SQL MAX QUERY / SQL COUNT QUERY
Hi all,
i would like to get the value of the number of rows i have, but i dun seem to work it out with the getRow statements. i think the syntax of my statement is ok, but maybe i am doing the wrong way to get the value out.
I tried with COUNT, and it gives me the same error.
The error is: java.sql.SQLException: Column not found
This is the part of my code
Connection con;
String Q;
try{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:RFID Logistics");
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT MAX(Queue) FROM Forklift1");
while(rs.next())
Q = rs.getString("Queue");
System.out.println(Q);
catch(ClassNotFoundException f)
f.printStackTrace();
catch(SQLException f)
f.printStackTrace();
Thx alot in advance =)
Please use code tags when posting code. There is a code button above the message editor that inserts the tags.
Do you want to get the number of rows? If soConnection con;
int num = 0;
try{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:RFID Logistics");
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Forklift1");
while(rs.next())
num = rs.getInt(1);
System.out.println(num );
rs.close();
stmt.close();
catch(ClassNotFoundException f)
f.printStackTrace();
catch(SQLException f)
f.printStackTrace();
}This is untested, but should be close enough.

Oracle SQL and PL/SQL interview questions.
Can anyone forward me all Oracle SQL and PL/SQL Interview questions and answers asap.
Many Thanks.
BbaDear Pal
I not sure all the all answers are correct. I got one mail couple yrs back. I am just sharing mail contents. Kindly keep question and compare answers.
1 Which is more faster - IN or EXISTS?
EXISTS is more faster than IN because EXISTS returns a Boolean value whereas IN returns a value.
2 Which datatype is used for storing graphics and images?
LONG RAW data type is used for storing BLOB's (binary large objects).
3 When do you use WHERE clause and when do you use HAVING clause?
HAVING clause is used when you want to specify a condition for a group function and it is written after GROUP BY clause. The WHERE clause is used when you want to specify a condition for columns, single row functions except group functions and it is written before GROUP BY clause if it is used.
4 What WHERE CURRENT OF clause does in a cursor?
LOOPSELECT num_credits INTO v_numcredits FROM classesWHERE dept=123 and course=101;UPDATE studentsSET current_credits=current_credits+v_numcreditsWHERE CURRENT OF X;END LOOPCOMMIT;END;
5 What should be the return type for a cursor variable.Can we use a scalar data type as return type?
The return type for a cursor must be a record type.It can be declared explicitly as a user-defined or %ROWTYPE can be used. eg TYPE t_studentsref IS REF CURSOR RETURN students%ROWTYPE
6 What is use of a cursor variable? How it is defined?
A cursor variable is associated with different statements at run time, which can hold different values at run time. Static cursors can only be associated with one run time query. A cursor variable is reference type (like a pointer in C).Declaring a cursor variable:TYPE type_name IS REF CURSOR RETURN return_type type_name is the name of the reference type,return_type is a record type indicating the types of the select list that will eventually be returned by the cursor variable.
7 What is the purpose of a cluster?
Oracle does not allow a user to specifically locate tables, since that is a part of the function of the RDBMS. However, for the purpose of increasing performance, oracle allows a developer to create a CLUSTER. A CLUSTER provides a means for storing data from different tables together for faster retrieval than if the table placement were left to the RDBMS.

34 How you will avoid your query from using indexes?
SELECT * FROM emp
Where emp_no+' '=12345;
i.e you have to concatenate the column name with space within codes in the where condition.
SELECT /*+ FULL(a) */ ename, emp_no from emp
where emp_no=1234;
i.e using HINTS
35 How you will avoid duplicating records in a query?
By using DISTINCT
36 How you were passing cursor variables in PL/SQL 2.2?
In PL/SQL 2.2 cursor variables cannot be declared in a package.This is because the storage for a cursor variable has to be allocated using Pro*C or OCI with version 2.2, the only means of passing a cursor variable to a PL/SQL block is via bind variable or a procedure parameter.
37 How you open and close a cursor variable.Why it is required?
OPEN cursor variable FOR SELECT...Statement
CLOSE cursor variable In order to associate a cursor variable with a particular SELECT statement OPEN syntax is used. In order to free the resources used for the query CLOSE statement is used.
38 How will you delete duplicating rows from a base table?
delete from table_name where rowid not in (select max(rowid) from table group by duplicate_values_field_name); or
delete duplicate_values_field_name dv from table_name ta where rowid <(select min(rowid) from table_name tb where ta.dv=tb.dv);
39 How do you find the numbert of rows in a Table ?
A bad answer is count them (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table_name)
A good answer is :-
'By generating SQL to ANALYZE TABLE table_name COUNT STATISTICS by querying Oracle System Catalogues (e.g. USER_TABLES or ALL_TABLES).
The best answer is to refer to the utility which Oracle released which makes it unnecessary to do ANALYZE TABLE for each Table individually.
40 Find out nth highest salary from emp table
SELECT DISTINCT (a.sal) FROM EMP A WHERE &N = (SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT (b.sal)) FROM EMP B WHERE a.sal<=b.sal);

