Using 1million insert statement to create a table

Dear Expert;
Lets say someone sent you about 2 million insert statements and you want to use them to insert into a table or create a new table...How do you go about doing so...
because I tried just highlighting all the insert statement and executing them, however that didnt work in pl/sql developer, it was crashing everytime I did so
The other way might be to create a loop for them and inserting about 10,000 at a time...but is there a faster way to do it...
All help is appreciated it..

And let it run at night so that other users are not influenced that much by your session.
You might want to add very few commits somewhere in between. However in case something breaks you then need to know which insert was still executed and which one one.

Using the Insert statement in a Java program without hardcoding the data

hello.
this is james mcfadden. i have developed a program called Demo.java, which is used with another program called QueryTableModel.java (a program that allows data to be viewed in a JTable). The Demo.java program displays a menu, connects to a database, allows the user to add data into the database and allows the user to view data that is already in the database. I have a problem with the Demo.java program. I have hardcoded the Insert statement in it. How do you use the Insert statement to put data into a database without hardcoding the data?

Using insert statements for creating objects..pls help

Hello all,
I have 2 databases DB1 (which is running on 8i) and DB2( Running on 10G).
How can I copy all the objects of a particular schema (user1) from DB1 to DB2, only by using INSERT statements. I do not want to use import/export since it is taking huge time for the operation.
Could anybody help me on this?
Regards,
chotu

Since I have allready imported indexes,procedures etc , now I need only to copy tables from DB1 to DB2.
I have truncated all the tables of user1 in DB2
Now I am using,
insert into my_tab as select * from user1.my_tab@DB2_db_link;
Thanks for the help...

Using SQL view object to create ADF table

Hi,
I have created a column called "Month" (which extracts month from the date column) and another column to count the no. of requests.
i want to create an ADF table with 2 columns, a column showing the month and another is showing the no. of requests for that month.
However, now I only managed to achieve the ADF table to show the overall total requests, which means if i add up all the requests for all the months and i get 500
My ADF table shows this:
Jan: 500
Feb: 500
Mar: 500
How should I create the view or what should I do to make it such that the no. of request is based on the month?
Please advice.
Thanks (:

Hi,
For the given situation you can create a Query Based View Object with the following query
SELECT
COUNT(TEMP1.DT) REQUEST,
TO_CHAR(TEMP1.DT, 'Mon') MONTH
FROM
TEMP1
GROUP BY
TO_CHAR(TEMP1.DT, 'Mon')
where DT is the date column and temp1 is the name of the database table.
Following are the steps that i followed to get this query :
i have taken the following sample table :
create table temp1
(srno number primary key,
dt date)
*Note you may use any existing column instead of srno or use dt only (i took an extra column as u know we need a primary key /row id)
the following is the sample data
insert into temp1 values (1,sysdate);
insert into temp1 values (2,sysdate);
insert into temp1 values (3,add_months(sysdate,1));
insert into temp1 values (4,add_months(sysdate,1));
insert into temp1 values (5,add_months(sysdate,3));
insert into temp1 values (6,add_months(sysdate,5));
the table appears as follows
SRNO DT
1 22-JUN-12
2 22-JUN-12
3 22-JUL-12
4 22-JUL-12
5 22-SEP-12
6 22-NOV-12
To start with ADF View Object Creation (Using Jdeveloper 11.1.2):
Create the view object using Create View Object wizard
In Step 1. Name window
set the value for Name : Viewab (you can use any of ur choice)
In the data source section : select query
In Step 2. Query window
a. Click Query builder (it will pop up sql statment window)
b. In the SQL Statement window
in quick-pick objects section -> select temp1 table -> shuttle the columns from available list to selected list
in select clause section -> select srno column from select list-> choose count() function from function drop down list -> insert function -> set alias to REQUEST-> click validate
now select dt column from select list -> choose to_char() function -> click insert function -> alter the function to to_Char(temp1.DT,'Mon') -> set alias to Month -> click validate
in the group by clause section -> Click the green symbol to add -> from the expression palette insert dt column -> insert the to_char function -> alter the function to to_char(temp1.DT,'Mon') -> click validate
in the Entire SQL Query section -> click test query -> in the test query window -> click query result-> you will see the result -> click close -> click ok
Click next
Step 3: Bind Variables
Click Next
Step 4: Attribute Mappings
click Finish
So the view object is ready :)

Is it possible to use a case statement when joining different tables based on input parameters?

