How to show attributes column types on ERD

Hi,
I created a diagram in ERD but can't find how to show in the diagram the column types. It only shows the column names but doesn't show if this is a varchar2, integer,etc or if this can be null or not. Please help.
Thanks in advance.

the idea is that entities are logical objects. Although you can designate a "format" for an attribute, it's really more of a physical model/implentation concept.
So the answer to your question is No.
However, If you wanted to use a Server model Diagram there is a lot more information associated with it.
And since it is a actual model of the DB then you will have your foreign keys in the child tables.

As already pointed out, there is no way to specify a generic type in a tag library descriptor. You may however specify an Object type in your tld and still have the variable in your tag as a parameterized generic type.
In your tld change the type to Object.
<type>java.lang.Object</type>.
The properties tag itself needs no change and can continue to use parameterized types.

I know how to retrieve column names and comments from
table all_col_comments.But I don't know retrieving view column type.If somebody know please help.

ALL_TAB_COLUMNS
ALL_TAB_COLUMNS describes the columns of the tables, views, and clusters accessible to the current user. To gather statistics for this view, use the SQL ANALYZE statement or the DBMS_STATS package.
Related Views
DBA_TAB_COLUMNS describes the columns of all tables, views, and clusters in the database.
USER_TAB_COLUMNS describes the columns of the tables, views, and clusters owned by the current user. This view does not display the OWNER column.

Note: The number of buckets in a histogram is specified in the SIZE parameter of the SQL statement ANALYZE. However, Oracle does not create a histogram with more buckets than the number of rows in the sample. Also, if the sample contains any values that are very repetitious, Oracle creates the specified number of buckets, but the value indicated by this column may be smaller because of an internal compression algorithm.
LAST_ANALYZED
DATE
The date on which this column was most recently analyzed
SAMPLE_SIZE

How to show Attribute name in Single line in ADF-JSPX pages

Hi,
I am having a issue , attribute name like "Name Of Catalog" in Brazilian-Portuguese Lang. is displaying in two lines instead of showing in one line, but it is correctly showing in English language.
And also this issue reproducible on IE 7 browser only. Please let me know your comments on above issue.
Thanks
Chandrakant

Hi John,
I have seen some solutions like using horizontal layout, where child components are arranged in a horizontal line. No wrapping is provided when contents exceed the amount of browser space available. Is this OK to use?
One more question is, how to enable Portuguese - Brazil Lang for pages in Jdev ? in other words, I want to see Label Text in Portuguese - Brazil Lang instead of English ?
Thanks.

How to show the columns dynamically in OBIEE report based on the selection?

Hi,
I have a requirement where the columns should be dynamically shown in report based on what we select in propmt page.
I'm creating a report in OBIEE where i want to give an option to the end user to select the columns whichever he wants to see in the report.
For example I have the following columns in the report already:
Customer Name,
Customer Number,
Bank Account,
Address
I want to give an option to the user to select 'Customer Mail ID' dynamically and see the column to be displyed in the report along with the existing columns.
Through 'Column Selector' user can select a single column at a time, but if he want to select more than one column, how can we do this ?
Please help me out in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Chaithanya.

Hi Chaithanya,
there's not a straight solution for this. You can create different analysis containing different number of columns and then directing the user to this analysis using Action Links or you can also use View Selector to switch from one view (analysis) to the other. But it's not going to be very flexible nor dynamic.

How to show additional column in the Query searchby field selection window?

Hi Experts,
I have a simple query as below:
select * from ocrd where cardcode between '[%0]' and '[%1]'
Now, it is evident that the searchby field is the cardcode, so when I click on the browse button, all cardcodes will be displayed for me to choose on a separate selection window. Now, on this separate selection window, can I also show an additional column "customer name"?? This is because I cannot really identify every customer code, and need to depend on customer name instead.
Thanks!
Warmest Regards,
Chinho
note: please dont ask me to use the below query instead, that is not what I want to achieve.
select * from ocrd where cardname between '[%0]' and '[%1]'

Hi!
It's not possible i belive. You can use Filter Option instead on Selection Parameter.

How to show a column containing seconds duration in integer format as HH:MM:SS?