from emp;
the output like,
SAL (TO_CHAR(TO_DATE(SAL,'J'),'JSP'))
800 eight hundred
1600 one thousand six hundred
1250 one thousand two hundred fifty
If you want to add some text like, Rs. Three Thousand only.

44 Difference between procedure and function.
Functions are named PL/SQL blocks that return a value and can be called with arguments procedure a named block that can be called with parameter. A procedure all is a PL/SQL statement by itself, while a Function call is called as part of an expression.
45 Difference between NO DATA FOUND and %NOTFOUND
NO DATA FOUND is an exception raised only for the SELECT....INTO statements when the where clause of the querydoes not match any rows. When the where clause of the explicit cursor does not match any rows the %NOTFOUND attribute is set to TRUE instead.
46 Difference between database triggers and form triggers?
Data base trigger(DBT) fires when a DML operation is performed on a data base table. Form trigger(FT) Fires when user presses a key or navigates between fields on the screen
Can be row level or statement level No distinction between row level and statement level.
Can manipulate data stored in Oracle tables via SQL Can manipulate data in Oracle tables as well as variables in forms.
Can be fired from any session executing the triggering DML statements. Can be fired only from the form that define the trigger.
Can cause other database triggers to fire.Can cause other database triggers to fire, but not other form triggers.
47 Difference between an implicit & an explicit cursor.
PL/SQL declares a cursor implicitly for all SQL data manipulation statements, including quries that return only one row. However,queries that return more than one row you must declare an explicit cursor or use a cursor FOR loop.
Explicit cursor is a cursor in which the cursor name is explicitly assigned to a SELECT statement via the CURSOR...IS statement. An implicit cursor is used for all SQL statements Declare, Open, Fetch, Close. An explicit cursors are used to process multirow SELECT statements An implicit cursor is used to process INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE and single row SELECT. .INTO statements.
48 Can you use a commit statement within a database trigger?
No.
49 Can the default values be assigned to actual parameters?
Yes
50 Can cursor variables be stored in PL/SQL tables.If yes how. If not why?
No, a cursor variable points a row which cannot be stored in a two-dimensional PL/SQL table.
51 Can a primary key contain more than one columns?
Yes
52 Can a function take OUT parameters. If not why?
No. A function has to return a value,an OUT parameter cannot return a value.
53 What are various joins used while writing SUBQUERIES?
Self join-Its a join foreign key of a table references the same table. Outer Join--Its a join condition used where One can query all the rows of one of the tables in the join condition even though they don't satisfy the join condition.
Equi-join--Its a join condition that retrieves rows from one or more tables in which one or more columns in one table are equal to one or more columns in the second table.

