QUESTION: write SQL query to find the names of actors who earned less than 'B Castro' in each movie that 'B Castro' played in.

thanks so so much.....
another question:
for each movie, list the movie number, the average
pay and the total number of actors in the movie.....Rather than just asking homework questions and expecting everyone else to do your work for you, why don't you at least have a go at it yourself and post the query that you've tried, then we'll tell you where you are going wrong. You won't learn anything if we just write it for you.
Also, your use of "pls help ASAP" in the subject title is not polite.

Sql query not execute

Hi Forum
i made an application which run on JRun server.
In many of my jsps i used sql query like this:
" select id, name, rollno from student where add = 'jj';"
and retrieve the record from resultset like this:
rs.getString("id");
rs.getString("name");
rs.getString("rollno");
I got no error.
BUT WHEN I RETRIEVE THE RECORDS LIKE THIS
rs.getString("name");
rs.getString("id");
rs.getString("rollno");
i got the error:
java.sql.SQLException: [Oracle][ODBC]Invalid column number <1>.
I can not understand what is the problem ?
all the datatypes are correct.
all coding is correct.
and everything is correct.
pls help me & suggest a solution.
is there any problem of jdbc API OR of JRUN SERVER SETTINGS?
thanks
mail me at [email protected]

I would advise against ever using SELECT * - the order of the columns is undetermined so you're bound to hit this problem sooner or later. Besides, it assumes the column names and you know what happens when you assume things...
I would recommend retrieving only the columns you need, in the order you want them and to call ResultSet.getXXX for each of the columns, in order.

HELP! SQL Query: Other ways to reorder column display?

I have a SQL query report with a large number of columns (users can hide/show columns as desired). It would be great if the column display order could be changed by changing the order of the columns in the SELECT list in the Report Definition, but that doesn't work -- it puts changed or added columns at the end regardless of the order in the SELECT list of the query.
Is there some other way to reorder the columns displayed without using the Report Attributes page? It's extremely tedious to move columns around using the up/down arrows which redisplays the page each time. Am I missing a way to change display order, or does anyone have a "trick" to do this? It's so painful....
When defining forms you can reoder columns by specifying a sequence number for each column. Just curious as to why reports were not done the same way, and are there any plans to address this in a future release?
Karen

Yes, reordering columns is extremely painful.
It is supposed to be much improved in the next version.
See
Re: Re-ordering columns on reports
Moving columns up/down in Report Attributes
See my example at
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=24317:141
Basically, let the users move columns around until they are blue in the face, provide a Save button to save the column order in a user preference and reorder the columns when the page reloads.
Or you can use Carl's PL/SQL shuttle as the widget to specify the columns shown and their order. The shuttle is at http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:27
Hope this helps.

PL/SQL function body returning SQL Query Problem

I have wandered around the forums and found quite a bit of helpful information that has gotten me to the point I am now at. Unfortuntely, PL/SQL is not my strongest point and I am getting an error when I attempt to run my report.
This is what I have for my package:

I have tried the region source line in many variations, this is just my latest one. None of them have worked. I am quite obviously missing something quite important and probably extremely silly. Any ideas?

This query will never work. I marked only couple of errors you have there. Actually,
I meant "formating" errors rather than "syntactical" errors. You are missing spaces
all over the place. This is why I suggested to use a CLOB column in a test table
to return the query for debugging purposes - this is how I do it at least, when I need
to escape and concatenate a lot of code.
If you are referencing item values from a user session in a function or a procedure,
then you need to use the v('ITEM') syntax instead of :ITEM syntax. However, if the
output of this procedure will be used as a function returning SQL query, you will
be fine with :ITEM.

Generate JSPs from SQL query

Hello all,
I am currently creating a web application that will allow a user to create a homepage from a template that is displayed to them. If the user is logging into the system for the first time, the template to create their homepage is displayed to them. However, if the user is logging in and has already used the template to set their homepage options, they are then forwarded to their homepage.
The users options for their homepage are stored in a database. The problem I am having is trying to generate the jsp page ( with HTML inside also ) using SQL statements that query the table that store the users options.
Eg. an SQL query queries the DB to see wht options the user has selected. Can anyone help me / advise me how to use these queries to generate the homepage. Thanks in advance!

Hi aniseed,
Thanks for a prompt reply.
So for example can you tell me if the following sample approach is ok.
<html>
<head>
<body>
<sql:query name="query">
SELECT * FROM SettingsTable WHERE links == "yes"
</sql:query>
<%-- Then to use this query result to insert selected hyperlinks that the user wants in their homepage, I would do the following ....... ? --%>
<% if (query.size() == 0)
<table>
<td>
<tr>
</tr>
</td>
</table>
%>
Thanks again

Report from SQL Query -Excel format only show the first page

Hi,
I have some Reports from SQL Query. In the display options, I choose Excel as default format. The Excel documents only show the first page. If I choose HTML as default format, it shows every rows.
Please advise on how to have a complete Excel document as HTML format does.
Thanks a lot.
Lina Han

I beleive when you export Oracle reports to Excel it is the Data that is transferred along with Column Names.
You cannot export the variables defined on the report.
Hence you will not be able to export the Footer to excel. (Still looking into it will let you know if i find anything interesting)

