Single query to get data from different databases

i need to capture certain fields from certain tables in database 1 and certain fields from certain tables in database 2 into one file using a single SQL statement.
i tried searching on the net
i found that dblinks can help
but iam not sure if ill be able to create dblinks in my situation which is:
i need to get data from oracle to be copied to mysql
this is not a replication acitivity, but i need certain fields from one database and certain from the other
so what iwas thinking is, if i use an sql query to get all the fields (i need around 40) from the different oracle databases and create a singlefile with one insert per select, i can then read that file into mysql
instead of creating multiple sql queries for each table and creating separate files and eventually separate tables in mysql.
can anyone help me here?
or maybe suggest another approach.
thanks

Hi,
I think dblink is the only option available to get data from different databases. It will work for your case too.
CREATE DATABASE LINK db_link CONNECT TO user_name IDENTIFIED BY password USING 'instance_name'you must have the system privilege 'create database link' to create db links. This way you can get the required data and put it in a table in oracle. But i dont know how to put this data from oracle table to Mysql.

Data from different databases in the same report.

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to build a reconciliation report in which I need to show the data from the source and target, side by side.
Source and target are both different databases, although being oracle only
Whenever a new data model is created, it gets attached to a data source and in the report we need to choose a specific data model.
Can we have data from different databases in the same report ?

Yes, it is possible.
One way Is to use dataTemplates. There you can make queries from any number of different databases (The max I have done is 5).
It looks something like that:
<dataTemplate name="NameOfTemplate">
<dataQuery>
     <sqlStatement name="Q1" dataSourceRef="Connection1">
          <![CDATA[     select * from table1]]>
     </sqlStatement>
     <sqlStatement name="Q2" dataSourceRef="Connection2">
          <![CDATA[     select * from table2]]>
     </sqlStatement>
</dataQuery>
<dataStructure>
     <group name="RESULT1" source="Q1">
          <element name="P_FIRST_NAME" value="P_FIRST_NAME"/>
     </group>
     <group name="RESULT2" source="Q2">
          <element name="P_DATE" value="P_DATE"/>
     </group>
</dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>dataStructure is very important when you get data from different places, if you don't define those elements, then only the result from Q1 is shown.
The second possible way is to make as two different data models, each containing their own query and then set Main Data Set as concatenated SQL Data Source.
Best of luck,
Evelyn

Help needed to insert data from different database

Hi ,
I have a requirement where i need to fetch data from different database through database link .Depending on user request , the dblink needs to change and data from respective table from mentioned datbase has to be fetched and populated .Could i use execute immediate for this, would dblink work within execute immediate .If not , could pls let me know any other approach .

What does "the dblink needs to change" mean?
Are you trying to dynamically create database links at run-time? Or to point a query at one of a set of pre-established database links at run-time?
Are you sure that you really need to get the data from the remote database in real time? Could you use materialized views/ Streams/ etc to move the data from the remote databases to the local database? That tends to be far more robust.

Select data from different database

hi,
may I know how to select data from different database?
for example,
I've 2 databases, OracleDB and OracleAR
Connect with OracleAR in SQL*Plus
select * from OracleDB.TableName
does Oracle support this kind of query?
how can I retrieve data from other database while im connecting with
other database?

Hi,
Yes, it's possible. No, your syntax won't work.
First of all you have to define a DATABASE LINK inside the DB where you are already connected (in this case OracleAR). Read docs how to do that.
Second thing is the query. It will look like
SELECT * from TableName@<NameOfDatabaseLink>Greetings,
Guido

You're probably better off consulting the documentation for the DOS program you're trying to deal with than hoping someone here will be able to guess what program you're using, identify the structure of the files, and tell you how to extract the data into something Oracle can import.

Get data from two databases?

Hello all,
Do anyone know if it's posible to get data from two databases while I'm running SBO in one of them? I need this because our client wants to be able to print reports with all the information stored in both companies. I searched this forum trying to find if this is possible but I did't find any information about this.
Can someone help me?
Thanks and regards,
Mariana Mazzero

Hi Mariana,
What you can do is use two company objects to retrieve the data. As far as I know you're not restricted to one company connection.
You can also just use a standard read only connection (like ADO/ODBC) to retrieve the data for the reports.
Hope it helps,
Adele

Getting data from several database

I have more that one DB in different locations, but all of them have a same structure. now i want to get data from all of the DBs in a unique time and simultaneously. how i can do it?

