I need a method to target specific columns in an IP query embedded in a WAD

I have an IP enabled WAD with multiple embedded queries. I need a method to target specific columns of specific queries so as to enable text wrapping. Does anyone have a technique that has worked for them that they can share?

Hi Mayank - I would think some JavaScript code might work, but I would be open to any technique that works.

Analysis report with totals on specific columns

I have an analysis report that I need to create totals on specific columns. If I turn on "Grand Totals" from the "Edit View: Table" section, all of the numeric columns will display grand totals. This is a nice automatic feature, but I only need totals of specific columns. Not all numeric columns need totals nor do Grand Totals of some columns make any sense.
For example, to display opportunity details, we will have on the report:
Opportunity Name, Item number, Item Description, Quantity, Price, Extended Price
Since the opportunity may have multiple items on it, having a grand total of quantity and unit price makes no sense. All we need is Grand Total of the opportunity extended price.
Is there a way to selectively turn on/off column totals or is it an all or nothing option?
Thanks in advance.

Actually, i just solved the problem.
Here is what I did:
1. I added a column to the "Design Criteria" section (step 1). To keep the units consistant, I made sure that the data element was suitable for the value (I used a currency element). Ensure you note the position of the new column, mine was in position 11.
2. Under the newly added elements "Column Properties", I set it to HIDDEN and changed the name to "Grand Total"
3. Under the "Edit Formula", I changed the formula to be: SUM(<numeric column>)
4. In "Create Layout" (Step 2), I added a narrative view to the bottom of the page.
5. In the "Edit Narrative View", I set the appropriate formatting and added the following: Total Extended Price: @11
6. Ensure that "Rows to display" is set to 1.
Save and run
All done, works like a charm.

How to select a specific column in a bean method?

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to select a specific column in my adf table so i can hightlight the ones i can after, with a method bean that does a match from another table. I'm using JDeveloper 12.1.2.0.0.
Here's my table at the moment (its a static list that Timo and Alejandro helped me create, thanks to them again!):
<af:table value="#{bindings.Anos1.collectionModel}" var="row"
                                                          rows="#{bindings.Anos1.rangeSize}"

I've deleted some of the columns because they are all equal and by doing so, you have less problems in reading it.
In my method i have a matchEm but i'm trying to select a column by using this line:
        dimAnos.setColumnSelection("A2012");
dimAnos is the binding for my table Anos (Years in Portuguese). I even tried another values fro the columnSelection but i couldn't make it selected. Am i doing anything wrong?
Please help me or give me an idea of how can i do this.
Regards,
Frederico.

Hi Frederico,
The method setColumnSelection is meant to set whether your table supports column selection or not. It doesn't select the column. In order to select the column, you need to set the column attribute Selected to true. So I don't know if its an option for you but you can create a binding to all the columns you have in you bean, and then call the method A2012.setSelected(true), and then add a partial target to the table to re render it and show the selected column.
Hope this helps

Get column value for specific columns

I want to change the default behavior of a IKM. In a specific step, I need to call a PLSQL procedure inside the loop below, and that procedure will substitute the insert clause. The procedure uses only some attributes, and I need to check the name of each one when I use the getColList method.
     for aRecord in myCursor loop
          insert into      <%=snpRef.getTable("L","TARG_NAME","A")%>
               <%=snpRef.getColList("", "[COL_NAME]", ",\n\t\t\t", "", "((INS AND (NOT TRG)) AND REW)")%>
               <%=snpRef.getColList(",", "[COL_NAME]", ",\n\t\t\t", "", "((INS AND TRG) AND REW)")%>
          values
               <%=snpRef.getColList("", "aRecord.[COL_NAME]", ", \n\t\t\t", "", "((INS AND (NOT TRG)) AND REW)")%>
               <%=snpRef.getColList(",", "aRecord.[COL_NAME]", ", \n\t\t\t", "", "((INS AND TRG) AND REW)")%>
     end loop;
For example, to call the procedure I do that: schema.proc_1(col1, col2, col3). However, I have more than 3 columns, and I need to restrict them when I use the getColList method. I would like to know if there is a way to get only specific columns, giving these names. I pass the name of the column, and the method should return its value. Can I use the getColList to do that? Is there any other way to do that?

