Inserting multiple records into a single mysql entry

I am creating a glossary for a website. The main database table for this glossary includes fields such as the term, alternative names (for the term- synonyms), and the definition. Some terms have multiple alternative terms. For example,
term=x
alternative names= a, b, and c
definition= whatever
I want to create a search query that will bring up term x whether the user searches for x, a, b, or c.
The problem is that all a, b, and c are entered into the same mysql field (alternative names) and should the user search for just 'a' or just 'b', the search will come up blank. This is because that field has all three alternative names and the search will only show term x if the user searches for either 'x' or 'a,b, and c' together. How can I get the database to realize that there are multiple independant records in that field?
p.s. I would rather not have to create three seperate fields for alternative terms as there can potentially be much more.

figured it out. I changed the ...OR (alternative names = colname) in the recordset to ...OR (alternative names LIKE %colname%). Works like a charm now- the result of a good night's sleep.

Insert multiple records into a table(Oracle 9i) from a single PHP statement

How can I insert multiple records into a table(Oracle 9i) from a single PHP statement?
From what all I've found, the statement below would work if I were using MySQL:
     insert into scen
     (indx,share,expire,pitch,curve,surface,call)
     values
     (81202, 28, 171, .27, 0, 0, 'C' ),
     (81204, 28, 501, .25, 0, 0, 'C' ),
     (81203, 17, 35, .222, 0, 0, 'C' ),
     (81202, 28, 171, .27, 2, 0, 'C' ),
     (81204, 28, 501, .20, 0, 1, 'C' ),
     (81203, 28, 135, .22, 1, 0, 'C' )
The amount of records varies into the multiple-dozens. My aim is to utilize the power of Oracle while avoiding the i/o of dozens of single-record inserts.
Thank you,
Will

You could look at the INSERT ALL statement found in the documentation here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/statements_913a.htm#2133161
My personal opinion is that you probably won't see any benefit because under the hood I think Oracle will still be doing single row inserts. I could be wrong though.
The only way to confirm was if you did a test of multiple inserts vs an INSERT ALL, that is if the INSERT ALL met your requirements.

Concatenate multiple records into one single record

Hello everyone,
Can anyone guide me how to merge multiple records into one single record
like......... I am getting the data in the file like
aaaaa/bbbbbbb/ccccccccccc/dddddddddddd/eee
ffffff/gggg/hhhhhhhhhhhhhh
/123/4567/55555/99999999/kaoabfa/eee
fffff/kkkkkkkk/llllllllllllllllllllllll
when i use gui_upload I am getting the data into the internal table in the above format.
My main intension is to split the record at / to multiple lines and dowload it into another file.
What i am planning to do is... if the line does not start with / then i want to concatenate the multiple lines into single line and then split it into multiple records. Can anyone guide me how to achieve this.

Yes, it should work.
In my example
Loop at itab.
concatenate i_text itab into i_text.
endloop.
You change that loop for the loop of your internal table with the file records
So if you have this three records
'aaaa/bbb/ccc'
'/dddd/efg'
'hijk/lmn'
i_text will look like this at the end
'aaaa/bbb/ccc/dddd/efghijk/lmn'
then in this part of the code
split i_text at '/' into table itab2.
itab2 will have the records looking like this
aaaa
bbb
ccc
dddd
efghijk
lmn'

Insert multiple records into Oracle using Java

Hi,
Has anyone tried to insert multiple records into an Oracle table from Java? I have my data in a Java collection.Can I send a Java Collection to an Oracle Package as a PL/SQL Table Type? My problem is I dont want to instantiate a CallableStatement object everytime I do an insert. Instead I want to do that only once and then insert multiple records in one operation.
Any suggestions will be appreciated,
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Mensa,
I went thru the code example in your book in chapter 8 (downloaded it from OTN). It looks like the java code for "public class myPLSQLIndexTab" might be a java stored procedure stored in the oracle database?
Pardon my ignorance because I've never worked on java code in the oracle database itself but how would I call such a program outside the oracle database? For example say I have a batch job that downloads data from a webservice and that batch job is written in java and its sitting on a batch server somewhere on the network. But the java program that inserts data into the database is sitting in the oracle database (also somewhere in the same network). How can the java code sitting on the batch server talk to the java code sitting on the oracle server? Is it the same as calling a pl/sql package using CallableStatement?
Thanks
Alex

