Problem with IN Clause in Query

hi,
i have a query
select RECPT_FRM_DE,tenq_no from enq_folloup where tenq_no in ('&dumy_enq')
in this the tenq_no of the table is varchar2 and the &dummy_enq which comes from the user screen is also of char type. but when the user enters 1260,1265 in the user screen as a comma seperated values to query for both values, not data is returned. but if try in sql by removing the quotes from this ie just &dummy_enq it gets the data. how to correct this
kris

hi,
in the front end there is only a single entry field, in which the user enters the data, it is of type char and user enters value 1260,1265 in this field. when it is passed it becomes '1260,1265' there is no appending.....

Problem with IN clause substitution in Sybase

I am experiencing a problem with IN clause substitution in
embedded SQL with a Sybase databse.
My Cold Fusion server is MX 7.
The Database is Adaptive Server Enterprise/12.5.0.3/EBF 10689
IR/P/Sun_svr4/OS 5.8/rel12503/1915/64-bit/FBO/Thu Jan 23 16:05:19
2003
Here's the problem. I have a Cold Fusion variable
bureau_incode which I am using to define the values in my IN
clause. When I comment out my query and display this value to the
HTML page, bureau_incode has the following value:
('OET','OGC','OIG','OLA','OMD','OMR','OSP','OTHER','OWD','PSHSB','WCB','WTB')
My embedded SQL CFQUERY looks like this:
quote:
<cfquery name="qResults" datasource="#request.dsn#">
Select Name,
bureau_code,
Telephone,
CellPhone,
Pager,
Email,
Availability,
Explanation,
Password,
Admin,
last_login = convert(varchar(20),last_login,0)
from PAMS where Availability = 'N'
<cfif #request.seltype# IS NOT "ALL">
and bureau_code IN #bureau_incode#
</cfif>
</cfquery>
When the code runs, I get the error
Error Executing Database Query. Incorrect syntax near 'OET'.
There is no incorrect syntax. Is there any special way to
submit the IN clause to ColdFusion MX 7? Previously, we were using
ColdFusion 4.5 (I believe) server, and the code worked perfectly,
albiet with double-quotes in the replacement string. Any help would
be appreciated. This type of substitution worked nicely in the
previous server version, I can't imagine why it would no longer
work.

No, I am not. The parentheses are part of the #bureau_incode#
coldfusion variable. I've edited the first message to make this
more clear. I have tried the query with the parentheses in the
#bureau_incode# variable, and with the parentheses in the CFquery
with (#bureau_incode#). The results are always the same.
I will indeed try to help with other stuff in the future. :)
Thanks for trying to help!

Hi! Everyone, I have some problems with JOIN and Sub-query; Could you help me, Please?

Dear Sir/Madam
I'm a student who is interested in Oracle Database and
I have some problems with JOIN and Sub-query.
I hope so many of you could help me.
if i use JOIN without sub-query, may it be faster or not?
SELECT field1, field2 FROM tableA INNER JOIN tableB
if i use JOIN with sub-query, may it be faster or not?
SELECT field1,field2,field3 FROM tableA INNER JOIN (SELECT field1,field2 FROM tableB)
Thanks in advance!

As the others have said, the execution plan will give you a better idea about which is faster.
If you're trying to see how using (or not using) a sub-query affects performance, make the rest of the queries as similar as possible. For example, include field3 in both queries, or ignore field3 in both queries.
In this particular case, I guess the optimizer would do the same thing either way, but that's just a guess. I can't see your execution plans.
In general, simpler code is faster, and better in other ways, too. In this case
tableB
is simpler than
(SELECT field1, field2 FROM tableB)
Why do you want a sub-query in this example?

Problem with performance of a query having order by, distinct clause

Hi,
I have a problem with queries having order by, distinct clause.
While its executing its taking lot of time. With DBMS_PROFILER identified the queries taking long time.
The table is having approximately 70 million rows.
Problem -1
select * from table_name order by col1;
select distinct col1,col2 from table_name;
Here i am having 2 solutions request to let me know whether i am right if not suggest me right solution.
Solution1:
Max parallel servers is 8.
select /* + parallel(table_name,8) */ * from table_name order by col1;
select /* + parallel(table_name,8) */ distinct col1, col2 from table_name ;
Solution-2:
select /* + first_rows */ * from table_name order by col1;
select /* + first_rows */ distinct col1, col2 from table_name ;
Problem-2
I am having a query with where condition on columns.
Select * from table_name where col1='value1' and col2!='value2';
Index created on col1 and col2.
As we no that not equal won't use index as it is a composite index it should use the lead column. but its not using the index.
Should i forcibly use index with hint or suggest me better solution.
Any help really appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Here i am having 2 solutions request to let me know whether i am right if not suggest me right solution.Who knows if you choosed the right solution. I would suggest to reconsider your query and the need of 70,000,000 returned rows.

A problem with LOV and my query. Help to solve, please...

