Another hierarchical query

Hello

Can frank, you help me again? Please? I'm still working on this hierarchical queries, and I think that you are the only person who can help you.

I need to do a SELECT complex between two tables. Your help in this previous post (complex in SELECT transformations has been very useful.

I learned a lot and almost all of the transformations that I put in place, but I have a really weird... I have to be able to limit the number of offspring for a given node.

Take this DEPARTMENT table, it is a simple HIERARCHICAL table. IDS are convinient, but in reality id are completely random:
SET DEFINE OFF;
DROP TABLE DEPARTMENTS;
CREATE TABLE DEPARTMENTS 
(
  dpt_id NUMBER(10), 
  parent_id NUMBER(10),
  dpt_name VARCHAR2(100)
);

INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1, null, 'Sales');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(2, null, 'Insurance');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(3, null, 'Accounting');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(4, null, 'R & D');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(5, null, 'IT');

INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(10, 1, 'Local Sales');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(11, 1, 'European Sales');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(12, 1, 'Asian Sales');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(13, 1, 'South American Sales');


INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(110, 11, 'Germany');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(111, 11, 'France');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(112, 11, 'Belgium');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(113, 11, 'Luxembourg');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(114, 11, 'Spain');


INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1101, 110, 'Berlin');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1111, 111, 'Paris');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1121, 112, 'Brussels');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1141, 114, 'Madrid');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1142, 114, 'Barcelona');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(1143, 114, 'Malaga');

INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(121, 12, 'China');


INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(20, 2, 'Car Insurance');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(21, 2, 'Home Insurance');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(22, 2, 'Family Insurance');


INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(200, 20, 'Bus');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(201, 20, 'Family car');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(2011, 201, 'Sub category for family car');
INSERT INTO DEPARTMENTS VALUES(202, 20, 'Sport car');
And I also have another table with gives for a given node, the number of offspring allowed for a given node.
CREATE TABLE LIMITATIONS 
( 
  dpt_id NUMBER(10), 
  lvl_cnt NUMBER(10) -- max descendants
);

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 4);
INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(11, 1);

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(2, 2);
INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(20, 2);
For example, the first record inserted into the table of limited means for the Department with id 4 take us 4 offspring. The strange thing is that the 11 node is a descendant of the node 11. And you override the value of its parent. At this level, substitute us the value and we accept only one descendant level.

The first example to delete the record from Berlin in the result.

The second pair of insertion is to have the second scenario I have to manage. Instead of substitute for a limitation of parent by reducing it, I must also support increasing values. A descendant node can
have more value than a parent one.

This second example keeps the Department with dpt_id = 2011. Even if I get only 2 descendant of the Department with id = 2.

Imagine this data set:

INSERT INTO departments values(10000000, 1000000, 'name 10000000');

When you CONNECT BY

SELECT LEVEL, dpt_id, parent_id, LPAD(' ', LEVEL) || dpt_name
FROM departments
START WITH parent_id IS NULL
CONNECT BY PRIOR dpt_id = parent_id;

You have 6 different level.

I have 8 different levels, not 6. You use 'level' to mean something other than the 1st column in the query above? Explain.

Imagine that I put on the limits of table to the following folder:

truncate table limitations;

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 4);

Then, select it I write should return only the first four results of my previous recordings (up to dpt_id = 1000).

But in the table, I should be able to establish a limit on any node in the tree. For example, insert a record for id = 100, then set it to a limitation of 2. And then, the limitation of the mother is overridden. This means that for 100 service, 2 other descending levels is recovered. (We assume that we cannot have broken trees. You can't say, add a limitation on the node with dpt_id = 1 to 1, then add a limitation on the 10000 to 1 node. Thats is not allowed).

SO if I add

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(100, 2);

Level 5 first on my select must be indicated. Because I asked to recover more than two levels of node 100 which is already at level 3.

