How format column value

Hi,
I've this table TAB_COD:
COD_ID
00-300001-P01
01-1-P01
00-34-P01
00-200001-P01
00-1671-P01
00-300001-P01
00-100001-P01
00-200001-T01
00-400001-C01
00-900001-R01
PNRST01-P01
C0RTN-P01
ABCFRT01-P01
00-12-P01
Id like to get new cod_id with this conditions:
- eliminate "-" in the Third position
- add zero on the left (from Fourth position) until 6 Characters Leaving unchanged last 4 Characters (-P01, -R01,....)
- Leaving unchanged cod_id Alphanumeric without last 4 Characters (-P01, -R01,....)
In my case I'd like to have this output:
COD_ID
00300001-P01 --eliminate "-" in the Third position and add zero on the left (from Fourth position)
01000001-P01
00000034-P01
00200001-P01
00001671-P01
00300001-P01
00100001-P01
00200001-T01
00400001-C01
00900001-R01
PNRST01-P01 -- Leaving unchanged cod_id Alphanumeric
C0RTN-P01
ABCFRT01-P01
00000012-P01
I tried this query:
select SUBSTR(COD_ID,1,2)||LPAD(SUBSTR(COD_ID,4),6,'0')||'-'||SUBSTR(COD_ID,-3)
from TAB_COD;
But semms not correct
How can I write this query to get my output?
Thanks in advance!

You could try something like this:
test@ORA10G>
test@ORA10G> with tab_cod as (
2    select '00-300001-P01' as cod_id from dual union all
3    select '01-1-P01' from dual union all

How: making column value as column of select statement

Hi
Quickly I have searched in this forum for following solution but not able to find it.
I need to make a query in such a way that the value of one column in one table should act as a column-name of another table
Eg:-
tab1
col1,col2,*col3*,col4
tab2
col11 col22 col33 col44
row1 a b col3 d
row2 aa bb cc dd
So the query should be something like --- in row2 if the value is col3 then from tab1 I should pick the col3 in select statement (basically there will be some join in tab1 and tab2 )
Hope I am able to make u all understand my query.
regards

Hi all,
Sorry for late response.Just now I checked all the replies.
Actually I tried in this way.
CREATE OR REPLACE function Proc_caption (in_tan varchar2, in_order in number)
return varchar2
is
d varchar2(100) ;
begin
SELECT col1 into d
from tab1
Where
col2 = in_tanid
AND col3 = 'Y'
AND col4 = in_order ;
return d ;
Exception
WHen No_DATA_FOund then
return 'N' ;
end ;
create or replace procedure proc_generate_view(in_tan varchar2, in_soc varchar2)
is
x varchar2(2000);
v4 varchar2(50) ;
v5 varchar2(50) ;
cnt number ;
begin
v4:= PROC_Caption (in_tan,4) ;
v5:= PROC_Caption (in_tan,5) ;
x := ' Create view v_generate as '
|| ' SELECT a , b, c, d ' ;
if v4 <> 'N' THEN
x := x || ' , ' || PROC_Caption (in_tan,4) || ' as Caption4 ' ;
end if;
if v5 <> 'N' THEN
x := x || ' , ' || PROC_Caption (in_tan,5) || ' as Caption5 ' ;
end if;
x := x || ' FROM tab2 WHERE col1 = ''' || in_socid || ''''
|| ' AND col2 = ''' || in_tan || '''' ;
select count(1) into cnt from USER_OBJECTS where OBJECT_NAME = 'V_GENERATE'
and OBJECT_TYPE = 'VIEW' ;
if cnt > 0 then
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE ' DROP view V_GENERATE' ;
END IF ;
execute immediate x ;
end ;
NOTE:- I have just renamed the table name and column names in order to make it non confedential...
I have created this successfully with actual table name and column names and able to get the result as per my requirement.

Mysterious formatting columns table

Hi all,
i don't post a problem, but a curiosity. I'm managing a Oracle BI environment developed by others, so many aspects are unknown for me. I've observed that if i make an Answers request dragging and dropping any columns from my subject area, any of them are still formatted. In detail, if i drag and drop a column that contains double values it is formatted, otherwise if (from same table) i drag and drop a column that contains integer values it isn't formatted. All columns have same class "TableHdg".
I ask me, where is specified this behaviour? In css style? But how a css style can distinguish between a double and integer values to decide how formatting columns?
Thanks
Giancarlo

Hi,
thanks for your reply. I've formatted hundreds of tables but i've never noted these options. Incredible!!!!!!!!!. Can you tell me, when i click on "Save as the system-wide for this data type" (for example), where Oracle BI saves formatting options? In a css file? What?
Thanks

How to format table column values to currency?

