Output of select query in a single line

hi,
I want to know how to get the each row in a table to be printed in a single line.. Each row in the table will be of 1500 characters length..
Thanks

Is there any limit to the value that we can specify
for linesize.. I read somewhere that the max value is
dependent on systemIn [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/ch12040.htm#SQPUG085]the documentation, they don't talk about a maximum, but I saw there is one:
SQL> set linesize 1500
SQL> set linesize 32767
SQL> set linesize 32768
SP2-0267: linesize optie 32768 ligt buiten toegestane bereik (1 t/m 32767).Regards,
Rob.

3 buttons and 2 select lists in a single line

Hi,
I have an application which has 3 region buttons ( say, b_1, b_2, b_3) and 2 selects lists (say, sl_1, sl_2). I want to display all the five buttons and items in a single line in the following order:
b_1 b_2 sl_1 b_3 sl_2
I have set Begin on new line = no
and Begin on new field = no, for both the two select lists.
But it does not seem to work.
Do anyone have any idea, how to sort out this issue?
A quick reply would really be appreciated.
Regards,
AM

Hi Vikas,
Please have a look into the application at
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=34363:1:6206621111100168:::::
I have created two select lists P1_X and P1_Y. These items are hidden on page load event. When the associated button is clicked the list should appear on the page.
Written the following code in 'Pre element text' for each of the items:
P1_X :: <input type="button" value="X" onclick="f_X();" class="t17Button" />
P1_Y:: <input type="button" value="Y" onclick="f_Y();" class="t17Button" />
Where, f_X() and f_Y() are displaying the select lists.
As you can see, the select lists are appearing just below the html buttons, which I want side by side with the buttons.
Could you please figure out the issue?
If you want I can share my login details.
Regards,
AM

Simplify the select query to get single record

Please let me know what is wrong with my query.
Max(p_received_date) is returning null columns too. But i need to have only null record per period, if there is date and null record for the same billing then return the date record. please check november and september records. september should return only 09/13/10 record but it is returning null record too. please help to get expected out put.

GROUP BY company, billing,LastPaymentDate;
Note:in the actual out put max(lastpayment date) is returing null values. if there is any date in one billing return that date only remove null example is september. in september it should return only 09/13/10 this date not null date. but if there is no other within one biling then consider that as null example november..

Another solution is setting NLS_SORT to CI - case insensitive (or whatever_your_language_is_CI) and NLS_COMP to ANSI:
SQL> with t as (
2             select 'HARI' name from dual union all
3             select 'Hari' name from dual union all
4             select 'HaRi' name from dual
5            )
6 select *
7    from t
8    where name = 'hArI'
9 /

To lock the output of a SELECT query

Hi,
I want to lock the output of a SELECT query to some transaction.
I have wriiten it as follows , the output of the query is a single row;
SELECT empname
FROM employees
where empid = 100
FOR UPDATE;
Specifying only FOR UPDATE is proper or do i need to specify some more clause ??
Thanks.

bscalzo wrote:
You can also specify the columns to lock if you like:
select x, y, z from aaa where x = 1 for update of x, y;
But the locking is still currently only done at the row level - but who knows what the future might offer. May not hurt to have the columns named for thay day when the syntax and engine sync up :)It might be worth to amend that specifying the columns is already particularly relevant if you select from multiple tables/views in order to specify which rows of which table/view to lock.

Hi Pramod,
Why don't u try with use of UTL FILE.
select the necessary values into some local variables.
With the use of utl_file.fopen open a file.
And use utl_file.put_line to write the values
in to the file.
Try it and let me know.

Need help in writing a select query to pull required data from 3 tables.

