Insert Today's Date into query

I created a query and want it to filter based on todays date. How do I automatically add todays date to the query so the user does not need to type it in?

Yes you are right. You will need to use WHERE convert(varchar, T0.refdate, 103) = convert(varchar, getdate(), 103)
This is because the getdate() is actually a datetime field and returns current date and current time so in the previous statement you are asking for journal fields where the posting date = todays date AND the exact time that the query is run which is never going to be true.
If you just use getdate()-1 you will also get yesterdays' journals posted after this time yesterday.

How to insert a table data into temporary table

Hi
Can anyone help me to insert a table data into temporary table.
Thanks
Navin

If you could provide a (simplified) example of the data you have and the output you're attempting to get, that would probably be quite helpful. I'm not sure that I understand exactly what you're trying to do here...
1) It sounds like you know the structure of the result set you're trying to generate. So it would be possible to create a temporary table once (at the same time that you create all your other tables) and write procedural PL/SQL code that would step through the data, write data to the temp table, select the data out of the temp table, and return a REF CURSOR. That would tend not to be the way that an Oracle developer would do things (there are exceptions, of course), but it would work.
2) I don't see any inherent problems in using sub-selects and inline views to do whatever aggregation you're trying to do on the secondary tables, which would allow you to get the output in a single query. For example, given an ORDERS table and an ORDER_DETAILS table,
SELECT o.customer_id, o.invoice_number, SUM( od.line_item_cost ) total_cost
FROM orders o,
order_details od
WHERE o.order_id = od.order_id
GROUP BY o.customer_id, o.invoice_number3) If you do need to use procedural logic, I would tend to look into the use of pipelined table functions or to read the data into an in-memory collection and to manipulate and return that collection.

Field Update workflow action - Updating today's date into a field

Hello there.
I was hoping someone might be able to help with an error currently being experienced with regards to this workflow action.
The requirement is for a workflow rule to action the printing of today's date into a custom field on an Activity record. The workflow rule condition is (PRE('<Status>') <> 'Completed') AND ([<Status>] = 'Completed'). This appears to be working and triggering the action correctly.
The custom field to be updated is of type 'Date'. The value being updated into this field is 'Today()'. Overwrite existing values is checked.
The default value for the field is also 'Today()'. Thus the workflow action involves overwriting the default value (i.e. the date the record was created) to the current date when the Status is switched to completed.
When the workflow is triggered the following error message occurs:
"Unable to evaluate workflow rule for the following reason:
Update [Custom field name] : The value '01/18/2008' cannot be converted to a date time value. (SBL-DAT-00359) (SBL-ODS-00500)"
One odd observation is that this error only occurs when trying to update activities that were created on previous days - (it will not overwrite the default value of 15/01/2008 with 18/01/2008). The workflow does not return an error message when asked to overwrite a value which is equal to itself (i.e. if the default value was 18/01/2008, the workflow runs without error, although the value stays the same as you would expect.)
Can anyone shed any light on this? One potential thought is that our CRM is set up so that all dates appear in a different format - i.e. dates appear as dd/mm/yyy, rather than mm/dd/yyyy. Could this be contributing to this issue?
Any help very much appreciated indeed.
Thanks,
Kieran
ps. The reason for doing all this is that 'Completed date' for an activity does not appear in reporting. This has been raised with Oracle and apparently an 'enhancement request' has been registered.

Guys,
using the following statement, it does display the current system time
Mid(Timestamp(),4,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),1,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),7,4)+' '+Mid(Timestamp(),12,8)
Now When i do this , it displays me a time which is 3 hours ahead
Mid(Timestamp(),4,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),1,2)+'-'+Mid(Timestamp(),7,4)+' '+Mid(Timestamp() + (3.0/24.0),12,8)
My problem is to now display the difference of the current time stamp and the the time which shows 3 hours ahead in one field
Thats is substracting the first timestamp syntax fro mthe second timestamp syntax
and ofcourse if I copy paste both the syntaxes and put a minus sign in between, it doesnt work
Timestamdiff is not allowed in workflows or field validations :(
Anyone has any ideas?

