Running DBMS_SQL.EXECUTE in Oracle Select Statment

HI i have table Emp which has 3 column namely name,st_date and end_date. table has 3 records as below:
name st_date end_date
X sysdate+10 sysdate+50
Y sysdate+12 sysdate+30
Z sysdate+15 sysdate+35
Now if i run the run select statment select * from emp, it will show above values. but i need the values in the columns to be executed and shown in the select statemtn with alias column i.e. assign sysdate is : 01-jan-2013
so i need the o/p to be:
X 20-Jan-2013 19-Feb-2013
Y 22-Jan-2013 30-Jan-2013
Z 15-Jan-2013 04-feb-2013
i dont want to create a function in plsql and pass the values to it. if u use select name,dbms_sql.execute(dbms_sql.parse(dbms_sql.open(),'select st_date from emp'))) is ok for me.
Advance Thanks for your help!!
i have restriction not able to create function, so i need to try in the sql statment only!!

This is one of the many posts over here where the OP can not be bothered to include the four digit version number.
I can never understand why the version number is left out other than out of rudeness, arrogance and utter laziness.
Apparently the small lot here responding should be clairvoyant and/or remember all version numbers.
I'm going to call for a boycot of people posting without version number!!!!
As to the code:
There is no reason why you are using dbms_sql here, you are misusing Oracle, and it should have been static sql.
At least t2 should have been a bind variable, dbms_sql does support bind variables!
As far as I know the command string should be a varchar2, not a clob, and if t2 is a bind variable there is no need for t1 to be a clob.

How to handle error while using dbms_sql.execute

Hi,
I am inserting some records by using the following piece of code.

Executing an oracle stored procedure in xMII 11.5

Dear all,
      I am facing problem executing an oracle stored procedure using sql query in MII. The SP does not have any input or output parameters & consists of only 2 insert statements. I tried to use Command Mode, FixedQuery & FixedQuery With output mode, but the SP doesn't run.
This is the error i get when i use :
execute InsertTest or exec InsertTest - A SQL Error has occurred on query, ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement
I read in one of the posts to use 'CALL' instead of 'exec' or 'execute'. Even with this i get error which states:
A SQL Error has occurred on query, ORA-06576: not a valid function or procedure name
The syntax i used is CALL InsertTest - 'InsertTest' is the SP name.
I also checked Sam's comment in one of the posts about jdbc driver. We are using oracle 9i, so i guess there is no problem with the version of DB.
The stored procedure is working fine in SQL Developer, How else can i invoke the SP in MII?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Sushma.

Hi all,
for insert create procedure
CREATE PROCEDURE MII_TEST_INSUPD
(ID_IN IN NUMBER,
NAME_IN IN VARCHAR2)
IS
BEGIN
-- UPDATE ROW
UPDATE TEST SET
          NAME = NAME_IN
WHERE
          ID = ID_IN;
-- NOT RETURN INSERT NEW LINE IN TABLE
IF SQL%ROWCOUNT = 0 THEN
     INSERT INTO TEST (ID, NAME) VALUES (ID_IN, NAME_IN);
END IF;
END;
In MII you create a query template
Mode - Command
FixedQuery - insert the code below
CALL MII_TEST_INSUPD ([Param.1],'[Param.2]')
for returns the grid using procedures in oracle you need create a package on oracle server
CREATE PACKAGE PKG_test IS
TYPE cursortype is ref cursor;
PROCEDURE test (mycursor in out cursortype);
END PKG_test;
CREATE PACKAGE BODY PKG_test IS
PROCEDURE test (mycursor in out cursortype) AS
BEGIN
     open mycursor for select * from test;
END;
END PKG_test;
In MII you create a query template
Mode - FixedQueryWithOutput
FixedQuery - insert the code below
CALL PKG_TEST.TEST(?)

Table list for select statment

hello all,
I been trying to setup a plsql statment to run a select statment from tables that are in a list.
this is what I have done so far as a test and it is not letting me do it and I don't know why can anyone point me in the right direction.
declare
cursor main_log is
select *
from joseph_w.table_name_list;
cml main_log%rowtype;
var1 varchar2(35);
var2 varchar2(35;
begin
open main_log;
fetch main_log into cml;
var1 := cml.schema_name;
var2 := cml.table_name;
select *
from var1.var2;
close main_log;
end;
thanks

In PL/SQL you cannot just "select", as PL/SQL is a server sided language. You must use a record or variable to hold the selected data. Anyway, for selecting from different tables dynamically, you can use (Native) Dynamic SQL or Ref Cursors. Take a look at the documentation, especially the "PL/SQL User's Guide and Reference":

Authentication to agent workstation failed when trying to run a test in Oracle Test Manager

I have the complete version of OATS installed on my local machine. I have the OracleATSHelper, OracleATSServer and OracleATSAgent services running.
In OTM when I go to run an openscript test I select the system, type the version number and hit run and get a "Authentication to agent workstation failed" error in the summary field.
It worked before but I cant figure out why it isnt working anymore.
Can anyone help?

