• using case when statement or decode unfavorable in where clause

  Hi the gems...
  
  I have a problem in the following query...
  I try to use when case statement in where clause of a select query.
  
  
  Select cr.customer_name. ' - ' || CR.customer_number as cust_name,
  CR. Salary salary
  of customer_details cr
  where (case when ' > ' = ' > ' then ' cr.salary > 5000')
  When ' > ' = ' < ' then ' cr.salary < 5000'
  When ' > ' = '=' and then 'cr.salary = 5000'
  Another null
  (end);
  
  
  the expression in the when clause of the statement of the case, when comes from HQ and according to the choice I have to make the where clause.
  That is why, for the execution of the query, I put ' > ' in this place.
  
  If the original query will look like this (for reference):
  
  Select cr.customer_name. ' - ' || CR.customer_number as cust_name,
  CR. Salary salary
  of customer_details cr
  where (case when variable = ' > ' then ' cr.salary > 5000')
  When the variable = ' < ' then ' cr.salary < 5000'
  When the variable = '=' and then 'cr.salary = 5000'
  Another null
  (end);
  
  
  so, in a real case, if the user selects ' > ' then the filter will be ' where cr.salary > 5000.
  If the user selects ' < ' then the filter will be ' where cr.salary < 5000.
  If the user selects '=', then the filter will be 'where cr.salary = 5000 '.
  
  but I get the error "ORA 00920:invalid relational operator.
  
  Help, please... Thanks in advance...

• Need help with CASE When statement in a Where Clause

  So I have a SQL (simplified for this forum)
  
  Select t1.*
  from table1, table2 t2 t1
  where t1.field1 = t2.field1
  and when t1.field2 is null then trunc (sysdate) < = trunc (t1.date1 + 17)

  I end up getting an error ORA-00905: lack of keyword
  
  I'm sure that I just got something here involved.

  You can not make the comparison within the statement underlying case like this. Assuming you have appropriate data types, something like this should work

  Select t1.*
  from table1 t1, table2 t2
  where t1.field1 = t2.field1
    and ((t1.field2 is null and
          trunc(sysdate) <= trunc(t1.date1 + 17)) or
         trunc(sydate) > = trunc(t2.date2 + t2.date3))

• using a Case statement to display the values of column even as table headers

  I have a database that has been set up kind of tricky, in that some tables are made up of columns that are field names and one link to another table that contain the data for these field... also names there ID displays as many lines instead of as a row of data. I would like to write a query to extract that information and display it as one line for each ID.

  example: table 1

  ID, name, itemresponse and itemcode, Description

  Dee Jones Childrens Hospital 123 SITE location

  123 dee Jones, Date of appointment next NEXTAPPT 22/04/2014

  123 dee Jones was on bedrest NOSHOW reason do not show

  I would like to have the display of data as a record on this same patient, instead of as 3 separate registers (with the Description column in table 1

  Table 2

  ID, name, place, Date of the next meeting, show no reason

  123 dee Jones Childrens Hospital 22/04/2014 was the bed rest

  Hello

  DATE is not a very good name for a column.  Use something like EVENT_DATE, that will not be confused with a keyword from Oracle, instead.

  I don't see something like this column in the CREATE TABLE statement.  He will always be the same value on all lines?

  Here's a way to get the results you requested:

  SELECT id

  first name | ' ' || LastName AS name

  Date of birth

  MAX (CASE WHEN item_code = "NEXTAPPT", THEN item_response END) AS next_appointment,

  MAX (CASE WHEN item_code = "LASTDATE" THEN item_response END) AS last_visit_date,

  MAX (CASE WHEN item_code = "SITE" THEN item_response END) AS location

  FROM mytable1

  GROUP BY id, firstname, lastname, dob

  ;

  Of course, I can't test it very well until you post INSERT statements for the sample data.

  I guess that 2 or more lines of the entry have the same id, then they will necessarily be first name last name, the name and date of birth, too.  No doubt they are standardized in your actual tables.

