How to change the default sql servery query name?

Whenever we click on new query button, Sql server automatically opens a new query with default name SQLQuery1.sql.
Can I change this default name? What I mean to say is I have to work with quite a number of databases on different servers. So I open multiple queries on different server. So I was finding a way where whenever I click on
New Query button it inherits servername or database name (e.g If I have database name like ABCD new query name should look like ABCDquery.sql ?)
So that I can distinguish which query belong to which Database?
I would be very greateful if you can please answer this.
Many thanks

Please try with different color code option for your servers:
Ref: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh213617.aspx
Set the Status Color for a Server in Object Explorer
To set a server status color in Object Explorer
In Object Explorer, select the Connect button and then select Database
Engine….
On the Connect to Server dialog, select Options >>.
Select the Use custom color check box.
To select the color, select the Select… button.
Select either a basic or custom color, then select OK.
Fill in the rest of the connection information, and then select the Connect button.
Note: This is to identify different server connected not for databases.

Dynamic change in the query name based on user input

Hi Gurus,
In a scenario, country appears as a user input variable.When the user specifies his country, the same query displays <b>Business trends</b>' data pertaining to his own country and rest of the world(international) in two tables.The reports are developed using Web application designer.
Can the name(description) of the query be changed so that the user input value for country gets dynamically reflected in the query name like <b>Business trends:Selected country vs International</b>?
Regards,
Balaji

Hi Bala,
ya this can be done by text variables. create a text variable( replacement path on the country infoobject) by going to the query properties on the description.
if the user enters country value then it will be displaed on the description of the query .
assign points if useful .

External hard drive accidnetal name changed query

Soem time ago I noticed my permenently plugged in ext. HD name had changed. It was called something like 'Photos and Video', it's now called '**'. As in two stars. Maybe the cat walked over the keybord, it certainly wasn't an intentional change. That was a couple of months ago and all still works fine, haven't had a problem accessing my iPhoto libraries stored on there. My imovie projects are a bit dodgy though - the video clips are all stored on ext. drive). I can still kind of access them, but if I play a project I only hear the sound, unless I go to full screen and then I can see visuals as well. So looks like I've lost the ability to edit any projects created before the name change, (I have about 25 projects). I've only done one iMovie project since the name change, and won't need that any more.
But it's time to do a backup of the ExHD, and I use SuperDuper which does incremental back ups. Of course now the drive has a different name I don't think it will be able to do an incremental back up, will probably have to start afresh and do a completely new back up.
So, my questions are:
Should I change the name of the ext. drive to what it used to be (I think I can remember the name)? Then I think I will be able to do the incremental back up.
Will this then sort out the iMovie problem?
Or, will this throw up other problems, ie. I've been putting photos into iPhoto libraries on the HD whilst it's had it's new name and don't want to lose any of those.
Anyone who can throw a light on this I would be grateful.
Cheers!

Definitely change the name. The asterisk is actually a wild card character, so it isn't a good idea to leave them there. There shouldn't be any problems with changing the name.

How to find a query name from report name

I have a report in my system with the name AQICMM==========P2============ . I believe this was created from a query. How to find the query corresponding to this report ? I need to change the logic for certain columns of the report. How to know if this was created from SQVI or SQ01 or any other transaction.
THanks.

Found it..Query name is P2. It was in a different query area..Standard area and not custom area where I was initially looking at.

Editing the Query name for all reports in PRD.

Dear All,
I have created 25 reports using Query Designer.We have moved all the reports to BI Production. And Clients are using these reports using the Tool Bex Analyser.
Every time they are navigating through open Query -> Info Areas -> Data targets and Query.
Instead of going this way, is there any other way to Open a query easily.
And they wants to modify the Report name and the Technical name for all the reports. Can we able to edit the Query name for all reports, or do i need to go for SAVE AS for all querys.
Pls Suggest.
Thanks,
Ram

Hi Ram,
1. For the first question; if it user specific query then ask the users to save them at the FAVORITES so that there is no need to go to the dataprovider specific.
Or they can create the reports as favorites user menu screen of that particular user.
2. In order to change the technical name and description of the queries goto RSZC t-code> give the source and target infoprovider as same> select queries>click on the reports>click on transfer selections-->
Then you get a screen to change the description and technical name.
But this is pertained to Infoprovider level.
You can see all the reports on the infoprovider (cube/ods).
Hope you understood.

