  Hello

  CASE expressions return a single value, for example a VARCHAR2. They do refer to code fragments.

  You usually don't need (or want) an expression BOX in a WHERE clause, or any other condition. I think that you were trying to do the equivalent of:

  AND     (     (:KAPCO = 'KAPCO'          AND cla.CLASS_NAME       LIKE '%KAPCO%')     -- Don't you want UPPER on this line?
       OR     (:KAPCO = 'NON_KAPCO'           AND UPPER(cla.CLASS_NAME) NOT LIKE '%KAPCO%')
       OR     (NVL (:KAPCO, 'ALL') = 'ALL'       AND cla.CLASS_NAME IS NOT NULL)
       )
  

  If you would care to post some sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements) and the results desired from this data, I was able to test this.

• How to use a function inside the package?

  Hello
  
  You will need to convert weight unit of kilogram kips when filling out the weight values into a temporary table. In our database, schema there is a function called convert_units is available.
  How could I use this feature in my package? My package is also resides in the same database schema.
  
  Here, I pasted the function.
  

       convert_units
     (
       in_base_unit_id       NUMBER,
       in_conversion_unit_id NUMBER,
       in_value              NUMBER
     ) RETURN NUMBER AS
  CURSOR unit_cur IS
    SELECT *
    FROM units_conversion
    WHERE base_unit_id = in_base_unit_id
      AND conversion_unit_id = in_conversion_unit_id;
  unit_rec unit_cur%ROWTYPE;
  BEGIN
    OPEN unit_cur;
    FETCH unit_cur INTO unit_rec;
    IF unit_cur%NOTFOUND THEN
      unit_rec := NULL;
    END IF;
    CLOSE unit_cur;
    RETURN (in_value+unit_rec.pre_adjust_add)*(unit_rec.rate);
  END convert_units;

  Hello

  It seems that the first two arguments of this function are ID in the units_conversion table. If you know this id = 1234 means kilograms, 9876 means kips, then you can do things like:

  wt_kips := convert_units (1234, 9876, wt_kilograms);
  

  or

  INSERT INTO tmp_table ( ..., weight_val,                               ...)
         VALUES           ( ..., convert_units (1234, 9876, wt_kilograms), ...);
  

  I can't just look at the code which could be any valid ID. I'm not even sure of the order of the arguments. I hope you have instructions on how to use the function.

  If the function is in a package named pk_xyz (a different package to the one in which you call it), add the name of the package, like this

  wt_kips := pk_xyz.convert_units (1234, 9876, wt_kilograms);

• How to use the functions of SetValue executeScript activity.

  Hello

  Could someone let me know how to use the function activity setValue (serialize concate, count etc) in activity executeScript. What all liberaries I need to import to executeScript. I want to perform the same task in executeScript performed in the setValue activity.

  Concerning

  Sunil Gupta

  Forgive me if I seem obtuse, but why would you use XPath functions (is that serialize, concat, and count) when there are perfectly good Java alternatives that will be much easier to use.  Java is, after all, the language used in the executeScript.  Serialize is just toString(), CONCATENATE is just + or. concat() (I assume that you are running on Java 6 web application server).  The count function is just the length() or size() methods or to the tables, the length property.  If you really need to reorganize in a variable of the XML data using a XSL stylesheet - you have access to all the functions in XPath 1.0 and XPath 1.0 power and you do not need to tinker with the headache of trying to debug Java in an environment (Workbench), which does not give you the tools that you would normally , as a contextual Editor.

• call a function in a where clause of a select statement clause

  Hello
  
  is it possible to call a function in a where clause of a select statement clause?
  
  ex: select col1, col2
  from my_table
  where my_package.my_function (32199, 2008, col3, 'P');
  
  and I have the error message ' ORA-00920: invalid relational operator.

  @+ Rosagio

  Yes, it is possible.

  But you have no relational operator:

  where my_package.my_function (32199, 2008, col3, 'P') =?
  where my_package.my_function (32199, 2008, col3, 'P') >?
  where my_package.my_function (32199, 2008, col3, 'P')<>

  Oops, I just noticed that your function returns a Boolean value.

  Can't do that as in a SQL statement.

  Boolean is known only to other code PL/SQL, no SQL statements.

