Question about different query results with wildcard

Hi, I'm working with a third party app on SQL Server 2000, and from what I can gather, programmed in C# & VisualFoxPro.
When we search with
    Note contains 94949
we get 571 results, when we search with
    Note contains 94949*
we get 575 results.
There should be at least a hundred different entries that start with "94949-1" so I expected the query with the wildcard to return something like 680 results, not an additional four rows.
Searching with
    Note contains 94949-1*
got 483 results
    Note contains 94949-10*
got 0 results
Could someone explain or point me to more documentation on the difference results we get?
Thanks

Hi Arnie, thanks for your response.
My situation is more basic than what appears in your example. Unfortunately, I am working solely through this application so I do not have access to the SQL to test out what you supplied, so my question is more of a need for an explanation of the search results. I do find lots of references to LIKE, Wildcards and pattern matching, but I don't find a way to explain to the users the best and most complete way to search. They mostly need a "this will always get us the results without missing anything" search technique and then to be able to select from a smaller group. I guess I need a basic course in understanding search results: how to get different ones and what they mean.
Using
        Note contains 94949-'%'
returned one more result than when using an asterisk. I don't understand this difference.
        Note contains 94949-'%1'   or
        Note contains 94949-'1%'
brings nothing nor does not using quotes. But there are hundreds of records which have the string starting with 94949-1 and a varying number of characters after that.
?Does the dash read not as a character in the string but as an expression?
When I use WITHIN 3 characters, I get too few results (eight). If I use AND, I get text unrelated to the account number I am looking for.
Again when I tried to narrow the search by adding one digit to the string to be matched, I did not get any results, but 500 results from the more general search is too much to scan by opening individual records.
Thanks for pondering this with me.

Hi I have a question about shooting in Raw with my Canon EOS 6d.
I'm in the process of learning photography and my goal was to start shooting in raw.
I have Photoshop CS5. When I tried to edit my images in raw I received an error message stating, "The photoshop camera raw plug-in did not recognize the format. If these files are from a camera, you may need to update your camera raw plug in."
In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6. My version of CS5 is 6.0.0.205. Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost. THANKS in advance!

In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6.
That is correct. Your camera was first supported by Camera Raw 7.3. Camera Raw 7.3 will not work with CS5. You need CS6 or CC.
Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost.
It all depends on your preferred workflow and your budget.
Using the DNG converter is free. There is no monthly fee. You use the converter to convert all Raw files from the EOS 6D to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5. That's an extra step every time - every photo. Some people don't like the extra step. Others don't mind.
Camera raw, DNG | Adobe Photoshop CC
Or you can upgrade to CS6 (non-Cloud) and pay the upgrade fee
Creative Suite 6
Or join the Cloud and pay the monthly fee
Or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US9.99/month) and get PS CC+LR

Question about expressions that result in strings with quotes

Without jumping into too many of the details, I want to do something like this:
<h:outputLink onclick="someJSFunc('#{somebean.someVal}')" />
When the expression results in a string that contains apostrophes, the code naturally fails. Pre-JSF, I simply used a JSP scriptlet that took the value and passed it to a method that encoded it (quotes became an HTML code, etc). However, I don't know how I can achieve the same results with JSF...
Any ideas???

Are you using the latest RI? I'm looking at the source code, and the default response writer seems to escape quotes as """ when writing attributes, as it should for HTML.
If you do have the latest RI, what sort of error are you getting?

How to add different query results in Report designer

Hi,
I am creating a report based on 3 queries. At the end i need to show total of 3 query results.
How can i add results of queries in report designer??
thanks in advance

Hi Siva,
As u said that u want to show the results of the queries through report designer but i think it is used for formatted reports .
If u want to see tha results of diffrent query then u can use workbook .
In workbook u can also analyse reports easily by applying slice and dice techniques .
from different queries result set will be displayed on workbook with formatting and good look and feel.
regards,
Supriya

Numbering query results with a line number in SQL*Plus

Doesn't it stand to reason that in SQL*Plus there would be a way to number each query results sequentially with line numbers starting at 1 to n -- something option like from a SET command? I'm not talking about linesize.