34 How many types of database triggers can be specified on a table ? What are they ?
Insert Update Delete
Before Row o.k. o.k. o.k.
After Row o.k. o.k. o.k.
Before Statement o.k. o.k. o.k.
After Statement o.k. o.k. o.k.
If FOR EACH ROW clause is specified, then the trigger for each Row affected by the statement.
If WHEN clause is specified, the trigger fires according to the returned Boolean value.
35 Give the structure of the procedure ?
PROCEDURE name (parameter list.....)
is
local variable declarations
BEGIN
Executable statements.
Exception.
exception handlers
end;
36 Give the structure of the function ?
FUNCTION name (argument list .....) Return datatype is
local variable declarations
Begin
executable statements
Exception
execution handlers
End;
37 Explain the usage of WHERE CURRENT OF clause in cursors ?
WHERE CURRENT OF clause in an UPDATE,DELETE statement refers to the latest row fetched from a cursor.
Database Triggers
38 Explain the two type of Cursors ?
There are two types of cursors, Implicit Cursor and Explicit Cursor.
PL/SQL uses Implicit Cursors for queries.
User defined cursors are called Explicit Cursors. They can be declared and used.
39 Explain how procedures and functions are called in a PL/SQL block ?
Function is called as part of an expression.
sal := calculate_sal ('a822');
procedure is called as a PL/SQL statement
calculate_bonus ('A822');
Programmatic Constructs
Last Update: September 06, 2004
1 What are the different types of PL/SQL program units that can be defined and stored in ORACLE database ?
Procedures and Functions,Packages and Database Triggers.
2 What are the differences between Database Trigger and Integrity constraints ?
A declarative integrity constraint is a statement about the database that is always true. A constraint applies to existing data in the table and any statement that manipulates the table.
A trigger does not apply to data loaded before the definition of the trigger, therefore, it does not guarantee all data in a table conforms to the rules established by an associated trigger.
A trigger can be used to enforce transitional constraints where as a declarative integrity constraint cannot be used.
3 What is difference between Procedures and Functions ?
A Function returns a value to the caller where as a Procedure does not.
4 What is Database Trigger ?
A Database Trigger is procedure (set of SQL and PL/SQL statements) that is automatically executed as a result of an insert in,update to, or delete from a table.
5 What is a Procedure ?
A Procedure consist of a set of SQL and PL/SQL statements that are grouped together as a unit to solve a specific problem or perform a set of related tasks.
6 What is a Package ?
A Package is a collection of related procedures, functions, variables and other package constructs together as a unit in the database.
7 What are the uses of Database Trigger ?
Database triggers can be used to automatic data generation, audit data modifications, enforce complex Integrity constraints, and customize complex security authorizations.
8 What are the advantages of having a Package ?
Increased functionality (for example,global package variables can be declared and used by any proecdure in the package) and performance (for example all objects of the package are parsed compiled, and loaded into memory once)
1 With which function of summary item is the compute at options required?
percentage of total functions.
2 Why is it preferable to create a fewer no. of queries in the data model?
Because for each query, report has to open a separate cursor and has to rebind, execute and fetch data.
3 Why is a Where clause faster than a group filter or a format trigger?
Because, in a where clause the condition is applied during data retrieval than after retrieving the data.
4 Which parameter can be used to set read level consistency across multiple queries?
Read only.
5 Which of the two views should objects according to possession?
view by structure.
6 Which of the above methods is the faster method?
performing the calculation in the query is faster.
7 Where is the external query executed at the client or the server?
At the server.
8 Where is a procedure return in an external pl/sql library executed at the client or at the server?
At the client.
9 When do you use data parameter type?
When the value of a data parameter being passed to a called product is always the name of the record group defined in the current form. Data parameters are used to pass data to produts invoked with the run_product built-in subprogram.
10 When a form is invoked with call_form, Does oracle forms issues a save point?
Yes
11 What are the important difference between property clause and visual attributes?
Named visual attributes differ only font, color & pattern attributes, property clauses can contain this and any other properties. You can change the appearance of objects at run time by changing the named visual attributes programmatically , property clause assignments cannot be changed programmatically. When an object is inheriting from both a property clause and named visual attribute, the named visual attribute settings take precedence, and any visual attribute properties in the class are ignored.
12 What use of command line parameter cmd file?
It is a command line argument that allows you to specify a file that contain a set of arguments for r20run.
13 What is WHEN-Database-record trigger?
Fires when oracle forms first marks a record as an insert or an update. The trigger fires as soon as oracle forms determines through validation that the record should be processed by the next post or commit as an insert or update. c generally occurs only when the operators modifies the first item in the record, and after the operator attempts to navigate out of the item.
14 What is use of term?
The term file which key is correspond to which oracle report functions.
15 What is trigger associated with the timer?
When-timer-expired.
16 What is the use of transactional triggers?
Using transactional triggers we can control or modify the default functionality of the oracle forms.
17 What is the use of place holder column?
A placeholder column is used to hold calculated values at a specified place rather than allowing is to appear in the actual row where it has to appear.
18 What is the use of image_zoom built-in?
To manipulate images in image items.
19 What is the use of hidden column?
A hidden column is used to when a column has to embed into boilerplate text.
20 What is the use of break group?
A break group is used to display one record for one group ones. While multiple related records in other group can be displayed.
21 What is the remove on exit property?
For a modelless window, it determines whether oracle forms hides the window automatically when the operators navigates to an item in the another window.
22 What is the purpose of the product order option in the column property sheet?
To specify the order of individual group evaluation in a cross products.
23 What is the maximum no of chars the parameter can store?
The maximum no of chars the parameter can store is only valid for char parameters, which can be upto 64K. No parameters default to 23Bytes and Date parameter default to 7Bytes.
24 What is the main diff. bet. Reports 2.0 & Reports 2.5?
Report 2.5 is object oriented.
25 What is the frame & repeating frame?
A frame is a holder for a group of fields. A repeating frame is used to display a set of records when the no. of records that are to displayed is not known before.
26 What is the difference between OLE Server & Ole Container?
An Ole server application creates ole Objects that are embedded or linked in ole Containers ex. Ole servers are ms_word & ms_excel. OLE containers provide a place to store, display and manipulate objects that are created by ole server applications. Ex. oracle forms is an example of an ole Container.
27 What is the difference between object embedding & linking in Oracle forms?
In Oracle forms, Embedded objects become part of the form module, and linked objects are references from a form module to a linked source file.
