• Help with some PL/SQL triggers

  Hello, I'm totally new using PL/SQL, so I need your help with two triggers.
  For example
  1 compare two dates and check that there are different, you must send an error message
  
  2. when I insert a new record, a trigger must get data from other tables and Add (on a new record)
  
  Maybe not the answers, perhaps the way forward!
  Thks!

  Insert values into a new record of existing data tables

• Need help with ics. SQL return null

  Hi experts WCS.

  I have this ics. SQL statement that returns an IList as null and nothing in the errStr in debugging print.

  IList rsATypes is ics. SQL (, sqlATypes, listName, limit, bCache errStr);

  The code is in one of my jsp. He ran very well in my local JSK (HyperSQL Db), but returns NULL in the case of Test (Oracle DB, if this is another).

  I got the sql statement println during execution and run it directly in Oracle DB (same instance) it returns the expected result set.

  The code snippet:

    System.out.println("## ics.GetSSVar(\"pubid\")          : " + ics.GetSSVar("pubid"));
  
      // Get Attribute Types
      String sqlATypes = "SELECT DISTINCT assetpublication.assettype "
                       + "FROM assetpublication "
                       + "LEFT JOIN approvedassets "
                       + "    ON assetpublication.assetid = approvedassets.assetid "
                       + "WHERE pubid = '" + ics.GetSSVar("pubid") + "' "
                       + "AND (tstate is null OR tstate <> 'A') "
                       + "AND (voided is null OR voided <> 'T') "
                       + "ORDER BY assettype; ";
      System.out.println("##0126 sqlATypes : " + sqlATypes);
      String from = "AssetPublication, ApprovedAssets";
      // String listName = null;
      String listName = "ATypesList";
      int limit = -1;
      // boolean bCache = true;
      boolean bCache = false;
      StringBuffer errStr = new StringBuffer("");
      ics.ClearErrno();
      IList rsATypes = ics.SQL(from, sqlATypes, listName, limit, bCache, errStr);
  
      System.out.println("## rsATypes : " + rsATypes);
      if (rsATypes == null) {
          System.out.println("## NO DATA in rsATypes! errStr : " + errStr.toString());
  

  }

  The journal:

  ## ics.GetSSVar("pubid")          : 1374097570685
  ## sqlATypes : SELECT DISTINCT assetpublication.assettype FROM assetpublication LEFT JOIN approvedassets     ON assetpublication.assetid = approvedassets.assetid WHERE pubid = '1374097570685' AND (tstate is null OR tstate <> 'A') AND (voided is null OR voided <> 'T') ORDER BY assettype;
  ## rsATypes : null
  ## NO DATA in rsATypes! errStr :
  

  
  

  I got enclosing try catch block, who did not take any exception.

  
  

  The funny thing is, in the same piece of code, an ics. Casea used already worked (which I noticed outside because there was not enough for what I want to do):

          StringBuffer errSB = new StringBuffer("");
          ics.SetVar("assetid", id);
          IList approvedAsset = ics.SelectTo("ApprovedAssets", "state,voided,tstate,locked,reason,treason", "assetid", null, -1, null, true, errSB);
  

  Any help/ideas from anyone would be really appreciated.

  Thanks Guddu1223, I discovered why.

  The SQL statement cannot end with a semicolon (see line 11 of my original above codes). Delete who had back all the records provided for in my resultset in the IList.

  The reason why it works in my local, but not stable instance that I guess is my local JSK + HyperSQL, in WCS + Oracle DB instance trying...

• BlackBerry Smartphones need help with the word base to use

  I tried endless forums on help to use the basic features of the Doc to go to search. everyone seems to have a problem PDF, attachment problem or another problem of advanced feature, I can just transfer my Word documents on my blackberry and view them. From DataViz Web site had no answer for me.

  I have a BB storm, with VZW, using the most recent 4.7 OS it is a personal phone, so don't think it's a problem of BES.

  I'm not very Savy BB, this is my first phone which does more then call / SMS and I'm sure I've missed a step somewhere, it may not be difficult to get a word in my Storm doc and visualize it.

  I used the Desktop Manager to transfer documents word on my storm, I transferred to the default documents folder.

  I also tried drag-and - drop file to my blackberry just using my PC.

  also, I tried to send me an email and download the attachment.

  I can get the files from my storm, when I go to the media and to "explore" I can see the files, but I can't open them, according to the extension, it is said, is not an RTF file or unable to display file/Media card/blackberry/documents/""".wps

  And when I try to access it directly from the Word go, it appears same.

  Am I missing something?

  Any help would be appreciated, I think I'm missing something or I missed a step somwhere.

  If someone can share with me a step by step how to send a word document (what to save it under) for my blackberry (where to put) and in fact he discovered (where to go) would be great.

  also I missed something permissions? I set everything on Documents to go to 'allow' and reset the firewall.

  Hello and welcome!

  Looks like you do everything right. I just sent myself a doc word opened the email and who launched Word to Go. I then closed and saved and can be found only through Media-Explorer or by first launching WordToGo and then open it. So it seems that something is wrong with yours.

  First thought - there was an update for Documents To Go... the current version is 1.006 (052) - find who spear one of the applications To Go and then open the menu (button BB) and selecting "about...". ». If you are on an older version, first advice is to get the update (another selection in this menu). Then try again.

  Second thought - which version of Word? I noticed my WordToGo talks about reading through Word2004 (I think they mean 2003). If you try to use a document of 2007 (.docx), it might not work.

  Hello, Howard.

  Thanks for posting the sample data!  Don't forget to post the exact results you want from these data.

