Option to insert into all rows

How would I create an option that gives the user a choice of inserting a value into all rows or just a specific row in a table?

Doris,
I'm assuming you mean "update" rather than "insert", since "inserting a value into all rows" doesn't really make sense to me.
Anyway, there's lots of ways you can present this to the users, but at the backend it will come down to your use of a where clause, e.g.
"update employees set salary = 20000"
will update all rows and set the salary column to 20000, whereas -
"update employees set salary = 20000 where emp_id = 37"
will only update the row for the employee with emp_id = 37.
Hope this helps.

How to use INSERT INTO ALL statement in jdbc prepared statement with beans

Kindly give me some example that how we can use "INSERT INTO ALL STATEMENT" in jdbc prepared statement inside a jsf bean?
Actually i want to take employee id's of present employees using single jsf page and using one textbox for each employee id.
How can i use INSERT INTO ALL statement to achieve this?
Following is my code snippet.
AttendanceBean.java:
public class AttendanceBean {

Data Load Wizard not Inserting/Updating all rows

Hello,
I am able to run through the whole Data Load Wizard without any problems. It reports that it successfully inserted/updated all the rows, but when I look in the table, I find a few rows that were not updated correctly. Of the entries I've identified that don't get inserted/updated properly, I've noticed they are the same rows that I was having issues with earlier. The issue was a number format error, which I solved by providing an explicit number format.
Is it possible that the false inserts/updates might still be tied to the number format, or are there other reasons why the data load is failing on only some rows.
Thanks,
Brian
Edited by: 881159 on Mar 14, 2012 5:05 PM

Hi Brian,
I am not aware of the situation where you get false results. However, there were some issues with number/date formats that sometime were not properly parsed, and this has been fixed in 4.1.1 patch. would your case be different from the one described in bug 13656397, I will be happy to get more details so that I can take a look at what is going on.

INSERT INTO EMP

Hi all,
Whats the best way for insert multivalues
INSERT INTO EMP(ENAME) values (htmldb_aplication.g_f32(i)); where EMPNO populated from trigger
and (htmldb_aplication.g_f34(i)), (htmldb_aplication.g_f36(i)),(htmldb_aplication.g_f38(i)) ....
regards,
Gordan

uou have a form with 8 columns on it, correct?
-thats like row with 20 fields (Formular A8) but every field need insert into ONE row from emp table into EMPNO column-thats form
So you need to allow the user ti insert a number of rows of emp type data, correct?
-user fill 20 fields from user friendly UI and when finish click CREATE a and all 20 fields (:P1_CODE1....:P1_CODE20) need insert into EMP(ENAME) and all type are VARCHAR2(255) inserting 20 x.
SO you COULD have a multiple row update (MRU) form with you table design built by apex, correct... No - just INSERT
Will the user be entering all the columns of data? or only some and some are blank? Yes, Could be some blank
thenks for link I will trying to solve with collection

"Failed to validate all rows" when inserting in master detail scenario

Hi,
I have problem writing data in a master detail scenario..
i use the following bean method to write data.
Data is inserted in the master table successfully but when i try to commit in the details table i get the error "Failed to validate all rows in a transaction."
public void save(ActionEvent actionEvent)
//writing into master table
DCBindingContainer bindings =
(DCBindingContainer)BindingContext.getCurrent().getCurrentBindingsEntry();
DCIteratorBinding iterBind =
(DCIteratorBinding)bindings.get("Master1Iterator");
MasterVOImpl vo_pr = (MasterVOImpl ) iterBind.getViewObject();
Row r=vo_pr.createRow();
r.setAttribute("Name", name);
Number num =(new oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl("new_seq",vo_pr.getDBTransaction())).getSequenceNumber();
r.setAttribute("Id",num);
vo_pr.insertRow(r);
vo_pr.getDBTransaction().commit();
//writing into details table
DCIteratorBinding scopeiterBind =
(DCIteratorBinding)bindings.get("Detail2Iterator");
DetailVOImpl vo_sc = (DetailVOImpl) scopeiterBind.getViewObject();
Row rs=vo_sc.createRow();
rs.setAttribute("iddetail",iddetail);
rs.setAttribute("Name", Name);
rs.setAttribute("id",num);
vo_sc.insertRow(rs);
vo_sc.getDBTransaction().commit();
Note: the Detail iterator used here is the one under the master in the AM