28 What is the difference between boiler plat images and image items?
Boiler plate Images are static images (Either vector or bit map) that you import from the file system or database to use a graphical elements in your form, such as company logos and maps. Image items are special types of interface controls that store and display either vector or bitmap images. Like other items that store values, image items can be either base table items(items that relate directly to database columns) or control items. The definition of an image item is stored as part of the form module FMB and FMX files, but no image file is actually associated with an image item until the item is populate at run time.
29 What is the difference between $$DATE$$ & $$DBDATE$$ $$DBDATE$$ retrieves the current database date $$date$$ retrieves the current operating system date.
30 What is the diff. when Flex mode is mode on and when it is off?
When flex mode is on, reports automatically resizes the parent when the child is resized.
31 What is the diff. when confine mode is on and when it is off?
When confine mode is on, an object cannot be moved outside its parent in the layout.
32 What is the diff. bet. setting up of parameters in reports 2.0 reports 2.5?
LOVs can be attached to parameters in the reports 2.5 parameter form.
33 What is the advantage of the library?
Libraries provide a convenient means of storing client-side program units and sharing them among multiple applications. Once you create a library, you can attach it to any other form, menu, or library modules. When you can call library program units from triggers menu items commands and user named routine, you write in the modules to which you have attach the library. When a library attaches another library, program units in the first library can reference program units in the attached library. Library support dynamic loading-that is library program units are loaded into an application only when needed. This can significantly reduce the run-time memory requirements of applications.
34 What is term?
The term is terminal definition file that describes the terminal form which you are using r20run.
35 What is system.coordination_operation?
It represents the coordination causing event that occur on the master block in master-detail relation.
36 What is synchronize?
It is a terminal screen with the internal state of the form. It updates the screen display to reflect the information that oracle forms has in its internal representation of the screen.
37 What is strip sources generate options?
Removes the source code from the library file and generates a library files that contains only pcode. The resulting file can be used for final deployment, but can not be subsequently edited in the designer. ex. f45gen module=old_lib.pll userid=scott/tiger strip_source YES output_file
38 What is relation between the window and canvas views?
Canvas views are the back ground objects on which you place the interface items (Text items), check boxes, radio groups etc.,) and boilerplate objects (boxes, lines, images etc.,) that operators interact with us they run your form . Each canvas views displayed in a window.
39 What is pop list?
The pop list style list item appears initially as a single field (similar to a text item field). When the operator selects the list icon, a list of available choices appears.
40 What is new_form built-in?
When one form invokes another form by executing new_form oracle form exits the first form and releases its memory before loading the new form calling new form completely replace the first with the second. If there are changes pending in the first form, the operator will be prompted to save them before the new form is loaded.
41 What is lexical reference? How can it be created?
Lexical reference is place_holder for text that can be embedded in a sql statements. A lexical reference can be created using & before the column or parameter name.
42 What is forms_DDL?
Issues dynamic Sql statements at run time, including server side pl/SQl and DDL
43 What is difference between open_form and call_form?
when one form invokes another form by executing open_form the first form remains displayed, and operators can navigate between the forms as desired. when one form invokes another form by executing call_form, the called form is modal with respect to the calling form. That is, any windows that belong to the calling form are disabled, and operators cannot navigate to them until they first exit the called form.
44 What is bind reference and how can it be created?
Bind reference are used to replace the single value in sql, pl/sql statements a bind reference can be created using a (:) before a column or a parameter name.
45 What is an user exit used for?
A way in which to pass control (and possibly arguments ) form Oracle report to another Oracle products of 3 GL and then return control ( and ) back to Oracle reports.
46 What is an OLE?
Object Linking & Embedding provides you with the capability to integrate objects from many Ms-Windows applications into a single compound document creating integrated applications enables you to use the features form .
47 What is an object group?
An object group is a container for a group of objects; you define an object group when you want to package related objects, so that you copy or reference them in other modules.
48 What is an anchoring object & what is its use?
An anchoring object is a print condition object which used to explicitly or implicitly anchor other objects to itself.
49 What is a User_exit?
Calls the user exit named in the user_exit_string. Invokes a 3Gl program by name which has been properly linked into your current oracle forms executable.
50 What is a timer?
Timer is an "internal time clock" that you can programmatically create to perform an action each time the timer expires.
51 What is a Text_io Package?
It allows you to read and write information to a file in the file system.
52 What is a text list?
The text list style list item appears as a rectangular box which displays the fixed number of values. When the text list contains values that can not be displayed, a vertical scroll bar appears, allowing the operator to view and select undisplayed values.
53 What is a property clause?
A property clause is a named object that contains a list of properties and their settings. Once you create a property clause you can base other object on it. An object based on a property can inherit the setting of any property in the clause that makes sense for that object.
54 What is a physical page ? & What is a logical page ?
A physical page is a size of a page. That is output by the printer. The logical page is the size of one page of the actual report as seen in the Previewer.
55 What is a library?
A library is a collection of subprograms including user named procedures, functions and packages.
56 What is a difference between pre-select and pre-query?
Fires during the execute query and count query processing after oracle forms constructs the select statement to be issued, but before the statement is actually issued. The pre-query trigger fires just before oracle forms issues the select statement to the database after the operator as define the example records by entering the query criteria in enter query mode. Pre-query trigger fires before pre-select trigger.
57 What is a combo box?
A combo box style list item combines the features found in list and text item. Unlike the pop list or the text list style list items, the combo box style list item will both display fixed values and accept one operator entered value.
58 What does the term panel refer to with regard to pages?
A panel is the no. of physical pages needed to print one logical page.
59 What are visual attributes?
Visual attributes are the font, color, pattern proprieties that you set for form and menu objects that appear in your application interface.
60 What are three panes that appear in the run time pl/sql interpreter?
1.Source pane. 2. interpreter pane. 3. Navigator pane.