Hello!
Here is a query:
SELECT FULLNAME||', '||(SELECT NAMEOFGROUP||', '||(SELECT CITY FROM CITY WHERE PRKEY=TLL.CITY) FROM GROUPS TLL WHERE PRKEY=TL.GROUPOF) t ,PRKEY r FROM MINEUSERS TL
In SQL DEVELOPER it works fine. But in APEX - when I try to save my "SELECT LIST" - it falls with error - "If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query."
How can I reassemble my query to fix this problem - I have no idea... :(
Thanks

You may create a pipelined function returning two values, display and return, to return
the result from your query. After that, your LOV should work. See example here:

Problem with cascading dependent LOV query running when it should not

I have a page fragment with a regular ADF form on it that I use to add new entries to a table. This form has many fields on it with LOV’s associated with them. I have dependent LOV’s on some of them. The one case I have is I have three fields A, B, and C. Field C is dependent on A and B. The problem I seem to be having is when I enter a value for field A using it’s LOV, I get an hourglass for a long time after I select it and before it is displayed on the form. If I delete field C from the form the problem goes away. If I change the query behind the view for the LOV for field C to include a rownum < 20 in the where clause the problem goes away. My question is, why would the selection of a value for field A cause the query to fire for field C’s LOV view and how can I stop it. I don’t really want to use the rownum in the where clause.

i had lot of question?
The problem I seem to be having is when I enter a value for field A using it’s LOV, I get an hourglass for a long time
ok. are using? any complex query to pick the lov 'a' .
Answer: The LOV for A is based on a read only non-EO view with a SQL that is not really very complex. The LOV definition does set multiple values when the selection is made to blank out dependent fields in the data model used by the main form.
after I select it and before it is displayed on the form.
here i cant undestud?
Answer. The order of things is I open the main form, I click the mag glass to open the LOV popup, I select the row I want and click the OK button. Navigation returns to the main form where I get the hourglass waiting for the selected value to be displayed in the field on the main form.
If I delete field C from the form the problem goes away. If I change the query behind the view for the LOV for field C to include a rownum < 20 in the where clause the problem goes away.
ok.
why are you going to delete the value of c?. At intial stage you can make empty after selecting a and/or b you can load into c.
Answer: I physically deleted field C from the main form to see if that was what was causing the long delay. When I run the main form without field C I do not get the hourglass. That is how I know they are related.
My question is, why would the selection of a value for field A cause the query to fire for field C’s LOV view and how can I stop it.
you may set partial trigger to c depends for 'a'.
or else lov 'c' query depends on 'a'
Answer. The query for C's LOV does depend on the value returned when I select a value for A. They are cascading LOV's. Will setting the partial trigger stop the SQL for field C from running? Is the SQL running because I'm blanking out field C when I change the value for field A?
am not sure i understud correctly. can you pictuarize you problem with an example.

Problem with parameter and sql query

I've a problem with te query of my report. The query is:
SELECT [DESCRIPTN]
      ,[LOGTIME]
      ,[STATUS]
      ,[CARDNO]
      ,[LOGDATE]
FROM [Granta5P0].[dbo].[TIMELOG32]
where cardno in ({?cardNo})
the parameter as multiple values checked so I can query for more than one card.
If i put just one parameter everything works fine but when I put 2 or more I have his error
[http://www.megagaleria.com/pictures/Pic_10074_25.jpg]
I realized that the field as no ' delimiting the parameters, I have a function that already does it but I don't know how to put it in my sql command.
If anyone can help I appreciate

Yes, because your parameter is only looking for one card.
where cardno in ({?cardNo})
Will you only be creating querys on two cards or less ?
Are you trying to create an Array?
If two or less you could
where cardno = ({?cardNo}) or cardno = ({?cardNo2})

Problems with OLE Container in QUERY

Hi all,
I have problem with OLE Container when I am trying to retrieve data from the database. Inserting is no problem and commit is done. I am doing it with
initialize_container('block.ole_object','C:\test.doc');
I have only one column of BLOB type and it is last in the block as it was suggested somewhere on the forum.
When I am trying to retrieve the already inserted data I get error with the following
Description:
FRM-40505: Oracle ERROR: unable to perform query and CTRL+F1 says the following:
ORA-00932: inconsistent data types: expected got
The forms and the database are as follow:
Forms [32 Bit] Version 6.0.8.24.1 (Production)
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.1.0.4.2 - Production
I need immediate help!!!

This may be related to the 10g database, I'm not sure as there is no way for me to test it. I know that it works with a 9i database.
One thing to check is to make sure that you don't have the FORMS60_DISABLE_DESCRIBE set to 1 within the Oracle registry.
If this doesn't work, your only option might be to use a LONG RAW instead of a BLOB column type in the database.

Problem with IN clause in..........

hello
select RECPT_FRM_DE,tenq_no from enq_folloup where tenq_no in (:dumy_enq)
in this :dummy_enq is a field with char as data type and tenq_no of the table is varchar2. when i enter more than one value in the :dummy_enq field with comma seperation ( eg. 1260,1265 ) no data is selected. how to correct this ?

