LOV Return To More Than One Column

Hello,
How could I return LOV values to more than one column?
I created a dynamic LOV based on sql statement. I would like to return more than one values to multiple columns in my page.
E.g. When user selects employee number name, department and location to return to respective columns.
Any help is highly appreciated.
I am using APEX 3.2.0.
Thanks

How to create combobox to display more than one columns

I need kind help with the following question. As the combobox includes two pieces--textbox and the combobox list. Then how to create a combo box bean, which is based on table EMP(empno number(6), ename varchar2(40)) records for example, to achieve these features:
1) allow more than one columns to be displayed in its records list--e.g., I need to show these records:
empno (value) ename (label)
103 David M Baker
104 David M Baker
105 Kelly J Volpe
106 Krista F Carpenter
107 Michelle P Silverman
The two 'David M Baker's are different employees, but unfortunately, with the same name.
2) allow combo box list to return the column value 'empno' even though it shows both columns as above. i.e., if user picks the second record above, then the combobox list returns 104 to the textbox in the background, but the 'David M Baker' is displayed on the textbox. Of course the combobox list may return 'David M Baker' if needed when there is only one column in the list as the current standard feature.
3)allow partial match search by typing in some letters. i.e., if user types in the textbox of the combobox letter 'K' or 'k' then the partially matched records
105 Kelly J Volpe
106 Krista F Carpenter
should be automatically displayed in the combobox list, not the whole list as above; then user may double click to choose one of the two or if user continues to type in 'R' or 'r', then the uniquely matched record 'Krista F Carpenter' is displayed in the textbox and the 106 is returned to the textbox.
4) as a bonus if it's doable, allow combobox to return values to different textboxes when its records list has more than one columns.
The reason I need these features is that I am working on the project migrated from Microsoft Access applications to centralized Java version web application. We at beginning promised to users community that Java swing will provide all the GUI user friendly features Microsoft Access has, but now we got stucked--we ate our words and got tons of complains from our users community. This is just the most needed component I posted here. I really hope that Java would add all the default GUI user-friendly features to compete with MS since its Win95 GUI has been accepted as industry standard. And most users are used to it. They claimed that they don't know and don't care what tool you use the newly created application should be more user friendly, not the opposite.
I would be very much appreciated if any one would help me with this item.

Thanks for your comments. I think nobody expects Sun to write everything including special features for its components. But I do think Sun should provide at least those standard user-friendly features for the GUI components because most users have been used to the GUI user-friendly features provided by Win95 and Access/Excel applications. Then this will help us to productively create applications to beat MS applications.
Other wise like me, to get the existing GUI features, existed in old MS Access application, for our migrated Java application, I must re-create the GUI components library first which is a big burden to me at least, for others it might be fun for coding on their own from scratch, but I have to focus on the timing of project.
If you really can pass the request to Sun and push them move a bit, please pass these words: before Sun starts to revise them, please play around window GUI, e.g., Access/Excel applications, then plan what to do, the bottom line is to equally match or better than them in FUNCTIONALITY(Look and feel is not my focus here). Don't ignore the influence of Windows regardless of you hate it or love it, the reality is most users are so familiar with windows GUI features which are accepted as industry standard. Thus the choice is to match or better to beat them. Don't make your car by closing your door, don't assume users will like what you come out in a closed room.

Select distinct('more than one column') from ....

Why does this sql statement not work:
select distinct(column_a, column_b, column_c), empno
from emp;
How can I 'select distinct' using more than one column.

Actually, DISTINCT applies to all columns in the result.
Distinct is not a function, you cannot do distinct(column1, column2, ...).
As a matter of fact it doesn't make sense to expect distinct applies to only one column, because you do not specify any criteria on how to select the values for the second column.
A final note: you can do distinct(column1), column2, but this will still apply to both columns!
Here're some examples that will all return both rows from the set, where set is: (1,1), (1,2):
select distinct val1, val2
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual
select distinct val1||'-'||val2
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual
select distinct(val1), val2 -- this is very misleading. distinct still applies to both columns
from
select 1 as val1, 1 as val2 from dual
union all
select 1 as val1, 2 as val2 from dual

One Key FIgure in more than one column with different restrictions

Hi,
I am using a key figure in more than one column with different restrictions, but restriction in one column is affecting the result in other column. What shall i do to make it independent from one another??

