OCA certification (Senior, expert pls help!!)

Hi all, i am currently a java programmer and is keen to get OCA certify.
May i know what is the difference between 10g n 11g?
Also, y do i need to take 2 exams for 11g but onli 1 exam for 10g???
Lastly, is it possible to SELF STUDY for OCA as i do not have any oracle experience. Only have MS sql experience.
Thank You

hi thanks for your valued info.
But why is there only 1 exam needed for 10g and 2 for 11g?Oracle removed the 'SQL for beginners' exam for the 10g series. That [to me at least] proved to be a mistake as too many people were attempting to get certified without even beginner knowledge of the very language that runs the Oracle database platform. They restored that exam. Now there is verification that the OCA candidate at least can spell SQL, SELECT, UPDATE and so on, and might even be able to use the tools provided.
>
Based on your view, do u think i should start all
over from 9i then slowly upgrade or, take 11g directly?
Pls advise:)I think you should think about your future. Make a decision for yourself based on that. Does you future include Oracle9i DB? Is it important for you to verify that you understand Oracle9i DB?
Many people mistakenly think the purpose of the exam is to get a certificate. I disagree ... I think the purpose of certification is to verify - to yourself and to others - that you are aware of, and potentially understand, the material. (If you use brain dumps, or gunners, or other ways of cheating, you are not verifying that awareness or understanding and will eventually be caught - by your colleagues, your boss, or perhaps by yourself when you look at your reflection in the morning mirror.)
If you do not want to verify your knowledge about 9i, don't bother.

Gurus and experts pls help me to solve this problem. Dont give any suggestion like
SELECT vip_mot_ind,vip_ind
FROM veh_main V,
veh_axis vaxis,
veh_axis_ind vaind
WHERE v.vip_mot_ind= vaxis.axis_mot_ind
and   v.vip_ind= vaind.eng_ind
and   vaind.eng_axis= vaxis.eng_axis
and   vaxis.eng_axis='ENGAXIS002'
union
SELECT vip_mot_ind,vip_ind
FROM veh_main V,
veh_eng_sub vsub,
veh_eng_ind vind
WHERE (v.vip_mot_ind= vsub.eng_mot_ind
and   v.vip_ind=vind.eng_ind
and    vsub.eng_subclass= vind.eng_subclass
AND vsub.eng_subclass='ENGSUB001' )
}this will give correct result...
MOT01     1
MOT01     2
MOT02     5
MOT02     6
but the problem is we cannot implement this in query. because query get framed at runtime there will be so many implement has to be done. other than UNION pls give me more suggesion
waiting..

create a view v1 with all the joins
select * from v1 where eng_subclass='ENGSUB001'
union
select * from v1 where eng_axis='ENGAXIS002'
If you really do not like the direct access with union, try this
select * from v1
where vsub_PK in (select vsub_PK from v1 where eng_subclass='ENGSUB001' )
OR vsub_PK in (select vsub_PK from v1 where eng_axis='ENGAXIS002')
--vsub_PK is the primary key of table vsub

Any java experts pls help me in converting attribute to XML formats

Pls help me oh my god i am a newbie here and i am given this project.
I had just written a XML doc. which looks like this
<ConsumerTransfer>
<TransactionId>
123:123
</TransactionId>
<Billingoption>
cash
</Billingoption>
</ConsumerTransfer>
I need to make this to attributes like
private String TransactionId()
private String BillingOption()
and so on.....
I need to convert this attributes to XML format
can any show me an example or the source codes for this
Really, I appreciate it.

For such node level operations I think that DOM would be a good idea. So here you go. Look for some nice tutorial for DOM and you got it.

Hi experts pls help me with this materialized view refresh time!!!

Hi Expeerts ,
Please clarify my doubt about this materialized view code
[\n]
CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW SCHEMANAME.products_mv
REFRESH WITH ROWID
AS SELECT * from VIEW_TABLE@DATAOPPB;
[n]
Here i am creating a materialized view named products_mv of the view_table present in the remote server.Can anyone tell me when will my table product_mv will get refreshed if i follow this code.As what i read from the books is that the refresh period is implicit and is carried out by the database implicitly.so can u tell me suppose i insert 2 new records into my view_table when will this record get updated into my product_mv table.
I cant use primary key approach so this is the approach i am following .Kindly help me in understanding when will refresh of records occur in the materialized view product_mv...Pls help
regards
debashis

Hi Justin ,
Yes, my database can reasonably schedule other jobs too .Its not an issue.
Actually what i meant "fine in all aspects" is that will the matrerialized view will get refreshed w.r.t the documetum_v table present in my remote server.This is all i need to refresh my materialized view .
I queries the DBA_JOBS table .I could see the following result i have pasted below:-
[\n]
NLS_ENV
MISC_ENV INSTANCE
dbms_refresh.refresh('"WORKFLOW"."PRODUCTS_MV2"');
JOB LOG_USER PRIV_USER
SCHEMA_USER LAST_DATE LAST_SEC THIS_DATE THIS_SEC NEXT_DATE
NEXT_SEC TOTAL_TIME B
INTERVAL
FAILURES
WHAT
[n]
here WORKFLOW"."PRODUCTS_MV2 is the materialized view i have created.So can u tell me that whether we can predict our refresh part is functioning fine from this data.If so how?
Actually i am asking u in details as i dont have much exposure to materialized view .I am using it for the very first time.

