I execute this statement :
Select keyart from article order by keyart desc;
and i got this result :

We can see that rows like VID- are between rows like VI- . It seems that order by doesn't take in charge the '-' Ok. But when i execute this statement :
select keyart from articles where keyart > 'VI-ZFI/GN' ;
-- VI-ZFI/GN is my bigger result in my first query
i got this result
KEYART
VID-WVBB10
VID-WVBL90

VID-WVLF93
VID-WV40
KEYART
VID-WV42
VID-WV80
VID-WV83
VID-WV95
In this cas it seems that order by take in charge the '-'!!!
How can i do to have have no row in my second select or that the 2 queries order the row the same?
Please help me , it's quite urgent ....
thanks a lot

Hi,
With the data provided by you,i created the same set of table with the values.Tried the same query,when sorting it considers '-' also and then only it sorts.For me the order was perferct with 'VID' values first and then 'VI' values.
when i issued the second query the values of 'VID' alone came .
i think something has gone wrong when the data has been feed.maybe u have entered the data in the lowercase and some values in uppercase.
For me with the same set of values it is working perfectly.

Prepared Statement with ORDER BY

I am trying to use order by with prepared statement but it is not ordering.
String sql = "SELECT * FROM MATERIAL WHERE (LOWER(NAMEE) LIKE ('%' || ? || '%') ORDER BY ? ";
PreparedStatement ps=CM.getStatement(sql);
ps.setString(1,p);
ps.setString(2,sort);
ResultSet r = ps.executeQuery();
Can any one tell me how do I use prepared statement with order by

You can not parameterize column names and such, only literals. You should build the ORDER BY clause dynamically.

Display the sql statement with arguments with ojdbc14_g.jar

Hi,
I'd like to display the sql statements with ojdbc14_g.jar.
So I've followed the documentation and set an OracleLog.properties file which is linked to my java program.
The problem is the trace generated is huge and I only need the SQL requests wich are made with the arguments but I don't know how to configure that.
Have you got a sample file which handle that ?
I've tried that :
oracle.jdbc.handlers=java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level=CONFIG
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter=java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter
oracle.level=INFO
oracle.jdbc.driver.level=OFF
oracle.jdbc.driver.OraclePreparedStatement.level=OFF
oracle.jdbc.pool.level=OFF
oracle.jdbc.util.level=OFF
oracle.sql.level=INFO
But that doesn't display only the SQL and args :(
Regards.

The fact is the statement are made by ejb entities on JBoss so I don't have a way to make specific logger to display the sql order. The only thing I can do is to set the log4j org.jboss.ejb.plugins.cmp to a trace level in order to see the sql order but without the arguments.
I tried those traces however I see stuff like that without any SQL orders :

SQL-Statement with OO4O

Hello together,
I post this Question here in
Re: SQL-Statement with OO4O
and i should paste my question again in an another database forum.
now here again:
I have here following Problem:
Everthime I make a connection to my database with this code
Set oSess = Server.CreateObject("OracleInProcServer.XOraSession")
Set oDB = oSess.DbOpenDatabase(tnsname, user/PWD, 4)
I get always this Statement in the DB-queue
SELECT parameter, VALUE
FROM SYS.nls_database_parameters
WHERE parameter IN ('NLS_CHARACTERSET', 'NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET')
Can me anyone tell me why I get this statement and how I can disable it?
Best Regards
Andy

Hi,
What can you do/change?I must ask next week my boss when he is back,
what kind of changes I can do.
Can you add a PL/SQL call to DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO into application?my boss must give me the permission to do a call to DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO.
A way to identify the source of the badly behaving code is required; whether that be within the DB or external of it.I think so too.
So please wait, until I have talk with my boss, than I will give you the answer you want. Sorry.
Any other ideas, what I can do without call/changes on the database to find the problem?
Best Regards
Andy

Please help me why it is not displaying like it. and how to make the statement to display like the second case. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Uraja

The column datatype that you are selecting is not of NUMBER datatype(might be char or varchar2) hence you are getting such result set.
And for this purpose, it is recommended to set datatype of a column appropriately.
For now you can add TO_NUMBER function to column in ORDER BY clause, only if it has data of number type.