  Published by: cool gayatri on June 24, 2009 08:32

  Hi Gayatri

  Did you not see my answer for the CASE because the CASE offer the use of the clause BETWEEN, but DECODE indeed does not work. Let me give you a quick summary of DECODE.

  In its simplest form, it takes 4 values and looks like this: DECODE (A, B, C, D)

  This basically means, IF A = B THEN C D OTHER

  The trick to solve ENTERS a DECODING is to work on algoriths where A = B. Because we do not know how values are from 00 to 99, although I could tell there were 100 we would of course 100 pieces in DECODING, but that would be awful. How about if we look at it another way and say this:

  IF PART_NUMBER< 'sdk00'="" then="">
  ELSE IF PART_NUMBER > 'SDK99' DO pay_AMOUNT
  ANOTHER pay_amount + 100

  This statement was only 2 hard coded values, but how do you DECODE work with less of? Easy, we use the function LESS. The LEAST function takes 2 values and returns the one with the lowest value. So I use LESS (PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00'), then whenever the PART_NUMBER is lower than SDK00 it will be true. A similar situation exists for the inverse function more GRAND. Put it all together, then you can do this:

  DECODE (PART_NUMBER, BIGGER (PART_NUMBER, 'SDK00'), DECODE (PART_NUMBER, LESS (PART_NUMBER, 'SDK99'), PAY_AMOUNT * 100, PAY_AMOUNT), PAY_AMOUNT)

  In English it can be read as follows:

  IF the PART_NUMBER is greater than or equal to SDK00 and the PART_NUMBER is less than or equal to SDK99 THEN PAY_AMOUNT x 100 ELSE 0

• How to use the functionality of search in Spotlight

  I was check preferences, Spotlight and noted down at the bottom of the window there is a box marked 'allow Spotlight Suggestions in Spotlight and look it up".

  I was curious about the 'Look up' and how it worked but after Googling it I couldn't find any reference to it or how to use it.

  I wonder if someone could enlighten me on what it does and how I use it.

  Thank you

  'Search' is not a feature turned on. If you have this box checked, then it is already working.

  The difference between the projectors now and Spotlight before "Look up", it's that Spotlight will now search the Internet for items that you put in the Spotlight. Previously, Spotlight search only files of your computer. Now (with the upward gaze) research in Spotlight is similar to an iOS devices. If she can not find what you are looking for on your computer, it will search the internet. For example, if I type in warriors, it returns this information:

  

  Hope that makes sense

  EDIT: Note that research first of all my events (since I'm a Kings fan, it shows their game against the warriors), and he then proceeds to the internet looking for other options, as well as iTunes for the film the warriors.

• How to pass a value LOV to where clause of another LOV

• How to set SQL that contains 'in' where clause in VO?

  I don't want to set "in" would adopt a kind of programatical in VO as below. I want to use a method declariable to set in the clause using bindings varaible.

  It can be implemented?

      private String getInClauseWithParamNames(List termCodes) {
             //logic to form the in clause with multiple bind variables
             StringBuffer inClause = new StringBuffer(); 
             if(termCodes !=null){
                 for (int i = 1; i < termCodes.size() + 1; i++) { 
                     inClause.append(":termC" + (i));
                     if (i < termCodes.size()) { 
                        inClause.append(","); 
                     } 
                 }
             }
             return inClause.toString();
      }
          
      public Row[] getYardFixedSlots(List termCodes) {
          if(termCodes != null && !termCodes.isEmpty()){
              String inClause = getInClauseWithParamNames(termCodes);
              //setting the where cluase to use the generated in clause
              this.setWhereClause("YardFixedSlot.TERMINAL_C in (" + inClause + ")");
              ////clearing all existing where clause params if any 
              this.setWhereClauseParams(null);
              if(getVariableManager() !=null){
                 this.getVariableManager().clearVariables();
              }
              //setting values for all bind variables one by one in the in clause
              for (int i = 0; i < termCodes.size(); i++) { 
                  //defining the named bind variables programatically 
                  this.defineNamedWhereClauseParam("termC" + (i + 1), null, null);
                  //setting the value for each named bind variable 
                  this.setNamedWhereClauseParam("termC" + (i + 1), termCodes.get(i)); 
              }
              this.setRangeSize(-1); 
              //executing the query 
              this.executeQuery(); 
          }
          //returning the rows from query result 
          return this.getAllRowsInRange(); 
      }
  

  You can only use the link as a parameter to the in clause. You must divide the string inside the binding variable. Sample can be found at decompilation binary ADF: using bind variable for SQL statements with the paragraph

• How can I extract a substring in WHERE Clause &lt; CFQUERY &gt;?

