Sql INSERT

Hello everybody !
I would like to know if the transaction of an INSERT sql command on a table with 1 record is lighter than the transaction of the same INSERT sql command on a table with 1 million records. In other words, I would like to know if the workload of the transaction of the INSERT sql command depends on the number of records in the table and, if yes, how much.
Thank you,
Ernest

Thank you Sven! One more question for you. You wrote
You can make an insert into a 1 Mill. table as fast
as an index on a 1 row table when you:
4) You have enough seqment/extent size left
Does this mean that the execution of the INSERT on a
1 million row table needs more resources(space on
disk, for instance) than the executing of the same
insert on 1 row table? If yes, how much ?No. What I ment was that there is some space allocated for the table. This is called the segment (initial extent). When you insert new records the empty space in this extent is used up. When the extent is full a new extent will be created. This takes time. You just have a little higher chance that the extent is (almost) full when you insert into a 1 mill. row table. Simply because you can be sure that the initial extent is big enough for a few more rows when only 1 row is inserted. (i hope I can make myself understandable). The used space is the same, the space allocated for future use may not be the same.
This is a dba topic, maybe better ask for clarification in the database-general forum.

How to resolve ORA-00001 Error in SQL Insert?

Hi all, I need your appreciated help.
I make a plsql procedure that is inserting a row according cursor value, I'm having oracle error ORA-00001: unique constraint (constraint_name) violated.
You may see this message if a duplicate entry exists at a different level: in RDBMS MySQL I have the syntax IGNORE to resolve this duplication error... and in Oracle ?
Thanks for your time and hints.

How to resolve ORA-00001 Error in SQL Insert?ORA-00001 means table has unique/primary key/index and you are trying to insert a row with key value that already exists in the table. I'll assume table COUNTRIES has primary key on COUNTRY_ID. Then change SQL to:
SQL = "INSERT INTO COUNTRIES(COUNTRY_ID,COUNTRY_NAME,REGION_ID) SELECT 'BZ','BLZ',3 FROM DUAL WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM COUNTRIES WHERE COUNTRY_ID = 'BZ')"There is a good chance table COUNTRIES also has unique key/index on COUNTRY_NAME. If so use:
SQL = "INSERT INTO COUNTRIES(COUNTRY_ID,COUNTRY_NAME,REGION_ID) SELECT 'BZ','BLZ',3 FROM DUAL WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT 1 FROM COUNTRIES WHERE COUNTRY_ID = 'BZ' OR COUNTRY_NAME = 'BLZ')"SY.

Apostrophe in a String bombs a SQL insert

I am having an issue with a Customer String parameter that is being used in a SQL INSERT. The customer name may from time to time have an apostrophe in it that causes our SQL INSERT to bomb on a missing comma error. I have tried to do this two separate ways:
1)
String query = "INSERT into CUSTOMER VALUES(" + account[0].custAcctNbr + ",'" + account[0].companyNm + "'," +
               "'IN',null," + salesPerson[0].salespersonID + "," + "null,null,null,null,null," +
               "null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null)";
This works until an apostrophe is in the companyNm varaiable.
2)
     PreparedStatement insertCustomer = bcc_conn_cust.prepareStatement(
     "INSERT into CUSTOMER VALUES(?,?,?,null,?,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null");
     insertCustomer.setInt(1,Integer.parseInt(account[0].custAcctNbr));
     insertCustomer.setString(2,account[0].companyNm);
     insertCustomer.setString(3,"IN");
     insertCustomer.setInt(4,salesPerson[0].salespersonID);
     insertCustomer.executeUpdate();
This also works when there is no apostrophe. However both bomb when it is present. Is there anyway to get around this, short of parsing a company name every single time we insert a new customer?