Why 5 levels and not 4? When limit you the output to four levels of 1, you were level 1 in other words, the four levels are 1, 2, 3 and 4. When you are limiting the output at two levels of level 3, why are they not at these two levels 3 and 4?

But the limits can be to increase the depth of the tree to recover from a particular node or cut the knots.

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 10); -- get 10 descendent levels even if it only contains 6 levels.

What do you want on the last 4 lines of output in this case?

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(10, 2); -- override previous limitation and returns only 2 descendents from level 10. 

Do you really mean level 10, or do you mean dpt_id 10?

If I have ass these limitations (and delete the previous ones), I would like to show only the first 3 levels. Because dpt_id 10 is alread at level one.

Is not dpt_it = 10 to level * 2 *? Dpt_id = 1 is at level 1.

The limitation is not an account on descendants, there is a limitation in the level.

Doesn't that contradict what you said above in this post:

the column name is not very clear. And as you say, it should be more descendant_cnt

?

If a node has 100 direct descendants (children) at level + 1, and the limitation is level + 2, it must return all nodes. The limitation is the depth of a given node.

I don't know if this is clearer?

No, sorry. Please answer the questions above.

Here is the answer to a problem of intresting. This isn't the problem that you have requested in this message, or the problem you asked in your first post, but it may be the problem that you wanted to post:

WITH    got_limitations        AS
(
     SELECT     d.dpt_id
     ,     d.parent_id
     ,     d.dpt_name
     ,     l.lvl_cnt
     FROM           departments  d
     LEFT OUTER JOIN      limitations  l  ON  d.dpt_id     = l.dpt_id
)
,     tree     AS
(
     SELECT     LEVEL                    AS lvl
     ,     dpt_id
     ,     parent_id
     ,     LPAD ( ' '
                 , LEVEL - 1

     ,     LEVEL || SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH ( LEVEL + lvl_cnt - 1
                                  , ','
                                  )     AS max_lvl_path
     ,     ROWNUM                             AS r_num
     FROM     got_limitations
     START WITH     parent_id     IS NULL
     CONNECT BY     parent_id     = PRIOR dpt_id
)
SELECT       lvl
,       dpt_id
,       parent_id
,       d_name
FROM       tree
WHERE       lvl   <= TO_NUMBER ( REGEXP_SUBSTR ( RTRIM ( max_lvl_path
                                          , ','
                                   )
                              , '[0-9]+$'     -- Group of digits at the end
                              )
                    )
ORDER BY  r_num
;

Given the sample of departments and these data within the limits:

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 4);

It returns the 4 rows.
With the same data in departments and in the limits:

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 4);
INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(100, 2);

It produces 4 rows (not the 5 you asked).
If has limits of

INSERT INTO LIMITATIONS VALUES(1, 10); 

It returns 8 rows (not the 10 you asked).

  • How to write a hierarchical query so that only the child nodes are displayed?

    Hi all

    I have a hierarchical query that I use in an area of tree demand APEX and there are nodes that have no children and I am trying to find a way to not display these nodes. Essentially if the user does not have to develop a lot of knots to know that nothing exists at the most detailed level.

    The data are based on the Oracle Fusion FND tables but for example purposes here is enough data to illustrate my question:


    create table APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY (SOURCE_MODULE_ID varchar2(30), TARGET_MODULE_ID varchar2(30));
    create table APPL_TAXONOMY_TL (module_id varchar2(30), description varchar2(100), user_module_name varchar2(30), language varchar2(5));
    create table APPL_TAXONOMY (MODULE_ID    varchar2(30),    MODULE_NAME    varchar2(30), MODULE_TYPE varchar2(10),    MODULE_KEY varchar2(30));
    create table TABLES (table_name varchar2(30), module_key varchar2(30));
    
    

    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_TL values ('1', null, 'Oracle Fusion', 'US' );
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_TL values ('2', null, 'Financials', 'US' );
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_TL values ('3', null, 'Human Resources', 'US' );
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_TL values ('20', null, 'Accounts Payable', 'US' );
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_TL values ('10', null, 'General Ledger', 'US' );
    
