Trouble using pipelined function in an select list lov query

I'm trying to use a pipelined function in a select list lov query but i cet the error
"LOV query is invalid, a display and a return value are needed, the column names need to be different. If your query contains an in-line query, the first FROM clause in the SQL statement must not belong to the in-line query."
my query is as follows :
SELECT gt.navn d, gt.GEOGRAPHY_TYPE_ID r
FROM GEOGRAPHY_TYPE gt
WHERE gt.kode NOT IN (1)
and gt.kode in (select lov_value from table(RAPPORT_FILTER_PKG.GET_RAPPORT_FILTER_VALUE_PIP (
SYS_CONTEXT ('rapport_filter_ctx','filter_id'),'GEOGRAPHY_TYPES')) )
ORDER BY gt.navn DESC
if i use a discrete values '80' instead of the call to
SYS_CONTEXT ('rapport_filter_ctx','filter_id')
i don't get eny errors, but then the LOV isn't as dynamic as i has to be
any idears???

nope that doesn't do it either
contains a syntax errror at
SYS_CONTEXT (('rapport_filter_ctx',:P500_RAPPORT_FILTER_ID),'GEOGRAPHY_TYPES'))
my theory is that it's got something to do with the way APEX binds values because
the query
SELECT gt.navn d, gt.GEOGRAPHY_TYPE_ID r
FROM GEOGRAPHY_TYPE gt
WHERE gt.kode NOT IN (1)
and gt.kode in (select r from table(RAPPORT_FILTER_PKG.GET_RAPPORT_FILTER_VALUE_PIP ('80','GEOGRAPHY_TYPES')) )
ORDER BY gt.navn DESC
works fine in both TOAD and in APEX but as soon as i replace th '80' with :P500_RAPPORT_FILTER_ID then, apex won't accept the code??????

Limitations in using a function within a select statement

I have a function which retrieves various data elements from the
database and formats it accordingly. The data (varchar2)
returned could be in excess of 2,000 characters length.
I need to use the returned data as part of a view. I am able to
use the function in a "select" statement, but when I use it with
returned data in excess of 2,000 chars, I get the following
error:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error
This error is occurring whenever the returned data is in excess
of 2,000 characters.
Is there an alternative method to what I am proposing, I have
tried alternative data types but if I am able to use it in a
"select" statement, I get the above error when the returned
length exceeds 2,000 chars.
Thanks
Peter

are u using oracle 7. varchar2 limit in 8 is 4000.

Display select list from query on manual tabular form

I got so frustrated I started over. I'm following the how to create a manual form.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/tabular_form.html#MANUAL
The problem I'm now having is even though I display items as hidden, there is a column holder on the report for them. If I go into the report attributes and toggle the show attribute off I cannot reference an items value in my logic. I used /&nbsp/ for the column heading but I still get the little sort arrow where the column heading should be. I tried to toggle the sort attribute off but the sort arrow still shows up. How can I use the apex_item.hidden and not get a place holder for the column on a report? Thanks, Elizabeth
Here is the code I'm using to generate the report:

Generic solution for cascading select lists/lovs

After implementing several times a select list/lov, which is depending on another item on the same page (see the AJAX example from Carl Backstrom), I thought that it was time to come up with a more generic solution where I don't have to implement javascript code and on-demand processes for each lov anymore.
I want to contribute my findings to the APEX community. More details about my solution can be found at
http://inside-apex.blogspot.com/2006/11/generic-solution-for-depending-select.html
Any feedback is welcome!

