SELECT column_name,
  table_name
   FROM user_tab_cols
  WHERE table_name IN ('<yourtablenamehere>')
AND extractvalue(dbms_xmlgen.getxmltype('select ''Found'' col from '|| table_name ||' where rownum=1 and ' || CASE WHEN data_type IN
      ( SELECT DISTINCT data_type FROM user_tab_cols WHERE data_type NOT LIKE 'TIME%' AND data_type != 'DATE' )
    THEN column_name ELSE 'to_char('||column_name||',''DD-MM-YYYY HH24:MI:ss'')'  END
  ||' = ''<yourcolumnvaluetobefound>'' '),'//COL')='Found';Fill <yourtablenamehere> and <yourcolumnvaluetobefound> in the above query and get the result.

  • How to find last accessed/updated tables and the query text?

    I am using :
    Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
    With the Partitioning option
    JServer Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
    How to find last accessed/updated tables and the query text?
    Regards
    LEE1212

    Check DBA_TBALES view there you find one date column that indicate last update
    One option is as follows:
    (1) Turn the auditing on: AUDIT_TRAIL = true in init.ora
    (2) Restart the instance if its running.
    (3) Audit the table:
         AUDIT INSERT,SELECT,DELETE,UPDATE on TableName
         by ACCESS WHENEVER SUCCESSFUL
    (4) Get the desired information using :
         SELECT OBJ_NAME,ACTION_NAME ,to_char(timestamp,'dd/mm/yyyy , HH:MM:SS')
         from sys.dba_audit_object.

    As you can see the file to which i create and save and open my pdf report is

    The column headers of table in pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp are
    "Reprocessing Date","Patient Name","Dialyzer(Manufacturer,Size)","No.of Reuse","Verification" and
    "DialyzerID".
    However the problem i am facing is after execution and opening of document is my
    column headers in table in pdf report from
    c# and datas in it all appear in bold.
    I have browsed through net regarding to solve this problem but with no success.
    What i want is my pdf report from c# should be similar to following format which i was able to accomplish in vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp.:
    Given below is report which i have achieved from vb6,adodb with MS access using iTextSharp
    I know that there has to be another way to solve my problem.I have browsed many articles in net regarding exporting sql datas to above format but with no success!
    Is there is any another way to solve to my problem on exporting sql datas from c# windows forms using iTextSharp to above format given in the picture/image above?!
    If so Then Can anyone tell me what modifications must i do in my c# code given above so that my pdf report from c# windows forms using iTextSharp will look similar to image/picture(pdf report) which i was able to accomplish from
    vb6,adodb with ms access using iTextSharp?
    I have approached Sound Forge.Net for help but with no success.
    I hope anyone/someone truly understands what i am trying to ask!
    I know i have to do lot of modifications in my c# code to achieve this level of perfection but i dont know how to do it.
    Can anyone help me please! Any help/guidance in solving this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    I hope i get a reply in terms of solving this problem.

  • How to find the count of tables going for fts(full table scan in oracle 10g

    HI
    how to find the count of tables going for fts(full table scan) in oracle 10g
    regards

    Hi,
    Why do you want to 'find' those tables?
    Do you want to 'avoid FTS' on those tables?
    You provide little information here. (Perhaps you just migrated from 9i and having problems with certain queries now?)
    FTS is sometimes the fastest way to retrieve data, and sometimes an index scan is.
    http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/asktom/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:9422487749968
    There's no 'FTS view' available, if you want to know what happens on your DB you need, like Anand already said, to trace sessions that 'worry you'.

    Can anybody please help me!!

    Yes, permissions are very important. I ran into a similar problem because I didn't have the correct permissions. Make sure the user has the following permissions:
    CREATE ANY TABLE
    ALTER ANY TABLE
    DROP ANY TABLE
    CREATE ANY PROCEDURE
    EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
    DROP ANY PROCEDURE
    Also, make sure there is enough space in the default tablespace of that user.

  • How to find the average of table row values it should display in next row in libwindow/​CVI

    Hi,
    How to find the average of table row values it should display in next row in libwindow/CVI
    Please let me know the solution.

    There isn't a built-in function to perform calculations on thable cells. What you can do is to retrieve thable cells values and calculate the average by yourself.
    To retrieve a bunch of cells in a single instruction you can use GetTableCellRangeVals: prerequisite for this function to work correctly is that cells are all included in a Rect structure (shortly, a rectangle) and are all of the same data type. See the help for the function for some explanations and the link to an example of its usage. In Cell range parameter you can pass VAL_TABLE_ROW_RANGE (row) macro to retrieve an entire row. See here for details.
    Once you have retrieved cell values in an array, you can pass it to Mean function to calculate the average.
    Proud to use LW/CVI from 3.1 on.
