Update Changed Columns Only

How to generate a form with a data block with the "Update Changed Columns Only" property set to "yes" from Designer 9.0.4.6? Is there an equivalent for this property in Designer? Or do I have to create a library object which I then have to subclass from?
Thanks in advance
Gerald

Hi Gerald
When you look in the help of Designer (Generated data block properties (implicit/explicit)), the Forms property "Update Changed Columns Only" is not mentioned. That implies that there is no property/preference in Desinger that will influence the value of this Forms property.
So yes, you have to create a library object and subclass from it.
Another solution is to work with the Forms built-ins GET_BLOCK_PROPERTY and SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY in a Pre_Form trigger, but I personally would prefer a new library object for this.
Kind regards,

  • What property/preference sets block property "Update changed columns only"

    Hi, we are wondering how Designer (latest version 10.1.2.4) desides when it generates a form with block property "Update changed columns only" set to Yes.
    Under some cricumstances this property is No in the generated .fmb
    We checked the object library, but the .olb has this property set to No, so Designer overrules it.
    Our goal is to generate all blocks with the "Update changed columsn only" set to No, because we ran in a forms bug that it can't handle Insert statements on blocks with this property set to Yes (ORA-01036). This bug only occurs in the latest forms version 10.1.2.3
    Hope anyone can help to force this property to be No when we want to achieve 100% generation from Designer.
    Kind Regards

    I think that's not possible in designer. You could define a block with this property set in the template form or in the object library. The use this block use the template/library object property in designer.

  • Block based on Stored Procedure - Update Changed columns only

    If I were to base a block on stored procedures that includes an Update procedure but only update SOME of the updateable columns, what happens?
    Does the Form send to server ONLY
    1) The rows that were updated
    2) The columns that updated
    3) All columns in the row being updated regardless of whether they were updated
    Is the correct answer 1) + 2) or 1) + 3)
    Please help.

  • Update-changed-fields-only tag

    I have a problem using the "update-changed-fields-only" tag in oc4j v 9.0.2.0.0:
    I set it on true but it still make the update on ALL the entity fields :(
    This is a real problem when I made independent changes on different fields of the same record in one method using different instances of a entity bean: the container makes a final update on ALL the fields losing changes I previousely made in the method.
    Is there a way to avoid this?
    Thanks

  • UPDATE multiple columns with conditional SET parameters

    I have a procedure that updates multiple columns of a table using the procedure's parameter. Is it possible to have one update statement with conditional SET parameter?

    TERM NUMBER,
    TRANS_CD CHAR(2));
    INSERT INTO TEMP VALUES (1, '1 AUG 2009', 12, 'NB');

    Hi,
    You certainly don't want to issue separate UPDATE statements for every column; that will be really inefficent.
    SQL has several ways to implement IF-THEN-ELSE logic. CASE is the most versatile, but NVL will do everything you need for this job. You can use one of those to set a column to itself (and therefore not really update that column) when appropriate.
    For example:
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE TMP_PROC (
      pPOL_NUM   IN       NUMBER,
      pOED          IN   DATE,
      pTERM          IN   NUMBER,
      pTRANS_CD  IN       CHAR
    AS
    BEGIN
         UPDATE  temp
         SET     oed      = NVL (poed,       oed)
         ,     term      = NVL (pterm,       term)
         ,     trans_cd = NVL (ptrans_cd, trans_cd)
         WHERE     pol_num      = ppol_num;
      COMMIT;     -- Maybe
    END    tmp_proc;"EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL" is almost always a bad idea. If there's an error, don't you want to know about it? Shouldn't you at least log a message in a warnings table or something?
    Think careflully about whether or not you want to COMMIT every time you call this procedure.
    Just as it's inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every column, it's also inefficient to issue a separate UPDATE statement for every row. If efficiency is important, it should be possible to UPDATE several rows in a single UPDATE statement, using NVL (or CASE, or COALESCE, or NULLIF, or NVL2, or ...).
    This was a very well-written question! Thanks for providing the CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, and such a clear explanation.

