Query Column Header when executing directly to spreadsheet

Hello,
I've created an ABAP query and added the fields of currency and unit of measure next to the price and quantity.
When I excute the query directly to a spreadsheet, the headers of the currency and unit of measure columns have the same description as the price and quantity headers. The headers come incorrectly only when executing to spreadsheet. When I execute to ALV, the headers come out correctly.
For example
Quantity Quantity Amount Amount
1.000 EA 250.09 USD
Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Wrap report column header when using heading type : Column Names

The headers for my report is actual data from the database. In order to get it to work I'm using aliases on my columns that correspond to the header name that I want. However, I have been unable to get the headers to wrap. I have tried using <br> and chr(10) but it seems to be stripping them out since it's a column alias. Any ideas? Region source is listed below...r1.fc_desc is the column header that I need to have wrapped.
declare
v_sql varchar2(4000);
v_sql2 varchar2(4000);
cursor c1 is select distinct fc_code, fc_desc from
[email protected] where FG_ID=v('G_FINANCIAL_GROUP') order by fc_desc;
begin
for r1 in c1 loop
if v_sql is null then
v_sql:='select to_char(trans_week_end_thur,''mm/dd/yyyy'') as "Week Ending",sum(decode(fc_code,'''||r1.fc_code||''',payments,0)) as "'||r1.fc_desc||'"';
v_sql2:='select ''Average:'' as "WeekEnding", avg(sum(decode(fc_code,'''||r1.fc_code||''',payments,0))) as "'||r1.fc_desc||'"';
else v_sql:=v_sql||' ,sum(decode(fc_code,'''||r1.fc_code||''',payments,0)) as "'||r1.fc_desc||'"';
v_sql2:=v_sql2||' ,avg(sum(decode(fc_code,'''||r1.fc_code||''',payments,0))) as "'||r1.fc_desc||'"';
end if;
end loop;
if v_sql is null then
v_sql := 'select ''No records found for weekly analysis by insurance class for this financial group '' as " " from dual;';
else
v_sql:= v_sql||' from [email protected] where fg_id=:G_FINANCIAL_GROUP group by trans_week_end_thur';
v_sql2:=v_sql2||' from [email protected] where fg_id=:G_FINANCIAL_GROUP group by trans_week_end_thur;';
v_sql:=v_sql||' union '||v_sql2;
end if;
return v_sql;
end;

I've resorted to creating a separate function to return a colon-separated list of column names, in which you can include a br tag or whatever, until I get a chance to research this more thoroughly.
I thought it would just be a case of asking APEX not to strip the HTML, but it's clearly not as simple as that.

John.

Change Case in Column header when designing reports in BIDS

Hi
I have used a key short-cut to change the case of headers when adding them to the header of a Tablix, but I can't remember the key combination,
Any help much appretiated
Regards
Andy
CRM 4, SQL Server and .Net developer using C#

Hi Andy,
If I understand correctly, you want to know the shortcut key combination to switch the case of words in column headers of a tablix in Reporting Services Report Designer. As far as I know, there is no such key combination. In Microsoft Word/Outlook/PowerPoint,
we can use the Shift + F3 to change case of words. However, this doesn’t work in SSRS Report Designer.
To change the case of the words in column headers, you can either copy the text to Word and perform the case change there or use built-in functions such as LCase, Ucase, or StrConv to perform the case change by using expression. Here are the examples for
the three functions:
Expression: =LCase(“Sales territory country”)                           Result: sales territory country
Expression: =UCase(“Sales territory country”)                           Result: SALES TERRITORY COUNTRY
Expression: =StrConv(“Sales territory country”, vbProperCase)   Result: Sales Territory Country

Invalid column name when executing explain plan

SQL Developer version 4.0, SQL Worksheet, Windows 2000, Database 9.2.0.6.
When attempted to run a explain plan on a simple two table join query, it generates error invalid column name. Removed aliases and simplify query to one table row count, and still get the same error. Even tried the schema owner and got the same error.
I decided to check the explain plan table and found out that it was from an older version. Recreated the explain plan table and was able to run the explain plan.
I'm just posting this in the event somebody else runs into the same problem.

Repeat or merge column header when 2 headers in webform

Dear experts,
the example below shows a few lines from a webform script.
As you can see the first 2 lines create 2 headers: 1 for account and 1 for custom1 dimension.
This automatically generates 2 column headers in the webform, which is as expected.
C1=A#Gw_Tech.C1#OPE
C2=A#ImpGw.C1#OPE
C3=SCalc(Col(1)+Col(2)),NumDecimals:0,CustomHeader:Net
However, the 3rd line shows a manual calculated header called Net.
Question: can I merge the 2 column headers in the 3rd column so that it does not show me 1 "net" header and 1 empty header?
Looking forward to your comments and hopefully your solution!
KR,
Jerome

User defined column heading

Hello Every1,
The following is a peice of code produces a report. At the moment the heading of the column is GBCCCL15/16_CSAHEPA because it has been hard coded that way. However what i would like instead, is the heading of the column to be what ever the user selects. What i mean by this is, what ever the user chooses to search in the text fields will then be displayed as the column heading when the report is exicuted.
select schema_name,
max(GBCCCL1516_CSAHEPA) as "GBCCCL15/16_CSAHEPA"
from
     select     schema_name, created_time,
     case when
          server_name||'_'||db_name='GBCCCL15/16_CSAHEPA'
          then DB_PATCH_NUMBER||'v'||VERSION_NUMBER else null end GBCCCL1516_CSAHEPA
from      version_control
group by schema_name
order by SCHEMA_NAME
Does anyone know how to get this done?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Headings can be created dynamically. Change the headings type to PL/SQL. You then see a "Function returning colon delimited headings" setting - enter in something like:
DECLARE
v_headings VARCHAR2(2000);
BEGIN
v_headings := '';
SELECT USER_HEADING INTO v_HEADINGS FROM TABLEX;
RETURN v_headings;
END;The string returned must be a colon-delimited string with one value for each column. eg:
COL1:COL2:COL3Andy

Then after checking some forum, i replaced "contains" with "ora:contains" and executed the query. Now im not getting the first error but got a new error "invalid relational operator"
So please help me in resolving the errors?
Thanks in advance.

