Hi,
I tested something similar with insert into select and it worked fine :
insert into t_countries(ID,CITY ,POPULATION, DESCRIPTION, located, insdate )
SELECT 1 id, city, o , city||' is a nice city' description, max(nvl(locatedAt,'unknown')) as located,
SYSTIMESTAMP
FROM TABLE(SEM_MATCH(

Or with execute immediate :

How Can insert the records into Excel_sheet by using SQL Task-SSIS ?

As per requirement ,
insert the records in excel sheet(DT) by using SQL Task-SSIS .
I used SQL query in SQL Task-SSIS:
e.g.., INSERT INTO [DT$B1:B1] VALUES ('COMMM')
but error:Executing the query "INSERT INTO [DT$B1:B1] VALUES ('COMMM') " failed with the following error: "This table contains cells that are outside the range of cells defined in this spreadsheet.". Possible failure reasons: Problems
with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
Please any suggestion ...
-MADHU

then first create a table inside Excel sheet based on your source data. You can Execute sql task for that using excel connection. then use insert to populate it
see an example here where I create a dynamic sheet using execute sql task

Is there a need to use dynamic sql here?
at the very least, try using bind variables instead of concatenating values like that.

Your PL/SQL seems reasonable.
My suspicion would be that the oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor class only supports persistent collection types, i.e. those declared at the schema level with CREATE TYPE.

If Both tables having References then how to insert the data each other

Hai EveryOne..,
My Sample data.,
Create table emp (empno number primary key,ename varchar2(20));
Create table emp_dup (empno number references emp(empno),ename varchar2(20) primary key);
alter table emp add constraint ename_fk foreign key(ename) references emp(ename);
My Question is How to insert the data into these two tables?
Its a *"Circular Reference"* Concept.
Please ...
Thank You!!

You need to set the DEFERRED clause of the constraint when you create your foreign key as DEFERRABLE by which you can move the constraint validation at transaction level.
In an interview point of view that could be a reasonable answer. But in real time this could be strongly questionable.
Here is an example
SQL> create table emp1 (empno number, ename varchar2(10))
2 /
Table created.
SQL> create table emp2 (empno number, ename varchar2(10))
2 /
Table created. Define Primary Key for two tables
SQL> alter table emp1 add constraint emp1_pk primary key (empno)
2 /
Table altered.
SQL> alter table emp2 add constraint emp2_pk primary key (ename)
2 /
Table altered. Add foreign key for two tables with DEFERRED clause set as DEFERRABLE
SQL> alter table emp1 add constraint emp1_fk foreign key (ename) references emp2(ename) initially deferred deferrable
2 /
Table altered.
SQL> alter table emp2 add constraint emp2_fk foreign key (empno) references emp1(empno) initially deferred deferrable
2 /
Table altered. Now here is the test case
SQL> insert into emp1 values (1, 'karthick')
2 /
1 row created.
SQL> commit
2 /
commit
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-02091: transaction rolled back
ORA-02291: integrity constraint (ARBORU.EMP1_FK) violated - parent key not found So the validation is done at Transaction level. Now let insert the value into both tables.
SQL> insert into emp1 values (1, 'karthick')
2 /
1 row created.
SQL> insert into emp2 values (1, 'karthick')
2 /
1 row created.
SQL> commit
2 /
Commit complete.

How to insert a photo into a film strip theme

I am making a imovie with a lot of pictures and few videos but I was wondering how to insert the pictures into the filmstrip theme. I have seen it done in other peoples movies before i just cant figure it out

Hi Bob,
With titles, all you need to do is drag them directly onto a video clip or still - the Theme will automatically take care of placing the video into the appropriate frames.
Similarly with transitions. Drag the theme transition between 2 clips (video or stills) and the frames will be "populated" automatically. If you now click on the transition, you will see that each frame is numbered, both in the viewer and the timeline. Simply drag the numbers in the timeline to a different position to change the stills in the transition.
Hope I've not misunderstood what you are trying to do!

