Merging multiple rows into a string without loop

Hi,
Wanted to know if there is a way we can merge the result set for a query(single column) into a string ?
For example, I have the following query which returns multiple rows:
SELECT organization_code
FROM mtl_parameters
WHERE oganization_id IN ( 1,2,3)
Lets say the result set for this is :
A
B
C
I want the data as A,B,C
Basically I will be fetching the organization_ID from a diff sub query. I know I can do it using for loop and keep appending the values.
But wanted to know if there is any easier way of doing it.

Try this
SELECT ''||SUBSTR (SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (organization_code , ','), 2)||'' csv
      FROM (SELECT organization_code
, ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY organization_code
) rn,
                   COUNT (*) OVER () cnt
              FROM mtl_parameters
WHERE oganization_id IN ( 1,2,3)
     WHERE rn = cnt
START WITH rn = 1
CONNECT BY rn = PRIOR rn + 1;

Merge multiple rows into single row (but multiple columns)

How to merge multiple rows into single row (but multiple columns) efficiently.
For example

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:

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}

Oracle query - Merging multiple rows into a single row output

Hi All,
I have to have a multiple row output to be converted into a single row output.My current output looks as follows:
ID YR INC_CODE OFFN SCHOOLNO
8006 2002 00175 SC03 12
8006 2002 00175 DC06 12
8006 2002 00175 DC03 12
8006 2002 00175 DC02 12
ID,INCIDENT CODE,OFFENSE are all Primary keys
So I need the output as follows:(IN ONE ROW)
ID YR INC_CODE OFFN1 OFFN2 OFFN3 OFFN4 SCHOOLNO
8006 2002 00175 SC03 DC06 DC03 DC02 12
Can you help me on this since have been spinning the wheel and this has to be a query since will have couple of tables join to produce a materialized view.
Thanks in advance

Hi Nigel,
Thanks for the reply I tested out the portion having the decode and I get the output as follows:
ID YR INC_CODE OFFN1 OFFN2 OFFN3 OFFN4 OFFN5
8982 2002 2175 DOC01 -----------------------
8982 2002 2175 DOC02-------------------
8982 2002 2175 DOC03------------
8982 2002 2175 DOC06-------
8982 2002 2175 SCV03
There is no value as max for OFFN and each INC_CODE MAY HAVE UP TO A MAX OF 5 OFFN.My query is as follows:
select distinct STU_STUDENT_ID, INC_BEG_SCH_YR,INC_INCIDENT_CODE
, decode(rank() over (partition by INC_CODE order by OFFN),1,OFFN,null) as offn1
, decode(rank() over (partition by INC_CODE order by OFFN),2,OFFN,null) as offn2
, decode(rank() over (partition by INC_CODE order by OFFN),3,OFFN,null) as offn3
, decode(rank() over (partition by INC_CODE order by OFFN),4,OFFN,null) as offn4
, decode(rank() over (partition by INC_CODE order by OFFN),5,OFFN,null) as offn5
from stu_offn where
stu_offn.ID = '8982' and stu_offn.INC_CODE = '2175'
(****Where clause is just given to just check a value)
So as you know I need to just have all the OFFN in a single row ie as follows:
ID YR INC_CODE OFFN1 OFFN2 OFFN3 OFFN4 OFFN5
8982 2002 2175 DOC01 DOC02 DOC03 DOC06 SCV03
Can you just give me a step by step procedure to go through this and the table in this case is just 'STU_OFFN'
Thanks for the earlier reply appreciate it!
****Sending this again to show the exact way the output is coming

Merging Multiple Rows into a single Row

I've read a number of posts with no real good answers or answers that might be good for tables with 3 columns of data. I have a table with 33 columns that will all need to be combined. A little history. Apparently in production the Primary Key Constraint
was dropped which allowed some duplicate data into the table. Now they want me to squish the records together to fix it.
Sorry I couldn't include the screen shot of the data, MSDN says my account isn't verified...
My requirements when I'm putting them together, CERElibilityID is a unique column. This is a sticky problem because in the related tables it is only one of the parent records gets child records related to it.
I just want to keep the one that has the child records in CERPrepActivity table. If there are no child records then the rule will be like all the other records with data.
If a field is null and another record has data we take the record that has data.
If multiple records have data we take the record that has the highest "ModifiedOn" timestamp column value.
I feel like I'm asking a lot, but I'm in a bit of a bind and I've spent the morning Googling and have come up with nothing
Thank you for any help the community can provide and the more specific you can be the better. I'm not a DBA or SQL guru by any stretch so I'm way out of my element.
Thanks

