Select statement without into

Hi ,
I am currently working with a include which is already written. The include has a select statement where the into clause is not available.
SELECT SINGLE * FROM cnvmbtrename
        WHERE packid    = p_pack
          AND domname   = space
          AND param     = gc_rfcdest
          AND value_old = ls_rename1-value_old
          AND value_new = ls_rename1-value_new.
This statement works fine when it is sued in some other program, but i does not work in mine. Can someone help me on this front.
Regards,
Rishav

Hi
U make sure all global data are defined in your program too, so:
- Database table:
TABLES cnvmbtrename.
- Selection screen (I suppose):
PARAMETERS: P_PACK....
- Data:
DATA: gc_rfcdest

Using temporary tablespace for sort in select statement without spacifying

how can i use some particular temporary tablespace in select statement for sording without allocating any temporary tablespace to that user

Try to set for the current session the in memory sorting space to 0 before running your query:
SQL> alter session set sort_area_size = 0;The query should use the temporary tablespace.

How to pull only column names from a SELECT query without running it

How to pull only column names from a SELECT statement without executing it? It seems there is getMetaData() in Java to pull the column names while sql is being prepared and before it gets executed. I need to get the columns whether we run the sql or not.

Maybe something like this is what you are looking for or at least will give you some ideas.

Query regarding Oracle SQL select statement

Hi,
How does Oracle ensures a consistent snapshot with the select statement
without locking the table. My question is summarized with an example below:
1. At time T1, Oracle select statement is fired and is fetching the result.
2. At time T2, some DML operation is performed on the same table on which
the select was executed and a commit was fired.
3. At time T3, The Oracle select statement (Step 1) completes.
My question is whether the records of transaction at time T2 will be visible at time T3 or not?
If "not", then does it mean that Oracle retrieves the rows from the time of last commit.
I would also like to know if for the above mechanism, Oracle would make use of the rollback segemt to access the rows at a particular instant of time.
TIA
Regards,
Raj

This is called Read Consistency in the oracle. Its all about SCN before starting the transaction.
Lets say
1. T1 executs SELECT statement on EMP table.
2. T2 made an update on the EMP and commited.
But, T1 only still sees only old image of the data not the new one. This is called read consistency.
You will be having two images in the buffer, one is consistent and changed image.
When the T1 give SELECT statement it notes the SCN of the transaction. Read oracle document about read consistency.

Three select statement data in to One Internal table

HI All,
      By using 3 select statement, data is displying by using work area (classical report). Now i want define three internal table for three select statements, and finally get the data in one final itab, and pass this to function module (ALV Report).
looking for response

hi,
just go through this simple example. no need of declaring 3 itabs.
data: begin of st1,
        a1 type c,
        a11 type i,
      end of st1.
data: begin of st2,
        a2 type i,

      end of st2.
data: begin of st3,
        a3 type i,
        a33 type i,
      end of st3.
data: begin of fin_struct.
          include structure st1.
          include structure st2.
          include structure st3.
data: end of fin_struct.
data: fin_itab like table of fin_struct with header line.
*1st structure values
move 'a' to fin_itab-a1.
move 1 to fin_itab-a11.
*2nd structure values

endloop.
here structre1,2,3...
i used move statement.
here u write select statement.. into struct1,2,3....
using move u move all the values ...
finally append it to final itab...

Select Statement Hangs often

Hello ,
I have very strange issue, Any select statement on few tables takes very long time( in fact it hangs) often but the same SQL runs in a second all other times in the same database. Please note that it is a simple select statement without any 'for update' clause.
After recycling the database, the select statement runs faster but this situation comes back after couple of days on the same set of tables.
We are using 9i release 2.
Can you please advise how to go about solving this type of issue.
Thanks.

438628, Robert is correct in that the board would need to see an explain plan to have any chance of narrowing the problem down. If bind variable peeking is involved the plan may not match what Oracle is actually doing to solve the query.
When the problem occurs try looking in v$plan_table and see if the plan matches the explain plan output. A difference would be a clue that a reparse of sometype is being done so the plan could be different for each execution. The presence of child cursors would also point to something causing reparses.
Do any of the columns for this table involved in the where clause has histograms on them? What is the value of the spfile/init.ora parameter cursor_sharing?
If cursor_sharing is EXACT then bind variable peeking should not be the problem. If the parameter is SIMILAR or FORCE then it could be. On 9.2 I believe there is a bug that causes a reparse for every execution when SIMILAR is used so evey execution could be a different plan.
To check for skewed data just count the values in the column and then count by value. If the max(value_count) / count(*) is greater than a small percentage of the data then the column is skewed. The worse the skew the more likely that a plan chosen for a distinctive value is not a good plan for a non-distinctive value.

DOCUMENTING SELECT STATEMENT

Hi All,
I been working with databases (ORACLE, MSSQLSERVER, SQLANYWARE) for last couple of years. SELECT statement comes into picture very frequently.
But yet I am unable to find any template, tool or hint to document the SELECT statement, so that other developers can understand its flow and relationships among source files. Every time a source given to developer (other than who actually write it) with SELECT statement, it takes long time to understand.
Any hint/help would be highly appreciated.
Regards.

For 90-some percent of the SQL statements you're likely to come across, this would seem to be an issue of developer training rather than of documentation. If your developers are accostomed to thinking in terms of set-based processing rather than procedural-based programming, the structure of a SQL statement ought to be rather self-explanatory. If there are a lot of DECODE statements or the SQL statement is doing something unusual, putting an explanatory comment nearby might be helpful.
Of course, this assumes that the developers are reasonably familiar with the data model of the underlying tables. If not, make sure they have the necessary ERD(s) and other documentation.