There's a column rownum the engine adds into the result sets, just add it to the select list. Can use it to limit the result set (with some limitations) i.e.:
select rownum, ... from ... where rownum <= 100
Can't use ">=", that condition will never be met but a subset could be used:
select * from ( select rownum as linenr, tab1.* from ... ) where linenr between 10 and 20

Incorrect query results with conformResultsInUnitOfWork

Hi,
has anybody experienced this:
Take two classes User and Group
Group has a 1:n Mapping to User (attribute users)
User has a 1:1 Mapping to User (attribute partner).
Following query returns too many objects
User user1 = someUserObject;
ReadAllQuery readAllQuery = new ReadAllQuery(Group.class);
Expression e = builder.anyOf("users").get("partner").equal(user1);
readAllQuery.setSelectionCriteria(e);
readAllQuery.conformResultsInUnitOfWork();
Vector vector = (Vector) unitOfWork.executeQuery(readAllQuery);
It returns
- the correct Group object as determined from the sql query +
- any other objects of the same class that are fully instantiated (users is instantiated and for each user, partner is instantiated), even if they don't conform to the expression.
The same query works properly ;
- without conformResults
- or if the other objects are not fully instantiated

Hi,
we need an workaround badly and the support is moving at exactly the rate I feared it would.
So I thought, since we only hit this bug with existing objects and we use conformResultsInUnitOfWork because we want to find the newly created objects, is there a way to get
- the SQL Query results
+ any new objects that conform to the query
We still might get new objects that don't conform to the query (this is the bug) but I'll worry about that later if it happens.
My first attempt at a solution looks like this:
1. turn off conformResults
2. manually add all new objects that conform to the query
I had to guess a little for 2, since I don't know what exactly toplink does to select the "conform" objects.
private static List findConformNewObjects(UnitOfWork unitOfWork, ReadAllQuery query) {
List result = new ArrayList();
Class resultClass = query.getReferenceClass();
Expression selectionCriteria = query.getSelectionCriteria();
Enumeration enumeration;
IdentityHashtable newObjectsCloneToOriginal = unitOfWork.getNewObjectsCloneToOriginal();
if (newObjectsCloneToOriginal != null && newObjectsCloneToOriginal.size() > 0)
enumeration = newObjectsCloneToOriginal.keys();
while (enumeration.hasMoreElements())
Object o = enumeration.nextElement();
if (resultClass.isInstance(o))
if (selectionCriteria != null && selectionCriteria.doesConform(o, unitOfWork, null, query.getInMemoryQueryIndirectionPolicy()))
result.add(o);
return result;
Does this look OK to you? Is there a better way to do it?

Copy BW query results with formatting

When copying a query's results to another workbook, the formatting (namely coloring) changes. Is there any way to copy the query results to a new workbook and keep the exact same formatting as in original query?

One way to do this would be to copy the worksheet with the results to the other workbook, as follows:
Edit --> Move or copy sheet... --> change "To book:" to the 2nd workbook --> check "Create a copy" option --> OK
After doing that, you can cut & paste from the copied worksheet to other worksheets in the workbook, if necessary, and the formatting will be maintained.
Hope this helps...

Some question about the query designer

hello, dear all,
I am a new comer of here, and I am intersting in BI, but I have no basic knowledge about it.
so I just want someone could give me some advice about it.
our boss need I do the developer about the query designer, I just have searched in this forum. but nothing founded for I am a new comer here,
I heard there are some training document of the query designer, could someone give me the URL, thanks.

