Retrieve multiple row single column output as single string

hii
I have query like "select country_name from country_master where <condition>".
This query results in multiple rows. I want those multiple rows as a string like "country1, country2, contry3".
I know i can write a function/cursor to achieve that but want to know if we have a way to get that within the query itself.
Thanks

Populate multiple rows and columns based off of a single cell

Does anyone know a way to populate multiple rows and columns based off of the input of a single cell. I'm trying to create a workout tracker that auto populates from a master list of workouts. Example, in A2 the user selects the workout from a drop down menu (St1, St2, St3, etc) and the workout is pulled from the master list and is populated into B2:C5.
I'm using =LOOKUP(A2,Master :: A2:A32,Master :: C2:C32) right now, but it's only drawing the top column. I'm looking for an edit for the formula (or completely new formula) that will place the info from the 1st column of the Master table into the 1st column of the Auto Tracker 1 table and then on down until the 4th column.
Here is a screen shot of what I have now:
And an example of what I'd like to accomplish:
Any and all help is appreciated, and please let me know if there is any more info that I can give that'd help out.

Hi Mike,
Your screenshots show that you have merged some cells in Column A of both tables. That may be the reason why the LOOKUP function is having trouble working out which range of cells to examine.
Hope this helps.

Ian.

Please help me to achieve this output.
Tried grouping but its not working also producing the same result.
Thanks.

Insert into Test_SAmple Values(1001,NULL,'JAPANESE', NULL, NULL),
(1001,'SPANISH', NULL, NULL, NULL),
(1001,NULL, NULL, NULL, 'ENGLISH'),
(1001,NULL, NULL, 'RUSSIAN', NULL)
Select ID,MAX(Language1),MAX(Language2),MAX(Language3),MAX(Language4)

FWD: Re: Retrieving multiple rows from a database into morethan

There are two ways to do this that I cn think of right off the bat.
One is to create a class of objects that can receive the entire row, and
give it methods that will return each of the individual objects that you are
looking for when called. If you use INTO :ARRAY, you get the advantage of
being able to pass the array anywhere in your system for the 'split up'
processing.
Two is to do basically the same thing, but instead doing the 'split up'
during a for loop. This will appear to slow down your query, however, as
extra processing will be occuring in terms of memory allocation and copying.
I'm sure there other approaches. This was simply what came to mind at
midnight, after a long day :-).
At 01:33 AM 6/4/96 +0000, you wrote:
Does anyone know of a way to retrieve multiple rows from a single table in an

I have a single table that I wish to use some fields to populate one object
and some others to populate another.
The FOR clause only allows one object to be specified.
The INTO :ARRAY clause also seems to only allow one object to be specified.
I would appreciate any help.

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited

Web dynpro screen with multiple rows with columns that can be edited individually:
Hi
I am busy creating a screen in web dynpro for ABAP which we would like to make available via Portal ESS (Portal 7).
I need to add 'n type of table (or almost something like Excel) or something in which someone can type a few paycode numbers (there should be lets say 10 blank rows in which info can be typed in and if I click on a button or so, more rows must be added if necessary. Then in the other colums stuff like amounts must be entered which one should also be able to edit then and there.
Can anyone assist in what I can use for this? There does not seem to be some existing element that I can use.
Help will be appreciated.
Regards
Debbie

Hi Debbie,
Whiel Creating table you need to be care full that use chose INPUT FIELD as the CELL EDITOR. Just guessing that if ur table is not editable u might have choosen TextView as default cell editor type.
check link for details on TABLE UI
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005/helpdata/EN/b5/ac884118aa1709e10000000a155106/frameset.htm]
easy way is to first add UI ELEMENT TABLE to your VIEW, then right click over it & select create binding from context. After you have a pop up where you can select what columns you want what should be its cell editor etc.
Greetings

Adding and Deleting Multiple Rows or Columns

How do you add or delete more than one row or column at a time.

It is a pity though that they desing it to work only if you select the header of the row/column. It should be enabled to work from within any cell in the table.
Who wrote such an error ?
These interesting shortcuts behave flawlessly even if the cursor was in D18 for instance.

Reading each value from spreadsheet file with delay (multiple rows and columns)

Hi,
a) I want to read EACH VALUE from a spreadsheet file having multiple rows and columns WITH DELAY. I am attaching my VI and sample datalog file for reference (tempsensor.txt).I need to do so because as soon as I read put ON the Sensor button on front panel, LV reads all the values at one go. I need the values for each temperature to be displayed after a delay.
b) Secondly, I would like to read another file containing the state of four antennas (deployed:1; undeployed:0). I am logging state of each antenna in each column of the file(magnet.txt) I need to have four LEDS on front panel to display state of the antennas. I dont know what I have done for antennas in my VI is right or wrong. I guess thats rhe wrong way to approach the problem. Please help!!!(column1: Antenna1 state ; Column2:Antenna2 state.. and so..on..)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks in advance,
Ratnesh
FYI: The first column in my datalog file represents timestamp(number of seconds elapsed), second column: reading for temperature sensor 1, third column: reading for temperature senosr 2, and so on. I am using approx. 11 temperature sensors.
Also, I have generated the log files for the reference purpose only. They do not represent the actual values. They are far away from actual values.

