SQL expression not working, newbie. Malformed?

Hi, I'm a newbie to CR. I've got a report that works which I want to add a SQL expression field to that returns the text from a column in one table when another column in that table is equal to the string result of concatenating the values of two columns from a different table.
This is my SQL expression. I'm using CR XI R2.
SELECT
    "Windows_Notes"."NOTES_61"
WHERE
    ("Windows_Notes"."KEY_61" = '"RMA_Detail"."RMANUM_52" + "RMA_Detail"."RMALIN_52"')
    AND ("Windows_Notes"."LINE_61" = '0000')
There are actually two WHERE clauses as you can see above. Anyway, this isn't returning any data even though I can see in SQL Server Management Studio that the data is there. Even if I get rid of the concatenation and use a static value that I know should work (like '8000002501'), I get no results. As soon as I insert this SQL expression field into the report, the whole page is just blank. If I remove it again, everything shows up like before.
Any hints or solutions? I just made my first report last night, so this may be a stupid question.
Thank you.

Thanks to you both for the performance tips. I got it working just before you guys answered with this line:
{Windows_Notes.KEY_61} = {RMA_Detail.RMANUM_52}+{RMA_Detail.RMALIN_52} and {Windows_Notes.LINE_61} = '0000'
And now I've run into yet another fun problem. This one may be more difficult to tackle. Sometimes there will be no rows returned from that query. If there is a result I am including a string in the report from Windows_Notes.NOTES_61 which just contains optional notes for RMA numbers in our company. (like a short description of the customer's problem)
Sometimes there are no notes entered. When this is the case, the report is no longer showing those RMAs, heh. How can I get it to just display nothing in the notes column but still show the rest of the fields when that query returns no rows?
I tried removing the previous code from the record selection forumula, then creating a formula field with the following:
if ({Windows_Notes.KEY_61} = {RMA_Detail.RMANUM_52}+{RMA_Detail.RMALIN_52} and {Windows_Notes.LINE_61} = '0000') then (
{Windows_Notes.NOTES_61}
And I insterted that formula field onto the report instead of the Windows_Notes.NOTES_61 database column directly. It didn't work. I'm not clever enough after one day's experience with Crystal Reports...

OBIEE - Filter SQL Expression Not Working At All - Shows SQL But Not Result

Im at my wits end for this
I have a report where I am using a filter with a simple SQL expression
cast ( timestampadd(SQL_TSI_YEAR, -1, Cast(Cast(DATE '@{pv_as_of_date}{2013-04-01}' AS CHAR) AS TIMESTAMP) ) as DATE)So an end user may input a date and this is passed into the filter via a variable
pv_as_of_date
This is defaulted to 2013-04-01
I want to subtract 1 year to make the end result
2012-04-01
When I run the report I am seeing two issues
1) When displaying the filter at the bottom, I see the full SQL code. Shouldnt this show the date returned? In this case shouldnt the filter show 2012-04-01?
2) The filter does not even work which is my bigger problem
I tested the above code in a column and I KNOW that the date is being returned as expected
But when I use the same SQL code in the filter then it doesnt work
Am I missing some special button some where to enable SQL expressions?
Any help immensely appreciated

Ok
So I was able to find an option "Protect Filter" that seemed to make a bit of difference and I got the date part working after using the above corrected code (thanks)
But now I want to add in the rest of my filter conditions and it does not seem to be liking it
Im trying to use this filter
'Acad ' || cast ( cast (substring ('@{pv_acad_year_desc}{Acad 2013/14}' , 6, 4) as integer) - 1 as char(4)) || '/' || cast ( cast (substring ('@{pv_acad_year_desc}{Acad 2013/14}' , 11, 2) as integer) - 1 as char(2))Im expecting the output to be in this case
Acad 2012/2013
When I test the above code in a column it works just fine, its just again in the filter that it isnt working

tnx,I haven't a clue.
As you have been advised in many of your posts, go study the documentation for whichever specific topic you are interested in.
For me to answer your questions, I would need to go get that documentation.
Then I would need to read that documentation.
Then I would need to write a forum post that interprets what I think I learned from that documentation.
It is so very much faster if YOU go do that instead of posting to a forum and expecting others to do it. You will remember what you study for a lot longer time if you teach yourself.

Force encryption on SQL Server not working?

Hello Everyone,
I'm running SQL Server 2008 64-bit. I've installed a self-signed cert on the box and set "Force Encryption" and restarted SQL server.
I setup a client machine to trust the authority of the cert installed on the server. When I connect to that SQL server from SSMS from a client machine and select the "encrypt connection" option in the client Connection properties, SSMS correctly complains
that the cert on the server does not match the computer name I asked to log into . This is because, although the cert is trusted, the dns name dos not match the CN in the cert <- Perfect, exactly what I am expecting.
When I connect to the same SQL server from the same client but UNCHECK "encrypt connection" on the client, I'm able to login. Considering I've checked the "Force Encryption" on the server, the server should have rejected the connection. Why not?