  • Capture change on certain columns only in ODI,

    Hi experts:
    Need you help to suggest the proper way to meet the following requirements.
    Requirements”
    (a) Source– Oracle 11g, need to track changes to 2 columns only - [Table A, Column A1] & [Table B, Column B1]. These 2 columns may be changed many times during a day.
    (b) Every 4 hours, based on what are captured from (a), find out the distinct rows changed (i.e. based on primary keys of Table A, Table B) , and only ship the most current row images for these rows to target
    (c) Target – Sybase, meet to perform transformations on the 2 column values (i.e. Column A1, Column B1) to map to target table [Table C, Column C1]
    From my limited understanding, I think trigger-based CDC is to be used. However, not sure how to do this , especially (a) and (b). For example, where do we configure trigger logic to achieve (a) from the ODI studio ?
    Your help is much appreciated.

    (c) Target – Sybase, meet to perform transformations on the 2 column values (i.e. Column A1, Column B1) to map to target table [Table C, Column C1]To be honest the target is irrelvant, you just need to decide if you want to do the transformation on the source on the way out of oracle (set staging area different to target and choose your Source logical schema).
    I would design an interface that uses Table A and Table B as the sources, do the join , transformation on Oracle and map to Target Table C, choose your staging area based on where you want the joins / transformation to take place, pick a Knowlege module based on Technology and how you want to update the target.

For example, where do we configure trigger logic to achieve (a) from the ODI studio ?You can use Synchronous (Trigger based) or Asynchronous (Logminer / Streams based) to perform what you want, see this nice guide on setting up CDC and consuming the changes :
    http://soainfrastructure.blogspot.ie/2009/02/setting-up-oracle-data-integrator-odi.html
    If your friendly with your source system DBA then I prefer Asynchronous CDC , its less intrusive than triggers, it does however need a bit of knowledge on how to monitor it, Metalink / Support has plenty of info.
    >
    Your help is much appreciated.You welcome, have a play with it in a demo environment and get a feel for how you consume the captured changes (Lock Subscriber, Extend Window, Consume, Purge + Unlock, Loop) etc.
    The guide I've linked to uses an ODI WAit for Data to trigger the consumption of changes, you have stated every 4 hours so I would skip the ODI wait for data and simply schedule your package to run every 4 hours.

    The first thing to do with a second-hand computer is to erase the internal drive and install a clean copy of OS X. You — not the previous owner — must do that. How you do it depends on the model, and on whether you already own another Mac. If you're not sure of the model, enter the serial number on this page. Then find the model on this page to see what OS version was originally installed.
    1. You don't own another Mac.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, you need a boxed and shrink-wrapped retail Snow Leopard (OS X 10.6) installation disc from the Apple Store or a reputable reseller — not from eBay or anything of the kind. If the machine has less than 1 GB of memory, you'll need to add more in order to install 10.6. Preferably, install as much memory as it can take, according to the technical specifications.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.6, you need the installation media that came with it: gray installation discs, or a USB flash drive for some MacBook Air models. For early MBA models, you may need a USB optical drive or Remote Disc. You should have received the media from the previous owner, but if you didn't, order replacements from Apple. A retail disc, or the gray discs from another model, will not work.
    To boot from an optical disc or a flash drive, insert it, then reboot and hold down the C key at the startup chime. Release the key when you see the gray Apple logo on the screen.
    If the machine shipped with OS X 10.7 or later, you don't need media. It should boot into Internet Recovery mode when you hold down the key combination option-command-R at the startup chime. Release the keys when you see a spinning globe.
    2. You do own another Mac.
    If you already own another Mac that was upgraded in the App Store to the version of OS X that you want to install, and if the new Mac is compatible with it, then you can install it. Use Recovery Disk Assistant to create a bootable USB device and boot the new Mac from it by holding down the C key at the startup chime. Alternatively, if you have a Time Machine backup of OS X 10.7.3 or later on an external hard drive (not a Time Capsule or other network device), you can boot from that by holding down the option key and selecting it from the row of icons that appears. Note that if your other Mac was never upgraded in the App Store, you can't use this method.
    Once booted in Recovery, launch Disk Utility and select the icon of the internal drive — not any of the volume icons nested beneath it. In the Partition tab, select the default options: a GUID partition table with one data volume in Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format. This operation will permanently remove all existing data on the drive.
    After partitioning, quit Disk Utility and run the OS X Installer. You will need the Apple ID and password that you used to upgrade. When the installation is done, the system will automatically reboot into the Setup Assistant, which will prompt you to transfer the data from another Mac, its backups, or from a Windows computer. If you have any data to transfer, this is usually the best time to do it.
    Then run Software Update and install all available system updates from Apple. To upgrade to a major version of OS X newer than 10.6, get it from the Mac App Store. Note that you can't keep an upgraded version that was installed by the previous owner. He or she can't legally transfer it to you, and without the Apple ID you won't be able to update it in Software Update or reinstall, if that becomes necessary. The same goes for any App Store products that the previous owner installed — you have to repurchase them.
    3. Other issues
    If you see a lock screen when trying to boot from installation media or in Recovery mode, then a firmware password was set by the previous owner, or the machine was remotely locked via iCloud. You'll either have to contact the owner or take the machine to an Apple Store or another authorized service provider to be unlocked. You may be asked for proof of ownership.
    If the previous owner "accepted" the bundled iLife applications (iPhoto, iMovie, and Garage Band) in the App Store so that he or she could update them, then they're linked to that Apple ID and you won't be able to download them without buying them. Reportedly, Mac App Store Customer Service has sometimes issued redemption codes for these apps to second owners who asked.
    If the previous owner didn't deauthorize the computer in the iTunes Store under his Apple ID, you wont be able to  authorize it immediately under your ID. In that case, you'll either have to wait up to 90 days or contact iTunes Support.
    When trying to create a new iCloud account, you might get a failure message: "Account limit reached." Apple imposes a limit of three iCloud account setups per device. Erasing the device does not reset the limit. You can still use an account that was created on another device, but you won't be able to create a new one. Contact iCloud Support for more information.