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('1', 'DDDDDDDD');
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('2', '1');
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('3', '1');
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('4', '1');
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('10', '2');
    insert into APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY values ('20', '2');

    insert into tables values ('GL_JE_SOURCES_TL','GL');
    insert into tables values ('GL_JE_CATEGORIES','GL');
    

    My hierarchical query is as follows:

    with MODULES as
    (
    SELECT h.source_module_id, b.user_module_name, h.target_module_id
          FROM APPL_TAXONOMY_HIERARCHY H,
          APPL_TAXONOMY_TL B,
    APPL_TAXONOMY VL
    where H.source_module_id = b.module_id
    and b.module_id = vl.module_id
    and vl.module_type not in ('PAGE', 'LBA')
    UNION ALL
    select distinct table_name, table_name,  regexp_substr(table_name,'[^_]+',1,1) 
    from TABLES --needed as a link between TABLES and APPL_TAXONOMY
    union all
    select module_key as source_module_id, module_name as user_module_name, module_id as target_module_id  from appl_taxonomy VL where VL.module_type = 'APP')
    SELECT  case when connect_by_isleaf = 1 then 0
                when level = 1             then 1
                else                           -1
           end as status,
    LEVEL,
    user_module_name as title,
    null as icon,
    ltrim(user_module_name, ' ') as value,
    null as tooltip,
    null as link
          FROM MODULES
          START WITH source_module_id = '1'
          CONNECT BY PRIOR source_module_id = target_module_id
    ORDER SIBLINGS BY user_module_name;
    

    In Oracle APEX, this gives a tree with the appropriate data, you can see here:

    https://Apex.Oracle.com/pls/Apex/f?p=32581:29 (username: guest, pw: app_1000);

    The SQL of the query results are:

    The lowest level is the name of the table to level 5. HR is not any level under level 2, in the same way, "AP" (level 4) has nothing below, i.e. no level 5 and that's why I don't want to show these nodes. Is this possible with the above query?

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions!

    The following query will include only the nodes of level = 5 and their ancestors (or descendants):

    WITH modules LIKE

    (

    SELECT h.source_module_id

    b.user_module_name AS the title

    h.target_module_id

    To appl_taxonomy_hierarchy:

    appl_taxonomy_tl b

    appl_taxonomy vl

    WHERE h.source_module_id = b.module_id

    AND b.module_id = vl.module_id

    AND vl.module_type NOT IN ('PAGE', "LBA")

    UNION ALL

    SELECT DISTINCT

    table-name

    table_name

    , REGEXP_SUBSTR (table_name, ' [^ _] +')

    From the tables - required as a link between the TABLES and APPL_TAXONOMY

    UNION ALL

    SELECT module_key AS source_module_id

    AS user_module_name module_name

    module_id AS target_module_id

    Of appl_taxonomy vl

    WHERE vl.module_type = 'APP '.

    )

    connect_by_results AS

    (

    SELECT THE CHECK BOX

    WHEN CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1 THEN 0

    WHEN LEVEL = 1 THEN 1

    OF ANOTHER-1

    The END as status

    LEVEL AS lvl

    title

    -, NULL AS icon

    , LTRIM (title, "") AS the value

    -, NULL as ToolTip

    -, Link AS NULL

    source_module_id

    SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (source_module_id - or something unique

    , ' ~' - or anything else that may occur in the unique key

    ) || ' ~' AS the path

    ROWNUM AS sort_key

    Modules

    START WITH source_module_id = '1'

    CONNECT BY PRIOR Source_module_id = target_module_id

    Brothers and SŒURS of ORDER BY title

    )

    SELECT the status, lvl, title, value

    -, icon, tooltip, link

    OF connect_by_results m

    WHEN THERE IS)

    SELECT 1

    OF connect_by_results

    WHERE the lvl = 5

    AND the path AS ' % ~' | m.source_module_id

    || '~%'

    )

    ORDER BY sort_key

    ;

    You may notice that subqueries modules and the connect_by_results are essentially what you've posted originally.  What was the main request is now called connect_by_results, and it has a couple of additional columns that are necessary in the new main request or the EXISTS subquery.