  Is it possible to extract a substring in the WHERE clause of either < CFQUERY > or in a query of queries?  I try to use the following query to find all e-mail addresses with the domain "comcast.net" (i.e., everything that follows the '@' in the email address).  I ask an MS-Access database table.

  < cfquery name='test' datasource='membership'>
  SELECT Email_address
  OF tblMembers
  WHERE the MID (email_address, INSTR (email_address, ' @') + 1) = "comcast.net"
  < / cfquery >

  
  

  If I try this as a query, I get the error message "[Macromedia] [SequeLink JDBC Driver] [ODBC Socket] [Microsoft] [ODBC Microsoft Access driver] data type incompatible in criteria expression."

  
  

  If I try it as a t/t, I get the error message " " Met 'MID (e-mail1.,. Incorrect conditional expression, waiting for one of [as | null | between | in | comparison] condition,'.

  I would be very grateful for any help on finding something that works!  Thanks for your help!

  
  

  You couldn't do a LIKE in where clause instead:

  SELECT Email_address

  OF tblMembers

  WHERE email_address LIKE ' %@comcast.net'

  You should get the addresses you're looking for.

• Using the Case statement in Where clause with operator

  Hi all
  
  I'm doing the following work (this is just a simple version of what I'll eventually need):
  
  Sorry, I forgot how to use the code tags...
  
  and li. MAJOR_ACCT in case

  end
  
  
  Problem is that I get a missing closing parenthesis error.
  
  Wouldn't - that evaluate against a value(as below) it works fine:
  
  and li. MAJOR_ACCT in case
  When: prompt = 'Energy' then ('9320906')
  end
  
  
  Any thoughts? Is it possible to use a box (or decode) in an In clause with multiple values? I tried to use decode as well and get the same results.
  
  Thank you.

  What:

  and ( case

• No output for report of XML editor using CASE/DECODE in a Where Clause

  Hello
  
  I have a requirement of the company to modify an existing report that has two input parameters,
  -> p_statcode (closed status) which may have values "Y" or "n".
  -> p_overdue (flag late), which can have values of "Y" or "n".
  
  The flag late is a column evaluated with O/N values and it is evaluated as follows,
  

  ONTF_MOD_VAL(NVL (
                                       (TRUNC (SYSDATE)
                                        - (TO_DATE (oe_order_lines.attribute18,
                                                    'DD-MON-RRRR')
                                           + TO_NUMBER (fnd_lookup_values.meaning))),
                                       0
                                    ))
                          overdue_flag

  The requirement of user now is that they must be a third option for setting called p_overdue ALL,
  which by the way the output should include records with
  p_statcode is p_statcode ELSE is N AND Y OR p_overdue p_overdue is N
  
  In other words records with raising the Y and N for flag late must be returned regardless of the value given to the closed state.
  
  Original where clause contained in the data definition file is as follows,

  WHERE Closed_Status = nvl(:p_statcode,Closed_Status)
                     AND overdue_flag = nvl(:p_overdue,overdue_flag)

  My modified code is the following,

  WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
           AND overdue_flag = (CASE
           WHEN :p_overdue = 'Y' THEN 'Y'
           WHEN :p_overdue = 'N' THEN 'N'
           ELSE overdue_flag
           END)

  OR

  WHERE   Closed_Status = NVL (:p_statcode, Closed_Status)
           AND overdue_flag = DECODE (:p_overdue, 'Y', 'Y', 'N', 'N',overdue_flag)

  Both approaches have the same problem.
  The output is in EXCEL format. The modified query works very well for p_overdue as Y or N but when p_overdue is passed as ALL he returned a blank EXCEL sheet with just exit report column headings.
  Any help regarding, why is this the case? What's not in my approach?
  
  Kind regards
  Vishal