  • How do i set drive to update changes only when same name files are added

    I Want to set up an external drive to update changes only when same name files are dragged from desktop can any one help?

    That's still a little ambiguous. What recording software are you using?
    Usually the individual sound files in a music project file are included in a separate folder. For example, GarageBand normally hides these files inside a single Project file in the Finder, but you can right-click and Show Package Contents to see the individual audio files.
    Any of those backup utilities I mentioned will be smart enough to copy the new and changed files within the project file. In the Terminal these .band files are actually directories, just like .app Applications in the Finder are actually directories. I think Finder may actually handle it properly also, but I'm not really sure what the Finder will do when you re-copy a GarageBand project folder to an existing backup copy and only some of the audio files have changed.

  • How do I only update changes to a page and not everything?

    I would like to only update changes to my music page ex. text or layout, and not have to sit and wait for everything like photos and mp3's to re-upload all over again. This process takes like 30 minutes when all i need to update is the text.
    Is there a way to have iWeb only update things that were changed to the site and leave things that weren't touched alone?

    sjam:
    Unfortunately you're out of luck. Publishing to a folder forces a complete publication of the entire site. When using a .Mac account iWeb can determine that only one page needs uploading and acts accordingly. With a 3rd party site iWeb can't tell if it's been published before. It's the nature of the beast.

  • Cannot change column size in iPod Classic

    I received my Classic today and transferred over all my music. After making changes to various things, I tried to adjust the size of the columns. I cannot.
    I was able to delete a column, then re-add it then change the size. In my 5th Gen Video ipod I could just but the cursor on the right side of the column and click, it would adjust to the size of the largest, Name, Artist, Album etc. I am able to change column sizes in itunes, just not the ipod.
    I've looked through threads to find something that resembles my problem but most seem to be with itunes and not the ipod. Both computers I use are updated to 7.4.1
    I was wondering if I restore the factory settings would I be able to change the column sizes without having to delete and re-add them? Or is this another new lovely and VERY annoying update to itunes/ipod?
    Thanks.

    I can confirm that it's not (specifically) your iPod and it's not your OS. I'm running the newest iTunes through Mac OS 10.3.9 with a 3G iPod and just made a playlist with the same problems. NONE OF MY OTHER PLAYLISTS are affected - the columns there adjust just fine, but any NEW playlists I generate on my iPod will not allow me to individually adjust columns. Right-clicking on a column header does not even allow me to "Auto Size Column", but only to affect ALL the columns, or choose a column to add or remove.
    Interestingly enough - new playlists I generate in iTunes (not on the iPod) work normally. However, it isn't feasible for my 10GB hard drive to automatically sync with my 15GB iPod, so I can't test and see if dragging a playlist to the iPod will generate one with alterable columns.
    My opinion is that this is in some way related to the 7.4 or 7.4.1 update. I believe I last generated a playlist before the 7.4 update, and had no problems.

