Query for deleting rows older than 25?

Am trying to delete rows older than 25... How would the query for this be like? I tried this "DELETE FROM DB LIMIT 25,100" But getting errors...

what is older than 25? Does it mean with id greater then 25?
then you should have a query like
DELETE FROM tableName WHERE id > 25

Delete rows older than given number of hours

Hi,
I have a table student which contains the following columns
ID Number(5)
Name varchar2(20)
Strt_Time timestamp(6)
Strt_time is the timestamp when the particular row is inserted in the table.
I need a query to delete all the rows inserted before given particular number of hours.
For Example. If i pass the input paramter as 2 all the rows inserted before 2 hours from now should get deleted.

Hi,
Here's one way:
DELETE student
WHERE strt_time < SYSTIMESTAMP - INTERVAL '2' HOUR
;Or, if you're getting a NUMBER parameter like :num_hours, then
DELETE student
WHERE strt_time < SYSTIMESTAMP - NUMTODSINTERVAL (:num_hours, 'HOUR')
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only), and the results you want from that data.
In the case of a DML operation (such as DELETE) the sample data should show what the tables are like before the DML, and the results will be the contents of the changed table after the DML.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
If your results depend on the current time and/or parammeters, then give a couple of different examples using the same sample data. For example "If I run this at 11:00 on January 3, 2013, with :num_hours=12, then the table should be left with ... but if I run it at 13:00 on January 3, 2013, with :num_hours= 24, then I should get ..."
Always say what version of Oracle you're using (e.g. 11.2.0.2.0).

Delete messages older than a date except personal folder

Hello everyone,
I have been spending a lot of time searching and testing how to delete all items older than 6 months in a user mailbox, but this rule it cannot be applied just one personal folder named "personal". I have been reading about retention policy and
retention policy tags, but I can't figure out how to use that to keep all items older than 6 month in personal folder.
could anyone tell me if I am right with retention policy or it's better other way?
thank you in advice

Hi,
In Outlook client, we can set AutoArchive for all folders to delete all items older than 6 months except for “Personal” folder one by one.
If you want to use retention policy in Exchange side, we can use retention tags and retention policies to have a try. there are three types of retention tags:
Default policy tag (DPT), Retention policy tag (RPT), Personal tag.
For your scenario, we can create a personal tag applied for this Personal folder. For example,
delete messages older than 3 years for this personal folder. Then apply this personal tag for Personal folder in Outlook. And the Personal folder items are all tagged. After that, we can
applying default policy tags (DPTs) to mailboxes to manage the retention of all untagged items.
Personal suggestion, since the delete action is only used for one specific mailbox, I suggest we can use AutoArchive in Outlook side to achieve it.

Hi Winnie Liang,
Thank you for answer. I would like to do all tasks from exchange side, so I know how to apply a retention policy to a mailbox for deleting all older than 6 months. But how can I apply the personal policy tag to a personal folder's users?
All involved users in this requirement are warned that they must let all personal messages in "personal" folder named "personal".

HT3275 I've 1.85TB empty space on my time Machine, but it only backs up to the beginning of the previous month. it should have weekly back-ups for every month before that. Any ideas why it deletes stuff older than a month?

I've 1.85TB empty space on my Time Machine, but it only retains back-ups to the beginning of the previous month. I should be able to access weekly back-ups for every month before that until the disk is full. Any ideas why it deletes stuff older than a month?
Thanks, Rigby.

If you are using Ethernet to connect your Mac to the Time Capsule, are you allowing at least 2-3 minutes for Time Machine to fully load when you open the application to see your backups?
If you are using wireless to connect, you may need to allow 8-10 minutes or longer for everything to fully load, depending on the speed of your wireless connection.
If you see only white time "bars" on the timeline at the right of the screen, you are seeing temporary backups. Permanent backups are displayed with purple "bars".