Hi Pravender Chauhan,
If you want in Single column different value for different Rows based on same Key Figure, you can create Structure where you can define different logic for each row but using same key figure.
If you want to use different Key figures then you should have to Restricted Key Figure and for any calculation you can use calculated Key figure.
Assign points if Useful.

Rajdeep.

ALV to select more than one column by row using set_table_for_first_display

Hello everyone,
I am developing an application (ALV OO) to select more than 1 column by row ( one ). This is an a holiday application so the idea is:
-One column will be the day, and the row will be the user.
So I am trying to select more than one day by user (that would be the row).
I am using the method set_table_for_first_display but when it shows the alv, doesn't let me to select more than one column with a click of the mouse.
Does anybody know if I can do this (select more than one column, by row) in somehow?
Please let me know if you need more clarification about this.
Thanks in advance
Diego

Hi Diego,
it's all in the documentation.
set different selection modes through the value of the field u201CSEL_MODEu201D in the layout structure.
SPACE
same as 'B'
see 'B'
Default setting
'A'
Column and row selection
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
The user selects the rows through pushbuttons at the left border of the grid control.
'B'
Simple selection, list box
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
'C'
Multiple selection, list box
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
'D'
Cell selection
Multiple columns
Multiple rows
Any cells
The user selects the rows through pushbuttons at the left border of the grid control
Beyond setting this option, you can set u201CNO_ROWMARKu201D option to hide the mark column which is normally visible when the selection mode allows multiple row selection.
One point to notice here is that if you set your ALV Grid as to be editable, it may override your selection mode regardless of your layout settings.

More than one column retrieved in "report and form" page

HELLO!
let's see if anybody can help me with this... i'm sure it's a stupid problem but i really don't know how to solve it.
when i create a new application with APEX, i want to add a "report and form" page. i select the table where de data is, and then click on add page. then i go to the page definition for the form that just has been created but there's no option for selecting more than one column as the link column...
i mean, i want to show a report with all the columns from the table and then, by selecting one of them, the form should display that column but the problem is that the primary key of the table is formed by 6 columns and i always receive the "more than one column retrieved" message as it's trying to retrieve the information using only one column. is there any way to make the link column be composed by 6 or 7 columns??

APEX can handle 2 primary key for one table (if you are using the automated fetch row and the automated process row).
In your case, you'll have to create your own "fetch process (page rendering)" and "DML process (page processing)".

Simple request... More than one column to organize tracks?!

Is it possible to organize tracks with more than one column, such as 'name' followed by 'comment', for example.. The way I have it now, each time you click on a new header, the last header cannot be used in combination, i.e. only the currently selected header can be used. Thanks!

strangelittleman,
I don't know of any way to do this, but I agree it would highly useful. (Like the sorting algorithms in word processors that let you sort by column 2 followed by column 6, etc., or whatever.)
Here is a work-around. If the column you use to arrange your songs, say song name, produces a fairly sizable listing for the same song (Louie Louie, for instance) and you want to organize that by artist name (to group the multiple versions done by Motorhead or IGGY POP, for instance), then just select the songs of a given name and copy them to a new playlist. Then select the artist name column to organize by that.
This is clumsy, and only useful if you have a large number of songs in the first sorting category (song name in the example above) and duplicates that you wish to detect in the second sorting category (artist name in the example above). But in some cases it may be helpful.

Take a look at this to see if the solution provided would work for you: https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/multi_column_row_woes
Won't you have more than 10 records in your data file ? If you are going to have only 10 items then you may be able to use position() function to limit it to 3 each..