Column name changed in reports

I have to do some changes on my existing report, its really a complex report with more number of columns and tables. now its really hard to fix the alias name changed by report builder automatically. any one could help me to fix this problem, means what i have alias name in query that i want to use in report.

Hi,
Could you pl clarify the Q? Do you mean that Reports Buider has automatically added an alias to a column name? This is not expected.
Or do you mean that you need to change the alias of the column without disturbing the report definition? You can alter the data model of the report using the feature "Customization at runtime using XML". For more information, refer to Chapter 16 in Publishing Reports Manual for 10g:

Query Region - Changing "Go" Button

Using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3 with R12.
I was going through the tutorial and I completed the "Search" tutorial. After I was done, I wanted to customize it and play around with it and I'm trying to change the "Go" button to something different, but I can't seem to find where to change the text of the button.
I guess because when you tell it to make a query region and search panel etc it automatically puts in those buttons? But how do I change the text of the buttons.
Thank you in advance.
Edited by: Pierre on Jun 14, 2012 12:09 PM

Pierre,
Yes this is possible. The trick here is to not start with the webBean, but the OAPageLayoutBean. Also you need to attach this controller as the controller of the table beneath your query region so that when it is called, the GO button exists.
Here is the code (presume simpleSearchRN is the name of your query region, change to match your query region name):
OAPageLayoutBean pl = (OAPageLayoutBean) pageContext.getPageLayoutBean();
OAQueryBean qb1 = (OAQueryBean)pl.findChildRecursive("simpleSearchRN");
OASubmitButtonBean sb = (OASubmitButtonBean) qb1.findChildRecursive(qb1.getGoButtonName());
sb.setText("SmartyPants");
Hope this helps.

Cube/query name is not available in trx MDXTEST

Hi All
I was trying to use a custom BI query on top of infocube 0CP_SLSC6 as a source for mdx queries. I have set the property Allow External Access To This Query in BEx for the custom BI query. But in trx mdxtest I cant see the cube name in CATALOG list or the query name in CUBE list; However if I select infoprovider for CATALOG then I can see the cube name in CUBE list. Any clue how to sort this out. Thanks in advance
Thanks & Regards
Sudip

I just had the same problem ... this is how I did it:
I don't think you need to enable the query for OLE DB access to use MDXTEST - MDXTEST is just an MDX Query writer helper tool.
To text your query/report you can just use direct entry and paste in the technical name of the query or other object; using Shift+F4 or click on the edit button (the one with the notepad and pencil)... then paste the name.
You can get the technical name of your query/report from the end of the execute string from Favourites e.g.
<prt_protcl>://<prt_server>/<bi_launcher>?QUERY=REP_20100610164528
So from your Favourites, pretend you are going to change your query/report and copy the technical name REP_xxxxx or whatever and paste it into MDXTEST...
Then choose your syntax template and add your rows and columns etc.
Unfortunately our MDXTEST doesn't seem to be working! as I get the error message "during allocate / CPIC-CALL: 'ThSAPCMRCV'"
Which is covered elsewhere ... so I will contact our Admin

Bex - Query Mass Change

Hello Gure,
I am in a requirement where I need to put a filter in all my Bex quires with company code.
We have almost 2000 plus quires and I need to filter them all with company code and we donu2019t have much time and resources to handle this.
So I thinking to do with ABAP. Please let me is there any way I can achieve the through ABAP coding.
I did some analysis and find out some table where the query data stored.
Like table Below
RSZCOMPDIR Query Name
RSZRANGE Range
RSZELTDIR - Technical Name
RSZELTXREF Reff Name
Please advise me .