How to insert the image or logo into the table as a field in webdynpro abap

Hi Friends,
Please tell me how to insert the image or logo into the table as a field in webdynpro abap.........

Hi Alagappan ,
In your view layout you take table UI element and then you bind it with some context nodes.
The attributes of your nodes comes as a field.
Now in these fields you can set various properties and image is one of them.
Go to ->
1. View Layout -> Right Click on ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER -> INSERT ELEMENT -> TABLE
2. Right click on table -> Create Binding.
Here you have to bind it with the appropriate context node.
You will get two properties here
a- Standard Cell Editor :- ( make it image )
b- Standard properties :- ( If required set image properties ).
3. If you want put image from out side then import it as a mime object and set the source of your table field ( used as a image )
also have a look :-
[Image Properties|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/f3/1a61a9dc7f2e4199458e964e76b4ba/content.htm]
Hope this will solve your problem.
Reply if any case of any issue.
Thanks & Regards,

1. SELECT INTO
Below method will create table when data is inserted from one table to another table. Its useful when you need exactly same datatype as source table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Insert data using SELECT INTO
SELECT AddressLine1, City
INTO BothellAddresses
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
GO
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO
2. INSERT INTO SELECT
Below method will need table to be created prior to inserting data. Its really useful when table is already created and you want insert data from
another table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Create Table
CREATE TABLE BothellAddresses (AddressLine1 NVARCHAR(60), City NVARCHAR(30))
---Insert into above table using SELECT
INSERT INTO BothellAddresses(AddressLine1, City)
SELECT AddressLine1, City
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO

What does this mean?
So I browse through forum & i got to know that i need to initial the UTL_FILE_DIR ="C:/OracleProject" in init.ora
So can i edit the init.ora with notepad.When i tried to do that it says permission denied
In my system it shows the init.ora file in path C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\config\scripts
but there is also other file initXETemp in the same path do i need to do the changes in it.
I have tried even editing the SPFILE as mentioned below:
C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\dbs\SPFILEEXE - I had edit this file using notepad & set the value of UTL_FILE_DIR ="C:/OracleProject". So next time when i restarted i'm unable to log on to the database.
So i had reinstall the software again.
Could you please let me know how to proceed..

How do I create a 1d array that takes a single calculation and insert the result into the first row and then the next calculation the next time the loop passes that point and puts the results in thsecond row and so on until the loop is exited.

The attached file is work inprogress, with some dummy data sp that I can test it out without having to connect to equipment.
The second tab is the one that I am having the problem with. the output array from the replace element appears to be starting at the index position of 1 rather than 0 but that is ok it is still show that the new data is placed in incrementing element locations. However the main array that I am trying to build that is suppose to take each new calculation and place it in the next index(row) does not ap
pear to be working or at least I am not getting any indication on the inidcator.
Basically what I am attempting to do is is gather some pulses from adevice for a minute, place the results for a calculation, so that it displays then do the same again the next minute, but put these result in the next row and so on until the specifiied time has expired and the loop exits. I need to have all results displayed and keep building the array(display until, the end of the test)Eventually I will have to include a min max section that displays the min and max values calculated, but that should be easy with the min max function.Actually I thought this should have been easy but, I gues I can not see the forest through the trees. Can any one help to slear this up for me.

