Hi,
Whenever you have a question involving an error message, post the complete error message, including line number. Don't you think that might help people solve your problem?
Whneve you have any question, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results you want from that data. (In the case of a DM<L statement, like UPDATE, the INSERT statements show the tables before the change, and the results are the contents of the changed table after it.)
Review the syntax of the UPDATE statement in the SQL Language manual:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28286/statements_10008.htm#sthref9598
MERGE may be more efficient and easier to use than UPDATE.

Insert multiple rows into a same table from a single record

Hi All,
I need to insert multiple rows into a same table from a single record. Here is what I am trying to do and I need your expertise. I am using Oracle 11g
DataFile
1,"1001,2001,3001,4001"
2,"1002,2002,3002,4002"

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"

Multiple Row Update in a Table

Hi,
How do I do a multiple row update in a single table in Oracle? I was thinking of something that is similar to the insert example below:
Insert into SOME_TABLE (COL1, COL2) (select COL1, COL2 from ANOTHER_TABLE);
...wherein I don't have to write multiple lines of update statement.
Thanks.

Hi Mike,
Thanks for replying. I was actually looking for a multiple row update using a single update statement. The only reason I provided an Insert statement example is to show the idea. I did some test and I was able to figure it out. I thought it was something complicated but I just had to retrieve the new values from another table and equate the primary key and foreign keys of the two tables.

How to create multiple rows in a child table from the multi select Lov

Hi
We have Departments and EmployDept and Persons tables and each employee can associate multiple departments and vice versa.While creating a Department page there should be a Multi Select LOV(values from Persons table) with search option for the Persons.From the search panel we can select multiple persons for that department.Suppose we have selected 5 persons and click on submit, then it should create 5 rows in the EmployDept table for 5 persons with that department id.
Any inputs on how to implement this scenario please..

Maybe you can get some ideas from here -

How to update one table from another

I am creating scripts in Oracle 10g. I have a table that has data corruption on three date fields.
I created a table with the following sql of all the affected rows:
CREATE TABLE LSU_INTER_FIX_DATE AS
select request_id,received_date,planned_start_date, actual_start_date
from lsu_inter2_requests_t
where received_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
OR planned_start_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
OR actual_start_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
I then repaired all of the rows with three data fixes
UPDATE LSU_INTER_FIX_DATE
SET received_date = TO_CHAR(received_date,'YY-MON') ||'-'||(TO_CHAR(received_date,'RRRR') + 2000)
where received_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
UPDATE LSU_INTER_FIX_DATE
SET planned_start_date = TO_CHAR(planned_start_date,'YY-MON') ||'-'||(TO_CHAR(planned_start_date,'RRRR') + 2000)
where planned_start_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
UPDATE LSU_INTER_FIX_DATE
SET actual_start_date = TO_CHAR(actual_start_date,'YY-MON') ||'-'||(TO_CHAR(actual_start_date,'RRRR') + 2000)
where actual_start_date < to_date('01-JAN-1900')
I now want to update the original base table with the corrected data so I wrote the following SQL UPDATE command:
UPDATE lsu_inter2_requests_t aaa
SET aaa.received_date = bbb.received_date
FROM LSU_INTER_FIX_DATE bbb WHERE aaa.request_id = bbb.request_id
When I run this sql Oracle returns the error “ORA-00933 SQL command not properly ended.” How do I update multiple rows in one table from another table that share the same primary key?

When you want to produce a DATE datatype when starting with a string,
you must use TO_DATE() on the SET line!
(TO_CHAR(received_date,'RRRR') + 2000)since when do you do add characters (from TO_CHAR) with a constant number (2000)?
You should NEVER EVER rely on implicit datatype conversion

How to update date in a table from another database

Hello,
I am trying to code a way to Update my Testing database from another database. In the coding below the database that has the updated data ends in Restore.
Use ClientDB_MASTER_Restore
Truncate Table ClientDB_MASTER_Testing.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
GO
SELECT * INTO ClientDB_Master_Testing.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
FROM Activity_Tracking_AZ
Go
I know with this Technique the table must be truncated if not deleted first. There is probably a better way to do this which I'm very open to. I'm also looking for coding that will roll back any changes made should an error occur.
As always, any help is greatly appreciated.
David92595

USE ClientDB_MASTER_Testing
go
SET XACT_ABORT ON
BEGIN TRANSACTION
Truncate Table dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
-- SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ ON
INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ (col1, col2, ...)
SELECT col1, col2,
FROM ClientDB_MASTER_Restore.dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ
-- SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Activity_Tracking_AZ OFF
COMMIT TRANSACTION
If you find it boring to type the column lists, just find the table in Object Explorer, and drag the columns node to where you want the column list.
You need the SET IDENTITY_INSERT command if the table has an IDENTITY column.
By wrapping the code in a transaction, you are not left with an empty table if the INSERT fails. The command SET XACT_ABORT ON makes sure that the batch is aborted and rolled back in case of an error.