Hi,
I have three tables EmpIDs,EmpRoles and LatestRoles. I need to write a select Query to get roles of all employees present in EmpIDs table by referring EmpRoles and LatestRoles.
The condition is first look into table EmpRoles and if it has more than one entry for a particular Employee ID than only need to get the Role from LatestRoles other wise consider
the role from EmpRoles .
Sample Script:
Create Table #EmpIDs
(EmplID int )
Create Table #EmpRoles
(EMPID int,Designation varchar(50))
Create Table #LatestRoles
EmpID int,
Designation varchar(50)
Insert into #EmpIDs values (1),(2),(3)
Insert into #EmpRoles values (1,'Role1'),(2,'Role1'),(2,'Role2'),(3,'Role1')
Insert into #LatestRoles values (2,'Role2')
Employee ID 2 is having two roles defined in EmpRoles so for EmpID 2 need to fetch Role from LatestRoles table and for
remaining ID's need to fetch from EmpRoles .
My Final Output of select query should be like below.
EmpID Role
1 Role1
2 Role2
3 Role1
Please help.
Mohan

Mohan,
Can you check if this answers your requirement:
Create Table #EmpIDs
(EmplID int )
Create Table #EmpRoles
(EMPID int,Designation varchar(50))
Create Table #LatestRoles
EmpID int,
Designation varchar(50)
Insert into #EmpIDs values (1)
Insert into #EmpIDs values (2)
Insert into #EmpIDs values (3)
Insert into #EmpRoles values (1,'Role1')
Insert into #EmpRoles values (2,'Role2')
Insert into #EmpRoles values (2,'Role1')
Insert into #EmpRoles values (3,'Role1')
Insert into #LatestRoles values (2,'Role2')
--Method 1
select e.EmplID,MIN(ISNULL(l.Designation,r.Designation)) as Designation
from #empids e
left join #emproles r on e.emplID=r.EmpID
left join #latestRoles l on e.emplID=l.EmpID
group by e.EmplID
--Method 2
;with cte
as
select distinct e.EmplID,r.Designation,count(*) over(partition by e.emplID) cnt
from #empids e
left join #emproles r on e.emplID=r.EmpID
select emplID,Designation
from cte
where cnt=1
UNION ALL
select a.EmplID,l.Designation
from
(select distinct EmplID from cte where cnt>1) a
join #Latestroles l on a.EmplID=l.EmpID
order by emplID

Mercator xml single line translation

hi guys,
I have a map that reads in an xml file and outputs an edifact msg.
When the xml is formatted, i.e spaced apart according to the tags, the map performs fine.
Unfortunately, my xml file is generated by another application that outputs the xml all on one single line.
i.e
<line1>A</line1><line2>B</line2><line3>C</line3>when i run the input file (single line xml) through the map, i get an invalid input message!!
I've already removed all the <cr> and <nl> from all the Terminators in my input type tree, but i still get an Invalid input error message. has anyone experianced this before?
Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Mallik,
I do not think that this can be achieved in XML to XML (unless you can create a specific module and add to the module tab)
But if you create say a CSV or TXT file and use the <b>Content Conversion Parameters</b> option
Here you can specify the fieldSeparator to be 'nl'
<b>Input</b>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<record>
<field1>f1</field1>
<field2>f2</field2>
<field3>f3</field3>
</record>
<b>Output</b>
f1
f2
f3
Here you have retained your data and each field is separated by a new line. Unfortunatley with this method you lose your XML tags

Mike

MSSQL Query/View Single Line Output For Combined Multiple Data Elements - Possible Pivot Table?

HELLO...
I hope you experts out there can help me. Consider the following (2) Tables in MSSQL:
1. TENDERED --> Primary Key = DATE / DOC_NO / PAYMENT_SEQ_NO
DATE
DOC_NO
PMNT_SEQ_NO
PAYCODE_TYPE
AMOUNT
2. TENDERED_CR_CARD -->Primary Key = DATE / DOC_NO / PAYMENT_SEQ_NO
DATE
DOC_NO
PMNT_SEQ_NO
CR_CARD_NO_MASKED
CR_CARD_NAME
CR_CARD_EXP_DATE
These two tables are certainly related, based on their Primary Key values.
Now, consider the following data in those two tables:
DATE
DOC_NO      PMNT_SEQ_NO
PAYCODE_TYPE

