How to query the substrings of a given word?

Hi there,
I'm trying to make a query that would match all the roes where the value of a column of type varchar2 would be a substring of a given string. Something like
select stringcolumn from tabletest
where 'stringcolumn%' like 'test';
this would return
teste111
testtest
testgpiutgi
testjhlhh
Any sugestion?
Thanks,
Andre

Hi,
The query you mentioned is wrong and correct query is as follows:
select stringcolumn from tabletest
where stringcolumn like 'test%';
Now this query gives all those columns which begins with test.

  • How to query the flat files?

    Hi
    How to query the flat files that are used in Etl From EBS source.

    That can be done in OBIEE. Save the flat file as .csv format. Then go to ODBC Administrator on windows machine where you BI server is running, and create an System DSN and select "Microsft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)" as driver type.
    Next, import tables in RPD using this ODBC connection. Rest of the steps as same as building model from a table source.
    Hope this helps.

  • How to get the current cursor position in word report?

    I am generating a word report. But I would like to keep the table in one page. However, I did not find the way to do it in labview. Somebody would give me some suggestions? I appreciate a lot.
    One way I think I can do is to find the current cursor position. Since I know the table size so I can figure out if the left space in the current page is enough to hold the table. But I do not know how to locate the curent cursor position in word document in labview programmatically. I appreciate any suggestions on this question.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    when you insert data in a word document you have to refer to bookmarks rather than cursor position.
    If you are using the Report Generation Toolkit for Office it is explained in the manual chapter 3-1.
    See also the example: Generate Report From Template (Word).vi included in the toolkit.
    If you aren't using the toolkit, you still have to refer to bookmark as reference points to insert and/or fetch data.
    The principle is:
    - First create a document in which you insert bookmarks where you wish and save it as a template
    - In LV open your template document and insert in it your data referring to bookmarks as insertion points
    - At the end save your report with another name, so you still have the template
    I hope I have been clear enough, if not just as
    k!
    Good luck,

  • How usnig manuplate the Import and export Key word.

    How usnig manuplate the Import and export Key word? and
    how do the clear of those variable?

    HI ,
    For IMPORT Keyword :---
    To retrieve data from the global memory area, use the IMPORT statement.  The most basic form of the IMPORT statement is:
    IMPORT <variable> FROM MEMORY.
    To give the variable a different name in your program from what it is called in the global memory area, use the TO clause.  You must define the local variable name with a DATA statement in your program.  The format is:
    IMPORT <global var> TO <program var> FROM MEMORY.
    As with the EXPORT statement, you can specify multiple variables per statement, and you have the option of specifying which cluster ID you wish to import from.
    After each IMPORT statement, SY-SUBRC is set to indicate whether or not the cluster ID you specified exists (but not whether specific variables were imported specifically).  SY-SUBRC is zero if the cluster exists.
    It is also possible to IMPORT and EXPORT to database tables .
    ABAP memory that is used to store exported data is user and transaction specific, so when passing data between programs in this manner you must make sure that transaction boundaries are not crossed. Otherwise the contents of this memory will get destroyed and will not be available to the importing program.
    For Export Keyword :---
    The EXPORT statement moves data from your program into a global memory area.  The most basic form of the EXPORT statement is:
    EXPORT <variable> TO MEMORY.
    This places the specified variable into a global memory area that another program can later read using the IMPORT statement.
    You may specify multiple fields in the same EXPORT statement.  For example:
    EXPORT KNA1-KUNNR KNA1-BUKRS TO MEMORY.
    You can give variables a different name in the global memory area using the FROM clause.  For example, the following code exports SY-SUBRC and gives it the name RETVAL in the global memory area:
    EXPORT RETVAL FROM SY-SUBRC TO MEMORY.
    You can specify a cluster ID when exporting data to memory.  You can freely choose the name of the cluster ID, which can be up to 32 characters long.  Each cluster ID specifies a particular area in memory.  Each time you EXPORT data to the same cluster ID, all data previously written to that ID is erased.  For example:
    EXPORT SY-SUBRC TO MEMORY ID u2018LJS1u2019.
    Hope u understand

    Once again, I do not think that you can solve the problem you are trying to solve. Fundamentally you need to determine for a given element of a given complex type what are it's child elements. For each of those elements you then need to find out whether or not it in turn has child elements...
    Then you have to think about elements defined as ref rather than type, elements that are substituteable, and the rest of possibilities that can be described with XML Schema.
    If you can solve that problem you're a better man than I as the saying goes. Anyone rather than give you a fish, I'll show you how to at least put a worm on the hook..
    The following query gets the names of the elements inside a each of the global complex types

  • How to query the database in an Entity Object (EO)