Using the systables, you can get information about your table. I put these together:
SELECT '
LEFT OUTER JOIN #CEREligibility ['+c.name+']
ON s.caseID = ['+c.name+'].caseID
AND s.modifiedOn = ['+c.name+'].modifiedOn
AND ['+c.name+'].['+c.name+'] = (SELECT TOP 1 ['+c.name+'] FROM #CEREligibility WHERE caseID = s.caseID AND ['+c.name+'] IS NOT NULL ORDER BY ModifiedOn)
AND ['+c.name+'].['+c.name+'] IS NOT NULL'
FROM tempdb.sys.objects o
INNER JOIN tempdb.sys.columns c
ON o.object_id = c.object_id
AND o.name LIKE '#CEREligibility%'
SELECT '['+c.name+'].['+c.name+'] AS ['+c.name+'], '
FROM tempdb.sys.objects o
INNER JOIN tempdb.sys.columns c
ON o.object_id = c.object_id
AND o.name LIKE '#CEREligibility%'
On my test system I created your table as a temp table named #CEREligibility.
The first of these two queries generates LEFT OUT JOIN SQL for a self join. Because we're using the columns systable, a LOJ for each column is generated.
The second, produces a select list.
Putting the two together like so, and adding a FROM and GROUP BY gives us:
SELECT
MAX([CEREligibilityId].[CEREligibilityId]) AS [CEREligibilityId], s.[CaseId], MAX([M2Eligibility].[M2Eligibility]) AS [M2Eligibility], MAX([CDREligibility].[CDREligibility]) AS [CDREligibility], MAX([M2Comments].[M2Comments]) AS [M2Comments], MAX([M2CommentsRtf].[M2CommentsRtf]) AS [M2CommentsRtf], MAX([CDRComments].[CDRComments]) AS [CDRComments], MAX([CDRCommentsRtf].[CDRCommentsRtf]) AS [CDRCommentsRtf], MAX([RIAWA].[RIAWA]) AS [RIAWA], MAX([RIAWADate].[RIAWADate]) AS [RIAWADate], MAX([EducationAndTraining].[EducationAndTraining]) AS [EducationAndTraining], MAX([EducationAndTrainingDate].[EducationAndTrainingDate]) AS [EducationAndTrainingDate], MAX([Internship].[Internship]) AS [Internship], MAX([InternshipDate].[InternshipDate]) AS [InternshipDate], MAX([Apprenticeship].[Apprenticeship]) AS [Apprenticeship], MAX([ApprenticeshipDate].[ApprenticeshipDate]) AS [ApprenticeshipDate], MAX([Entrepreneurship].[Entrepreneurship]) AS [Entrepreneurship], MAX([EntrepreneurshipDate].[EntrepreneurshipDate]) AS [EntrepreneurshipDate], MAX([EmploymentPrep].[EmploymentPrep]) AS [EmploymentPrep], MAX([EmploymentPrepDate].[EmploymentPrepDate]) AS [EmploymentPrepDate], MAX([OTPrep].[OTPrep]) AS [OTPrep], MAX([OTPrepDate].[OTPrepDate]) AS [OTPrepDate], MAX([ExitInterview].[ExitInterview]) AS [ExitInterview], MAX([ExitInterviewDate].[ExitInterviewDate]) AS [ExitInterviewDate], MAX([CreatedOn].[CreatedOn]) AS [CreatedOn], MAX([CreatedBy].[CreatedBy]) AS [CreatedBy], MAX([ModifiedOn].[ModifiedOn]) AS [ModifiedOn], MAX([ModifiedBy].[ModifiedBy]) AS [ModifiedBy], MAX([BCPermInEligibility].[BCPermInEligibility]) AS [BCPermInEligibility], MAX([CCPermInEligibility].[CCPermInEligibility]) AS [CCPermInEligibility], MAX([M2EligibilityDate].[M2EligibilityDate]) AS [M2EligibilityDate], MAX([CDREligibilityDate].[CDREligibilityDate]) AS [CDREligibilityDate], MAX([ExitSeparationCode].[ExitSeparationCode]) AS [ExitSeparationCode], MAX([ExitSeparationSubCode].[ExitSeparationSubCode]) AS [ExitSeparationSubCode]

Merge multiple rows of same ID into Single row

Hi All,
I need the requirements of merging multiple rows of same ID as single row.
My Table Data:
ID     Language1 Language2 Language3 Language4
1001 NULL         JAPANESE NULL          NULL
1001 SPANISH   NULL          NULL          NULL

1001 NULL        NULL           RUSSIAN    NULL
Required Output Should be,
ID     Language1 Language2 Language3 Language4
1001 SPANISH    JAPANESE RUSSIAN   ENGLISH
Please help me to achieve this output.
Tried grouping but its not working also producing the same result.
Thanks.
Live freee....Joy forever................ :)

Try the below:
create Table Test_Sample(ID int,Language1 varchar(50), Language2 varchar(50), Language3 varchar(50), Language4 varchar(50))
Insert into Test_SAmple Values(1001,NULL,'JAPANESE', NULL, NULL),
(1001,'SPANISH', NULL, NULL, NULL),
(1001,NULL, NULL, NULL, 'ENGLISH'),
(1001,NULL, NULL, 'RUSSIAN', NULL)
Select ID,MAX(Language1),MAX(Language2),MAX(Language3),MAX(Language4)
From Test_Sample
Group by ID
Drop table Test_Sample

          v_cl_itab(i):= dbms_random.value(1,1000);
          v_cl_vtab (i):=dbms_random.string('a',20);
          v_cl_dtab (i):=to_date(trunc(dbms_random.value(2453737, 2454101)),'j');

Merging 2 rows into 1 row

I have a field:
=Fields!Attachment_Name.Value that returns values on 2 separate rows
Row 1 LTC 34 EARC
Row 2 LTC 34 EARC v04_13
How can I get the 2 rows to merge into 1 row to show "LTC 34 EARC" only
Thank you

How is the value coming in dataset?
Is it a single column values you're showing above as two lines or are they two separate rows? Is the question to merge multiple row data to one inside SSRS?

Text issues merging multiple pdfs into one pdf

Hello, when I merge multiple pdfs into one pdf document my text is missing or garbled. I spent hours yesterday trying to figure this out, from insuring the text was embedded and print setting were correct. Please help!!
Using Adobe Pro 9.0
Thanks,
Faith

Acrobat Pro is the application you use for working with PDFs, making minor edits, combining multiple PDFs into a single file, extracting or replacing pages, doing fancier form work than ID has the ability to produce, and even creating PDF from a number of other file formats. I'm not sure your question about maintaining the quality of your photos is really applicable -- it would depend on how youare getting from the photo to PDF to begin with. The use of Acrobat in and of itself won't be the determiner.
That said, I couldn't live without Acrobat Pro in my workflow. Since you are on CS5.5 you have a couple of options. You could purchase a subscription to Creative Cloud (at a discount for the first year), which would give you access not only to Acrobat, but all of the other programs and tools included in the suite, but you pay a monthly or yearly fee, or you can buy a standalone perpetual license to either Acrobat Pro or Acrobat Standard (I didn't realize Standard was still an option, and you might not need all the features of Pro -- you can compare at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro/buying-guide.html).

How To Concatenate Column Values from Multiple Rows into a Single Column?

How do I create a SQL query that will concatenate column values from multiple rows into a single column?

Starting with Oracle 9i
select last, first, substr(max(sys_connect_by_path(code,',')),2) codes
from
(select last, first, code, row_number() over(partition by last, first order by code) rn
from a)
connect by last = prior last and first = prior first and prior rn = rn -1
start with rn = 1
group by last, first
LAST       FIRST      CODES

Merging multiple rows in to a single row (when rows meet merging criteria)

Hi
I have a scenario to merge multiple rows in to a single rows when the data in those rows fall in merge criteria .Below is how my data is
Now the merging logic for the above rows is , we need to combine multiple rows in to a single row when the data in those rows permits us to do in that way. Simply saying , its like sandwich where we combine multiple things to a single piece.The output for
the above rows should be
Here we combined Row 1 ,2, 3 in to a single row as the data in those rows permits to merge in to single row. But the row 4 cannot be combined to any of those rows because the data in those rows doesn't permits us do a merge ( As the value of the column
JobSource for the row 4 is different from the other rows ) .
My original data has 56 columns , but for readability i kept only 9 columns.
can you please throw some idea on how to achieve this scenario. I know we need to use CTE for achieving this, but i am not able succeed in doing an iteration on multiple rows.
Appreciate your response .

