• Nested to decode

  Hi All-
  I have a requirement where I need to convert a nested in a case statement decode statement here's the scenario
  
  
  CASE WHEN CD_FAM_01 = "Y" THEN ' N
  WHEN CD_FAM_02 = 'Y', AND THEN 'Y '.
  WHEN CD_FAM_03 = 'Y', AND THEN 'Y '.
  WHEN CD_FAM_04 = 'Y', AND THEN 'Y '.
  WHEN CD_FAM_05 = 'Y', AND THEN 'Y '.
  WHEN CD_FAM_01 IS SET TO NULL, AND CD_FAM_02 IS SET TO NULL AND CD_FAM_03 IS SET TO NULL AND CD_FAM_04 IS SET TO NULL AND CD_FAM_05 IS NULL THEN 'N.'
  WHEN CD_FAM_01 = ' no AND CD_FAM_02 = ' no AND CD_FAM_03 = 'N AND CD_FAM_04 =' N AND CD_FAM_05 = 'No THEN' don't END
  
  I am facing a moment torrid in the conversion of this instruction can help me here

  Sounds good? Furthermore, why are you doing this? The case statement is surely preferable.

• DECODE statement and the argument limits

  No one knows the number of arguments that the DECODE statement allows you to enter. I currently have 863 and it gives me an error message when I try to run the query.
  
  Database - ORA-00939 error: too many arguments for the function.
  
  Thank you
  Chris

  Hello

  You still have too many parameters your decodes, the limit is 250 so you can enter only 124 values and decoded. I would like to nest decodes by doing:

  DECODE (point, "c1", "v1", "c2", "v2", "c3", "v3",..., DECODE (point, 'c4', 'v4', 'c5', 'v5', 'c6', 'v6',..., DECODE (...)))

  Alternatively, you can for example use case

  WHEN BOX point IN ( END)

• Problem with Decode statement

  Hello
  
  I try to do the following in my report:
  
  If an employee is a family name. (dot) or a name of. (dot), the report does not display a point. An employee name consists of the family name, first name and middle name, which should all be concatenated sets. An attempt to achieve this goal, I have the following statement in my report:
  
  Decode (e.Surname, '.', (LTRIM (RTRIM ((INITCAP (e.FIRST_NAME))) |))) » '|| INITCAP (e.MIDDLE_NAME))),
  e.FIRST_NAME, '.', (LTRIM (RTRIM ((INITCAP (e.Surname))) |)) » '|| INITCAP (e.MIDDLE_NAME))),
  (LTRIM (RTRIM ((INITCAP (e.SURNAME))) | ',' |)) INITCAP (e.first_name) | » '|| INITCAP (e.MIDDLE_NAME))) as emp_name
  
  E employee
  
  Problem: The above statement only works for employees with the name of. (dot). It doesn't for the first names of dot. How to use the decode statement OR is there another way to do it without using the CASE statement?
  
  It seems my decode statement does not work with 2 different fields (name, first name) tested within the decode statement. Thank you.

  LTRIM and RTRIM the comma too:

  select rtrim(ltrim(rtrim(ltrim(', Somename ,',','),','))) Name
  from dual;
  
  NAME
  --------
  Somename
  

• Calculation grouping using decode statement?

  I have 4 sales reps who are numbered 9801, 9802, 9803 VRP, 9804.
  
  I have 3 support staff that support accounts by virtue of these representatives of REPS 1, 2, 3
  
  Support rep 1 will support the commercial attaché 9801 & 9802
  Support rep 2 will support the commercial attaché 9802 and 9803
  Support rep 3 will support the commercial attaché 9803 & 9804.
  
  Initially, I had a report which gave the results for all listed sales reps. The representatives of support and then imported it into excel and delete the records of the sales reps that they do not need.
  
  I want to create a page filter that will support rep select its name in a drop-down which shows only sales reps they support. So support rep 1 can select their name from the drop down and the report would only show information for the commercial attaché 9801 & 9802.
  
  I tried to do this with a calculation using the decode statement, but it does not work. It seems only to associate support rep to each sales representative. Is there a way to accomplish the grouping I want?
  
  DECODE (put into commercial service Rep.Sales,
  9801,'REP ' 1,.
  9802,'REP ' 1,.
  9802, ' REP 2',
  9803, ' REP 2',
  9803, ' REP 3',
  9803, ' REP 4'.
  9804, ' REP 4'.
  "ERROR")

  Hello

  I don't think you can do it easily if you want to use a filter on the page. This is because if a row is returned by the database that has a sales of 9802, then, the line must be on 2 pages.

  You can create a parameter to select the support rep and use this setting to select the records. Therefore, if the parameter is p_support_rep then you have a condition like:

  (: p_support_rep = 'REP1' AND sales_rep IN (9801, 9802)) OR
  (: p_support_rep = "REP2' AND sales_rep IN (9802, 9803)) OR
  (: p_support_rep = "REP2' AND sales_rep IN (9803, 9804))

  If you really need to use a filter on the page, then you will need to use a generator of line to create a line for each support rep and to join your generator line report by using a report similar to the one above. You can search for "Generator line" of this forum, or check out the learndiscoverer blog (http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2008/10/row-generators.html) for more details.

