Make this query more elegant?

can anybody tell me how to make this subquery more elegant?
select 1 lfdidx from dual union
select 2 lfdidx from dual union
select 49 lfdidx from dual union
select 50 lfdidx from dual
Thanks in advance

Sergey, thanks, that's what I hoped for.
http://www.sqlsnippets.com/en/topic-11821.html has some additional info concerning this.

How to make this query more efficient

Hi, i have query to find out the count of records based on certain conditions like below.
SELECT count(*)
FROM new_orders WHERE card_number IS NOT NULL
AND exp_date IS NOT NULL
AND card_id in ( select card_id from old_orders );
There are millions of records in both the tables. , so it is taking long time to run. Is there any solution to optimize this query.....thanks for help. Bcj

you might want to give this a try.
SELECT count(*)
FROM new_orders no
WHERE no.card_number IS NOT NULL
   AND no.exp_date IS NOT NULL
   AND exists (select 'x'
                 from old_orders oo
                where oo.card_id = no.card_id);it would also help if you can post the information needed as suggested by rob.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum! You'll find that there are many qualified people (such as Tubby) willing to help you. Will you do what you can to help them? In order to simplify the query you posted,someone will first have to understand what it does, what the tables that it uses are like, and what tools you have to work with (that is, what version of Oracle, and any other software you are using). To actually test their ideas, people will need versions of your tables.
Many people, if they spent enough time, might be able to figure out roughly what you are doing, make some tables themselves and test a solution. You can help with all of that. I assume you already know what the appliction is, and what this particular query is supposed to do: you don't have to figure out any of that, you just have to say it. You know what all your tables are, what the datatypes of all the columns are, and what kinds of data are in the tables: you don't have to guess at any of that.
Describe what you're doing. Think about it: how do we know that
SELECT NULL
FROM dual;doesn't do what you want?
Post CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements for a little sample data.
Post the results that this query is supposed to produce from those results. (Is it producing the right output now? Then it should be easy to post the correct results.)
Describe, as well as you can, how the present query is doing it.
Format your existing code, so it's easy to see what the different branches of the UNION are, and what the main clauses are in each one.
When posting formatted text (code or results) type these 6 characters
\(all small letters, inside curly brackets) before and after each formatted section, to keep this site from compressing the spaces.
Say what versions of Oracle (e.g. 10.2.0.3.0) and any other relevant software you are using.
I know it's a lot of work, but it really helps. You can do it as well (probably better) than anyone else, and if you're unwilling to do it, why should anyone else be willing?

How to make this query

hi,
i have 2 tables emp1 & emp2

i want to make a query on emp1 table where i want to show amt according to month ,if data is not available in emp1 table then only then it should take data from emp2 table ,if emp2 has that month data o/w 0.
my output should be like this

Can we make this query shorter....?

hi there
Can any body help me in reducing the number of lines in this query ! I am using union to concat 3 queries. Select fields in every query are same and in where condition also most of the joins are same in every query. but in where clause only two conditions are different. Can we make this 3 queries into one becoze entire select statement fields are same and most of the where conditions are same !
Below is the query:

Hi,
it is difficult to change this query without the possibility to test it in a worksheet. But try the following query.
I think it should be the same result as your 3 queries.

How to make this query go faster

Hi ,
I have the following query :
select a.* from
tbl1 a , tbl2 b
where a.id = b.id
substr(b.id , 3, 2) <> 'XX'
and b.date1 is not null
and b.date1 >= sysdate - 90 ;
tbl1 - 21 million rows
tbl2 - 2 millions
i specify this hints /*+ INDEX(idxa_1 , idxa_2) INDEX(ixdb_1)
where idxa_1 --> b.lotid
idxa_2 --> b.date1
idxb_1 --> a.lotid
IF i DO NOT include b.date1 is not null and b.date1 >= sysdate - 90 ,
from explain plan i could see it using a FAST FULL SCAN which really returns very fast
HOWEVER if i include b.date1 is not null and b.date1 >= sysdate - 90
, from explain plain it uses row index and then there's a range scan and its slow
how can i improve the performance of this query ?
pls advise
tks & rdgs

Don't create the temporary table.
Create a function based index on table two
substr(id , 3, 2)Make sure you have gathered statistics on the tables.
Remove the hint.
select a.* from
tbl1 a , tbl2 b
where a.id = b.id
and substr(b.id , 3, 2) <> 'XX'
and b.date1 >= sysdate - 90;If you still have performance problems, post the formatted explain plan from sqlplus.
Read the Performance Tuning Guide.
Unfortunately this is not urs advice.