All,
I have bound a context attribute (type - string) to a table column (TextView) which is used to display currency.
It displays the value as 123456789.00
How do I format the value as 123,456,789.00?
Is there any FM available to format?
I don't want to change the above context attribute type to CURR.
Thanks
Thruna

>I don't want to change the above context attribute type to CURR.
Why not? That is the correct thing to do. That way you get formatting, sorting, even the correct decimal position and notation for different currencies and user settings.
If you must go with string for the context attribute then I still assume your source data is type CURR. When you 'move' this content into the string of the context attribute use the WRITE statement. This will format the currency variable for output.

How to get column values on item added event receiver

Hi,
I have two columns in a document library and one is people or group column and the other one is choice column with check boxes.
I want to know how to read column values on Item Added event receiver, so that I can create if statements based on those values.
Thank you,
AA.

Hi AOK2013,
Have you had a look at this Microsoft tutorial: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/gg981880(v=office.14).aspx
Essentially, you want to use the AfterProperties property to access the changed field value.
E.g.
var personvalue = properties.AfterProperties["YourPersonFieldName"]

How to populate values dynamically & allows user to edit some other columns

Hi..I am new to Apex..please help me to sove it out...
I have a scenario like editing the some of the Customer details where as one field is dynamically populating from a different table.
Columns like Include, Frequency, Communication, Address and Exclude has to be displayed in tabular format and data should be stored in a table called "om_customer_catalog ".
In this "Communication " column value is dynamically populating from a table called "om_customer_settings" and the no. of records in the om_customer_settings table may vary time to time as per the settins in the Admin module.
I want the user to edit all details except Communication column for all the rows which is displayed and the no. of rows should be displayed dynamically as per the settings.
how can i achieve this?...which way i need to proceed like whether report kind of thing..or someother way..
hope some reply....
More Column details:
Include - a Check box with editable(values Y or N)
Communication - text field with display only(values like Promotional Email, All Email etc.)
Frequecny - Drop downbox with editable(values Annually/Monthly/Weekly etc)
Address - Drop down with editable(static values like Me, Father, Mother,Brother etc)
Exclude Reason - text field with editable(any text value)
Apply - a button for saving the changes
thanks in advace...
renjish

Hello Renjish,
Solution is quite tricky, You have to make a procedure which select each row of your tabular form and executes the update statement (customized).
e.g
to select each row of table use
begin
FOR I in 1..APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01.COUNT
LOOP
insert into table_name values(APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i),'PENDING',sysdate,'RESOURCE','','','','');
end loop;
end;
here APEX_APPLICATION.G_F01(i) will return the value of the first column of selected row. Pick the values and make a cutomized update command.

How to format the value in narrative ?

Hi Experts,
In BIEE 11,
How to format the value in narrative , such as separator.
In table or pivot property, I have set the separator for measure , but in narrative, the format will be disappeared. So how to implement this requirment?

I had this problem with 11.1.1.6.0
If you want this format as the default display format for this column everywhere, then you can save that format as default display format for the column or data type (Lower right corner of data format tab: "Save as Default" button, "Save as the system-wide default for "Table"."Column"). When I had the problem the narratives did use the default display format.
Another workaround could be a direct database call to convert the data to a string. For example, in Oracle
EVALUATE('TO_CHAR(%1,%2)' AS CHAR(30), “Table".“Column" ,'$9,999.00')
but you may need to set EVALUATE_SUPPORT_LEVEL in your nqsconfig.ini, and this ties you to the database technology.

How can I replace column value with a particular value in SQL

Hi All,
Can anyone please tell me how can I format my output with replacing a column value with a specific value which actually depends on the present value of the column
I am executing the following SQL statement
select state,count(id) from <table_name> where composite_dn= <composite_dn_name> group by state;
My Present output is:
State No.Of Instance
1 3
3 28
I want to replace the value in the column state as follows
State No.OfInstances
Completed 3
Faulted 28
I want "1" to be reppaced by "Completed" and "3" to be replaced by "Faulted"
Is is possible with SQL or PL/SQL , if it is then how can I achieve this required result. Please help!!
Thanks in Advance!!
Edited by: Roshni Shankar on Oct 27, 2012 12:38 AM

Hi Roshni,
I guess this CASE clause can be simulated by a DECODE and also it is very easy to use.
Refer -- http://www.techonthenet.com/oracle/functions/decode.php
select decode(t1.state,t2.state_id,t2.state_name), t1.count_id
from <table_2> t2, (select state,count(id) count_id
from <table_name>
where composite_dn= <composite_dn_name>
group by state) t1
where t1.state = t2.state_id;HTH

HTML code for Column value formating.

Hi All,
We have a requirement that, in a report we have some column values. For one of the column value we need to show that in bold with boarder like
Column1| Column2| Column3.....
Val1 | Val2 | Val3
Val4 | Val5 | Val6_
we want to show val4 column as bold and with boarder, because of some other constraints we have to use pivot table view. How can we achieve that
Thanks in advance.