Hi Bjorn,
the "First schema provisioned" property is just available in "normal" workspaces, not in the "internal" workspace. But it's just the schema-name where the tables/... of your application are stored.
About your problem. Which version do you use? V2.0?
V2.0 doesn't have the APEX dictionary views, I think they have been created in V2.2.
So the only way to use my solution is to use the version which is stored into the FLOWS_... schema. But it has to be modified before.
1.) In the ApexLib.js file, all ocurrences of $x have to be replaced by html_GetElement => $x doesn't exist in V2.0
2.) Replace the FLOWS_020200 thru FLOWS_020000 in the header of the package (ApexLib_for_flows_020200.pks and .pkb)
3) Maybe you have to remove the where-clause restriction NVL(UPPER(ITEM_COMMENT), '@') NOT LIKE '%$APEXLIB_IGNORE_LOV$%', I'm not sure if the comment column exists in V2.0. Don't have a possibility to check that now.
I will come up with a solution on sunday or monday.

Interactive Report with Select List LOV's

Hi All -
I need to develop an Interactive Report which displays reports based on values selected from a select list (LOV's) on this IR report.
Following is what I am working on.
This page has 2 select lists with the corresponding LOV values:
Date From ==> Q1, 2010
Q2, 2010
Q3, 2010
Q4, 2010
Date To ==> Q1, 2010
Q2, 2010
Q3, 2010
Q4, 2010
When the user visits this report page first time, "Date From" and "Date To" select lists have null values and the report should display all the records.
Once the user selects values from "Date From" and "Date To" select lists then the report should be filtered based on the values selected i.e.
If the user selects *"Date From"* ==> Q1, 2010 and *"Date To"* ==> Q3, 2010, then the report should show all the records whose reporting period falls between "Jan 1, 2010" to "Sept 30, 2010" i.e Q1-Q3 2010 only.
And the Reporting date format stored in the table is "18-OCT-2010", "12-APR-2010" etc ....
How can this be achieved. Please share your expertise.
Thanks,
-Seenu

Hi,
First Create 2 Select List with List Of Queries in LOV Region like
+'STATIC2:Q1-2010;01-Jan-2010,Q2-2010;01-Apr-2010,Q3-2010;01-Jun-2010,Q4-2010;01-Oct-2010'+ in Date From List lets name it P10_DF and
+'STATIC2:Q1-2010;31-Mar-2010,Q2-2010;30-Jun-2010,Q3-2010;30-Jun-2010,Q4-2010;31-Dec-2010'+ in Date To List P10_DT.
(Enable Display Null Value on both the select list)
Then Now in the Report Source add Where Query some thing like
select FIELD1,FIELD2 from TBL_REPORTS where Report_Date>=NVL( *:P10_DF* ,'01-Jan-2010') and Report_Date<=NVL( *:P10_DT* ,'31-Dec-2010')
And also create a button to submit the values
NOTE: This is not tested but this is how i will come about it in the specified scenario. You can try this and post the results...
Good Luck.

Using Pipelined Functions

Hi,
Can any one please provide me a good example to try out pipelined function in oracle pl/sql ?
Thanks

I'm curious. In your biography you state "I am a software programmer working in IT field from last 7-8 years. I am a OCP in Application Development Track"
So how come that you are not familiar with Oracle Documentation and it's full text search capability, which would have given you a reference, such as this?

Trouble using ISBLANK Function

I am trying to calculate the days outstanding for payments.
Checked to see if an invoice date was entered (A)
If A had date entered I wanted to run various calculations on the dates.
What I started off with was:
IF(A = “*”, (Run Days to Payment Calculation), (Run Days Outstanding Calculation))
I thought that I could use the Asterix wildcard to determine if A2 was blank. But, that failed. I was looking at the ISBLANK function but did not see how to make that work.
FYI: Here is what I had planned for the other two calculations that are to be nested in the IF statement.
Days to Payment:
=DATEDIF(A, G2, “D”)
(G2=Payment Date)
Days Outstanding:
=DATEDIF(A, (NOW()), “D”)

What let you think that the asterisk behaves as a wildcard ?
The use of Functions is described (what a surprise) in "*iWork Formulas and Functions User Guide*" which every user may download thru the Help menu.
Here is a quick and dirty example.
=IF(ISBLANK(A),"the cell in column A is empty","the cell in column A is filled")