    However, I am suspicious of the 'magic number' 5.  Could you have a situation where the sheets you are interested in can be a different levels (for example, some level = 5 and then some, into another branch of the tree, at the LEVEL = 6, or 7 or 4)?  If so, post an example.  You have need of a Query of Yo-Yo, where you do a bottom-up CONNECT BY query to get the universe of interest, and then make a descendant CONNECT BY query on this set of results.

    Hello

    I can't just writing this hierarchical query.

    CREATE TABLE resources
    (
        resource_name   VARCHAR2( 20 )

       ,resource_mgr_id NUMBER

    I also tried this:

    1. SELECT DISTINCT R.resource_name
    2. r.resource_id
    3. From r resources
    4. WHERE r.resource_id IN (SELECT DISTINCT r2.resource_mgr_id
    5. RESOURCE r2
    6. WHERE r.resource_id = r2.resource_mgr_id OR
    7. R2.resource_mgr_id IS NULL)
    8. ORDER BY 1;

    Which gives correct results, but isn't that a hierarchical query?

    It was the (almost) good solution to your problem.

    The only thing is:

    -you don't need to do a correlated subquery to solve the problem

    -you don't need to separate your subqurey

    -you don't need to separate your mainquery

    SELECT resource_name, id_ressource

    RESOURCES

    where id_ressource in (select r2.resource_mgr_id from r2 resources);

    would be sufficient.

  • Help with hierarchical query

    I'm trying to parse each string inside of individual characters. For this, I used the link by the hierarchical query clause. I am not able to use connect by correctly. Here is my example.

    with the CBC as)

    Select 1: the nurse, 'abc' double union all Str

    Select 2: the nurse, '123' Str of all union double

    Select 3: the nurse, "pqr xyz" dual union all Str

    Select option 4: the nurse, 'john doe' double Str

    )

    Select the level, homobasidiomycetes, substr(s.str,level,1) as chr

    s of the CBC

    connect nocycle level < = length (homobasidiomycetes)

    /

    The above query returns 3 028 lines when I want that 21. Adding a distinct to select, it's what I want.

    with the CBC as)

    Select 1: the nurse, 'abc' double union all Str

    Select 2: the nurse, '123' Str of all union double

    Select 3: the nurse, "pqr xyz" dual union all Str

    Select option 4: the nurse, 'john doe' double Str

    )

    Select distinct level, homobasidiomycetes, substr(s.str,level,1) as chr

    s of the CBC

    connect nocycle level < = length (homobasidiomycetes)

    order by str, level

    /

    For a large data set I could end up with several million rows before the separate would lead. So, how can I restrict the connection by clause to go within each line.

    Assuming that the AI is the primary key, you could do this:

    with src as (
      select 1 as rn, 'abc' as str from dual union all
      select 2 as rn, '123' as str from dual union all
      select 3 as rn, 'pqr xyz' as str from dual union all
      select 4 as rn, 'john doe' as str from dual
    )
    select level,
          s.str,
          substr(s.str,level,1) as chr
    from src s
    connect by level <= length(s.str)
              and prior rn = rn
              and prior dbms_random.value is not null;
    

    See DBMS_RANDOM.value in a hierarchical solution for string to table? for an exchange of views around the case.

    Alberto

    Hi, Alberto.

    I know that you are using Oracle 9; That's why I mentioned that you would have to use a substitute for CONNECT_BY_ROOT.  Before I could show how, I saw the solution of the Padders, which is probably simpler and more efficient for this work.  Padders used REGEXP_SUBSTR, which is not available in Oracle 9, but you can use SUBSTR and INSTR instead.

