Properties of column values in a query

Hi all,
I am interested in knowing, how can we remove the rounding off of a value to its nearest integer, for a selection.
Let me be more clear. I use a variable for alternate unit of measure. When I use some higher unit, then my value is getting rounded off to its nearest integer, rather than showing in the decimals. I have defined 2 decimal places for that selection.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,
Are you sure that in your data provider you have figures not rounding?
Have you check the units in SPRO?
Best regards,
Eugene

How to accessing current row report column value in Lov Query?

Hi,
which access methods (eg. bind variables, substitutions, ...) for getting the current row report column value can be used in the "Lov Query" property of a report column?
As what I know of and what I have read on the forum there are no bind variables for the report columns. For the "Link Text" property it seems that the column values exist as substitution strings (#COLUMN_NAME#). But they don't work in the Lov Query. => And would be good because of a hard parse each time the Lov query is executed.
The following post (Re: Simulating a correlated sub query in lov
is showing a solution to use package variables for temporary storage of the referenced value, but the only problem with that solution is that if a new record is added with the "Add rows to tabular form" process the package variable still contains the value from the last queried row! Is there a way (variable, APEX package, ...) to determine if the lov query is executed for a new record so that the package can return null?
I know that I could write the package in a way that the value is immediately cleared when lov_pkg.keyval is called (one time read), but then I would have to create several variables if I'm accessing the value multiple times in the query or in another query => I think an one time read solution would be very obscurely.
Thanks for your help

Hi Patrick,
I agree that it's a waste to continually use Ajax to go back to the server to get the contents of a dynamic select list.
There are no bind variables for any row item - but what you do have, as per my previous post, is the value of the data entered by the user in the first row. You can pass this into your application process (using get.add("VARIABLENAME", value)), which can use it to retrieve the correct LOV in your Ajax code - this will give you a "bind variable" that your process can use.
What you could do, however, is generate hidden select lists on your page - one for each possible LOV list and replace the contents of the new row's select list with the contents of the appropriate hidden select list. This is easy to do with javascript (using innerHTML functions). Obviously, though, the usefulness of this depends on the number and size of the select lists.
Even if you don't generate them to start with, you can keep a copy of any select lists returned by Ajax in the DOM for use on new rows. So, if you have retrieved a select list, you will have a copy of it in DOM which you can then copy into the new row. If you don't have the list in DOM, use Ajax to get it, store a copy of it and copy it into the new row.
Which method you use will depend on the number/size of select lists needed. If they are few in number and/or size, I would suggest generating hidden lists. If they are large, use Ajax to get them once, store them and then retrieve them from the DOM when needed.
There is another thread here where Arie recommends going to the server every time to make sure you get the most up-to-date data for the lists. If you want to follow this advice, for this reason, use get.add("VARIABLENAME", value) to pass the value to your process. If this is not an issue, you can use one of the other methods I outlined above.

Hi Sam,
it looks like you can use your current view based agregation, otherwise it is not possible(
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms467521.aspx) and you need to work on custom bit on this requirement.
use the below link and create a view element as described and see if that works for you

Oracle report problem-Passing a column value from a query block to another

Hi I am facing a problem in oracle reports.
I have 3 query blocks say Q1,Q2 and Q3.
From Q1 I get a tblkey coulmn and for each value of tblkey I need to pass it on to Q2 which gives me a status and now finally Q3 will take tblkey and status to give me final output.
Can somebody please tell me how I can do it?
Thanks,
Avin

Depending on your report requirement, you may do a join of Q1, Q2, and Q3; or keep all Qs and for Q3 use subqueries ...
Select ... from ... where tblkey, status in (
select tblkey, status from ... where tblkey in (
select tblkey from .... where .... ) )
Good luck.

How to prevent editing a SharePoint site column value from document properties view of a downloaded document?

Hi,
We have created a SharePoint site column with below settings
1. ShowInEditForm - False
2. ShowInNewForm - False
3. ShowInDisplayForm - True
With the above definition, the site column showing only in view properties form not in New and Edit forms. This column is added to a document library and updating this column value will be managed by event receiver code when a document is uploaded.
Till this point, everything is working OK.
But the issue is when we download and open a document from the above document library, under document properties the above column (with value) is visible along with other document default properties and this column value is editable. With this issue,
user is able to set a new value and overwrite the existing value by re-uploading the document.
Could you please let me know how to handle this issue so that user should not be allowed to edit except viewing the value/property (read only)?
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ramesh

You can set "ShowInFileDlg" property of field to "FALSE". Using this you will not see that field in document properties list

Changing Column Value Style using SQL Query

Hi,
I'm trying to build a fantasy basketball game with APEX. I have a table that has a list of games. I need to change the color of the column value i.e. the name of the team that wins according to a SQL query Here's an example:
TABLE NAME: LATESTGAMES
Home Away Homepoints Awaypoints
Boston Cleveland 105 101
Toronto Washington 122 83
What I want to do is display the winning team i.e. Boston and Toronto in Green since that's the team that won.
The SQL query is:
SELECT HOME,
AWAY,
HOMEPOINTS,
AWAYPOINTS
from LATESTGAMES;
What do I need to do in order to display the Winning Team as Green on every column? Please Help

Hello Devilfish,
I did something like that in my DG Tournament application (http://www.dgtournament.com)
Your SQL query can look like this:
SELECT CASE
          WHEN (homepoints > awaypoints)
             THEN '<span style="color:green;">' || home || '</span>'
          ELSE home
       END AS home,
SELECT CASE
          WHEN (awaypoints > homepoints)
             THEN '<span style="color:green;">' || away|| '</span>'
          ELSE away
       END AS away,
HOMEPOINTS,
AWAYPOINTS
from LATESTGAMES;Hope that gives you an idea,
Dimitri

Tabular form query using column values delimiter

I wanted to know, if i can query a tabular block by entering the column values (primary key) as semicolon delimited and update required fields. Please let me know.
Requirement:-
User will enter 5 values as "AB1; AB2; AB3; AB4; AB5"
After entering I need to write a plsql code to query the tabular form as follows
PrimaryCol SecCol
AB1 IN
AB2 IN
AB3 OUT
AB4 IN
AB5 ON
Then I will update the columns accordingly.
Please help me.