ATS Version: 12.3.0.1.0 build 376
I am getting the same error when trying to execute a script from OTM - "Authentication to agent workstation failed".
I have the OTM server on a remote (server) machine and the Oracle Agent is running on my laptop / workstation. I've tried all I have seen on this thread, but no progress. The manager is now in manual mode and the console only provides the following output:
D:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin>d:\OracleATS\agentmanager\bin\AgentManagerService.exe -c AgentManagerService.conf
wrapper | --> Wrapper Started as Console
wrapper | Launching a JVM...
jvm 1    | Wrapper (Version 3.0.3)
jvm 1    |
One different thing, maybe, I see is that the agentmanager_auth.log is empty always.
Also, on the server, I've added this SYSTEM successfully, i.e.the Testing of the SYSTEM added in OTM always gives the success message "The system specified can be successfully accessed by the Oracle Test Manager server." . In fact it does this even when I provide an incorrect password!

How does "SELECT" statment work?

Hi,
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Data selected by SELECT statement (without ORDER BY) is unordered and sequence of selected lines may differ every time you execute the same SELECT.
My problem is that data on a production system has been always selected ordered ( without ORDER BY) and suddenly it changes and the rows of a result set are unordered.
It's also strange for me that it works differently on a test system and data is selected ordered ( the code is the same on both systems ).
Two questions:
1. How is it possible that data was always selected ordered? (the only answer which comes to my head is "LUCK" )
2. What has happened that data is now selected unordered? (and works as SELECT statment should work by definition)
Thanks for any ideas,
Mario

Hello,
I see there is an equality 3-3 in the match here, between
1) those who are for "it's ordered" (Rodrigo Ariel G..., Danish2285, pavankumar.g)
2) and those "it's not ordered" (Diwakar Aggarwal, Keshav.T, Matt).
So I'd like to play too :-D and my answer is "it's not ordered" (with Diwakar Aggarwal, Keshav.T, Matt).
now 3-4
My advice is: always trust the SAP documentation when it's said explicitly (I'm aware that the arguments or context are sometimes missing, so a confirmation is then needed).
You'll find it also in the wikipedia for SQL article (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL#Queries): "The ORDER BY clause identifies which columns are used to sort the resulting data, and in which direction they should be sorted (options are ascending or descending). Without an ORDER BY clause, the order of rows returned by an SQL query is undefined."
Oracle SQL Reference, in the Query Optimizer section (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14117_01/server.101/b10752/optimops.htm#35891) : "If data must be sorted by order, then use the ORDER BY clause, and do not rely on an index. If an index can be used to satisfy an ORDER BY clause, then the optimizer uses this option and avoids a sort."
In fact, this is logic when we know how RDBMS are built, all this is about the selection of the access path to get the data (that we see with the explain plan, the path depends especially on what the database contains, that is different between test and production), the faster way to do things (an ordering is not always required, so why the RDBMS would spend time to organize it)
Don't we have this question in the Forum's FAQ by the way?

I recieve the following error when trying to build and run a labview executable. I am able to build the executable but when trying to run the executable, a pop up window comes up asking the user to select a dll. (please see screen shot attached). Once the DLL is selected, I get the error that This VI is not Executable. The full development version of Labview is required to fix the errors. (please see screen shot attached). I have also attached a snapshot of the project window.
I have the professional development system
I can run the main VI
all the required DLL's are in the dependencies section of the project window.
I am trying to find the root cause of this error but to no avail. can anyone give me a clue to what i am missing here. Any suggestions on where i should look to find the problem ?

Oracle - select execution time

hi all,
when i executed an SQL - select (with joins and so on) - I have observed the following behaviour:
Query execution times are like: -
for 1000 records - 4 sec
5000 records - 10 sec
10000 records - 7 sec
25000 records - 16 sec
50000 records - 33 sec
I tested this behaviour with different sets of sqls on different sets of data. But in each of the cases, the behaviour is more or less the same.
Can any one explain - why Oracle takes more time to result 5000 records than that it takes to 10000.
Please note that this has not something to do with the SQLs as - i tested this with different sets of sql on different sets of data.
Can there be any Oracle`s internal reason - which can explain this behaviour?
regards
at

That is not normal behaviour. I've never come across anything like that that wasn't explainable by some environment factor (e.g. someone else doing a big sort).
I ran a couple of tests:
(1) to insert 5000 rows 0.1 seconds
to insert 10000 rows 0.18 seconds
and
(2) to select 5000 rows joined with 200K row table 0.19 seconds
to select 10000 rows joined with 200K row table 0.2 seconds
Although the second is close, I grant you!
Cheers, APC

How to run a EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement in a Interactive Report

Hello all!!
I need to make a dinamic construction of a query to execute in a Interactive Report, but the Region Source only allows simple SELECT statements. There is any way to run a EXECUTE IMMEDIATE statement in a Interactive Report Region Source?
Regards Pedro.

Thank you Andy for your reply.
I have been testing for a while the use of a collection in the interactive report but i am unable to load data in the interactive report.
I created the collection successfully in the SQL Commands with the code:
declare
v_sql varchar2(32000);
begin
v_sql:='select ename, job from emp';
APEX_COLLECTION.CREATE_COLLECTION_FROM_QUERY('coleccao_emp',v_sql,'NO' );
end;
I tested successfully the creation of the collection with the query:
SELECT c001, c002
FROM APEX_collections
WHERE collection_name = 'COLECCAO_EMP'
My problem is: the data of the collection are returned in the SQL Commands but when i run the query statament in an interactive report, report or even a Pl/Sql region in my application the data aren't displayed, only the message (No data found).
Can someone explain why, besides the collection is populated the interactive can not print the results.
Regards Pedro.