To make the query more efficient (create table wiht select command)

Hi,
I have written this query to create another table, but it takes approx two hours while both tables are indexed with 891353, 769023, i have used the following query.
create table source1 as select a.idx, a.source from tt a where a.idx not in (select b.idx from ttt b)
thanks

Try this one if you're on oracle 8i or older
create table source1 as
select a.idx, a.source
from tt a
where not exists (select null from ttt b where a.idx = b.idx)

Make this query into for all entries

Hello Experts,
please change this query into for all entries to increase performance
loop at itab1.
    SELECT single b~vtext INTO itab2
     FROM vbkd AS a
        INNER JOIN tvkggt AS b
        ON akdkg1 = bkdkgr
     WHERE a~vbeln EQ itab1-vbeln_vauf
     AND a~posnr EQ itab1-posnr_vauf.
endloop.
Thank you so much for all the replies.

as I write again and again, then performance is mainly increased but correct index usage
SELECT single b~vtext
INTO itab2
FROM vbkd AS a
INNER JOIN tvkggt AS b
ON   ..... spras ???
       bkdkgr = akdkg1
WHERE a~vbeln EQ itab1-vbeln_vauf
AND      a~posnr EQ itab1-posnr_vauf.
You access vbkd with the primary key vbeln and posnr
and then you switch to tvkggt where you need spras and kdgr for the primary key
With spras you statement is incorrect you get one text it is unclear in which language,
it might be that there is onyl one, but still you *** it to the statement to use the index.
spras = sy-langu might be o.k.
I.e.
IF NOT ( itab1 is initial ).
   SELECT single b~vtext
       INTO itab2
       FROM vbkd AS a
       INNER JOIN tvkggt AS b
       ON   b~spras = sy_langu
              b~kdkgr = a~kdkg1
       FOR ALL ENTRIES in itab1
       WHERE a~vbeln EQ itab1-vbeln_vauf
       AND      a~posnr EQ itab1-posnr_vauf.
ENDIF.

How can i make this query run for a form

This query works fine for a sql report
SELECT *
FROM STUDENTS
WHERE given_name||' '||family_name = :P101_USERNAME
AND password = :P101_PASSWORD;
But i want it to do the same thing for a form but i dont have the option like i do for the report where i can just apply the condition to the process.
Anyone any ideas how i could do this so that when i go to the form this information is already there based on the username and password from the previous page?

Assuming that page 101 is your login form, just lookup the primary key of the student based on the values presented in the login page fields, then set and pass this value to the form page.
So you would create a process that runs near the very end of the the login processes on page 101, something like this:
declare
l_student_id students.student_id%TYPE;
begin
select student_id into l_student_id from students where given_name||' '||family_name = :P101_USERNAME and password = :P101_PASSWORD;
-- then set the value of your form page primary key field
:P1_STUDENT_ID := l_student_id;
end;I've done something similar and it works fine for me, although I haven't looked at it recently.

How do you return all the clients of a salesman ? same that SALESMAN.ALL = 1 OR SALESMAN.ALL = 0.
the salesman.all is 1 then he access all clients no need insert in CLIENTSALESMAN. If SALESMAN.ALL = 0 he
access clientsalesman.
Does somebody some suggestion how i make this ?

Would Anyone Mind Giving A Few Tips To Make This Script More Robust?

Hello. I haven't done any scripting before but I've written this script to run as a post-recording process in Audio Hijack Pro:
on process(theArgs)
-- This part of the script will disable any timers that are set to repeat exactly 7 days (±1 minute) after the recording started
-- Dates have the format "Monday 1 January 2007 12:00:00"
tell application "Audio Hijack Pro"
set allSessions to every session
repeat with eachSession in allSessions
set allTimers to every timer in eachSession
repeat with eachTimer in allTimers
try -- The try protects against empty values of "next run date"
set nextDate to word 1 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextDay to word 2 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextMonth to word 3 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextYear to word 4 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextHour to word 5 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextMin to word 6 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string) as number
set weekOn to ((current date) + (60 * 60 * 24 * 7) - (duration of eachTimer)) -- This calculates the date in 7 days, less the duration of the timer
set weekOnDate to word 1 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnDay to word 2 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnMonth to word 3 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnYear to word 4 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnHour to word 5 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnMin to word 6 of (weekOn as string) as number
if nextDate is equal to weekOnDate and nextDay is equal to weekOnDay and nextMonth is equal to weekOnMonth and nextYear is equal to weekOnYear and nextHour is equal to weekOnHour and nextMin is greater than (weekOnMin - 60) and nextMin is less than (weekOnMin + 60) then
set enabled of eachTimer to false
end if
end try
end repeat
end repeat
end tell
-- The script then goes on to import the recordings into iTunes (as wavs), set tags and copy the wavs up to the server
if class of theArgs is not list then -- This is a standard Audio Hijack Pro routine
set theArgs to {theArgs}
end if
set recordedFiles to {} -- This will protect against theArgs being changed by Audio Hijack Pro whilst this script is still running
set recordedFiles to theArgs
set convertedFileList to {} -- This will keep track of the paths to the imported files
tell application "iTunes"
set current encoder to encoder "WAV Encoder"
copy (convert recordedFiles) to trackList -- Do the conversion
if class of trackList is not list then
set trackList to {trackList}
end if
repeat with eachTrack in trackList -- Set the tags
set artist of eachTrack to "Theatre Archive"
set album of eachTrack to word 1 of ((name of eachTrack) as string)
set convertedFileList to convertedFileList & (location of eachTrack as alias)
end repeat
end tell
tell application "Finder"
repeat with eachFile in convertedFileList
-- This section (down to HERE) is a subroutine to delay the file copy until iTunes has finished creating the files
set currentSize to size of (info for eachFile)
delay 1
set latestSize to size of (info for eachFile)
repeat until currentSize is equal to latestSize -- Keep checking the size every second to see if it's stopped changing
set currentSize to size of (info for eachFile)
delay 1
set latestSize to size of (info for eachFile)
end repeat
-- ...HERE
duplicate eachFile to "Server HD:" as alias -- Copy the files up to the server
end repeat
end tell
end process
The idea is that it disables the repeating timer that created the recording (as I don't necessarily want it to repeat every week), converts the recording to wav in iTunes and then copies the wav up to our server. If I run it too many times in quick succession some files don't get converted, and then some wavs don't get copied to the server. I'd like to know a way of getting it to tell me why not!
Thanks for any advice you can give.
Rich