Criteria tab->Column Properties->Style
For Border you can use Style->Border
You wold have mention entire row instead of vlo4!!
If you have any condition to identify the row then go with conditional format

How to add spaces to the column value to make it up specifi length string please

Hello There,
Could you please guide me here to solve this issue,
in my column (named as State) contains values as below
California
Washington
Utah
Connecticut
Massachusets
in the output how can i add a spaces to make up every column values as 15 length (for ex, Utah is 4 length then need to add 11 spaces, California is 10 would like to add 5 spaces)
i tried below but no use in Sql 2008 R2
SELECT distinct state
state
+SPACE(35-len(state)),
len(state+SPACE(35-len(state)))
FROM dbo.ordersInfo
Thank you in advance
Milan

Fixed length CHAR(n) data in SQL is automatically padded with spaces. Either change the column's data type or cast to it. Also, the ISO-11179 rules are that the column should be "state_name" and not just the root attribute "state" -- state_code, state_population,
etc are a few of the confusions you created.
Another rule of RDBMS is that we do not do display formatting in the data. That is what presentation layers do. Why are you trying to fake COBOL in SQL?

Formating the Row Based on one column value

Hi Friends
I am trying to format the Entire row based on the value of the first column in my Answers.
Example if first column value in 'F' now i want the Entire row to be colored
I can do conditional formating on one column but i want to do it on the entire row
F     8.1 %     12.0 %
E     5.2 %     3.5 %
M     2.3 %     3.3 %
If any one has done this or any suggestions please respond
Thanks
Sang

Its a Pivot View
F 8.1 % 12.0 %
E 5.2 % 3.5 %
M 2.3 % 3.3 %

the column 2 --> 8.1% , 5.2% , 2.3% are the sales in year 2008
the column 3 --> 12.0 % , 3.5 %, 3.3 % are the sales in year 2009
So will i be able to apply the formating in pivot view based on one column to other column If yes please let me know how or

Custom row-fetch and how to get column values from specific row of report

Hi -- I have a case where a table's primary key has more than 3 columns. My report on the
table has links that send the user to a single-row DML form, but of course the automatic
fetch won't work because 1) I can't set more than 3 item values in the link and 2) the
auto fetch only handles 2 PK columns.
1)
I have written a custom fetch (not sure it's the most elegant, see second question) that is working
for 3 or few PK columns (it references the 1-3 item values set in the link), but when there are
more than 3, I don't know how to get the remaining PK column values for the specific row that was
selected in the report. How can I access that row's report column values? I'll be doing it from the
form page, not the report page. (I think... unless you have another suggestion.)
2)
My custom fetch... I just worked something out on my own, having no idea how this is typically
done. For each dependent item (database column) in the form, I have a source of PL/SQL
function that queries the table for the column in question, using the primary key values. It works
beautifully, though is just a touch slow on my prototype table, which has 21 columns. Is there
a way to manually construct the fetch statement once for the whole form, and have APEX be smart
about what items get what
return values, so that I don't have to write PL/SQL for every item? Because my query data sources
are sometimes in remote databases, I have to write manual fetch and dml anyway. Just would like
to streamline the process.
Thanks,
Carol

HI Andy -- Well, I'd love it if this worked, but I'm unsure how to implement it.
It seems I can't put this process in the results page (the page w/ the link, that has multiple report rows), because the link for the row will completely bypass any after-submit processes, won't it? I've tried this in other conditions; I thought the link went directly to the linked-to page.
And, from the test of your suggestion that I've tried, it's not working in the form that allows a single row edit. I tried putting this manually-created fetch into a before header process, and it seems to do nothing (even with a hard-coded PK value, just to test it out). In addition, I'm not sure how, from this page, the process could identify the correct PK values from the report page, unless it can know something about the row that was selected by clicking on the link. It could work if all the PK columns in my edit form could be set by the report link, but sometimes I have up to 5 pk columns.
Maybe part of the problem is something to do with the source type I have for each of the form items. With my first manual fetch process, they were all pl/sql functions. Not sure what would be appropriate if I can somehow do this with a single (page level?) process.
Maybe I'm making this too hard?
Thanks,
Carol

How to get the column values from a BC4J View Table in UIXML?

I am using a default UiXML Application for Order Entry system with Orders & Order Lines & Customers. I have a uix file OrdersView1_View.uix which displays (no updateable columns) all the Orders. How do I get the column value of a selected row in a BC4J Table (example:OrdersId) when a Submit button is pressed using UIXML or Java Classes?
I appreciate any help on this.

Hi,
You need to use keyStamp, an example:
<bc4j table name="orders">
<bc4j:keyStamp>
<bc4j:rowKey name="key" />
</bc4j:keyStamp>
Furthermore, you can automatically send the selected row key using the go event handler, so in the handlers section you could send the key to an orderInfo page:
<event name="show">

<ctrl:go name="orderInfo" redirect="true">
<ctrl:property name="key">
<ctrl:selection name="orders" key="key" />
</ctrl:property>
</ctrl:go>
</event>
