Problem with order data

Hi, I have a problem with order data. A string column has these values:
A....
B....
PSTA-FRA
PSTA+FRA
Q....
R....
If i order data directly from db ( select column1 from table order by column1 ) , i obtain this result:
PSTA-FRA
PSTA+FRA
If i create a simple report on that table and order on that column the result is:
PSTA+FRA
PSTA-FRA
I can obtain correct output if I set parameter 'Perform group on server' but if i write a selection formula :
{table.column} >= 'PSTA+FRA'
record containing PSTA-FRA value not appear.
I've tried both with Crytal 8.5 and Crystal 11 R2 sp6, database is Sybase SQL Anywhere odbc connection.
Thanks in advance

Ordering is done according to the ASCII values of the characters.
In R2 create a new report and log onto your DB and select Command for your data source. Paste in the SQL you use to get the data in the order the server users. Then you don't have to use CR to do the sorting. DB Servers are much more efficient at collecting the data than CR is.
Thank you

Problems with ordering data

Hello to all the forum,
I have a database named one agenda, and have a table called registration, this table has countless fields, such as name, address, telephone etc ... I also have 3 fields in the same table called tracking, company, contact.
My problem is this, I have a select field with the following values, tracking, company, contact, like when I click on some of the values he made ordering the data according to the value set. For example when I click company, it will sort the data in descending order by company.
I'm not able to develop SQL is required.
I appreciate those who can help me.
Notes: Forgive me because I speak the English language, and I used the google translator for this need.

Subquery problems with ordering data

I need to order my data by an index. But I am pulling the data from three different tables and I'm new to SQL and using someone else's query. His original query is:
WITH subquery AS
(SELECT t1.smpl_dte, t1.pv_id,
t1.integ_over_val
FROM diag.blm_acct t1
WHERE smpl_dte BETWEEN to_date('start', 'MM-DD-
YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')
AND to_date('end', 'MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM'))
SELECT t2.sgnl_id,
SUM(subquery.integ_over_val) sumval
FROM diag.pv_sgnl_id_assc t2,
subquery
WHERE t2.pv_id = subquery.pv_id
AND sgnl_id IN(PVS)
GROUP BY t2.sgnl_id
In this query 'start' and 'end' are dates. PVS is a placeholder for a list of strings (see modified query below). This returns two columns, one of Strings, the other of floats. But I also need a third column which has the index of the item. The index is located in a separate table called diag.series_sgnl_rec_asgn which has three fields series_id(String), sgnl_id(String), and disp_ord_nbr (number). The sgnl_id is the same as that returned by the first query. I need to pull out all the sgnl_ids from this table that are equal to some series_id.
Here was my attempt to get the index (disp_ord_nbr) into the results:
WITH subquery AS
(SELECT t1.smpl_dte, t1.pv_id,
t1.integ_over_val
FROM diag.blm_acct t1
WHERE smpl_dte BETWEEN to_date('09/01/2008 12:00:00 AM', 'MM-DD-
YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')
AND to_date('09/02/2008 12:00:00 AM', 'MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')
SELECT t2.sgnl_id,
ser.disp_ord_nbr,
SUM(subquery.integ_over_val) sumval
FROM diag.pv_sgnl_id_assc t2,
diag.series_sgnl_rec_asgn ser
WHERE t2.pv_id = subquery.pv_id
AND ser.disp_ord_nbr = 'Series11'
AND t2.sgnl_id IN('Ring_Diag:BLM_A11c:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',
'Ring_Diag:BLM_A11d:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss', 'Ring_Diag:BLM_A11e:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',
'Ring_Diag:BLM_A13:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss', 'Ring_Diag:BLM_A13b:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',
'Ring_Diag:BLM_B01:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss', 'Ring_Diag:BLM_B02:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',
'Ring_Diag:BLM_B03:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss', 'Ring_Diag:BLM_B04:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss')
GROUP BY t2.sgnl_id
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Try this:
SELECT t2.sgnl_id,
       SUM(subquery.integ_over_val) sumval
FROM diag.pv_sgnl_id_assc t2,
       diag.series_sgnl_rec_asgn ser,
      (SELECT t1.smpl_dte,
              t1.pv_id,
              t1.integ_over_val
         FROM diag.blm_acct t1
        WHERE smpl_dte BETWEEN to_date('09/01/2008 12:00:00 AM',    'MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')
                           AND to_date('09/02/2008 12:00:00 AM',    'MM-DD-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM')) subquery
WHERE t2.pv_id         = subquery.pv_id
   AND t2.sgnl_id       = ser.sgnl_id
   AND ser.disp_ord_nbr = 'Series11'
   AND t2.sgnl_id IN('Ring_Diag:BLM_A11c:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',
                     'Ring_Diag:BLM_A11d:Slow60PulsesTotalLoss',

