How to : SELECT MAX(EmpID) / count(*) in SELECT Query

Hi,
I like to find out the Maximum of the EmpID that is in the DB table.
So I need to perform a select Query:
Select MAX(EmpID) from EmpTable
or Select Count(*) from EmpTable
<StatementName>
<dbTableName action=SELECT>
   <table>realDbTableName</table>
     <access>
         <??? />
      </access>
</dbTableName>
</StatementName>
I cannot type MAX(EmpID) or count(*) as access element
So what should I mention in the Access?
Thanks & regards,
Siva Maranani.

if 0CALDAY is used as a characteristic then you have to convert that as a key figure using a replacement path variable.
Please see the below link for changing 0CALDAY as a key figure using Replacement path
http://www.sd-solutions.com/documents/SDS_BW_Replacement%20Path%20Variables.html
https://websmp106.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700001963972003E/HowToCalcWithAttr.pdf
Now you have to create an exception "Top N Rows" based on the replacement path variable created above.
This will solve your problem.

I want to know how exactly the internal flow of select query works. Can someone please explain

Hi,
Thanks for the link.Is there any example for back end process of Select queryBingo.. ;)
See, a process (or) set of programs which are working internally. You can get some of the results about the statistics of query how much cpu time it consuming, fetches etc., check v$sql_monitor. Apart from that if you are looking for some thing else then kindly elaborate your requirement.

How can I evaluate the count of a query I'd like to execute with a map...

Hi. I have a problem with a query...
I hava created a query which a execute with a Map (I use the
executeWithMap(Map) method). The problem is that sometimes this query
returns a large resultset. So, I would like to execute an other query
(called query_count) before executing ther final query with the Map. If
the query_count returns a count < 200, I execute the final query. How can
I do ? There is an example I have read this in the documentation :
Query query = pm.newQuery (Magazine.class, "price < 5");
query.setResult ("count(this)");
Long count = (Long) query.execute ();
The problem in this example is that the query is not execute with a Map.
So my question is : "How can we do the evalute the count of a query we
would like to execute with a map ?". Thank you for any response.

Hi John,
You should be able to executeWithMap that query, too. Is that giving you
problems?
Note that there may be an easier solution. What do you do if there are more
than 200 results? If, e.g., you just get the first N, then one option is to
set the FetchBatchSize on the query to N (thus activating large result set
support), and then call size () on the resulting Collection. This will
issue a SELECT COUNT(*) to the database to determine the size automatically.
Thanks,
Greg

How can I get record count with a query?

In Client/Server pplication,the client send a query to server.
How can server get record count by oracle call interface?
Is it need execute "select count(*) from ...."?

Yes.
Either that or increment a counter for each record fetched and
loop round until you hit the last record.
The first method would be more efficient on large datasets.

How to output a row counter from sql query

Here is an example of my problem. Say I have a table with 4 rows, my_table. Here is my select statement:

How to select the max rowid from a subquery with group by

Hi Gurus,
Kindly help how to fix the following query because I'm getting Oracle error:ORA-01446.
select * from edy_raw_data a
where rowid in ( select max(rowid) from(
select email,max(date_updated) from edy_raw_data b
where b.email=a.email
group by email ))
The query select the max rowid from a sub query with group by.
Thanks in Advance.
Benjie

Why do you need to compare with rowid?
Wouldn't this suffice?
select * from edy_raw_data a
where (email,date_updated) = (select email, max(date_updated) from edy_raw_data b
where b.email=a.email
group by b.email ))* Note: untested

How do you get the count of number of checkbox selected?

hi,
plz tell me how do you get the count of number of checkbox selected?

Not sure what you are doing so I will attempt to answer your question. If have one question which can have multiple answers you have will recieve an array so you have to do getParameterValues("name") and move it into an array.
If you have multiple questions and only value will be selected do a getParameter("name") on each form element.
HTH, if not provide more detail.

