Using Query Builder

Hi Friends,
I am having a small issue..
I want to find out all folder names,report name & category using the Query Builder.
kindly do the needful.
I am using BOE: XI R2
Data Base: Oracle 10
Regards,
RAVI

Hello Ravi,
You can use SQL statements as: -
Folders: -
select * from ci_infoobjects where SI_KIND='Folder'
Category: -
select * from ci_infoobjects where SI_KIND='Category'
Webi Reports: -
select * from ci_infoobjects where SI_KIND='Webi'
Thanks,

How to use Query Builder in JDeveloper?

I am not able to use Query Builder with JDeveloper version 11g 2.
The online documentation about Query Builder:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E35521_01/user.111230/e17455/db_tools.htm#OJDUG2380
"To use Query Builder:
Open the SQL Worksheet.
Right-click and choose Query Builder."
But when I right-click on the SQL Worksheet, there is no menu item "Query Builder".
Does the documentation belong to a different version of JDeveloper?
Edited by: Ralf_user4689599 on 06.05.2013 15:40

all features of 11.1.2.3.0 are installed.
It makes no difference wether I start studio developer or database developer role.
There's no query builder in the context menu of the sql worksheet.

Parsing Error when using query builder

I have a query with a subquery in the WHERE statement witn multiple fields listed in the select statement.
For example, the subquery starts with "AND (center, jobid) IN SELECT center, jobid FROM ........
The query runs fine and gives me the correct data
However when I click on the Query builder option, I receive the following error
"Text is not a valid, single SELECT statement.
Parsing error:
Failed to parse SQL query.
Invalid Select Statement.
Unexpected token "from" at line13, pos 1.
Query Builder Disabled
I believe this to be a problem with the query builder, Am I correct?

Query Builder is a visual environment targeted at novice/intermediate users. Some advanced and/or hard to visualize language features are not supported. The improved error messaging coming in 3.1 would indicate this is 'unsupported' rather than 'not a valid, single SELECT statement.' For example, (using scott/tiger):
Text contains unsupported syntax.
Parsing error:
Failed to parse SQL query.
Invalid SELECT statement.
Unexpected token "," at line 4, pos 16.
Query Builder disabled.

I don't know what your real query is, but refactoring to use join on derived table or table expression (or, as Gary said, separate IN clauses) rather than '(a, b) IN' will allow Query Builder to display it.
derived table: select distinct d.dname
from dept d, emp e,

from emp x
where x.deptno > 10
   and x.job NOT IN ('MANAGER', 'PRESIDENT')

Group by clause using query builder

Hi,
I have some event pages (pages created using a template called event) which are tagged with event types and I have 5 event types in total. In the event listing page, i want to show the events grouped by event types.
Is there a facility in query builder to use "group by" which returns be results in different buckets?
Is thats not the case, i have to run 1 query per event type which means i have to run 5 queries. (or i get the event type as facets -> get the buckets -> get the predicate for each bucket -> run one query per bucket which again is nothing buket one query per event type). I dont want to do that.
Hence using the query builder or any other form of querying, is there a way to group the results?
Regards,
yadhu

Perfect... thats answers the query...
Basically the summary is I cannot use aggregate functions like group by. Once i get the search results, i can either use facets, get the bucket predicates and drill down the search OR get all the results, do look up on property (using Node.getProperty) of each node in the result and build my UI based on mere coding. Am I right?

How to identify recurring instance of a report using Query Builder

Hi,
I am having a report scheduled for four different set of parameters. I want to identify the instances pertaining to each schedule. I tried the last successful instance but it gives only the last instance detail.
Kindly help me
Thanks and Regards,
Subbu S

Hi,
Use the following query in the query builder
SELECT
SI_NAME, SI_SCHEDULEINFO.SI_STARTTIME
FROM
CI_INFOOBJECTS
WHERE
SI_RECURRING = 1
SI_NAME: The recurring report name.
SI_SCHEDULEINFO.SI_STARTTIME: The date and time the report is scheduled to run next.
The query above will return all the recurring reports .

How to use Query Builder as a component inside our applications?

I am very new to Apex, but I loved it until now :)
After my first experience I am thinking to advice Apex as an Oracle database reporting environment to some of our marketing and sales guys. These guys are familiar to basic SQL and table, index concepts and their need is to create dynamic reports, take their output to excel and email these reports all around the company :)
My first question is can Apex 3.1 work with 9.2 - 10.1 - 10.2 and 11.1?
My second question is how can I open the Query Builder inside the Create Region>SQL Report wizard to my users inside a custom user defined form?
My third question is if the answer of second question is it is not possible, then anyone can advice on alternatives for this kind of a need with Apex?
My last question is how Apex can handle a distributed database environment, like Java applications can it open several database connections as needed?
Thank you.

