Seems the below (as demonstrated already) should work within Oracle.
The only problem seems to be how to make Java submit the query in the proper format.
I'm not a Java man but anyway, try to use some kind of concatenation to include double quotes as it's clear using quotes within quotes doesn't work

  • Null Column Names....

    Hi all, I have many tables with lots of columns in each one of them. Now I want to check if data is populated in each one of the columns. Is it possible to get all the column names in which there is no data at all.((which are null)(all empty), so that i could find those and re-populate the data in them.
    Thanks in advance.

    Views do not store data themselves. They are just a 'window' to the data stored in base-tables. There is no need to find columns with all-null values in views. If you find all such columns in tables and populate them with data, that should take care of views as well.

  • Crystal Report - NULL values mapped to Column names in reports

    Hai,
    I am using rows of data retrived from the SQL Server 2005 Express and sometimes the column names are NULL , I want to set a default value to this NULL value and set it as Data axes label / Group axes values, can some one please help me with this issue.
    Thank you in advance.
    Vijay

    I resolved this issue myself, this can be set as other Data Labels, Group Label or Series Riser's properties too, left-click twice until the blank item is selected and then right click and select "Edit Axis Label" item and here it can edited with the new value(text).

  • Return the column names for which the row values are not null.

    Hi i m a new guy to db admin, and i need a sql script which should return column names of the particular table. and the returned column should have value (fyi - if the column has null value column name should not come in the sql o/p).
    Exmple:
    table name - A
    s.no name mark status fee
    1 aa 45 p null
    2 bb 30 null paid
    3 cc 35 p paid
    fyi -1) if i give the table name(A) and s.no (2) the o/p should be -- name,mark.
    2) if i give the tablename(A) and s.no (1) the o/p should be --- name,mark,status.
    Thanks

    BTW,
    The previous solution is for all values of the column, if you want a specific row, you can add it in where clause.
    I mean in your example, it you look like:
    SET serveroutput on;
    DECLARE
       l_cnt          NUMBER;
       l_str          VARCHAR2 (255) := '';
       l_table_name   VARCHAR2 (255) := 'YOUR_TABLE_NAME';
       l_col_cond     VARCHAR2 (255) := 'S_NO';
       l_val          NUMBER         := 1;
       CURSOR c_col
       IS
          SELECT column_name
            FROM user_tab_columns
           WHERE table_name = l_table_name;
    BEGIN
       FOR i IN c_col
       LOOP
          EXECUTE IMMEDIATE    'SELECT COUNT ('
                            || i.column_name
                            || ') FROM '
                            || l_table_name
                            || ' WHERE '
                            || l_col_cond
                            || ' = '
                            || l_val
                       INTO l_cnt;
          l_str := l_str || CASE
                      WHEN l_cnt = 0
                         THEN ''
                      ELSE i.column_name
                   END || ',';
       END LOOP;
       l_str := SUBSTR (l_str, 1, LENGTH (l_str) - 1);
       DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (l_str);

  • Query to return column name of first NULL column?

    I have a table with 40 columns but only the first n have non-null values. Is there a way to pull the name of the first non-null column? I have tried using CASE but I run into nesting too deeply problems (apparently you can only nest to 10 levels).
    Thank you.

    Or, you could try something like this:
    -- This is just for testing
    DROP TABLE #test
    CREATE TABLE #Test
    (ID INTEGER
    ,n1 INTEGER
    ,n2 INTEGER
    ,n3 INTEGER
    ,n4 INTEGER
    ,n5 INTEGER
    ,n6 INTEGER
    ,n7 INTEGER
    ,n8 INTEGER
    ,n9 INTEGER
    INSERT INTO #Test
    VALUES (1,256,365,4000,0,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL)
    SELECT *
    FROM #Test
    -- THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PIECE
    SELECT  ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n1,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n2,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n3,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n4,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n5,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n6,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n7,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n8,1)),0)
    + ISNULL(LEN(LEFT(n9,1)),0)
    FROM #Test
    The LEFT(x,1) will always either give you a LEN of 1, or a NULL. Add 'em up. Try it.
    Then use the Ordinal_Position from the Information Schema to get the name of the column (if that is what you need)

