Viewing tables in sql plus

hai friends.,
i created a java database pgm using jdbc:odbc connectivity, that creates a table in the database and i inserted some records in that table. how can i view those table and records in the sql plus. what commands are used to view those table
regards.,
sekar

Hi sekar,
Interesting, you're able to do a 'CREATE TABLE bla...' but are not familiar with 'SELECT'? I would suggest to read some basic stuff about SQL statements. What will you do when the next task is: "Hey, I need a pgm to change these values in the table!"?
Regards,
Guido

VIEW XML IN SQL*PLUS

how can we view xml on sql*plus?
when xmltype is viewed on sql*prompt it shows incomplete xml.
example:
SQL> select xmlelement("ROOT",xmlforest(1 as A, 2 as B, 3 as C)) from dual;
XMLELEMENT("ROOT",XMLFOREST(1ASA,2ASB,3ASC))
<ROOT>
<A>1</A>
<B>2</B>
<C>3</C>
</ROOT>
but i generate an xml from table so it becomes quite huge. say a forest is populated with 6-8 tags. it shows broken output.
SQL> /
ID LIST
<DEPT>
<EMPLOYEE>
<ID>2109</ID>
<ID>3108</ID>
<ID>4107</ID>
<ID>5106</ID>
<ID
i have tried increasing bufferwidth and bufferlength tp max value (1000 and 2000 respectively) eventhen it displays the output as shown above.
how can i view my xml?

use this sql plus command:
set long 2000000
You can increase\decrease the value as required.

DISPLAY UNDEFINE TABLES IN SQL PLUS

i am using Oracle 10g
for last 1 week i seen unrecognized table names in my user while i issue following command
SQL > select * from tab;
table name like ......BIN$ and many other characters after it...
i cannot drop that table also
from DBA studio above table can't view but from SQL PLUS it display as table
what i have to do to drop such tables ? please give advice

These are recyclebin tables. A normal 'drop table' command puts a table into the recyclebin, you can get it back through 'flashback drop' command. Use 'purge user_recyclebin' to delete the tables finally.

Apex 4.0 - Can see view data in SQL*Plus but no data in Object Browser

Hi There,
I have just started using Apex 4.o and migrated some apps. I have an issue with a report, but see the same issue with Object browser, which is easier to describe.
I have a view:
create or replace view V_PLJ_USERDEF_CODES (
         CODE_SET_ID,
         CODE_SET_CODE,
         CODE_SET_DESC,
         CODE_ID,
         CODE_SYS_CODE,
         CODE_VALUE,
         CODE_DESC,
         DISPLAY_SEQ,
         DISPLAY_FLAG,
         LANGUAGE_CODE) as
select CS.CODE_SET_ID,
         CS.CODE_SET_CODE,
         CS.CODE_SET_DESC,
         C.CODE_ID,
         C.CODE_SYS_CODE,
         C.CODE_VALUE,
         C.CODE_DESC,
         C.DISPLAY_SEQ,
         C.DISPLAY_FLAG,
         C.LANGUAGE_CODE
    from PLJ_CODES C,
         PLJ_CODE_SETS CS
   where C.CODE_SET_ID         = CS.CODE_SET_ID
     and CS.CODE_SET_TYPE_CODE = SYS_CONTEXT('PLJUMPSTART','C_USERDEF_CODE_SET');This returns data in SQL*Plus, but no data in Object Browser OR report region based on this view.
Workspace parses in the same schema as tested in SQL*Plus.
If, in report, I swap out view, and use underlying table - no problem.
Any ideas -
thanks
P

Hi all,
Thanks for getting back so promptly.
It just seems weird to me, as tables are just fine, but not views.
In the underlying schema:
SQL> sho user
USER is "ICSREPORTING"
SQL> select count(*) from plj_codes;
COUNT(*)
       107
SQL> select count(*) from v_plj_userdef_codes;
COUNT(*)
        29And in the APEX schema
SQL> sho user
USER is "APEX_040000"
SQL> select count(*) from icsreporting.plj_codes;
select count(*) from icsreporting.plj_codes
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
SQL> select count(*) from icsreporting.v_plj_userdef_codes;
select count(*) from icsreporting.v_plj_userdef_codes
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
SQL>However, in SQL browser, I can see the data in PLJ_CODES but in V_PLJ_USERDEF_CODES, just the message "This view has no data". Indeed, it is like this for all views.
I even explicitly granted access to APEX_040000 but no good.
In fact, I would like to know more about how Apex gets access to do DML against the underlying parsing schema(s).
This is a little frustrating though. It worked just fine in lots of apps in version 2.1 to 3.2
Am I missing something
paul
p.s I knew there would be a question about the context, but I had already checked that. :)

Need to find out View definition by SQL PLUS

Hi,
I have a view VW_XXX, I want to know by which table this view has created. But need to use only SQL PLUS not any tool.
Please let me know how cani see the full definitio of the view by SQL PLUS.
Regs,
brij

Yes, it will work for both 9i and 10g. Just run the commands, and you will get the output.
These are not "Dangerous Commands!!!"

Edited by: Girish Sharma on Dec 26, 2011 5:19 PM
To solve these issues Oracle9i has introduced the DBMS_METADATA package which can be used to retrieve object definitions as DDL or XML. There are a number of ways to use the API, but I suspect the majority of people will only ever use the following functions.