• Need help in writing the SQL CASE or DECODE statement

  Hi experts,
  
  I need to write a SQL select order_num, cntry_cde, prod_id and Qty by joining order_num on PROD_ORDER and PROD_ORDER_TXT.
  
  Here is my sample data
  
  PROD ORDER_
  order_num Prod_id Qty cntry_cde
  100 US A1 5
  101 US 10 A2
  102 IN A3 4
  103 TO THE A4 9

  PROD ORDER_TXT_
  cntry_cde Prod_id order_num
  100 US A1
  101 US A2
  102 NZ A3
  103 TO THE A4
  A5 104
  
  Here's the requirement,
  
  (1) if the cntry_cde in PROD_ORDER is the same as cntry_cde in PROD_ORDER_TXT then select PROD_ORDER.cntry_cde (orders 100, 101, 103)
  (2) if they are different, choose PROD_ORDER_TXT (order 102, to THE NZ <>) country code
  (3) if they are different and PROD_ORDER_TXT.cntry_cde is null, I can't use it like cntry_cde in my report (order 104). It happenend just because of bad data to the source.
  I can't avoid it. Then just use the cntry_cde of PROD_ORDER
  
  Expected results
  100 US A1 5
  101 US 10 A2
  102 NZ A3 4 - changed in NZ
  103 TO THE A4 9
  104. IN A5 3 - IN retained as PROD_ORDER_TXT.cntry_cde is null
  
  
  instructions for creation and insertion of sample table are lower than
  
  create the table prod_order
  (number of order_num,
  cntry_cde CHAR (2),
  prod_id VARCHAR2 (6).
  number of quantity)
  
  create the table prod_order_txt

• Help to DECODE statement

  Hi all
  
  I have data like this YEAR, to 2 columns ITEM_ID
  
  A 001
  B 002
  C 003
  A 006
  Z 010
  
  I want to interview based on criteria of the user of what rank they needed. for some reason I need if users choose Z as a criterion, I need a list of all elements with the class A.
  
  SELECT * FROM my_tbl WHERE to rank = DECODE (: userprompt, 'A', 'A', 'B', 'B'...') Z', ??) ;
  
  ?? -im missing how to set the condition, I tried with "* has" but nothing bowed not, obviously, it ranks = ' * Z' and do not return all rows.
  
  Oracle 10 G.
  PLS NOTE * = not equal symbol, for some reason, it does not appear when I post the thread.,.
  
  Thanks in advance.

  This should do the trick:

  where grade = decode(:userprompt,'Z',translate(grade,'A','x'),:userprompt)

• using nest if then statements using ABM

  I have a two input, 1 output circuit, as in the attached schema. My third node is set down by the very high resistance voltmeter. What I have is a user defined current source ABM that depends on other parameters in the circuit. I wonder it is what my conditional statement is entered in the right format? Conditions are particularly complex and describe as follows:

  If the voltage difference between V2 and U1 is greater than 0, then the current in the ABM = 10 ^-12

  If this voltage difference that the above is not greater than zero and if (V (1) u (1))<(V(2)-U(1)), then="" the="" abm="" current="" is="">

  Otherwise, if (V (1) u (1)) > = (V (2) u (1)) then the current is (0.1*((-(V(2)-U(1)))^0.35))*0.00001596*(((V(2)-U(1))^2)/2)

  As you can see, they are very complex conditions and my concern is that I can't just type in U1 and get the compiler to understand I want the voltage read on the voltmeter of bottom-node. I think I'm using the correct nesting in the encoding format is: if (T, X, (if(Q,R,S))).

  Any help would be appreciated, and details can be provided.

  I don't know why its not throwing an error for the use of u (1), maybe it's a valid keyword.

  If you want to reference a voltage properly, it should be V (net_name) for single ended voltages (referenced to ground) or V (net1, net2) for differential voltages... For models ABM I suggest turning on net visibility throughout the schematic so that you know the net name to the positive terminal of U1 or anywhere else for that matter.

  I think the syntax you have to if/then/else is correct otherwise.

  Kind regards

• Helps the state machine

  Hello everyine,.

  I'm working on a state machine. I saw a few videos of the same thing and I need help.

  I have attached the code below.

  My problem is that I can not jump since the first case at the last.

  After the execution of the first case I want LabVIEW to check fot the Boolean control attached to the function select. I used an operator oux during the operation. If the condition of "TERMINATE" is satisfied that I want him to be the last case of local variable is used to turn off the START light.

  at the moment I can't go to the latter case. I want the code to keep control of the State, and whenever the user presses the button END the LED should turn off little matter the time of execution.