How to write sql query for counting pairs from below table??
Below is my SQL table structure.
user_id | Name | join_side | left_leg | right_leg | Parent_id
100001 Tinku Left 100002 100003 0
100002 Harish Left 100004 100005 100001
100003 Gorav Right 100006 100007 100001
100004 Prince Left 100008 NULL 100002
100005 Ajay Right NULL NULL 100002
100006 Simran Left NULL NULL 100003
100007 Raman Right NULL NULL 100003
100008 Vijay Left NULL NULL 100004
It is a binary table structure.. Every user has to add two per id under him, one is left_leg and second is right_leg... Parent_id is under which user current user is added.. Hope you will be understand..
I have to write sql query for counting pairs under id "100001". i know there will be important role of parent_id for counting pairs. * what is pair( suppose if any user contains both left_leg and right_leg id, then it is called pair.)
I know there are three pairs under id "100001" :-
1. 100002 and 100003
2. 100004 and 100005
3. 100006 and 100007
100008 will not be counted as pair because it does not have right leg..
But i dont know how to write sql query for this... Any help will be appreciated... This is my college project... And tommorow is the last date of submission.... Hope anyone will help me...
Suppose i have to count pair for id '100002'. Then there is only one pair under id '100002'. i.e 100004 and 100005Sounds like this to me
DECLARE @ID int
SET @ID = 100001--your passed value
SELECT left_leg,right_leg
FROM table
WHERE (user_id = @ID
OR parent_id = @ID)
AND left_leg IS NOT NULL
AND right_leg IS NOT NULL