Hello,
My first question is can Apex 3.1 work with 9.2 - 10.1 - 10.2 and 11.1?Correct. That's said in the installation guide.
My second question is how can I open the Query Builder inside the Create Region>SQL Report wizard to my users inside a custom user defined form?This does not yet exist out of the box. You can have a look how Oracle did it and try to mimic it in your own application.
My third question is if the answer of second question is it is not possible, then anyone can advice on alternatives for this kind of a need with Apex?Import app 4500 in your own workspace. On page 1002 you should find the query builder.
Again you can't just run this, you would need to make customizations to it. Alternatively you can add just a textarea on a page where you can run SQL statements from. But I guess you want to have the graphical display?
My last question is how Apex can handle a distributed database environment, like Java applications can it open several database connections as needed?APEX is living in the Oracle database. So everything inside that database you can potentially work with. If you need data from other sources you can use a database link or hytrogenous connectivity. Basically if you can do it from the Oracle database, you can also do it from within APEX.

Dimitri

Hi, Cant use Query builder in Apps. Because there is no Foreign Keys define

Hi,
We Cant use any Query Builder (SqlDeveloper) in Oracle Apps.
Because there is no Foreign Keys defined on the table except primary key.
I agree that common colums are there on different table,
But it's bit difficult to digout for numbers of tables from different modules (schema).
Do any one have any query which can find common colums from different tables though the tables may or may not be from different Schemas too.
Thanks in advance.
Bachan

>
Due to performance oracle has not applied constraints
on tables except Primary Key.
I find this hard to believe. The most likely reason for this, is to speed up inserts, but thats only applicable if you have lots of inserts at the same time.
But they have given eTRM to refer the forigen columns
on different tables.
Forigen column is just for name shake there is no
constraint available except Primary key.
And whenever we have to make query and apply join, we
have to dig a lot.
Even we cant use Sqldeveloper Query builder, which is
a dam good tool for making Joins and query.
My problem is the Time and effort which we have to
put for diging tables.
just want to reduce that with some intleactual
Query.You will get quicker as you get more experienced. Of course, everytime you have a query to do a specific job you could save it in an appropriately named file and store it in your source control system.

Connection information to use Query Builder

I am following the Oracle Reports tutorial - how to add data to a report
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_17/bi.1012/b14364/rwtutorial_data.htm#i1012227
I am at Step 6: Using the Query Builder.
I already have the HR sample schema in my (9i) database, and have unlocked it.
But at the prompt for user name and password and db name, I get this message:
REP 0501 Unable to connect to the specified database
ORA 12154 TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
For each field I have this information:
User name : hr
Password ; hr
Database : unidad
This is the same information I use to connect to my database. What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks.

Cannot use Query Builder in TableAdapter Configuration Wizard

I am using Visual Studio 2013 and MySQL NET adapter 6.8.3. I have created a WinForms app in VB. I am trying to create a dataset with a table from the MySQL database (named "propworx"). I do the following:
1. I create a new DataSet.
2. I edit the DataSet with the DataSet Designer.
3. I right-click on ANY TableAdapter, and I click "Configure".
4. I click on "Query Builder".
I get the following error message:
The query builder has failed.
Authentication to host '' for user '' using method 'mysql_native_password' failed with message: Access denied for user
''@'Fabs-Work' (using password: NO)
(In the above, "Fabs-Work" is my computer name.)
Looking at the error message, I immediately see that the host and user information appears to be missing. But it is in my app.config file:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="PropWorx.My.MySettings.PropWorxConnectionString" connectionString="server=localhost;user id=propworx;password=********;persistsecurityinfo=True;database=propworx" providerName="MySql.Data.MySqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
(I have blanked out the password in the above post, but I have indeed double checked it and it is correct).
The database is hosted locally. I have created a database user in MySQL called "propworx" and have given it full rights.
Any ideas why Visual Studio Dataset Designer is not reading the info from my settings file?

How to use Query Builder in Oracle10g

Since I'm new to Oracle , thus I'm facing some problem in some portions. When I went through the Query Builder option, actually I was not able to build the query as some of the features present in it were not clear to me like the "Condition" part and if I need to perform some join in it, how would that part work on it.
Please reply and help me out. Thanks.
Regards,
Praveen Rai

Query Builder is level 8.0, it's part of desupported developer 6i. Installation media has an online manual, which answers your questions. You should consider an alternative like SQLDeveloper. Query Builder may still work with 10g, but no guarantee.

Java error when using Query Builder

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to Publisher and I have an issue when I build a SQL Query Data Set. I have tried both the Default and Oracle OBIEE data sources. I am able to select my fields, etc but when I got to test results I get the following error:
java.io.IOException: prepare query failed[nQSError: 27002] Near <->: Syntax error [nQSError: 26012]
I've looked at the sql and it looks fine to me. I found one posting on here about the jdbc connection but I tested that under the Admin page and the OBIEE jdbc data source tests just fine.
Any idea what I'm missing?
Thanks
Richard

There is apparently no solution to this issue. Worse, it exists still in 10gR2.
I suspect the Oracle*Reports developers do not use tables having constraints and that they do not read the many reports of it on this forum.

