Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to tahiti.oracle.com.
Drill down to your product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual. The answer to your current questions is found in this manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

Report from PL/SQL Table

Thanks for answer to my first question. Now I have another problem.
Is there any way to print a report based on virtual table, which is created during some Pl/SQL procedure and can't be easily decribed by Select statement

SELECT FROM PL/SQL TABLE IN ORACLE REPORTS 6I
The requirement is to populate a table and then select from that table in a report. The typical solution is to
populate a database table, but for situations where that is undesirable there is a way to select from a PL/SQL
table.
For example - for each employee we want to populate a PL/SQL table and then select from that table.
I used the following records in the emp table:
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(123,'Bob','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(321,'Sue','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(234,'Mary','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(623,'Joe','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(621,'Jim','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(634,'Jane','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(723,'Fred','Sales',555,'28-JAN-79',35000,12,30);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(721,'Meg','Finance',555,'12-MAY-83',42000,12,10);
INSERT INTO Emp VALUES(734,'Jill','Account',555,'14-AUG-82',33000,12,20);
=============================================================================================
Step 1: Create a package spec in the report:
PACKAGE pkg_table IS
TYPE t_rec IS RECORD (
field1 NUMBER(6),
field2 VARCHAR2(30));
TYPE t_tab IS TABLE OF t_rec INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
gv_tab t_tab;
FUNCTION populate (
p_empno NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER;
END;
Step 2: Create the package body:
PACKAGE BODY pkg_table IS
FUNCTION populate (
p_empno NUMBER) RETURN NUMBER IS
BEGIN
 gv_tab.DELETE;
 -- populate table as required - for demo purposes put in anything
 FOR lv_ind IN 1..MOD(p_empno,20) LOOP
 gv_tab(lv_ind).field1 := lv_ind;
 gv_tab(lv_ind).field2 := 'row '||TO_CHAR(lv_ind)||' for emp '||TO_CHAR(p_empno);
 END LOOP;
 RETURN gv_tab.COUNT;
END populate;
END;
Step 3: Create the master query:
SELECT empno,
ename
FROM emp
Step 4: Add a formula column CF_populate to the master query that does:
function CF_populateFormula return Number is
-- for each emp fetched this formula will repopulate the PL/SQL table
-- and return the number of records in the table
begin
return pkg_table.populate(:empno);
end;
Step 5: Create the detail query:
-- we need to join this to the master and then ensure that for each
-- empno there are as many records fetched as there will be
-- records in the PL/SQL table
SELECT e1.empno,rownum
FROM emp e1, emp e2, emp e3
WHERE rownum <= :CF_populate
Step 6: Add formula columns to the detail query for each of the fields in the
PL/SQL table we want to display:
CF_Field1:
function CF_field1Formula return Number is
begin
return pkg_table.gv_tab(:rownum).field1;
end;
CF_Field2:
function CF_field2Formula return Varchar2 is
begin
return pkg_table.gv_tab(:rownum).field2;
end;
Step 7: Create the repeating frame and layout items to display the formula columns.
=============================================================================================
The same technique can be used to populate a master query. In a report level formula column
CF_Populate populate the PL/SQL table as required. In the master query we just need the rownum:
SELECT rownum
FROM emp, emp, emp
WHERE rownum <= :CF_Populate
Add the formula columns to display Field1 and Field2.

Bulk selection based on PL/SQL table

Hi forum,
I have a defined a pl/sql table named keys, contains 2 column keys(i).key and keys(i).desc.Now my requirement is to fetch the data based on from oracle table based on key strored in pl/sql table.
I know that one option is to iterate through the table.like
for i in 1..keys.count
select value into x from <table> where key = keys(i).key
Any options available to fetch the data in bulk by passing pl/sql table keys at once?
Thanks in advance...
Rgds,
Aneesh A

