How to retrieve 3 max values
Hi ,
can anyone let me know how to retrive the max 3 values from a table...
I want to get the top 3 values of salary from emp table
Thanks,
Praveen
Praveen,
Consider the following example:
SQL> set pagesize 9999
SQL> select empno, ename, sal
2 from scott.emp;
EMPNO ENAME SAL
7369 SMITH 800
7499 ALLEN 1600
7521 WARD 1250
7566 JONES 2975
7654 MARTIN 1250
7698 BLAKE 2850
7782 CLARK 2450
7788 SCOTT 3000
7839 KING 5000
7844 TURNER 1500
7876 ADAMS 1100
7900 JAMES 950
7902 FORD 3000
7934 MILLER 1300If you want to get the top three salaries, you can use this query
SQL> select sal
2 from
3 (select distinct sal
4 from scott.emp
5 order by sal desc)
6 where rownum<=3;
SAL
5000
3000
2975If you want to see all the employees having any of top-3 salaries you can use the following one:
SQL> select empno, ename, sal
2 from
3 (select empno, ename, sal, dense_rank() over (order by sal desc) dr
4 from scott.emp
5 )
6 where dr<=3;
EMPNO ENAME SAL
7839 KING 5000
7788 SCOTT 3000
7902 FORD 3000
7566 JONES 2975If you want to get the first 3 employees with the highest salaries. You can use the following one.
But, be aware, there might be more employees having $3000,00 salary.
SQL> select empno, ename, sal
2 from
3 (select empno, ename, sal
4 from scott.emp
5 order by sal desc)
6* where rownum<=3
SQL> /
EMPNO ENAME SAL
7839 KING 5000

How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure
How to retrieve the values from a table if they differ in Unit of Measure?
If no data is read
- Insure that you use internal code in SELECT statement, check via SE16 desactivating conversion exit on table T006A. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2a/fa0122493111d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm])
If no quanity in result internal table
- There is no adqntp field in the internal table, so no quantity is copied in itab ([ref|http://help.sap.com /abapdocu_70/en/ABAPINTO_CLAUSE.htm#&ABAP_ALTERNATIVE_1@1@]).
- - Remove the CORRESPONDING, so quantity will fill the first field adqntp1. ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABENOPEN_SQL_WA.htm])
- - Then loop at the internal table and move the quantity when necessary to the 2 other fields.
* Fill the internal table
SELECT msehi adqntp
INTO TABLE internal table
FROM lipso2
WHERE vbeln = wrk_doc1
AND msehi IN ('KL','K15','MT').
* If required move the read quantity in the appropriate column.
LOOP AT internal_table ASSIGNING <fs>.
CASE <fs>-msehi.
WHEN 'K15'.
<fs>-adqnt2 = <fs>-adqnt1.
CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
WHEN 'MT'.
<fs>-adqnt3 = <fs>-adqnt1.
CLEAR <fs>-adqnt1.
ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
- You could also create another table with only fields msehi and adqntp and then collect ([ref|http://help.sap.com/abapdocu_70/en/ABAPCOLLECT.htm]) the data to another table.

How to retrieve the value of last identity has been updated in a database?
how to retrieve the value of last identity has been updated in a database
Hi,
Oracle 10g, FGA - Fine grained auditing, supports DML statements (9i only select).
Set up FGA using the DBMS_FGA.ADD_POLICY procudure:
sql> BEGIN
DBMS_FGA.ADD_POLICY (
policy_name => 'AUD_EMPLOYEE_SAL',

object_name => 'EMPLOYEE',
audit_column => SALARY',

NEXT:

The database inserts the audit record into the FGA_LOG$ table using an autonomous transaction; even if you roll back the update statement, the update action will still be logged in this table. The fga_log$ tracks the session, machine id, timestamp, schema, scn, etc:

How to retrieve 2 values from a table in a LOV
Hi
I'm pretty new to APEX. I try to retrieve two values from a table using a LOV. I have a table named DEBIT with then columns SITE, NAME and KEY
I want to display NAME to the user in a list. When the user select an item from the list, I want to retrieve the data of the SITE and KEY column of this item in order to launch an SQL command based on this two values.
How to retrieve thes two values whant the user chooses an item from the list ?
I apologize for my english, being french.
Regards.
ChristianChristian,
From what I understood about your requirement, you want a 'select list with submit' which displays "NAME" and based on the value selected, you want to get the corresponding values for "SITE" and "KEY" from the table.
<b>Step 1: Create a select list with submit, say P1_MYSELECT </b><br><br>
Use something like this in the dynamic list of values for the select list: <br>
SELECT NAME display_value, NAME return_value
FROM DEBIT<br><br>
<b>Step 2: Create a page process of type PL/SQL block. Also create 2 hidden items P1_KEY and P1_SITE. </b><br><br>
In the PL/sQL, write something like:
DECLARE
v_key DEBIT.KEY%TYPE;
v_site DEBIT.SITE%TYPE;
CURSOR v_cur_myvals IS
SELECT KEY, SITE
FROM DEBIT
WHERE NAME = :P1_MYSELECT;
BEGIN
OPEN v_cur_myvals;
LOOP
FETCH v_cur_myvals
INTO v_key,v_site;
EXIT WHEN v_cur_myvals%NOTFOUND;
:P1_KEY := v_key;
:P1_SITE := v_site;
END LOOP;
CLOSE v_cur_myvals;
END; <br><br>
Then you can use these values for whatever purpose you need to.
Hope this helps. -
How to retrieve the values from a LinkedList
Hello,
I have just put this question in java programming forums by mistake...I think that it should be here ...
I have created a LinkedList to store the results of a query to a database.
These reasults are decimal numbers and then I want to sum all these numbers to be able to make the average.
But when I try to retrieve the values of the Linked List I always receive an incopatible types error..
Here is an extract of my code in a jsp page.
LinkedList Average = new LinkedList();
String Media = rst.getString(10);
Average.add(Media);
int Size = Average.size();
double Sum = 0.0;
for (int i=0; i<=Size; i++)
double Result = Average.get(i)
Sum = Sum + Result;
}If I try to retrieve the value of only one node from the list , I can just putting <%=Average.get(i)%>...but..how can I retrieve all the values (they are decimal numbers) to be able to add them?If you want to sum all the values, is there any reason you just don't retrieve the sum from the database rather than the list of values?
anyway
List average = new LinkedList();
while (rst.next()){
// retrieve the number:
String mediaString = rst.getString(10);
Double media = Double.valueOf(mediaString);
// or maybe like this if it is a number in the database
Double media = new Double(rst.getDouble(10));
average.add(media);
doubleSum = 0.0;
for (Iterator it = average.iterator(); it.hasNext(); ){
Double result= (Double) it.next();
doubleSum += result.doubleValue();

How to retrieve constants value from compiled code in jar file?
Hi everyone,
I've been looking for a way to solve this for a week now, without any much success... and I've finally decided to ask the Java gurus for a solution! :-)
Here's what I am basically trying to do:
I have several jar files in which there are only compiled code (.class).
In every class, there are 2 constants (declared as static final String) that I would like to retrieve (one is the version and the other the date of the last modification).
My goal is to print a list of all the classes in the jar files with the values of these 2 constants for each class.
The solution that I have right now to do this does not work properly: for now, I read all the elements of the classpath, check if these are jar files, and if so, I look into each one and load all the classes one by one and print the results.
The problem with this is that it uses the method Class.forName(className) and as some classes are unfortunately present in many jar files (2 or 3 copies), once the classes have been loaded, then it won't be "reloaded".
Without the possibility to "reload" these classes, I cannot see inconsistencies in the versions of the classes present in the jar files.
I have read many articles, and I thought that I could then use a custom classloader and create a new instance of this classloader for each jar file.
2 problems with this:
- according to many posts in the different forums I have read, the jar files should not appear in the CLASSPATH (but this would be easier for me if I could use it...)
- some classes will not be loaded if some classes (present in other jar files) are not loaded... and this makes things really really complicated to implement...
So, I thought that I was maybe doing this the wrong way, and that there might be an easy way out of this...
In fact, I do not need to load the classes... all I need to do, is take a sneak peek at the constants and print their values... and that's it!
Somehow, I think that this is possible to retrieve the values of compile time constants (declared as static final String) as I can see that with Eclipse (when opening a jar file).
So, my question is: how can I do that within my java application?
Or maybe there is another easier solution to do what I need?