Hi,
I´m just doing the same (add filter). The program changes some tables like RSZRANGE, RSZSELECT, RSZELTDIR, RSZELTXREF and RSZELTPROP.
But how do I get the queries being generated?
So far after using the programm I tried RSRT and generate the report, but then I get an error (variable not correctly used). When opening the query in Query Designer the error is mentioned, but I can save the query and all is fine, means the error is gone.

Need Query Name at top of 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN Template

Hi, When I run my query using template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN it shows the query name at the top of the template.
I created a master template with 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN embedded as a WEB TEMPLATE WEB ITEM. When I execute my Master Template it shows the text of the Master Web Template Description. Any way to get it to show the query description instead?
Thanks!

Change the data binding of the text web item to use the Data Provider Description. In this case the description of the query.
Thanks!

Power View Enhancement Request - Allow for columns to drop off PowerView when column name changes in data model instead of rendering the PowerView inaccessible

Currently in PowerView, if a column name changes in the tabular model, and that column is being used in a PowerView chart, the PowerView will become inaccessible.
It would be nice if it functioned similar to Pivot Table. If a column name changes for a column that is being used in a Pivot Table, the field is just removed from the chart, and the user can select the newly named column.

Hi plantm,
After testing the issue in my environment, I can reproduce it. After we change a column name which is used in a Power View chart, Power view will render the message that” The external data connection has been disabled for this Power View report. Please enable
the connection.” when we reopen the file.
To fix this issue, we can click Refresh button under POWER VIEW menu, then it would prompt us that” Power View was not able to complete the action due to a query failure. This can happen if the structure of your data has changed, in which case closing and
re-opening the application will resolve the problem.”
According to the error message, we should try to reopen the file to fix this issue. Power view will render the message that” Please refresh to see the data for this Power View Sheet. You can set properties in the Connection Properties dialog so that the
data refreshes automatically when you open the file.” when we reopen the file. Then we can refresh it again, the report will be displayed without that field.
Based on my research, inherently what the message means is that Power View cannot be used as a tool for snapshot reporting. With an Excel PivotTable, we can see the data last saved in the PivotTable. Power View, however, does not behave the same way – it
won’t render the last saved state. If we want to avoid this message when we reopen the file, there are two methods:
When we create the Power View report, we can select the checkbox that “Refresh data when opening the file”.
After it’s been set up, go to Connections on the Data menu, then choose Properties.
For more details about the settings, we can refer to the following blog:
http://www.sqlchick.com/entries/2013/3/30/creating-a-power-view-report-in-excel-2013-which-uses-an-ext.html
Hope this helps.

How Discoverer Reports cope with table name changes

I want to change the name of an oracle table that is queried by a number of Discoverer reports owned by various users.
I have been told that Discoverer might have the smarts to handle this without manual intervention of users having to open their reports and repoint them to the new tablename. Would someone be able to enlighten me?

Thanks Guys for help.
Additionally I'd like to add for the purpose of the name change is business driven and therefore it is important that business (report writers) see the new name so.....
For each simple folder in the EUL there are there 3 attributes you need to be aware of:
(1) Folder Name (the name as seen in Discoverer)
(2) Identifier
(3) Physical Database Object name
(1) and (2) are used by a Disco workbook to resolve back to the physical object name.
Therefore, you can change either (1) or (2) [but not both] and still have the workbook resolving back to the physical object name on the folder (ie (3)).
In summation, I changed (1) and (3) while leaving (2) unchanged to resolve the whole glorious mess....

Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verif

Help needed. I have a 3TB external hard drive partitioned into 1TB's. I used one partition as backup for the main computer hard drive. But now it is greyed out as shown in the disk utility and its name changed, i dont know how that happened, i tried verifying and repairing it but had no luck. I also tried mounting and unmounting it but still no solution. Anyone to help please?

Looks bad. I would strongly advise backing up the stuff on the other two partitions as soon as possible in case the rest of the drive goes wrong.
Beyond that, Disk Utility has limited abilities to repair disks, DiskWarrior uses a different approach and might, emphasis might be more successful. It has certainly done the job for me in the past when Disk Utility could not.