Facing problem with a date column in select query

Hi,
I am facing problem with a date column. Below is my query and its fainling with " invalid number format model" .
Query: SELECT *
FROM EMP
WHERE trunc(LAST_UPDATED) >= to_date(to_char(22-05-2009,'dd-mm-yyyy'),'dd-mm-yyyy')
LAST_UPDATED column is "DATE" data type.
Please help me Thanks

You do not need the TRUNC here in any case.
I don't think so. What if the user wants only data for 22nd May and the table has records with date later than 22nd also? In that case your query willl not work. In order for the Index to work, I think the query can be written like this I think Sean is right though. Use of TRUNC Function is quiet useless based on the condition given here, since the to_date Function used by OP will always point to midnight of the specified date, in this case 22-05-2009 00:00:00.

Edit: I think Sean proved his point... ;)

Problem with order by clause

Hai all,
I have problem with order by clause,
My query is
"select number from table1 order by number asc "
and the output is displaying as
1
10
12
13
15
17
19
2
20
21
22
But if we give order by it should display as below only right ?
1
2
10
12
13
15
17
19
20
21
22 ........
Please help me why it is not displaying like it. and how to make the statement to display like the second case. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Uraja

The column datatype that you are selecting is not of NUMBER datatype(might be char or varchar2) hence you are getting such result set.
And for this purpose, it is recommended to set datatype of a column appropriately.
For now you can add TO_NUMBER function to column in ORDER BY clause, only if it has data of number type.

Problem with Java Dates and UPDATE for SQL2000

I am having problems with the date formats for Java. I am trying to put the current date time into a SQL table, here it the code I am using:
var Today = new Date()
var conn = Server.CreateObject( "ADODB.Connection" )
conn.Open( "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=(local);Database=BillTracking;UID=sa;PWD=;")
var sql = "UPDATE BillAssignments SET DatePosted = " + Today + " WHERE AssignmentID = '" + Request.QueryString("AssignmentID") + "'"
var rs = conn.execute(sql)
I keep getting different errors and I have been unable to find a solution yet. I know that I need to change the date format from the Java standard to the one that SQL likes.
Help....

Please tell us where the Java part of this comes in. I see that you are using JavaScript to load up data via an ADO connection (presumably on an IIS platform) - but I do not see where you are using Java

Problem with order in iPhoto

problem with order in iPhoto. I can't buy a card, because there comes an Message "Ihre Karte enthält offenbar Standardtext, der noch nicht bearbeitet wurde. Gedruckte Karten enthalten diesen Text nicht. Möchten Sie fortfahren?" What should I do?

That message means that you have text boxes that have not been used. The holding text that appears in the box will not be printed. But if you want to get rid of the warning just put a space in the text box.
OR, check to see if the card layout has the same page but without a text box. Most do.

Problem with loading data to Essbase

Hi All,
I have a problem with loading data into Essbase. I've prepared maxl script to load the data, calling rule file. The source table is located in RDBMS Oracle. The script works correctly, ie. generally loads data into Essbase.
But the problem lies in the fact, that after deletion of data from Essbase, when I'm trying to load it again from the source table I get the message: WARNING - 1003035 - No data values modified by load of this data file - although there is no data in Essbase... I've also tried to change the mode of loading data from 'overwrite' to 'add to existing values' (in rule file) but it does'nt help ... Any ideas what can I do?

Problem with the date conversion

Hi Friends,
i am facing the problem with the date conversion, Actuall my requirement is to pass the date to the screen based on the user setting roles(SU01).
I have fetched the user setting date format by using the funciton module SUSR_GET_USER_DEFAULTS, The function module picks the exact user date setting (Like as MM/DD/YYYY, MM.DD.YYYY, DD.MM.YY).
After that i have implemented the FORMAT_DATE_4_OUTPUT funciton module for converting of the user role setting date format into system date format.
for the english language case the funciton module FORMAT_DATE_4_OUTPUT works fine but the funciton module not supported for other languages
Can you please provide the Function Moudle for user setting date conversion.
The funciton module is most important for us,
Thanks

PSP: problems with viewing data

Hello.
I'm currently working at on-line shop and have some problems with viewing data from database. When there is no much inserts to table its working very well. But after inserting all Inserts I have its acting weird.
Sample with 10 INSERTS:

Sample with 100 INSERTS:
http://gafgarion.atspace.com/psp/2.jpg
I'm using Oracle 9i. when I have more data in my database its acting weird. There is SELECT only from one table, but sometimes I have data from other tables aswell.
I didnt touch any config files or something else. Only created new User and DAD.
any ideas what should I do to fix that ??
thnx in advice

Hello,
My guess is that you are speaking about PLSQL Server Pages (PSP), and the PLSQL Web Toolkit.
This is why I do not think that you will have lot of answer since this forum is targeted toward Web Services developer (XML, SOAP, and so on)
I am inviting you to ask your question on the general Oracle Application Server - General or PLSQL forums.