I didn't really have time to dig in and understand your program in depth,
but I have a few tips for you that might things a bit easier:
- You use local variables excessively which really complicates things. Try
not to use them and it will make your life easier.
- If you flowchart the design (very similar to a dataflow diagram, keep in
mind!) you want to gather data, calculate a value from that data, store the
calculation in an array, and loop while the time is in a certain range. So
theres really not much need for a sequence as long as you get rid of the
local variables (sequences also complicate things)
- You loop again if timepassed+1 is still less than some constant. Rather
than messing with locals it seems so much easier to use a shiftregister (if
absolutely necessary) or in this case base it upon the number of iterations
of the loop. In this case it looks like "time passed" is the same thing as
the number of loop iterations, but I didn't check closely. There's an i
terminal in your whileloop to read for the number of iterations.
- After having simplified your design by eliminating unnecessary sequence
and local variables, you should be able to draw out the labview diagram.
Don't try to use the "insert into array" vis since theres no need. Each
iteration of your loop calculates a number which goes into the next position
of the array right? Pass your result outside the loop, and enable indexing
on the terminal so Labview automatically generates the array for you. If
your calculation is a function of previous data, then use a shift register
to keep previous values around.
I wish you luck. Post again if you have any questions. Without a more
detailed understanding of your task at hand it's kind of hard to post actual
code suggestions for you.

Insert the data into two tables at a time.

Hi ,
i have these two tables
create table [dbo].[test1](
[test1_id] [int] identity(1,1) primary key,
[test2_id] [int] not null
create table [dbo].[test2](
[test2_id] [int] identity(1,1) primary key,
[test1_id] [int] not null
alter table [dbo].[test1]
add constraint [fk_test1_test2_id] foreign key([test2_id])
references [dbo].[test2] ([test2_id])
alter table [dbo].[test2] add constraint [fk_test2_test2_id] foreign key([test1_id])
references [dbo].[test1] ([test1_id])
I want to insert the data into two tables in one insert statement. How can i do this using T-SQL ?
Thanks in advance.

You can INSERT into both tables within one Transaction but not in one statement. By the way, you would need to alter your dbo.Test1 table to allow null for first INSERT test2_id column
See sample code below:
CREATE TABLE #test1(test1_ID INT IDENTITY(1,1),test2_id INT NULL)
CREATE TABLE #test2(test2_ID INT IDENTITY(1,1),test1_ID INT)
DECLARE @Test1dentity INT
DECLARE @Test2dentity INT
BEGIN TRAN
-- Insert NULL as test2_ID value is unknown
INSERT INTO #test1(test2_ID)
SELECT NULL;
-- get inserted identity value
SET @Test1dentity = SCOPE_IDENTITY();
INSERT INTO #test2(test1_ID)
SELECT @Test1dentity;
-- get inserted identity value
SET @Test2dentity = SCOPE_IDENTITY();
-- Update test1 table
UPDATE #test1
SET test2_ID = @Test2dentity
WHERE test1_ID = @Test1dentity;
COMMIT
SELECT * FROM #test1;
SELECT * FROM #test2;
-- Drop temp tables
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#test1') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
DROP TABLE #test1
END
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#test2') IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
DROP TABLE #test2
END

Search in Nested Tables and Insert the result into new Nested Table!