OK...so what we NEED...is a Combined, SINGLE RECORD Audit Report type query.
The resulting query should show, based on the Data from above, the SINGLE LINE represented in the Attached Spreadsheet.
NOTE...what's important to point out here..is that ONLY the 'CASH' Tender gets "summed"...EACH INDIVIDUAL Credit Card record MUST have its own Field...as represented in the corresponding Columns of the Spreadsheet (i.e. PMT_TYP_1, AMT_1, PMT_TYP_2,
AMT_2, and so forth).
PLEASE HELP! Any suggestions/advice would be most appreciated!
Thank You!...Mark

I would not do this in SQL if I could possibly avoid it. Instead do it in the front end.
If you must do it in SQL, this is a dynamic pivot on multiple columns. Naomi Nosonovsky has a blog at
http://blogs.lessthandot.com/index.php/DataMgmt/DataDesign/dynamic-pivot-on-multiple-columns/ on how to do that. Look especially at her second example using the claims table. Of course, you must do some manipulation even before you do the multi-column
pivot, since you must first combine all the cash entries.
So one way to do it would be to build a temp table with all the entries you have except the cash entries combined into one payment sequence number. To do that you may need specifications that are not clear to me from what you have given us. For
example, if PMT SEQ 1 is VISA, PMT SEQ 2 is CASH, PMT SEQ 3 is VISA, PMT SEQ 4 is CASH, and PMT SEQ 5 is VISA, you want to combine the two cash payments. So they become PMT SEQ 2? If so, what happens to PMT SEQ 4 - is it left N/A or does
PMT SEQ 5 become PMT SEQ 4?
But once you have this temp table with the cash payments combined in the algorithm you need, then you can use Naomi's method to do the multi-column pivot. Note that Naomi uses the code
FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS
WHERE TABLE_Name = 'Claims'
to get the column names from the permanent table Claims. To get the column names from a temp table use code like the following. To find the column names in a temp table named #MyTempTable, do
From tempdb.sys.columns
Where object_id = OBJECT_ID('#MyTempTable')
But as I say, if feasible, I would do this in the front end, not in SQL. T-SQL is a very good language for storing and retrieving data, not so good at formatting it.

CohQL command line Tool select query output in file (unix)

Ho to insert Coherence CohQL command line Tool select query result in file in unix platform. I have tried below query but failed
query.cmd -s -c -l "select * from 'dist-example'" >myOutput.txt
I also tried below query, result is displayed in command line but no file is created in folder.
select * from dist-example >myOutput.txt
I also tried one more query, result is displayed in command line but no file is created in folder.
select * from dist-example >/opt/bin/myOutput.txt

Hi,
In Unix you should use query.sh instead of query.cmd
In your case then the command would be smething like:
query.sh -s -c -l "select * from 'dist-example'" >myOutput.txt
You can also try using '>>' instead of '>' in order to redirect to a text file.
Hope this helps.

Query - Get data from the same table and field two times on a single line

I have prepared a query showing the bill of material. At each line each component will be a new line and I want to have the description of the material at the top (the master material composed of the component ones) and also the description of the component materials on the same line. This means that I should be able to use MAKT table 2 times on a single line of the query. I have used the query tool with SQ01 and SQ02 tcodes. How can I get the the description of the material at the top and also the description of the component material on a single line?
Thanks in advance for the answers.

Yasar,
Any time you wish to use a table twice in an SQ01 query, you have to create an alias.
SQ02 > select the infoset, 'change' > go to Join definitions.
Select 'Alias' button. Create. Select your table name (such as MAKT) and define an alias, such as 'COMP_MAKT' for component descriptions.
Now you can insert the Alias table into your infoset just like it was a regular table, and use standard join method to join COMP_MAKT to your component material number.
Best regards,
DB49