Clearing today's date otherwise insert today's date

Sorry for the bad title. I'm trying to insert today's date by default, but I want the user to be able to change it. If they leave the field blank, I want acrobat to reinsert today's date. What's wrong with my code?
var val = this.getField('Day').value;
var today = util.printd("d", new Date());
if( val == today)
    val = "";
if( val = "" )
    val = util.printd("d", new Date());
this.getField('Day').value = val;

    OnFocus -> Run a Javascript
if( this.getField("Month").value == util.printd("mm", new Date()) )
    this.getField("Month").value = "";
     OnBlue -> Run a Javascript
if (this.getField("Month").value == "")
    this.getField("Month").value = util.printd("mm", new Date());
    OnFocus -> Run a Javascript
if( this.getField("Year").value == util.printd("yyyy", new Date()) )
    this.getField("Year").value = "";
     OnBlue -> Run a Javascript
if (this.getField("Year").value == "")

Parsing today's date into a String

How can I parse today's date into a String using this format: dd.mm.yyyy??? I taken a look at SimpleDateFormat, but I couldn't figure it out...
Herman Svensen

Hi Herman
this is copied from the api docs:
// Format the current time.
SimpleDateFormat formatter
= new SimpleDateFormat ("yyyy.MM.dd G 'at' hh:mm:ss a zzz");
Date currentTime_1 = new Date();
String dateString = formatter.format(currentTime_1);
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/docs/api/java/text/SimpleDateFormat.html
So what is the problem to figure out?

Inserting large xml data into xmltype

Hi all,
In my project I need to insert very large XML data into xmltype column.
My table:
CREATE TABLE TransDetailstblCLOB ( id number, data_xml XMLType) XmlType data_xml STORE AS CLOB;
I am using JDBC approach to insert values. It works fine for data less than 4000 bytes when using preparedStatement.setString(1, xmlData). As I have to insert large Xml data >4000 bytes I am now using preparedStatement.setClob() methods.
My code works fine for table which has column declared as CLOB expicitly. But for TransDetailstblCLOB where the column is declared as XMLTYPE and storage option as CLOB I am getting the error : "ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column".
This error means that there is a mismatch between my setClob() and column. which means am I not storing in CLOB column.
I read in Oracle site that
When you create an XMLType column without any XML schema specification, a hidden CLOB column is automatically created to store the XML data. The XMLType column itself becomes a virtual column over this hidden CLOB column. It is not possible to directly access the CLOB column; however, you can set the storage characteristics for the column using the XMLType storage clause."
I dont understand its stated here that it is a hidden CLOB column then why not I use setClob()? It worked fine for pure CLOB column (another table) then Why is it giving such error for XMLTYPE table?
I am struck up with this since 3 days. Can anyone help me please?
My code snippet:
query = "INSERT INTO po_xml_tab VALUES (?,XMLType(?)) ";
          //query = "INSERT INTO test VALUES (?,?) ";
     // Get the statement Object
     pstmt =(OraclePreparedStatement) conn.prepareStatement(query);
     // pstmt = conn.prepareStatement(query);
     //xmlData="test";
//      If the temporary CLOB has not yet been created, create new
     temporaryClob = oracle.sql.CLOB.createTemporary(conn, true, CLOB.DURATION_SESSION);
     // Open the temporary CLOB in readwrite mode to enable writing
     temporaryClob.open(CLOB.MODE_READWRITE);
     log.debug("tempClob opened"+"size bef writing data"+"length "+temporaryClob.getLength()+
               "buffer size "+temporaryClob.getBufferSize()+"chunk size "+temporaryClob.getChunkSize());
     OutputStream out = temporaryClob.getAsciiOutputStream();
     InputStream in = new StringBufferInputStream(xmlData);
int length = -1;
int wrote = 0;
int chunkSize = temporaryClob.getChunkSize();
chunkSize=xmlData.length();
byte[] buf = new byte[chunkSize];
while ((length = in.read(buf)) != -1) {
out.write(buf, 0, length);
wrote += length;
temporaryClob.setBytes(buf);
log.debug("Wrote lenght"+wrote);
     // Bind this CLOB with the prepared Statement
     pstmt.setInt(1,100);
     pstmt.setStringForClob(2, xmlData);
     int i =pstmt.executeUpdate();
     if (i == 1) {
     log.debug("Record Successfully inserted!");
     }

try this, in adodb works:
declare poXML CLOB;
BEGIN
poXML := '<OIDS><OID>large text</OID></OIDS>';
UPDATE a_po_xml_tab set podoc=XMLType(poXML) WHERE poid = 102;
END;

How to insert 3D Model data into an EPUB file?

