Limit the number of rows

Hi,
If a query is returning 100 rows in a table, but I want to show just 10 and prompt to the next 10 in the next page, how do I do that?
When I am in the pivot table , in the section properties I saw an option "Insert page break", but it doesn't work.
Is this the only option I have?
Thanks and Regards
Giuliano

add a column with code
CASE WHEN RCOUNT(1) < 11 THEN ‘1-10′
WHEN RCOUNT(1) < 21 THEN ‘11-20′
WHEN RCOUNT(1) < 31 THEN ‘21-30′
ELSE ‘30+’ END
and put it in the page section.

How to limit the number of rows in a report

I have several reports with a number of parameters - date ranges etc.
Depending on the parameter values selected by the user the reports can return thousands of rows.
I would like to limit the number of rows returned to, say, 500. If more than 500 rows are returned by the query then display an error message requesting that the user enter more specific parameters.
Ideally for performance reasons it would be good to catch the error before the datafile is generated, but I don't know if this is possible. Alternatively a check in the template might do the job - using COUNT on the group?.

Hi Hugh,
In your query, you got to add rowum < 500 or some sort of DB specific limit to the row being returned,
this will help to stop the report to get more than 500 records and the report template wont have any restriction.
or
you can do that in template too, but i would not recommend.
In these both cases or in any case, you cannot give any meaningful error if it exceeds N rows,there is no option like this till now.

How do I limit the number of rows retrieved at a time using RefCursor?

I have a PL/SQL package in use, that returns a REF CURSOR. This is currently being used in a Forms 6i application. Now I want to develop an ASP.NET web application that displays exactly the same information as my Forms 6i module. In fact those two applications will be used concurrently for a while.
I looked at the sample code provided on otn.oracle.com and decided to use the OracleDataAdapter.Fill()-method to fill a dataset and bind that dataset to a pageable GridView. Now I wonder, whether this method retrieves ALL records of the query at once and how I can limit the number of rows fetched? The Select statement retrieves up to 10000 rows at a time. Most of the time, a user is only interested in the first 20-30 rows. Forms 6i fetches more rows as the user scrolls down, how can I implement the same behavior in ODP.NET?

Excuse me, but the reply does not quite answer my question. Maybe I did not explain my concerns clear enough:
I understand the use of the two properties (RowSize and FetchSize) to reduce the amount of round trips needed to transfer the data - not the number of rows fetched in total. This would still lead to a situation where all rows are transferred, when I am using the OracleDataAdapter.Fill()-Method. Is this correct or did I misunderstand the function of this method?
I quote the otherwise really helpful article you send me:
Of course, there is a cost if the fetch size is arbitrarily large. More client-side memory and processor cycles will be needed to store and manage a larger amount of data. The goal is to find a high-performing balance between the number of round trips and the amount of data retrieved per trip.
My RowSize is for sure a bit larger than the one in the given example. The query will probably be used by up to 100 users at a time, so I would like to limit the resource-costs not only on the network by the number of round trips, but also on the web-server which is storing all these records in it's memory per user-request.

How to limit the number of rows in a smart form , sap script.

Can anyone tell me how to limit the number of rows in the output of a sap script/smart form. I have tried "protect/endprotect" in sap script but have no idea of how to do in smart form. In sap script the only way it has happened is by reducing the size of the main window.

Hi,
In Smartform also, why dont you try reducing the size of the window if you want to limit the rows in it. Also if you are printing Line Items in a LOOP, you can write
LOOP AT T_ITAB FROM 1 TO N in the LOOP Node if you know how many records exactly you want to display in 1 Page processing.

How can I limit the number of rows returned by a select stat

How can I limit the number of rows returned by a select
statement. I have a query where I return the number of stores
that are located in a given area.. I only want to return the
first twenty-five stores. In some instances there may be over
200 stores in a given location.
I know is SQL 7 that I can set the pagesize to be 25....
Anything similiar in Oracle 8i?

: If you are in Sql*Plus, you could add the statement

: Used together with an appropriate ORDER BY you

Watch out. ROWNUM is run before ORDER BY so this would only
order the 25 selected

Can I limit the number of rows returned on a Select?

Can I limit the number of rows returned on a Select statement? I would be using JDBC in a Java program.

Use Java prepared statements with the equivalent of this SQL*plus script:
VARIABLE n number
EXEC :n := 3;
SELECT rownum FROM all_objects WHERE rownum <= :n;
    ROWNUM
         1
         2
         3
EXEC :n := 5;
SELECT rownum FROM all_objects WHERE rownum <= :n;
    ROWNUM
         1
         2
         3
         4
         5

Need to know how to limit the number of rows returned on Oracle

MS SQL Server has a command called 'set row count'.
We are trying to find similar one on Oracle.
What we are trying to do is that instead of using rownum in the query statement, we would like to find way to limit the number of rows returned. I understand that we can use JDBC resultSet object, but that's not what we want.
I know Oracle has one called arraysize, but this would not limit the number of rows returned either.
Pease help.
Thanks

I understand that we can use JDBC resultSet object, but that's not what we want.I'm not sure which feature of ResultSet you use and which not.
But if this question has anything to do with JDBC (that's the forum where you put it), I'd recommend to use Statement.setMaxRows(). This will limit the count of rows which your statement will fetch into it's ResultSet.

How do you limit the number of rows return from query?