    Here is the solution of the Padders for Orcle 9:

    WITH got_resp_path AS

    (

    SELECT m.*

    RTRIM (SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (CASE

    WHEN resp = 'X '.

    THEN the code

    END

    , ' '

    )

    ) AS resp_path

    OF mydata m

    START WITH code_high IS NULL

    CONNECT BY code_high = code PRIOR

    )

    C. SELECT

    r.code AS resp_code

    r.cname AS resp_name

    r.csurname AS resp_surname

    OF got_resp_path c

    JOIN mydata r ON r.code = TO_NUMBER (SUBSTR (c.resp_path

    INSTR (c.resp_path

    , ' '

    -1

    )

    )

    )

    ORDER BY c.code

    ;

    I agree that what you posted in your last post is not very satisfactory.  Rather than make a CONNECT a separate query for each column of resp_ you want to view, you can modify it to get only the unique code and then use it in a join, as Padders, to get all the other columns you need.

  • Hierarchical data, how to aggregate over levels in hierarchical query?

    Hello

    I hope someone can help me.

    I held in a data table ("" what part was built in what other part of when when? "')
    ID parent_id build_in build_out
    1 NULL NULL NULL
    2/1 2010 2012
    3 2 2011 2013
    4 2 2013 NULL

    What are the parts is stored in a separate table.

    Now I want to know when when which part was built in the first level, in the example, I want to know that
    1 was simply a part of 1
    2 was part of 1 between 2010 and 2012
    3 was part of 1 between 2011 and 2012
    4 has never been a part of 1

    I tried several approaches - if there is a fixed number of levels between the types, I am interested I can do using joins and more/less (similarly as some nvl). Unfortunately this is not always the case (some parts appear on several levels).
    If I'm only interested in the parts that are never deleted, I can get by using a style of connect request and get the current configuration. But I can't seem to understand the time connecting part to the high level in such a query, or even filtering absurd combinations (like "4 in 1" in the example above). I could deal with the data recovered outside the database, but I prefer not.

    Is there a way to obtain the hierarchical data with an aggregate (min, max) for all levels?

    What version of Oracle you are on?

    In 11.2.x, you can use the recursive subquery factoring. Something like

    with t (id, parent_id, build_in, build_out) as (
    select 1, null, null, null from dual union all
    select 2, 1, 2010, 2012 from dual union all
    select 3, 2, 2011, 2013 from dual union all
    select 4, 2, 2013, null from dual
    )
    , c1 (root_id, id, parent_id, build_in, build_out) as (
    select id, id, parent_id, 0, 9999
    from t
    where parent_id is null
    union all
    select root_id, t.id, t.parent_id
    , greatest(nvl(t.build_in,0), nvl(b.build_in,0))
    , least(nvl(t.build_out,9999), nvl(b.build_out,9999))
    from c1 b, t
    where b.id = t.parent_id
    )
    select * from c1
    where build_in < build_out
    ;
    ROOT_ID ID    PARENT_ID  BUILD_IN  BUILD_OUT
    ------- ----- ---------- --------- ----------
    1       1                0         9999
    1       2     1          2010      2012
    1       3     2          2011      2012      
    

    With a hierarchical query by using the syntax connection, you could do something like

    select * from (
    select connect_by_root id as root, id
    , greatest(nvl(build_in,0), nvl(prior build_in,0)) as max_in, least(nvl(build_out,9999), nvl(prior build_out,9999)) as min_out
    from t
    start with parent_id is null
    connect by parent_id = prior id
    )
    where max_in < min_out
    ;
    

    but it is not powerful enough. This version compares the dates between a current and previous levels, but the recursive subquery is to compare the dates in the current level for the winners of the comparisons to the previous level. Not sure if it's an important distinction for your needs, however.

    If you are on 11.2 I advise to use the recursive subquery factoring. If this isn't the case, you can try the link by version.