Hi,
I have a scenario where my stored procedure takes 5 parameters and the users can pass NULL or some value to these parameters and based on the parameters, I need to pull data from various tables.
Is it possible to use a case statement in the join, similar the one in the below example. I'm getting error when I use the below type of statement.
select a.*
from a
case
when parameter1=1 then
inner join a on a.id = b.id
when parameter1=2 then
inner join a on a.id = c.id
end;
Please let me know, if this type of statement works, and if it works will it create any performance issues?. If the above doesn't work, could you please give me some alternate solutions?
Thanks.

Here's a technique for joining A to B or C depending on the input parameters. In theory, you are joining to both tables but the execution plan includes filters to skip whichever join is not appropriate. The drawback is that you have to do outer joins, not inner ones.
CREATE TABLE A AS SELECT LEVEL ak FROM dual CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 100;
CREATE TABLE b AS SELECT ak, bk
FROM A, (SELECT LEVEL bk FROM dual CONNECT BY LEVEL <= 10);
CREATE TABLE c(ak, ck) AS SELECT ak, bk*10 FROM b;
variable p1 NUMBER;
variable p2 NUMBER;
exec :p1 := 1;
exec :p2 := 20;
SELECT /*+ gather_plan_statistics */ A.ak, nvl(b.bk, c.ck) otherk FROM A
LEFT JOIN b ON A.ak = b.ak AND :p1 IS NOT NULL AND b.bk = :p1
LEFT JOIN c ON A.ak = c.ak AND :p1 is null and :p2 IS NOT NULL and c.ck = :p2
WHERE A.ak <= 9;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(NULL,NULL,'IOSTATS LAST'));

Predicate Information (identified by operation id):

   8 - filter((:P2 IS NOT NULL AND :P1 IS NULL))
   9 - filter(("C"."AK"<=9 AND "C"."CK"=:P2))
You can see that table C was not really accessed: the buffer count is 0.
exec :p1 := NULL;
SELECT /*+ gather_plan_statistics */ A.ak, nvl(b.bk, c.ck) otherk FROM A
LEFT JOIN b ON A.ak = b.ak AND :p1 IS NOT NULL AND b.bk = :p1
LEFT JOIN c ON A.ak = c.ak AND :p1 is null and :p2 IS NOT NULL and c.ck = :p2
WHERE A.ak <= 9;
SELECT * FROM TABLE(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(NULL,NULL,'IOSTATS LAST'));
Now table B is not accessed.

Use Multiple Insert Statements in Prepared Statements

Hi Friends
i am stuck in a problem for which i need your help.i will brief you about the issue below.
I am having Multiple Insert Statements which i need to execute to put the data in the database.i have a doubt about the use of the executeUpdate() function in the statement interface. sample code is as below.
stmt = conn.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO Client ( clientPk, provincePk, countryPk, statusPk, branchPk, salutation, ) VALUES(PID, 2, '123123123', '123', '66', 1, 1 );");
int n =stmt.executeUpdate();
Now the problem is how do i insert multiple Insert statements using the conn.prepareStatement().should i do like
stmt = conn.prepareStatement("")
int n =stmt.executeUpdate();
stmt = conn.prepareStatement("")
int n =stmt.executeUpdate();
stmt = conn.prepareStatement("")
int n =stmt.executeUpdate(); ..................................
should i use the same steps to execute each individual query and then use executeUpdate().
Please let me know the correct procedure to be followed to execute these tasks.waiting for a positive reply from your side.
Thanks & Regards
Vikram K

Hi
Thanks a lot once agin for the reply.
I think i have figured out the solution. I am using SQL statements in the Prepared statements(""). But now i have dropped the idea of using the prepared statement and decided to use the simple Statement instead.
what i have done is as below.
conn = ConnectionFactory.getInstance().getConnection();
stmt = conn.createStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO Client ( clientPk, provincePk, countryPk, statusPk, branchPk, salutation, heightMeasurementType, weightMeasurementType ) VALUES(PID, '1', '1', '0', '1', 'Mr', CONCAT('Jason ', PID), 'R', 'Mawdsley', '123', '66', 1, 1 );");
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT into Cp () Values ()");
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT into gp () Values ()");
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT into jk () Values ()");
I think this makes sense to use the Statement and execute all the queries in one shot rather than using PS.
thanks a lot for your help.
Regards
Vikram K