    I am using JDeveloper 11.1.2.2.0
    I am Forms developer working in a new ADF project and need some help from the ADF gurus, I am just a ADF beginner.
    Maybe hits question has a easy solution, but I don't know how to implement this:
    I have simplified my scenario, but this is what I Need to do:
    One database table DBTABLE with 3 columns (C1,N1,D1) C1-varchar2; N1-Numeric; D1-Date.
    In the DBTABLE I have the following data:
    ONE; 10; 01/10/2012
    ONE; 20; 02/10/2012
    TWO; 15; 02/10/2012
    ONE; 15; 03/10/2012
    I have created an ADF EO for the DBTABLE with all 3 attributes, then I have created another transient numeric attribute T1.
    My requirement is when I create a new record and set attribute C1=ONE the transient attribute T1 should show sum(N1) from DBTABLE where D1>= 01/10/2012 and D1 < 03/10/2012.
    In this case when I create a new record should the shown in T1 a total of 10+20 = 30.
    I know how to use the EOImpl getters and setters, and how to set the T1 attribute when C1 is set. My problem is how to calculate the total T1.
    How can I implement this in ADF? It is possible to implement this in the EO? It is possible to make the query select sum(N1) from DBTABLE where D1>= 01/10/2012 and D1 < 03/10/2012 and return the value to the EO attribute?
    Thank you in advance

    Hi Peter
    Thank you for your suggestions, both of them are interesting but unfortunately they do not solve my problem, or at least I don’t know how.
    I will try to better explain my problem
    I have te table DBTABLE and another related table called DBDATES with colums(C1,DT1,DT2,TARGET) where I record periods of time and desired target. For instance my DBDATES table could have the following records
    ONE; 01/01/2012; 31/01/2012; 100
    ONE; 01/02/2012; 29/02/2012; 90
    ONE; 01/03/2012; 31/03/2012; 95
    TWO; 01/01/2012; 31/01/2012; 140
    Exist a FK between both tables in the C1 column.
    I have created an EO for the table DBTABLE with the tree persistent attributes (C1, N1, D1) an transient attribute (T1). The (C1,D1) is my DB primary key.
    When I create a new record in the DBTABLE and based in the actual date I need to query the DBDATES table to check which is my TARGET and the valid target dates. For Instance if a record for person ONE is created on February 12, my TARGET is 90 from 01/02/2012 to 29/02/2012.
    At the same moment I need to check the total amount of items record to the person ONE during the full target period.
    Select sum(N1)
    From DBTABLE
    Where D1 between V2 and V3
    And C1= V1;
    Bind variables:
    V1 = ‘ONE’;
    V2 = ‘01/10/2012’ – queried from DBDATES
    V3 = ‘03/10/201’ – queried from DBDATES
    In resume, for a determined person when I create a new record in the DBTABLE I need to know their target for the actual period and how much as been record until now.
    I don't know if is possible to solve this without using the View Objects, because I need to query the DBTABLE for a time frame and with bind variables.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

  • How to query the master block based on one of the values in detail block

    Hi,
    In version 6i forms, I have a field in data block which is not set as a database item. I am using that field to store a value from detail block. If I want to query the form using that field (which represents one of the values from detail block), how do I do that? Any pointers?
    TIA,

    Do you want to query a master, which contains a specific detail? If so, here's an example how you could do it with a PRE-QUERY-trigger:
    DECLARE
      vcQuery VARCHAR2(4000);
    BEGIN
      IF :MASTERBLOCK.THE_DETAIL_SEARCH_ITEM IS NOT NULL THEN
        -- Build up an exists Sub-Query
        vcQuery:=' MASTERBLOCKID IN (SELECT FK_TO_MASTERBLOCK FROM DETAILTABLE WHERE DETAIL_COLUMN=''' || :MASTERBLOCK.THE_DETAIL_SEARCH_ITEM|| ''')';
      END IF;
      SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY('MASTERBLOCK', DEFAULT_WHERE, vcQuery);

    What is your DB? Or how is exactly you execute the sql.
    to_date is anyway an Oracle syntax.
    So I guess your DB might be an SQL Server.
    to_date for oracle is equivalent as Convert in SQL Server
    example Select Convert(datetime ,'2002/01/01')
    Hope it works nowBad idea. See reply 1.

  • How to calculate the size of DB given the transaction and the INVT

    Hi,
    I need to know the size of a database

    Total Items=12,200
    We are preparing for a proposal .The above is the descriptions given by the client.
    How to estimate the size of database We need to design a hardware configuration
    Can anyone help me
    Maran.

    Any clue regarding the size of the row in the 900 transactions per day?
    Will there be a single table updated per transaction or multiple tables?
    Will the transaction be of type insert mostly?
    If it is going to be insert only, then probably you can estimate the database size based on size of row * 900 transactions per day... You need to consider if there will be other tables affected via triggers.
    Also, the size of the indexes defined on these tables will contribute to the database size.
    No idea as to what do you mean by 12,200 items.

    Srinivas

    Hello,
    Still you have not told that whether Position id is there in listB or not. Anyway if Poistion id is not there in list B then you have to use Title column of listA to gete data from ListB. Look at sample code below. It will first get data from ListA,
    and use StringBuilder class to create dynamic CAML query because one Position id is having multiple values in listA.
    query.Query = "<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Postionid' /><Value Type='Lookup'>1</Value></Eq></Where>";
    SPListItemCollection items = list.GetItems(query);
    if(items.Count > 0)
    foreach(SPListItem item in items)
    string strTitle = Convert.Tostring(item["Title"]);
    //since listA is having multiple values for Postionid so you have to build a dynamic query here to get data from listB
    //Refer link to build dynamic query
    SPQuery listB = new SPQuery ();
    query.Query = stringbuilder;
    SPListItemCollection ListBitems = listB.GetItems(query);