Hi Luciene,
You can use the UD flags to do this. If you click on one of your mappings in the Diagram tab of your interface you will notice several UD flags (UD1 to UD5) you can use those to flag the columns you want to use in proc_1.
To summarize:
- at the interface level flag the columns you want to use in your PL/SQL code -> check UD1 for all of them
- modify your IKM code:
<%=odiRef.getColList(",", "COL_NAME", ",\n\t\t\t", "", "((INS AND TRG) AND REW AND UD1)")%> <- retrieve columns flagged with insert, not read only, mapped on target and with UD1 flagged. The "AND UD1" part can be used in other getColList.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Julien

Column definition for a specific column in a view

Is there a way to query the metadata to get the definition of a single column in a view? I can see the complete DDL for a view from USER_VIEWS.TEXT, and I can see the column listing in USER_TAB_COLUMNS to give the datatype etc. However, what I'm looking for is the DDL that defined a specific column.
So, given:
create table PERSON (
SSN VARCHAR2(12),
FIRST_NAME VARCHAR2(25),
LAST_NAME VARCHAR2(25),
STREET VARCHAR2(40),
CITY VARCHAR2(30),
STATE VARCHAR2(30),
ZIP VARCHAR2(15),
COUNTRY VARCHAR2(35))
create view PERSON_VW as
select SSN,
FIRST_NAME,
LAST_NAME,
FIRST_NAME || ' ' || LAST_NAME FULL_NAME
from PERSON
I expect the query might look something like:
select DDL from metadata where table_name = 'PERSON_VW' and column_name = 'FULL_NAME'
and the result would be: "PERSON.FIRST_NAME || ' ' || PERSON.LAST_NAME"
or select DDL from metadata where table_name = 'PERSON_VW' and column_name = 'FIRST_NAME'
and the result would be: "PERSON.FIRST_NAME"
Thanks!

Hi again Barry,
When I queried user_tab_columns (or dba_tab_columns or all_tab_columns), I have the following list of columns:
TABLE_NAME
COLUMN_NAME
DATA_TYPE
DATA_LENGTH
DATA_PRECISION
DATA_SCALE
NULLABLE
COLUMN_ID
DEFAULT_LENGTH
DATA_DEFAULT
I don't see anything resembling the DDL for the view column. Somewhere underneath some
cover I haven't peeked under, Oracle must be keeping track of what it is supposed to be giving
for, in my example, FULL_NAME.Unless I'm very much mistaken, these columns' data (per table) looks pretty much like DDL to me.
Maybe what you need is just SQL Developer (great tool, if you don't have it, get it!).
And it's free (as in beer - not as in speech! :( )
Beside the connections tab is a "Reports" tab with various, as you might expect ;), reports.
One of them is on the Tables - with (some) DDL. This will work as a once-off if that's what
you need?
Otherwise there's the SQL tab if you open a table under connections - it's very complete - sample
at bottom of post.
HTH,
Paul...
(Ultimately, I'm diagnosing problems in existing databases that have views already created so
I don't have the option of considering virtual columns.)Quelle surprise ;(

BULK INSERT from a text (.csv) file - read only specific columns.

I am using Microsoft SQL 2005, I need to do a BULK INSERT from a .csv I just downloaded from paypal. I can't edit some of the columns that are given in the report. I am trying to load specific columns from the file.
bulk insert Orders
FROM 'C:\Users\*******\Desktop\DownloadURL123.csv'
   WITH
              FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
                FIRSTROW = 2,
                ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
So where would I state what column names (from row #1 on the .csv file) would be used into what specific column in the table.
I saw this on one of the sites which seemed to guide me towards the answer, but I failed.. here you go, it might help you:
FORMATFILE [ = 'format_file_path' ]
Specifies the full path of a format file. A format file describes the data file that contains stored responses created using the bcp utility on the same table or view. The format file should be used in cases in which:
The data file contains greater or fewer columns than the table or view.
The columns are in a different order.
The column delimiters vary.
There are other changes in the data format. Format files are usually created by using the bcp utility and modified with a text editor as needed. For more information, see bcp Utility.

Date, Time, Time Zone, Name, Type, Status, Currency, Gross, Fee, Net, From Email Address, To Email Address, Transaction ID, Item Title, Item ID, Buyer ID, Item URL, Closing Date, Reference Txn ID, Receipt ID,

Do you need more than 2 rows? I did not include all the columns from the actual csv file but most of it, I am planning on taking to the first table these specfic columns: date, to email address, transaction ID, item title, item ID, buyer ID, item URL.
The other table, I don't have any values from here because I did not list them, but if you do this for me I could probably figure the other table out.
Thank you very much.