Do you have any idea why this is not working? yes, whatever driver you are using isn't implementing this properly.
variable I am using is a String variable, that has a
value of Bates' Brownies. According to all I read, it
seems I have used the Prepared Statement correctly but
it is giving me that missing comma error. I would
really rather not have to search every single company
name as it is entered.well unless you can either find another driver or fix the one you've
got i can't see what else you can do...
here is some code to help you along with that.
private String replaceQuotes(String toReplace){
StringBuffer buff = new StringBuffer(toReplace);
for(int i=0;i<buff.length();i++){
    if(buff.charAt(i)=='\''){
      buff.insert(i,'\'');
      i++;
return buff.toString();

How I can make SQL Insert file on schedule

Dear Community Members;
Hope all you will be perfect. I required your urgent response on my query. I want to make an SQL Insert file, means I want to insert data from query in one table and after that, the data export in an SQL file as a SQL Insert file.
All these things want to do on schedule not manually.
Can anyone help and guide me how I can do it?

Dear Members;
Actually, we are working on two different applications, like sale and account. Now we want to post sale information in account system without any DBLink, for that I want to make a file where my data store in SQL Insert Statement format on scheduling, means I want to create a procedure which create this file on scheduling. After that same as I want to create a procedure in other system for read that file and execute. Now I have been found Oracle functionality but still I am facing a problem. The problem is that my procedure create a file with a single record not the all fetched record. My Procedure is as:
DECLARE
fileHandler UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE;
INSERT1 VARCHAR2(200);
INSERT2 VARCHAR2(200);
cursor c1 is
    select T.QTY, T.SLIP_NO, T.STORE_NO, T.Item_Code
    from test t
    where T.STORE_NO = 1;
BEGIN
    for cur_rec in c1 loop
    INSERT1 := 'INSERT INTO TEST_2(Item_Code,STORE_NO,QTY,SLIP_NO) VALUES(';
    INSERT2 := INSERT1||CUR_REC.Item_Code||','||CUR_REC.STORE_NO||','||CUR_REC.QTY||','||CUR_REC.SLIP_NO||')' ;

Sql insert statement will fail if the data value has empty line

Hi,
I notice if the insert statement in my .sql file contains data that has new line (enter key), the insert will fail.
For example:
insert into mytable (message)
values ('this is the first line
this is the second line that will cause insert statement to fail
so as this third line');
commit;
How to overcome this?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Can you change this:
BETWEEN '01-Mar-2009'
AND '31-Mar-2009'To this:
BETWEEN TO_DATE('01-Mar-2009', 'DD-MON-YYYY')
AND TO_DATE('31-Mar-2009','DD-MON-YYYY')That may make no difference but you should never rely on implicit conversions like that, they're always likely to cause you nasty surprises.
If you're still getting the discrepancy, instead of and INSERT-SELECT, can you try a CREATE TABLE AS SELECT... just to see if you get the same result.

Jdbc sql insert to oracle DB.

Dear All,
I'm using the jdbc connector to insert data directly into an Oracle database table. I've got the SQL insert command which XI has generated by using the logSQLStatement parameter and I've proved the statement is good by pasting it directly into Toad where it is executed perfectly. However XI is throwing the following errors;-
Unable to execute statement for table or stored procedure. 'SI_ORDER' (Structure 'STATEMENT') due to java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected
MP: exception caught with cause com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error processing request in sax parser: Error when executing statement for table/stored proc. 'SI_ORDER' (structure 'STATEMENT'): java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found where a numeric was expected
Does anyone know what might be the problem or even where I should start to troubleshoot this?
Any help is much appreciated.
Pete.

Your question is how to load data from a text file into arrays?
Start with a
StreamReader to read the file one line at a time. Then break each line into individual values, and add each value to a
List<T>. Then call .ToArray() on each list to set the value of each array-bound parameter.