You could put something like this in the WHERE-clause (assuming that :BLOCK.QUERYDATA contains your value AB1;AB2;AB3;AB4; )
INSTR (';' || PK_COLUMN || ';', ';' || :BLOCK.QUERYDATA || ';')>0Maybe you have to additionally eliminate space in :BLOCK.QUERYDATA

Weird ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated error for SELECT query

DB version:10gR2
When one of our application fires the below query, we get
ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncatederror.
select     trk_dtl,
     trk_type,
     trk_id,

from     shp_dtl
where     shp_type = 'HN'
and     shp_type = 828;The documentation says
Cause:In a host language program, a FETCH operation was forced to truncate a character string. The program buffer area for this column was not large enough to contain the entire string. The cursor return code from the fetch was +3.But when the application is pointed to an identical schema in the same instance, we don't get this error. So, this has got nothing to do client application as the documentation says.
Any idea what other possibilities are there?

In my schema i have 500+ tables and other objects.
i have a column with the name BO_PRODUCT_CODE.
I wants to know in what tables the value of BO_PRODUCT_CODE='FX03'.
i have query the user_tab_columns which gives me the result with 90 tables having the column BO_PRODUCT_CODE.
What is query which will give me the exact number/name of the table whose column value is FX03. ie, BO_PRODUCT_CODE='FX03'.

Hi you can use this approach:

Content Search Query Builder - filtering for custom column value

I want to use a CSWP to display certain pages in a slideshow format on a site. However, to filter them in a preferred manner, the pages library has a custom column "Spotlight" which is a Boolean type (e.g. yes/no).
In my "Build Your Query" configuration page, I have added a keyword filter "SpotlightOWSBOOL=Yes" as the criteria to display my results. This is not working, despite the fact that I currently have pages flagged as "Spotlight"
in this library.
My question is - how can I achieve this result of displaying only pages with a custom column value "Spotlight" as "Yes"?

Hi Owen,
Could you capture a screenshot about your Crawled Property for your list column "Spotlight"? Is it name "SpotlightOWSBOOL"?
If your library column name is "Spotlight", you can create a custom
Manged Property (e.g. create name as SpotlightMangedProperty)to map the
Crawled Propery (e.g. may ows_spotlight, or ows_SpotlightOWSBOOL?) genegrated by list column "Spotlight", then start a full crawl.
Then you can add the keyword filter like below in "Build Your Query" dialog of CSWP web part, then check if the correct items are filtered.
SpotlightMangedProperty:"yes"
If the above value "yes" doesn't work, please also try
SpotlightMangedProperty:"True", or try SpotlightMangedProperty:1

LOV SQL query dependent on column value

Hi Gurus,
I have a tabular form, a column of which I would like to display as a dropdown whose list of values is a SQL query containing a where clause on another column value.
For example, say the tabular form displays questions, and that the answers to the different questions are to be picked in list of values that are different for each question. I have tried the following queries for the dropdown list of values:
1- select value_text, value_text from list_of_values_table where question_id=#QUESTION_ID#
2- select value_text, value_text from list_of_values_table where question_id=:QUESTION_ID
3- select value_text, value_text from list_of_values_table where question_id=&QUESTION_ID.
In the 3 cases, I get an error when I run the application saying that the SQL statement is incorrect.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Guillauem

Anton,
Yes, I am creating a region based on a sql query. The query is the following:
select q.id quest_id, q.name, q.data_type_id, q.lov_flag, a.id answer_id, a.answer_text, a.org_id
from gwb_questions q left join gwb_answers a on q.id=a.question_id, gwb_answers ans right join gwb_orgs o on ans.org_id=o.id
where q.MODULE_ID=:P2_MODULE_ID and o.id=:P2_ORG_ID
Now, in the 'answer_text' column, I would like to display a dropdown containing values that come from a separate table and that depend on the value of the quest_id column. So in the Column Attributes for 'answer_text', I selected Select List (query based LOV) for the Tabular Form Element, and I entered the query mentioned before in the List of Values section (select value_text, value_text from list_of_values_table lov where lov.question_id= ?).
I am not using any API.
Does that make sense?
Thanks for your help,
Guillaume

Query to delete row where column value contains alphabets

Filter TOP query so that a result cannot be in the top if the column value is already present in a previous row

Hi,
Any help would be appreciated. I have a query that is the top(5) but I want them to be distinct on only one column value, not on the entire row. Any help would be really appreciated.
Regards,
Seamus

SELECT TOP 5 [DISTINCT COLUMN], MAX([SOME OTHER COLUMN]), MAX([SOME OTHER COLUMN], MAX([SOME OTHER COLUMN])
FROM [TABLE]
GROUP BY [DISTINCT COLUMN]
This will do it, but the values may display incorrectly, since it's taking the MAX value of each partition of your distinct column, so another way would be:
;WITH CTE AS(
SELECT *, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY [DISTINCT COLUMN] ORDER BY NEWID()) AS RN
FROM [TABLE])
SELECT TOP 5 [DISTINCT COLUMN], [OTHER COLUMN], [OTHER COLUMN]
FROM CTE
WHERE RN = 1
Thanks.