If all the databases are Oracle then open your DBA Administration manual to Part VII Distributed Database Management.
These chapters will tell you how to create database links and how to design and manage remote and distributed transactions.
Also see the CREATE DATABASE LINK command in the SQL manual.
Once you have reviewed this material you can post back with specific questions or error messages you encounter while configuring the feature.
Basically you just need a tnsnames.ora entry on the database server for the remote database and then define a database link that references the tnsnames.ora entry. The documentation will show you the steps.

How to make this function module as RFC to get data from different system?

Hi
I am trying to use following function module . This function module is used to copy data from one cube to another cube within same system however I need a this should happen across two different system. How can I use this function module to make it remote call to different system and do the same function what it is doing ?
Name of function module -
RSDRT_INFOCUBE_DATA_COPY
Any help would be really helpful
AG

HI,
let us say you want to copy the data of a cube in system A to a cube in system B .
1) create a RFC function module in system B (in this function module call the function module RSDRI_CUBE_WRITE_PACKAGE to update the data), this RFC function module should have same parametersa as RSDRI_CUBE_WRITE_PACKAGE .
2) write a program in system A .. read the data from the infocube using the function module RSDRI_INFOPROV_READ and call the RFC function module in system B that you have created..
for the details of the parameters to pass to these two function modules use the RSDRT_INFOCUBE_DATA_COPY and get the required code
Thanks

Getting Data From MySQL Database using Dreamweaver CS4 Built In Functions

Hi,
I am really in need of some help if you don't mind.
I basically have a website with user regsitration system etc and so on.
I basically connected to my Data Base in Dreamweaver CS4 and now want to use the tools in Dremweaver CS4 to display Data from database.
Problem is i see the tools but not really sure how i use them. I see on Data bar all the tools to view, update delete records etc.
I basically created a page where i want to display all the records in the DB. I done this using dynamic data selecting what fields to display etc and 15 records per page.
When i view the page in localhost thou it is only showing 1 record althou i have like 5 users in my test db.
So if anyone can really tell me how i go about displaying data from db that be great. When i learn how to do that i probably will understand and learn how to update records etc.
Thanks

To display all records, you need to apply a repeat region to the paragraph, div, or table row that contains the dynamic text objects for the database results. You might also find it helpful to follow the dynamic application tutorial in the Adobe Developer Connection.

How to load data from different database

Hi,
My problem is how to load Foxpro 2.6/clipper data into oracle 8 with all its structure and data with SQL loader or other utility if any.
And also how can i integrate existing forpro system into Oracle. i.e client will work on Foxpro application and we will only take its output(data files) on daily basis and convert it into Oracle 8.
Please find any solution.
Regards
null

You can also try to make up an ODBC connection to Foxpro and convert the data from foxpro to oracle using the COPY command (see docs on PL/SQL & OCA). I remember that foxpro/clipper are running on MS-DOS, so I don't know if you can establish an ODBC connection to oracle which can be used from the foxpro/clipper application to use it as a frontend for an oracle database.

Need to get data from multiple database instances in a single query

Hi,
I need a small favour from you guys. The prob is as follows:
I need to get name, row_id from table A from schema 1 and gbu_name, name from table B from schema 2 where a.name = b.name. I wrote the query in the following manner:
SELECT a.name, a.row_id, b.gbu_name
FROM Schema1.A as a, Schema2.B as b
Where a.name = b.name
But this query is not working and the error is like " The table does not exists".
Please update me how to avoid the error and get the right sort of result.
Thanks & Regards,
Debabrata

Ah, youre actually asking different things.
In your topic title, you say youre running separate instances
In your body text, you say you are under different user/schema
So tell me, do you have more than one database or not? How many entries in your TNS file?
I would say, for "multiple database instances"
SELECT
a.id, b.id
FROM
tableA a
INNER JOIN
tableB@OTHER_DATABASE_LINK_NAME b <--NOTE!
USING(id)And of course you will have to look up CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK sql..
