using BeX analyzer or by reading the planning book using the RFC ActiveX component and a BAPI.
I think it's possible to retrieve the data from the product master table. Here are my thoughts on how can this be done:
1) You can create a generic datasource (transaction RSO2) for the product master table, connect that to a BW remotecube and use a BeX query to retrieve that values. You can then join the queries using VBA. Alternatively, you can build a muti-provider that connects your current InfoCube to the new RemoteCube and build a query from there. The multi-provider, in this case, joins the data (no more VBA).
2) If you have already loaded your product master data into master data carrying InfoObjects then you can try the same technique as #1 but this time there is no need to create the generic datasource. You can use the InfoObjects for your master data as the InfoProviders for your query.
3) You can try the ActiveX component from SAP which can connect to any emote enabled function in SAP system. SAP already provided some BAPIs (check transaction BAPI for a list) which might be able to provide the data. You can also create your own function modules (be sure to make it remote enabled) using ABAP. (transaction SE37).
Hope this helps
