Select * from tbl where product like ('abc', 'def', 'russo');

Hi guys,.

My requirement is I need to filter by providing a few details porduct date value and prod_id may vary with product as

prod_id product date

01 abc 01/2012
ABC 02 02/2012
Def 03 03/2012

How can we put several conditions in text using LIKE operator in the where clause of the sql query.

The union allows us to combine all sql queries, how can we filter by entering the date value.

SQL > select * from tbl where product like ('abc', 'def', 'russo');

Please provide any ideas on the same.

Thanks in advance!
-LK

Select * from tab1 where regexp_like(product,'^abc|def|rgh');

How to create a report based on the item selected from the list of selection?

Hello
I created a tables_LOV based on:
Select table_name table_name user_tab_cols r, d
where column_name like '% _type % '.
Then I created a ListOfTables page element, display in a selection list and pointing to tables_LOV.
I run the page, and I can choose the table I want in the drop-down list.
How to create a report based on the selected element? (ex: select * from selected_table)
Thanks in advance

Hi Salah,

Allright, take a look at this page: http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=vincentdeelen:collection_report

I think that simulates what you are trying to accomplish. I've implemented the simplest method I could think of.

The report is based on a collection of apex. If you are not familiar with this, you should study the documentation: APEX_COLLECTION

To recreate my example, you should:

(1) create a report (interactive) on your collection
```
SELECT *
   FROM APEX_collections
 WHERE collection_name = 'MY_COLLECTION'
```
(2) create a selection list page_item for the tables that you want to display (in my case, this is called "P38_TABLES")

(3) create a dynamic action that triggers on the evolution of your selection list page_item. Dynamic action must be a parade of PL/SQL procedure the following code:
```
declare
  l_query varchar2(4000);
begin
  l_query := 'select * from '||:P38_TABLES;
  if apex_collection.collection_exists
        ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' )
  then
    apex_collection.delete_collection
      ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION' );
  end if;

  apex_collection.create_collection_from_query
    ( p_collection_name => 'MY_COLLECTION'
    , p_query           => l_query
    );
end;
```
Make sure that you add your page_item 'Page to send items' section.

(4) add a real extra action that makes an update of the report area.

Here are two photos describing the da:

SELECT in the where clause clause

Hello

[Oracle 11g]

I've created a workflow in which the user can choose some variables for a report. Say (EMP-TABLE) as a first step the user must choose the Department. His selection is stored in another table called selection.

If the user selects all departments the Department of the column to the table of selection must contain "ALL". It is dynamic, because maybe some departments are added.

In my last step, the user must run a query against the emp table with the selction-table variables.

SELECT *

FROM emp

WHERE deptno IN

(Select 
CASE WHEN deptno like 'ALL' then 
Select .........  from selection where ID like :P13_ID)

This one works if there is only a single deptnumber stored in the table:

SELECT *

FROM emp

WHERE depto IN

(Select deptno from selection where ID like :P13_ID)

ID is a sequence to define unique lines.

So I need to know how to make the statement box:

If deptno table as 'ALL' selection and select deptno all of the emp table.

Decode them could be the solution too?

Hope you can help.

Select only records where the column values are not all equal to zero
Hi everyone, it seems so easy, but it has left me speechless on the research in a way that is clean, easy to achieve. I know when someone replies, I'm going to kick me. So, let's assume this is what I have:
```
with mytable as (
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'JAN' as monthname, 0 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'FEB' as monthname, 1 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'MAR' as monthname, 5 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'APR' as monthname, 1 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'MAY' as monthname, 4 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'JUL' as monthname, 0 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'AUG' as monthname, 0 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'SEP' as monthname, 1 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'OCT' as monthname, 7 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'NOV' as monthname, 1 as theval from dual union all
select 'Type 1' as itemtype, 'DEC' as monthname, 2 as theval from dual union all

  sum (case monthname when 'DEC' then theval else 0 end) as DEC
from mytable
group by itemtype
order by itemtype
```
I need an external application around it or something which will select only 'Type 1'... that is, if all months are each equal to zero, do not include the record in the result set.

In summary to get a total of zero is not an option, because I could have-15 and + 15 in different columns, in which case, the recording should be displayed.

Something as simple as... 'not the case (oct = 0 and 0 nov and dec = 0...) at the end is all it seems to me necessary. I thought to add a case for each column clause, but that seems not very effective. Ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Edit... I know not what follows will work using the MINUS operator, but my actual query is really huge, and I don't want to have to write it twice...

apr = 0 and may = 0 and = 0 jun and Jul = 0 and aug = 0 and Ms = 0
)
order of itemtype
{code}

Change again... OK, I guess that I am answering my own question here, but I think that by using a WITH to write the main request once clause and then selecting * twice using the MINUS operator between where the second query is where (oct = 0, etc.) is what I need. If anyone has better suggestions, please let me know! Here's the logic of nickname for what I come up with to date...