  • Need help on getting the column names of Tabletype

    I have a table Mapping with the following values: This Mapping table contains the table names (in Tabname) and the column names(colname) of various tables and values(ValuesTobeFilled) for the columns.
    I have to insert into the tables present in the Tabname field with the values present in the ValuesTobeFilled in the columns present in the Colname field.
    Note: The Mapping table need not contain all the columns of the base table. The columns that are not present can be filled with null. And this mapping table is not fixed i.e. rows can be inserted/deleted frequently.
    Sample values in mapping table:
    Tabname                        Colname        ValuesTobeFilled
    sample_items     Eno     Corresponding Expression to get the values from XML input
    sample_items     Ename     Corresponding Expression to get the values from XML input
    XXX     YYY     Corresponding Expression to get the values from XML input
    Before filling in the actual tables, I have to store the entire data temporarily and I have used a tabletype declared as follows:
    TYPE T_sample_items IS TABLE OF sample_items%ROWTYPE INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
    l_sample_items T_sample_items;
    Where the table sample_items have the following columns:
    •     Eno
    •     Ename
    •     Eaddress
    •     Eemail
    So, the tabletype should be filled as:
    Eno     Ename     Eaddress     EEmail
    1     XXX     -     -
    I have declared a cursor to select the values from mapping table and I need to fill in the ValuesTobeFilled values to the corresponding table.
    CURSOR c_xpath (c_tname mapping.TABNAME%type)
    IS
    select * from mapping where tabname = c_tname;
    CURSOR c_tables
    IS
    SELECT DISTINCT TABNAME FROM mapping;
    FOR crsr IN c_tables
    LOOP
    p_tname := CRSR.TABNAME;
    FOR csr IN c_xpath(p_tname)
    LOOP
    IF l_xml_doc.EXISTSNODE(CSR.XPATH_EXP) = 1
    THEN
    l_node_value := l_xml_doc.extract(CSR.XPATH_EXP).getStringVal(); -- This is the value to be stored in the corresponding column
    ELSE
         l_node_value := NULL;
    END IF;
    IF CSR.COLUMN_NAME = ‘eno’
    THEN
         l_sample_items(1).eno := l_node_value;
    ELSIF CSR.COLUMN_NAME = ‘ename’
    THEN
         l_sample_items(1).name := l_node_value;
    END IF;
    END LOOP;
    END LOOP;      
    And I need to eliminate hard coding while comparing the column names (in the following piece of code) as the Mapping table values are subject to insertion/deletion:
    IF CSR.COLUMN_NAME = ‘eno’
    THEN
         l_sample_items(1).eno := l_node_value;
    ELSIF CSR.COLUMN_NAME = ‘ename’
    THEN
         l_sample_items(1).ename := l_node_value;
    END IF;
    I need to insert the values directly into the tabletype without this hardcoding. Please suggest me ways to compare the mapping table values with the field (column) names of the tabletype. If it is not possible using tabletype, please suggest any other ways of fixing the problem.
    Many thanks,
    Gopi

    I take it this isn't going to be a serious production system at the end of the day?
    Storing metadata in tables for extraction and insertion of data is just wrong in so many ways. It smells heavily of Entity Attribute Value modelling, which is the most wrong way to use a relational database and is known to have major performance implications and be liable to bugs and issues. The idea that EAV modelling allows for 'generic' databases where new data items can be added flexibly later on without having to change code is usually justified with an excuse of "it means we don't have to update all our tables when we want a new column" which is easily countered with "if you're adding a single column a good relational design wouldn't require you to add it to more than one table anyway in most cases".
    Just what exactly are you trying to do and why? There has to be a better way.

  • Searching for missing column names in a single database.

    I have a database with about 100 tables, database gets generated using entity framework. The application has been enhanced  so users deployed with older version of the application need to upgrade to newer version. The database generated is both versions

    Now, the older version is missing some tables and column names that are in new database.
    Is there a script that can search for missing fields in a single database as described in this situation?
    Below is my script. Basically, nameofdatabase would the database generated and that already existing. If you install the application and database already exits no new database will be created.

  • How to use the column names generated from Dynamic SQL

    Hi,
    I have a problem with Dynamic SQL.
    I have written an SQL which will dynamically generate the Select statement with from and where clause in it.
    But that select statement when executed will get me hundreds of rows and i want to insert each row separately into one more table.
    For that i have used a ref cursor to open and insert the table.
    In the select list the column names will also be as follows: COLUMN1, COLUMN2, COLUMN3,....COLUMNn
    Please find below the sample code:
    TYPE ref_csr IS REF CURSOR;
    insert_csr ref_csr;
    v_select VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_table VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;

    v_ins_tab VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_insert VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    v_ins_query VARCHAR2 (4000) := NULL;
    OPEN insert_csr FOR CASE