Bug SQL Dev 1.5.4 Build MAIN-5940 Exporting count(*) query results
when trying to export query results containing an analytic count the export dialog fails to open:
When running the following query
select count(*) over (partition by dummy order by rownum) xx
from dual;right clicking on the results grid and selecting export->xls (or any other format) fails to open the export dialog box.
changing the asterisk (*) to another value e.g. 1 or dummy corrects this issue for this particular query as does changing the analytic fuction to an aggregate function.
Edited by: Sentinel on Aug 12, 2009 11:05 AMI get the same error when exporting the same statement - however, there is a known problem with 1.5.4 and failing on exports of certain statements (see 1.5.3 - Export results to XLS ORA-00936 which talks about there still being problems in 1.5.4 although the thread is titled 1.5.3).

Currently loading the data with the script , which it contatins
Retreving data from oracle through SQL interface on to rules files
and loading the data.
just my question is , if i get 0 records from oracle , i dont want to proceed with the loading of data (which is no useful ).
Can i stop the loading if records are zero.As far as I know there is nothing in MaxLIt that could tell that there were no rows.The MaxL statement would return a zero code saying that the process worked ok. It would be prossible in your batch script to have mutiple calls to MaxL and between them to do something like make a call to your sql DB getting the count of rows for your query. Investigate the result and if it is zero, then get out of your load and calc process (I guess you could do that even before you try to load).
Or how about scheduling a job that creates an output file with the count if it is greater than zero. If it is, then run the batch load process if it is not, then bypass it. There are multiple ways to do this outside of Essbase, just not in it. -
Dynamic SQL within a SQL Query ?
is there any possibility to do like this ?
SELECT table_name, XXXXXXXX('SELECT Count(*) FROM '||table_name) tot_rows
FROM dba_tables
WHERE owner = 'SCOTT';or any other trick to run dynamic SQL within the SQL Query?
Hoping....that it should be.
Regards,
OrapdevOne small disadvantage: it is executing 202 SQL statements: 3 "user SQL statements" (the one above and the 2 "select count(*)..."), and 199 internal ones ...How did you get to those numbers?

Query SQL with variables Parameters and user defined tables
Hi everyone
I got a problem about Query SQL
[dbo].[@CSOURCE] is a user defined table
select * from [dbo].[@CSOURCE]
you can get the result in following
code name
T01 newspaper
T02 TV
T03 radio
T04 friends
when I execute the following SQL Statements ,I get an error
SELECT T0.CardCode , 0.CardName ,T1.Name ,T2.SONumber
FROM OCRD T0 LEFT JOIN [dbo].[@CSOURCE] T1 ON T0.U_CSOURCE = T1.Code
LEFT JOIN (SELECT T0.CardCode ,COUNT(T0.DocNum)SONumber
FROM ODLN T0 INNER JOIN OCRD T1 ON T0.CardCode = T1.CardCode
WHERE T1.GroupCode =111
AND (T0.DocDate >=[%0] or [%0]='')
AND (T0.DocDate <=[%1] or [%1]='')
GROUP BY T0.CardCode) T2 ON T0.CardCode=T2.CardCode
WHERE T0.GroupCode =111
and T0.CardType ='C
Is there anyone can correct it for me
thank you very much

Edited by: Li Mishan on Jul 17, 2008 9:40 AMI am sorry .It is just a mistake of my typewriting.
The following is the whole SQL
dbo.@CSOURCE is a user table.It's content is
code name
T01 newspaper
T02 TV
T03 radio
T04 friends
declare @m int
declare @FromDate DateTime
declare @ToDate DateTime
set @m=(SELECT count(*) FROM ORDR T0 WHERE T0.DocDate >=[%0] and T0.DocDate <=[%1])
set @FromDate=[%0]
set @ToDate=[%1]
/*****************If I do not connect user tavble dbo.@CSOURCE ,I will succed *****************************************************/
SELECT T0.CardCode ,T0.CardName ,T2.SONumber,T1.Name
FROM OCRD T0 LEFT JOIN [dbo].[@CSOURCE] T1 ON T0.U_CSOURCE = T1.Code
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT T0.CardCode ,COUNT(T0.DocNum)SONumber FROM ODLN T0 INNER JOIN OCRD T1 ON T0.CardCode = T1.CardCode
WHERE T1.GroupCode =111
AND (T0.DocDate >=@FromDate or @FromDate='')
AND (T0.DocDate <=@ToDate or @ToDate ='')
GROUP BY T0.CardCode
) T2 ON T0.CardCode=T2.CardCode
WHERE T0.GroupCode =111
and T0.CardType ='C'
when I excute the SQL, It return a error , whith says the column name '%0' is invalid.
If I delete "set @m=(SELECT count(*) FROM ORDR T0 WHERE T0.DocDate >=[%0] and T0.DocDate <=[%1])"
and rewrite "set @FromDate='2008.05.01' set @ToDate='2008.07.01' "
It Shows the following results
CardCode CardName SONumber name