  • Dynamically change column heading without Dashboard Prompt

    Hi All,
    My requirement is change the column heading dynamically in a report. I have achieved this through setting the presentation variable to the dashboard prompt.
    I have 5 columns in the dashboard prompt. Out of these 5 columns, I want to use only 1 column as dashboard prompt.
    But still I want to dynamically change the column heading of the other 4 columns based on the only 1 column selected in the dashboard prompt.
    Is there anyway to achieve this?

    You need to have some logic to change other 4 columns based on 1 selected column.. where you want put that logic?

  • Updating the column of a table

    Hello Gurur,
    I have two tables they are
    Test & emp_op
    Desc  empop
    - empid
    -id_num
    -node_num
    _Desc Test
    -id_num
    -node_num
    -name
    -addr
    -empid
    Now i m trying to update the column empid in test table, copying as it is from empid column of emp_op table . Below is the query i have wriiten to update
    update test e
    set e.empid = (select t.empid from emp_op t
    where t.id_num = e.id_num and
    t.node_num = e.node_num );
    But it gives me an error ORA-01427: single-row subquery returns more than one row. any idea why ??
    if not, is there is any way i can accomplish this task in a different way ??
    Thank you so much. I appriciate it!!

    Hi,
    That means some row (maybe more than one) in test matches two or more rows in emp_op.
    What do you want to do in that case? Post some sample data (from both tables, relevant columns only) and the results you want to see in test after the UPDATE.
    If you know that all the matching rows in emp_op will have the same empid, you can just change SELECT in the sub-query to SELECT DISTINCT .

  • Update a column using a connect by or other for hierachical relationships

    I have a column which represents the 'order' of which a record loaded out of a table.
    This 'order' is coming in wrong.
    I know, because of a relatoinship between two of the columns what the correct order should be.
    So for example if I do this:
    select transid, laborcode, supervisorfrom enclabor_iface
    connect by prior laborcode = supervisor
    start with supervisor = 0;
    I get all the records in the correct order... but of course I'd like to figure out how to use this in an update statement to update the transid columns, which is the order.
    Can someone tell me if this is possible, and if so, how to do so?
    I have tried a few things with no luck yet, as the attempt took over 15 minutes to run so I thought I had coded it badly.
    thanks
    Jeff

    Hi, Jeff,
    Sure, that's possible.
    The ROWNUM pseudo-column is assigned as the CONNECT BY clause (including ORDER SIBLINGS BY) is being applied, so you can use ROWNUM to capture the hierarchical order.
    I don't have a copy of your table, so I'll use scott.emp to illustrate:
    SELECT       ename, empno, mgr
    ,       ROWNUM          AS r_num
    FROM       scott.emp
    START WITH     mgr     IS NULL
    CONNECT BY     mgr     = PRIOR EMPNO
    ORDER SIBLINGS BY     ename
    ;Output:
    ENAME      EMPNO   MGR      R_NUM
    KING        7839                1
    BLAKE       7698  7839          2
    ALLEN       7499  7698          3
    JAMES       7900  7698          4
    MARTIN      7654  7698          5
    TURNER      7844  7698          6
    WARD        7521  7698          7
    CLARK       7782  7839          8
    MILLER      7934  7782          9
    JONES       7566  7839         10
    FORD        7902  7566         11
    SMITH       7369  7902         12
    SCOTT       7788  7566         13
    ADAMS       7876  7788         14The default CONNECT BY ordering guarantees that (for example) all of BLAKEs descendants will come after BLAKE and before anyone who is not a descendant of BLAKE. However, it says nothing about whether BLAKE will come before JONES, or vice-versa. If that's important, use ORDER SIBLINGS BY.
    To store those numbers in your table, do the query above in a MERGE statement.
    I hope this answers your question.
    If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all tables involved, and also post the results you want from that data.
    If you're asking about a DML statement, such as MERGE, the sample data will be the contents of the table(s) before the DML, and the results will be state of the changed table(s) when everything is finished.
    Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
    Always say which version of Oracle you're using.