Afternoon,
I am trying to insert a 3D model into an epub document. Does anybody know how to do this either within InDesign or with any other Adobe Program? The model I have is a Sketchup model and any export file type I try cannot be opened directly within InDesign.
In terms of working with an EPUB file Mac had the ibooks Author software which lets you insert Collada data and view a 3D Model within an ebook however this only lets me maintain my file as a ibook but in terms of the business I need to maintain EPUB compatibility as they are more uniformly compatible across our clientèle.
Can anyone shed some light on how to achieve the output I require?
Spoke to adobe support and they expressed about using 3rd party external coders to achieve this but i know very little about code unfortunately.
Regards,
G

InDesign doesn't natively support placing 3D models. It would have to be done with coding. If you can't do the coding yourself, you may have to pay for the service from an EPUB coding expert. You could also investigate third party EPUB software to see if they support it. Here is a recently-mentioned example (I don't know if they support it):

The nodelist is a 0 based array of information and you are only requesting to pull the node info in the first array position. So to get the info in the second array position, you need to use ", 1)". You can also use .getLength and a loop to parse through everything in the node list.

How to insert large xml data into database tables.

Hi all,
iam new to xml. i want to insert data in xml file to my database tables.but the xml file size is very large. performance is also one of the issue. can anybody please tell me the procedure to take xml file from the server and insert into my database tables.
Thanks in advance

Unfortunately posting very generic questions like this in the forum tends not to be very productive for you, me or the other people who read the forum. It really helps everyone if you take a little time to review existing posts and their answers before starting new threads which replicate subjects that have already been discussed extensively in previous threads. This allows you to ask more sensible questions (eg, I'm using this approach and encountering this problem) rather than extremely generic questions that you can answer yourself by spending a little time reviewing existings posts or using the forum's search feature.
Also in future your might want to try being a little more specific before posting questions
Eg Define "very large". I know of customers who thing very large is 100K, and customers who think 4G is medium. I cannot tell from your post what size your files are.
What is the content of the file. Is it going to be loaded into a single record, or a a single table, or will it need to be loaded into multiple records in a single table or multiple records in multiple tables ?
Do you really need to load the data into exsiting relational tables or could your application work with relational views of the XML Content.
Finally which release of the database are you working with.
Define performance. Is it reasonable to expect to process this kind of document on this machine (Make, memory, #number of CPUs, CPU Speed, number of discs) in this period of time.
WRT to your original question. If you take a few minutes to search this forum you will find a very large number of threads with very similar titles to yours. These theads document a number of different approaches that can be used to solve this problem.
I suggest you start by looking for threads that cover topics like DBMS_XMLSTORE, XMLTable(), Relational Views of XML content, loading XML content in relational tables.

Since the two date attributes are coming in the W3C's xs:date format, you can directly define the corresponding columns as DATE and use a DATE projection in XMLTable :
SQL> alter table try1 modify (fechainicio date);
Table altered
SQL> alter table try1 modify (fec date);
Table altered
SQL>
SQL> insert into try1 (codprev, fechainicio, fec, couta, idperio, caj)
2 select x.codprev, x.fechainicio, x.fec, x.couta, x.idperio, x.caj
3 from xmltable(
4         xmlnamespaces(default 'PBcion.Caja')
5       , '/cajas/caj'
6         passing xmltype(bfilename('TEST_DIR','try_xm3.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8'))
7         columns codPrev     number       path '@codPrev'
8               , fechaInicio date         path '@fechaInicio'
9               , fec         date         path '@fec'
10               , couta       number       path '@couta'
11               , idPerio     number       path '@idPerio'
12               , caj         number       path '@caj'
13       ) x
14 ;
1 row inserted

How to insert XML/dtd data into oracle db

Hi,
I have posted this question on couple
sites and unfortunately I haven't received
any response. Hopefully this time,
someone can at least direct me to the
website/document/sample codes which can provide me solutions of my question.
My question is:
Given a DTD, can the XML SQL Utility generate
the database schema?
I am trying to find out how the XML data can
be loaded into the oracle database.
Thanks in advance,
Judy

A DTD does not contain enough information to do a good job at creating a database schema. It contains no datatype information, no field length information for starters, so a table created by a hypothetical DTD->to->Tables utility would be at best able to create a table with all VARCHAR2(4000) columns. Not that useful.
My book contains lots of examples of techniques for loading XML data into Oracle, include lots of sample code and a whole chapter devoted to building a flexible "XMLLoader" utility for loading XML of arbitrary size into the database.
