Updating a column from other table

Hi all,
I have a simple update query problem. I have four tables
activist(activist_id,first_name,last_name,c_state),
membership(activist_id,g_n_id),
group_network(g_n_id,g_n_type_id),
school_grop_det(g_n_id,state). For some records in activist table the c_state column is null, i want to update that column with state column of school_group_det table.
Here is the query for the states which are null
select distinct a.activist_id,a.first_name,a.last_name,
a.c_state,sd.state from activist a,membership m,
group_network g,school_group_det sd where
a.activist_id=m.activist_id and g.g_n_id=m.g_n_id and
g.g_n_id=sd.g_N_id and a.c_state is null and g.g_n_type_id='1001'
order by a.activist_id
I got the activist_id,first_name,last_name,c_state from activist and state from school_group_det. now i as i told you want to update the c_state with state column of school_group_Det table.
Pleae any one help me

How to update multiple columns from different tables using cursor.

Hi,
i have two tables test1 and test2. i want to udpate the column(DEPT_DSCR) of both the tables TEST1 and TEST2 using select for update and current of...using cursor.
I have a code written as follows :
DECLARE
v_mydept1 TEST1.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
v_mydept2 TEST2.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
CURSOR C1 IS SELECT TEST1.DEPT_CD,TEST2.DEPT_CD FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE TEST1.DEPT_CD = TEST2.DEPT_CD AND TEST1.DEPT_CD = 'AA' FOR UPDATE OF TEST1.DEPT_DSCR,TEST2.DEPT_DSCR;
BEGIN
OPEN C1;
     LOOP
          FETCH C1 INTO v_mydept1,v_mydept2;
          EXIT WHEN C1%NOTFOUND;
          UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
          UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
     END LOOP;
     COMMIT;
END;
The above code when run says that it runs successfully. But it does not updates the desired columns[DEPT_DSCR].
It only works when we want to update single or multiple columns of same table...i.e. by providing these columns after "FOR UPDATE OF"
I am not sure what is the exact problem when we want to update multiple columns of different tables.
Can anyone help me on this ?

oops my mistake.....typo mistake...it should have been as follows --
UPDATE TEST1 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
Now here is the upated PL/SQL code where we are trying to update columns of different tables --
DECLARE
v_mydept1 TEST1.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
v_mydept2 TEST2.DEPT_CD%TYPE;
CURSOR C1 IS SELECT TEST1.DEPT_CD,TEST2.DEPT_CD FROM TEST1,TEST2 WHERE TEST1.DEPT_CD = TEST2.DEPT_CD AND TEST1.DEPT_CD = 'AA' FOR UPDATE OF TEST1.DEPT_DSCR,TEST2.DEPT_DSCR;
BEGIN
OPEN C1;
LOOP
FETCH C1 INTO v_mydept1,v_mydept2;
EXIT WHEN C1%NOTFOUND;
UPDATE TEST1 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL1' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
UPDATE TEST2 SET DEPT_DSCR = 'PLSQL2' WHERE CURRENT OF C1;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END;
Please let us know why it is not updating by using using CURRENT OF

Have a look at the Business Intelligence platform RESTful Web Service Developer Guide, section 3.4.7 (p. 197) - Report structure: getting and updating the structure (specifications) of a report, may be a good place to start(?).

Updating a column of a table

Hi all
I have a problem in updating one column in the target table(say table A) from a column in the source table (say table B).
All the columns in table A has been populated. Just one column should be populated. My source is a SQL object that contains a complex sql query that returns three columns date_from, date_to and ID.
In the table A, I have the same date_from and date_to and need to get the ID from the SQL object and set it to the corresponding ID in the table A.
I tried many ways to update the table, but it I couldn't ;(
I should read from a table and update it based on a look-up function mapped to the column I need to update.
I want to map the ID colmn from table A to a look-up ext function that can get the column from the table B. However I don't know how to use the Data Services objects to just update 1 column. If you could give me a consequence of the DS objects to be update a table based on a look-up , I would be so grateful.
Thanks.

