How to Display Query Results in a Max Width Formatted Way?

Hi,
I want to run a query to show the columns within headers to be formatted in a way that looks equal in width. I just want to get the max width for each column and display each item in a max width format in a query. Thanks.
Ex.
First Name Last Name City
John Sumi New York
Jay Heely Texas

if you are spooling a file on sql*plus use the column formatting method.
syntax:
COL <column_name> FORMAT a<integer>example:
COL emp_name FORMAT a40

You could use the function queryAddColumn to add the numbers as a separate column to the query.
Let us suppose the name of the query is "myQuery". Then you could proceed as follows

<cfset staticList = "11,12,32,15,36,13,23,14,33,16,44,31,17,34,18">

<cfset staticNrArray = ArrayNew(1)>
<cfset staticNrArray = listToArray(staticList)>

<cfset nColumnNumber = QueryAddColumn(myQuery, "staticNr", "integer", staticNrArray)>

<cfdump var="#myQuery#">
The list I have given here has 15 numbers. This will naturally instruct ColdFusion to add a new column named staticNr, having 15 rows. You might like to know that the queryAddColumn function enables padding.
Here is how it works. Suppose that the query originally had only 8 rows before you added the column(of 15 rows). Then, in the new query, ColdFusion would pad the last 7 rows of the other columns with null values. If the original query had 20 rows instead, then Coldfusion would pad the last 5 rows corresponding to the staticNr-column with null values.

How to display query results in windows side by side in Access 2010

In Access 2010 - when I open a query the result is desplayed in a tab.
When I open a new query - a new tab is created - now in front of the other tab.
I would like to see both queries at the same time.
How is that done?

Select File > Options.
Click 'Current Database' in the navigation pane on the left.
Under 'Document window options', select 'Overlapping Windows'.
Click OK, then close and reopen the database.

SSMS Addin - How To Access Query Results Grid

Hi,
I want to access Query Result Grid(Results) in SSMS addin but I did'nt found anything.
How can I access Query Result Grid, Rows, Columns and Cells when I executed a script?
Thanks.

SQL Server Management Studio currently supports query execution results to be displayed in three different ways: Results to Grid,
Results to Text and Results to File.
By default SQL Server Management Studio is configured to display query results in
Grid format. If you want to change the default to some other option follow these steps.
1. In SQL Server Management Studio, under Tools menu, click
Options as shown in the snippet below.
2. In the Options dialog box, expand Query Results, expand
SQL Server and then select General as shown in the snippet below. In the right side panel choose one of the three options shown below in the
Default Destination for results drop down list and click
OK to save the changes as shown in the snippet below. The changes will go into effect once you open a New Query window.
Query Result Options for Results to Text
In this format you have the option to display the results in a different tab as well as setting different output options.
In the Options dialog box, expand Query Results, expand
SQL Server and then select Results to Text tab as shown in the snippet below. In the right side panel first select the checkbox for
Display results in a separate tab and then select the checkbox for
Switch to results tab after the query executes and then click
OK. If you would like to also display the column name in the result set then choose the option Include column headers in the result set
as shown in the snippet below.
The options you can use in the Text format are:
Output format: - In the above snippet you could see that by default the output is displayed as columns aligned. Some of the other options that are available are Comma Delimited,
Tab Delimited, Space Delimited and Custom Delimited. If you choose the Custom Delimited option in the Output format drop down list then you need to specify a character of your choice for the delimiter in the
Custom delimiter text box.
Include column headers when copying or saving the results: - If this option is selected, then whenever the results are copied to clipboard or it is saved to a file the column headers are also copied along with the results.
Include the query in the result set: - The text of the query is displayed as part of query output under the messages tab.
Scroll as results are received: - If this option is selected, then the display focuses on the most recently returned records at the end of the results set.
Right align numeric values: - If this option is selected, then numeric values will be aligned to the right of the column.
Discard results after query executes: - If this option is selected, then the query results are not displayed in the reviewing pane.
Display results in a separate tab: - If this option is selected, then the result set after query execution will be displayed in a new tab instead of at the bottom of the query window.
Switch to results tab after the query executes: - If this option is selected, then after the query execution the screen focus will be set to the results tab.
Maximum number of characters displayed in each column: - This sets the maximum characters to display for any one column. So if you have a column that is 500 characters this will only show the first 256 if you keep the default setting.