Can you use ESB to insert multiple records into a Database

We have an XML file that has a Parent/Child relationship.
In situation 1 we have a single parent record in the xml file. We can insert the record into the database successfully.
In situation 2 we have a parent and a an associated child record. By using a filter expression to identify the existence of the child record we can route to the first DB Adapter to insert the parent then to the second DB Adapter to insert the child.
Is this final scenario logical and also possible.
Situation 3 we have multiple child records associated to a single parent. So we would first insert the parent record then insert all the child records.
Thanks

I use PL/SQL for this if you are using Oracle.
Have a look at this post, it is for AQ but the concept can be used for PL/SQL
Re: Can I pass a pl/sql table as a parameter from a database adaptor
I will send you an example

Inserting Multiple Records into two table

I want to insert records from a ADF swing form into two tables. In the first table the primary key is generated by a trigger and then I need to retrieve the primary id generated and then insert multiple records in another table using the primarykey obtained from the first table as foreign key.
How to do this ?

User,
If you're using ADF Business components, have a read on the DBSequence data type. If you have two VO's linked by a view link, and the FK is a DBSequence type, all this happens for you out-of-the-box.
Hope this helps,
john

How to insert multiple queries into a single worksheet of same dataprovider

Hello friends,
My question is same as this.I want to know how to create a single worksheet(workbook) embedded with multiple queries of same DATA PROVIDER with different VARIABLES assigned to each query.
Please,send me the relevant steps.
Regards,
Mohan Chand Reddy A

Hi,
You need to create one query workbook and rest of the queries you can insert manually from Bex tool -
insert query.
You need to insert query by adding one more tab in the workbook.
Keep in mind only one thing that variable ..if you are going to keep variable it will keep on popping up for user entry in it.
So try to have common variable in the first query and then those value needs to get fed into other query variable as they are running so without any user entry while execution we can see results in all the queries in the workbook.
If you want to insert a query into a new workbook:
Choose the symbol for Open...from the BEx toolbar. This brings you to the screen Open SAP BEx:
Select Queries from the left column.
Select a query from all those available. The queries are arranged according to InfoProviders.
Double-click on the required query or choose OK.
If you want to insert a query into the active workbook:
Open a workbook and, from the BEx toolbar, choose Tools ® Insert Query.... The query is then inserted into the current worksheet starting at the active cell.
If you want to insert a query into a workbook template:
Create a workbook template.
Insert the query into the workbook template.
Thanks and regards

Mapping is inserting multiple records from a single source to Dimension.

Hi All,
I am very new to OWB. Please help me out. I've created Dimension with the help of the wizard and then a mapping which consist of single source and single dimension. The mapping is populating nearly 500 times of the actual records. Following are some details to give you a better understanding of mapping: I created a dimension with four levels and two hierarchy. Levels are L1, L2, L3 and L4 and hierarchies are H1-> L1, L2 and L4
and H2-> L3 and L4. L4 is lowest level of hierarchy. L1 and L3 are parent levels in the respective hierarchies. I assigned an attribute of each level as Business identifier that means business identifier attribute is different in each level. In mapping I mapped the parent natural key(Key for parent Level in a hierarchy) as the value which has been mapped for parent level. The result is coming 500 times of the record that exist in source table. I've tried even single common business identifier for each level but again the result is 5 times of the records. Please let me know the solution.
Thanks is advance.
Amit

Hi ,
You may not be having multiple records in your dimension.
To understand better the records insertion, try a snow flake version of the dimension and see how the records are inserted as per the levels in the respective tables.
Thanks

Combining multiple records into a single record (View)

