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.

ok i have found a code in the forum:
DECLARE
app OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
docs OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
doc OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
selection OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
args OLE2.LIST_TYPE;
BEGIN
-- create a new document
app := OLE2.CREATE_OBJ('Word.Application');
OLE2.SET_PROPERTY(app,'Visible',1);
docs := OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Documents');
doc := OLE2.INVOKE_OBJ(docs, 'add');
selection := OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Selection');
-- insert data into new document from long item
OLE2.SET_PROPERTY(selection, 'Text', :long_item);
-- save document as example.doc
args := OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
OLE2.ADD_ARG(args, 'c:\temp\example.doc');
OLE2.INVOKE(doc, 'SaveAs', args);
OLE2.DESTROY_ARGLIST(args);

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?

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:

How can I read a blob created with ole container in forms 6i in forms 10g

In forms 6i I used ole container to save a document (excel, pdf, word...) into a blob column.
I want to migrate my application in forms 10g and I read that I have to use webutil_File_transfer.db_to_client and after webutil_host.blocking to see the document.
In the same blob column I can have multiple type of document. How Can I know wich application to use to open the document ?
Even if I know the extension of my document I'm enabled to open the file ???

When you click a C/S OLE object, it is opened with its default application's owner, no ?
So if the OLE object is opened by Excel, the extension is .xls.
In any case you have to open the OLE object with its "mother" application if you want to save it as a file, so there is no problem at all to decide with extension to use.
If you read this article : http://sheikyerbouti.developpez.com/webutil-docs/Webutil_store_edit_docs.htm you can see that the filename is automatically opened with the corresponding application.

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})

Problem with non-container managed entity manager

i am working on a project, in which i am using entity beans.i use netbeans, glassfish as application server and toplink as persistence provider .
i created a java class that handles all the operations with the entitys, which means i using non-container managed entity manager.
in the constructor
try{
            EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("voidPU");
            entityManager = emf.createEntityManager();
        catch(Exception ex){
            throw new EJBException(ex.getMessage());
        }then i call a function in this class from a servlet
the code of the function
List users = null;
        try {
            ProgLanguages progLanguage = entityManager.find(ProgLanguages.class, languageId);
            users = (List) progLanguage.getUserIdCollection();
        catch(IllegalStateException illegalStateException){
            throw new EJBException(illegalStateException.getMessage());
        catch(IllegalArgumentException illegalArgumentException) {
            throw new EJBException(illegalArgumentException.getMessage());
        }i got an IllegalArgumentException saying Unknown entity bean class: class vanguard.server.entity.ProgLanguages, please verify that this class has been marked with the @Entity annotation
what confuses me is that sometimes it works and most of the time it does not work, have i made anything wrong?, or there is a problem with any of the tools netbeans, glassfish, or toplink?

Is it always the same entity that is reported as 'unknown' ? You mention that it works sometimes but is it the same deployment and the same code that works? The first thing I would verify is that the ear is being created as expected by netbeans. Check the persistence.xml file and verify that all of the classes are listed that will be used as entities.

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

select * from table_name order by col1;Do you really want 70,000,000 rows from your table without any restrictions ? And furthermore ordered output ? I honestly understand the slowness of that query.
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.

Problem with same Container for 2 different outputs

Hi,
I am using method set_table_for_first_display to display 2 different output with same container depending upon the selection of radio button. but the problem I am facing is when I click BACK button after dispaying second output and executing first output, it is showing prebious output only. is there any method to handle this problem?
Regards,
Nilanjana

Hi,
On clicking back use leave to screen 0 in the PAI module of the screen.
Call screen 100.
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
Logic
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND.
MODULE USER_COMMAND INPUT.
IF sy-ucomm EQ 'User command defined for BACK button'.
LEAVE TO SCREEN 0. "Go back to selection screen
ENDIF.
END MODULE.
Have a look at the method FREE of class cl_gui_alv_grid.
eg:
CALL METHOD wcl_alvgrid1->free
EXCEPTIONS
    cntl_error        = 1
    cntl_system_error = 2
    OTHERS            = 3.

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?

Having problems with plugin-container.exe!

The Plugin-container.exe is causing firefox to crash after every page load. I have isolated it as the root cause because every time I terminate the process firefox starts working again.

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

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.

Problems with resizable container

Hi,
I have a resizable JPanel with cubes inside it.
The problem is when I resize the JPanel the cubes inside it gets resized only after I move the borders of the JPanel ~14 pixels...
The problem is in the X axis...
The Y axis "jumps" every ~5 pixels...
I need content of the JPanel also to resize every 1 pixel (so it would be on the borders of the JPanel)...
Any Ideas?

I guess that the only solution is NOT to use gridLayoutWell that would explain the behaviour. It would have been nice if that information was included in the original question. Thats why I always ask for a SSCCE, since you never no what information is importan or not.
All components in a GridLayout have the same size. So if you have a Grid with 10 component that is 400 pixels wide each component will be 40 pixels wide. As suggested above the size of each component will only be adjusted when you incread the width by 10 or more (since you have 10 components in each row).
Doing it manually would also be a pain. If you increase the width by 1 pixel you would only be able to increase the size of one component. Then if you increase it by one pixel again you can only change one component, so do you change the first one again or the second. So now you need an algorithm to determine which component gets the extra space.
I need content of the JPanel also to resize every 1 pixel (so it would be on the borders of the JPanel)...Don't know exactly what your layout is like, but maybe you could center the panel in the frame. That way as you change the size the "border" will change on both sides and it may not look as bad.
You can try using a BoxLayout. Components will grow as the size is increased but I think you might have problems with the first components always growing first.

Problem with formula in the query

HI ,
In cube I have 2 fileds EU date and US date .
For example :
In cube EU date =07/02/2008
US date = 23/02/2008
In the query we have a formula with these 2 fields
formula is DUE date = DATE ( ( 'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1 ) * 'Due date US' + ( 'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 2 ) * 'Due date EU' )
In the varaible screeen we have a '"Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1"
So if u enter 1 it takes EU date and display as due date if u enter 2 it take US date and display as due date.
Problem is :
When we give "'Enter 1 = US; 2 = EU - Asia' == 1"---this value 2
in the report in some cases we get due date as 02/07/2008 instead of 07/02/2008. This is not for all records only few we get like this . and for US due date this problem is not there.
Please suggest what might be the problem.

Hi,
Please check again the cell value because it may contain correct value but display may be different.
You can apply the common display property fot the whole column using the workbook properties and saving the workbook.
Regards,
Anil