    Kind regards

  • Getting the line without the use of hierarchical query values

    Hi all


    I want to know the hierarchical values without using a hierarchical query. I have two tables EMP, DEPT

    EMP table is to have two columns (empid, mgrid)

    Data of the EMP

    1,
    2, 1
    3, 2
    4, 3

    Data DEPT

    10, 1

    Each time, I gave deptid = 10, I need to know the this deptid empid then who is this empid (child levels as well). In this case, the output should be
    1
    2
    3
    4

    I don't want to use hierarchical query.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Problems with views based on a hierarchical query

    Datamodeler 3.1.3.706 (SQL Dev 3.2.10.09):

    When you create a view that uses a hierarchical query, the query designer encounter various difficulties:

    When pasting in the SQL code, if the notice is registered without first clicking the schema update button, the object in the entity-relationship diagram view provides a faithful representation of the view without errors, but when the reopening of the view, the code is missing.

    Simple example with the classic emp table:
    SELECT level lev
          , emp.*
       FROM emp
      CONNECT BY prior empno = mgr
      START WITH mgr        IS NULL
    If you press the schema update button to refresh the display. He mangles connect it by the clause and the view gets marked with a warning/error icon in the diagram of the relationships, but the now decomposed code remains available on reopening of the query designer.

    Same code as above after having clicked on the button of update of schema:
     SELECT Level lev
    , emp.*
       FROM emp
      CONNECT BY
    Other issues are met if the query contains a column CONNECT_BY_ % nickname hierarchical:
    SELECT level
          , emp.*
          , connect_by_root emp.ename root_ename
       FROM emp
      CONNECT BY prior empno = mgr
      START WITH mgr        IS NULL;
    In this case, paste in the code and clicking Update schema button or the OK button translates into a "unexpected Token' error analysis.

    These problems are encountered with the logic model and the relational.

    Is this a known issue? I searched this forum but have not found any references to this.

    Thank you

    Sentinel

    Hi, Sentinel,

    I logged a bug for this.
    You can try 3.3 DM treat it better first problem, analysis of connect_by_root operator will pass if you do not alias.

    I want to do a hierarchical query in my TreeView table in oracle. But I want that the query retrieves information path between two nodes.

    Review the table below.

    ------------------------------------------------------
    Node ID | Name of the node. ID of the parent
    -----------------------------------------------------
    1A 0
    2 1
    3C0
    4 2
    -----------------------------------------------------

    What I want is that I'll give you 2 node id in the request. One is the source node and the other is the destination node.
    so if I put 1 node and node 4, I want to be the output

    1-> 2-> 4

    I want just a return line. Or there may be several rows but stands only the node of this path.

    1
    2
    4
    ----

    This means that I don't want to node 3 in the search result.


    More if I have the source as 4 node and the node of destination as 1 then I will also get an output of the query as below-
    4-> 2-> 1

    This means that the search for the query for the result in a way directional bi.


    If anyone can give me some information about who it's going to be great for me.

    Hello

    Welcome to the forum!

    Assuming you have 2 separate nodes: Node_A and: node_b, you can find the hierarchy from one to the other like this:

    SELECT     SYS_CONNECT_BY_PATH (node_id, ',')     AS lineage
    FROM     table_x
    WHERE     node_id     IN (:node_a, :node_b)
    AND     LEVEL     > 1
    START WITH     node_id          IN (:node_a, :node_b)
    CONNECT BY     parent_id     = PRIOR node_id
    ;
    

    It will work if: the Node_A is an ancestor of the: node_b, or if: node_b is an ancestor of the: Node_A.
    If is the ancestor of the other, then it will produce 0 rows.

  • Get the value of the root of a hierarchical query

    I'm writing a hierarchical query for one of my paintings.

    I need to know the value of the root by entering a value of sheet of any level.

    for example: I enter a value which is at level 4. I need to find the value of the root without displaying the other levels.

    Help, please.

    Thank you.

    TRY THIS,

    SELECT     ename, PRIOR  ename MGRNAME
          FROM emp

    CONNECT BY PRIOR empno = mgr
