Select into from 2 tables

Thanks in advance
Is it possible do a SELECT INTO from 2 tables, that is (like in Informix)
declare
rg_table1    table1%ROWTYPE;
rg_table2    table2%ROWTYPE;
BEGIN
             SELECT A.*, B.* INTO rg_table1 , rg_table2
                   FROM table1 a, table2 B
                        WHERE ....

no, I don't think so....
SQL> declare
2     t1 t%rowtype;
3     s1 s%rowtype;
4 begin
5     select t.*
6          , s.*
7       into t1
8          , s1
9    from t, s
10    where rownum = 1;
11 end;
12 /
   select t.*

Select values from table%ROWTYPE variable into a cursor

I have a stored procedure which has an OUT parameter of table1%ROWTYPE.
In future we might have to add more OUT parameters of table2%ROWTYPE etc. But at any point of time only one will have values.
So instead of having table%ROWTYPE as OUT parameter, can I send these single row ( with variable values) in a cursor, so that declaration part atleast will not change.
Is it possible to select values from table%ROWTYPE variable into a cursor.
cursorOUT IS
SELECT * FROM varREC;
where varREC is table.ROWTYPE variable.
Or which is the better solution in this situation.
Thanks.

Select count(*) from table in oracle 11g with direct path read takes time

select count(*) from table takes long time, even more than couple of hours..
direct path read is the wait event which is almost is at 99%..
can u someone provide some info on this.. on solution.. thankx

That 418 seconds - not the hours you reported earlier. Is it possible that your connection to the database broke ?
On a typical system, by the way, you can usually turn one direct read for tablescan into 1MB, so your scan seems to have covered about 59 GB, which seems to be in the right sort of ballpark for 130M rows.
we have another query and when we test the query execution using v$sql, is_bind_sensitive =N, how to make is_bind_sensitive=Y all the time.. There is a hint /*+ bind_aware */ - I'd have to check whether or not it's documented at present. It might help.
I would be interested in hearing why you think the hint should be bind sensitive when the optimizer doesn't.

Use variables in a SELECT INTO FROM command

Hi,
How do I use variables within a select into from command? I want to loop through SYS.DBA_TABLES using a cursor and count the number of rows in a
selection of tables an then insert into a cardinality table.
The count of rows will be stored in a variable called CNT, that bit is easy however I need a variable in the FROM clause because that
value changes with every iteration of the cursor.
e.g.
CNT := 0;
TN := "MyTable";
select count(*) into CNT FROM TN;
insert into cardinality (table_name, row_count) values (TN, CNT);
This is Oracle 9i and I need the row counts in a separate table as they are shipped over to a different environment for analysis purposes.
Any ideas?
Regards
Dave

Hi,
Thanks for the info, unfortunately I can get neither example to work on this 9i system, could well be pilot error as I only ever get
to do any Oracle about once per year. In the first query I have tried both "user_tables" and SYS.DBA_TABLES, same result.
set serveroutput on size 1000000;
DECLARE
row_count INTEGER;
vstr VARCHAR2(500);
vstr1 VARCHAR2(500);
BEGIN
vstr := 'SELECT count(*) FROM ';
dbms_output.put_line(vstr);
FOR i IN (SELECT table_name FROM user_tables WHERE rownum < 10) LOOP
vstr1 := vstr || i.table_name;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE vstr1
INTO row_count;
dbms_output.put_line(i.table_name || ':' || row_count);
END LOOP;
END;
This one complains about the execute immediate line.

How do I execute "Select count(*) from table " in OCI

Hi,
I am new to OCI and so this question may seem stupid. I would like to know how to execute the query "select count(*) from <table>" using OCI V8 functionality? Also after how do I get the result into a integer datatype? I have gone through most of the demo programs but is is of little help to me.
Thanks in advance...

Shubhayan.

Hi,
Here is sample code to give you some idea how to do it. If you want some more info let me know.
Pankaj
ub4 count;
// Prepare the statement.
char szQry = "SELECT count() FROM T1";
if(OCI_ERROR == OCIStmtPrepare(pStmthp, pErrhp, (unsigned char*)szQry, strlen(szQry), OCI_NTV_SYNTAX , OCI_DEFAULT) )
     cout << "Error in OCIStmtPrepare" << endl;
     exit(1);
// Bind the output parameter.
OCIDefine *pDefnpp;
if(OCI_ERROR == OCIDefineByPos ( pStmthp, &pDefnpp, pErrhp, 1,
&count, sizeof(ub4), SQLT_INT,

Select data from table not in another table

Hi,
I want to select data from table A which is not in table B.
Currently I am doing:
select
snoA,
nameA,
dobA
from A
where snoA not in
(select snoB from A, B
where snoA = snoB
and nameA = nameB)
But above is very slow.
Can I do something like:
select
snoA,
nameA,
dobA
from A, B
where
EXCLUDE ( snoA = snoB and nameA = nameB)
Please note that I need the where condition on both the columns.
any help will be appreciated.
-- Harvey

What are the approximate data volumes in A and B?
What is "very slow"?
What version of Oracle?
What is the query plan?
Without knowing anything about your system, my first thought would be to see if a NOT EXISTS happened to be faster for your data
SELECT snoA,
       nameA,
       dobA
FROM a
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
      FROM b
     WHERE a.snoA = b.snoB
       AND a.nameA = b.nameB )Of course, I'm not sure why you are joining A & B in your NOT IN subquery. It would seem like you would just need a correlated subquery, i.e.
SELECT snoA,
       nameA,
       dobA
FROM a
WHERE snoA NOT IN (
    SELECT snoB
      FROM b
     WHERE a.snoA = b.snoB
       AND a.nameA = b.nameB )That should be more efficient than the original query. The NOT EXISTS version may or may not be more efficient than the NOT IN depending on data volumes.

