How do you restrict the number of table columns on the data tab?

I have a table with 50+ columns. Is it possible to restrict the list of columns on the data tab to say 5 columns as I'm only interested in seeing/updateing the data for these 5 columns. You can restrict the number of rows using the filter but not the columns. Is there some other way seeing an updateable "view" of the table? I suppose you could create a number of views and edit through them but there are too many combinations.

I don't know of any way of reducing the number of columns that display in the Table data grid.
However, you can rearrange the columns to have the five columns you want to edit as the first five. With fifty columns, even this would be some effort to find and drag them to the left of the view, but it should give you the five columns you want to update on the window at the same time.

Hi,
i have set up a small test case on apex.oracle.com and I receive the same error if I use download format.
I have a table
test_blob (id number, name varchar2(10), blobcont blob)
If I create IR like
select
    id,
    name,
    blobcont
from test_bloband then I define download format I hit the error.
If you want this to work you have to change your query to
select
    id,
    name,
    dbms_lob.getlength(blobcont) blobcont
from test_blobAnd then again define download format for blob on blobcont column.

The number of display columns in the report reached the limit" Interactive Report

I get the error message of "The number of display columns in the report reached the limit" when trying to display less than 100 (100 is limit) columns when an aggregate has been created.   This does not happen when an aggregate has not been added to the IR report. It seems to happen because I have a control break on as well. When I turn off the control break it works but is not the result that we want. Interesting enough, if I filter the results down to 500 rows it works just fine. Does oracle treat aggregates as columns!? This is a really odd issue that I really need to clear up.

I cannot sort my songs using the "plays" column (also known as the number of plays column). The number of "plays" is not increasing as a song finishes.

The "plays" column (also known as the number of plays column) is not saving not saving the number of plays (v 11.0).

My number of 'Plays' was not increasing anymore at some point after updating to Version 11. I had iTunes rev 11.0.1.12. Today I updated to the latest rev 11.0.2.26, and now the numer of plays is increasing, so they must have fixed the bug!

How can I relate the fields a table column to the headers of the columns in another table?

Here is my problem:
I have a table where the first column is a list of types of characteristics and I want to compare that column with a table which has some columns, each one with a type of charasteristic.
It's like relating a column to a file (the header file).
PD: My level is beginner.

Well I don´t want the space on both sides of the input text to be that big either so that doesn´t solve the problem.

HT1229 How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what.

How do you transfer photos to external backup and keep the photos in events with event name or with description name. Each time I have tried to transfer them they only transfer with a jpg number so you don't know what photos are what. When you have several thousand photos it is difficult to determined what is what.
Why does iPhoto have the ability to put photos in events and to give them descriptions if it doesn't transfer this info with the photo. I want to back my photos up to an external drive.

The simplest way to achieve what you want is to back up the iPhoto Library. That will get everything.
You sem to be exporting from iPhoto to the Finder. The Finder does not have the same organisation capabilities as iPhoto. If you're going to do that you need to understand some of the differences between the two.
Event Name will become Folder Name.
'Description Name' I guess is the Title you give the Photo
Jpeg Number is the File Name assigned by your camera.
So: File -> Export
Set your Kind to Jpeg
Select your preferred Quality
Check the Boxes at 'Titles and Descriptions' and Location Information
Under FIlename select 'Use Title'
Click on Export. In the Next Window choose a New Folder as your export destination and then Name that as you prefer

Limitation on the number of tables in a Database Schema!

Hi All,
Is there a limitation on the number of tables present in a schema that can be fetched in Designer while creating a universe.
Customer is using Oracle schema which contains 22000 tables and while trying to insert tables in Designer XIR2 (or trying to get the table browser) Designer hangs.
In BO 6.5 there are no issues while retrieving the tables from the schema in Designer.
Is there a way to retrieve only a certain amount of tables in Designer XIR2?
Thanks for your help!

Hi Ganesh,
Following are the Answers regaring your queries:
Query : 1
There is no limitation on the number of components (objects, classes, tables, joins, hierarchies, lov's, etc) in a universe. But of course as the number of components increases, you could run into problems related to performance.
This depends on available RAM and the processing speed.
Query 2:
There is NO such option to select the number of table to be automatically inserted in to the universe because Suppose if you have 22000 tables in DB and you want only 1000 table ,you entered 1000 tables as the value to insert tables in Universe then How Designer will come to know which tables you want to take in Schema to build the Universe?
It all depends on the DBA and Universe Designer which tables are important for organizations reporting needs.
When you create connection to the DB then Connection will fetch all table from the database and we canu2019t limit DB data retrieval.
I hope this Helps...
Thanks...

How to get the number of rows written to the header of the spool file.

Hi
I need to create a header line for the spool file .
the header line should include fixed length values .
The header should include the number of records found in the table with a maximum begin date (begin_date is the column of the table)
To get the header in the spool file , i wrote a select query has :-
--SPOOL 'C:\Documents and Settings\abc\Desktop\output.TXT'
select 'W'||to_char(sysdate,'MM/DD/YYYYMi:HH:SS')||lpad(max(rownum),9,'000000000') ||'R'||max(to_char(school_from_date,'MM/DD/YYYY')) ||
rpad(' ',76,' ')
from dad.school
group by sysdate;
SPOOL OFF
which gets me all the rows in the table , but i only want the rows with the latest school_begin_date .
how can i achieve that ...
I know that a subquery should be written in the from clause to get the number of rows found with a maximum school_begin_date.
select 'W'||to_char(sysdate,'MM/DD/YYYYMi:HH:SS')||lpad(max(rownum),9,'000000000') ||'R'||max(to_char(school_from_date,'MM/DD/YYYY')) ||
rpad(' ',76,' ')
from dad.school where
select rownum from dad.school
where school_begin_date = max(school_begin_date) ;
the error i get is
ORA-00934: group function is not allowed here
I NEED HELP ..IN GETTING THE ROWNUM JUST FOR THE LATEST BEGIN_DATE ?
PLS HELP ME IN WRITING THE QUERY .
THANKS IN ADVANCE .

