See the "NOTE" at the bottom of the following FAQ post...
{message:id=9360005}
As Tom Kyte himself says, don't use undocumented functions.
And that post also gives links to all the various methods to aggregate or pivot data.

How to convert single column into single row

I need to convert single column into single row having n no.of.values in a column. without using case or decode. I need a query to display as below.
emp_id
100
101
102
102
103
200
I need output like 100,101,102,103,104.........200.

I assume you want to convert 200 rows with one column into one row with 200 columns. If so, this is called pivot. If you know number of rows (max possible number of rows) and you are on 11G you can use PIVOT operator (on lower versions GROUP BY + CASE). Otherwise, if row number isn't known, you can use dynamic SQL or assemble select on clent side. Below is example emp_id = 1,2,..5 (to give you idea) and you are on 11G:
with emp as (
             select level emp_id
               from dual
               connect by level <= 5
select *
from emp
pivot(
        max(emp_id) for emp_id in (1 emp_id1,2 emp_id2,3 emp_id3,4 emp_id4,5 emp_id5)
   EMP_ID1    EMP_ID2    EMP_ID3    EMP_ID4    EMP_ID5
         1          2          3          4          5

If you understand how SQL statements are executed it's along these lines...
1. Open Cursor
2. Parse SQL statement and determine columns
3. Bind in any input values
4. Fetch data
5. Bind out values to columns
6. Repeat step 3 until no more data
7. Close cursor
Now, you're expecting that you can determine the columns (step 2) from the fetched data (step 4 onwards). You can't. The SQL engine needs to know the expected columns before any data is fetched so, it can't base the number of columns on the data itself.
If you need that requirement, you would need to query the data first and build up a dynamic query based on the data and then execute that dynamically built query to fetch the data and pivot it into those columns, which means that you have queried the data twice. Not good practice and not good (or simple) coding.
What you're talking of doing is something that should be handled at the presentation/interface layer, not as part of the data fetch.
Typically these sorts of things are handled most easily in report generation/writer tools such as Oracle Reports, Business Objects etc. where they fetch the data from the database and then process it to format it on the display, pivoting the results as required.
It's not something that lends itself to be easily achieved in SQL. Yes, SQL can do pivoting of data quite easily, but NOT with a dynamic number of columns.
If you were to specify that there is a maximum number of columns that you could get (rather than wanting it dynamic), then you can do it simply in SQL with the max-decode method...

Merge multiple rows into single row (but multiple columns)

How to merge multiple rows into single row (but multiple columns) efficiently.
For example
IDVal IDDesc IdNum Id_Information_Type Attribute_1 Attribute_2 Attribute_3 Attribute_4 Attribute_5
23 asdc 1 Location USA NM ABQ Four Seasons 87106
23 asdc 1 Stats 2300 91.7 8.2 85432
23 asdc 1 Audit 1996 June 17 1200

65 affc 2 Stats 5510 42.7 46 9999
65 affc 2 Audit 1996 July 172 1100
where different attributes mean different thing for each Information_type.
For example for Information_Type=Location
Attribute_1 means Country
Attribute_2 means State and so on.
For example for Information_Type=Stats
Attribute_1 means Population
Attribute_2 means American Ethnicity percentage and so on.
I want to create a view that shows like below:
IDVal IDDesc IDNum Country State City Hotel ZipCode Population American% Other% Area Audit Year AuditMonth Audit Type AuditTime

Hi,
That's called Pivoting . The forum FAQ has a section on this subject: {message:id=9360005}
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post your best attempt, along with a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and also post the results you want from that data. (You did post the results you wanted, but they're very hard to read because they're not formatted. Use \ tags, as described in the forum FAQ, below.)
Explain, using specific examples, how you get the results you want from the data given.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (e.g., 11.2.0.2.0). This is always important, but especially so with pivots.
See the forum FAQ {message:id=9360002}

-How to restrict Description into single row in the report

Hello Colleagues
I have a report which shows Material number versus Revenue. In the row, material is displayed with Technical name and description.
Here, the view of the report shows the description in single line. While, in the report, description of the report runs 3 to 4 lines though description contains 5 to 6 words (which can fit easily into single line).
Let me know how to restrict each row descrption into single line.
Regards,
Ningaraju

Hello Colleagues
Please find the format it is currently appearing in the web reports.

ALV - Multiple Rows into Single Row

I have a requirement to display the ALV output from CDHDR&CDPOS tables here in the output i have 15 columns( Fields ) any changes im displaying in report output ,but if there is same time multiple columns will change im displaying as individual record instead of that i need to show as single row.
in this output last three records have same time change but i have populated into three different columns i want to make it as SINGLE Row Record.
Thanks!!

We don't need script task for this. Use TSQL in the datasource. Refer below example
DECLARE @TEMP TABLE(ID INT, [VALUE] NVARCHAR(30))
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(1 , 'MAZ')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(1 , 'HON')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(1 , 'FOR')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(2 , 'JEEP')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(2 , 'CHE')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(3 , 'NIS')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(4 , 'GMC')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(4 , 'ACC')
INSERT INTO @TEMP VALUES(4 , 'LEX')
SELECT [id],
Stuff((SELECT ',' + [VALUE]
FROM @TEMP
WHERE [id] = a.[id]
FOR xml path('')), 1, 1, '') [VALUE]
FROM @TEMP a
GROUP BY [id]

Alternative way to fetch the data into single row.

we have a query
SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM USER_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_NAME='XXX';
This query will return the data in multiple rows.
May know the alternative way to retrieve all the multiple rows in **single row with each row as a seperate column**.

To achieve this i have tried with multiple Field routines , but data is not populating for all partner fields .
Out put in DSO
Customer Divis DistChan   Flag   Partner1    Partner1 Name Partner2     Partner2 Name Partner3     Partner3 Name Partner4     Partner4 Name

Thank you so much for your replies
@ Raf Rule group will update data into multiple rows ..

Shown in above data
3.Also you are not sure whether the data from source is always consistent like    5 distribution channels, 5 flags etc. - in data i will have only 5 different flag value -F1,F2,F3,F4,F5
I am wondered to know why multiple field routines are not working ....

The group will be either X or Y only.
Can anyone help me out pls
tnx

Combine 2 rows into single row?

I have a table A which has information related to a process. For process completion there exist 2 rows. One has in it the total elapsed time, the time the entire process (which is multipart) begin and end time, but the columns related to rows processed are blank. Another related row has a start, end and elapsed time in it -- which I don't want -- but it has the row counts that I do want.
I want to take these 2 rows, combine the relevant information into 1 row and insert that row into table B.
I know I could insert from the first row and then come back and update it from the second row, but I hate having to read Table A twice. Any suggestions?

Multi-select LOV return into single row

I have a multi-select lov setup on a column in a table layout. I want to be able to select the lov, select multiple rows in the lov and then when I press the select button in the lov window to have those lov records select return to the same column. Currently, the lov returns the multi lov records into multiple records on my table layout.

IN JHeadstart 10.1.3, we will add the option to return multiple selected values as a comma-separated list into the same field. With 10.1.2 this is not possible. You can implement this yourself by overriding method JhsDataAction.onLovSelect.