How can I search in Nested Tables ex: (pr_travel_date_range,pr_bo_arr) using the SQL below and insert the result into a new Nested Table: ex:g_splited_range_arr.
Here are the DDL and DML SQLs;
Don't worry about the NUMBER( 8 )
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE DATE_RANGE IS OBJECT ( start_date NUMBER( 8 ), end_date NUMBER( 8 ) );
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE DATE_RANGE_ARR IS TABLE OF DATE_RANGE;
DECLARE
   g_splited_range_arr   DATE_RANGE_ARR := DATE_RANGE_ARR( );
   g_travel_range        DATE_RANGE := DATE_RANGE( '20110101', '99991231' );
   g_bo_arr              DATE_RANGE_ARR := DATE_RANGE_ARR( DATE_RANGE( '20110312', '20110317' ), DATE_RANGE( '20110315', '20110329' ) );
   FUNCTION split_date_sql( pr_travel_date_range    DATE_RANGE,
                            pr_bo_arr               DATE_RANGE_ARR )
      RETURN DATE_RANGE_ARR
   IS
      l_splited_range_arr   DATE_RANGE_ARR;
   BEGIN
      SELECT start_date, end_date
        INTO l_splited_range_arr(start_date, end_date)
        FROM (WITH all_dates
                      AS (SELECT tr_start_date AS a_date, 0 AS black_out_val FROM TABLE( pr_travel_date_range )
                          UNION ALL
                          SELECT tr_end_date, 0 FROM TABLE( pr_travel_date_range )
                          UNION ALL
                          SELECT bo_start_date - 1, 1 FROM TABLE( pr_bo_arr )
                          UNION ALL
                          SELECT bo_end_date + 1, -1 FROM TABLE( pr_bo_arr )),
                   got_analytics
                      AS (SELECT a_date AS start_date,
                                 LEAD( a_date ) OVER (ORDER BY a_date, black_out_val) AS end_date,
                                 SUM( black_out_val ) OVER (ORDER BY a_date, black_out_val) AS black_out_cnt
                            FROM all_dates)
                SELECT start_date, end_date
                  FROM got_analytics
                 WHERE black_out_cnt = 0 AND start_date < end_date
              ORDER BY start_date);
      RETURN l_splited_range_arr;
   END;
BEGIN
    g_splited_range_arr := split_date_sql(g_travel_range,g_bo_arr);
    FOR index_g_splited_range_arr IN g_splited_range_arr .FIRST .. g_splited_range_arr .LAST LOOP
        DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE('g_splited_range_arr[' || index_g_splited_range_arr || ']: ' || g_splited_range_arr(index_g_splited_range_arr).start_date || '-' || g_splited_range_arr(index_g_splited_range_arr).end_date );
    END LOOP;
EXCEPTION
   WHEN NO_DATA_FOUND
   THEN
      NULL;
   WHEN OTHERS
   THEN
      NULL;
END;Or can I create a VIEW with parameters of Nested Tables in it so I can simply call
SELECT *
BULK COLLECT INTO g_splited_range_arr
FROM view_split_date(g_travel_range,g_bo_arr);

@riedelme
For your questions:
1) I don't want to store in the database as a nested table
2) I don't want to retrieve data from the database. Data will come from function split_date() parameter and data will be processed in the function and function will return it in nested table format. For more detail please look at the raw function SQL.
I have a SQL like:
WITH all_dates
        AS (SELECT tr_start_date AS a_date, 0 AS black_out_val FROM travel
            UNION ALL
            SELECT tr_end_date, 0 FROM travel
            UNION ALL
            SELECT bo_start_date - 1, 1 FROM black_out_dates
            UNION ALL
            SELECT bo_end_date + 1, -1 FROM black_out_dates),
     got_analytics
        AS (SELECT a_date AS start_date,
                   LEAD( a_date ) OVER (ORDER BY a_date, black_out_val)
                      AS end_date,
                   SUM( black_out_val ) OVER (ORDER BY a_date, black_out_val)
                      AS black_out_cnt
              FROM all_dates)
SELECT start_date, end_date
    FROM got_analytics
   WHERE black_out_cnt = 0 AND start_date < end_date
ORDER BY start_date;I want to change the tables black_out_dates and travel to Nested Array so I can use it in a function with Nested Array travel and Nested Array black_out_dates parameters and the function will return Nested Array of date ranges.
Here is what I want in raw SQL:
    DECLARE
       g_splited_range_arr   DATE_RANGE_ARR := DATE_RANGE_ARR( );
       g_travel_range        DATE_RANGE := DATE_RANGE( '20110101', '99991231' );
       g_bo_arr              DATE_RANGE_ARR := DATE_RANGE_ARR( DATE_RANGE( '20110312', '20110317' ), DATE_RANGE( '20110315', '20110329' ) );
       FUNCTION split_date_sql( pr_travel_date_range    DATE_RANGE,
                                pr_bo_arr               DATE_RANGE_ARR )
          RETURN DATE_RANGE_ARR
       IS
          l_splited_range_arr   DATE_RANGE_ARR;
       BEGIN
          SELECT start_date, end_date
            INTO l_splited_range_arr(start_date, end_date)