First, could you edit your post above and change the subject to something like: Problem with IN (...) clause
Oracle does not parse the value in :dummy_enq. If you really want to use an IN list, you need to create multiple fields, and use:
select RECPT_FRM_DE,tenq_no from enq_folloup
where tenq_no in (:dumy_enq1, :dumy_enq2, :dumy_enq3)

Problem with Spin control in query pane

I have a problem with the Spin controller (increment /decrement) in the query pane.
It is not working for fields with decimals, but working properly for fields which do not have decimals.
How to overcome this problem?

Can you help me to reproduce the issue(Do you have any simple application illustrating the issue)? It works in the sample I tried

Problem with LIMIT in my query...

I am sending this query with JSP to my Oracle database:
SELECT pub, class, startdate, adtext FROM classifieds WHERE (pub='KWR') AND
(startdate<='03-Jan-02') ORDER BY pub LIMIT 0, 25
I keep getting the error:
"Exception=java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended"
If I remove the LIMIT 0, 25 it works just fine and returns all records, what am I doing wrong?

numrows=>26 AND numrows<=50 I doubt that that will work either. But you can try. Oracle has something like that (although I am not sure is is called 'numrows'). However, it doesn't allow ranges. It allows you to return only the top ones (the less than expression) And it doesn't work with order by clauses.
Someone, sometime ago, suggested a solution in this forum which solved both of these problems. If you search for the correct keyword (not 'numrows') you will likely find it.

Urgent: Performance problem with where clause using IN and an OR condition

Select statement is:

and r2.fyi_list is null
          and r2.sequence_number <> 0))
or
(:1 is null))
If I modify the statement to remove the "or (:1 is null))" part at the bottom of the where clause, it returns in .16 seconds. If I modify the statement to only contain the "(:1 is null))" part of the where clause, it returns in .02 seconds. With the whole statement above, it returns in 477 seconds. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for the reply, but I have already checked what you are suggesting and I am pretty sure those are not causing the problem. The hr2.full_name column has an upper index and the (4) line of the explain plan shows that index being used. In addition, that part of the query executes on its own quickly.
Because the sql is not displayed in an indented format on this page it is a little hard to understand the structure so I am going to restate what is happening.
My sql is:
select a_column
from a_table
where ((:1 is not null) and a_column in (sub-select statement)
or
(:1 is null))
The :1 bind variable is set to a varchar2 entered on the screen of an application.
If I execute either part of the sql without the OR condition, performance is good.
If the :1 bind variable is null with the whole sql statement (so all rows or a_table are returned), performance is still good.
If the :1 bind variable is a not-null value with the whole sql statement, performance stinks.
As an example:
where (('wa' is not null) and a_column in (sub-select statement)) -- fast
where (('wa' is null)) -- fast
where (('' is not null) and a_column in (sub-select statement) -- fast
or
('' is null))
where (('wa' is not null) and a_column in (sub-select statement) -- slow
or
('wa' is null))

It also runs properly if I remove both "WHERE h.data_dt BETWEEN '01-SEP-06' AND '31-OCT-08'" (line 25) and "AND x.pmc_cancel_fg = 'F'" (third line from the end).
Also, there are three different external sites; the problems happen on two of them, but on a third, the code works as is.
The query also works if:
* I remove the links and run it directly on the external sites
* I add something that makes it return no rows immediately (for example, "AND 0 = 1" as the last line)
* "WHERE h.data_dt BETWEEN '01-SEP-06' AND '31-OCT-08'" is replaced by "WHERE h.data_dt = '30-SEP-09'" (which returns rows)
* For that matter, at one of the problem sites, changing the first date in that WHERE clause to anything between '19-JUN-09' and '29-SEP-09' works, but '18-JUN-09' and earlier causes the error; at the other, the earliest working date is '02-NOV-08'.
All three external databases, as well as the database on which this is run, are running 11.2.0.1.0 64-bit Production.
Any ideas as to what is happening?

When a DATE datatype is desired, then use TO_DATE() function.Actually, usually I do (since there's no guarantee as to what the "default" date format will be - besides, the default tends to be 2-year dates). The one line where I don't is really just something I added to speed up the query when testing for the error.
However changing that line to:
WHERE h.data_dt BETWEEN TO_DATE('09/01/2006', 'MM/DD/YYYY') AND TO_DATE('10/31/2008', 'MM/DD/YYYY')causes the same results.

Problem with using a Spatial Query in a report region

All: I am trying to create a report region using the below query. The query is syntactically correct and returns 10 rows. I have checked it out in SQL Developer AND in APEX SQL Workshop. It returns rows in 1-2 seconds.
However, after putting the query into a report region, the APEX page locks up when it runs. I've tried masking it in a view, using other functions. I can places the spatial function in the select clause and it works. However, placing the function in the Where clause causes the page to lock up.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