Your dataflow should look like this :
1) Source = the SQL transform with date_from, date_to and ID as columns.
2) Next add a query (copy all columns from schema in to schema out) and set date_from and date_to as keys. Also make sure column names exactly match the column names in your target table, if not rename them in this query.
3) Add a Map_Operation transform that maps all "normal" operation codes to "update"
4) Finally add your target table and in the properties/options set "use input keys" to yes (or checked).
This will generate UPDATE statements for all columns used in the query with a WHERE clause based on the keys defined in the query (date_from, date_to).

Including column from fact table reduces number of rows returned

Hello
I am facing this issue where in a report I select 5 columns from a fact table. Out of these five columns one of the column is "Amount" for which the aggregation rule is defined as Sum in RPD.
When I include these five column and filter results based on some criterion , I get all the rows (three rows) that satisfy the criterion. No I add a sixth column to my report and suddenly I only see one row returned by my report. Addition of this sixth column does not affect the criterion as the criterion is not based on this column. But this sixth column is a calculated column.
I tried different things but because the report was just getting columns from one table (fact) and suddenly inclusion of one column leads to reduction in number of rows , I was unable to find any reason why would that happen.
So I thought that some one in community may know that in what scenario this happens.
Thanks

Are there any repeated values? I'm wondering if what you're seeing is actually suppression of repetition in the results. Edit the analysis, go to the criteria tab, click column properties, go to the Column Format tab, and change the setting for value suppression from 'Suppress" to "Repeat". Repeat for each of your 6 columns and check the outcome.
Otherwise, I would try testing with other calculations and also bring in some columns from dimension tables to see how this affects the result. You should be able to come up with a case-by-case scenario to work out exactly what causes the rows to be suppressed which will get us one step to closer to working out why the rows get suppressed.
Thanks,
George

Delete a column from the table

Hi.
I would like to delete a column from a table. I want to drop the table and recreate it later. But this table has a primary key which
is a foreign key of other tables. So after I recreate the table I must recover the relationship of this table and other tables.
How do I get the information about the primary key of this table as a foreign key of other tables from data dictionary?
Thanks in advance

Columns from different tables displayed in an ADF table format

I have a many to one relationship between 2 tables (checklist -> subcontract). I would like to display columns from each table on a web page in an ADF Read Only Table format. I created a method that returns the data I need from the tables. When I drag that method over to my page JDev I'm only allowed to select columns from either the checklist table OR the subcontract table. I need one column from the subcontract table and several columns from the checklist table. I'm using JDev 10.1.3.2 and an Oracle 11g database. Thank you in advance.
-Wade

Thank you for your response. I ended up creating a new getter in the Checklist table which refers to the column in the Subcontract table. Then I was able to create a table column for that returned value.
Thanks again!

Selecting columns from two table is slow but same

I am selecting 27 columns from two tables
which running for more than 30 minutes. but
if I select count(*) with the same query
except the columns it is coming in seconds.
Where is the error?

If you post
1) The table definitions for the underlying tables
2) The indexes that are on the tables
3) The two SQL statements you're running
4) The explain plan for both statements
we can probably be of some assistance.
My guess is that the count(*) is able to return much more quickly because the optimizer is able to use a significantly faster query plan that is based on an index which the longer-running query cannot utilize. Without the information I've requested, though, it's hard to do more than speculate.

Combining the same column from 2 tables with distinct result.

I have 2 tables with identical name columns. One is current people and the other is historical people. I want a select that returns any name that is in either table. I want each name listed only once. I want to see 1 entry for each name if it is in the current table, the historical table, or both tables. I can easily do a select distinct on each table but how do I join the queries to get 1 result set with no duplicates? The name column is not a key field and I don't want any other columns from either table.

Just a simple UNION:
select name
from current
union
select name
from historical;

Update table based on values from other table

Hi,
I am trying to update one table based on the values of another table. Since you can't use From in update statements, how do you execute this?
For example i have to tables, Table A and Table B. I want to update a column or columns in Table A based on another value in Table B:
So if the column in Table B was 1 then column in Table A would be Yes, if Table B was 2, then Table A would be Yes, if Table B was 3 then Table A would be N/A and so on...
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
scott