Query Builder - Find WEBI reports that are using a table

I am trying to find list of WEBI reports using a specific table. This specific table is used in only 1 universe.
Though I could successfully find list of reports that use this universe, I am unable to find drill down further and find the subset of reports using this table/object.
SELECT si_name, SI_KIND, si_id, SI_PARENTID,SI_AUTHOR,SI_OWNER FROM CI_INFOOBJECTS, CI_APPOBJECTS
WHERE PARENTS("SI_NAME='WEBI-UNIVERSE'","SI_NAME ='MyUniverse'")
Is it possible to find the information I am looking for using query builder.
Also, for a given WEBI report I am trying to find the list of report names and the folder they reside in:
Select SI_NAME, SI_ID, SI_PATH, SI_KIND, SI_OWNER From CI_INFOOBJECTS, CI_APPOBJECTS WHERE
PARENTS("SI_NAME='Folder Hierarchy'",
"PARENTS('SI_NAME=''WEBI-UNIVERSE'' ', 'SI_NAME=''MyUniverse'' ')" )
The above query just gives me the folder names. I am looking to find the report names as well the the folder (and preferably the path) in a single query. Is that possible.

Sri,
With respect to your 1st requirement:
In BusinessObjects 6.5 it was possible. However, post BOXIR2 this information could not be retrieved from CMS via query builder. I agree with Jorge Sosua's comment above.
With respect to your 2nd requirement:
The field 'SI_PATH' will retrieve Filestore path(physical path). If you were referring logical path(Public folder path or psuedo-reference path) will you please refer my respone to Kelly Stone at BusinessObjects Query builder queries - Part II , If this may assist you.

Problem of Query Builder

Hi ,
I am using SQL Developer 1.1.0.23. In this I was trying to use Query Builder. In this I am facing one problem. In our company, we are provided with the view_only schema which are having access to all the objects.
Now while using Query Builder, I want to use the table of the other schema. But Query builder allow only tables owned by the schema with which we are logged in. This is making it virtually useless if we need to create the query like
Select a.col1,
b.co1
from schema1.table_name1 a,
schema2.table_name2 b;
Can we created such query with Query Builder, or do we have any work around for this ???
Regards
Martand Joshi

This is correct. There is a bug logged for this, but at this stage the query builder does not support read only access.

How to specify an outer join in query builder

I've very quickly built a large query with the query builder, and it works fine, but only produces 9 out of 2200 records - so I need to change it to an outer join.
My problem is that I can't seem to find a way to specify an outer join. I've tried editing the query that query builder formed, but it won't let me.
I know I can capture the query, edit it and run it in sql developer, and that works fine, but I want to use query builder as it is the fastest way I know of to quickly add and remove items - my users are unsure of exactly what to include.
I know it is kind of a trivial question, but i've searched the forum, the manual, the web and no luck
Thanks for any help you can give
Glenn

Hi Glenn,
When you use the Query Builder to create the sql statement, you should click on the empty square to the right of the fields on each table to create the join. When you've done this, you should see a line drawn between the two tables. Click on this line and a small popup appears allowing you to select inner, left outer or right outer joins.
Once the report has been created, though, you need to edit the statement. For example, if you use the Query Builder to join DEPT to EMP based on the DEPTNO field on both tables, you get:
select      "DEPT"."DEPTNO" as "DEPTNO",
      "DEPT"."DNAME" as "DNAME",
      "DEPT"."LOC" as "LOC",
      "EMP"."EMPNO" as "EMPNO",
      "EMP"."ENAME" as "ENAME",
      "EMP"."JOB" as "JOB",
      "EMP"."MGR" as "MGR",
      "EMP"."HIREDATE" as "HIREDATE"
from      "EMP" "EMP",
      "DEPT" "DEPT"
where   "DEPT"."DEPTNO"="EMP"."DEPTNO"Change this to:
select      "DEPT"."DEPTNO" as "DEPTNO",
      "DEPT"."DNAME" as "DNAME",
      "DEPT"."LOC" as "LOC",
      "EMP"."EMPNO" as "EMPNO",
      "EMP"."ENAME" as "ENAME",
      "EMP"."JOB" as "JOB",
      "EMP"."MGR" as "MGR",
      "EMP"."HIREDATE" as "HIREDATE"
from      "EMP" "EMP"
      LEFT OUTER JOIN "DEPT" "DEPT" ON "DEPT"."DEPTNO"="EMP"."DEPTNO"Andy
