How to refer a column name in form report

Hi,
How can i refer a column name in the form report. My issue is that " I have a form report in that i have column name when i use to click the column name it should bring me to next page with the corresponding values of the column."
Here i have achieved that when i click on column name(in Page1) it brings me to next page(Page2). but in the next page(P2) i want to display(only display) the corresponding values of the selected column(Page1) but the values should not be editable and should not be in text field it should be in display only field.
So how can i write a sql query in display only souce field. Ie, how can i refer the column name in(page1) form report.

Hi Karthik
Very good morning.
I think u have column link in the first page and when u select a data in the first page and when u r moving to the next page the the corresponding data need to there is it correct.
For example You have table Employee and u have a select list in the first page contains name of the employee when u select one name and corresponding datas of the employee need to be in the second page.
So Dont clear the cache of the first page.
I the next page make the page items as display only and give the source of the all items a returning the single sql query.
If u have four items in the next page namely p2_sal, P2emp_no etc..
Then use like this
select sal from emp where emp_name=:P1_EMPNAME
Hopes this might helps you.
Thanks & Regards

How to use the column names generated from Dynamic SQL

Hi,
I have a problem with Dynamic SQL.
I have written an SQL which will dynamically generate the Select statement with from and where clause in it.
But that select statement when executed will get me hundreds of rows and i want to insert each row separately into one more table.
For that i have used a ref cursor to open and insert the table.
In the select list the column names will also be as follows: COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3,....COLUMNn
Please find below the sample code:
TYPE ref_csr IS REF CURSOR;
insert_csr ref_csr;
v_select VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
v_table VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
v_where VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
v_ins_tab VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
v_insert VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
v_ins_query VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
OPEN insert_csr FOR CASE
WHEN v_where IS NOT NULL
THEN 'SELECT '
|| v_select
|| ' FROM '
|| v_table
|| v_where
|| ';'
ELSE 'SELECT ' || v_select || ' FROM ' || v_table || ';'
END;
LOOP
v_ins_query :=
'INSERT INTO '
|| v_ins_tab
|| '('
|| v_insert
|| ') VALUES ('
|| How to fetch the column names here
|| ');';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_ins_query;
END LOOP;
Please help me out with the above problem.

I Built the statement as required but i need the column list because the first column value of each row should be inserted into one more table.
So i was asking how to fetch the column list in a ref cursor so that value can be inserted in one more table.

Then add a RETURNING INTO clause to the query to have Oracle return the first column values into a collection.

Hi,
What version of oracle are you using? If it is 9i,
then you can the command
alter table <table_name> rename column <column_name> to <new_column>;
if it is 8i or earlier, you can create a view with the required names.

Always post the oracle version and the platform you are using to get better response.

How to pull only column names from a SELECT query without running it

How to pull only column names from a SELECT statement without executing it? It seems there is getMetaData() in Java to pull the column names while sql is being prepared and before it gets executed. I need to get the columns whether we run the sql or not.

Maybe something like this is what you are looking for or at least will give you some ideas.

How to rename a column name in a table? Thanks first!

I tried to drop a column age from table student by writing the
following in the sql plus environment as :
SQL> alter table student drop column age ;
but I found the following error
ORA-00905: 缺少关键字 (Lack of Key word)
I have oracle enterprise edition 8.0.5 installed at windows 2000
thank you
And I want to know how to rename a column name in a table?
thanks

In Oracle 8i, your syntax would have worked. However, if I
recall correctly, in Oracle 8.0, you can't rename or drop a
column directly. One way to get around that problem is to
create another table based on a select statement from your
original table, providing the new column name as an alias if you
want to change the column name, or omitting that column from the
select statement if you just want to drop it. Then drop the
original table. Then re-create the original table based on a
select statement from the other table. Then you can drop the
other table. Here is an example:
CREATE TABLE temporary_table_name
AS
SELECT age AS new_column_name,
       other_columns
FROM   student
DROP TABLE student
CREATE TABLE student
AS
SELECT *
FROM   temporary_table_name
DROP TABLE temporary_table_name
Something that you need to consider before doing this is
dependencies. You need to make a list of all your dependecies
before you do this, so that you can re-create them afterwards.
If there are a lot of them, it might be worthwhile to do
something else, like creating a view with an alias for the
column or just providing an alias in a select. It depends on
what you need the different column name for.

How to refer a column value of a single row in conditional column display?