How to display the results in order by based on search value

Hi All,
how to display the results in the below order.
CREATE TABLE TEST( SONGID NUMBER, TITLE   VARCHAR2(200))
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (10,'AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA)');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (11,'CICCONE, MADONNA (CA)');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (12,'DALLIN, MADONNA LOUISE/STOCK');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (13,'MADONNA');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (14,'MADONNA (A)/ AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (C)');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (15,'MADONNA (CA)');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (16,'MIRWAIS AHMADZAI, MADONNA');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (17,'MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA),AHMADZAI');
INSERT INTO TEST(SONGID,TITLE) VALUES (18,'MADONNA (CA),CICCONE');
SELECT *FROM TEST WHERE INSTR (TITLE, 'MADONNA') > 0
output:
SONGID     TITLE
10     AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA)
11     CICCONE, MADONNA (CA)
12     DALLIN, MADONNA LOUISE/STOCK
13     MADONNA
14     MADONNA (A)/ AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (C)
15     MADONNA (CA)
16     MIRWAIS AHMADZAI, MADONNA
17     MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA),AHMADZAI
18     MADONNA (CA),CICCONE
Expected output :
13     MADONNA
14     MADONNA (A)/ AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (C)
15     MADONNA (CA)
18     MADONNA (CA),CICCONE
...if user searches with 'MADONNA' , I have to display the results like title starts with 'MADONNA' first then rest of the records.
Please let me know is it possible to display the results in that order.
Regards,
Rajasekhar

This may be a bit more accurate:
SQL> SELECT *
2 FROM   TEST
3 WHERE INSTR (TITLE, 'MADONNA') > 0
4 ORDER BY INSTR (TITLE, 'MADONNA')
5           ,TITLE
6 ;
              SONGID TITLE
                  13 MADONNA
                  14 MADONNA (A)/ AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (C)
                  15 MADONNA (CA)
                  18 MADONNA (CA),CICCONE
                  12 DALLIN, MADONNA LOUISE/STOCK
                  11 CICCONE, MADONNA (CA)
                  17 MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA),AHMADZAI
                  16 MIRWAIS AHMADZAI, MADONNA
                  10 AHMADZAI, MIRWAIS (CA)/ MADONNA (CA)

set linesize 4000
set feedback off
set verify off
set trimespace on
set colsep ","
spool output.txt
select * from dual (or whatever you are querying

Do you really need an Excel file (binary) or a simple CSV?
If you just need a CSV then search for DUMP_CSV at http://asktom.oracle.com or at this forum

How to Display Query Variables in Text Titles?

Hi experts,
I have created a web template that has a query parameter screen and then displays the results in the form of charts and tables.
My question is how do I display the parameters entered by the user in a chart title?
For example if the user enters a date range of ISO Week 19 to 23, I want to display the chart title as: "Report Results - Week 19 to 23".
I also want to do the same for a general title. I've tried using information fields, but they don't allow me to add additional text.
Maybe I need to use some java script to get the parameter value?
Keep in mind I am just starting out with this and I am using BW7.0 with the WAD.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Thanks for your response.
I think you are referring to 3.5? Maybe 7.0 handles it differently?
I've tried entering free text and then putting in a text web item that is hooked up to a data provider with a characteristic but that only prints out the characteristic header and not the actual value selected by the user.
For example, I have the following:
Report for week <text web item>
Returns:
Report for week ISO Week
I would like it to return:
Report for week 19
Thoughts?

Trying to display query results in 2 columns

I am trying modify someone elses existing code to display the
results of a query in 2 columns on a web page.
The result of the existing code can be seen

Below is the code that I am trying to modify
<table width="95%" border="0" align="center"

<cfif breaker EQUAL 2>
<cfbreak>
</cfif>
</cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</tr>
</cfloop>
</table>
The results of this modified code can be see
Here
as you can see what I have done gives the correct number of
columns (2)
and the correct number of rows for the quantity of data (3)
however each row shows only the first 2 pieces of data
returned by the query
Can I modify the query output so that it returns pieces of
data off set by the amount of data already output?
if so how?

Right off the bat, you have 2 loops and I cant see why...
So what is happening, is the outer loop is going 3 times...
for 3 rows, then your inside loop is showing the first record, the
Breaker var is breakign out of this loop after one row is shown.
Then the main loop says do it again...
You don't need nested loops to accomplish this, I dont
understand why you would think of needing that...
Looking at your code, just get rid of the outer loop... there
is no need for it. You are already looping around the query object
in the inner loop, thats all you need...
Heres some psudeo code to help you out...
loop around query maximum of 6 rows
-- display data
-- if recordcount EQ 2 or recordcount EQ 4 then
----- </tr><tr> 
end loop