Query can't include an "ORDER BY" clause when having column heading sorting

I'm getting the following error when I try to include "ORDER BY" in my sql statement :
"Your query can't include an "ORDER BY" clause when having column heading sorting enabled"
I have used other sql statements with "ORDER BY" but this is the first time I have come across this and I don't understand why it's going wrong. Does anyone have a suggestion as to how I could fix it? Here is one of the sql statements which I have tried which is giving me the error:
select "ID_NUMBER",
"PROJECT_NAME",
"PROJECT_TYPE",
"OWNER",
"PRIORITY",
"STATUS",
"END_DATE",
"COMMENTS"
from "PROJECT"
WHERE "STATUS" != 'Completed' AND "STATUS" != 'Cancelled'
ORDER BY "END_DATE"
Regards,
Ed.

You must deselect column heading sorting that is in the page "Report Attributes" .This is a check box placed on the same line of the element of the report.

Times ten not showing the column alias as column header in select query.

ROWNUMBER,

< 3, 8h 54m 13s >
< 4, 8h 55m 6s >
< 5, 8h 54m 40s >
The issue is I should get TIME_DIFFERENCE as column header but it is not showing TIME_DIFFERENCE as the column header & it is calculating the value just fine .
& if same query I execute on oracle 11g database every thing works fine.
please suggest me something that column header is must.
or suggest me any other for query

Hi,
It is similar to bug which is raised in Timesten 11.2.2.2.. BUG 13896607 - COLUMN NAME MISSING FROM A VIEW IN TIMESTEN 11.2.2.2 . If you have MOS access then you can view about this bug. The bug is going to be fix in the future release. The bug basically indicates that we are not displaying the column name properly when select list contains complex expressions. The column itself can be accessed and values are displayed correctly.
Regarding your issue "column TIME_DIFFERENCE not found" , I would suggest you to access the column by position, not by name like below
I believe you are trying to access your column like below
resultset.getString(“TIME_DIFFERENCE”)
Instead of this you can use : -- resultset.getString(2) ( this position should based on the position of the column you are using in the query)
Hope this helps.

How to sort data in descending order when user clicks on the column heading

Hi
I have a report called "Top customers", which shows the top customers for a specific product line. It displays the customer name and one column with the total amount spent in the period for each product line. By default, the leftmost product line is sorted in descending order.
If the user wants to know who are the top customers for another product line, they simply click on the column heading to sort the list by that column.
The problem is that when you click for the first time on a sortable column heading, Apex sorts it in ascending order; you need to click on the same column heading again to sort in descending order.
Is it possible to change this behaviour and sort the data in descending order in the first click? So the users don't have to click twice...
Thanks
Luis
PS: Apex 3 running on Oracle 10.2.0

Luis,
See: Can I "catch" a click on a sortable column header of a report?
Take a look at Anton Nielsen's answer with regards to hiding a column and displaying its value instead of the sortable column.
Asumming the following simple report query:
select product,sales
from <table>
Change that into:
select product
,sales*-1 as reverse_sales -- Select this one as an extra column
,sales -- Hide this column
from <table>
In your report column attributes (of column reverse_sales), html-expression, type #sales#. It then displays the normal sales. However apex will generate a 'order by 2 asc' for the first time. The '2' will refer to the sales*-1 value: sorting it asc, is the same as sorting sales descending...

How can i know which index will be used when executing the query ?

1 ) I have query in which i have 3-4 tables but there multiple index on one column .
so how can i know which index will be used when executing the query ?
2) I have a query which ia taking too much time . how can i know which table is taking too much time ?
3) Please Provide me some document of EXplain plan ?

Hi Jimmy,
Consider the below example
/* Formatted on 2011/02/04 21:59 (Formatter Plus v4.8.8) */
CREATE TABLE FIRST AS
SELECT * FROM all_objects;
UPDATE FIRST
SET object_name = 'TEST'
WHERE owner != 'SCOTT';
CREATE INDEX idx_first ON FIRST(object_name);
SELECT *
FROM FIRST
WHERE object_name = 'TEST';
It has not used index
Execution Plan
Plan hash value: 2265626682
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 58678 | 7334K| 163 (4)| 00:00:02 |
|* 1 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| FIRST | 58678 | 7334K| 163 (4)| 00:00:02 |
/* Formatted on 2011/02/04 21:59 (Formatter Plus v4.8.8) */
SELECT *
FROM FIRST
WHERE object_name = 'emp';
This has used the index
Execution Plan
Plan hash value: 1184810458
| Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time |
| 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 1 | 128 | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
| 1 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| FIRST | 1 | 128 | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
|* 2 | INDEX RANGE SCAN | IDX_FIRST | 1 | | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 |
From this we can come to the conclusion that, whether to use one index or not by oracle
would also depend on the data which is present in the table. This has to be this way as
we see in the bind peeking, if oracle sticks to only one plan, say only use the full table
scan, it would be a performance hit when it searches for the second query ie where object_name
='emp';
2.
If we have a query like below.
select * from emp
where upper(ename) = upper(:p_ename);
Evenif we have the index on ename column, oracle wouldn't be able to use the index, as there is a function in the predicate column. If you need oracle to use the index, we need to create a function based index as below.
Create index idx_ename on emp(upper(ename));

Cool