How do you limit the number of rows return from query? Do all databases support this kind of feature?

i think the standard is limit
to get the top 30
select * from mytable LIMIT 30;returns the first 30 rows
also if you want a range
select * from mytable LIMIT 10,30;returns 30 rows starting from 10
this last one is useful for displaying ranges... something similar happens in these forums when viewing topics and messages

How to limit the number of rows in the Custom Control box

Hi All,
In my Module pool screen I have a Custom Control box for providing some free text as input. Now, there is no limit in the number of rows allowed for this box.
But, the requirement is, it should have the maximum number of rows = 99. and each row should have maximum length = 60 characters.
User should not be allowed to enter more than 60 characters per row and more than 99 rows.
Could you please let me know how to do this..? Are there any methods available which controls the maximum number of rows and maximum length per row..?
Please help me in resolving the issue. Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Paddu.

By "Custom Control Box", do you mean a Custom Container or a Table Control?
Anyway, I suggest you to use a table control (not a custom container as your requirement seems to be very precise on that point, maybe ask your client twice to make sure). Look at the examples of table controls in ABAPDOCU transaction.

Classic Report limit the number of rows displayed

Hi All,
In my application I have a classic Report which show the data of a simple query. For lay-out reasons I want to limit the number of display to 5 instead of the default 15. I've looked in several forums and they told me that I have to set the number of rows in the report attributes.
But it did not what I want. I'm Using APEX 4.1.0 on a Oracle 11G database
My question is: How can I limit the maximum number of rows in a classic SQL Report.

But it did not what I want. I'm Using APEX 4.1.0 on a Oracle 11G databaseHow did it not do what you want? Displayed an error? Displayed no rows? Displayed 15 rows? Displayed some other number of rows? We can only help if we fully understand the nature of the problem.
My question is: How can I limit the maximum number of rows in a classic SQL Report.To display 5 rows per page set the report's Number of Rows attribute to *5*.

How can I limit the number of rows in Oracle?

Hi All,
I am using very complex query where I join 6 table to fetch data from database.
I have requirement like fetching a first 10000 row and then fetching another records after 10000 and so on.
I just want to know how to fetch a limited number of rows using sql query. Moreover, I also want to know how to calculate the total number of row (alternative of count method because I don't want to query the database twice because its affect the performance).
Thanks in advance.

Sunny

SunnyThis smells like a very fishy requirement based on a fundamental misunderstanding of how Oracle works. Could you explain why you want to arbitrarily limit the result set to 1000 rows? What will happen between that and getting the "next" 1000? What triggers getting the "next" 1000? and how do you define "next", since there is no ordering in a heap table.
I suspect we can make that requirement go away be presenting a better approach to the real issue.

Limit the number of Rows in View Obj

Hi,
I use jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0
I have a View Obj with more than 100 rows, when I drag it as table in my page, I want to display only 10 first row. I know I can set it in the tuning part of View Obj but I can't use this way,
because I have more than one instance of this View Obj in Application Module and I want to do it only for one instance.
I tried to use FetchSize and RangeSize but none of them didn't work
Habib

You can setup MaxFetchSize=10 for a particular VO instance in the data model of the ApplicationModule. Go to "Data Model" page of the ApplicationModule definition, select the necessary VO instance and click the button "Edit ..." above the list of VO instances. "Edit View Instance" dialog will open. Go to "Tunning" page of the dialog and configure "Only up to row number" = 10. In this way you will setup MaxFetchSize=10 for this VO instance only. The other VO instances of the same VO definition will remain unaffected.

Limit the number of record to download to excel from a report

I am just wondering if there is a way to limit the number of rows that I want to download to excel from a report in apex, right now when I click download to excel it downloads all records. If I am displaying 15 records on report page I want the ability to download only those records.
Any help with that would be appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Sofia.

Sofia,
The same report query runs for downloading the data into excel, I don't think you can limit the number of records in download.
You can achieve it using custom code, like on click of download excel redirect to another page and then restrict the data as per your need, or you can use the custom procedure to download the limited data.

How can I limit the number of ros in TextArea?

As I turn on the line wrap and having used setRows method,
I cannot limit the number of rows of the textarea into 2.
How can I limit it?
Thanks.

camickr wrote:
I give up. You don't know specify requirements and I'm not going to prompt you every 5 minutes for more information.
due to setText method So this implies that the text comes from somewhere, maybe a database, but the user does not type the text directly into the text area.
If you define the text area with 2 rows, then the third row will not be visible, so I don't see the problem. Just don't add the text area to a scroll pane and the user will never know the third row is there.[http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z55/nwoedf/temp/error.png ]
it demonstrates the problem with excess line
The third row is still visible even I have used setRow(2).

Limit the no of rows in output

I tried two options to limit the number of rows displayed in the output. Unfortunately both of them is giving errors. What is wrong?
Example code is below
SQL> SELECT TOP 5 * FROM EMP;
SELECT TOP 5 * FROM EMP
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00923: FROM keyword not found where expected
SQL> SELECT * FROM EMP LIMIT 5;
SELECT * FROM EMP LIMIT 5
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended

Oracle does not support the SQL Server TOP N syntax nor the (MySQL?) LIMIT N syntax.
In Oracle, you can do
SELECT *
FROM( SELECT * FROM emp ORDER BY empno )
WHERE rownum <= 5to get the first 5 rows ordered by EMPNO. Note that it generally doesn't make sense to limit the number of rows without an ORDER BY since you're then getting an arbitrary N rows.