URGENT, EXPERTS PLS HELP!!

I would like to know answer to following question:
"Is java.lang.Object" overused??? Pls reply immediately coz I doing my final year project at ivy league university and I need to hand in my assignment in next 2 hours!

"Is java.lang.Object" overused??? Pls reply
immediately coz I doing my final year project at ivy
league university and I need to hand in my assignment
in next 2 hours!I love the story this implies. This issue is critical to a final year project? A final year project? Due in September?
How could it be relevant? I mean, if the final year project is an argument about the overuse of a particular idiom, then presumably the project is in the OP's area of expertise. So why is he asking about it here, now?
And if it's not his area of expertise... then he'd be expected to do some research, such as interviews. He'd be expected to do some research somewhat earlier than two hours before the project is due.
And of course the coup de grace, informing us that it's in an ivy league school. Those of us who weren't so fortunate to attend one, are of course obligated to help out those who do.
He must go to Yale.
Otherwise...a marvelous troll, sir!

Tree creation algorithm needed. Experts pls help

hi,
I'm writing a program that read data from database to create a Tree.
The database table:
DATA          PREDATA          POSTDATA
1 4 5
2 6 7
3 1 2
4 8 9
If the DATA has a PREDATA, it will be inserted into the left node otherwise null and POSTDATA will be inserted into right node. For example if I pass in 3 the Tree should look like the following:
3
1 2
4 5 6 7
8 9 null null null
Thanks

This is a fairly straighforward problem but I see two possible problems.
1) There could be more than one root. Any row with identifier that is never used as pre or post is a root.
2) If a row identifier is used more than once as pre or post then one no longer has a simple binary tree.
Dealing with 1) is easy - just have a set of roots. Dealing with 2) is not so easy.
My solution follows. It deals with 1 but not 2.

Ordering according comparing - SQL Experts pls help

Hi All,
I want to measure the nearest points according to percentage between these points and order it.
by another way, i want to show the relation between points according to percentage value.
drop table temp_value;
create table temp_value(id number(10),location varchar2(20), percentage number(9));
insert into temp_value values (1,'LOC 1,2',30);
insert into temp_value values (2,'LOC 1,3',0);
insert into temp_value values (3,'LOC 1,4',0);
insert into temp_value values (4,'LOC 1,5',0);
insert into temp_value values (5,'LOC 1,6',50);
insert into temp_value values (6,'LOC 2,3',0);

insert into temp_value values (13,'LOC 4,5',0);
insert into temp_value values (14,'LOC 4,6',0);
insert into temp_value values (15,'LOC 5,6',0); i want the output like this, the ordering of the point like this
4
3
5
6
1
2 or like this
6
1
2
4
3
5 if you ask me why this ordering i will say that
4    [90 percent between point 3,4 that mean can be 3,4 or 4,3]
3
5    [80 percent between 3,5 that mean can be 5 after 3,4]
6    [50 percent between 1,6 that mean can be 1,6 or 6,1 ]
1
2    [ 30 percent between 1,2 that mean can be 1,2 or 2,1] regards

I have passed sql expert Exam in oracle 10g this week,now i want to go for OCA. should i take 1z0-042 exam? or i have one more query in my mind that i have qualified sql expert in oracle 10g ..can i switch over to oracle 11g and clear the paper at the same level required in OCA certification path in oracle 10g as sql expert exam code 1z0-047 is same in both 10g and 11g.please tell me the best book and material
ThanksIn terms of certification pre-reqs for DBA and PL/SQL OCA's you have an 1z0-147 which is one of the certification exams that satisfy that requirement.
Afer passing 1z0-047 you need to consider whether you should take a developer track or DBA track
From your posts you seem to consider 10g DBA OCA .... 11g DBA OCA would be better but if going down the DBA route your eventual goal should be DBA OCP ..... and that requires mandatory training and your may need to factor that in ... sometimes people may find workforce 10g DBA training is the more accessable to themselves.
As for the books, both the Sybex and Oracle Press exam focused books have their advantages and disadvantages and faults. Oracle Documentation remains the authorative source.