Hi,
Query desinger is used to develop a Query, Query can be created on following data targets
-Info Cube
-DSO
Virtual data target
-MultiCube
-Infoset
-Multiprovider
We have 5 section in query designer
- Infoprovider : where we select the data target , on which report to be created
-Filter : to restrict value at infoprovider level ( if you want data for year 2008, for example)
-Free Characterstic : this allow you to drill down
-Columns : char/keyfigs to be display in columns can be added here
Row: key/char to be display in Rows can be added here
gv me ur mailid i will let u have Bex manual,
I would suggest , if you have any IDES ( training ) system , where you can log in and then go to RRMX,
and try to create new query and add any data target ( which is already created ) and then drag and drop the char/key fig to the required section ,
save it and execute it .....
if you play arround and see the output , that would help u to understand how to work with query designer.
Hope this helps

Question about infoset query with code

Hi experts.
I always appreciate your help. Today, I have some problem. I made infoset query using SQ01 and got some data. Those data include WBS no but some of them didn't. So I tried to put some code into the infoset query that any data has not WBS has some value, for example 'X', in WBS no field.
I needed to know what field or table I should control to display value 'X' in WBS no field in case that WBS field has no value.
I tried to put code at "END-OF-SELECTION(before display)" and control %dtab. But I met error message there is no such table %dtab. So, I define %dtab then during runtime, I also met error message %dtab has already been defiend.
How can I do? Is it impossible thing?? I'm wating for your answer.
regards.

Hi, if you just want to fill the field if it is blank, you can do this in the Record Processing Section.
I'm not familar with the WBS number, so for this example, I will fill the BISMT in MARA during the "Recording Processing" Section.
if mara-bismt is initial.
mara-bismt = 'X'.
endif.

Question about caml query with UserID/ parameter (working outside of sharepoint )

I have to develop a custom view. I should take the current user and query it in List1 to obtain owned group names. Then I am supposed to query each group name in a List2 to obtain corresponding users. And In a new custom list view I should display those users..
Let's assume I'm working in a c# class in VS. Below is my initial code to fetche owned groups by the current user.
SPQuery query = new SPQuery();
query.ViewFields = @"<FieldRef Name='Title'/>";
query.Query = @"<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Title' /><Value Type='Integer'><UserID/></Value></Eq></Where>";
SPList lstUsers = web.Lists["Users"];
SPListItemCollection userItems = lstUsers.GetItems(query);
foreach (SPListItem myitem in userItems)
{Response.Write(myitem["Title"].ToString());}
The "<UserID/>"   parameter in caml query does not work outside...
query.Query = @"<Where><Eq><FieldRef Name='Title' /><Value Type='Integer'><UserID/></Value></Eq></Where>";
How can I obtained the current logged user from outside of sharepoint?
Should I write my code somewhere other then a seperate vs c# class?
I appreciate any idea and suggestions....

If you are quering a User ID of UserField, you need to add LookupId='True'/ to FieldRef
<Eq>
         <FieldRef Name=Owner' LookupId='True'/>
         <Value Type='User' >2</Value>
</Eq>

Question about bad query

Hi all ,
I have small question related to bad query .
what is the affecting happens to database if there is lot of bad query , i know the performance issue is there what's other things .like archive log generated database time , IO , TMP tablespace , please give me information about it's .
thanks & regards.

user11969912 wrote:
I have small question related to bad query . What do you consider a bad query? A bad query can be the result of poorly written and illogical SQL. It can be due to not using bind variables. It can be due to a on-optimal execution plan generated by the CBO. It can be due to poorly designed code that uses what seems to be a "good query", badly and in the wrong way (using bulk collection when a native SQL alone suffices, or hitting the very same data multiple times, etc).
what is the affecting happens to database if there is lot of bad query Each of these have a different impact on the database. A "bad query" can cause a snapshot-too-old error. A deadlock error. A shared pool memory allocation error. Can cause no error and simple increase I/O. Or increase CPU. Etc.
It is a lot more complex than what you seem to think, given your question.
