Nested Tables on two rows

I have created a nested table in the Context section of my report, which has a control level. When I drag-n-drop the table onto the form, it is just one large row. If I try to break the columns into multiple rows, the table no longer functions properly.
How can I make a nested table into more than one row and it still work?

Hi,
What I could understand from your query is.
You have a context of table type and is nested, may be the number of columns are more enough that it doesnot fit in one row of the form, so you wanted to publish a single instance/record data in 2 different rows is it so ..?
well if so, if I were you instead of using table I will use subform with flowed westerntext layout by which all the (say 10 )colums will display in 2 rows with 5 columns each.
Then I would do data bb inding individually.
This was adviced by Otto and works perfectly, I am using this approach in several forms.
Let me know if my understanding was wrong or if you find any issues implementing this approach.
Cheers,
Sai

Nested Tables Repeat Header Row RTF Output Not Working v5.6.2(PDF does)

All,
Has anyone used nested tables in heading rows where they are set to repeat nested table header row across page breaks for RTF output ? This seems to work for PDF generation (line breaking enforcement doesn't) but I don't even get RTF Header ROWS indicated in my RTF output document. I have enabled them in my RTF template for the outer table row plus the inner nested table. Is this possible for RTF output or have I not indicated something in my RTF template or grouping clause ??
Thanks,
Tom

Add new row in table between two rows - OATableBean

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to add a new row between two rows. Lets say I have a table with 5 rows. I am envisioning having an icon (table switcher) on the row #1, which when clicked will insert/create a new row between rows #1 and #2 like #1.5, something that can be achieved in core forms. In core forms, when we click the add button, it immediately creates a new row before the current row ( and pushes other rows down). Is that possible with OATableBean. Please let me know if you have any ideas.
Thanks,
Ravi.

Hi,
I used following code to insert the row in the end
public void createNewRow()
XXEGASRLinesVOImpl vo =getXXEGASRLinesVO1();
Row row1 ;
int i;
Row row[] = vo.getAllRowsInRange();
row1 = vo.createRow(); //vo.createRowSet("10");
vo.insertRowAtRangeIndex(row.length,row1);//.insertRow();
row1.setNewRowState(Row.STATUS_INITIALIZED);
Check if it works for you, you have to modify it to meet your requirement.

Split row in two rows (Table with too many columns)

Hello,
I have a small problem. I have a table with several columns. As all the columns do not fit with the correct width, the format is very ugly. Since leaving all data in a row is very small, I like to cut a line into two, namely:
- For example if I have a table with 10 columns, I would leave in the first row 7 columns (for that look good data) and the next row only the remaining 3 columns. Thus each row of the original table, occupy two rows on the form.
Thank you very much beforehand

hello
thanks for the reply, will be very helpful.
Regarding links to examples, I do not relate to this problem, these are not correct, you must have confused the link.
thanks!

Union all-distinct and remove duplicates from nested table?

Hi all,
I need a select that will bulk collect some data in my nested table.
I have two tables from which I need to select all the accounts only once.(remove duplicates).
Tried to search on the forum...but no luck.
I have a table with one column:
create table a1(account_no number);
and a second table with 3 columns.
create table a2 (account_no number, name number, desc varchar2 (100));
I have a nested table like:
table of a2%rowtype;
Can I select from this two table in one select and put in my nested table just one row per account?
if a I have in a 2a row like :
1 'test' 'test2'
2 aaaa aa
and in a1 a row like:
1
I want to put in my nested table just (1, null,null and 2,aaaa, aa)) or (1,test,test2 and 2,aaaa, aa). it does no matter what row from those two I insert.
Second question:
If I use:
BANNER
Oracle9i Release 9.2.0.5.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 9.2.0.5.0 - Production
CORE     9.2.0.6.0     Production
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 9.2.0.5.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 9.2.0.5.0 - Production
SQL>
what is the best solution to remove duplicates from a neste table like mine?
I thought that I can build another nested table and loop in my first nt and for each row I check in there was the same account in previous lines.
it will be like:
for i in 1....nt_first.count loop
for j in 1..i loop
    --check if my line was in previous lines. if it was...do not move it in my second collection
end loop;it is this best option in oracle 9i?

I have a table with one column:
create table a1(account_no number);
and a second table with 3 columns.
create table a2 (account_no number, name number, desc varchar2 (100));
all I need are the accounts. the rest ar extra data
that I can ignore in this step. But if it is
available, it is ok to use it.
using one select in this case is is much better that
trying to remove duplicates parsing some nested table
with FOR many times?
Thankshi,
try to use union. Union automatically removes duplicates between two or more tables.
with t1 AS
       (select '3300000' account_no FROM DUAL UNION
        select '6500000' account_no FROM DUAL union
        select '6500000' account_no FROM DUAL union
        select '6500000' account_no FROM DUAL union
        select '6500000' account_no FROM DUAL
       select * from t1ACCOUNT_NO
3300000

Fill datagridview with Nested Table Object Type ???