How to retrieve checkboxes values?
I am using a few checkboxes
<form method="post" action="testgetPara.jsp">
<input name="termcond1" type="checkbox" value="1" id="termcond" checked>
<input name="termcond2" type="checkbox" value="2" id="termcond" >
<input name="termcond3" type="checkbox" value="3" id="termcond" >
<input type ="submit" name ="submit" value ="submit">
</form>
and hope to retrieve the "checked" values from these boxes
so i do this
<%int i = 0;
//chkno is used only to retrieve the number of checked checkboxes
String chkno[] = request.getParameterValues("chkdelbook");
//using a while loop to retrieve the value + execute it to the database.
while (i < chkno.length)
String isbn = request.getParameter("termcond");//get the specific array item
out.println(isbn);
//increment the i counter
++i;
%>
but it doesn't seem to be working
it return me with
An error occurred between lines: 2 and 16 in the jsp file: /testgetPara.jsp
Generated servlet error:
C:\jakarta-tomcat-4.0.3\work\localhost\Testing\testgetPara$jsp.java:69: [] can only be applied to arrays. It can't be applied to java.lang.String.
String isbn = request.getParameter("termcond")[i];//get the specific array item
^
1 error
this error
may i know how to solve it?but it give me a java.lang.NullPointerException
i have same id for my checkboxes, different name and
values for them
but it just doesnt work.NPE might be because tehere is no parameters named 'hobbies'
having same ID is not same as having same NAME (see the difference ID vs NAME)
if you had
<form>
<br>java<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="java">
<br>haskell<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="haskell">
<br>prolog<input type="checkbox" name="hobbies" value="prolog">
<input type="submit">
</form>
and it would appear something like this:
java [X]
haskell[X]
prolog[_]
[submit]
then you could probably write some code for it like this:
String[] hobbies = request.getParameterValues("hobbies");
for (int j = 0; j < hobbies.length; j++) {
%>
Your hobby is: <%= hobbies[j] %><br>
<%
}and it's output would hopefully look somewhat like this:
Your hobby is: java
Your hobby is: haskell
of course i have not tryed that code nore looked methods up from API recently, so it might have some minor bugs. -
How to get Max value in Essbase
Hi,
I have problem to get max value from 3 years in Essbase.
How can i get max value from Dec 2009,Dec 2010, Dec 2011.
Suppose value of Dec 2009 = 1000, Dec 2010 = 1500 and Dec 2011 = 2000
I want to get max value from these three value, how can i do that in Essbase Calculation Script.
Any idea?
Thanks.
Regards,
JoniYou have not specified if year and period are separate dimensions, anyway as always there a number of different possbilities and I don't have much time today to think about it but one method could be to use @MAXRANGE
FIX(Other members to fix on,"Dec")
"MemberToStoreAgainst" = @MAXRANGE("MemberToFindMaxRangeFor","2009:"2011");
ENDFIX

How to retrieve the values from PL/SQL table types.
Hi Every one,
I have the following procedure:
DECLARE
TYPE t1 IS TABLE OF emp%ROWTYPE
INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
t t1;
BEGIN
SELECT *
BULK COLLECT INTO t
FROM emp;
END;
This procedure works perfectly fine to store the rows of employee in a table type. I am not able to retrieve the values from Pl/SQL table and display it using dbms_output.put_line command.
Can anybody help me please!!!!!
Thanks
Ahmed.You mean, you can't add this
for i in t.first..t.last loop
dbms_output.put_line(t(i).empno||' '||t(i).ename||' '||t(i).job);
end loop;or you can't add this
set serveroutput onor maybe, you are working in third party application where dbms_output is not applicable at all?
You see, not able like very similar it is not working - both are too vague...