Something like this:
SELECT empno, ename
FROM emp
WHERE deptno = 10
ORDER BY deptno
 EMPNO ENAME
 7782 CLARK
 7839 KING
 7934 MILLER
-- "record type"
CREATE TYPE dept_type AS OBJECT (
 deptno NUMBER(2),
 dname VARCHAR2(14),
 loc VARCHAR2(13)
-- nested table type
CREATE TYPE dept_tab_type AS TABLE OF dept_type
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON
DECLARE
 l_dept_tab dept_tab_type;
BEGIN
 SELECT dept_type (deptno, dname, loc)
 BULK COLLECT INTO l_dept_tab
 FROM dept
 WHERE deptno = 10;
 FOR rec IN (
 SELECT empno, ename
 FROM emp e,
 TABLE (l_dept_tab) d -- <=
 WHERE e.deptno = d.deptno
 ORDER BY empno)
 LOOP
 DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE (rec.empno || ' ' || rec.ename);
 END LOOP;
END;
7782 CLARK
7839 KING
7934 MILLERBut:
1. you can't use associative array ("PL/SQL table" is Oracle 7 termin) - you must use nested table
2. nested table type (and "record type") must be server defined
3. (or 1.) using collection for million of records is not good approach - use SQL instead of PL/SQL!

Three dimensional pl/sql table

hi, do anybody know how to create a 3 dimensional pl/sql table in oracle.
for example, if i say t_collection('flower')('water')('365'), it should return value for that combination

elmasduro wrote:
DomBrooks, your solution is very good. i have a question.
the statement v1('earth')('wind')('fire') := 'X'; asssigns one value to v1('earth')('wind')('fire')
what if i want to assign two values
something like this
v1('earth')('wind')('fire') : = 'X' 'XERT' You should not be using program data structures for this. It is not scalable and performant enough.. especially since you have the most powerful RDBMS in the world available at your fingertips to manage and index and store and manipulate this data for you.
The following is significantly more flexible and can scale:
create table foo(
key1 varchar2(20),
key2 varchar2(20),
key3 varchar2(20),
value1 varchar2(100),
value2 varchar2(100),
constraint pk_foo primary key
( key1, key2, key3 )
)You can make this an index organised table (depending on the final structure). You can also make it a global temporary table if you need to treat this as a temporary data set (temp table) in your session.
As for usage, you can create PL/SQL wrappers to conform to the type of syntax you want to use in your code. E.g.
create or replace procedure setValue( ... ) as
begin
insert into foo( .. ) values ( .. );
end;
create or replace function getValue( ... ) return .. as
begin
select f.* into .. from foo f where f. ..
return( .. );
end;You can define a SQL object structure that contains 2 columns that returns value1 and value2. Or you can have separate getValue1 and getValue2 functions.
A lot more flexibility. Much better performance (thanks to indexes). More robust (thanks to constraints). And can scale to 100's of millions of rows.. Compare that to attempting to do this using a PL data structure only.. no competition.

Depending on the version of the database you have, you could use transportable tablespaces.

How to use a Sybase table in Oracle SQL statement?

How to use a Sybase table in Oracle SQL statement?
Sybase version : 11.9.2.4
Oracle version : 10.2.05
Thanks.

user12088323 wrote:
How to use a Sybase table in Oracle SQL statement?
Sybase version : 11.9.2.4
Oracle version : 10.2.05
Thanks.Any Oracle client connected to the Oracle database can access Sybase data through the Database Gateway for Sybase (it requires an additional license) or the Database gateway for ODBC (it's free).
The Oracle client and the Oracle database can reside on different machines. The gateway accepts connections only from the Oracle database.
A connection to the gateway is established through a database link when it is first used in an Oracle session. In this context, a connection refers to the connection between the Oracle database and the gateway. The connection remains established until the Oracle session ends. Another session or user can access the same database link and get a distinct connection to the gateway and Sybase database.
Database links are active for the duration of a gateway session. If you want to close a database link during a session, you can do so with the ALTER SESSION statement.
To access the Sybase server, you must create a database link. A public database link is the most common of database links.
SQL> CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK dblink CONNECT TO
2 "user" IDENTIFIED BY "password" USING 'tns_name_entry';
--dblink is the complete database link name.
--tns_name_entry specifies the Oracle Net connect descriptor specified in the tnsnames.ora file that identifies the gatewayAfter the database link is created you can verify the connection to the Sybase database, as follows:
SQL> SELECT * FROM DUAL@dblink;

Using Oracle Forms Importing Data From SQL Server into Oracle Tables.