Return Code - Query for Multiple Rows as XML

Hi,
I'm executing an MSSQL stored procedure through the "Query for Multiple Rows as XML" activity in LiveCycle ES. I do this through a call statement such as this:
{ call MyStoredProc(?) }
This works great, the stored procedure always returns a record set (with or without records). I use this activity rather than "Call Stored Procedure" because I can transform the record set into XML right away within this activity. Unfortunately any exception arising from invoking this stored procedure cannot be handled within the workflow as this activity does not have an exception handler (lightning bolt). In an attempt to handle at least some exceptions we have decided to use try/catches within the stored procedures and return different error codes. Now the problem I am faced with is that there is no way to retrieve the returned code within any of the SQL activities. We don't want to have to write an execute script for each of these SQL calls. Is there any way to do this? Seems like I'm 95% there.
Thanks
Nic

Thanks for the offer, unfortunately we would need something certified by Adobe.

How to delete data older than three years from DSO

Hi all,
We needs to keep historical data in the DSO only for three years. One way of doing this is by selective deletion we can delete data older than three years but we want to make it authomated. Is it possible to add a process or ABAP program to delete data older than three years.
If it is p[ossible by ABAP code then can you please give me sample code.
Many Thanks in advance.
Harman

Some time for in case of huge volume of data selective deletion is not works, Try for "prunning" option.
It's work as follows
1)     Create DSO which is same replica of your Source DSO.
2)     Create two transformation
     a) from Source DSO to Copy DSO
     b) Another is from Copy DSO to Source DSO
3)     Transprort Last 3 years records to Copy of Source DSO using DTP Filter range for time.
4)     Once data loading from Source DSO to Copy DSO get completed delete all data from Source DSO.
5)     Now load data from Copy DSO to Source DSO.
6)     After complete loading delete entire data from Source DSO.
I use prunning process to one of my client and it's work perfectly.

Thanks for your suggestion....
I am using the trigger for populating the data in USER_RECENT_PROJECTS.This
trigger is fired when data is INSERTED or UPDATED in PROJECT table.And that trigger will call the procedure PROC_USER_RECENT_PRJ.This is used
to put data in USER_RECENT_PROJECTS table.I am getting the problem in procedure the problem is upto five records it is inserting the record when i go for insert sixth record it should delete least UPDATED_ON and insert new record.But it is deleting the record from other user that i don't want.I want to delete the record from the paarticular user.I am using this query for deleting the record..
               DELETE FROM USER_RECENT_PROJECTS WHERE USER_RECENT_PROJECTS.PROJECT_ID=(
     SELECT PROJECT_ID FROM USER_RECENT_PROJECTS
                    WHERE UPDATED_ON=(SELECT MIN(UPDATED_ON) FROM USER_RECENT_PROJECTS WHERE USER_RECENT_PROJECTS.USER_NAME=USER_NAME)
                         AND USER_RECENT_PROJECTS.USER_NAME=USER_NAME
               ) AND USER_RECENT_PROJECTS.USER_NAME=USER_NAME;
when i fire this query individually it is deleting the proper record,but when i use it
inside procedure it is creating the problem it is deleting the record from other user.
Please suggest me other query for deletion.
Thanks in advance.......

[Excel] Running a SQL Query to delete rows

Hello Experts,
Background: I am attempting to use a dba of my companies time keeping system and implement it with Power BI tools. Given the file size restrictions within Power Bi itself I need to lower my file size by removing all time logs from
inactive employees.
I have a question regarding whether or not you can use a sql query to delete rows in excel. I have roughly 200,000+ rows in my excel spreadsheet. I am attempting to delete all rows where an employee equals inactive. I have attempted to
delete these rows by sorting them and doing a bulk delete and clear contents, but it seems to crash my excel every time. My thought process is that using a query that does a timed delete might put less of a burden on deleting the massive amount of data.
I would like to use this: DELETE * FROM [Table_(...)_Actual$] WHERE [Current] = "Inactive" (Will add more once I know it is possible to use sql queries in Excel.
Any information on whether or not this is possible would be appreciated.
Regards,
Link

Running SQL Query in Excel is possible, however, the delete query is not supported in Excel.
You are more restricted in deleting Excel data than data from a relational data source. In a relational database, "row" has no meaning or existence apart from "record"; in an Excel worksheet, this is not true. You can delete values
in fields (cells). Please see:http://support.microsoft.com/kb/257819/en-us
One workaround : Use update query to set the rows as null, then use select query.
e.g.
SQL = "update [sheet2$A1:B5] set name=null,age=null where name='andy'"
cnn.Execute SQL
SQL = "select name,age from [sheet2$A1:B5] where name is not null"

Outlook 2013 Deletes mail older than 30 days in deleted items folder

Environment: Outlook 2013 and Exchange 2007 (fully patched)
One user has an issue where only 30 days worth of email is maintained in the deleted items folder. Every day, any email sent to deleted the previous day, will be gone.
Any thoughts?