Pl/sql statement with output in reports

Hello,
I am quite new to reports and pl/sql, i have built a pl/sql statement with some loops that works fine when running it in sqlplus.
I would really like to have this running in reports with the variables (v_year, v_month and v_sumvalue) in a table/record in the data view, so i can use them just like any ordinary fields in a table for example in a diagram.
I have tried to create a package spec, setting up a record with the variables as fields. And then a pl/sql function with the following sql (which was a bit modified to work in the pl/sql function). Everything seemed to work since the pl/sql table/record was there with the variables as fields in it, but it never returned anything... just fatal error.
Here is the original pl/sql statement which is working in sqlplus, any help/directions in how to get this working so i can use the variables like fileds in a regular table would be fantastic:
DECLARE
   v_year number(4);
   v_month number(2);
   v_sumvalue number(9,3);
   v_sta varchar2(10);
   v_end varchar2(10);
   v_stopmonth number(2);
BEGIN
   --## Get last 5 years ##--
   select
      to_char(add_months(sysdate,-60),'YYYY'),
      to_char(sysdate,'MM')
      into v_year, v_stopmonth
   from
      dual;
   --dbms_output.put_line(v_year);
   --## Loop 5 years ##--
   for i in 1..5 loop
      v_year := v_year + 1;
      --dbms_output.put_line(v_year);
      --## Loop 12 times (months) ##--
      for k in 0..11 loop
         v_month := k +1;
         --dbms_output.put_line(v_year ||'-'|| v_month);
         select
            sum(nvl(p.value,0)) / 3,
            last_day(add_months(to_date(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||'-01','YYYY-MM-DD'),-3))+1,
            last_day(to_date(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||'-01','YYYY-MM-DD'))
            into v_sumvalue, v_sta, v_end
         from
            project p
         where
            p.country_code = 'SWE'
         and
            p.project_type_code = 'P'
         and
            p.start_date between last_day(add_months(to_date(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||'-01','YYYY-MM-DD'),-3))+1 and last_day(to_date(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||'-01','YYYY-MM-DD'))
         and
            p.q_category_code between 1000 and 1299
         and
            p.geography_code between 2100 and 2199;
         dbms_output.put_line(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||' '|| v_sumvalue);
         --dbms_output.put_line(v_year ||'-'|| v_month ||' '|| v_sumvalue ||' '|| v_sta ||' '|| v_end);
      --## Stop monthloop ##--

i like to have a SQL statement with a dynamic tablename. Is this possible? If yes, how?
should be something like "select * from <mytablename>"
Thank you
Herbert

Yes this is possible. use the below reference code for this.
data: g_tablename type w_tabname,
gv_dref TYPE REF TO data.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <g_itab> TYPE STANDARD TABLE.
gv_tabname = p_tablename (take table name form selection screen or as per ur requirement)
CREATE DATA gv_dref TYPE TABLE OF (g_tabname).
ASSIGN gv_dref->* TO <g_itab>.
now use the below select query to fetch the data
SELECT * FROM (gv_tabname) INTO TABLE <g_itab>.
Hope this will help

SQL statement with union clause

Hi,
I have a scenario where i need to generate a sql statement with UNION .
Eg:
SELECT B.YY_ID,
FROM XXXX.YY B
WHERE (B.YY_TY= 'as')
UNION
SELECT B.YY_ID
FROM XXXX.YY_ALT_NAME A, XXXX.YY B
WHERE (A.YY_TY= 'zx'
AND (B.YY_ID=A.YY_ID)"
I tried ns1:table1() union ns3:table2() in XQuery.
But it is pushdown as 2 seperate sqls.
Is it possible to create XQuery that pushdown as SINGLE SQL statement with union clause ?
Thanks

No. See 3.1.1.5 in the document I referenced in your previous post.