Report- Pl/sql function returning sql query parsing page items as text?
Hi Team,
I am facing a strange issue .
I have four page items namely
1)JOB_CODE
2)MIN_EXP
3) MAX_EXP
4) SOURCES1
I have a report of the type "Pl/sql function returning sql query"
declare
v_sql varchar2(4000);
begin
if (:JOB_CODE IS NOT NULL and :MIN_EXP IS NOT NULL and :MAX_EXP IS NOT NULL and :SOURCES1 IS NOT NULL) then
v_sql:= 'select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where V_REQUIREMENT = :JOB_CODE and v_experience_years >= :MIN_EXP and v_experience_years <= :MAX_EXP and source like ' || '''' || '%'|| ':SOURCES1' || '%' || '''';
elsif (:JOB_CODE IS NULL and :MIN_EXP IS NOT NULL and :MAX_EXP IS NOT NULL and :SOURCES1 IS NOT NULL) then
v_sql := 'select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where v_experience_years >= :MIN_EXP and v_experience_years <= :MAX_EXP and source like ' || '''' || '%'|| ':SOURCES1' || '%' || '''';
elsif (:MIN_EXP IS NULL and :JOB_CODE IS NOT NULL and :MAX_EXP IS NOT NULL and :SOURCES1 IS NOT NULL) then
v_sql := 'select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where v_experience_years <= :MAX_EXP and V_REQUIREMENT = :JOB_CODE and source like ' || '''' || '%'|| ':SOURCES1' || '%' || '''';
elsif (:MAX_EXP is null and :JOB_CODE IS NOT NULL and :MIN_EXP IS NOT NULL and :SOURCES1 IS NOT NULL) then
v_sql := 'select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where V_REQUIREMENT = :JOB_CODE and v_experience_years >= :MIN_EXP and source like ' || '''' || '%'|| ':SOURCES1' || '%' || '''';
end if;
insert into query_list values (v_sql);
insert into debug values (:JOB_CODE , :MIN_EXP , :MAX_EXP , :SOURCES1);
return v_sql;
end;
Please not that I am insertin the query into a table called Query_list and the page item values into the table called Debug thru the pl/sql function which returns teh query.
Now I select the data from the debug tables.
select unique(query) from query_list;
select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where V_REQUIREMENT = :JOB_CODE and v_experience_years >= :MIN_EXP and v_experience_years <= :MAX_EXP and source like '%:SOURCES1%'
select * from debug;
JOBCODE MINEX MAXEX SOURCE
21 1 10 donkeyHire
And if I run the query in sql I get some records returned
select v_candidate_id, v_fname,v_current_employer,v_Experience_years from candidature where V_REQUIREMENT = 21 and v_experience_years >= 1 and v_experience_years <= and source like 'donkeyHire'
V_CANDIDATE_ID V_FNAME V_CURRENT_EMPLOYER V_EXPERIENCE_YEARS
2 Vengu Andale Tech 4
But the record does not show up in the report!
does this type of report parse page items as text?
Why is it so?
Waiting for an early reply.
Thanks,
venkatVenkat - You don't want to put ':SOURCES1' in quotes like that.

Issue with running PL/SQL function returning Sql query
hi, I am trying to create a report region by using the option of PL/SQL function returning sql query.
I notice that it's very slow for the report region page to show up. In my PL/SQL function body, there are only 3 steps, first update all the 10 rows of varchar2 fields to null,then insert values to those fields, then select all from the table to show report results. It takes more than 5 minitues for the page to load up, how ever, if i run those steps in SQL*Plus, it only takes a couple of seconds to finish. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
ginaSergio, the codes are as followed,
Declare
q varchar2(32767); -- query
Begin
q := 'select "ID",'||
'"ENTRY NAME","TOTAL","#CM","%CM","#CA",'||
'"%CA", from Info_table';
update info_table
set "TOTAL" = '',
"#CM" = '',
"%CM" = '',
"#CA" ='',
"%CA"=''
where "ID"<=10;
// set all data in column Total to null,there is only 10 rows in the table
update info_Table set Total = vTotal,
"#CM" = vCM
(those variables hold user key-in Text filed value)
where ID = 1;
return q;
End; -
Running a SQL Stored Procedure from Power Query with Dynamic Parameters
Hi,
I want to execute a stored procedure from Power Query with dynamic parameters.
In normal process, query will look like below in Power Query. Here the value 'Dileep' is passed as a parameter value to SP.
Source = Sql.Database("ABC-PC", "SAMPLEDB", [Query="EXEC DBO.spGetData 'Dileep'"]
Now I want to pass the value dynamically taking from excel sheet. I can get the required excel cell value in a variable but unable to pass it to query.
Name_Parameter = Excel.CurrentWorkbook(){[Name="Table3"]}[Content],
Name_Value = Name_Parameter{0}[Value],
I have tried like below but it is not working.
Source = Sql.Database("ABC-PC", "SAMPLEDB", [Query="EXEC DBO.spGetData Name_Value"]
Can anyone please help me with this issue.
Thanks
DileepHi,
I got it. Below is the correct syntax.
Source = Sql.Database("ABC-PC", "SAMPLEDB", [Query="EXEC DBO.spGetData '" & Name_Value & "'"]
Thanks