Hello everybody, please you help me resolve my problem?
I follow this example: *(A Sample Application using Object-Relational features)* http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/appdev.101/b10799/adobjxmp.htm
And this tutorial: *(Using Oracle User-Defined Types with .NET and Visual Studio)* http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm
Now I have 3 Object Table: Stock, Customer and Purchase Order. With the tutorial it's OK to show the data of Stock and Customer Table [there is no nested table in], but I can't do this with table Purchase Order, the tutorial don't show how to work with Nested Table type [Missing or something ?]
When I try to display the data of table Purchase Order, I get the error:
typeName='LINEITEMLIST_NTABTYP'' is not specified or is invalid*
Follow the tutorial, I generate custom class for this UDT and get another error:
this.STOCK_REF = ((object)(Oracle.DataAccess.Types.OracleUdt.GetValue(con, pUdt, "STOCK_REF")));*
Argument Exception Unhandle: Object attribute is not mapped to a custom type member.*
Can You show me how to do this ? Show the data of the Nested Table in Visual Studio, do I have something wrong ??? Thanks and Best Regards.

I think you need to go through the tutorial more carefully. I think you are missing steps.
You are using a REF. Are you creating an object table for the objects to be stored in? Are you dereferencing the REF? This is covered by the Oracle by Example tutorial.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/dotnet/udt/udt_otn.htm#t11
When you receive the nested table, it will be inside a .NET class. You can create this class by using the Create Custom Class menu item on the nested table type in server explorer.
This class will contain a ToString method and a ToXML method.
The question is, where are you attempting to display the data from this nested table? In a grid?
Does it make sense to display a nested table inside one cell of a grid? No. You would need to construct a special UI that will show the
nested table. Maybe the user clicks on the cell on the grid, which opens a new grid that displays the data. Or maybe there is a second grid on the form that always shows the nested table for the row that the first grid currently has selected.
I realize I am not providing you the code... but it sounds like you need to design a more sohisticated UI than what the tutorial is using -- one that can handle displaying one additional table per row.

InsertXML nested table

5.Run rows := DBMS_XMLSave.insertXML(insCtx,xmlDoc); with the generated xml.
6.The table testtable will have 2 rows with the same 1 row collection xlist !!!
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE Test_Type
AS OBJECT (
x number
create or replace type Test_List_Type as table of Test_Type
create table TestTable (

insert into
testtable
(xx,xlist)
values
(1,Test_List_Type (test_type(10)))
insert into

Datatable with two rows per record

Hi,
I have a table I need to render in a jsf datatable.
The problem each record has two rows, just like this:
<tr class="resultsrow1">
<td rowspan="2"><strong>Life & Pensions Administrator</strong></td>
<td>Insurance</td>
<td>Contract</td>
<td>Cork</td>
<td>LPA/2910</td>
</tr>
<tr class="resultsrow1">
<td colspan="4"><u>Job Description:</u> Minimum 3 - 4 years experience required and progression towards qualification beneficial. Dublin 2, 4 and South Co. Dublin. Salary € depends on experience.</td>
</tr>
How can I render this with a JSF datatable, or can I at all. I can't see a way anywhere and I can't seem to set the colspan anywhere?
Thanks in advance,
Keith

Yeah. Sadly, colspan and rowspan are missing from dataTable. Maybe the implications were just too hairy.
I see two possible solutions:
(1) outer, inner tables. Outer table contains your section name ("something something Administrator"?) in lefthand column, inner table in righthand column. Inner table contains two rows: firstHalfOfData, secondHalfOfData. Used fixed widths in CSS styles to make your columns line up across instances of the inner table.
(2) one table, rows composed of alternating firstHalf, secondHalf beans. Leftmost column of firstHalf row contains section name. Leftmost column of secondHalf row is blank.
I'll be interested to know how that turns out. :)

Nested Tables & Repeating Sub-group Row

I'm using BIP re-grouping in conjunction with nested tables to avoid repeating some rows within my 'master' table.
However, I'd like to repeat this sub-group row when the particular detail associated with that group spans multiple pages.
Any advice on how I might accomplish this?
Thanks,
Chris

Controlling the row of top level table to repeat in all pages, if the second table extends to next page,
i dont think , there is a link between the two tables,
you cannot identify on which page the row of the table exists, first or next.
keeping this in mind, controlling the row of the parent table :)... looks difficult.
But I see your point and requirement, but, i guess, the one which i sent earlier is a certainly a workaround.
Looking for best soln, will let you know if i get +Ve ;)