Need to create a transaction for multiple select statements?

Hello,
I am a newbie and have a question about database transaction, e.g. whether/not to enclose multiple select statements (and select statements only) into a transaction.
My database is set to transaction isolation level 2: REPEATABLE READ, where dirty read & non-repeatable read are not allowed, only phantom read is allowed.
Now, in my code I have a number of methods that only contain select statements only. Since they are merely select statements, which don't do any modifications to the data, I am not sure if I am supposed to enclose them into a transaction.
However, if I don't put them into a transaction will the transaction isolation level takes into effect automatically when another user is modifying the data that I am reading? In other words, I need to make sure the select statements will never do either dirty read or non-repeatable read. But I am not sure if it is necessary to enclose multiple select statements in a transaction, since I believe putting the select statements into a transaction will put some locks to the data being read which may reduce the concurrency of my application.
Any help/advice would be very much appreciated.
Duane

You might want to try asking this on a forum that specific to your database. I suspect the answer can vary depending on the database and probably requires in depth knowledge of what the database does.

Table or view does not exists error while executing select statement

Hi,
I am new to Oracle. I am getting a error while executing the select statement if i give table name without double quotes.
Ex: Select * from Customer;
But working fine when the table name is enclosed within a double quotes.
Ex: Select * from "Customer";
Is there any way to execute the select statement without the double quotes?
Actually I am using NHibernate objects for data access.
Thanks,
Sai

Actually I am using NHibernate objects for data access.And probably that's the problem:
SQL> select * from mytab;
         A
         1
SQL> select * from mYtAb;
         A
         1
SQL> select * from MYTAB;
         A
         1
SQL> select * from MYTAb;
         A
         1Oracle statements are case insensitive and doesn't require double quotes unless the object names are reserved words.
As wrote by others if table is created using double quotes it's name bacomes case-sensitive... and this could be the problem...

Help with a simple select statement

$x = oci_parse($c, "select quantity from balance where item_num=101");
oci_execute($x);
echo "the quant is: ".$x;
I try to run this select statement without success
then I tried...
$x = oci_parse($c, "select quantity from balance where item_num=101");
$y= oci_execute($x);
echo "the quant is: ".$y;
and it didn't work either...
What should I change?
thanks!

The Oracle library operates a bit differently from some other PHP libraries, notably MySQL/MySQLi. With Oracle (OCI8), you have to execute the statement, and then afterward use an oci_fetch...() function to pull things from your $statement variable. Here's a small example that hopefully will illustrate the basic usage:
<?php
     $conn = oci_connect('hr','hr','xe');
     if(!$conn) {
          echo 'Could not connect!';
          exit;
     $sql = 'select * from jobs';
     $stmt = oci_parse($conn, $sql);
     if(!$stmt) {
          echo 'Could not parse query.';
          exit;
     $result = oci_execute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT);
     if(!$result) {
          echo 'Could not execute query.';
          exit;
     echo "Query ran successfully.\n";
     // Fetch rows as associative arrays, so
     // we can ask for values by column name.
     // Other options include oci_fetch_row(),
     // oci_fetch_array(), and oci_fetch_object().
     // Note that oci_fetch_assoc() will create
     // an associative array using upper-case
     // column names for the keys.
     while(($row = oci_fetch_assoc($stmt)) != null)
          echo $row['JOB_ID'] . ': ' . $row['JOB_TITLE'] . "\n";
     echo "All data returned.\n";
     oci_close($conn);
?>When I run this, I get the following:
C:\workspace\php>php select.php
Query ran successfully.

Disable logging of SELECT statements

I would like to disable the logging of SELECT statements without disabling the logging of other SQL. From what I can see in the documentation, I am limited to a level of all SQL or no SQL.
Reasoning: There are 100X as many SELECT statements as INSERT or UPDATE generated by TopLink for my app, and it bloats my log files enormously. I use the INSERT / UPDATE statements for debugging from time to time so I still want to log them, but the SELECTS are never useful.
Can I define some custom logger class that handles this?
Thanks,
Stucco

You could write your own SessionLog subclass for this. You would need to overwrite the log method and search the SessionLogEntry message for SELECT and ignore the message.

Getting Username to pass into LOV select statement

Hello!
I'm wondering if its possible to get the username of the current user logged in and pass it as a variable into a select statement used in a dynamic LOV in Oracle AS Portal?
What I'm attempting to do is pull all the values from a table that equal the current user's username to user on a portal report
so (as a rough example)
select color from mytable where username = 'whatever the user name is would be here'
And then the current user would get a list of values from which to select based off of the values entered in this table.
The issue I'm having is determing how to fill the 'whatever the user name is would be here' portion with the actual logged in user's username (or even if its possible). I know on the actual portal one can do #USER.FULLNAME# to display their username, is there a similar "variable" one may use to get the username for a LOV sql call?
I can get it to work if I statically fix the username to a particular value (ex: where username = 'Joe.Hacker') but I'm unsure if theres a variable or bind value (for lack of a better term) to grab the username on the fly.. dynamically.

portal.wwctx_api.get_user can be used in the SQL query of your portal report to get the user_name of the currently logged-in portal user. For more info on wwctx_api, see the 10.1.2 or 10.1.4 portal API docs at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/plsqldoc/pldoc1012/index.html or http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/plsqldoc/pldoc1014/index.html

i think you should have placed your SELECT statement in a cursor variables since you
are using a date range instead of the INTO clause. this is to avoid too many rows error.
DECLARE
Cursor c1(pStartDate Date, pEndDate Date) Is
    SELECT t.SEC_SHORT_NAME,