Thanks for your reply .
Rule for merging is simple . First of all there is no unique row identifier for each row , the fact table is not having an identity column in the database . I called row 1 , row 2 etc in my post above only to make better explanation of my scenario.
The rule for merge is below.
1) we can combine only when the data in a column for one row is null & the data in same column for the other row is not null . It should also satisfy the condition where the data in other columns should conflict each other.
2) Data for all columns for the merging rows should not be conflicting (i.e. we should not merge the rows when the data in a column is not equal to the same column in the other row
,considering not null value)
Steps in merging the above source data :
1) Consider the case of row 1 and row 2 in the source, we can combine these rows as the data is satisfying the rule 1 for columns (Jobsource,Flight, Package,Update,Iscancelled
,Result, Severity) and columns (JobID and RuleName ) fall under rule 2. we merge these two rows in to a single row and keep in that in the table.
2) Then the resulting row is again merged with the second row which is present above by applying the rule 1 and rule 2 . Below would be output of merge operation.
Now there would be only two rows in the output . But these rows cannot be merged as the data doesn't satisfy the merge rules 2 . As Jobsource for the row 1 in the above output is "PresubmissionSource" which is not equal
to "PostSubmission" jobSource which is in row 2. So these two rows are left unmerged .So the above two rows would be the output of merge operation on my source data.
This process has to be repeated for all the rows in the table. As of now my table as 92 Million rows with 56 columns which need to be considered for merging rows. I replicated my scenario in 9 columns and 4 rows to understand better.

Inserting Multiple Rows into Database Table using JDBC Adapter - Efficiency

I need to insert multiple rows into a database table using the JDBC adapter (receiver).
I understand the traditional way of repeating the statement multiple times, each having its <access> element. However, I am just wondering whether this might be performance-inefficient, as it might insert records one by one.
Is there a way to ensure that the records are inserted into the table as a block, rather than record-by-record?

Hi Bhavesh/Kanwaljit,
If we have multiple ACCESS tags then what happens is that the connection to the database is made only once. But the data is inserted row by row.
Why i am saying this?
If we add the following in JDBC Adapter..logSQLStatement = true. Then incase of multiple inserts we can see that there are multiple
<i>Insert into tablename(EMP_NAME,EMP_ID) VALUES('J','1000')
Insert into tablename(EMP_NAME,EMP_ID) VALUES('J','2000')</i>
Doesnt this mean that rows are inserted one by one?
Correct me if i am wrong.
This does not mean that the transaction is not guaranted. Either all the rows will be inserted or rolled back.
Regards,
Sumit

__Is there a way to 'merge' multiple curves into a single curve?

__Is there a way to 'merge' multiple curves into a single curve?
By this I mean I have file with 2-12 curve layers - I wanted to 'merge' the curves so that I can end up with a single curve with the attributes of many. Maybe is there a script that would do this?

I don't mean to be critical, but how do you get to a situation where you have 12 successive Curves layers?
The advantage to a Curves layer is that you can adjust and re-adjust it to your heart's content.
If you're habitually adding new Curves layers one over the other, maybe you should re-evaluate your process of working... Perhaps the way you're thinking you should just work at a high bit depth and do repeated Curves operations on the pixels? Or put some time into retraining yourself to not add a new Curves layer but to manipulate the one that's already there. There are some nice new enhancements (e.g., the "finger" subtool that allows you to choose a spot in the image and manipulate that part of the curve).
Again, I'm not trying to criticize you, just looking to see if maybe there's a way to avoid getting to the point where you need to combine Curves in the first place, since there's no direct "Merge Curves" capability, outside of just stamping a set of image and adjustment layers into pixels. For completeness I suppose I should mention how to do that... You can Stamp any combination of visible layers into a single layer of pixels (effectively combining all the Curves layers et. al.) by pressing Control - Shift - Alt - E.

Inserting multiple rows into a table (using sequences)

Hi!
I want to insert multiple rows into a db table, but I don't know how.
I know how to insert 1 row using a sequence:
I put all the fields in the jsp form's page and in the submit page I put something like this:
<jbo:Row id="myRow" datasource="ds" action="Update" rowkeyparam="MyRowKey" >
<jbo:SetAttribute dataitem="*" />
</jbo:Row>
But how can I insert multiple rows like this:
Id          Name
1          ana
2          monteiro
3          maria
Thanks!

You could use SQL*Loader to load the data into a staging table with a varray column, then use a SQL insert statement to distribute it to the destination table, as demonstrated below.
SCOTT@orcl> host type test.dat
1,"1001,2001,3001,4001"
2,"1002,2002,3002,4002"
SCOTT@orcl> host type test.ctl
load data
infile test.dat
into table staging
