How to use SQL function in Tabular Form

Edited by: JuniorNewbi on 03-Nov-2009 08:15

Hi
I want to have a Tabular Form in which the Report Source sql statement is retrieved via an SQL function, so that the resulting report can show a variable number of columns and column names.
The following great web site shows just the kind of thing i'm trying to do (Tabular Form Dynamic):
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:195:518536699796436::NO:::
However, as an Apex newbie, i don't know how to invoke the SQL function from within the page. The "Report Source" appears to only allow a static "select...." style of entry.
I don't have access to the Denes Kubicek's workspace so don't know how he would have invoked his PL/SQL Function.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance!

How to use a function in Tabular Form?

I'm trying to build a tabular form maunally with a region of type "pl/sql function body returning sql query". The first column is a regular column in the table and in the second column is calculated column, I would like to pass the first column value to the function in second column and display that value. When I use the following query, it's passing "id" literally, instead of the actual value at the run time. any help is appreciated.
declare
query_str varchar2(1000) := NULL;
begin
query_str := 'SELECT HTMLDB_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE(1,id)"id" , HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2, test_function(id),10,100) "Name" from testtable';
return query_str;
end;

Hi,
the query looks ok. What happens when you run the query in SQL*Plus/Toad/... ?
SELECT HTMLDB_ITEM.DISPLAY_AND_SAVE(1,id) AS id, HTMLDB_ITEM.TEXT(2, test_function(id),10,100) AS name from testtable;Personally I wouldn't use the quote for the alias name of the column, because that makes them case sensitive. I know that the APEX wizard always uses quotes, also for tables/columns where it is not necessary...

How to use count():
The COUNT() function returns the number of rows that matches a specified criteria.
SQL COUNT(column_name) Syntax
The COUNT(column_name) function returns the number of values (NULL values will not be counted) of the specified column:
SELECT COUNT(column_name) FROM table_name
SQL COUNT(*) Syntax
The COUNT(*) function returns the number of records in a table:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table_name
SQL COUNT(DISTINCT column_name) Syntax
The COUNT(DISTINCT column_name) function returns the number of distinct values of the specified column:
SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT column_name) FROM table_name
The IN function helps reduce the need to use multiple OR conditions.
The syntax for the IN function is:
SELECT columns
FROM tables
WHERE column1 in (value1, value2, .... value_n);

How to use a function PIPELINED in Forms 10g?

You can't. One option would be to wrap your pipelined function in a view, or you could write a stored procedure which returns a strong ref cursor instead.

How to use data function using characterstics variable for calculation on

how to use data function using characterstics variable for calculation on attribute as key figure

Hi Gayatri
Did you not see my answer for CASE because CASE does indeed offer the use of the BETWEEN clause, but DECODE does not. Let me give you a little synopsis of DECODE.
In its most simple form it takes 4 values and looks like this: DECODE(A, B, C, D)
This essentially means, IF A = B THEN C ELSE D
The trick to solving BETWEEN in a DECODE is to work out algoriths where A = B. Because we don't know how many values are between 00 and 99, although I could guess there were 100 we could of course have 100 parts in the DECODE but that would be awful. How about if we look at it another way and say this:
IF PART_NUMBER < 'SDK00' THEN pay_amount
ELSE IF PART_NUMBER > 'SDK99' THEN pay_AMOUNT
ELSE pay_amount + 100
This statement only had 2 hard coded values, but how to make DECODE work with less than? Easy, we use the LEAST function. The LEAST function takes 2 values and returns the one with the lowest value. So I use LEAST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00') then whenever the PART_NUMBER is lower than SDK00 it will be true. A similar situation exists for the opposite function GREATEST. Putting all of this together then, you can do this:
DECODE(PART_NUMBER, GREATEST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00'), DECODE(PART_NUMBER, LEAST(PART_NUMBER, 'SDK99'), PAY_AMOUNT * 100, PAY_AMOUNT), PAY_AMOUNT)
In English this can be read as follows:
IF the PART_NUMBER is greater than or equal to SDK00 and the PART_NUMBER is less than or equal to SDK99 THEN PAY_AMOUNT x 100 ELSE 0
Best wishes

How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?

How to use complex function as condition in Oracle Rule Decision Table?
We want to compare an incoming date range with the date defined in the rules. This date comparison is based on the input date in the fact & the date as defined for each rule. Can this be done in a decision table?

I see a couple of problems here.
First, what you posted below is not a syntactically valid query. It seems to be part of a larger query, specifically, this looks to be only the GROUP BY clause of a query.

As you discovered, if you attempt to do so, you'll find it doesn't work. If you stop and think about how SQL is processed, it should make sense to you why the SQL is not valid.
If you want to apply a filter condition such as:
trunc(max(RD.DATERECEIVED)) BETWEEN TO_DATE('01/08/2011','DD/MM/YYYY') AND TO_DATE('01/08/2011','DD/MM/YYYY')you should do it in a HAVING clause, not a where clause:
select ....

where ....
group by ....

how to use the function module ssf_function_module_name in smartforms

Hi..
If you are using this Function module, you can get the generated function module name of smartform dynamically. It is good progrmaming practice to get the fucntion module name dynamically because there might be some problems if you are hard coding in program.
This will return the name of the function module and then from the exporting parameters you can use the fucntion module name to pass parameters to Smartforms.