Select query in case of Multiple line items

Hi Gurus ,
              I've a doubt in general SQL select query. I want to know , if suppose I've an internal table - itab . I've fetched G/L Account numbers 1st, based on the input selections . Next , I want to loop on those G/L accounts. However, if the G/L account has multiple line items, then I personally use this select query -- >
loop at itab.
select <field> from <table> appending corresponding fields of <itab1> where hkont eq itab-hkont.
endloop.
Now, the execution time for this query is longer than expected. The biggest problem here is, i've to sum up the totals as well. So totaling is an added load. I want to reduce the execution time of this. Kindly suggest me some good method in case u have any.
I've pasted the code which I've written , for u ppl to understand--
SELECT DISTINCT HKONT BELNR
FROM BSIS
   INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE OTAB
    WHERE HKONT IN S_RACCT
*      AND PRCTR IN P_PRCTR
      AND MONAT IN S_POPER
      AND BUKRS EQ P_BUKRS
      AND GJAHR EQ P_GJAHR
      AND PRCTR IN S_PRCTR.
***The code below takes a lot of time to execute.***
LOOP AT OTAB .
SELECT DMBTR HKONT
FROM BSIS APPENDING CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE CREDITS
    WHERE HKONT EQ OTAB-HKONT
      AND BELNR EQ OTAB-BELNR
      AND MONAT IN S_POPER
      AND BUKRS EQ P_BUKRS
      AND GJAHR EQ P_GJAHR
      AND PRCTR IN S_PRCTR
      AND SHKZG EQ 'H'.
COLLECT CREDITS.
ENDLOOP.

Hi,
First of all try to avoid doing select into corresponding fields. THis would improve the performance of the program.
Try to do a single fetch from the BSIS table . fetch the hkont, belnr, dmbtr fields in to a master internal table. Manipulate and play with the data as required. Don't hit the data base table more than once (unless it is required) . This would improve the performance of your code.
Try to code this way.
types: begin of ty_bsis,
             hkont type hkont,
             belnr type belnr_d,
             dmbtr type dmbtr,
          end of ty_bsis.
data: it_bsis type standard table of ty_bsis,
         wa_bsis type ty_bsis,
select hkont belnr dmbtr
          from bsis
          into table it_bsis
          WHERE HKONT IN S_RACCT
        AND PRCTR IN P_PRCTR
          AND MONAT IN S_POPER
         AND BUKRS EQ P_BUKRS
         AND GJAHR EQ P_GJAHR
          AND PRCTR IN S_PRCTR.
Using the data availabe in the it_bsis, you can manipulate as required.
Hope this would be helpful

How to print long raw text data in report output in single line?

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to print raw comma separated text data in the report output which end user will open in excel and can sort as required. I can not directly generate excel output.
Now there is huge set of data and each row from the report query should be get printed on single line, It should not get printed on the next line.
I tried to extending the report with 240 characters but still there are some text data which is getting printed on the next line.
Please share your view if someone has any solution on this issue.
Thanks in Advance.
Arun

Make the report even wider. By default a report layout can be 10 pages wide. If you need more, change the "Max. Horizontal Body Pages" property, and extend your layout too.
IMHO, I wouldn't even use Reports to create a csv file. Utl_file or an sqlplus script that spools to a file are better options I think.

How to format generated XML using XMLELEMENT() my output is coming in a single line i want it to be in a XML format

hi I am having problem in formatting XML file which I generated with xmlelement() when I execute it gives me putput in a single line
is there any way that I got my output as a XML file HAS......

That is expected behavior. PRETTY print(ing) is only needed for humans. XML Parsers don't need the XML to be pretty printed. If you open the XML file in a browser like Windows Explorer or Firefox, the browser will pretty print the output for you.
In all, the "single line" output is done because of PERFORMANCE reasons (lack of unneeded end of line and CTRL line breaks etc)
SELECT xmlelement("Employee Name", dummy) as "XML RESULT"
FROM DUAL;
<Employee Name>X</Employee Name>
SELECT xmlelement("Employee Name", xmlelement("SurName", dummy)
                                 , xmlelement("LastName", dummy)
                 ) as "XML RESULT"
FROM DUAL;
<Employee Name><SurName>X</SurName><LastName>X</LastName></Employee Name>
XMLSERIALIZE can pretty print the output if needed via INDENTation
SELECT XMLSERIALIZE(CONTENT xmlelement("Employee Name", xmlelement("SurName", dummy), xmlelement("LastName", dummy)) as CLOB indent SIZE=1 )
FROM DUAL;
<Employee Name>
     <SurName>X</SurName>
     <LastName>X</LastName>
</Employee Name>