ABAP/4 Open SQL statement with WHERE ... LIKE and pattern too long

Dear All,
I am getting an error "ABAP/4 Open SQL statement with WHERE ... LIKE and pattern too long" while executing the following statement:
CLEAR LS_RANGE.
LS_RANGE-SIGN     = 'I'
+LS_RANGE-OPTION     = 'CP'     +
LS_RANGE-LOW     = 'S_ADMI_FCD'
LS_RANGE-HIGH     = 'S_ADMI_FCD'
COLLECT LS_RANGE INTO LT_RANGE.
SELECT *
           FROM UST12
           INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE LT_OBJECT_VALUES
           WHERE FIELD IN LT_RANGE
           AND AKTPS   = 'A'.
For options like BT(Between), EQ(Equal) in range table, this above query is executing without dump. But for option CP, it simply dumps & in dump what i found is, it is concatenating the value in low & high.
Does anyone have any idea regarding open sql using range tables.
Thanks,
Bhupinder

Hi,
I commented as follows:
If LS_RANGE-HIGH is empty, you can use EQ, NE, GT, LE, LT,CP, and NP. These operators are the same as those that are used for logical expressions. Yet operators CP and NP do not have the full functional scope they have in normal logical expressions. They are only allowed if wildcards ( '*' or '+' ) are used in the input fields. If wildcards are entered on the selection screen, the system automatically uses the operator CP.
If LS_RANGE-HIGH is filled, you can use BT (BeTween) and NB (Not Between). These operators correspond to BETWEEN and NOT BETWEEN that you use when you check if a field belongs to a range. You cannot use wildcard characters.
You can try:
CLEAR LS_RANGE.
LS_RANGE-SIGN = 'I'.
+LS_RANGE-OPTION = 'CP' +
LS_RANGE-LOW = 'S_ADMI_FCD'.
LS_RANGE-HIGH = 'S_ADMI_FCD'.
FIND '*' IN LS_RANGE.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
LS_RANGE-OPTION = 'CP'.
ELSE.
LS_RANGE-OPTION = 'EQ'.
ENDIF.
COLLECT LS_RANGE INTO LT_RANGE.
SELECT *
FROM UST12
INTO CORRESPONDING FIELDS OF TABLE LT_OBJECT_VALUES
WHERE FIELD IN LT_RANGE
AND AKTPS = 'A'.
If you use wildcards the LS_RANGE length should not exceed 10 characters.
Hope this information is help to you.

José

How to Run SQL Tuning Advisor on the SQL statement with SQL_ID?

Can you give the steps to run the SQL tuning advisor on the SQL statement with SQL_ID?

Query with order by clause

Hi,
I found a query with order by clause in procedure which is taking long time.
Stats are upto date.
Total Rows :650000.
It is ordered by primary key column.
select * from table_name order by col1;
col1 is a primary key.No of cpu's used is 4.
can anyone suggest me a better solution to improve the performance of a query.
Is it better to use parallel hint for above scenario.
Any help really apprecaited.
Thanks in advance.

Case statement in order by clause

Hi,
I have written the below query which is having CASE statement in ORDER BY clause. Please let me know what mistake i have done in the query because am getting "Missing Keyword" Error.
SELECT opn_quest_id, seq_nbr
FROM opinion_question
order by case when :p=1 then
opn_quest_id,seq_nbr
else
opn_quest_id
end;
Thanks,
Santhosh.S

Try Ignore the following solution.
SELECT   opn_quest_id, seq_nbr
FROM   opinion_question
ORDER BY   CASE
WHEN : p = 1 THEN opn_quest_id || seq_nbr
ELSE opn_quest_id
END;
What are the data type of the corresponding columns used in the CASE Statement? I have assumed it to be strings.

Default where with order by clause

Hi all
How to use Default where with order by clause
for example i want to use Default_where clause with order by clause
Regards
Shahzaib ismail

Hi,
I have a similar query for where clause.
my query-find form is a multi record form like below:
Criteria - Condition - Value
Item/Category/Planner (List_Item) - Equals/Among (List_Item) - text_FIELD
Item - Equals - ITEM_1
Category - Among - ('CAT1', 'CAT2')
Planner - Equals - PL1
Find_BUTTON Clear_BUTTON
User can select any criteria and condition combination and then enter the value in "Value" text field.
My query is: how can I prepare a where clause based on user input since the user can enter any number of values/combinations? I guess I would have to use some looping to generate where clause.
Thanks
Imran