Functions used in INSERT statement

i created 10 functions,eg, get_value(p_code, p_date). Each function only runs a very simple SELECT sql to retrieve the value from an individual mapping table based on 2 parameters input.
I want to transform the records from TABLE_B to TABLE_A for 2 million records as follows:
INSERT INTO TABLE_A
(EVENT_DATE
A_FIELD_01_CDE,
A_FIELD_01_VAL,
A_FIELD_02_CDE,
A_FIELD_02_VAL,
A_FIELD_10_CDE,
A_FIELD_10_VAL)
SELECT sysdate,
B_FIELD_01_CDE,
get_value(B_FIELD_01_CDE, sysdate),
B_FIELD_02_CDE,
get_value(B_FIELD_02_CDE, sysdate),
B_FIELD_10_CDE,
get_value(B_FIELD_10_CDE, sysdate)
FROM TABLE_B
Is this a good way to do so? Or I should write in another approach, eg, UPDATE each field one by one?
Thanks.

If just a table transformation has to be done, the first thing I would consider would be:
insert into table_a
select sysdate
       b_field_01_cde,
       (select single_value from mapping_table <using b_field_01_cde and sysdate>),
       b_field_02_cde,
       (select single_value from mapping_table <using b_field_02_cde and sysdate>),
       b_field_10_cde,
       (select single_value from mapping_table <using b_field_10_cde and sysdate>)
from table_bJust a materialization of proposals by Sailaja Pasupuleti (insert into as select -> the fastest) and Daniel A. Morgan (plain SQL i.e. no SQL <-> PL/SQL context switching)
No need for deep elaboration as a transformation is a one time job to be done fast (we always try to be that way) and with minimal "collateral damage" (no-more-for-any-use functions scattered around for example, just a single script to be stored just in case ...)

Insert Statement for Form on Table with Report

I'm using a 'getID' process On Load Before Header to make sure I get an ID for my form per suggestion from blarman here. The form has many fields from one table and four collections. If I let the process run as I think it should (when the ID is null) the link to the report does not fetch any field except the id. If I set the process to never run everything loads but my update process doesn't run. What am I doing wrong? Advance thanks...
Alexandra
Get ID Process

:P26_DOC_INFO_ID := new_id;
end;Update Process (On Submit/After Comp...)

CHANGE_TYPE = :P26_CHANGE_TYPE,
NEW_DOCNO = :P26_NEW_DOCNO
WHERE DOC_INFO_ID = :P26_DOC_INFO_ID;

Got it...I think it had to do with the use of my 'Create' and 'Apply Changes' buttons.
Thanks for your time anyway.

Insert statement in to internal table

I have an editable ALV LIST report with the check box to it. When the user checks the check box on the report and hits a push Button it should copy the row from the internal table and insert the row to the same internal table in the next line.
I had my code in this way,
    WHEN 'COPY'.
      LOOP AT t_output INTO wa_output.
        IF wa_output-chkbox = 'X'.
          wa_output-zactual = 0.
          wa_output-zqty = 0.
          INSERT wa_output INTO t_output INDEX sy-tabix.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
However the problem was,
For e.g. let say I have only 3 rows in the internal table. So when the user selects the last, 3rd row and hits the push button the 3rd row copied and is inserted in the 3rd row. The user wanted the copied row in the next row, ie the 4th row.
SO I changed the above code as below and now it goes to an endless loop.
    WHEN 'COPY'.
      LOOP AT t_output INTO wa_output.
        IF wa_output-chkbox = 'X'.
          wa_output-zactual = 0.
          wa_output-zqty = 0.
          Sy-tabix = sy-tabix + 1.
          INSERT wa_output INTO t_output INDEX sy-tabix.
        ENDIF.
      ENDLOOP.
<b>I dont want to use another internal table.</b>
I hope I am clear.
Please suggest,
Ster.

Hi,
Change the code as follows.
data: lv_cnt type i.
    describe table t_output lines lv_cnt.
     LOOP AT t_output INTO wa_output where wa_output-chkbox = 'X'
                                                            and wa_output-zactual = 0
                                                            and wa_output-zqty = 0.
          lv_cnt = lv_cnt + 1.
          INSERT wa_output INTO t_output INDEX lv_cnt.
      ENDLOOP.

