You should not create any function to get this output. It should be a Select statement. You can use 8i features. You can exclude the comma between the values instead of that you can put spaces. No hard coding.
Thank you in advance.

  • Retrieve floating point data with an sql select statement

    Hi
    I'm quite new to using sql but I have a system working where I can read and write strings to an access database.
    Now I want to retrieve a a float, from a field where another field in the same post corresponds to a specified float, with a select statement.
    When using strings I wrote
    SELECT column_name FROM [table_name] WHERE column2_name='value'
    in my query.
    But instead of getting the desired value I get an error message telling me that I have a
    "Data type mismatch in criteria expression".
    I think I understand why but does anybody know what I should have written instead?

    Is the data type of column2_name String?  If it's not, I think the single-quotes you have around 'value' will cause that error.

  • JDBC comm.channel issue with MS SQL select statement

    Hello,
    We are using JDBC adapter to connect to an MS SQL database.
    This is the comm.channel config.
    com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:sqlserver://<DNSname>:1433;databaseName=PSMI
    Activation of channel is successful.
    But when starting a select on a table of the database we will get this error for any table there in comm.channel monitoring.
    Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 'TABLENAME' (structure 'STATEMENT'): com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Invalid object name 'SAP_Header'.

    The table is existing because we can access it from excel database connect.
    The connect address is the same in Excel as in comm.channel.
    Installed driver is for JDBC for 2000/2005 (1.2/4). for JDK 1.4
    Your help is really appreciated!
    Best regards
    Dirk

    Hi Dirk,
    This is the comm.channel config.
    com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:sqlserver://<DNSname>:1433;databaseName=PSMI
    I hope the DNSname you using is your Server name of the SQL Server (IP/ServerName) you trying to connect to.
    Please ensure that if you are using Hostname the entry is made in the host file at server level against the IP.
    Try using the Connection string as :
    jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://IP(hostname)\ServerName;DatabaseName

  • Still having problem with this sql select... any suggestions!  tx

    The following code has a result, I need to modify the select somehow which only gives me the rows which are common between all PLSTS.
    Any suggestions?

    SELECT DISTINCT P.PLST, P.MENU, I.PNL, P.ACCESS

    WHERE P.MENU = I.MENU
    AND P.PNL = I.PNL
    AND P.MENU IN ('MSN, CPP')
    AND P.ACESS >= 8
    AND EXISTS
    (SELECT K.PLST,COUNT (*)

    --AND P.PLST !=K.PLST

    This is the result with having count (*) = 2 and plst !=plst comment

  • Javascript and sql select statement

    I am working in html db in the 10 g environment. I'm trying to create an "auto suggestion function" that predicts values as the user enters characters into a text field. I've gotten it to work by hard coding the values in the function, ie: states. btw: there are several external javascript files at work here.
    What I want is to create a dynamic link to the database to gather, say, all names of providers at the time the page is built to use in the auto suggest format. I want to put this into a javascript routine and I'm having problems finding out how to mix the sql select statement into the javascript function.
    For the states example, I'm using:
    function StateSuggestions() {
    this.states = [
    "Alabama", "Alaska", "Arizona", "Arkansas",
    "California", "Colorado", "Connecticut",..."Wyoming" ];
    Can I substitute the hard coded data (states) with a sql select statement such
    as:
    select name from <dbtable> ???
    How does this need to be "wrapped" or containerized?
    Thank you. You have a great product in html db and your site is very useful. I appreciate everything you have done to assist us. Again, thank you.

    Hi,
    You can use TRUNC with 2 arguments to get the first DATE in a month, year, quarter, week, hour, minute, ISO year, ...
    SELECT  TRUNC ( ADD_MONTHS ( SYSDATE
                               , 12
                  , 'MONTH'
                  )     AS first_of_month
    FROM    dual
    ;The DATE returned will be in the same month, year, quearter, ... as the first argument.
    \We convered the last day of the month in [your previous question|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=3942939#3942939].
    At that time, I warded about using LAST_DAY as a cutoff point; TRUNC is a much better way.
    For example, to find all appointment_dates in the current month next year:
    SELECT  *
    FROM    appointments
    WHERE   appointment_date >= TRUNC (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE, 12), 'MONTH')
    AND     appointment_date <  TRUNC (ADD_MONTHS (SYSDATE, 13), 'MONTH')Note that
    the first part of the WHERE clause calls for dates on or equal to the beginning of the 12th month in the future, but
    the second part of the WHERE clause calls for dates before, not equal to , the beginning of the 13th month in the future.