{code}
WITH mainquery as (select all)
Select * from mainquery
less
Select * from mainquery where (oct = 0, nov = 0, etc...)
{code}

Thanks again!

Hello

You can do it with a HAVING clause:
```
select
  itemtype,
  sum (case monthname when 'JAN' then theval else 0 end) as JAN,
  sum (case monthname when 'FEB' then theval else 0 end) as FEB,
  sum (case monthname when 'MAR' then theval else 0 end) as MAR,
  sum (case monthname when 'APR' then theval else 0 end) as APR,
  sum (case monthname when 'MAY' then theval else 0 end) as MAY,
  sum (case monthname when 'JUN' then theval else 0 end) as JUN,
  sum (case monthname when 'JUL' then theval else 0 end) as JUL,
  sum (case monthname when 'AUG' then theval else 0 end) as AUG,
  sum (case monthname when 'SEP' then theval else 0 end) as SEP,
  sum (case monthname when 'OCT' then theval else 0 end) as OCT,
  sum (case monthname when 'NOV' then theval else 0 end) as NOV,
  sum (case monthname when 'DEC' then theval else 0 end) as DEC
from mytable
group by itemtype
HAVING      MIN (theval)     != 0
OR      MAX (theval)     != 0
order by itemtype
;
```
If the values are all 0, then the MIN and MAX will be 0.
If the MIN or MAX is not 0, the values are all 0.

This assumes that the combination (itemtype, monthname) is unique, because it is in your sample data.
If this is not the case, start with a subquery that GROUPs BY itemtype, monthname, so that when you get to the main request, this combination will be unique.

How to get data in the procedure after CREATE TABLE table1 AS SELECT * from table2

Hello
can any body tell me how to get the data in the new table created in the procedure. because it gives following error.
- Error (47,21): PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
tableName: = "BCKUP_" | TO_CHAR (sysdate, 'ddmmrrrr');
tableDDL: = 'CREATE TABLE' | tableName. "AS SELECT * FROM Table1 where to_char(MSG_IN_TIME,''dd-mon-rrrr'') < sysdate - ' | daysNumber;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE backUpDDL;
COMMIT;
DELETE FROM Table1;
How to select the data in the newly created table. as...
Select * from ". tableName;

Do not choose anything to get the number...

Just after backupDDL EXECUTE IMMEDIATE, simply refers to SQL % ROWCOUNT - who will be the number of lines.

Oh and DDL engages automatically, your commitment is redundant.

Insert into select * from table 3. -is on the agenda by the needless?
I've got an example of script, it will work for any table, so I don't bother with the full ddl.

create table test in select * from hotels where 1 = 2;

Insert into test select * from Hotels by city;

Select the city from the trial;

-drop table test is serving;

The amazing thing is, that the city is ordered alphabetically,
but you would say it is that an operation order is irrelevant.

Any ideas on that?

This will still work?

Query to select higher values, where LIKE clause is used

Oracle 10g

Ask for your help in the drafting of the request correctly.

I have 2 tables. The tables AddProjectPhase and AddProject. That's a lot to-several. Each project can have a predefined set of 4 different phases under him. Each phase has a start date and an end date. I am writing a report for the phases that have lasting more than in, for example, 3 months.

The following query works well for just a list of all the phases and the length of each phase. I am not able to change to select the phases that have a duration, for example, 3 months or more.

MySQL query - only select a field WHERE it is SEPARATE

Is there a way of msql to select ALL where somehing is SEPARATE
At the moment I have:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM Products WHERE product_month = '$product_month' ORDER BY product_depart_date";
What I need is:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM Products WHERE product_month = '$product_month' AND 'product_depart_date' IS SEPARATE ORDER BY product_depart_date";
I can't have her down as I need to get the product_id BUT only where product_departure date is SEPARATE
$sql = "SELECT DISTINCT product_departure_date FROM Products WHERE product_month = '$product_month' ORDER BY product_depart_date";
See you soon
Operating system

GROUP BY is similar to separate:

SELECT * from products WHERE product_month = '$product_month' GROUP BY product_depart_date ORDER BY product_depart_date

Select a view where CLOB is converted into VARCHAR2s of evil

So I create a view of a CLOB table such as:

When I do a select right I see data no problem, but when I try to query against it more selectively:
Select count ("NUMBER") in the ACTIVITY_TXT where description_txt like 'of NONE. "
I constantly receive:
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at line 1
06502 00000 - "PL/SQL: digital error or the value of %s.
* Cause:
* Action:
I don't know what means this error and why I receive.

You use multibyte characters? Maximum string length in SQL is 4000 BYTES but your DBMS_LOB. SUBSTR asked 4000 CHARACTERS - a single two-byte character would be the malfunction of the query.

I suggest first to try with dbms_lob.substr(description,2000,1) and then looking for lines where the

LENGTHB (dbms_lob.substr(description, 2000, 1)) > 2000 or LENGTHB (dbms_lob.substr(description, 2000, 2001)) > 2000

I hope this helps.