Can a procedure select data from tables on other schemas?

Can a procedure select data from tables on other schemas?
If it is posible, which syntax should I use to identify the tables and schemas on the SELECT query?

Yes , it is possible..unless the current user has the right privileges on others' db objects schema.
Now , as regards the syntax....
1) The more descriptive way is to use the format ... <owner_schema>.<obj_name>.
2) If you have declared public synonyms of other schema's objects then you can refer to them as just <obj.name>.... but the <owner_schema>.<obj_name> is not wrong.
3) If the db objects reside on another database you must have declared a db link.... then the syntax is <owner_schema>.<obj_name>@<db_link_name>.

STARTED IT, BUT STILL NEED HELP -- INPUTTTING CHARACTERS FROM LOADED FILE INTO TABLE, SELECTING STRINGS FROM TABLE AND PLACING IN NEW TABLE, SAVING NEW TABLE TO SPREADSHEET FILE

I AM TRYING TO IMPORT CHARACTERS FROM A TAB DELIMITED FILE INTO A TABLE ON LABVIEW. ONCE THE DATA IS IN THE TABLE I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SELECT INDIVIDUAL STRINGS FROM THE TABLE AND PLACE IT IN A NEW TABLE. WHEN I CLICK ON A STRING I WOULD LIKE THE SELECTED STRING TO SHOW IN A TEXT BOX LABELED 'SELECTED STEP' AFTER ALL THE SELECTED STRINGS IS IN THE TABLE I WOULD LIKE TO SAVE THE NEW TABLE AS ANOTHER SPREADSHEET -- TAB DELIMITED -- FILE, MAKING IT ACCESSIBLE TO OPEN. HERE IS WHAT I HAVE SO FAR. I CAN INPUT DATA INTO THE TABLE, BUT I CAN ONLY TRANSFER ONE STRING INTO THE TABLE I WOULD LIKE TO BE TO INPUT MULTIPLE STRINGS. ALSO WHENEVER I TRY SAVING THE FILE, IT ALWAYS SAVES A UNKNOWN FILE, HOW CAN I GET IT TO SAVE AS A SPREADSHEET FILE. THANKING ALL OF YOU IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR HELP!!!!!!

Pondered,
The question you are asking is the same one that you asked in: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=132508#M132508, to which I supplied a revised version of the original vi you used (which was modified from the original one I supplied to an earlier thread). A couple of questions: 1) What does my latest not do that is in your question, 2) Why are you starting yet another thread about the same problem? We are here trying to help, it makes it a lot easier if you keep the same problem in the same thread, it reduces duplication of effort from those that might not have been following the previous thread(s). Those of us that don't have our "names in blue" are just doing this "for fun" (the blue names are NI employees, who may still be doing it "for fun"), and it makes it more fun if it doesn't seem (correctly or not) that our attempts are ignored. If an answer doesn't help, or seems incomplete, post a little more detail to the same thread so that the original respondent, or someone new, can provide more information, or understand your problem better.

Select into internal table

Hello abap-gurus,
I have a small problem when doing a select into an internal table. As i select and append into an internal table, the program dumps as there is not enough memory for the internal table. The SAP-table i'm selecting from is simply too big. So I'm wondering if there is a way to stop or set the max lines in the internal table to say 10000 rows? I would appreciate any example.. the statement looks like this:
SELECT * INTO l_bdcpv
FROM bdcpv
WHERE not process = 'X'
AND mestype = 'ISM_MATMAS'.
APPEND l_bdcpv TO i_bdcpv.
ENDSELECT.
Best regards Ballo

HI,
DATA: I_BDPCV LIKE BDPCV OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
SELECT * FROM BDPCV INTO I_BDPCV UP TO 100 ROWS WHERE PROCESS NE 'X' AND MESTYPE = 'ISM_MATMAS'.
APPEND I_BDPCV.
ENDSELECT.

Select statement from tables which have now been split

I used to select from 3 tables:
user, login, location
I would do:
select distinct user.id, login.computer_id, location.id as location_id
from user, login, location
where user.id = login.user_id
and login.location_id = location.id
and user.id = "manny"
but user has now been split into user1, and user2
I want to pull data where it exists from user1 or user2.
Much of the data in user1 is duplicated in user2 and vice versa, but I want to pull only one instance where it appears so that I can still get single row results of:
ID COMPUTER_ID LOCATION_ID
mannyd redstar_1 Bronx, NY
Any ideas on the query?

Why would you split a single table into multiple tables with the same structure and much of the same data? That seems rather counterproductive.
I suppose you could do something like
select user.id, login.computer_id, location.id as location_id
from user1 user, login, location
where user.id = login.user_id
and login.location_id = location.id
and user.id = 'manny'
UNION
select user.id, login.computer_id, location.id as location_id
from user2 user, login, location
where user.id = login.user_id
and login.location_id = location.id
and user.id = 'manny'but that's obviously going to be much more expensive than the single-table approach...

Select LONG_RAW from table.

I've got a table with a column of long_raw datatype.
Whenever I'm selecting data from that table it displays (blob)
I need to get the data out of the column through pl/SQL
1. why is it saying (blob) when the column is of long_raw datatype?
2.Can I select the content from a long_raw column and display it?
Regards,
Satrajit

you need to use the oracle built-in package UTL_RAW. here are some examples:
