Different people living at the same address, same account

I Display_name, address, account and a few other columns in a table. I need people (Display_name) at the same address with the same account number and a different name (Display_name). For example, spouses living at the same address and account numbers.

Please give me an idea with the sql. Thank you.

Hello

This sounds like a job for the COUNT function:

WITH     got_cnt       AS
(
     SELECT  display_name          -- or whatever columns you want
     ,     COUNT (DISTINCT display_name) OVER ( PARTITION BY  address
                                                     ,                    account
                                        ) AS display_name_cnt
     FROM    a_table
)
SELECT  display_name          -- or whatever columns you want
FROM     got_cnt
WHERE     display_name_cnt     > 1
;

Analytical functions are calculated after the clause WHERE is applied. Use the results of an analytic function in a WHERE clause, you must calculate the function in a subquery, then we can use this value in the WHERE clause (or elsewhere) of the request of the mother.

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.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get these results from these data.
Always tell what version of Oracle you are using.

  • Different people I have the same address.

    I have a table with columns ADDRESS DISPLAY_NAME, Startdate, Enddate, and ACCOUNT. I need sql to find different people living at the same address. Someone help me please. Thank you.

    Hello

    Welcome to the forum!

    Use the COUNT function to see how many times an ioccurs from the given address and displays only those of a COUNT > 1.
    You can use the COUNT aggregation function or the analytical COUNT function, like this:

    WITH     got_address_cnt     AS
(
     SELECT     x.*     -- Or list whatever columns you need
     ,     COUNT (*) OVER (PARTITION BY addrress)     AS address_cnt
     FROM     table_x   x
)
SELECT       *
FROM       got_address_cnt
WHERE       address_cnt     > 1
ORDER BY  address
;

    It's a good idea to do so whenever you have a problem. It allows you to specify exactly what the problem is and allows people to test their ideas.

    Always tell what version of Oracle you are using. The above query will work in Oracle 9 (and), but can be changed to run in Oracle 8.1.

  • Two different user names for the same account!

    We bought my son a laptop and have set up a user account for him which is a standard user account and an administrator account to monitor and adjust security settings. However, our administrator account on the configuration page and the login screen is called MumandDad (which is what we want!) but when you go into Windows Live or the list of records or other areas where the username is the user name is Joseph. User account from my son named Joseph on connect to the Setup page and the page, but once again under folders etc. it is called Joseph2 - what should I do so that all folders/accounts read the same as the log in / page of the control panel?

    Joseph2 is not an account name - is the name of the profile folder. If the name of the profile folder generally conform with the name of the account, there is sometimes a difference. There is nothing to worry about - just leave it as it is. Change it and can cause serious problems.

  • Can I create different consistency nodes in the same cluster with defferent?

    Can I create consistency different nodes in the same cluster with defferent cache - config.xml file?
    A cache can be distributed in these nodes of deffirent?

    Yes. You can create different consistency nodes in the same cluster with cache files - config.xml defferent as long as you use the same file tangosol - coherence.xml and the same file tangosol-coherence - override.xml. But you can't store the data in the cache in the various nodes (created with different cache-config file). In other words, a node only to create their own Hide modes that are launched with the same cache file - config.Xml.

    See the following demo:
    I start a cache using the cache config examples-cache file server - server.xml. Then I start a console cache storage-disabled people (client cache) by using the config file coherence-cache cache - config.Xml. Two of them using the same file tangosol - coherence.xml and the same file tangosol-coherence - override.xml.
    The cache server uses a cache service PartitionedPofCache. But the client side using the Distributedcache service. The cluster address is same 224.3.5.2.
    The name of the cluster is also samme. They know.

  • Different users calling different numbers for the same account

    Hello

    As a society, we have a single account which allows us to make phone calls. We know that more than one user, we can access the same account at the same time, however, could both users make calls at the same time? I mean the different calls.

    Example:

    The user has call + 39 02xxxxxxx

    User B calls + 44 95xxxxxx

    (both at the same time)

    Thanks in advance!

    I recommend a careful review of the conditions of use of Skype and the policies of fair use for subscriptions, according to these apply to your business:

    If I were an anti-fraud filter and I detected mulitple calls taking place at the same time, I would immediately take action, thinking that the account has been abused...

  • Why I have two different execution plans for the same query on two different servers

    Hello everyone.

    I need your help to solve the problem quickly.

    In a nutshell, we have two servers that have the same version of Oracle RDBMS (11.2.0.4 EE). One of them for purposes of development and another is a production one.

    We have therefore two different execution plans for the same query executed on both servers. The only case of execution is OK and another is too slow.

    So I have to slow down the work of query using the same scheme to explain that young.

    Let me know scenarios when different virtual machines with the same UUID created in VMware Hypervisors, aside from editing the .vmx file?

    The only other way I've seen is when you manually copy the virtual machine to another location on the data store (or another data store) and then when turn on/off the virtual machine, select I moved, rather that I copied it (the default option).  This will keep the same UUID.

    I want to know if I can use creative cloud with the same account on different computers, because my children want to she and I have known if I buy when I can use it on several computers at the same time

    If it is the individual subscription, you can activate on 2 computers only.

    However, there is no limit for installation, but you can connect and activate on 2 computers only.

    If you had already signed and activated CC apps on 2 computers, and there still if you want to activate on a 3' rd computer, you can simply disconnect one of the 2 comps, so that you can keep counties of activation.

  • Different block size in the same cluster

    Hello

    We use vSphere 4.0 U1. The size of the block of our VMFS data warehouses is configured as 1 MB.

    Is it possible to configure different block sizes in the same cluster without damaging the VMS and without affecting
    vMotion, SVMotion, FT, vDR, I/O performance, clone the virtual machine in another data store, deploy a VM in the data store different block size... etc?
    If it's ok then all limitations or disadvantages should we pay attention to?
    I have'nt found any document concerning the present and hope you guys can shed some light on this subject.
    Thanks in avdance.

    It is not question of having data with different block sizes stores - the only thing you need to keep in mind is the size limitations of different file between the block sizes - so you won't able to svmotion a virtual machine if the VMDK sizes are both great.

  • different text color in the same line for staticText ScriptUI?

    is it possible to have different text color in the same line for staticText ScriptUI?

    for example, I don't want red color for the word 'RED' text below in the SAME line.

    var l is new window ('dialog', 'Sélection');.

    var s = w.add ('statictext', undefined, "It's a RED pen");
    w.Show ();

    Thank you!!

    Simple,

    var w = new Window ("dialog","Selection"),
     g = w.add('group'),
     s1 = g.add('statictext', undefined,"This is a"),
     s2 = g.add('statictext', undefined,"RED"),
     s3 = g.add('statictext', undefined,"pen");
g.spacing = 4;
s2.graphics.foregroundColor = w.graphics.newPen(w.graphics.PenType.SOLID_COLOR,[1,0,0],  1);
w.show();

    I'm sure that's the answer makes sense "only".