Export "SQL Insert" problem

Hello to everybody,
I'm using SQL Developer 1.0.0.15.57 in an Italian Windows XP Professional SP2.
I'm exporting a table as "SQL Insert" and I have the following problem: the exported INSERT instruction contains, i.e., 123,45 instead of 123.45 so, running the INSERT, Oracle 10 tells me too much values were given because
Value1, 123,45, Value2, ...
is wrong: it should be
Value1, 123.45, Value2, ...
I think this is a problem of the Internation settings (in Italy we use , as decimal separator instead of the . ). Does anybody know how to solve this?
For the moment I have changed my Internal Settings with USA and, after arestart, this is fixed. However now there is another less heavy problem: the dates are written in English like to_date('01-JAN-06', ... instead of to_date('01-GEN-06', ... but I can fix it with a search&replace function.
Thank you in advance
Andrea

Hello. I'm trying to find a solution for this too. In Venezuela we also use , as decimal separator. Has anybody found a solution for this? It is absolutly necesary to change the international settings of my pc?
Thanks!

Export as SQL INSERT generates dud SQL

When I attempted to export data from a table as SQL INSERT statements it generated the statements with single quotes around the table name:
SQL> Insert into 'JOHN_SMITH' values ('162142','89')
2 /
Insert into 'JOHN_SMITH' values ('162142','89')
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00903: invalid table name
SQL> Fortunately my text editor can do the necessary global replace :)
SQL> Insert into "JOHN_SMITH" values ('162142','89')
2 /
1 row created.
SQL> I am using Raptor #919
Cheers, APC

Wanted to clarify the table in insert - in the EA4 release, we will not wrap the table name in quotes at all, if you want to preserve multi-byte characters or mixed case table names, you need to wrap the table name in double quotes. We just removed the single quotes we had incorrectly put in. This makes it consistent with creating and modifying a table - i.e. you provide the quotes if you want them.

SQL Insert Error

I am trying to take data from a form and insert it into the mySQL db.
this is my update stuff:
s = "INSERT INTO users ";
s += " "(" id"," name"," email"," age"," gender"," zipcode"," username"," password")"";
s += " VALUES "("'"+name+"'"," '"+email+"'"," '"+age+"'"," '"+gender+"'"," '"+zipcode+"'"," '"+username+"'"," '"+password+"'")"";
PreparedStatement stmt = conn.prepareStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate(s);
out.write("Updating");
And then I get this error:
Ex-Message :Syntax error or access violation, message from server: "You have an error in your SQL syntax near '' at line 1" Ex-Code :1064 Ex-SQLState:42000 Ex-Next :null
Any ideas?

Your prepared statement should look something like this:
s = "INSERT INTO users ";
s += " (name, email, age, gender, zipcode, username, password)";
s += " VALUES (?,?,?,?,?,?,?)";
stmt.setString( 1, "value for name" );
stmt.setString( 2, "value for email" );
stmt.setInt( 3, 44);

...http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JDBC20Intro/JDBC20.html#JDBC207
Try to fill out the following value for name:
"(=enter)
UNION select 1 as 'one' --"
I am not sure if prepared statements take care of sql insertion

If it doesn't I would replace the ' with '' (1 single quote with 2 single quotes)

Use APEX API to export images as sql inserts

I was wondering if it is possible to export a custom table with images as sql insert statements, using the APEX API.

I've uploaded an image as a workspace image. When I click "display install file script" I get the following code:
begin
wwv_flow_api.g_varchar2_table := wwv_flow_api.empty_varchar2_table;
wwv_flow_api.g_varchar2_table(1) := '424D92000000000000003...   etc ;
wwv_flow_api.g_varchar2_table(2) := 'A800E9FE9800EAFE9800E...   etc ';
end;
declare
    l_name   varchar2(255);
begin
    l_name := 'B73.bmp';
wwv_flow_api.create_or_remove_file(
     p_name=> l_name,
     p_varchar2_table=> wwv_flow_api.g_varchar2_table,
     p_mimetype=> 'image/bmp',
     p_location=> 'WORKSPACE',
     p_nlang=> '0',
     p_mode=> 'CREATE_OR_REPLACE',
     p_type=> 'IMAGE');
end;
/How do I generate these strings to export my images.