Multiple Rows Update / Refresh Toplink Query when database trigger involved

Hi everybody!
I have two easy troubles for you; the platform is the same as the SRDemo Toplink version.
1. Multiple Rows Update: I want to update with mergeEntity method, multiple rows for an isolated table; that method receives a parameter that I try to bind with the iterator "dataProvider" but it only merges the first row, not all, any other combination returns an error.
What I want to do is to have a form (like tabular forms in Apex) that lets me update multiple rows in a single page. ¿May anyone tell me how to do it?
2. Refresh Toplink Named Query: I have a list on a page with two columns. From another page, a button does an action that fires a database trigger that updates one of the columns on the list´s page. When I go back to the list, it is not updated; however, the CacheResults´s property is set to false on the iterator.
Thanks in advance,
Alejandro T

I didn't use it (yet), but - you might take a look. You'll find a [url http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/apex/application-express/apex-plug-ins-182042.html]Timer plug-in on this page. It is a dynamic action which allows you to periodically fire other dynamic actions in the browser. For example use the timer to refresh a region every five minutes. You can perform any dynamic action you want using this infrastructure.So I was thinking: you might use it to run a dynamic action which would check whether something changed in that table (I suppose you'll know the way) (for example, a database trigger might set a flag in some table, timestamp or similar), and - if you find that something really changed - refresh the page.
As I said, I never used it so that's pure theory. Someone else might know better, though.

Multiple row update; CEV business rule parameters are not refreshed

During a multiple row update, a business rule is fired for each row.
This change event business rule must update the value of another column in the same table (and same row).
Unfortunately, the parameters of the BR are keeping the values of the first row that has been checked. Since my parameter p_id always keeps the same value, I always update the same row.
Does somebody have a hint on how to solve this problem ?
I'm using Headstart R6i and Forms6i with Oracle9i DB.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Denis.

I think that's how it works. I tried that with a variable where type is Members.
It is not showing me a prompt when i select multiple rows. However works only for first row. (even if the menu is initiated from second row).
Multiple rows selected, variable type is members. works only for first row in selection. (in 11.1.2.2) You can try log an SR and see what Oracle has to say.

Multiple Rows Update

Hi,
I am creating a form which will display the multiple rows from the table. Is there any way to make multiple rows update at the same time.
If it is report generated by the query, can we do multiple rows update.
Regards,
Munish

Munish,
Sounds like what youâre looking for is a tabular form. Click on create page, then choose form, then tabular form and follow the steps of the wizard. This will create a tabular form for you that lets you update multiple rows, add new rows and delete multiple rows.
Regards,
Marc

ADF JSF - Multiple Rows Update

Does anybody if there is a new component in ADF JSF that allows update of multiple rows? Se example...
ID     | Name | Number
1     | textbox | textbox
2     | textbox | textbox
3     | textbox | textbox
|Create- button| | Save - button|

Sure, the ADF Faces <af:table> supports updating multiple rows: just put an <af:inputText> inside one of the columns.

Hide multiple rows in a dynamic table based on the row value.

Hi,
I need to hide multiple rows in a dynamic table based on the specific value of that row.
I cant find the right expression to do that.
please help

Go to the Row Properties, and in the Visibility tab, you have "Show or hide based on an expression". You can use this to write an expression that resolves to true if the row should be hidden, false otherwise.
Additionally, in the Matrix properties you should take a look at the filters section, perhaps you can achieve what you wish to achieve through there by removing the unnecessary rows instead of just hiding them.
It's only so much I can help you with the limited information. If you require further help, please provide us with more information such as what data are you displaying, what's the criteria to hiding rows, etc...

I'm using Oracle version 8i and I want to create a table from another table, such as:

But there is only a table that I can't created like that, such as:

When I run over command, SQL Plus is not responding... and clients are can't access to DB or Executing forever
This is the first time I met this problem.
Can Anyone help me to resolved it?

Update the z table from the header text of VF01 on save

Hi All,
I have a Z table 'ZEXIM_LICDETAILS'. Whenever a billing doc. of type 'ZEXP' is created with tcode VF01, the Z table fields should also be updated. I have learned that we cannot include tabs in Billing Doc, so the licence number is put in the header text of the VF01.
Is there any way that I can update my Z table from header text, when we save the VF01.
Waiting for your repy in anticipation.
Thanks a lot in advance,
