Need another set of eyes...

i'm trying to build a search string and either my tick/quote marks are messing me up or i'm building the LIKE statement wrong. if a user types 'JOHN' in item :P1_LASTNAME, i'd like for all records with 'JOHN' to be returned (ex. JOHN, JOHNSON, JOHNNY).
Declare
x varchar2(2000);
Begin
x := 'select LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME from EMPLOYEES where 1=1 ';
if :P1_LASTNAME is not null then
x := x || ' AND upper(LASTNAME) like "%" ' || upper(:P1_LASTNAME) || ' "%" ';
end if;
if :P1_FIRSTNAME is not null then
x := x || ' AND upper(FIRSTNAME) like "%" ' || upper(:P1_FIRSTNAME) || ' "%" ';
end if;
x := x || 'order by LASTNAME';
return x;
End;

The code you wrote will concatenate percent signs (%) enclosed in double quotes (") to each side of the search string:
select LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME from EMPLOYEES where 1=1
AND upper(LASTNAME) like "%"JOHN"%"
You want your query to have percent signs on either side of the search string enclosed in single quotes ('):
select LASTNAME, FIRSTNAME from EMPLOYEES where 1=1
AND upper(LASTNAME) like '%JOHN%'
To escape a single quote in PL/SQL use two single quotes ('') as opposed to a double quote ("). They look VERY similar.
if :P1_LASTNAME is not null then
x := x || ' AND upper(LASTNAME) like ''%' || upper(:P1_LASTNAME) || '%'''';
end if;

You have two if statements, and it's far from clear what you mean. Be more explicit, and use code tags:

Opening .txt file - Need another set of eyes

Hi folks - The attached file opens in Notepad and MS Excel as 9999 rows x 3 columns (X,Y,Z values, respectively). I have tried different delimiters using 'Read From Spreadsheet File.vi' to bring in all the data but only successful bringing in the first column of 9999 values. Can someone take a look at this and give me the trickto get it open using LabVIEW? I expect it is something very simple but it is a Monday, isn't it?
Thanks in advance.

I need another pair of eyes.... my loops have got me twisted!

Hey I'm trying to put together a basic tic tac toe game without using any classes. I've written enough code to allow one person to choose a valid position and for next to do so as well. So the game begins and the first player is asked to choose a position on the board,... you select a valid space between 1 and 9, otherwise you have to choose again, after you enter a valid number between 1 and 9 and second bit of code takes the integer value you've entered and converts it into a string for us to compare against the position. Since the 3X3 array is initialized to the numbers 1-9 corresponding with the positions the user selects, if anything other than the number entered appears in the position, the spot has previously been filled and the user is supposed to be prompted to select another position. So... getting back to the problem, after the user selects a bad position the code jumps back up to the top instead of executing the specific error code i tried to have triggered. Along the way you'll notice I've that I've commented out entire blocks of code with some ideas that I've had the have pretty much brought me back to the same place. I feel I've been looking at this thing for too long and i need some fresh perspective. I'm sure I'll be kicking myself when one you nobles points out my flaw.
By the way player 2 code differs from player one so choose a base and let me know which approach works best.
thanks for the consideration

I suggest you try using a debugger to step through the program to see what it is doing.
This will help you understand what you program does.
I also suggest you try formatting your code in a readable manner or using a code formatter to do this for you.

Maintenance Windows - I need another pair of eyes

Hello Everyone,
I am looking for a second pair of eyes to ensure I have this process down 100%. The goal is a scheduled client computer reboot following the May patch install.
Assign a 12 hour maintenance window on my client computer collection.
Enforce a 10 hour reboot cycle (initial notification).
Enforce a non-dismissible notification at the 3 hour mark.
I am running some final tests today. Below is my maintenance window:
This is the reboot behavior I assigned:
My first test this morning resulted in the computer say it was going to reboot in 90 minutes! I double checked the computer only had the single maintenance window applied and the client settings were assigned and set properly. I'm concerned there may be
some hidden maximum value on the restart settings.

Ensure that you don't have any applications/updates that are set to install and reboot outside of maintenance windows.

Need another pair of eyes to help on this form..........

Hello Everyone,
I have a form that needs a little love.....I have it setup to take values from drop downs and match the values from numeric fields with the dropdowns and multiply the information depending on what is selected. The problem I am running into is it isn't always working. If I select one of the first two options in packDes1 then it works exactly like it should though if i select any other monthly option it doesn't multiply correctly.
The form is found at the following URL for Download:
http://www.shingleme.com/NewCostForm_6_15_2010.pdf
Any help is appreciated

Paul,
Thank you again for coming through!!!!!! Once I fixed the typo and put the "if" code block on one line it worked. I have a strange question then though. can you do something like
var j = 'justin';
textfield.rawValue = j.rawValue (Where j is the value justin and justin is the name of a textfield)
The reason I ask is I went and used find/replace for the other rows in the form to separate all of them but wanted to use inplace substitution though wasn't sure how to do it.