Can I have one cell in a table extending over more than one column?

I'd like to be able to have a table in which some cells extend over more than one column.
In Word, I can just delete the right hand cell border, and the cell automatically stretches over the next column.
(Pages 5.2.2.)
Thanks

Pages v5 is not an MS Word clone, and therefore, it doesn't matter what you did in Word. Select the adjacent table column cells, and then either two-finger tap, or right-click and choose merge cells from the contextual menu.

Matching more than one column result

Hello again,
I'm using a Property/Estate agent database and one of the questions is: List pairs of buyers and properties whose expectation and feature set are exactly matching.
The way I designed the database was that each property is connected to a property_features table which is connected to a parent table features_list.
Similarly my buyer table is connected to a required_features table which is connected to the same features_list table
I need to match buyers and properties where their required and property features (can be more than one) match.
I have created queries that return the results for buyers and properties individually but I'm unsure how to link these queries to return only exact matches
select b.peid
from buyer b, features_list fl, required_features rf
where b.peid = rf.peid
and rf.fid = fl.fid;
select p.prid
from property p, features_list fl, property_features pf
where p.prid = pf.prid
and fl.fid = pf.fid;All tables used:
CREATE TABLE BUYER
     PEID CHAR(8) REFERENCES PERSON(PEID),
     MAX_PRICE NUMBER(9,2),
     CONSTRAINT BUYER_PK PRIMARY KEY(PEID)
CREATE TABLE FEATURES_LIST
     FID CHAR(5) CONSTRAINT FL_PK PRIMARY KEY,
     DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL
CREATE TABLE REQUIRED_FEATURES
     PEID CHAR(8) CONSTRAINT FK_PEID_RF REFERENCES PERSON(PEID),
     FID CHAR(5) CONSTRAINT FK_FID_RF REFERENCES FEATURES_LIST(FID),
     CONSTRAINT REQ_F_PK PRIMARY KEY(PEID, FID)
CREATE TABLE PROPERTY
     PRID CHAR(8) CONSTRAINT PR_PK PRIMARY KEY,
     BRID CHAR(5) CONSTRAINT PROPERTY_FK_BRANCH REFERENCES BRANCH(BRID),
     OWNER_ID CHAR(8) CONSTRAINT PROPERTY_FK_OWNER REFERENCES PERSON(PEID),
     PROP_TYPE CHAR(10) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT TYPE_CHECK CHECK (UPPER (PROP_TYPE) IN ('HOUSE', 'UNIT', 'TOWN_HOUSE', 'COMMERCIAL')),
     FIRST_LISTED DATE NOT NULL,
     STREET VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL,
     SUBURB VARCHAR2(30) NOT NULL,
     POST_CODE CHAR(4) NOT NULL
CREATE TABLE PROPERTY_FEATURES
     PRID CHAR(8) CONSTRAINT FK_PEID_PF REFERENCES PROPERTY(PRID),
     FID CHAR(5) CONSTRAINT FK_FID_PF REFERENCES FEATURES_LIST(FID),
     CONSTRAINT PROP_F_PK PRIMARY KEY(PRID, FID)
);Some sample output
select property.prid, property_features.fid, features_list.description
from property, property_features, features_list
where property_features.prid = property.prid
and property_features.fid = features_list.fid;
Results:
PR110011 FE002 family room
PR110011 FE003 modern kitchen
select buyer.peid, required_features.fid, features_list.description
from buyer, required_features, features_list
where required_features.peid = buyer.peid
and required_features.fid = features_list.fid;
Results:
PE110036 FE003 modern kitchen
PE110036 FE002 family roomSo, the results from my individual queries show that person/buyer PE110036 has required features that match exactly with property PR110011's property features, I need to somehow write a query that provides this functionality
Any advice very much appreciated!

I'm still struggling with this one, would there be a solution using PL/SQL?
Here are some sample insert statements from the tables involved
INSERT INTO buyer VALUES('PE110002', 300000);