Try this:
select 'W'||to_char(sysdate,'MM/DD/YYYYMi:HH:SS')||lpad(max(rownum),9,'000000000')||'R'||max(to_char(school_from_date,'MM/DD/YYYY')) || rpad(' ',76,' ')
from dad.school
where school_begin_date = (select max(school_begin_date)
from dad.school);

How do you select a sub-set of cells from the entire document so you can print only those specific cells?

There is no analog to MS Excels print range. So the next best thing is to plan your data so that you don't need to use print range. The next best thing after that is to select the range of cells you want to print, then copy, the switch to the application Preview, and create a new document from the clipboard (select the menu item "File > New from Clibboard") then select all, copy then paste to the destination (maybe an email) .
You can also paste that portion of the table into another table (or a new table) by pasting values only

How can i read every"number" value and not only the 1st?

in the vi only the first "number" value(from the data acquisition)is read in the small loop.how can i make every value to be read?every value must be compared with the "numeric" constant,and,if greater the led must turn on.afterwards,when a value which is less than the "numeric" is found the led must turn off.please answer or send mail to [email protected]

The more I look at your program, the less I understand it.
Why are you setting number = number in a case if SO2 = ""? number always equals number.
In your sequence frames 1 and 4, you have no control over which write (date or time) happens first. Just placing one function to the left of another doesn't make it happen first if your wiring doesn't create data dependency. Review the section on Data Dependency in chapter 5 of the LabView User's Manual.
It looks you're writing to and reading from the same file using Write File and Read Lines from File.vi. Why read back data you just wrote? You have the data on your diagram. If you want to convert it from string to numeric, use a Sring/Number Conversion function from the String palette.
On Read Lines from File.vi (which I'm not sure you even need), you should use a shift register for the start of read offset rather than a local variable for mark after read (chars.). With a shift register, you can initialize it to 0 when the VI starts. Using a local, if you restart the VI, it will try to startup from where you left off the last time, but you just opened the file for create or replace.
In your sequence frames 2 and 3, why do you wait for the number to be less than the numeric before writing a carriage return to the file? Also, LabView has a End of Line constant which adapts to the expected value for the operating system. That's generally more flexible than a Carriage Return.
It looks to me like you're overusing control refnums. You don't need to use a control refnum and a property node to set or read a control's value if you can wire directly to the control's terminal.
I really don't understand what you're doing with pause and variants. I may be missing the point, but it looks like you made this much more complicated than it needs to be. Why not keep it a boolean?
For your pause-path, you open the file but never close it. You can lose data that way. You also open it using open function 3, create new file. You'll get an error if the file already exists.
On a general note, your diagram would be easier to read if you were more selective in how you routed your wires: you have wires on top of wires, wires running under sub-VIs, wires running in the frame of a while loop, wires running under labels.
I think there's a temptation to overuse sequences. I don't think you need one here. As I mentioned in my earlier message, case structures and shift registers will be more useful to you.

How can I reduce the number of event cases in the main VI?

I would like to reduce the number of event case of the event structure in my main VI. E.g. I would like to have pop up window with a table when the user double click a table row. Nothing more simple than this: add a case to the event structure trigger by double clicking the table, read the table row ... But in my main VI I would have lots of them and the event structure gets crowded with minor tasks. One solution is using XControls. But is there any other recomended way to handle selected events separatly from the event structure in the main VI?
to clarify: I don't want to distribute the whole event structure. (In this case the code would not be maintainable) But I would like to handle certain context specific events in a differnt place. If I have them all in the main VI the drop down list of the events in the event structure exceeds the windows size and the program becomes difficult to maintain because one looses the overview.

"Strictly forbidden" is not true. But highly not recommended. The reason is simple:
1. Code can react unpredictable. Dennis already stated some things about that in your linked thread.
2. Code is not readable and therefore not maintainable. Each event source should have only one event structure for its events. Since the UI is a single source, events from there should be captured in a single event structure. It is recommended to use this event structure as producer in a producer/consumer design pattern in order not to block the events.
3. You will most propably need timeouts in your event structure which completly negates the advantage of event driven programming. Either use event driven programming or stay at polling. Do not mix (most of all because of maintenance).
Regarding your "advantages" you listed:
- Clustering reduces readability in therefore should never be done. Additionally, it requires timeout cases in most places which is not recommended.
- If you have such many events and interactions in your "sequence", it is a clear indication that you chose the wrong architecture for your application.
Please see attached example. Since i am not used to program with more than one event structure (except if i have different dedicated event sources), the example is "constructed" and therefore may lack of "realism". Nevertheless, it shows some issues which might occur:
- Blocking calls within the events lead to the fact that the UI is not responsive for the event time (FuncA). Nevertheless, interaction is still enqueued and if the blocking call is over, all those interaction are executed. In the example, please press FuncA and then press FuncC immediatly. You will see that nothing happens and after the 5s blocking call, the FuncC dialog appears. You also can switch tabs, but the visual display will update only after the 5s blocking call.
- In order to keep the UI responsive, FuncB is configured not to block the UI. But this is no solution: Press FuncB (on page 2) and the change to page 1 and press FuncA. Additionally, press FuncC. What happens? Just to mess things up, press Stop as well......do this combination several times. It is possible that only the lower loop is finished and the VI is still running even if Stop has been pressed.
Please note everyone that the attached example shoudl strictly be seen as "NEVER DO IT LIKE THIS". This is a negative example and shows the approach which is not recommended by any means!