Dear All,
We are using Oracle Forms 10g in windows XP and having OAS 10g and Oracle database 9i.
How can we import data from SQL Server 2005 into Oracle tables using Oracle Forms?
Thanks & Regards

I have no idea what "Oracle Hetrogenius Services" is, so I can't help you with that, sorry.
SQL Developer might also assist you. SQL Developer can connect to SQL Server as well as Oracle and has some tools for migration. See the documentation for details:

Create and insert into table from Oracle to MS SQL server.

Hello,
Oracle Database 11g and Red hat 5
I have a very different kind of issue. I am handling the ORACLE db(remote db with all the important data). On the other side their is a MS SQL server db(local db with some testing data in it). All the users will access the ORACLE db for the actual processing but for sometime they need to apply some of their own concepts. So they will transfer the data from ORACLE to MS sql server.
I want to create a code in ORACLE db like a procedure , which will create a table in MS sql server , insert data into it,Also create some metadata table to keep some of my table's info on MS SQL serve db,If the table is present it should append the data, .... like many things ...
Overall my question is , how can i write a code to make these operation on a remote db, that to these operations are DDL and on MS SQL Server(Non-Oracle) ???
Please guide me with some ideas or solutions ...
Also provide if you have some good links to study ...
thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why you never visit http://tahiti.oracle.com prior to asking any question. Is it forbidden in your locale? Are you afraid of it? Will your salary be decreased when you visit the documentation?

Migration of table from sql server to oracle

Hi,
I had to export few tables from SQL Server to Oracle. After the migration, I am checking to see all the tables in Oracle that have been migrated from Sql Server. I am executing select * from tab; and am seeing all the the tables (including those have been exported) from the output list of tables. However, when I am doing a select * from x; where x is one of the few tables that have been migrated, it says table or view does not exist. This is the problem with all other migrated tables. Any help is appreciated in advance. Thanks.

Try select * from "x"

Replication of table from Oracle 10g to sql server 2000

Could i replicate table from Oracle 10g to sql server online. we have tables with same configuration and if any change happen in oracle 10g or sql server in that table we need to replicate that change to other database.
What is the solution for this two way replication between sql server and Oracle 10g

But the tutorial is saying that i will have to install Oracle database on the server already having sql server, is it client or whole database, if it is then it will acquire lot of resource.
I want to find out that for Heterogenous Service ODBC, we need third party software for ODBC Driver of SQL SERVER for Linux and secondly if we use Transparent Gateway then what are the steps for its configuration.
I could not find steps of configuration of Transoparent gateway, when i am trying to install Transparent gateway from Universal installer, it is not there. where do i find it , Do i need to purchase it too.

table@microsoftSQLServer m
where o.F1=m.F1;
Can Oracle BI Publisher do this?
Basically I want to query simultaneously two heterogeneous data sources in one SQL statement. Is there such a tool? I don't want to build a warehouse by moving data from SQL Server into Oracle or vice-versa. I don't want to duplicate data. I want to be able to query data at its source via 1 SQL statement.
How would one go about doing such a thing?
Many Thanks

Hi Matt and Thomas
Many thanks for your replies.
Yes I have to do the join. Even worse I have to write an Aggregate query like this!
Select o.F1,o.F2, m.F1,m.F2, count(*)
from
table@oracleServer o,
table@microsoftSQLServer m
where o.F1=m.F1
group by o.F1,o.F2, m.F1,m.F2;
These are 2 different systems (hardware & software) which actually do the same job, they produce transactions for a common business entity. Kind of, both sell tickets for the same ABC ferry company.
I can not put them side by side on the dashboard, as I need to aggregate the data and present it maybe in a Oracle BI Report for Accounting and Financial reconciliation purposes.
The truth is, as it is. I can't change it, is too late.
I have to device a way to harvest both systems as they are. I don't want to move around data. I thought looking at Oracle BI I could write SQL against multiple Data Sources. I am struggling to find a way. As it seems that it can "SQL query" 1 data source at a time.
I have been hinted on another forum (OracleTURK) to use Oracle Transparent Gateways and Generic Connectivity. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/toc.htm
Shame, I have to pay licenses for OWB and Oracle Transparent Gateways. I thought DB vendors can do better. Why do I have to pay to access the other 50% of the market.
I can understand the performance implications this might have. Because of it I might even be forced at the end to move data (ETL) into a separate database, slice it into partitions and manage it that way. Pitty because currenlty I only need one report out of these systems but seems like will be dear to get.
Thank you for all your help.