Problems with retrieving data from tables with 240 and more records

Hi,
I've been connecting to Oracle 11g Server (not sure exact version) using Oracle 10.1.0 Client and O10 Oracle 10g driver. Everything was ok.
I installed Oracle 11.2.0 Client and I started to have problems with retrieving data from tables.
First I used the same connection string, driver and so on (O10 Oracle 10g) then I tried ORA Oracle but with no luck. The result is like this:
I'm able to connect to database. I'm able to retrieve data but from small tables (e.g. with 110 records it works perfectly using both O10 and ORA drivers). When I try to retrieve data from tables with like 240 and more records retrieval simply hangs (nothing happens at all - no error, no timeout). Application seems to hang forever.
I'm using Powerbuilder to connect to Database (either PB10.5 using O10 driver or PB12 using ORA driver). I used DBTrace, so I see that query hangs on the first FETCH.
So for the retrievals that hang I have something like:
(3260008): BIND SELECT OUTPUT BUFFER (DataWindow):(DBI_SELBIND) (0.186 MS / 18978.709 MS)
(3260008): ,len=160,type=DECIMAL,pbt=4,dbt=0,ct=0,prec=0,scale=0
(3260008): ,len=160,type=DECIMAL,pbt=4,dbt=0,ct=0,prec=0,scale=1
(3260008): ,len=160,type=DECIMAL,pbt=4,dbt=0,ct=0,prec=0,scale=0
(3260008): EXECUTE:(DBI_DW_EXECUTE) (192.982 MS / 19171.691 MS)
(3260008): FETCH NEXT:(DBI_FETCHNEXT)
and this is the last line,
while for retrievals that end, I have FETCH producing time, data in buffer and moving to the next Fetch until all data is retrieved
On the side note, I have no problems with retrieving data either by SQL Developer or DbVisualizer.
Problems started when I installed 11.2.0 Client. Even if I want to use 10.0.1 Client, the same problem occurs. So I guess something from 11.2.0 overrides 10.0.1 settings.
I will appreciate any comments/hints/help.
Thank you very much.

Installing 11g client changed something that even using old 10g client (which I still have installed) fails to work. The same problem occur no matter I'm using 10g or 11g client now. Powerbuilder hangs on retrieving tables with more than like 240 records.

Problem with a data set: DIAdem crashes

Hi,
I've got a problem with a data set. When I want to zoom in DIAdem-View, DIAdem crashes with the following message (translated from German ;-):
error type: FLOAT INEXACT RESULT or FLOAT INVALID OPERATION or FLOAT STACK CHECK
error address: 00016CB8
module name: gfsview.DLL
I've got some similar data set not showing such problems. Further on I scanned the data a bit, but in the 59000 points I didn't see anything special. I did try to delete "NOVALUE"s as well, but after that there still exist "NOVALUE"s.
Does anyone have an idea what to look for?
Thanks,
Carsten

Carsten,
Could you please upload you Citadel database to the following FTP site:
ftp.ni.com/incoming
If you want to compress (ZIP) and/or put a password on the data, that's fine. Please send me a private email at [email protected] (with the file name and password if you put one on the file) once you have uploaded the file and I will check it out.

Problem with input data format - not "only" XML

Hi Experts,
I have problem with input data format.
I get some data from JMS ( MQSeries) , but input format is not clear XML.
This is some like flat file with content of XMLu2026.
Example:
0000084202008-11-0511:37<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document xmlns="urn:xsd:test.01" xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance Sndr="0001" Rcvr="SP">
...content....
</Document>000016750
Problems in this file is :
1. data before parser <? xml version="1.0"> -> 0000084202008-11-0511:37
2. data after last parser </Document> -> 000016750
This data destroy XML format.
Unfortunately XI is not one receiver of this files and we canu2019t change this file format in queue MQSeries ( before go to XI) .
My goal is to get XML from this file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Document xmlns="urn:xsd:test.01" xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance Sndr="0001" Rcvr="SP">
...content....
</Document>
My questions:
1. Is any way or technique to delete this data 0000084202008-11-0511:37 in XI from this file ?
2. Is any way to get only XML from this file ?
Thanx .
Regards,
Seo

Hi Buddy
What is the XI adapter using?
If you use inbound File adapter content conversion you could replace these values with none and then pass it to the scenario.
Does that help?
