Updated, inserted, deleted records

Hello,
Oracle 10g R 2
Is there anyway to find the updated, deleted, or inserted records in a table?

i need to log all the modifications done on table, (update, delete or insert) in another table
is there any thing to give me all the modified records, for example between sysdate -1 and sysdate?If you have a copy of "previous" data and the "current" data then you can use SQL set operations (MINUS, INTERSECT etc.) to determine which data has been inserted, updated and deleted.
If you don't actually record the inserts, updates and deletes as they happen, there is some possibility of using the archive logging of the database and then log mining to find out what happened to the data, but that data is only available for a limited time (assuming archive logging is enabled for the tables).
Essentially, if you don't have a historic copy of the data and you don't record the changes as they happen yourself, getting the information is going to be very tricky.

Access is not inserting, updating or deleting records in my database table on the server

I am having a problem with an application I developed using Dreamweaver 8 and Access 2000 several years ago which is no longer working correctly. The problem is that Access is not inserting, updating or deleting records in my database table on the server but is reflected in changes to my Web site. I used the Dreamweaver server behaviors: insert record, update record and delete record to make the changes to my Access table on the server. My Access table on the server shows all of the records I inserted or updated in the past, but not any of the newly inserted on updated records.
does any one have any ideas as to what my problem is?
Jim

No, that has nothing to do with your problem. Let's make sure I understand the symptoms.
1) Your site is online at a remote host.
2) You use a dynamic page in your online site to update a database record (insert, delete, or update)
3) The update then appears correctly on your dynamic content page.
4) You download the mdb and it appears to not have any of the upates you just made.
Please correct any of these statements if they are wrong.
If the above is correct, then you must be looking at a cached mdb, or the mdb you are looking at is in the wrong location. Do this: search your entire drive for copies of the mdb, including in the Windows temp directories which is likely where the cached copy is located. Delete any extra copies and download again.

How to update or delete records in a Complex View in Forms?

Hi,
I have a requirement to create a Form by using Complex View. Insertion is possible but updation and deletion is not working properly . I got FRM-40501 Error. I need How to update or delete records in a Complex View in Forms?
Thanks & Regards,
Hari Babu

Depending on how complex your view is, forms is not able to determine how to appropiately lock a record, when you try to update or delete a record.
One approach to using complex views in forms:
1. Set the Key-mode of the block to "Non-Updateable"
2. Mark the column which can be used to build the WHERE-condition to uniquely identify a record with "Primary Key" = "Yes"
3. For doing INSERT, UPDATE and DELETE, create an INSTEAD-OF-trigger on the view.
4. Create your own ON-LOCK-trigger in forms which does the locking of the records to update.

Update/insert/delete data from xcelsius to Database via web service

Hi,
I need to create dashboard that go function can update/insert/delete data send to Database thru web services, as i know got 2 xcelsius add-on software which support those of function InfoBurst and flynet 
InfoBurst
http://www.infosol.com/azbocug/minutes/4-Writeback%20to%20a%20Database%20with%20Xcelsius.pdf
flynet 
http://www.flynetviewer.com/public/community/Blogs/FlynetXcelsiusServerUser/default.aspx
Except this 2 purchase add-on xcelsius, any other solution ?
Maybe need to write some in MSSQL or C# programming which enable insert, update, delete ...etc ?
*note: i not use Xcelsius Engage Server , i use Xcelsius Engage only
thanks,

Hi,
As of now in Xcelsius/Dashboard Design there is no feature or functionality to insert/update/delete data from database.
Solution:
Create a Web service in let’s say C# or Java, which will perform insert/update/delete operation.
In Xcelsius add Web Service connection and user above web service.
Xcelsius Web Service connection provides option to pass input values to a Web Service (Input Pane) and get the result (Output values pane).
We can pass values to be written to the database as a input to Web Service via Web Service connection from Xcelsius and write data to the database.
Note:
Performing delete operation from Xcelsius Dashboard could be risky and may delete important data from database. I would not prefer giving delete option/functionality in Xcelsius dashboard.
Hope this helps!
Thank you.

What's the exact trigger for when updating/inserting/deleting data from one DB to another DB which contains same info?

Hi guys,
I have created a copy of the AdventureWorks2012 DB called AdventureWorks2012_new on the same instance.
I have created the following trigger below but my friend who is a DBA told me that this is not correct and I should be using the inserted table when creating this trigger. I would like AdventureWorks2012_new DB to be updating/inserting/deleting data from
the same tables that have been updated/inserted/deleted in the AdventureWorks2012 DB. How exactly should I do this for all the tables in the whole database ? What I have written below is just for one of the tables, is there a quicker way to do it for all tables
in this DB so that it performs the actions mentioned above, automatically ? Help would be greatly appreciated so I can understand how this works, thanks
CREATE TRIGGER [HumanResources].[tr_HumanResources_AfterUpdate]
ON [AdventureWorks2012].[HumanResources].[Department]
AFTER UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
UPDATE AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department
SET Name = t2.Name,
GroupName = t2.GroupName,
ModifiedDate = t2.ModifiedDate
FROM AdventureWorks2012.HumanResources.Department AS t2
INNER JOIN AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department AS t1
ON t2.DepartmentID = t1.DepartmentID
END