A select list from query question

Hello all - I've looked in detail at a great deal of posts on this subject and believe what I am trying to achieve is not unusual or out of scope. Therefore it's likely me mis-interpreting something and I'd be grateful for anybody's input.
I have the following as a column in a report
apex.select_list_from_query( 21,
          a.reserved_by,
          'select g.user_name,g.user_id
          from users g, user_roles h
     where g.user_id=h.user_id and h.role_id in (2,3)'
     , null ,
     'YES',
     '-1',
     '- Not Reserved -') slov1 ,
If 'reserved_by' is null, I want '- Not Reserved -' to appear in the select list, otherwise I want the value in user_name. Where reserved_by is not null, I get the appropriate user_name returning the appropriate user_id. Where reserved_by is null, I get null returning null in the select list.
'- Not Reserved -' which is the value I've tried to assign to p_null_text, also appears in the select list and returns '-1' . However '-Not Reserved-' only appears as an extra option, rather than becoming the display value for reserved by=null.
So, if the values in reserved_by are 'user1','user2' and null and the P_query returns
'user1',1
'user2',2
'user3',3
my select list for the row having reserved_by=NULL looks like
user1
user2
user3
- Not Reserved -
NULL (ie blank).
Following a suggestion in a thread from 2005(!), I changed the p_query to
'select g.user_name,g.user_id
from users g, user_roles h
where g.user_id=h.user_id
and h.role_id in (2,3) union ALL
SELECT ''- Not Reserved -'' user_name, 0 user_id from dual',
null, NO'
and set p_show_null to 'NO'. This achieves the functionality I want. So perhaps, though I can't figure out what I was doing wrong with the 'correct' usage. Anyway, I'll post this in case it proves useful to others!
Toby

Hi Apex Experts,
can some one suggest me an alternate way to achieving this. I really have no idea on how to take this forward. :(
Any help/pointers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Select List LOV will not accept query that seems to be valid

Hi,
I modified an LOV query to add the number of results to the display_value return column. I have verified that the query works in SQL Workshop/SQL Commands, but when I paste it into the LOV it will not save changes. It says the LOV query is invalid....
To get it to apply I had to turn it into a Named LOV, and the page would load, but I get the error:
Error: ORA-06550: line 1, column 77: PL/SQL: ORA-01744: inappropriate INTO ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored performing List of Values query:
The query I am trying to perform is:
select STATUS.STATUS_NAME||' ('||
(select count(*)
from TICKET
where TICKET.USER_ID = (select USER_ID from LOGIN where upper(LOGIN.USER_NAME) = upper(:APP_USER))
and TICKET.STATUS_ID = STATUS.STATUS_ID)||')' display_value,
STATUS.STATUS_ID return_value
from STATUS
order by STATUS_ID
Here are the results when ran in SQL Commands:
DISPLAY_VALUE RETURN_VALUE
Defined (7) 0
Accepted (1) 1
In Process (0) 2
Completed (1) 3
Cancelled (0) 4
Thanks in advance for any help.

David,
Try the following and let me know what you get:
SELECT status.status_name || ' (' ||
   (SELECT COUNT(*)
    FROM ticket
    WHERE ticket.user_id IN
      (SELECT user_id
       FROM login
       WHERE UPPER(login.user_name) = UPPER(:app_user))
   AND ticket.status_id = status.status_id)
|| ')' display_value,
   status.status_id return_value
FROM status
ORDER BY status_idAlso, if you find you're using the user's id a lot, I would recommend creating an application level item called USER_ID (make it protected). Then I would add a little code in the post authentication process that sets the value of that item.
I'm not sure that there would really be much of a performance benefit, but you would have effectively SPODified (Single Point of Definition) the lookup allowing you to reference it where ever you need making your code look better and the maintenance easier.
Then the query would look like this:
SELECT status.status_name || ' (' ||
   (SELECT COUNT(*)
    FROM ticket
    WHERE ticket.user_id = :USER_ID)
   AND ticket.status_id = status.status_id)
|| ')' display_value,
   status.status_id return_value
FROM status
ORDER BY status_idRegards,