How to use nested tables with the inner table in a separate row

Hi,
I am having a problem when changing our existing Adobe printform delivery note so that serial numbers are written for each item line.
I've searched the forum and found many posts relating to nested tables, but none that had exactly my situation.
Currently I print item lines like this (this uses the complete width of the form):
Pos....Quantity...Material..........Description..................................................Date
99.........99.........ABCDEFGH....alksdalksjdlkasjdlsajdlkjasldjaslkdjakslj........9999.99.99
.................................................fskdjflsdfljsdflkjsdlkfjsdlkjfdfsf
.................................................asdkadsfdkfhsdkfhskjdfhks
but I want to add serial numbers after that for each item like this:
Pos....Quantity...Material..........Description...................................................Date
99.........99.........ABCDEFGH....alksdalksjdlkasjdlsajdlkjasldjaslkdjakslj.........9999.99.99
.................................................fskdjflsdfljsdflkjsdlkfjsdlkjfdfsf
.................................................asdkadsfdkfhsdkfhskjdfhks
.................................................Serial numbers:
.................................................9999999999..9999999999..9999999999
.................................................9999999999..9999999999..9999999999
I have added serial numbers to my the current table in the interface/context/data view so it look like this:
TTYP - ITEM_FIELDS
...DATA structure
......POSNR
......QTY
......MATNR
......TTYP - ITEM_TEXTS
.........DATA structure
............DESCRIPTION
......DATE
......TTYP - SERIAL_NOS
.........DATA structure
............SERIAL_COL1
............SERIAL_COL2
............SERIAL_COL3
In my Hierarchy I currently have this hierarchy and binding:
Table - ITEM_FIELDS
...Body Row - DATA
......Cell - POSNR
......Cell - QTY
......Cell - MATNR
......Subform - ItemTexts
.........Table - ITEM_TEXTS
............Body Row - DATA
...............Cell - DESCRIPTION
......Cell - DATE
Now I am trying to add the SERIAL_NOS table into the ITEM_FIELDS/DATA body row right after the DATE cell - but I am not allowed to drag anything into the table structure.
Does anybody have an ida how I can achieve this, please?
Kind regards,
Claus Christensen

HI,
Set the body page as flowed and set the tables also flowed.
go to bodypage>object->subform-->select flowed option.
I thihnk this will work..if u are getting all the records properly into the tables 1 and 2.

Error while mapping two times nested table

Hi,
I have a Product table which has nested ProductSubcategory in it.
ProductSubcategory nested table also has nested table ProductCategory inside it.
So there is a nested table inside nested table.
I designed a dimension on warehoue builder and while mapping, i got "ORA-22913: must specify table name for nested table column or attribute" error.
I mapped nested tables before with using varray iterator and expand object, but they were nested once. Is there any solution for mapping two or more time nested tables?
Now i exracted tables and i continuou working but, i wondered is there any way.
Creation codes are below. Thanx :)
CREATE TABLE PRODUCT

     ProductSubcategory ProductSubcategory,

BharathHi,
I understand your opinion. But I am not sure that the user have enough experience to choose the best option by his one. And about the redundant data: because of this I wrote that he should truncate the tables after the last mapping which loads all data into the real target table.

Grouping of two rows of internal table

Hi all,
I am having a requirement in which I want to group two rows of an internal table and assign a pointer to the two rows.
This pointer variable will then be passed to ALV.
Help reqd.

Hi Gaurav,
Hope the below code helps:
TYPES :BEGIN OF TY_ITAB2,
DATA(400),
END OF TY_ITAB2.
DATA: ITAB3 TYPE TY_ITAB2 OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE
Loop at itab1.
ITAB3-DATA = ITAB1-LABEL.
APPEND ITAB3.
ITAB3-DATA = ITAB1-MATNR.
APPEND ITAB3.
endloop.
or
You can create a deep internal table. You can declare one Column as an internal table and store the NOTES in that Internal table for each row.

When selecting a row from a view with a nested table I want just ONE entry returned

Does a nested table in a view "EXPLODE" all values ALWAYS no matter the where clause for the nested table?
I want to select ONE row from a view that has columns defined as TYPE which are PL/SQL TABLES OF other tables.
when I specify a WHERE clause for my query it gives me the column "EXPLODED" with the values that mathc my WHERE clause at the end of the select.
I dont want the "EXPLODED" nested table to show just the entry that matches my WHERE clause. Here is some more info:

Can you explain what do you mean by the following?
"PL/SQL tables (a.k.a. Index-by tables) cannot be used as the basis for columns and/or attributes"There are three kinds of collections:
(NTB) Nested Tables
(VAR) Varrying Arrays
(IBT) Index-by Tables (the collection formerly known as "PL/SQL tables")
NTB (and VAR) can be defined as persistent user defined data types, and can be used in table DDL (columns) and other user defined type specifications (attributes).
SQL> CREATE TYPE my_ntb AS TABLE OF INTEGER;
SQL> CREATE TABLE my_table ( id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, ints my_ntb );
SQL> CREATE TYPE my_object AS OBJECT ( id INTEGER, ints my_ntb );
/IBT are declared inside stored procedures only and have slightly different syntax from NTB. Only variables in stored procedures can be based on IBT declarations.
CREATE PROCEDURE my_proc IS
   TYPE my_ibt IS TABLE OF INTEGER INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER; -- now you see why they are called Index-by Tables
   my_ibt_var my_ibt;
BEGIN
   NULL;
END;That sums up the significant differences as it relates to how they are declared and where they can be referenced.
How are they the same?
NTB and VAR can also be (non-persistently) declared in stored procedures like IBTs.
Why would you then ever use IBTs?
IBTs are significantly easier to work with, since you don't have to instantiate or extend them as you do with NTB and VAR, or
Many other highly valuable PL/SQL programs make use of them, so you have to keep your code integrated/consistent.
There's a lot more to be said, but I think this answers the question posed by Sri.
