Validate and Edit SQL Query Errors

I am trying to "Validate or Edit SQL Query" in APEX 3.0. When I open up the SQL Query its highlighted in red and when I click on the Validate or Edit button it gives me an error.
I modified my marvel.conf file to include:
AddType text/xml xbl
AddType text/x-component htc
and this still didnt take care of it. Any ideas and thank you in advance.
PS: OPS - Windows Server 2003
Upgraded from 1.6 to 3.0

I've gotten so used to command line editing, that I rarely us "ed". back in the days of DOS, the default editor was EDLIN - one of those goofy editors that only showed one line at a time, so it wasn't much of an improvement. you could switch to the old dos editor, but that wasn't much better (just checked, it's still there)
some nice things with command line editing

SQL Query (PL/SQL function body returning SQL query) Error

I'm an ApEx newbie, not a PL/SQL developer (more of a Web application developer) and I'm getting an error that prevents me from saving some PL/SQL code. I've looked over it all afternoon, but can't tell what's wrong. I may even be trying to do something inappropriately, or really stupid.
The code is below. The error I get is - "Function returning SQL query: Query cannot be parsed within the Builder". Any help is appreciated, and thanks in advance. If you need more details of what I'm trying to do let me know.

END IF;
END;

Denes,
Good question.
Before I answer that question I'll give some detail on the application. That may help too. The application is a supplier search which searches the Oracle vendor tables (po.vendors, po_vendor_sites_all, po_vendor_contacts). The vendor/vendor site relationship is one to many. The site is based on the Org_ID. The supplier search is built to work solo, or to be called by another application. If it is called by another application one of the values passed is the Org_ID, so that only the sites that pertain to the user's org_id are shown. If the appl is called solo the Org_ID is not known, so the SQL should return all sites.
I figured the easiest way to check if the program was running solo or was called was to check the G_ORG_ID value in my PL/SQL that builds the site report. You helped me with that code. (I am hiding buttons by checking if the G_ORG_ID field is null and they display/hide properly.)
So, how is G_ORG_ID populated? It is on Page Zero, and is populated via the URL when the appl is called. (That aspect works great.) If it is called by another application G_ORG_ID is populated and my PL/SQL works. But, if the appl is called solo the field is not populated. When the PL/SQL runs I cannot get it to run the code for when G_ORG_ID is not populated.
I am at the point that I don't know if I need to populate G_ORG_ID in some way when the appl is running solo (kinda tricky, because I need to use that field to determine if it is running solo), or if I need to check it differently in the PL/SQL IF.
I have experimented with both the default value, and have checked for different values in the PL/SQL IF, but nothing works.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if you have any other questions on this matter.
Thanks, Tony

SQL query error

I have a complicated SQL query which looks like the following:
UPDATE SeqPick
SET SeqPick.AceTopAge = SEQS.TopAge, SeqPick.AceBaseAge = SEQS.BaseAge
FROM T_Well_SeqPick SeqPick INNER JOIN (SELECT TOPS.Sequence_Name, TOPS.Sequence_ID, TOPS.TopAge, BASES.BaseAge FROM (SELECT dd.Sequence_Name, dd.Sequence_ID, Age_Top+(Age_Base-Age_Top)*Top_Ratio As TopAge FROM T_Sequences dd, T_Stages WHERE(dd.SeqScheme_ID
= 3) And T_Stages.Stage_Name_ID=Top_Stage_ID And T_Stages.Timescale_ID=1) TOPS INNER JOIN (SELECT BaseSeq.Sequence_Name, BaseSeq.Sequence_ID, Age_Top+(T_Stages.Age_Base-T_Stages.Age_Top)*Base_Ratio As BaseAge FROM T_Sequences BaseSeq, T_Stages Where SeqScheme_ID=3
AND Stage_Name_ID=Base_Stage_ID AND Timescale_ID=1) BASES ON TOPS.Sequence_ID=BASES.Sequence_ID ORDER BY TopAge, BaseAge) SEQS ON SeqPick.Seq_ID = SEQS.Sequence_ID
When I run it on a SQL Server 2008, I get the following error message:
SQL Server Exception Error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The ORDER BY clause is invalid in views, inline functions, derived tables, subqueries, and common table expressions, unless TOP, OFFSET or FOR XML is also specified.
Are there any other ways of re-writing the above query to resolve the issue?