Hi all,
We are implementing a Merge Synchronization solution which involves three SQL Servers located on three Azure locations worldwide and one on-premises location. We need to secure communications between all servers. We are evaluating the encryption of all server
communications through SSL:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191192.aspx
When we configure one server (let’s call it server A) to accept only encrypted connections (with Force Encryption=Yes) we still can connect from other server (let’s call it server B) that do not have the certificate installed. We would expect the server
B to fail in the attempt of connect as server A should only accept encrypted communications and those should need the certificated to encrypt/decrypt everything (commands and data).
We have also review the following forum post that is very similar to this one:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/bde679d9-ff83-4fa7-b402-42e336a97106/force-encryption-on-sql-server-not-working
In all cases the Microsoft answer is:
“When the
Force Encryption option for the Database Engine is set to YES, all communications between client and server is encrypted no matter whether the “Encrypt
connection” option (such as from SSMS) is checked or not. You can check it using the following DMV statement”
When we run the provided DMV statement to check if encryption is enabled:
-- To check whether connections are encrypted between server and clients
SELECT encrypt_option
FROM sys.dm_exec_connections
We get “TRUE”. So theoretically encryption is enabled.
Then:
Why can we run SQL statements against server A from server B (with SSMS) without any certificate?
Are we wrong when we expect server A to refuse any client that do not have the right certificate?
How can server B, without any certificate, decrypt the data encrypted by server A?
Our intention is to encrypt all server in the same way so all of them will accept only encrypted communications. We are assuming that the Merge Agent will be able to communicate with the Publisher and the Subscriber through this encrypted environment. May
anyone please confirm ti?
Thanks for your help.

EM Database Express not working in RAC installation

I installed the Oracle 12cRAC , Standard editon ,version : Oracle Database 12c Release 12.1.0.1.0 - 64bit Production edition in Windows 2008 64 Bit .
Instance and RAC database is working fine is both host. After installation of the database (DBCA), it EM database express URL shows as

Insert SQL does not work properly when called using CALL

I have a stored procedure (TEST_SP) which is used to insert a record in this perticular case. The SQL statement is 2526 characters long. I'm using
dim Params : Params=chr(1) & "Insert query" & Chr(1) & "=300"
runsql=&"{call TEST_SP(?,?)}"&Params

dbExecSQL db,runsqlto execute the stored procedure. I'm facing an issue when the 2000th character on the insert SQL (pUPDSQL) is a single quote, where the SQL is not getting executed (i.e. record is not getting created).
The same stored procedure and the same SQL when run as below

Edited by: user10503747 on Sep 20, 2010 3:16 AMInstead of:
{code}
select key into v_KEY FROM try where v_value='Value' ;
{code}
perhaps you meant something like:
{code}
v_value := 'Value1';
select key into v_KEY FROM try where v_value=Value ; -- No quotes
{code}
Until you assign a vlue to a variable, like v_value, it is NULL, so your original statement was equivalent to
{code}
select KEY FROM try where NULL='Value' ;
{code}
In PL/SQL, a SELECT ... INTO statement must return exactly one row, or else you will get an error (either NO_DATA_FOUND or TOO_MANY_ROWS). This is different from SQL, where a query cn return any number of rows, including 0, without raising an error.

Airport Express not working with Comcast

I used to have AT&T and had my airport working well. Yesterday i changed to Comcast and my airport is not working the light stays yellow.. I tried resetting it but it didn't work.. I use it with my old Cisco router and its working. Whats wrong with my Airport Express? My computers are Windows 7

A solid amber light indicates that the AirPort Express has locked up....or it is defective.
Suggest you that try a Factory Default Reset as follows:
Pull the Express from power
Let it rest for a few minutes
Hold in the reset button and keep holding it for another 8-10 seconds while you plug the Express back in to power
Release the reset button after the hold period and allow 40-45 seconds to restart
The Express should display a slow, blinking amber light at this time
If you continue to see a solid amber light after a few tries with a Factory Default Reset, the Express has failed and it will need to be replaced.

SQL (Reverse) not working in Forms 6i

Hi:
Env 6i c/s 8i DB.
SELECT REVERSE ( '321' ) FROM DUAL works in SQL*Plus but does not accept the REVERSE function from within a Trigger. I could put the logic in a Package on the DB but I'd like to know why it does not work in F6i ?
Thanks
N.

Forms 6i uses an older version of PL/SQL than the database, so it does not recognize the newly introduced function. You will need to create a database function to call from the form.

SQL Code not working in Forms Developer?

Hi all,
I'm using Oracle 10g and I have th following code running on iSQL+ but not working on Forms and I got the following erro
The SQL code:

SQL tab not working in V2.1 EA1 for non-DBA users -- how to fix?

In v2.1 EA 1 the tab to show the SQL script (DDL) in the object browser is not working for non-DBA users. In the prior version, these users would see a message about DBMS_METADATA and then the message would indicate that an "internal generator" would be used to generate the DDL script. After that brief message the DDL would show up as expected. This doesn't seem to be the case in the newest version.
I issued the following two grants to a particular user which worked, but I am reluctant to issue the grants to "PUBLIC".
SQL> grant execute on DBMS_METADATA to XXXXX;
SQL> grant select_catalog_role to XXXXX;
So, my questions are:
1) Will the old functionality (that didn't require these privileges) be added to V2 at some point?
2) What security implications are there for issueing the above grants to PUBLIC?
NOTE: After granting execute on the DBMS_METADATA package, it still didn't work. I left that grant in place and granted SELECT_CATAOG_ROLE, so I can't say for sure that the 1st grant was required.

An OEM account is separate from the database account. You need to use OEM UI to create an OEM account, however, for certain tasks to be done in the databases which OEM is monitoring they will also require separate database accounts within those databases. For example, to view the performance tab in OEM UI, a database account is required.
OEM only has two types of users, i.e. Super Administrator and Administrator, but don't go by the names. You can grant an OEM 'Administrator' account access to specific targets and what they can do within OEM, such as only viewing reports, targets, and so on. For access within a database, the user created need not be a DBA either.
I hope you understand.

SQL expression not working, newbie. Malformed?