  PL suggest ways to accomplish a task... am still a beginner

  Concerning

  Jalashwa

  Hi Sindhurakshak,

  You are welcome. I think that the problem still resides on the Structure of the event to the State "WBS". I can suggest the following (say that everything always ends by WBS what I understand of your current code):

  Remove select it and create a new case event for Boolean switch «end». Location of the enum to cancel in this case, as shown below:
  
  The above change means that if the value of "end" Boolean switch is changed (assuming that this will change to true), the case of the event will be held event 'end', which will then the enum value 'End' to the transition of change. Let's say that if the Boolean key 'end' has not changed (which means that has not been pressed), it should run the rest as shown below:
  

  

  

  I'll leave the enum value 'WBS' in the time-out period, assuming you want the State to always run the "WBS" idle state, unless you press the key 'end' to trigger the transition "Terminate".

  It may be useful

  Hello

  I have a table called t_criteria of columns 'criterion_1', 'criterion_2' and criterion_3' with line for each column being either 'Yes', 'No' or 'not known '. (See the DOF below)
  
  What I want is a statement that will give the number of criteria which have been fulfilled (i.e. the line 'Yes') in a list separated by commas in a column called 'criteria_met '.

  I know how to do this in excel but do not know how I would go about it in oracle?

  It is a way to do this in excel:

  "= SUBSTITUTE (TRIM (IF(B2="Yes",1,)" ") &" "& IF(C2="Yes",2,)" "") &"" & IF(D2="yes",3,) "" ")),""," ")"

  When column B is criterion_1, column C is criterion_2 and column D is criterion_3.

  I use the database 11g r2

  
  

  create the table t_criteria

  (the number (2) of site_id not null,)

  criterion_1 varchar2 (25).

  criterion_2 varchar2 (25).

  criterion_3 varchar2 (25).

  key primary constraint site_id_pk (site_id)

  );

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

  insert into t_criteria values (1, 'Yes', 'No', ' yes');

  insert into t_criteria values (2, 'Yes', 'No', "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (3, 'Yes', 'No', ' yes');

  insert into t_criteria values (4, 'No', 'Yes', ' don't know');

  insert into t_criteria values (5, 'No', "Don't know", "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (6, 'No', 'No', ' yes');

  insert into t_criteria values (7, 'No', "Don't know", "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (8, 'Yes', 'No', "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (9, 'Yes', 'No', "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (10, 'Yes', 'No', "Ignore");

  insert into t_criteria values (11, 'No', 'No', "ignore");

  Hello

  Please try below script

  SELECT REPLACE (TRIM(' ')

  OF DECODE(criterion_1,'Yes',1,'')

  ||' '

  || Decode(criterion_2,'Yes',1,'')

  ||' '

  || (Decode(criterion_2,'Yes',1,'')), "","")

  OF t_criteria;

  Hi Bala,

  If I interpreted the statement correctly, then you are wanting fill the digits left of the decimal point to four characters, so 12.345 becomes 0012.345.

  The best way to achieve this is by using a processor of Expression (see the online help for details of full syntax). Assuming that the input attribute is called 'col1' then the following expression should lead to the desired result:

  substr ('000' | col1, indexof (col1, ".") - 1).

  Kind regards

• Help with State Machine user Sequentail events

  I'm trying to create a program using the state machine which include events genreated user to jump between States. Also, I want the program to require a sequence of events to be genreted before entering in some States.

  For example:

  States: Init, idle, a-1, A-2, A-3, B - 1 and stop

  If a-1 State is selected, the user must enter the setting and select the condition A-2.
  The user cannot directly jump without having to access the mode a-1 to A - 2
  If the user selects the a-1 State, he should have the possibility of not input parameter and jump to another State as B-1 or Stop

  State A-3 can be entered automatically by State A-2.

  How to program the machine in order to do what I want? I've updated a sampling program. I'm not sure if I impleted the program properly. The user Panel hangs if I enter State a-1, and then press the Stop button. It does not allow me to leave the a-1 State and forces me to go to State A-2.

  A few other questions:

  -How to initialize all values of boleean to 0 during my Init State?

  -Why is a timeout value?

  Hey there, I developed example of Jacobson on a bit here to illustrate the case "Idle, how far to walk, ' your state machine diagram.

  Some keys on the front panel when you are in the bad condition will do nothing, as you can see, because I only check for buttons, I would like to respond to each State. For example, by pressing "Start on" the State of market won't do anything because this isn't a valid button, but pressing "Quit" will bring you to Idle. To implement the rest of the state machine, it is up to you!

• Need help nav State active started working on the Web site pages 1 vertical slide...

  Hi guys!

  I created a Web site vertical slide you can see here...

  When you click a navigation button, when it takes you to the relevant slide, the active State should move the Home button to the relevant slide. It works fine without the 3 links on the end to external pages but it is only when these additional links are that something seems to get confused...

  Anyone know how I can get the States of nav working for the slide of the site section?

  Thank you very much and I hope to hear from you.

  SM

  Try this:

  . NAV-collapse: hover,.

  . NAV-collapse: active,.

  . NAV-collapse: focus {}

  background: #e8e8e8;

• BOX WHEN in DECODE statement

  Could you kindly guide as to how to use DECODE and get the desired result.
  
  
  Thank you

  You can, like this.
  However, the CASE seems much clearer for me so why bother with a DECODING?