Since you specifically ask if people can make it 'more robust', it would help if you indicated which areas, if any, were of particular concern.
For example, does the script frequently fail in one particular area?
That would help narrow it down significantly. There's little point in people deeply analyzing code that works just fine.
If, on the other hand, you're looking for optimizations, there are several that come to mind.
Firstly, you're making repeated coercions of a date to a string in order to compare them. String comparisons for dates are inherently dangerous for many reasons.
For one, different users might have different settings for their date format.
Both "Monday May 28th 2007 1:02:03am" and "28th May 2007 1:02:03am" are valid coercions of a date to a string, depending on the user's preferences.
You might expect the former format whereas the current system settings use the latter so now 'word 1" returns "28th" rather than "Monday" as you expect.
The problem is exascerbated by the fact that since you're coercing to strings you're now using alphabetical sorting, not numeric sorting. This is critical because in an alpha sort "3rd" comes AFTER "20th" because the character '3' comes after the character '2'. However I'm guessing you'd want events on the 3rd of the month to be sorted before events on the 20th.
So the solution here is to throw away the entire block of code that does the date-to-string coercions. If my reading of the code and the expected values is correct it can all be reduced from:
<pre class=command>set nextDate to word 1 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextDay to word 2 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextMonth to word 3 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextYear to word 4 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextHour to word 5 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string)
set nextMin to word 6 of ((next run date of eachTimer) as string) as number
set weekOn to ((current date) + (60 * 60 * 24 * 7) - (duration of eachTimer)) -- This calculates the date in 7 days, less the duration of the timer
set weekOnDate to word 1 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnDay to word 2 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnMonth to word 3 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnYear to word 4 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnHour to word 5 of (weekOn as string)
set weekOnMin to word 6 of (weekOn as string) as number
if nextDate is equal to weekOnDate and nextDay is equal to weekOnDay and nextMonth is equal to weekOnMonth and nextYear is equal to weekOnYear and nextHour is equal to weekOnHour and nextMin is greater than (weekOnMin - 60) and nextMin is less than (weekOnMin + 60) then
set enabled of eachTimer to false
end if</pre>
to:
<pre class=command>set nextDate next run date of eachTimer
set weekOn to ((current date) + (60 * 60 * 24 * 7) - (duration of eachTimer)) -- This calculates the date in 7 days, less the duration of the timer
if nextDate is greater than (weekOn - 60) and nextDate is less than (weekOn + 60) then
set enabled of eachTimer to false
end if</pre>
The next area of concern is your copying of the files to the server. I don't understand why you have all the delays and file size comparisons.
Given a list of aliases convertedFileList, you can simply:
<pre class=command>tell application "Finder"
duplicate convertedFileList to "Server HD" as alias
end tell</pre>
The Finder will copy all the files in one go and you don't need the repeat loop or the delays.

Plz help to make this query......very urgent

second one is item_mst containing following fields 
 

item_code description leadtim kanbandate 
11001318 aaaaaaaaaaa 15 22/04/2004

11001325 aaaaaaaaaaa 15 07/08/2004 
 
From the above two tables I want the combine SQL query which will display item_code its description ,kanbandate from item_mst table and will also display the minimum ent_dt of each corresponding item_code alongwith the qty and doc_no.the item_code should not be repeated . 
I want to run the query from sql query analyzer 
the result should be like this 
item_code desc ent_dt qty doc_no
 
11001318 aaaaaaaaaaa 09/09/2003 5 56300501 
11001319 aaaaaaaaaaa 22/06/2004 0 56300504

can you try this,
SELECT DISTINCT im.item_code,
im.descR,
gd.ent_dt,
gd.qty,
gd.doc_no
FROM item_mst im,
grn_dtl gd
WHERE im.item_code = gd.item_code (+)
AND NOT EXISTS (
SELECT 'later detail'
FROM grn_dtl gd2
WHERE gd2.item_code = gd.item_code
AND gd2.ent_dt > gd.ent_dt)
ITEM_CODE DESCR ENT_DT QTY DOC_NO
11001318 aaaaaaaaaaa 2/12/2005 6 563005
11001319 aaaaaaaaaaa 6/22/2004 0 563005
11001320 aaaaaaaaaaa 6/9/2005 0 563005
11001321 aaaaaaaaaaa 12/5/2005 5 563005
11001322 aaaaaaaaaaa 6/22/2004 2 563005

How do I make this query?

I'm working with a table that has over 400,000 records. The columns are as follows:
Species_Code, Breed_Code, Premium_Coverage, Age.
Species_code is either a,c,r,or f. There are associated breed codes for each specie code.
The Premium_coverage is based on species_code and breed_code no matter what the age is. The problem is that for all ages, you have the same premium which makes the table longer than it should be. Which query can I write to have one base_premium for all species_code and breed_code?

Use an aggregate function like MIN, MAX, or AVG and GROUP BY:
SELECT species_code, breed_code, MIN (premium_coverage)
FROM your_table
GROUP BY species_code, breed_code

How to make this query executable in SSRS: The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis.

Hi Ramparasad,
In your query, you add a measures and dimension on Row axis which is not supported in query designer in SSRS. Please use the query below.