Hi,
Outlook itself doesn't auto-delete anything. It could be something that's automatically being done by the server.
Let's first check the behavior on Outlook Web App (OWA), and see if issue persists.
If issue repro's on OWA, then it's something on Exchange server side, I would suggest you post the question in
Exchange server forum for further assistance.
If issue doesn't repro on OWA side, it might be something on Outlook client side that deletes emails from the trash. For this scenario, I would suggest you first check if he/she has
AutoArchive configured for the deleted folder which might delete messages older than a certain period of time.
Please feel free to post back with any findings.

[Oracle 8i] Query for N rows by column value?

I was just wondering if what I want to do is possible within my query (rather than programmatically)...
I want to return the N most recent records for each unique value in a particular column.
Here's a sample table:
CREATE TABLE     orders
(     order_no     numeric(10)
     part_no          varchar(5)
     close_date     date
     order_qty     numeric(10)
     scrap_qty     numeric(10)
     CONSTRAINT order_pk PRIMARY KEY (order_no)
);And some sample data....
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000012345,'ABC-1',TO_DATE('01-01-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),10,1);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000013498,'ABC-1',TO_DATE('01-05-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),12,2);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000033452,'ABC-1',TO_DATE('01-10-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),5,0);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000001468,'ABC-1',TO_DATE('01-15-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),15,1);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000022349,'BR723',TO_DATE('01-03-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),8,1);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000069581,'BR723',TO_DATE('01-05-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),5,0);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000436721,'BR723',TO_DATE('01-10-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),14,1);
INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES

INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES

INSERT INTO     orders     VALUES
(0000011241,'A5001',TO_DATE('01-15-2010','mm-dd-yyyy'),5,1);In this example, what I want to return are the 2 most recent orders (by close_date) for each part number.

0000041353     'A5001'          '01-14-2010'     12          1Is it possible to write a query to get these results, or am I going to have to query for all available data, and find the 2 most recent rows programmatically?

Hi,
user11033437 wrote:
I'm going to test that out right now. I think if it works, I may need to use dense_rank() rather than rank(), because it is possible that two orders for the same part number could have the same close date, and according to what I've looked up on the rank() and dense_rank() functions, rank() can give non-consecutive results if the values are the same.What's wrong with non-consecutive values?
Use RANK, DENSE_RANK or ROW_NUMBER depending on what you want.
For example; say a certain part has been ordered 8 times:
3 times with close_date January 29, 2010 (all at exactly the same time),
4 times with close_date January 28, 2010 (all at exactly the same time), and
1 time with close_date January 27, 2010.
If you ask for the last 2 rows:
RANK will give you the 3 rows from January 29. (All 3 have an equal claim to being in the top 2.)
DENSE_RANK will give you the 7 rows from January 28-29 (the last two values , regardless of how many rows have them).
ROW_NUMBER will give you 2 rows from January 29. (Which 2? It's arbitrary unless you add a tie-breaker to the ORDER BY clause.)
All these functions are available in Oracle 8.1.

Searching for calendar items older than a specific date with search-mailbox and AQS

I need to find the total size of all calendar items in a mailbox older than a specified date using PowerShell through the search-mailbox cmdlet's searchquery parameter. My problem is that I cannot find a complete list of Calendar item properties to
use in search queries. The AQS page doesn't have a complete list of properties for a Calendar object.
I'm using code from the ArchiveStatisticsPlanner.ps1 script as a base and the only date properties I know of are the sent and receive properties (see below.) The basic start, end, date properties generate errors in the query. How can I find all
Calendar items older than say, 1/1/2013?
Sample:
$MBXSearch=Search-Mailbox-Identity$MBX-SearchQuery"kind:calendar
sent:<=$QueryDate OR kind:calendar received:<=$QueryDate"-EstimateResultOnly-DoNotIncludeArchive