As Erland said, query should be readable. You can easily format it by using
http://poorsql.com/
It formats your query like below:
UPDATE SeqPick
SET SeqPick.AceTopAge = SEQS.TopAge
, SeqPick.AceBaseAge = SEQS.BaseAge
FROM T_Well_SeqPick SeqPick
INNER JOIN (
SELECT TOPS.Sequence_Name
, TOPS.Sequence_ID
, TOPS.TopAge
, BASES.BaseAge
FROM (
SELECT dd.Sequence_Name
, dd.Sequence_ID
, Age_Top + (Age_Base - Age_Top) * Top_Ratio AS TopAge
FROM T_Sequences dd
, T_Stages
WHERE (dd.SeqScheme_ID = 3)
AND T_Stages.Stage_Name_ID = Top_Stage_ID
AND T_Stages.Timescale_ID = 1
) TOPS
INNER JOIN (
SELECT BaseSeq.Sequence_Name
, BaseSeq.Sequence_ID
, Age_Top + (T_Stages.Age_Base - T_Stages.Age_Top) * Base_Ratio AS BaseAge
FROM T_Sequences BaseSeq
, T_Stages
WHERE SeqScheme_ID = 3
AND Stage_Name_ID = Base_Stage_ID
AND Timescale_ID = 1
) BASES ON TOPS.Sequence_ID = BASES.Sequence_ID
--ORDER BY TopAge
-- , BaseAge
) SEQS ON SeqPick.Seq_ID = SEQS.Sequence_ID

How to Edit SQL Query in Crystal XI?

Post Author: sk8skiier
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I'm wondering if any of you can help me. We've recently upgraded from Crystal Reports 6 to Crystal Reports XI, the version on my machine is 11.0.0.2178 and is the Professional version.
In Crystal 6, it was very easy to change the data that you wanted returned by editing the sql query, but in XI, I can only find a way to view the query, not edit it. Am I missing something?
Thanks for the help, I appreciate it.

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Good news and bad news. Bad news is you can't edit the viewed sql statement anymore in any version of Crystal 9 or higher.Good news is you can write custom sql commands instead of dealing with having to join tables. So if you know the sql you want to produce that was in version 6 just copy and paste it into the add command feature and edit it in there and you will be exactly where you want to be.

JSTL, MySQL, Tomcat sql:query error

Hi to everyone...
This is my first post, but since im employed now as a java developer ill be here regulary.
Right now im trying to use the JSTL to make some simple sql selects in my JSPs....
Here�s the JSP code:
<%@ page language="java" import="java.lang.*,java.util.*" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/jstl-core" prefix="c" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/jstl-sql" prefix="sql" %>
<html>
<head>
<title> A first JSP database </title>
</head>
<body>
<sql:setDataSource scope="session" var="dataSource"
url="jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/zolltek" driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
user="root" password="root"/>

<sql:update var="users" dataSource="${dataSource}" scope="session">
INSERT INTO test VALUES (7,'Paul Oakenfold')
</sql:update>

<sql:query var="users" dataSource="${dataSource}" scope="session">
SELECT * FROM test WHERE 1
</sql:query>
</body>
</html>
...and the error message:
exception :
org.apache.jasper.JasperException:
SELECT * FROM test WHERE 1
: null
at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServletWrapper.service(JspServletWrapper.java:254)
at org.apache.jasper.servlet.JspServlet.serviceJspFile(JspServlet.java:295)
root cause

: null
at org.apache.jasper.runtime.PageContextImpl.handlePageException(PageContextImpl.java:531)

...and just for completion the importent part of my web.xml:
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>/jstl-core</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/c-1_0.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
<taglib>
<taglib-uri>/jstl-sql</taglib-uri>
<taglib-location>/WEB-INF/sql-1_0.tld</taglib-location>
</taglib>
i am using the jboss 3.2.3 tomcat bundle (tomcat 4.1.29)
and mysql 4.0.18 on W32 System....
the JSTL is installed and working - i can make <sql:update>Inserts without any problems, but any <sql:query>selects result in that error... so i guess the setDataSource is okay...
Any idea would be appreciated....
Thx
J�rg

Those URIs you've got in your JSPs aren't correct. They should be:
<%@ taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/core" %>
<%@ taglib prefix="sql" uri="http://java.sun.com/jstl/sql" %>
These are the URIs defined in the standard.jar.
You'd be better off setting up a Tomcat JNDI data source for your application. That will externalize the connection parameters and make it unnecessary to refer to a data source in your JSPs.
You'd be even better off not putting SQL code in your JSPs. They're for presentation. Better to write a Java object that will communicate with the database on the JSP's behalf.
If you just want to select all the rows in the table, the query should be "SELECT * FROM test". You don't need a WHERE clause in that case.
If you change the URIs in your JSPs you should remove the <taglib> from your web.xml. It's not necessary. Tomcat will find the TLD by looking in the JARs in the CLASSPATH and matching the URIs.

Editing SQL Query

Post Author: Sbaptista
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hi All. I'm new to CR10, and have many reports created in CR8.5. However, when I open these reports in CR10, I cannot edit the SQL Query... it is completely greyed out. To add fuel to the fire, we are now attempting to retrieve the data from another database (same structure and data but different location). I'm able to see the new database and can create a basic report, but cannot modify the SQL query. Any thoughts? It's been years since I worked with Crystal so please bear with me. Thanks!

Post Author: ph03nix
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
The short answer is: you can't. If you want to be able to edit your SQL queries, you need to do as the previous response indicated - use the Command option in the Database Expert. I don't know about 10, but in 11, you cannot add a Command once you've added any tables. (You may also want to check the licensing levels - I seem to recall something about a license above Developer that has/had additional functionality, at least in 11, but I'm not positive what that includes).