    You must to use the htp package. Example:
    <ORACLE>
    begin
    htp.tableopen('1','CENTER',null,null,'BORDER="1"');
    htp.tableheader('NParte','CENTER');
    htp.tableheader('Descripcisn','CENTER');
    htp.tableheader('Precio/Unit','CENTER');
    htp.tableheader('Servicio','CENTER');
    htp.tableheader('IVA','CENTER');
    htp.tableheader('Total','CENTER');
    for cursor_cotiza in (select
    r.Nparte as Nparte, r.Descripcion as Descripcion,
    r.preciounit as preciounit,
    NVL(f.servicio,0) as servicio,
    round((0.145)*r.preciounit,3) as IVA,
    round((0.145)*r.preciounit,3) + r.preciounit +
    NVL(f.servicio,0) as PrecioTotal
    from
    carryin.repuestos r,
    carryin.casos c, carryin.facturacion f
    where r.NCaso =:NCaso
    and r.Ncaso=c.NCaso
    and c.Ncaso=f.Ncaso(+)
    and f.servicio(+)<>0
    union
    select
    r.Nparte as Nparte, r.Descripcion as Descripcion,
    r.preciounit as preciounit,
    NVL(f.servicio,0) as servicio,
    round((0.145)*r.preciounit,3) as IVA,
    round((0.145)*r.preciounit,3) + r.preciounit +
    NVL(f.servicio,0) as PrecioTotal
    from
    carryin.casosneq r,
    carryin.facturacion f
    where r.NCaso =:NCaso
    and r.Ncaso=f.Ncaso(+)
    and f.servicio(+)<>0
    ) loop
    htp.tableRowOpen('CENTER','CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.Nparte,'CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.Descripcion,'CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.preciounit,'CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.servicio,'CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.IVA,'CENTER');
    htp.tableData(cursor_cotiza.PrecioTotal,'CENTER');
    htp.tableRowClose;
    end loop;
    htp.tableclose;
    end;
    </ORACLE>
    This example show a table with header and borders. You must to see this package for more information.

  • Can I create a view based on two tables that have the same column name?

    I have two tables A and B. Each table has 50+ columns.
    I want to create a view that includes all the columns in A and all the columns in B. I created a view with a select statement that says
    Select A.*, B.*
    From A, B
    where A.id = B.id
    It returns an error because in each table I have a column that keeps track if a record has been changed called Modified_By. That's where it chokes up on I figure. I would like to write the view without explicitly writing each column name from A and B as part of the select statement. The actual select statement works fine and only bombs when trying to turn the select statement into a view.

    You will have to type the full column list at least once. You can save a few keystrokes (i.e. alias. on every column) by providing the column names to the CREATE part instead of in the SELECT part. Something like:
    SQL> desc t
    Name                                      Null?    Type
    ID                                                 NUMBER
    NAME                                               VARCHAR2(10)
    SQL> desc t1
    Name                                      Null?    Type
    T_ID                                               NUMBER
    LOC_ID                                             NUMBER
    NAME                                               VARCHAR2(15)
    SQL> CREATE VIEW t_v (id, t_name, t_id, loc_id, t1_name) AS
      2  SELECT t.*, t1.*
      3  FROM t, t1
      4  WHERE t.id = t1.t_id;
    View created.HTH

  • Pass column-name as a parameter to reports

    Hello,
    the code below calls a report. But now I want to sort the rows in the report. For example I have a text-item in my form-modul. If I type a column-name and press the button then the rows should be sorted in the report. Is it possible tp pass column-names as parameter to reports?
    DECLARE
    repid REPORT_OBJECT;
    v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
    rep_status VARCHAR2(20);
    BEGIN
    repid := find_report_object('STATIONSTOPOLOGIE');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE,RUNTIME);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_COMM_MODE,SYNCHRONOUS);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESTYPE,CACHE);
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'html');
    SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'rep_oracle-dev');
    -- SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER,'paramform=no pdeptno='||:dept.deptno);
    v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
    rep_status := REPORT_OBJECT_STATUS(v_rep);
    WHILE rep_status in ('RUNNING','OPENING_REPORT','ENQUEUED')
    LOOP
    rep_status := report_object_status(v_rep);
    END LOOP;
    IF rep_status = 'FINISHED' THEN
    WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('http://oracle-dev:8888/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||
    substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)||'?'||'server=rep_oracle-dev','_blank');
    ELSE
    message('Error when running report');
    END IF;
    END;

    Hi,
    the work has been done in reports. You can use a lexical parameter in reports to add a condition for sorting to the query like:
    select .. from .. where ... &p_order.
    Then add another parameter to the report (for example p_param). Fill p_param via your interface in forms (SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_OTHER, ....) with the column name. Then build a report trigger like:
    if :p_param is null
    then
    :p_order:= null;
    else
    :p_order:= 'order by '||:p_param;
    end if;
    But have a look, that p_param can only get correct values.