How to set Query SQL Statement parameter dynamically in Sender JDBCAdpter
Hi All,
I have one scenario in which we are using JDBC Sender Adapter.
Now in this case,we need to set Query SQL Statement with a SELECT statement based on some fields.
This SQL statement is not constant, it would need to be changed.
Means sometimes receiver will want to execute SQL statement with these fields and sometimes they will want to execute it with different fields.
We can create separate channels for each SQL statement but again that is not an optimum solution.
So ,I am looking out for a way to set these parameters dynamically or set SQL statement at Runtime.
Can you all please help me to get this?Shweta ,
<i>Sometimes receiver will want to execute SQL statement dynamically</i>....
How you will get the query dynamically? Ok Let me assume, consider they are sending the query through file, then its definitely possible. But u need BPM and also not sender JDBC receiver adapter instead, receiver JDBC adapter.
SQL Query File ->BPM>Synchronous send [Fetch data from DB]--->Response -
>...............
Do u think the above design will suit's ur case!!!!
Best regards,

Hi all,
I'm getting really frustrated by this Access error. It happens when I export the result of a query through an Access macro to Excel, the first time it runs well but the next time, there is a chance that the query won't run and the error "Query
must have at least one destination field" will be displayed. After that, I try to check the query SQL code and discover the code has vanished. I'm using simple Select query without joins, only "where", "group by" and "order by"
statements.
Thank you in advance for your help,
Jesus
Edit:
One of these queries are like the following (all of them are of this type):
SELECT Field1, field2, field3, field4, field5, Sum(Field6) AS SumOfField6, Sum(Field7) AS SumOfField7
FROM Table1
WHERE Field6 is not null
GROUP BY Field1, field2, field3, field4, field5
Order By Sum(Field6) descHi Peter,
Thank you for your response, I updated the original question with one of the codes.
Thanks,

On Submit process not firing -report (PL/SQL function returning SQL query)
Can anyone suggest possible causes / solutions for the following problem?
I have a report region that uses a PL/SQL function returning SQL query. The report allows the user to update multiple fields / rows and then click a button to submit the page which should run the On-Submit process to update the database. However the process does not run and I get a 'HTTP404 page cannot be found' error; and when I navigate back using the Back button I cannot then navigate to any other page in my application without getting the same error. The button was created by a wizard selecting the options to submit the page and redirect to a (same) page. The button does not actually have a redirect in its definition but the wizard created a branch to the same page which should work and the button has the text 'submit as SUBMIT' next to it so it appears to be set up correctly.
I have recreated this page several times in my application and I cannot get the On-Submit process to run. However I have created a cut down version of the same page in the sample application on apex.oracle.com at http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=4550:1:179951678764332 and this works perfectly so I am at a loss to understand why it does not work in my application. I cannot post any part of the application itself but if anybody would like to check out page 30 of the sample application (Customer Update Test tab) updating the surnames only, using credentials ja, demo, demo this is pretty much what I have got in my application.
Any ideas would be much appreciated?Thanks for the suggestions guys. I have now identified that the problem goes away when I remove the second table from my report query. The original report query retrieved data from two tables and the process was updating only one of the tables. I thought I had approached the task logically i.e. first get the report to display the records from the two tables, then get the process to update the first table and finally to modify the process further to update the second table.
Can anyone point me to an example of multiple row updates on multiple tables using a PL/SQL function returning an SQL query? -
Pl/sql block returning sql query.
Hello,
I am using oracle 10g apex 3.2 version.
I am using the following return statement inside my report which is pl/sql block returning sql query.
declare
pid varchar2(100);
begin
return 'select patient_id_code from t_files_data_exp where patient_id_code not in pid';
end;
How am i suppose to mention the pid inside the return stmt i mean with any quotes or anything? because the above return stmt gives error
"1 error has occurred
Query cannot be parsed within the Builder. If you believe your query is syntactically correct, check the ''generic columns'' checkbox below the region source to proceed without parsing. The query can not be parsed, the cursor is not yet open or a function returning a SQL query returned without a value."
ThanksHello,
I did exactly the way u told
declare
pid varchar2(100) := '(61092,61093)';
begin
return 'select patient_id_code from t_files_data_exp where patient_id_code not in ' || pid;
end;
patient_id_code is varchar2(100) only in table.
For this i am getting "invalid number error".
Thanks