Hello,
does anybody have an idea, how i can refer a column value of a single row in conditional display of a column?
So my idea is, that a report has a column, which value is only displayed, when another column value of this row has a specific value.
I want to solve this problem with condition type: PL/SQL Function Body returning a boolean.
But I do not know how to refer the column value of each single row!
Thank you,
Tim

Here's a solution that, to me, seems easier to implement but, that's, of course, in the eye of the implementer.
Rather than using APEX to generate a link column for you, actually create the link as part of your SQL.
select '<a href="f?p=102:3:491847682940364::::P3_CONTACT_ID:' || CONTACT_ID || "><img src="/i/themes/theme_1/ed-item.gif" alt="Edit"></a>' CONTACT_LINK, ...
etc.
Test this out. You'll see that it works just like making a column a link using the column attributes.
Next, we'll change the SQL to use a DECODE statement to either display the link or nothing depending on what your criteria is. For example, let's assume you only want a link for active contacts.
select Decode( CONTACT_STATUS, 'A', '<a href="f?p=102:3:491847682940364::::P3_CONTACT_ID:' || CONTACT_ID || "><img src="/i/themes/theme_1/ed-item.gif" alt="Edit"></a>', NULL ) CONTACT_LINK, ...
etc.
This will not display the link in any rows in which the CONTACT_STATUS is not active, i.e. "A"

How to get the Column names of output that is displaying in Sql Developer(Oracle 11g).

Hi,
    I am using OCCI to interact with DB through code, which means I am writing a vc++ file to interact with Data Base and execute the Stored Procedure which I am calling from the C++ Code. And also displaying the output of the Stored Procedures to the Front End. I am succeeded in this, but now I should be able to display the Column names of the output to Front End. Can any one help me on this.
Example:
Sno |   Sname
------- |-------------
1          ABC
2          DEF
I am getting (1,ABC) and (2,DEF) as the output of the Stored Procedure but I need the Column names also to display. How to get them.
Thanks in Advance..:)

Look at Re: exporting csv via pl/sql - select statement?
It has an example how to extract the column name from a cursor. You have to check, whether you can use DBMS_SQL.DESCRIBE_COLUMNS
Your procedure might need another out parameter, that returns the column names , e.g. as comma separated list or as varray.

How to rename the column name in oracle 8i?

hi,
Does anyone know how to rename the column name in oracle 8i?My method was drop the relationship key first then delete the old column,finally add the new column.
Thanks for your replay.
jing

There is no facilty to rename a column name in Oracle 8i. This is possible from Oracle 9.2 version onwards.
For you task one example given below.
Example:-
Already existed table is ITEMS
columns in ITEMS are ITID, ITEMNAME.
But instead of ITID I want ITEMID.
Solution:-
step 1 :- create table items_dup
as select itid itemid, itemname from items;
step 2 :- drop table items;
step 3 :- rename items_dup to items;
Result:-
ITEMS table contains columns ITEMID, ITEMNAME

Hey john,
My requirement is as follows
I have created a Rank for Total sales by Region wise i.e RANK(SUM(Dollars By Region)) in a pivot table.
My pivot table looks like this
COLUMN SELECTOR: TOTAL US , REGION , DISTRICT , MARKET
---------------------------------------------------- JAN 2009          FEB 2009        MAR 2009
RANK              REGION                  DOLLARS           DOLLARS        DOLLARS DOLLARS
1 CENTRAL 10 20 30 40
2 SOUTHERN 10 30 30 70
3 EASTERN 20 20 20 60
4 WESTERN 10 20 30 40
When i select the District in column selector
Report has to display rank based on Total Sales by District. i.e
------------------------------------------------- JAN 2009         FEB 2009       MAR 2009
RANK             DISTRICT              DOLLARS           DOLLARS        DOLLARS DOLLARS
for this i need to change the fx of rank i.e RANK(SUM(Dollars By Region)) to RANK(SUM(Dollars By District)) and fx of Region i.e Markets.Region to Markets.District dynamically.
so , i need to capture column name of the value selected from the column selector and dynamically i need to update the fx 0f RANK & fx of region.
do you have any solution for this?

Hi Developer life,
According to your description that you want to dynamically increase and decrease the numbers of the columns in the table, right?
As Jason A Long mentioned that we can use the matrix to do this and put the year field in the column group, amount fields(Numric values) in the details, add an filter to filter the data base on this column group, but if
the data in the DB not suitable to add to the matrix directly, you can use the unpivot function to turn the column name of year to a single row and then you can add it in the column group.
If there are too many columns in the column group, it will fit the page size automatically and display the extra columns in the next page.

If your still have any problem, please try to provide us more details information, such as the data structure in the DB and the table structure you are currently designing.
Any question, please feel free to let me know.