  Post a backtrace of the page see the request and the item type properties and the source / default to the value of the P8_MONEY_SAVED_FLAG element.

  Seems to be similar to ORA-06592 with the page only items appear, which also involved a master/detail form. Can you reproduce this on apex.oracle.com?

• Error number invalid when using case when

  TEST_COLUMN
  rare ecosystem
  rare

  0
  (null)
  (null)
  
  what I want is a query that will add a column called NRE_SCORE that will give each instance of line a score of 0 if it is null.
  If it is 0, then the score should be 0.
  If the line contains any text, partition should be 1
  
  I wrote the request:

  Any text other than '0', you mean. I guess that doesn't matter if this text is all the numbers, like '9876 'or something with no numbers, as 'rare'.

  You are not actually doing arithmetic, but you compare your VARCHAR2 column, so he tries to convert the string to a NUMBER, and that's why you get the error ORA-01722.

  I'm using oracle 11g.

  Here's one way:

  SELECT       CASE
             WHEN  NVL (test_column, '0') = '0'
             THEN  0
             ELSE  1

  ,       ...          -- you must want other columns, too
  FROM       national_rare_ecosystems
  ;
  

  Since you are not really care on the numerical value, do not use numbers anywhere; stick with VARCHAR2s, for example '0'.

  I hope that answers your question.
  If not, post a small example data (CREATE TABLE and only relevant columns, INSERT statements) and also publish outcomes from these data.
  Point where the above query was to get erroneous results, and explain, using specific examples, how you get these results of the sample data in these palces.

• REG: CASE WHEN IN WHERE WOULD ADOPT

  Hi friends, this is my query SELECT DISTINCT FILE_DIRECTION FROM RA_PROCESS_ID_MAP WHERE FILE_DIRECTION = (CASE WHEN "TAP" = "TAP" and (FILE_DIRECTION = 'A' AND FILE_DIRECTION = 'TI'), THEN WHEN 'NRTRDE"THEN FILE_DIRECTION =" NEITHER "WHEN 'SWITCH' AND FILE_DIRECTION = 'SO' END) = 1; its me given expression error... Please help.

  If this is what he wants, then it is probably more clear to remove the CASE statement total:

  Select distinct file_direction

  of ra_process_id_map

  where (: b1 = 'TAP' and file_direction in ('TO', 'TI'))

  or (: b1 = "NRTRDE' and file_direction = 'NOR')

  or (: b1 = 'SWITCH' and file_direction = 'IF')

  I think the just CASE statement confuses the issues and has clearly confused the heck out of the op.

• Question Case simple statement

  Nice day:

  In this simple case statement, Oracle evaluates the when of 2nd or 3rd paragraph, or stops completely after reviewing the 1st (when returning in real life of course)?

  Select

  Case

  When 1 = 1 then 'a '.

  When 1 = 1 then 'b '.

  When 1 = 1 then 'c '.

  End 'test cases '.

  Of the double

  I know that the result of this query is 'a', but I was just curious to know if Oracle knows that 1 = 1 is 'b' and 'c' also, but he returned the 1st, since it is what first evaluated as true.

  Thank you

  Completely, which seems to be a question of DATA. Have you checked if the table contains data for DATE_DT = SYSDATE - 1? Can you check if the data stored do not have hours and Minutes stored?

  Although I have provided examples of data, which is the same as the data in my main table and once I used the previous solution you provided and then also gives the result as same as those mentioned by you.