  Looks like you want something involving everyday of the month, they have a day corresponding to your table or not.  This looks like a job for an outer join.

  This should give you some ideas:

  WITH days_wanted AS

  (

  SELECT TO_CHAR (LEVEL, 'fm00') n

  OF the double

  CONNECT BY LEVEL<=>

  )

  SELECT d.n

  t.study_date

  NVL2 (t.study_date

  'Yes '.

  'No '.

  ) AS in_table_x

  OF days_wanted d

  LEFT OUTER JOIN table_x t ON t.study_date = d.n

  ORDER BY d.n

  ;

  Output:

  STUDY_DATE N IN_TABLE_X

  --- ---------- ----------

  01 NO.

  02 02 Yes

  03 03 Yes

  04 04 Yes

  05 05 Yes

  Yes 06 06

  07 NO.

  08 NO.

  09 09 Yes

  10 10 Yes

  11 11 Yes

  23 NO.

  24 NO.

  25 NO.

  26 NO.

  27 NO.

  28 NO.

  29 NO.

  30 NO.

  You must use a DATE for study_date, not a VARCHAR2 column.  What will you do if you have days of different months in the table?

• Help with MS Access SQL Developer Import (problem of DateTime field)

  So here's my dilemma...

  I am currently trying to import from MS Access to SQL Developer, by exporting MS Access to MS Excel and then import in my table of the exporting Excel sheet. What happens is that when I import the excel sheet, it is does not keep the format of date/time / I tried several different formats, but everyone seems to exclude the time and the date.

  My field of date/time is currently set up like this on SQL Developer:

  DD/RRRR/MM HH: MM: SS AM/PM

  And the Excel sheet, I'm importing the field corresponding, defined as follows:

  mm/dd/yyyy/hh/mm/ss AM/PM

  The answer (s) I'm importing is as follows:

  Date/time physical_cpu server_id

  01/11/2013-12:01:23 AM scc415 6.03999996

  When the record is imported, it eliminates the time, so the imported data are:

  Date/time physical_cpu server_id

  01/11/2013 6.03999996 scc415

  Any idea on how to get this timestamp to import properly? Many appreciate the ideas in advance!

  Looks like I have found the solution. For some reason, export to leave access to Excel first and then open and save the file as a .csv instead of a .xlsx, date/time information are maintained. This problem has been resolved.

  Found the solution on the following link for anyone interested.

• Help with APP_USER in SQL query

  Hello
  
  I would like to extract a detail of the user in a form of language element DML based on the logged in user and the standard authentication scheme.
  
  I make this request in the element:
  

   select ANALYST_FIRST_NAME ||' '|| ANALYST_LAST_NAME d, ANALYST_ID r from QTMT_ANALYST where EMAIL = :APP_USER 

  The user in the session is equal to the value of the EMAIL. In fact, the value in the session is a capital letter, and the other in the database is tiny. I think that's irrelevant anyway.
  
  The query do not of any value. Could you please let me know what I did wrong?
  
  APEX: 4.2
  Item Source type: query SQL (single return value)
  
  Thank you and best regards,
  
  Vladimir

  To be on the safe side you should uppercase both sides of the equation. It could be that the user name is entered in lowercase.

  But if you think that your request is correct, test it by using a literal rather than the user name.

  select ANALYST_FIRST_NAME ||' '|| ANALYST_LAST_NAME d
  from QTMT_ANALYST
  where upper(EMAIL) = upper(:APP_USER);
  

  for testing purposes, use something like this:

  select ANALYST_FIRST_NAME ||' '|| ANALYST_LAST_NAME d
  from QTMT_ANALYST
  where upper(EMAIL) = upper('[email protected]');

• Help with vdmk migration of RDM using vmkfstools-i

  Hi all

  I need to migrate a 590GB hard file to a RDM in virtual compatibility mode.

  I want to avoid using a method of file copy there are has over 6 million of small files on this volume.

  I'm came across a blog that said this could be done using the ' vmkfstools-i "command and I saw other posts here on the community forums that tell a similar story."

  I have three questions:

  • The virtual machine should be turned off when you use "vmkfstools-i" command?

  • The following syntax would be just so executed with the VM source directory and assuming that vmhba1:0:2:0 is the path to the RDM LUN on the SAN: vmkfstools rdm d-i F - drive.vmdk F-Drive - rdm.vmdk: / vmfs/devices/drives / vmhba1:0:2:0

  • Should I join/create the ROW for the virtual machine before or after that I use "vmkfstools-i" command?

  Thank you!

  The virtual computer source must be turned off.

  Your command syntax is good

  The command will create the mapping RDM once finished you just add to your virtual machine

  Hello

  You RPAD does nothing, because they are identical:

  SQL> SELECT NULL AS "Record Add ID",
    2         NULL AS "Record Add Date",
    3         NULL AS "Record Change ID",
    4         NULL AS "Record Change Date" FROM DUAL;
  
  R R R R
  - - - -
  
  SQL>
  

  Does not see why the leadership of the COLUMN should not do what you want. Maybe you forgot the quotes?

  SQL> COL "Record Add ID" FOR a18
  SQL> COL "Record Add Date" FOR a18
  SQL>
  SQL> SELECT NULL AS "Record Add ID",
    2         NULL AS "Record Add Date",
    3         NULL AS "Record Change ID",
    4         NULL AS "Record Change Date" FROM DUAL;
  
  Record Add ID      Record Add Date    R R
  ------------------ ------------------ - -
  
  SQL>
  

  PS: You probably shouldn't affect the width of a column that is smaller than the length of the header