How to use update trigger in sql server 2008 with specific column

The code above assumes a single row UPDATE.
You have to setup the trigger for set processing like when 100 rows are updated in a single statement.

How to execute query to store the result in the target table column ?

Hi
Source: Oracle
Target: Oracle
ODI: 11g
I have an interface which loads the data from source table to target. Some of the columns in the target tables are automatically mapped with source table. Some of the column remain un-mapped. Those who remain un-mapped, I want to load the values in that column by executing an query. So can anybody tell me where I should mention that query whose result would become the value of the specific column.
-Thanks,
Shrinivas

Actually I select the column from the target table then in the Property Inspector-->Mapping properties-->Implementation
tab I have written the query which retrieve the value for that column. Is the right place to write the query? How can do this ?

ALV Row Editable for specific column

Hi,
I am creating a transaction using ALV - Webdynpro. I would like to enable or disable the row ,(specific column in that row ).
Problem is very similar to the thread posted in the below link.
enable or disable row in alv
Please let me know how to achive the scenario.
Thanks,
Kumar

Hi Kumar,
Have a look at [this thread|How to set some rows in ALV to be editable or some non editable.; in which I have given the complete code to solve your problem. There is one post which explains how to set the cell editor, and one more post explains setting the cell as editable or read only.
You need to bind the read_only property of your node attribute (i.e, whichever column you want this behavior on), to another attribute (say FLD_READ_ONLY) in the same context node. And based on the value in attribute FLD_READ_ONLY, the cell property would be changed. Define this attribute of type char01. So based on your business logic, if you want the cell to be read only, set X in the attribute, and if you want it to be editable, set space.
I hope that would be clear enough. Please revert for any clarifications. Depending on your requirement, if you want the read_only property to change on lead selection, you can get the lead selection index and set the attribute FLD_READ_ONLY = X / space only for that element. This would make only one cell editable at a time.
You could also refer to this recent [thread|ABAP WebDynpro: Can edit a cell in a column?; for the same issue, where you would have some additional pointers.

How to generate a report for all Analyses which conatins a specific column

Hello Experts
I am trying to generate a report of all Analyses which contains a specific column. We are currently using OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0.
I have tried to use the command line options using ./runcat.sh, but did not find any arguments that can filter the analyses by a specific column used.
Any help is much appreciated.
Regards
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,
SampleApp has your answer: everything is available for free, just copy/paste and run on your own instance.

(as long as this instance will be up...)
In the dashboard named "10.31 Webcat Analysis" you have a columns to analysis report where you select the presentation column and you get all the reports using it.
This dashboard require a script to be run on your catalog, it will parse it and extract all the column info (and many other interesting things) and load it in a database. The scripts are simple and well documented, so you can easily adapt them to your own environment.
If you want the script there is no miracle solution: download SampleApp and extract it (it's not small, but with all the great content it has we can't complain about that ...).

Hiding Specific Columns in discoverer

Hi all !
Is it possible to hide specific columns for some specific users ?. I have 10 columns in the table out of which 2 columns should not be visible to specific users and other 2 columns should not be visible to some specific users in the report generated.
Thank You ,
Philip

Hi Philip
One option would be to create two versions of this report and use different connections - private or SSO - to implement this.
The other option may be to consider VPD to implement this functionality.
Thanks

This may be a basic question... but in InDesign, how does one determine the pixel size of a text box? Specifically, we need to write text to specifications of 600 pixel width, and have no idea a) how to scale a text box to specific pixel width, b) how to determine what word count we can fit in, and c) how to do it in a table? Thanks!

Set your ruler increments to pixels Preferences>Units & Increments. You can fill the text box with placeholder text Type>Fill with Placeholder text and get a word count from the Info panel with Show Options turned on from the flyout.
From the Transform panel you can set a text box's width and height

When i upgrade to snow leopard do i need to buy a version specific to my macbook air

when i upgrade to snow leopard from leopard do i need to buy a version specific to my 2008 macbook air

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
You can use the Snow Leopard version that is used for all Macs > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573Z/A/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard#
Make a backup before upgrading. Also, as you have a MacBook Air, it hasn't got a SuperDrive, so you have two options to install Snow Leopard:
1. Use DVD or CD sharing from a different PC or Mac, as stated in the Snow Leopard installation steps > http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Snow_Leopard_Installation_Instructions.pdf
2. Get an external DVD drive and use it to upgrade to Snow Leopard.
I recommend you to get an external disc drive, so installation will be faster. After upgrading, open  > Software Update, and install the latest version