  I think it's something like -

  select date_dt, sysdate - 1 prev_dt, trunc(sysdate - 1) trunc_prev_dt,
  case when date_dt = trunc(sysdate -1) then  366/day_num_yr where day_num_yr=(select day_num_yr from date_dim where date_dt = trunc(sysdate -1))
  else 0
  end num_day
  from date_dim;
  

  Once we get the day_num_yr then he deviding by 366/day_num_yr :(
  but he does not like throwing an error ORA-95 - missing keyword

  Yes, it does not work

  -case when date_dt = trunc (sysdate-1) then 366/day_num_yr where day_num_yr = (select day_num_yr from the date_dim where date_dt = trunc (sysdate-1))

  due to a syntax of alien.
  I don't think that you really need. I already said, with the data in your Table, you will be having only * 1 * record with a Non - zero value. Thus, simply apply a filter to extract the corresponding record SYSDATE - 1 and you should get an output which is Non-zero. If you apply a where predicate, then would not need you a CASE statement. You can directly use something like below:

  select date_dt, sysdate - 1 prev_dt, trunc(sysdate - 1) trunc_prev_dt,
         365 / day_num_yr num_day
    from t4
   where date_dt = trunc(sysdate - 1);

• PL/SQL and Case &lt; href &gt; statement

  I have just a bit of code in Pl/SQL, and since I had to put this Case statement with javascript I can't get the correct syntax. Can someone please help with the ' and ' in this statement?
  
  Thank you
  
  {code}
  
  v_query: = "SELECT";
  
  v_query: =.
  v_query | Case when sd.sd_id = 1 then ' < a href = "javascript:fnc_tabAddUser (v1); ' > '
  || "< img src =" #WORKSPACE_IMAGES #sd.png ">"
  || "< /a >."
  end as open_sd | "category", | ' s1.sub_cat_1,'| '. S2.sub_cat_2,' | "program", | "sd.sd_name," | "sd.sd_date," | "s2.synopsis," | "sd.sd_id,";
  
  {code}
  
  Basically, most of the v_query is her go and where clauses but here is simply the select clause. I can post the whole code if it helps. Everything works fine until I entered the Case statement and I believe that my syntax is off. Also, I tried to read and find similar code and some mentioned using Htp.p but I don't know if necessary.

  There was also a problem with your order of. There was no space for text is released which looks like this:

  '', 1) > 0ORDER BY 1 DESC 
  

  This gives a shot. I don't bother to do the tables, so it may not always work.

  DECLARE
     v_query   VARCHAR2 (4000);

             transform((TOKENS, "{", "}", " ; "))
             transform((TOKENS, "{", "}", "AND"))
             transform((TOKENS, "{", "}", "ACCUM"))
           
         
        
      ';
  
     v_query := 'SELECT   ';
     IF :p1_search_string IS NOT NULL
     THEN
        v_query := v_query || 'score (1) relevance, ';
     ELSE

• problem case simple statement

  I use sql developer can I execute this simple statement
  Select
  'DIARY ',.
  "TIME_MADE,"
  CASE "USERNAME".
  WHEN: P1_ALL = 'X' THEN '% '.
  WHEN: P1_ALL = ' ' THEN: P1_USERNAME
  ELSE '% '.
  END,
  "TYPECODE".
  "OLDVALUE",.
  "NEWVALUE"
  "CUBE_NAME."
  "DIM1."
  "DIM2."
  "DIM3."
  "DIM4."
  "DIM5."
  "6."
  "FILENAME."
  "LOD_ROWNUM,"
  "INSERT_TIMESTAMP,"
  "UPDATE_STAMPTAMP,"
  "ETL_VERSION,"
  'FILE_DATE '.
  of 'FCT_TM1_LOGS '.
  
  
  
  The error is
  ORA-00905: lack of keyword
  00905 00000 - 'lack the key word'
  * Cause:
  * Action:
  Error on line: column 5:15
  
  
  I did provide the variables in sql developer but still had this error, what is the problem?

  Your problem is the following:
  CASE "USERNAME".
  WHEN: P1_ALL = 'X' THEN '% '.
  WHEN: P1_ALL = ' ' THEN: P1_USERNAME
  ELSE '% '.
  END,
  What is the purpose of the username? Did you mean it?
  CASE
  WHEN: P1_ALL = 'X' THEN '% '.
  WHEN: P1_ALL = ' ' THEN: P1_USERNAME
  ELSE '% '.
  END "USERNAME."
  in this case "USERNAME" is the alias you give to this column. Where he is now, it makes no sense.