In case your model defined a view link from master to detail should try to get the detail iterator from the master and use this to create the new row.
Row r=vo_pr.createRow();
r.setAttribute("Name", name);
Number num =(new oracle.jbo.server.SequenceImpl("new_seq",vo_pr.getDBTransaction())).getSequenceNumber();
r.setAttribute("Id",num);
vo_pr.insertRow(r);
// this method gets the detail iterator for the master row you just created.
// The name of the method depends on the view link in your model you expose to the master view
Row rs=vo_pr.getDetail().createRow();
rs.setAttribute("iddetail",iddetail);
rs.setAttribute("Name", Name);
// this value should be added by the framework
//rs.setAttribute("id",num);
vo_sc.insertRow(rs);
vo_pr.getDBTransaction().commit();Timo

No rows inserted into cube REL_EXPENSE

Dear all,
This week I've spent some hours walking through the online training for Oracle Warehouse Builder 10g on Oracle Technet which can be found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/admin/owb10gr2_gs.htm
Everything went fine until I had to load data into cube REL_EXPENSE. Somehow the mapping that I created (REL_EXPENSE_MAP) does not insert any rows into table REL_EXPENSE.
The lesson I'm referring to which builds the mapping for the cube is:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/10gr2_owb/owb10gr2_gs/owb/lesson4/etl-mappings.htm
Additional information:
-- The target table (REL_EXPENSE) that is needed for loading the data is created successfully.
-- The external table which i created during an earlier lesson was created without any problems. If I SELECT the table (EXPENSE_DATE) I see the records from the CSV file in the table.
-- I've tried to debug the mapping and I could see the rows go through the External Table Operator and through the Expression operator (which converts dates to numbers). The records won't get inserted into the target table by the Cube Operator though.
Since I'm new to OWB I am not able to solve this problem on my own, so I hope you guys can give me a hint where to look so I can solve the problem.
Thanks in advance!
Kind regards,
Theo

Need help in SQL Query: Update a row in a table & insert the same row into another table

I want to update a row in a table say Table A and the updated row should be inserted into another table say Table B. I need to do it in a single SQL query and i don't want to do it in PL/SQL with triggers. And i tried with MERGE statement but its working with this scenario. (Note: I'm using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0).
Thanks in Advance.

Using Sven's code as an example, you could save the updated row in a sql plus variable. (also untested):
SQL> var v_id number
update tableA
set colB='ABC'
where colC='XYZ'
returning id into :v_id;
insert into table A_History (ID, colA, colB, ColC)
select id, ColA, ColB, ColC
from tableA
where id = :v_id;

I am using Photoshop Elements 11. Do all .jpg formatted file have to be retangular in shape? I want to create an oval .jpg picture to insert into a book. Haven't been able to do so. It would work if I could make the area outside the oval completely transparent. Can anyone help me here?

JPG does not support transparency, so even if you create an oval with transparent background, the saved JPG will have white background. Instead, save it as a PNG, TIFF, or GIF which preserve the transparency.
Here is one of many ways to create your oval:
Create a new file the approximate size of the oval. Add the oval with the Custom Shape Ellipse tool, and simplify the shape layer.
In the Layers Palette, Ctrl-click the oval to select it and copy the selection to the clipboard (Edit > Copy).
Then do File > New from Clipboard. This creates the oval with transparent background cropped to the oval size.
Then save it as one of the file types that support transparency (and also supported by the application where you are sending the picture to).
Note: Is is not even necessary to do step 2. That is only if some reason you want the oval to be tightly cropped. It is sufficient to delete the Background layer in step 1 (or turn off its visibility) and save the file. The oval will appear correctly in the book with either version.

