Spooling Extracts from Multiple SQL statements in 1 File

Hi all,
I am trying to spool extract results of 3 separate SQL statements into one single file. I wrote a SQL block similar to the one below. However, the result of the statements overwrite each other: 3 overwrote 2 and overwrote 1. Any suggestion how to combined there extracted results in one file?
spool c:\test.txt
<SQL statement 1>
<SQL statement 2>
<SQL statement 3>
/spool OFF
Thanks in advance
Jason

Please paste you SQL file here. These is no way one should overwrite another.

How to export the result from executing sql statement to excel file ?

HI all,
Great with Oracle SQL Developer, but I have have a trouble as follwing :
I want to export the result from executing sql statement to excel file . I do easily like that in TOAD ,
anyone can help me to do that ? Thanks so much
Sigmasvn

Hello Sue,
I just tried to export to excel with the esdev extension and got java.lang.NumberFormatException. I found the workaround at Re: Windows Multi-language env, - how do I set English for application lang?
open the file sqldeveloper\jdev\bin\sqldeveloper.conf and add the following two lines:
AddVMOption -Duser.language=en
AddVMOption -Duser.country=USyet now my date formats in excel are 'american-style' instead of german. For example 01-DEC-01 so excel does not recognize it as date and therefore I can not simply change the format.
When export to excel will be native to 1.1 perhaps someone can have a look at this 'feature'

How to seperate multiple SQL statements in Init SQL text box ?
For example, I want to enter following two SQL statements. How do I seperate them.
I tested with / and ; as seperator, but did not worked..
alter session set nls_date_format = 'MM/DD/YYYY'
set role xxx_role identified by xxxx

Thanks Joe.
Following worked for Oracle 8.1.7Good news.
but did not for 8.0.6
SQL BEGIN EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET nls_date_format = ''MM/DD/YYYY''';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'SET ROLE xxx identified xxx'; end;
Do you know 8.0.6 syntax ?You might try asking oracle, but note that no one is supporting that old version
of Oracle any longer...

MahendraHi. The full string you should enter into the console when you define

alter session set nls_date_format = 'MM/DD/YYYY'
set role xxx_role identified by xxxxThis will always be DBMS-specific. If this is for oracle, you can
try:
"SQL BEGIN alter session set nls_date_format = 'MM/DD/YYYY'; setrole

Excuting multiple sql statements

Hi to everybody.
I'm quite new to Oracle even if i have quite a big experience with MySQL and SQL commands. I'm facing a problem that I suppose it is a really basic one.
I received a dump of an Oracle database in a .sql format. I mean that both the schema and the data are build through a large number of sql statements. In particular the schema is made through a lot of "create table ..." while the data are built through "insert into..". My need is to import these database in a fresh Oracle database Oracle 10 g XE.
I've installed it on a Debian system and i can succesfully execute a single SQL command both through the web interface http://localhost:8080/apex and logging as oracle user through the sqlplus username/passwd command.
My problem is that the data are split on about 12000 SQL "INSERT INTO.." so executing all of them one by one could be a little annoying :-)
<u>So I'm asking if there is a way to instruct Oracle to execute multiple SQL statements reading it from a file (like MySQL does for example).</u>
I' m considering to write a script to do it if there's no better way. I know that there're better way to dump databases in Oracle but I can change the .sql format since it is the only one that I got.

in SQL*Plus you can execute a SQL file with the start command or it's shorthand version @:SQL> start filename.sql
or
SQL> @filename.sql

Executing multiple SQL statements fails using ODBC

Executing multiple SQL statements will fail with error 'ORA-00911 invalid character' when connecting to an Oracle database using ODBC driver version 8.01.07.00.
When I use either my application or the Oracle ODBC Test client utility connecting using ODBC driver version 8.01.07.00 I can only get a single CALL statement (as shown below) to execute:
CALL BHInsert (TO_DATE('2003.07.23 10:04:28','YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS'),'BATCH_ID','1:CLS_FRENCHVANILLA-1','
','Event File
Name','\\KILLIANS\BATCHCTL\SampleDemo1\JOURNALS\1.evt','','AREA1','','','','','','1','','','','','',' ','');
When I try to execute the following string with multiple CALL statements (as shown below) it fails with the following error being returned - ORA-00911: invalid character
CALL BHInsert (TO_DATE('2003.07.23 10:04:28','YYYY.MM.DD HH24:MI:SS'),'BATCH_ID','1:CLS_FRENCHVANILLA-1','

Shepard','','AREA1',' ',' ','','','','1','','','','','',' ','');
I've tried adding a line feed in addition to the space at the end of each call but that doesn't seem to help. Also have tried unsuccessfully to change the seperator used between each call using various valid continuation characters.
Executing multiple CALL statements from within Oracle's SQL Worksheet connecting as the same user and password, as my application executes successfully. However when I try this from within the Oracle ODBC test client, it fails with the same ORA-00911 error that I'm seeing in my application.
I'm currently trying the more recent ODBC drivers, however any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you take the begin ... end block and run it using SQL*Plus?
I can't think of any documentation that would specifically answer this question. I'm sure if you read & absorbed the ODBC Programmers Reference (2000+ pages) you'd be able to find out, but I don't know of a quick way to find out.
You can enable SQL*Net tracing. There are a fair number of options for enabling this tracing-- http://tahiti.oracle.com has all the Oracle manuals online, which should give you enough info to configure exactly what you want.
I would suggest, however, that you look into more performant/ scalable alternatives rather than going too far down this path. A block with lots of SQL statements with literals isn't going to make your database happy even if you get it to work.