For insert it's easy:
CREATE TRIGGER [HumanResources].[tr_HumanResources_AfterInsert]
ON [AdventureWorks2012].[HumanResources].[Department]
AFTER INSERT
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
Insert INTO AdventureWorks2012_new.HumanResources.Department
(DepartmentID, Name, GroupName, ModifiedDate)
SELECT DepartmentID, Name, GroupName, ModifiedDate
FROM Inserted;
END
I didn't verify column names, so you may need to make sure to use correct column names for that table.

How to update and delete records in a text file?

Hi,
I had a text file in which contains records line by line with ',' as delimiter as I use stringtokenizer and vector to read the data.
The format in the text file likes: Name, Sex, Age.
I want to add 2 functions:
(1) update the record by name, sex or age;
(2) delete the whole line of record;
Do I need to open a temp text file to do it?
And, what is the algorithm can be suggested?
For both of them, I want to firstly read the total line numbers. Then, the line number + Name, Sex, Age will be displayed on the console window. User can choose which line of record to update or delete.
Or, user can search name in order to do that.
But, what is the backend algorithm to handle it? If I have 10 lines of record, I want to delete 7th line, the 7th line of the text file will be blanked. How can I move 8th, 9th and 10th lines of records up by one line in order to fill the blank line?
Do I need to copy the first 6 lines to a temp text file and copy the last 3 lines of records to the same temp file first? and then copy all the content of that temp file back to the original text file? If so, how can I copy the same format of the original file (with '\n') to the temp file? I need the same data structure likes Name, Sex, Age.
However, when I add records, I need to append the text in the original text file, not override it's current content.
Any advice?
Thanks

If your file is not designed to be amazingly large, then you don't need to use a temporary file -- you can just read the data into memory and manipulate it there. (Like, into a Document object or something.)
But if you are dealing with really large files, you might want to consider using a database back end instead of a text file, which is a completely different approach I know but... well, that's why databases were invented.

Updating and deleting records in access DB

i'm trying to make multiple updates and deletes in a access DB and it doesn't work.
my program executes lot's of updates and delete statements when saving, but I only commit in the end when I know all the statements finished ok.
I can't make it a batch update since I need to retrieve the auto-number that access issues me on some of my tables.
I know it's kinda fuzzy, but my program is SO big already, and I can't really put the code in here - it wouldn't do much good.
what I will do is write what my log shows (i issue a log output whenever there's a executeQuery/Update and before commit/rollback

DEV : 29/04/03 : commit

sure - I don't get any exception. the data just
doesn't show in the DB. (no updating/deletion of
records)
as I wrote before - when the the programm commits the
changes and does the next select command it seems as
if the data was changed/deleted but if I check the DB
with access or if I restart the prgoram then I see
that the data didn't change.
Access/jdbc-odbc has a problem where modifications are not 'commited' when the statement completes. Instead one must do one of the following:
1. Explicit commit.
2. Simple select after statement.
3. Close the connection.
Presumably you are doing 1.
Since other than this it does work, it suggests one of the following.
1. Something is wrong with your environment. For instance you are looking at the wrong database. Or not refreshing. Or something else like that.
2. You are using something besides a simple connection - like opening it with 'scroll insensitive'.
3. The complexity is causing it to lose an error message. This can be tested by doing each statement individually and verify that none produce an error.
4. Maybe you found a bug. You can turn on ODBC tracing via the applet panel and see if digging through all of the detail provides any clues (you can also do this with 3 above.)

Settings for update/insert new records

Hi everybody,
I'm at the beggining of learning the OWB in order to create a Data Warehouse environment.
I have successfully created a table in the target schema , which is a match of columns found in 4 tables in the source schema.
Which settings(steps) are necessary in order to update some records according to the update done in 4 tables in source schema , which have already been inserted in the table in target schema- using the execute pop-up menu command?
Additionally , how can I insert only the new records to the target schema by using the execute command in pop-up menu ...
Thanks , a lot
Simon

Hi Simon,
If you have constraints set on your target table, and the operator properties are set to "Match by Constraints = All Constraints", then the process recognizes automatically when to update which fields and when to insert new records.
If you have no constraints on your target then the operator properties are set to"Match by Constraints = No Constraints", and in this case you should set the Loading properties for each attribute (Field) in the target table.
Greetings,

Materialized Views: how can I find the number of updates, inserts, delete

We are using Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Prod.
In a materialized view, with fast incremental refresh, done after every 5 minutes automatically, I want to store in a logging table the number of rows inserted,updated and deleted in the materialized view by that refresh.
One option is to create a job that should read the materialized view log table just before the refresh and store the required information in the logging table. But this information may not be accurate.
Is there any other way to collect this information for each refresh?