Help needed in building a sql query

Hello,
I am using Oracle 10g db.
I have 3 tables table1 and table2 and table3
I am writing one sql query which is like
select table1.a a1,(select distinct b from table2,table3 where table2.id=table3.id and table1.id=table2.id) b1
from table1
Now the b1 value may give more then 1 values so when i am trying to execute the query its giving me error.
What i would like to have is if it gives returns more then 1 value then add that value as a new column means if b1 gives like abc and def as values.
Then i want the sql to return like
acolvalue abc def as a single row.
Is this possible to do?
Thanks

Hello,
The approach which i took is i wrote a function which gives me the b values , sseparated.
Then i am building a outer query considering the max of b so i just found there are max 10 values which one row is showing.
select b11,b12,b13,,,b10
from (
select table1.a a1,func(select distinct b from table2,table3 where table2.id=table3.id and table1.id=table2.id) b1
from table1)
but now i am facing problem like the value of b1 is a,b,c
i want to use the substr and instr function to get
a as b11
b as b12
c as b13
can anyone pls help me out to write a query? i am getting b11 but other values are somehow not coming.
for b11
i used
substr(b1,1,instr(b1,',',1,1)-1)
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?

How to execute an SQL query present in a string inside an ABAP program?

hello,
How to execute an SQL query present in a string inside an ABAP program

Raut,
You can execute Native SQl statements.
Ex: To use a Native SQL statement, you must precede it with the EXEC SQL statement, and follow it with the ENDEXEC statement as follows:
EXEC SQL [PERFORMING <form>].
<Native SQL statement>
ENDEXEC.
There is no period after Native SQL statements. Furthermore, using inverted commas (") or an asterisk (*) at the beginning of a line in a native SQL statement does not introduce a comment as it would in normal ABAP syntax. You need to know whether table and field names are case-sensitive in your chosen database.
In Native SQL statements, the data is transported between the database table and the ABAP program using host variables. These are declared in the ABAP program, and preceded in the Native SQL statement by a colon (:). You can use elementary structures as host variables. Exceptionally, structures in an INTO clause are treated as though all of their fields were listed individually.
If the selection in a Native SQL SELECT statement is a table, you can pass it to ABAP line by line using the PERFORMING addition. The program calls a subroutine <form> for each line read. You can process the data further within the subroutine.
As in Open SQL, after the ENDEXEC statement, SY-DBCNT contains the number of lines processed. In nearly all cases, SY-SUBRC contains the value 0 after the ENDEXEC statement. Cursor operations form an exception: After FETCH, SY-SUBRC is 4 if no more records could be read. This also applies when you read a result set using EXEC SQL PERFORMING.
EXEC SQL PERFORMING loop_output.
SELECT connid, cityfrom, cityto
INTO :wa
FROM spfli
WHERE carrid = :c1
ENDEXEC.
Pls. Mark If useful

SQL query works in the SQLPlus, but fires parse error after being cut and pasted into

One of our client has a SQL query like this:
SQL> SELECT LNAME,
2 QUOTA/12,
3 (SELECT SUM(CAMT) FROM CONSULTING WHERE CONSULTANT = P.EMPLOYEE
4 AND ACTIVITYCODE = 'C'AND
5 CDATE BETWEEN '01-JAN-2001' AND '31-JAN-2001') AS SUM,
6 (SELECT SUM(CAMT) FROM CONSULTING WHERE CONSULTANT = P.EMPLOYEE
7 AND ACTIVITYCODE = 'C'AND
8 CDATE BETWEEN '01-JAN-2001' AND '31-JAN-2001') -
QUOTA/12 AS PL
9 FROM PERSONNEL P
10 ORDER BY LNAME;
Running the above query in the SQLPlus returns appropriate resultsets to the
user. After the same SQL being cut and pasted into a portal report
component, running the report component fires the following error:
Failed to parse query
Error:ORA-00911: invalid character (WWV-11230)
Failed to parse as XXX - SELECT LNAME, QUOTA/12, (SELECT SUM(CAMT) FROM
CONSULTING WHERE CONSULTANT = P.EMPLOYEE AND ACTIVITYCODE = 'C'AND CDATE
BETWEEN '01-JAN-2001' AND '31-JAN-2001') AS SUM, (SELECT SUM(CAMT) FROM
CONSULTING WHERE CONSULTANT = P.EMPLOYEE AND ACTIVITYCODE = 'C'AND CDATE
BETWEEN '01-JAN-2001' AND '31-JAN-2001') - QUOTA/12 AS PL FROM PERSONNEL P
ORDER BY LNAME; (WWV-08300)
Cursor is not open
Is this because of the multi-table queries, or something else? Is there any
way around this? Any information regarding this will be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Sunny,
From the error message that you posted it seems that you are putting a semicolon ";" at the end of your query. I checked the query that you have posted. It is working fine for me. (I am using 3.0.8) but I feel it will work in your version also. I tried the query without a ";" at the end --It worked.
I tried with ";" at the end -- It gave the error that you have posted. So remove the ";" at the end and it should work. If you are still getting the same error then pls write down the version you are using. I will check in that version.
Thanx,
Chetan.

SQL query -- pls advise