How to Run a Select Query stored in a Variable

Hello,
I have a following requirement:
Result of one select query on Var1 , result of other select query in Var2 ,
if Va2 = 'value11' OR Var2 = 'Value2' then Var1 = 'select query'. Now how can I run this SQL query at the end of the Pl/SQL?
so I'm writing following query for the same:
DECLARE
qry nvarchar2(500);
result nvarchar2(500);
BEGIN
select 'select TEXTVAL as "CHARG" FROM TABLE1 WHERE LOC =''[ParameterValue]'' and KEYNAME =''<<REPLACE>>''' INTO qry from dual;
SELECT CASE WHEN count(RW."CountofBATCH") > 1 then 'Mixing'
WHEN count(RW."CountofMAT") = 0 then 'None'
ELSE 'Other'
END
INTO result
FROM TABLENAME2 TT, XMLTable('/Rowsets/Rowset/Row' PASSING TT.XMLCOL
COLUMNS
"CountofBATCH" PATH '/Row[CLABS > 0]/CHARG',
"CountofMAT" PATH '/Row[MATNR = "[Parameter Value]"]/MAT'
) AS RW
where
TT.PL = '[Parameter Value]' and
TT.TANK = '[Parametr Value]' ;
IF result = 'Mixing' OR result = 'None' THEN
qry := replace( qry , '<<REPLACE>> ' , result);
else
qry := 'Nothing';
END IF;
This way the variable qry will have select statement. Now How can I run this qry variable to get the output of that select statement in the same query?

you can use execute immediate if the output of the query is in the single query.
that is very simple.
have the query in the signle string and then pass like this
declare
qry varchar2(255);
result varcharf2(2500);
vempid number :=1;
begin
qry:='select empname from emp where empid=:empid';
execute immediate qry into result using vempid;
-----now the data result is in result
end;

How to get number of rows return in SELECT query

i'm very new in java, i have a question:
- How to get number of rows return in SELECT query?
(i use SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC and everything are done, i only want to know problems above)
Thanks.

make the result set scroll insensitve, do rs.last(), get the row num, and call rs.beforeFirst(), then you can process the result set like you currently do.
         String sql = "select * from testing";
         PreparedStatement ps =
          con.prepareStatement(sql,ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE,ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
         ResultSet rs = ps.executeQuery();
         rs.last();
         System.out.println("Row count = " + rs.getRow());
         rs.beforeFirst();~Tim

How to Select each check box values in a group of records

Hi,
I have a requirement in forms 10g. In that form there are 10 records are displaying each record has one check box is there if i click the check box on record number one and record number three and do some changes in the text field(adjustment field is number data type) then finally I want to see the total on one field called total amount.
In this my question is how to select particular records in a group of records? and finally these selected records are inserted into one table.
Because I am not able to fetch these records at a time.
Is there any Array to define a record group to fetch each of them individually for example Rec[1],Rec[2]...like that if yes please suggest me the steps how to do this.
Thanks in advance

I'm sorry, but i didn't get your requirement in detail.
Do you want to do the summing of the selected records in forms ? Or do you just want to know which records are selected and then process them?
If you want to process the selected records in sql you could use an object-type to store the list of id's (of whatever primary key you use), loop over the block to fill it, and then afterwards process them.
For this approach, first create an object-type in the database:
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE ID_LIST AS TABLE OF NUMBER;
/Then, in forms you could do something like this to fill a list of id's:
DECLARE
lIds ID_LIST:=ID_LIST();
BEGIN
GO_BLOCK('MYBLOCK');
FIRST_RECORD;
LOOP
    EXIT WHEN :SYSTEM.RECORD_STATUS='NEW';
    IF :BLOCK.CHECKBOXITEM="CHECKEDVALUE" THEN
      lIds.EXTEND(1);
      lIds(lIds.COUNT):=:BLOCK.PRIMARYKEYITEM;
    END IF;
    EXIT WHEN :SYSTEM.LAST_RECORD='TRUE';
    NEXT_RECORD;
END LOOP;
-- Now you can use the object-list in SQL like :
INSERT INTO MYNEWTABLE (cols..)
SELECT (cols..)
    FROM MYOLDTABLE
   WHERE ID IN (SELECT COLUMN_VALUE FROM TABLE(lIds));