How do I update/insert into a target table, rows after date X

Hi all
I have a mapping from source table A to target table B. Identical table structure.
Target table A updates rows and inserts rows daily. Every week I want to synchronize this with table B.
I have CREATION_DATE and LAST_UPDATE_DATE on both tables. I want to pass in a parameter to this mapping of date X which tells the mapping:
"if CREATION_DATE is past X then do an insert of this row in B, if LAST_UPDATE_DATE is past X then do an update of this row in B"
Please can you help me work out how to map this correctly as I am new to OWB.
Many thanks
Adi

Hi,
You can achieve this by -
1. Create a control table, say Control_Table, with structure
Map Name, last_load_date. Populate this table with the mappings that synchronizes your Table B.
2. Alter mapping, that loads Table B to use the above control table to get all the records from Table A, you have to join Table A and Control_Table with the condition -
Control_Table.Map_Name = < mapping name>
AND ( TableA.Creation_Date > Control_Table.last_load_date
OR TableA.Last_Update_Date > Control_Table.last_load_date )
3. Then use UPDATE/INSERT on the Table B based on the Keys. This should take care of INSERT ( if not present) / UPDATE (if the row already exists).
4. Schedule the mapping to run on weekly basis.
5. You have to maintain the Control_Table to keep changing the values for Last_Load_Date to pick the data since the last time Table B is synchronized.

How to INSERT INTO a specific row?

I have a form with a calendar at the top, below it is a list of items each with a check box.
Here is a wonderful visual of it -
Calendar
Checkbox | Col | Col | Col
Checkbox | Col | Col | Col
Checkbox | Col | Col | Col
I want it so you select the date and it gets passed into the database in the same row as the one (definitely one, multiple is better) that has been checked by the user.
I was trying an INSERT INTO with a WHERE statement but apparently you can't do that. So if I can use a WHERE with INSERT INTO, how can I identify which row to insert the info?
Currently it is passing the dates but it creates a new row.
I didn't think posting the code is neccisary for this question but if anyone wants to see it let me know and I will post it.
THANKS!

Ah, ok, I will try UPDATE.
Right now my form looks like this...
<cfform name="requestform" role="form"action="resources/requestform.cfm" method="post" width="375" height="350" >
    <label for="startdate">Start Date:</label>
      <label for="enddate">Finish Date:</label>
    <cfcalendar name="selectedDate"
        selectedDate="#Form.selectdate#"
        startRange="#Form.startdate#"
        endRange="#Form.enddate#"
        mask="mmm dd, yyyy"
        dayNames="SU,MO,TU,WE,TH,FR,SA"
        firstDayOfWeek="1"
        monthNames="JAN, FEB, MAR, APR, MAY, JUN, JUL, AUG, SEP, OCT, NOV, DEC"
        style="rollOverColor:##FF0000"
        width="200" height="150">
            <cfinput type="dateField" name="startdate" label="Start Date" width="100" value="#Form.startdate#">
            <cfinput type="dateField" name="enddate" label="End Date" width="100" value="#Form.enddate#">
    </div>
<cfinclude
    template = "resources/query.cfm">
    <span class="label label-default">Equipment List</span>
    <table class="table table-bordered table-striped">
        <tr>
            <td><b>Select</b></td>
            <td><b>Name</b></td>
            <td><b>Description</b></td>
            <td><b>Status</b></td>
        </tr>
    <cfloop query = "equiplist">
        <cfoutput>
        <tr>
            <td>
                <cfinput name="status" type="checkbox" value="#serial#">Select:</cfinput>
                <cfinput name="serial"type="text"style="display:none" value="#serial#">
            </td>
            <td>#name#</td>
            <td>#descrip#</td>
            <td>#status#</td>
        </tr>
        </cfoutput>
</cfloop>
</table>
      <cfinput class="btn btn-default" type="Submit" value="Submit" name="addsubmit"></cfinput>
</cfform>
And the action page looks like this...
<cfquery
        name = "requestform"
        dataSource = "db_cie">
        UPDATE equip
        SET STATUS="Out",
        WHERE serial='#status#'
</cfquery>
<cflocation
    url = "../request.cfm">
But I am getting an error "invalid.user.table.column, table.column, or table specification. But the error message shows the SQL output and it looks correct...UPDATE equip SET STATUS="Out" WHERE serial="325255"... it IS getting the serial number variable passed from the form. ...No update though. Is my action form written wrong?