Look at this modified version of your VI. After looking at it, I determined that a shift reggister was not required in this case.

How to save data from JTable multiple rows and columns

Hi Y_Not thanks for your help before...
But what should I do if I want to get/save many data from many column and rows??

i don't quite understand your (repeated) question. what is the problem with "multiple rows and columns". Y_NOT and i have shown you ways to access them.
all you need are 2 loops: one around your number of rows and one around the number of columns or vice versa depending in which order you want to save things:
for (int col = 0; col < data.size(); col++) {
    for (int row = 0 ; row < data[col].size(); row++) {
        // save your data
        saveData(data[col].getElementAt(row));
        // or use yourtable.getValueAt(row, col);
}this is not a problem of Swing/Java but of simple algorithm...

You could also put the ranges into a table (or a sub-query, as shown below) and join:

How to import multiple Excel/CSV columns into a single Sharepoint metadata choice column?

Consider: I work for an organization that has eight service territories. We have a series of procedural documents that can apply to from one to eight territories. We are moving this data over to sharepoint, and I'd like to add territory
data as metadata. Unfortunately, with our current knowledge management system, the best we can get is 8 separate fields flagged as yes/no.
is1 is2 is3 is4 is5 is6 is7 is8
1   0
1   1   0
0   0
0
0   0
0   1   1
0   0
0
0   0
0   0   0
0   1
0
I would like to be able to import this data into a SINGLE sharepoint metadata column as Choice/checkboxes/allow Multiple values. Is there a way to do this? We're using Foundations 2010, and our area does not have access to
development tools (including SPD).

Thanks for the reply. We have eight individual Columns in the Excel File, and when we do the import to Sharepoint, yes we get eight individual metadata columns.
I would LIKE to be able to import the eight columns into ONE column in Sharepoint.
Consider three documents.
Doc1 is information applicable to Territories 1,3 & 4.
Doc2 is information applicable to Territories 4 & 5.
Doc3 is information applicable to Territory 7.
      is1 is2 is3 is4 is5 is6 is7 is8
doc1   1   0
1   1
0   0   0
0
doc2   0   0
0   1
1   0   0
0
doc3   0   0
0   0
0   0   1
0
This metadata would import to a SINGLE column in SharePoint called IsTerritory, which is defined as a Checkbox (multiple values) Choice Field, limited to the values 1-8.
Doc1 would have checkboxes 1,3, & 4 checked, Doc2 would have checkboxes 4 & 5 checked, and Doc 3 would only have checkbox 3 checked.
Does that make a little more sense? I'm having problems validating my account, so I can't upload screenshots yet...
Thanks in advance for your reply.

How to process multiple rows of data into a single string

Hello,
I am trying to process multiple rows of text from an Oracle database into one field to display on a report as continuous text. Below is sample data. The text field is 55 characters wide so anything longer is broken into multiple rows. I need to recombine it for display.
line          text
1             IN THE N.E. QUADRANT OF THE INTERSECTION OF THE FAIRFAX
2              COUNTY PARKWAY AND THE DULLES AIRPORT ACCESS AND THE T
3             OLL ROAD AND SOUTH OF SUNSET HILLS ROAD
I tried creating a formula field but it did not work, below is the code in Visual Basic syntax. I also tried using the Maximum() and UBound() functions without luck. I don't quite understand how to make the UBound() work; it threw a lot of errors.
Dim i As Number
Dim strLocDesc As String
For i = 1 To count({LDS_AR_RL_COMM.ART_LINE_NUM})
    strLocDesc = strLocDesc & {LDS_AR_RL_COMM.ART_COMM_RMK}(i)
Next i
formula = strLocDesc
Any ideas on how to solve this?

Hello Allison,
You can try this:
Create a formula called @StoreText, place it in the details and have the following code in it:
WhilePrintingRecords;
Global StringVar Text1;
Global StringVar TextRest;
if {field.line} = 1 then
Text1:= {field.text} else
if {field.line} >= 2 then
TextRest := TextRest+" "+{field.text};
In the Group Footer you can have a formula called @GetStoreText with the following code in it:
WhilePrintingRecords;
Global StringVar Text1;
Global StringVar TextRest;
Text1+varTextRest;
See how that works out for you.
Regards,
Zack