Use auditing, or an before insert/update/delete trigger, that updates a counter
I hate myself for giving this advice, because it will bring you problems, with the MV update/refresh speed, table lock contention on the log-table....
Be carefull !!
Why not use auditing on the source table and why does anyone wants to know the number of changes??

How to create a stored procedure that contains all 3 AFTER Triggers Update/Insert/Delete ?

Hi guys, I'm trying to create a Stored procedure that will automatically add all 3 After triggers when executed on any given database, can someone please explain and give an example on how do I go about doing this ? I'd also like it to raise any errors
that may come across, thanks in advance.

Lets start with the question why do you need the triggers at all. Since SQL Server 2005 we can use an OUTPUT clause.
This code can be re-written in SQL Server 2005 using the OUTPUT clause like below:
create table itest ( i int identity not null primary key, j int not null unique )
create table #new ( i int not null, j int not null)
insert into itest (j)
output inserted.i, inserted.j into #new
select o.object_id from sys.objects as o
select * from #new
drop table #new, itest;
go
Now from this example, you can see the integration of OUTPUT clause with existing DML syntax.
Another common scenario is auditing of data in a table using triggers. In this case, the trigger uses information from the inserted and updated tables to add rows into the audit tables. The example below shows code that uses OUTPUT clause in UPDATE and DELETE
statements to insert rows into an audit table.
create table t ( i int not null );
create table t_audit ( old_i int not null, new_i int null );
insert into t (i) values( 1 );
insert into t (i) values( 2 );
update t
set i = i + 1
output deleted.i, inserted.i into t_audit
where i = 1;
delete from t
output deleted.i, NULL into t_audit
where i = 2;
select * from t;
select * from t_audit;
drop table t, t_audit;
go

Delta update for deleted records

Hi,
I use delta update for my data. As destination I use ODS object and this ODS contains two keys: key1 and key2. On step of preparing data for extraction, key2 is lost(we can't determine it) - key1 is known only.
I'm finding a way how to update ODS by deleted records('D' update mode) if this records contain only key1 value(key2 is empty). I need to delete all records with key1 only, key2 is not important for this update.
Is it possible to set key2 some BW specific value, which will be accepted as equal for old key2 values ?
Or some other standart ways are known for this situation ?
Thanks in advance,
Fiodar.

I would use the update rules to read the active data table of the ODS. There you can read all the key2 values for a given key1.
If you get one row with key1 filled and key2 = '*' (for example you could split it into multiple records, one per key2. A sample coding might look like:
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE into l_d_data_package.
IF key2 = '*'.
    DELETE DATA_PACKAGE.
    SELECT * FROM /BIC/AMY_ODS00 INTO l_d_my_ods
      WHERE key1 = l_d_data_package-key1.
      l_d_data_package-key2 = l_d_my_ods-key2.
      append l_d_data_package to DATA_PACKAGE.
    ENDSELECT.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.

Help with update,add, delete records

Hi every one,
This is a problems that I have been trying to figure out for
a little while now and I hope you all can help me out. So this is
the situation.
I am useing CFX XLS 2 Query to create a query from an excel
doc I have. Now my problem is how can I loop through and delete the
records that no longer are in the spreadsheet?
So in other words my client will be uploading a new XLS each
day, this xls will have some new data, some of the same and some
will be gone. So I need the system to check and see if the
stocknumber is there, if it is it will just update that record, now
if the record is new it will add the record but for the life of me
I can't figure out how it can delete record.
I had thought maybe doing a select where the stock numbers
dont match but that didnt work out too well :)
Thanks for any help you may be able to provide

You could consider using ValueList() to create a list of
stocknumbers from your excel query, then do something like this:
<cfset sCurrentStockNumbers =
ValueList(myQuery.stocknumber)>
<cfquery name="removeStockNumbers"
datasource="myDataSource">
DELETE from myTable
WHERE stocknumber NOT IN (<cfqueryparam
value="#sCurrentStockNumbers#" list="Yes">)
</cfquery>

Update/Insert/Delete into the same table

Hi,
I'm writing pl/sql code :
nvoice_id will be passed as parameter and based on invoice_id I need to see whether any records exist in history table.If not any then insert record into table.If more than one record exist then I need delete all except most recent one based hist_seq column in that table.
Then I need to update that record for description column .How to put dml operation one after another in an efficient manner?As one statement depend on another do I need to use autonomous transaction?
Thanks,
Kiran

begin
select max(hist_seq)

from your_table
where invoice_id = p_invoice_id;
if l_max_hist_seq is not null
then
   delete from your_table
   where invoice_id = p_invoice_id
   and hist_seq != l_max_hist_seq;
   update your_table set some_columns = some_new_value

   and hist_seq = l_max_hist_seq;
else
   insert into your_table () values ();