Okay so here is my scenerio:
There is a table I have made that details SQL jobs and the various details about them. What i wan't to do is make a view with specific logic implemented. Fields that will be taken across to this view will be: LastRunDate, LastRunTime and Step_Status.
JobName will also be used to define the logic but will not be a column in itself.
What i wan't is an additional column using this logic, called 'DataSet'. For each Dataset there are multiple jobs that are unique to it, so there are multiple records being brought over from the table to view for one particular dataset. For example,
for 'ExampleDataSet' there are three jobs, i wan't it so these jobs are combined and named as 'ExampleDataSet' under a calculated column called 'Dataset'. For the following fields i would like it so that LastRunDate and LastRunTime are the time in whichever
job was last to be intitiated is the date and time set. For Step_Status, there are three possible results, 'Running', 'Failed' or 'Succeeded'. If any of the three jobs are 'Running', then 'Running'. If neither are running yet one has failed then 'Failed'.
Only when all three have succeeded should it then be set to 'Succeeded'.
I hope i have made that clear enough, please feel free to ask any questions if not. I am relatively new to SQL but i thought to at least try least try (I knew it wouldn't work) and it didn't work. But it may give you a better idea of
what i wan't:
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[vw_DataAvailabilityAnalysts] AS
SELECT CASE
WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') and step_status='Running' THEN 'Running'
WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') and step_status='Failed' THEN 'Failed'
WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3) and step_status='Succeeded' THEN 'Succeeded'
END as StatusCheck,
CASE WHEN JobName in ('Job1','Job2','Job3') THEN 'ExampleDataSet'
END as DATASET,
LastRunDate,
lastruntime,
step_status,
FROM [CDS_Common].[dbo].[DataAvailability]
Many Thanks,
Plain_Clueless
Plain_Clueless

Okay so here is what my table looks like (Simplified). There are four columns and the data within is extracted via a Stored Procedure.
JobName
LastRunDate
LastRunTime
Step_Status
Job1
11/06/2014
09:30:00
Succeeded
Job1
10/06/2014
09:37:20
Succeeded
Job2
11/06/2014
04:05:00
Succeeded
Job1
09/06/2014
02:17:41
Succeeded
As you can see there are 3 jobs which are all 'Job1'. This jobs are obviously different within the table however this represents that they are jobs which all update the same DataSet within our local warehouse. Whereas Job2 updates a different dataset alltogether.
I wan't to create a view which will alagmate the jobs that are of the same DataSet, which will disclude the column JobName but would create a whole new column that looks like this:
DataSet
LastRunDate
LastRunTime
Step_Status
DataSet2
11/06/2014
04:05:00
Succeeded
DataSet1
11/06/2014
09:30:00
Succeeded
Bascically what this shows you is all the Job 1's combined so they are one record, Amaglamated. The last time any of these jobs were run is the LastRunDate & LastRunTime, which was the first record in the first table provided. Again for Step_Status,
there are three possible results, 'Running', 'Failed' or 'Succeeded'. If any of the three jobs are 'Running', then 'Running' (Absolute). If none of the three jobs are running yet one has failed then 'Failed'. If one has failed yet another is also running then
'Running'.Only when all three have succeeded should it then be set to 'Succeeded'. (This last bit isn't as important).
Hope this clears it up a bit,

How to insert multiple records into a table?

hi all
i have a table that name is : TiketsItem
now i want to 100 records insert my table
for example : TicketsHeaderRef=52000
Active=False
TicketsItemId=45000 to 45100
how to insert TicketsItemId 45000 to 45100 in my table
thanks all
Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful and He created the human

So, you just want to insert the serialized data into the table, without useDate or WKRef? I'm assuming these values will be updated later?
Try something like this:
DECLARE @TicketsHeader TABLE (TicketsItemID BIGINT, ticketsHeaderRef BIGINT, active BIT, useDate DATETIME, WKRef SMALLINT)
DECLARE @startInt BIGINT = 45000
WHILE @startInt <= 45100
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @TicketsHeader (TicketsItemID, ticketsHeaderRef, active)
VALUES (52000, @startInt, 0)
SET @startInt = @startInt + 1
END
SELECT *
FROM @TicketsHeader
thanks
i edited your codes:
DECLARE @TicketsItem TABLE (TicketsItemID BIGINT, ticketsHeaderRef BIGINT, active BIT, useDate DATETIME, WKRef SMALLINT)
DECLARE @startInt BIGINT = 45000
WHILE @startInt <= 45100
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @TicketsItem (TicketsItemID, ticketsHeaderRef, active)
VALUES (@startInt,52000 , 0)
SET @startInt = @startInt + 1
END
when i execute:
SELECT * FROM TiketsItem
i do not see any records inserted in TiketsItem
how to solve it?