    I need a select query for the above output.
    i.e,here i calculated total as sum(amount) for each row,i.e,3000 = 1000+2000,6000 = 1000+2000+3000,10000 = 1000+2000+3000+4000 by this way my calculation for total field

    Seems like you want to convert a SQL statement from the ??? dialect to the Oracle dialect. *(It would be useful to indicate the non-ANSI standard SQL you are starting with.)
    Part of the problem is that you use several date related functions. Some are unnecessary in Oracle and some need to translated into Oracle functions as found in the Functions section (chapter 5) of the SQL Reference manual at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/homepage
    Note that columns and expressions of type 'date' in ORacle always contain all of "yyyy mm dd hh mi ss" and you need to format and trauncate as necessary.
    Also note that '09-JAN-31' is NOT an Oracle date, but rather a character representation of a date which must be converted to/from a date expression. You will often need to use the to_date() and to_char() functions with a format mask as the second parameter. This is also descreibed in the first 2 chapters of the SQL Reference manual.

  • Problem with writing and reading using serialization

    I am having a problem with writing and reading an object that has another object in it. The purpose of the class is to write a order that has multiple items in it. And there will be several orders. This is for an IB project, where one of the requirements is to utilize a hierarchical composite data structure. That is, it is "one that contains more than one element and at least one of the elements is a composite data structure. Examples are, an array or linked list of records, a record that has one field that is another record, or an array". The code is shown below:

  • Using column number inplace of column name in SQL Select statement

  • Exporting SQL Select statement to spreadsheet

    Hi all, basic question that I couldn't find the answer to while googling and searching the Oracle documentation.
    What is the code for exporting the result of a SQL Select statement to a spreadsheet such as Excel or Calc? In Oracle SQL Developer I tried saving the output as an XML file but it did not come out properly and I tried using EXPORT at the end of the statement but it gave an error message and I am not sure if this is the right command or what the syntax is. Thanks.

  • Parsing an OPEN SQL select statement

    Hi all,
      I want to parse an open SQL select statement to get the list of tables and the corresponding fields in the select statement.
      Is there some ABAP-internal syntax from the SAP Database Interface that does this? or is the only option to do this is to manually break the statement?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I doubt if there is something like that available to use. It think you will have to write a parser for yourself.

  • F-32 : Problem with Open Item selection

    Hi,
    We have a strange problem with open Item selection for customer clearing in t-code F-32
    In My QA system
    if I input spl GL indicator ="*" and uncheck Normal OI tick,
    the system selects all open items,
    (those with spl GL indicator and those without spl GL indicator)
    In My Dev system
    If I input spl GL indicator ="*" and uncheck Normal OI tick
    the system does not select any open items,
    Please let me know which setting controls this behaviour ?
    Regards
    Sachin

    Hello,
    Check your data in FBL5N for the option "Special GL Transactions". There could be that there is no data in the system with SPECIAL GL TRANSACTIONS.
    In F-32, there is no value like *
    You need to input right Special GL Indicator. "*" will not work here.
    I am sure in both the systems if you put "*" and UNTICK your normal transaction, you will NOT get any items to clear.
    Please DOUBLE CHECK whether you have unticked normal transaction.
    Regards,
    Ravi

  • Problems with PL/SQL packages

    Hello,
    I face the following problem with PL/SQL stored procedures. The Oracle
    version is 8.0.5 on Windows NT 4. The PL/SQL package has a set of procedures and functions.
    The main procedure of the PL/SQL package is triggered from VC++ executable. If for some reason,
    an exception is caught in the stored procedure (like no_data_found
    exception), then the following problem occurs.
    If we try to trigger the stored procedure again through the VC++ executable,
    the variables in the stored procedures have the values as in the previous
    execution. They are not getting initialised. (The same database connection
    is used in VC++ executable).
    Currently, only if a new connection to the database is used , the problem is
    solved.
    Also, change in the input parameters of the procedure is not reflected, once the procedure fails because of any exception. Only the input which was given during the time of execution when the procedure failed,is considered.
    What could be the reason for this problem and how can this be corrected?
    Please send in your suggestions.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Ramya Priya
    null

    Hi Keith,
    I am connecting to the database as the package owner..
    I have noticed earlier that I have problems when capturing triggers also.. The content of one large trigger contains 36371 characters and when capturing it from DB, the content was truncated to 28020 characters in Designer.
    Our ideas with capturing the DB packages/procedures were to use the Designer as version control system.
    We wanted to have all objects used in a project in Designer.. entities, tables, triggers, packages, procedures, Forms files, etc. in order to make a configuration for a project release.
    Thank you,