Remember that privileges granted through roles don't count in AUTHID DEFINER stored procedures.
Your procedure doesn't specify AUTHID, so it defaults to DEFINER; therefore, the privilges to do anything in the procedure must be granted directly to the procedure owner (or to PUBLIC), and not merely to some role that the procedure owner has.
Maybe a problem with the enclosing quotes, or lack of?I don't think so. If the quotes were wrong, I would expect a compile-time error, not a run-time error. Also, regardless of when you got the error, I would expect the error message for misplaced quotes to be something about syntax, like "keyword not found where expected', rather than something about privileges.
You're already doing the smart thing:
{code}
dbms_output.put_line('Processing '||v_job);
dbms_scheduler.set_attribute_null (v_job, 'START_DATE');
END LOOP;
{code}displaying v_job pefore running it. If you can run that same command in an EXEC command (as the procedure owner), then it's definitely an AUTHID DEFINER problem, and you need the privileges granted directly to you.

Logic is the APPlication (program, app) that you are having the problem with.
Logic Pro can take advantage of other computers on your local (home or work) network to help it do "heavy lifting" data chores by using Bonjour and a feature called Nodes. It seems that Logic is attempting to find and connect to another machine on your network.
Do you have Logic installed on another computer there? That may be the source of the confilict.
You might want to post this question in the Logic Pro Community.
Be sure to indicate the version of Logic Pro that you are using. I'm sure the folks there can help you out.

Is there any database parameters we need to set when using DBMS_PARALLE_EXECUTE?

Hi,
I am using dbms_parallel_execute package to do some process, I call a procedure to do the some tasks and insert data using the chunks by sql. Here is my code, I am calling p_process procedure, I am using 11g 11.2.0.3.0 - 64 bit on windows server.
DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE.CREATE_TASK ('process a');
DBMS_PARALLEL_EXECUTE.CREATE_CHUNKS_BY_SQL (
      task_name => 'process a',
     sql_stmt => 'SELECT startid, endid FROM chng_chunks',
     by_rowid => FALSE);
        dbms_parallel_execute.run_task
        ( task_name      => 'process a',
          sql_stmt       => 'begin P_process( :start_id, :end_id ); end;',
          language_flag => DBMS_SQL.NATIVE,
         parallel_level => 24 );
This code runs very fast on a one database and I can see it uses lots of cpus but it runs very slow on a copy of the same database on another server which has more cpus and memory. I compare v$parameter vlues and those are pretty much identical between databases. I checked the disk spaces and both servers has plenty of free space on disks.
Now my question is, is there any other parameters that we need to set/check when using dbms_parallel_execute package.
Thanks in advance.

I don't get this. Ever. Why developers insist on comparing server1 with server2, simply because their code is running on both.
It is like comparing the athletic ability of two persons, arguing that h/w wise they are the same (i.e. human), and both have green eyes (your same software). And as because these are all the same, both persons should be able to run the 100m in the same time.
Yes, the analogy is silly.. as is the warped concept amongst many developers that server1 and server2 should exhibit the same performance when running the same code.
It. Does. Not. Work. Like. That.
Want to know why server2 is exhibiting the performance it does when running your code?
Do that by ignoring server1 as it is NOT RELEVANT.
Do that by examining the workloads and resource usage of server2, and the run and wait states of your code on server2.

Help needed in setting up Japanese Database

Hi there,
Help needed in setting up Japanese Database.
I created database with UTF8 character set on Sun Solaris O/S.
Oracle version 8.1.7.
I am accessing the DB through SQL*Plus (Windows client).
I downloaded the Japanese font on client side and also set the NLS_LANG environment variable to Japanese_Japan.UTF8. Still, I am not able to view Japanese characters. O/S on client side is Windows 2000 professional (English). Is O/S (client) need to be Japanese O/S? When I try to retrieve sysdate, its displaying in Japanese but not all characters in Japanese. Can anyone help me out how to set up the client and is there any parameters to be setup at server side? I also tried to insert japanese characters into table through client, but it displaying as "?????" characters. Any help in this regard is appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Shankar

lol
your program is working just fine.
do you know what accept does? if not read below.
serversocket.accept() is where java stops and waits for a (client)socket to connect to it.
only after a socket has connected wil the program continue.
try putting the accept() in its own little thread and let it wait there while your program continues in another thread

Have problem setting Email alerts for Calendar events. Warning message says I need to set up a card in Contacts with my email. I do but it doesn't recognize it. How do I indicate the email I want alerts sent to?

The system of setting up email alerts for Calendar events worked fine in Snow Leopard but since I upgraded to Mt. Lion Calendar won't let me set email alerts. When I try, I get an error message saying I need to set up a card in Contacts for my email. I have a card set up in Contacts for both of my email addresses but it doesn't recognize them. Perhaps the name I have on the card doesn't match a name that Calendar is looking for. Calendar doesn't seem to have a way in Preferences or elsewhere to indicate the email I want alerts sent to. Any ideas how I can get this system working again? Thanks for your help.

You might want to consider starting a new discussion. Since this one is marked solved, less people are likely to look at it. You can link to this one.
See if another contact is marked as this is my card.

Need another set of eyes...