Error while creating partition table

Hi frnds i am getting error while i am trying to create a partition table using range
getting error ORA-00906: missing left parenthesis.I used the following statement to create partition table
CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_ORDERS
(ORDER_NUMBER NUMBER,
ORDER_DATE DATE,
CUST_NUM NUMBER,
TOTAL_PRICE NUMBER,
TOTAL_TAX NUMBER,
TOTAL_SHIPPING NUMBER)
PARTITION BY RANGE(ORDER_DATE)
PARTITION SO99Q1 VALUES LESS THAN TO_DATE(‘01-APR-1999’, ‘DD-MON-YYYY’),
PARTITION SO99Q2 VALUES LESS THAN TO_DATE(‘01-JUL-1999’, ‘DD-MON-YYYY’),
PARTITION SO99Q3 VALUES LESS THAN TO_DATE(‘01-OCT-1999’, ‘DD-MON-YYYY’),
PARTITION SO99Q4 VALUES LESS THAN TO_DATE(‘01-JAN-2000’, ‘DD-MON-YYYY’),

PARTITION SO00Q4 VALUES LESS THAN TO_DATE(‘01-JAN-2001’, ‘DD-MON-YYYY’)
;

More than one of them. Try this instead:
CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_ORDERS
(ORDER_NUMBER NUMBER,
ORDER_DATE DATE,
CUST_NUM NUMBER,
TOTAL_PRICE NUMBER,
TOTAL_TAX NUMBER,
TOTAL_SHIPPING NUMBER)
PARTITION BY RANGE(ORDER_DATE) (

PARTITION SO99Q2 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-JUL-1999', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),
PARTITION SO99Q3 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-OCT-1999', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),
PARTITION SO99Q4 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-JAN-2000', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),
PARTITION SO00Q1 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-APR-2000', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),
PARTITION SO00Q2 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-JUL-2000', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),
PARTITION SO00Q3 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('01-OCT-2000', 'DD-MON-YYYY')),

Using sqlerrm in insert statement in 10g

    -- but the insert statement doesn't work in 9i, how about 10g ?

Using System::ErrorDescription in Insert statement

Hello,
I want to insert System::ErrorDescription to store the error in the customized log table. When I use the following statement, it does not insert anything. What am i doing wrong. Please advice.
create table dbo.load_err(load_err_id integer(PK),load_err_Dtl,loadtime)
INSERT INTO dbo.LOAD_ERR (LOAD_ERR_ID,
LOAD_ERR_DTL,
loadtime)
VALUES (NEXT VALUE FOR dbo.LOAD_ERR_SEQ,
@[System::ErrorDescription] ,
getdate())
I see the row inserted but nothing in the Load_ERR_DTL column.

Where are you using the insert statement? The ErrorDescription variable is only available inside OnError,OnWarning and OnInformation event handlers
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-IN/library/ms141788.aspx
Also you need to use insert statement as below
INSERT INTO dbo.LOAD_ERR (LOAD_ERR_ID,
LOAD_ERR_DTL,
loadtime)
VALUES (NEXT VALUE FOR dbo.LOAD_ERR_SEQ,
getdate())
and map parameter0 to @[System::ErrorDescription] in parameters tab
another way is to set SQLSourceType
as Variable and set a variable for the query with below expression as
"INSERT INTO dbo.LOAD_ERR (LOAD_ERR_ID,
LOAD_ERR_DTL,
loadtime)
VALUES (NEXT VALUE FOR dbo.LOAD_ERR_SEQ,'" +
@[System::ErrorDescription] + "',
getdate())"

Parallel Insert statements (bulk) to the same table

Hi,
I am in need to insert set of insert statements 50000+ in to table and wanted to split them in to tow halves and run in two SQL worksheets.
Note that both will try to insert on the same table.
Please let me know whether it is advisable or tell me an alternative way.
Using...Oracle 11g DB.

Deep.

Not sure why you want to split it. Parallel inserts into the same table is not usually a problem. Contention could be around free lists, initrans and so on - especially if using RAC and inserting something like 50,000+ rows every second. But the table defaults usually suffice.
Note that both will try to insert on the same table.So what? This is exactly what Oracle expects and what it is designed to do.
Please let me know whether it is advisable or tell me an alternative way.Well, you mentioned SQL worksheets - why? Exactly how does the INSERT statements look like? Where does the data to insert come from? Is shared insert cursors used (bind variables compulsory)? The bottleneck and problem could very well be on your side and not with the actual inserts into the table.

Create target table using ODI model

Hi all,
I am new to ODI. I am trying export RDBMS table to RDBMS table from source to target.
whether we need to create target table structure in trg schema or we can create using obi trg model by selecting new datastore.
In owb while loading target tables are created and data will be loaded.
Pls help me regarding this.
thanks in advance.

Hi
You can create it in both ways.if you create datastore by using ODI you must select create target table option in flow while loading to target.