ReportViewer using SQL Query error states: Incorrect syntax near ','.

Hello Community
    Using Visual Studio 2008 and SQL Server 2008 I created a Windows Application
that uses SQL Server Reporting Services. The application uses ReportViewer and
calls a method written using SQL query.
            1-First I created the form.
            2-Next I dragged the ReportViewer (Toolbox) and Table (from DataSource) onto the form.
The problem is that when it reaches the last line of the SQL query (ie, da.Fill(ds, "TableOne");)
the code fails stating the error message:
            "Incorrect syntax near ','."
     The following is the code behind the form containing the query:
        private void ReportPgm1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
            // TODO: This line of code loads data into the 'ReportDBDataSet.TableOne' table. You can move, or remove it, as needed.
            this.TableOneTableAdapter.Fill(this.ReportDBDataSet.TableOne);
            reportViewer1.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Local;
            LocalReport ReportOneLocalReport = reportViewer1.LocalReport;
            DataSet ds = new DataSet("ReportDBDataSet.TableOne");
            pgmReportOne(FromDate, ToDate,   ds);
            ReportDataSource ds = new ReportDataSource("ReportDBDataSet.TableOne");
            ds.Value = dataset.Tables["TableOne"];
            ReportOneLocalReport.DataSources.Clear();
            ReportOneLocalReport.DataSources.Add(ds);
            this.reportViewer1.RefreshReport();
        private void pgmReportOne(DateTime FromDate, DateTime ToDate, DataSet ds)
            SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=ReportDBServer;Initial Catalog=ReportDB;Uid=sa;pwd=Password");
            string sqlReportOne = "Select ([InDate], [FirstName], [LastName], [AGe]" +
                               "from TableOne";
            SqlCommand command = new SqlCommand(sqlReportONe, connection);
            command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("paramFDate", FromDate));
            command.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("paramTDate", ToDate));
            SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(command);
            da.Fill(ds, "TableOne");
    Why does the last line throw an error?
    Thank you

Hi Scott
The *= is old syntax and not compatible with SQL Server 2012 (as stated in the comments).
You could do something like this instead
SELECT sso.SpecialOfferID
,Description
,DiscountPct
,ProductID
FROM Sales.SpecialOffer sso
left outer join Sales.SpecialOfferProduct ssop on sso.SpecialOfferID = ssop.SpecialOfferID
WHERE sso.SpecialOfferID != 1

Combine and simplify SELECT and UPDATE sql query

foreach (BidList t in bidList)
query = "SELECT operator_id, plot_id, status FROM booking " +
"WHERE status='open' AND postcode='" + _plot + "' AND operator_id='0'" +
"ORDER BY datetime ASC;" +
"UPDATE booking SET operator_id='" + t.OperatorId + "', status='allocated' " +
"WHERE (plot_id=" + t.PlotId + " AND operator_id='0' AND status='open') LIMIT 1;";
dbObject.InsertBooking(query);
I am cleaning up my code, and came across the above SQL query. Before I make use of SQL parameters, I wanted to ask if it is possible to combine them, and if so, how?

Consider making a single long query using ‘;’ as a separator:
    query = "";
    foreach (BidList t in bidList)
        query += "UPDATE . . . ; ";
    dbObject.InsertBooking(query);
Use StringBuilder for more improvements.

CRVS2010 Beta - Edit Sql query at runtine

Hello,
I'm migrating an old application in delphi to C#. This application is able to change the Sql query at run time (without using RecordSelectionFormula) to add filtering in where clause. I want to do the same, but I didn't found any equivalent property, and I don't think it's possible to convert the query into RecordSelectionFormula's format (too complex).
I can't modify rapports too btw.
Any help ?

Difference between Static SQL Query and Dynamic SQL Query.

Hi,
Please explain the basic difference between static and dynamic sql queries. Please explain with example.

SQL Query error in java swing Application

hi,
I'm getting the following error when i try to manipulate the date in query.I have set of tuples and would like to retrieve with respect to the date given.Please do help me to get rid of this error.This is the error.
MY QUERY:
ResultSet rsdate=st1.executeQuery("select * from phy_stock where date = "+d1+"");
Where d1 is given like this:
String startdate[2]="11/31/2008";
DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat ("MM/dd/yyyy"); //converting a string to DATE format.
Date d1 = df.parse(startdate[2]);
ERROR:
java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver] Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'date = Mon Sep 01 00:00:00 IST 2008'
thanks,
kumar.

Dates do not have formats. When referencing a Date in String concatenation, which is what you are doing here,
ResultSet rsdate=st1.executeQuery("select * from phy_stock where date = " + d1 + "");you will get what Date's toString method produces, which will not work for that (or any) query. For one, it wouldn't be surrounded by single quotes ('), and for two, the String format of the Date would not be acceptable by the DB (unless you had changed the DBs defaults).
Use a PreparedStatement, as suggessted above, and this problem goes away.
Edit: And make sure to use the setDate method, of course.