User exit theory and practical knowledge (Pls help experts)

Hi Experts,
Kindly help me to know about user exit.
Thanks in advance
Will reward points.

Hi,
User exits (Function module exits) are exits developed by SAP. The exit is implementerd as a call to a functionmodule. The code for the function module is writeen by the developer. You are not writing the code directly in the function module, but in the include that is implemented in the function module.
The naming standard of function modules for functionmodule exits is:
EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>
The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as:
CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION <3 digit suffix>
Example:
The program for transaction VA01 Create salesorder is SAPMV45A
If you search for CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION i program
SAPMV45A you will find ( Among other user exits):
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '003'
exporting
    xvbak   = vbak
    xvbuk   = vbuk
    xkomk   = tkomk
importing
    lvf_subrc = lvf_subrc
tables
    xvbfa = xvbfa
    xvbap = xvbap
    xvbup = xvbup.
The exit calls function module EXIT_SAPMV45A_003
2. How to find user exits?
Display the program where you are searching for and exit and search for CALL CUSTOMER-EXIT
If you know the Exit name, go to transaction CMOD.
Choose menu Utillities->SAP Enhancements. Enter the exit name and press enter.
You will now come to a screen that shows the function module exits for the exit.
3. Using Project management of SAP Enhancements, we want to create a project to enahance trasnaction VA01 .
- Go to transaction CMOD
- Create a project called ZVA01
- Choose the Enhancement assign radio button and press the Change button
In the first column enter V45A0002 Predefine sold-to party in sales document.
Note that an enhancement can only be used in 1 project. If the enhancement is already in use, and error message will be displayed
Press Save
Press Components. You can now see that enhancement uses user exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002. Double click on the exit.
Now the function module is displayed. Double click on include ZXVVAU04 in the function module
Insert the following code into the include: E_KUNNR = '2155'.
Activate the include program. Go back to CMOD and activate the project.
Goto transaction VA01 and craete a salesorder.
Note that Sold-to-party now automatically is "2155"

Help me out to resolve a conditional problem----pls help

Hi Experts ,
I have the requirement in which if the apinumber is greater than or equal to 10 then only the rows should get inserted into the well_header_table from products_mv table.I need to use only merge concept and nothing else.
I am making use of the merge concept here .I am checking for the 10 digit condition during the updation part but same will be inserted into the well header table.This shouldnt happen .Can any one suggest me how can i filter out the insertion part so that it only inserts the rows which has api_number greater than 10 digits.I have marked my 10 digit condition that checks for the update part in bold form.
Pls help me out in resolving this issue .

Try those selects below and look at your on condition
select substr('123456789',1,10) from dual
select 123456789 from dual where 123456789 > 999999999
-- perhaps
on (nag.products_mv.API_NUM = NAG.Well_Header_Table.API_NUMBER and nag.products_mv.API_NUM > 999999999)Regards

Thanks in advance.- I assume you mean the 10g DBA OCA. You eed one of he SQL exams and 1z0-042 for this.
- Read forum annoucement posts and FAQs
- Visit [http://www.oracle.com/education/certification]
- Visit [http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=151] and drill down from there.
---- The exam course page also gives recomended oracle training.
---- See [http://blogs.oracle.com/certification/2009/05/the_route_you_choose.html]
- [http://www.pearsonvue.com/Oracle/locate/]
You should also evaluate why you are chooses 10g DBA OCA rather than 11g DBA OCA. There can be good reasons for this.
Please note that if you continue with the next DBA certiifcation on that route (10g DBA OCP ) you will need to have an approved attended a hands on course (for that certification) from an approved institution (Oracle University is the safest bet).

Oracle 11g OCA certification

I am newbie .I would like to know a good book for Oracle 11g OCA certification ,1Z0-051 and 1Z0-052(with lesser number of mistakes).Appreciate a response.

I can tell you from personal experience that it is extraordinarily difficult to write a technical book with zero defects. Spell-checkers and grammar checkers produce huge numbers of false positives when looking for standard (i.e. non technical) errors. Technical errors are easy to introduce -- forget to add a 'Not' in a sentence, or something similar -- and hard to detect afterward. When I read through my study guides looking for errors, I tend to see what I meant to write.
That said, such defects are normally a tiny fraction of the information contained within certification manuals. A couple of reviews on the Oracle Press 1Z0-052 book written by John Watson mention a couple of errors and then imply the book is filled with more. I've read the book and it is very informative. It contains hundreds of pieces of information and contains about ten errors -- all mentioned in the errata on the McGraw Hill site. The books is good preparation for the text and for learning the basics of being an Oracle DBA.
As Aman indicated, using more than one source is a good way to help to detect inaccuracies. I believe in always using multiple sources and the documentation is generally a good option for that.