Folks,
I need some advice on the best way to show seconds in the HH:MM:SS format in a PowerPivot model (it will be imported as SSAS Tabular later).
I have been reading some good stuff around the Internet, but I have a couple of issues:
I know we have the time dataset in SQL but the fact is that PowerPivot and SSAS Tabular does not have time-only fields. So even if I had a field like 21:12:00, this field would become effectively 30/12/1899 (or another date), followed by the time 21:12:00.
Even if I format the field to not show the date but only the time, I can foresee issues with this. I really need only the time.
Another issue with the time dataset is that it represents a time of the day. What I really want is a duration, not the time of the day. So I would like to allow users to specify parameters concerning the duration such as less than 5 minutes, more than 30
minutes and so forth and not necessarily the time of the day. There is also the issue that a time field could only go as far as 24 hours -- but it is improbable that we will ever have such duration.
So I am torn between what I can do concerning the formating of the field and the parametrisation that users could do.
Any suggestions? Thank you all for your help!
Best regards,
P.

Power View view filters will fill your need. Just put [DurationInMinutes] or [DurationInSeconds] on the page as a view filter and the users will have a slider bar of durations.
On the tables/charts, put the [DurationFormatted] on as your label.
If you need to find, for example an average call duration, you'll do something like the following:
AverageDuration:=
AVG( Table[DurationInSeconds] )
AverageFormatted:=
RIGHT(
'0' & FORMAT( INT( [AverageDuration] / 3600 ), 0 )
, 2
& RIGHT(
'0'
& FORMAT(
INT( MOD( [AverageDuration] / 60, 60 ) )
, 0
, 2
& RIGHT(
'0' & FORMAT( MOD( [AverageDuration], 60 ), 0 )
, 2
This will start to get cumbersome. You could implement a disconnected slicer to put different measures into that formatted measure, but even still it will be hairy, and that string processing is not desirable in my mind.
I would argue that displaying these things as total minutes (with or without decimals displayed) is your best bet, especially since you claim most will be under an hour. Most people do not have a problem interpreting 30.5 minutes, for example.

View does not show column type

I have two views containing a column, which is defined exactly in the same way. One view shows the column type as VARCHAR2 (200 CHAR) and the other does not show anything as the type.
Here is the screen shot:
http://public.ceving.de/2012050900/postaladdress.png
First question: why is there a difference?
Second question: why is the type VARCHAR2 although the modeler does not know VARCHAR2 but only VARCHAR as a column type?
Here are the definitions of the views:
This is "user_status":
WITH user_status_data AS
(SELECT work_user_status_data.person_id,
MAX(work_user_status_data.startdate) AS startdate
FROM work_user_status_data
GROUP BY work_user_status_data.person_id
SELECT person.id AS tmdid,
person_a.lastname,
person_a.firstname,
person_a.email AS emailaddress,
person_a.address
|| ', '
|| person_a.zipcode
|| ' '
|| person_a.city
|| ' '
|| person_a.country AS postaladdress,
person_a.phone,
person_a.mobile,
person_a.company AS organization,
person_a.orgunit_abbr AS orgunit,
work_user_status_data.pwdresetflag,
work_user_status_data.lockaccount,
work_user_status_data.primarypwd,
work_user_status_data.expdate,
work_user_status_data.iamtid,
work_user_status_data.startdate,
work_user_status_data.stopdate,
'IN PROGRESS' AS status
FROM person_a
INNER JOIN ts
ON ts.id = person_a.ts_id
INNER JOIN person
ON person.id = person_a.person_id
INNER JOIN user_status_data
ON person.id = user_status_data.person_id
INNER JOIN work_user_status_data
ON user_status_data.person_id = work_user_status_data.person_id
AND user_status_data.startdate = work_user_status_data.startdate
WHERE ts."until" IS NULL
And this is "work_user_status":
SELECT person.id AS tmdid,
person_a.lastname,
person_a.firstname,
person_a.email AS emailaddress,
person_a.address
|| ', '
|| person_a.zipcode
|| ' '
|| person_a.city
|| ' '
|| person_a.country AS postaladdress,
person_a.phone,
person_a.mobile,
person_a.company AS organization,
person_a.orgunit_abbr AS orgunit,
work_user_status_data.pwdresetflag,
work_user_status_data.lockaccount,
work_user_status_data.primarypwd,
work_user_status_data.expdate,
work_user_status_data.iamtid,
work_user_status_data.startdate,
work_user_status_data.stopdate,
work_user_status_data.action,
work_user_status_data.progress
FROM person
INNER JOIN person_a
ON person.id = person_a.person_id
INNER JOIN work_user_status_data
ON person.id = work_user_status_data.person_id
INNER JOIN ts
ON ts.id = person_a.ts_id
WHERE ts."until" IS NULL

I just found out that the engineered version (10g) is also quite strange:
http://public.ceving.de/2012050900/postaladdress_10g.png
It shows the values in the columns for the types.
This looks very buggy.
Is it not recommended to create views with the data modeler?