Crystal view table or SQL view table

In Crystal and SQL there have lot of View tables. What kind of table called View table? What's the difference with tables without view prefix?
I think view tables are few tables linked together for designers to use instead need to link few tables by themselves.
How to create view table and the purpose using view tables?

Hi,
A view tables is, in essence, a virtual table. It does not physically exist. Rather, it is created by a query joining one or more tables.
[click here|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/View_(database)]
You can search on the web for more samples.

Populating table using SQL*Plus

Hi,
I am trying to populate my destination table from the source using SQL*Plus. I keep get error message. The source table has 6 columns and the destination table has 11 columns. Data_type are different in both table. The following is my script and the output of the script:
insert into bim_expense_element
(select table_type_id, table_code_desc,
table_value_4, table_value_6,
table_description_1 | | table_description_2
from edim_expense_element)
SQL> /
insert into bim_expense_element
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00947: not enough values
Please let me know what I did wrong. Thanks.
Esther

Hi Esther,
You need to tell to Oracle what columns to fill in your insert like this:
insert into bim_expense_element(bim_type_id, bim_code_desc, bim_table_value4, bim_table_value6, bim_description)
select table_type_id, table_code_desc,
table_value_4, table_value_6,
table_description_1 | | table_description_2
from edim_expense_element
If the fields aren't of the same type you'll need to convert.

Can't view tables in SQL database

Hi,
I'm using DW CS4 to connect to SQL server 2005. I can connect to my database, but when I try to create a recordset, the only tables I can view or select is everything in the System Tables and System Views - not the tables that I actually want to select.
e.g.
dbo.dtproperties
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CHECK_CONSTRAINTS
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMN_DOMAIN_USAGE
etc.
I guess this is to do with administering SQL server but even going through SQL server documentation online I can't seem to figure it out. Is it to do with Views and/or schemas in SQL server management studio? Please help!

Have you connected to the database using SQL Server Management Studio and looked at the tables and fields to be sure all is in order?

How to insert data which contains '&' from SQL*Plus without asking prompt

Hi,
I want to insert data in table from SQL*Plus but data value contains '&' as given in below example(insert script).
There are 10000 rows. When I load from SQL*Plus it is asking for 'value for :P'.
I dont want to replace '&' with 'and' also there should not be prompt for asking value for :P.
Example
Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034678','S&P');
Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034676','S&F');
Insert into CS_Tracker (TrackId,FeedBack) values ('ARARGE034677','A&P');
Can anyone help me in above issue.
Thanking in Advance

SQL*Plus formatting

Can someone know how to configure login.sql to view data from SQL*Plus just like in standard MySQL output?

as to the one column per line, I would recommend increasing your LINESIZE
set linesize 1000
to get the vertical bar between things
set colsep |
to force a row of underscores between each line
set recsep each
don't think we can do the "+"
and I hope the lack of spaces (positional output) is due to the lack of "[ pre ]" tags in your post

2. Windows Language is german
I should be possible to insert the chinese characters into the table from the SQL*Plus (sqlplusw.exe) and SQL*Plus should be able to show the chinese characters from that table.
Is there any Step-By-Step Tutorial for the changes, that I should provide?
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

I have a table CHINESE with one column STRING
NVARCHAR2(250). There I will store the chinese
character and display the content in SQL*Plus.
Into the table I will insert with SQL*Plus with
INSERT Statement.
To store the character you could use e.g.
insert unistr(<unicode value expression>) into table But Sql*Plus does not support Unicode display. Use SQL Developer instead for displaying your table data.
You could also use select dump(column,1016) from table to verify that character data is correctly converted and stored.
Windows Codepage is 1252.
What do you mean under "what is your corresponding
NLS_LANG client char set setting" ?With acp 1252, your NLS_LANG should contain .WE8MSWIN1252 - this tells Oracle your acp setting.
Note however that windows-1252 does not define any Chinese characters.
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/sbcs/1252.mspx
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/htdocs/nls_lang%20faq.htm
You can read more about Unicode string literals in Oracle in chapter 7 Programming with Unicode, Globalization Support guide in 10.2. Also you probably should read about NCHAR literal replacement (available only in 10.2 and above).

Viewing Binary data in SQL*PLUS

hi all,
when i select a table to view the content, i received an error which i shown below.
SP2-0678: Column or attribute type can not be displayed by SQL*Plus
the error seems that the binary data cannot be view thru SQL PLUS.
do anybody have idea to solve this issue.
thanks in advance

Probably you are trying to view BLOB data. Try this to view the data:
SQL> CREATE TABLE t (a BLOB)
2 /
Table created.
SQL> INSERT INTO t
2 VALUES (UTL_RAW.cast_to_raw ('Hello World'))
3 /
1 row created.
SQL> SELECT UTL_RAW.cast_to_varchar2 (a) a
2 FROM t
3 /
A
Hello World

Cannot see table in sql developer or sql plus

I have created a record in application designer. I have then built the table. I can close the record and then find it again in application designer. But if I go to sql plus or sql developer, I cannot see it. Am I missing a step?

You probably can see all the tables of sysadm because someone else give you proper grant for that on existing sysadm's objects.
For the new or modified object (drop+create) you should :
1. connect as sysadm and run
grant select on new_table_name to your_own_user;2. connect with your own user and run
create synonym new_table_name for sysadm.new_table_name;Then you'll be able to query that table without using schema name alias.
Some admin have also a ddl trigger to make it automatically.
You could also work through a role and public synonym if more than one user needs to access sysadm's objects.