How to execute multiple SQL statements thru frontend?

With SQL Server database, you can execute multiple SQL statements.
Ex.
SQLCommand cmd = new SQLCommand();
cmd.CommandText = "SELECT * FROM EMP; SELECT * FROM DEPT";
cmd.ExecuteXXX();
Note that for SQL Server, ";" (semocolon) is used as a separator.
What separator is required for Oracle ? Or rather, can I execute multiple SQL statements against Oracle database (10g) ?
(Why I want to do it is a totally diff. subject !)
Thanks,
Ami.

Hello,
You could use an anonymous PL/SQL block to batch multiple statements.
If you want to use SELECT statements, you would open a REF CURSOR for each SELECT and return the REF CURSOR to your application. INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements can just be passed as is.
A simple REF CURSOR example might look like:
begin
open :v_refcursor1 for select * from emp;
open :v_refcursor2 for select * from dept;
end;Where v_refcursor1 and v_refcursor2 are parameters defined as a REF CURSOR type.
Hope that helps a bit...

CF8 cfquery multiple sql statements

In CF8, when I run a cfquery against MS SQL 2005 with
multiple SQL statements, the query return the result of the first
statement not the last one as in CF7. The following code snippet
will cause an error because myID doesn't exist in qry. I know I
should set a "result" variable to get the identity key in CF8 but
we have some sites deployed in CF7. Before all sites migrate to
CF8, I would like to have a way to use the same code for both CF7
and CF8 so I don't have to maintain two versions. BTW, I tried
three datasourcr drivers: "Microsoft SQL Server", "Other" with
JDBC, and "ODBC Socket" with SQL Native Client. All of them gave
the same result. Please help. Thanks.

Hi Alex Pai,
Coincidentally, someone just asked a similar question
here.
So you might try searching the forums first. The query in the other
thread is slightly different, but the answer is the same.
Totally unrelated to your problem, but for SQL 2000/2005 you
should use scope_identity(), not @@identity.

Multiple sql statements

Hey all
How do I create multiple sql statements? I know how to add a single line, but how do I efficiently insert multiple lines? Should I create a new string called "qry2" and then just add that to my executeUpdate statement?
//dbtest.jsp
String qry = "INSERT INTO item VALUES ('" postedItem "', '" stamp "');";
addStmt.executeUpdate(qry);

You can have a separate variable, or you can just reuse qry.
As a side note, I strongly recommend you use PreparedStatement rather than Statement, and use its "?" parameters for the values you're going to insert: qry = "INSERT INTO item VALUES(?, ?)";
qry.setString(1, postedItem);
qry.setTimestamp(2, stamp); // or setString, or whatever type is appropriate for stamp

Did you try to tkprof a 10053 trace ?
That is not going to show anything. 10053 traces are meant to be read as they are. tkprof is there to deal with 10046 traces.

How could I extract past executed SQL statement from dictionary ?

How could I extract the past executed SQL statement from dictionary ? (Is it possible from V$SQLTEXT or other dictionary table ?)

Hi,
You can find executed SQL in V$SQLAREA view (if it's still in memory). If it does'n't exist and you have AWR enabled you can query DBA_HIST_SQLTEXT table, but remember that the statistic information in AWR tables is filtered (1 out of 10).

As you know when taking snapshot oracle will capture only top sql statements and stored in AWR.
But can you please link(source) dba_hist_sqltext contain only 1 out of 10 filtered data?. In dba_hist_active_sess_history yes it contain 1 out of 10 sampled data.

My problem is: I can pipe this into a command-line sql
session but when
executing it from PHP it gives me a sql syntax error, running
the statements
separately does not preserve the needed context with the
foreign key
variables.
Second problem: how do I select the last inserted id in
MySQL; is there an
equivalent to @@IDENTITY?

There's no mysqli support on this server, phpMyAdmin has an
internal parser
that splits the queries and tries to handle delimiters in
strings, and then
uses mysql_unbuffered_query or mysql_query, so it seems that
using one of
these functions with multiple consecutive queries preserves
the context of
the previous query.
Using explode will split strings that contain a semicolon,
I'm now trying
to escape the semicolons in strings to avoid writing my own
parser, so far
I've been thinking about HEXing them, but hexing complete
input will
seriously hurt my ability to read the queries, the
alternative CONCAT('foo',
0x3b, 'bar') still isn't pretty.
Do you know if it's possible to embed hexed characters into
strings (without
introducing a semicolon)?