What is to "select * from a subquery?
Hello

I'm a DBA and so I must first humble myself to all developers in this forum because my SQL skills aren't up to par with the rest of you.
That said, let me explain that we have a demand (remedy) where the seller has almost exclusively used inline views as follows.
I do not understand the purpose or reasoning behind it and I was wondering if someone could help me understand it better.
Unforutnately, overlooking the line, Oracle sql Profiler will not work on them and I can't create profiles for them, nor can I use OEM SQL Advisor to give me advice thereon.
(not that it matter anyway because we cannot change their code - but if the Profiler might work, at least I could create profiles for them).

There are a variety of reasons why you might want to select * form a subquery. In the particular case, you've published, they do to enable then to do a top request N.

The subquery sorts the output by C536871418 DESC, DESC C3, 1 CAD. The outer query then selects the 101 all first lines in the sorted output. If he did not like that (in other words, the place where rownum)<= 101="" predicate="" was="" applied="" against="" the="" main="" query)="" then="" oracle="" would="" have="" selected="" the="" first="" 101="" rows="" it="" came="" across="" and="" then="" sorted="" them="" (rownum="" is="" always="" applied="" before="">

Although there are other ways to do this particular request for top N queries in general you should always a sorted subquery to determine which are the lines of 'top '.

Not the rows returned by the spatial query wrapped in SELECT * FROM...

Hello

When you run a query with SDO_EQUAL sub, I get a very strange behavior. The SDO_EQUAL query on its own works very well, but if I wrap in SELECT * from there, I get no results. If I wrap SDO_ANYINTERACT in SELECT * from there, I get the expected result.

It seems like the spatial index is used during the execution of the ordinary, but not when SDO_EQUAL request wrapped in SELECT * FROM. Weird. The spatial index is also not used when SDO_ANYINTERACT is wrapped in SELECT * FROM... so I don't know why that returns the correct answer.

I get this problem on 11.2.0.2 on Red Hat Linux 64-bit and 11.2.0.1 on Windows XP 32-bit (i.e., all versions of 11g I've tried). The query works as expected on 10.2.0.5 on Windows Server 2003 64-bit.

Any ideas?

Problem with "select * from table" for dynamic IN the list

I have a 'for loop' based a query that does not work. The query is supposed to return the name of the table, the data type and the name of the column in the columns poses a number of name filters. The problem I have is when I run the query into a TOAD with:

schema_list value SCOTT, MED and the clause of 'in' as ' to (select * from table (DATAPUMP_UTIL.in_list_varchar2 (:schema_list))))»

The query returns the expected lines.

When I have it in my code as shown below it returns no rows. I don't know what hurts me, but any help would be great! I'm on Oracle 11.1.0.6.0.

Hello

If you have a query that works well when you launch it directly, and that breaks down when you start with a procedure, this can be a problem of privileges.

Points of view ALL_ * shows only the objects you have access, but using a procedure, privileges must be granted directly to the user and not with a role.

You should check the SELECT privileges to your user through roles and give them directly to the user.

Hope this will help.

SELECT from Bulk INSERT - Performance Clarification
I have 2 tables-emp_new & emp_old. I need to load all the data from emp_old to emp_new. Is there a transaction_id column in emp_new whose value should be extracted from a main_transaction table that includes a column of region Code. Something like -

TRANSACTION_ID REGION_CODE
------------------------- ------------
100. WE
AMER 101
APAC 102

My bulk insert query looks like this-

INSERT INTO emp_new
(col1,
col2,
...,
...,
...,
transaction_id)
SELECT
col1,
col2,
...,
...,
...,
* (Select transaction_id from main_transaction WHERE region_code = 'US') *.
Of emp_old

There are millions of rows that need to be loaded this way. I would like to know if the Subselection to fetch the transaction_id would be re-executed for each line, which would be very expensive and I'm actually looking for a way to avoid this. The main_transcation table is pre-loaded and its values will not change. Is there a way (via some SUSPICION) to indicate that the subselect should not re-run for each line?

On a different note, the implementation plan of the whole above INSERT looks like-

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| ID | Operation | Name | Lines | Bytes | Cost (% CPU).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| 0 | INSERT STATEMENT. 11 M | 54 M | 6124 (4) |
| 1. FULL RESTRICTED INDEX SCAN FAST | EMPO_IE2_IDX | 11 M | 54 M | 6124 (4) |
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
EMPO_IE2_IDX-> Index on emp_old

I'm surprised to see that the main_transaction of the table is not in the execution plan at all. Does this mean that the subselect is not executed for each line? However, at least for the first reading, I suppose that the table must appear in the plan.

Can someone help me understand this?
Why the explain command plan includes no information about the table of main_transaction
Can someone please clarify?

As I said originally (and repeated in a later post) - probably because PLAN_TABLE is an older version.
More recent versions of PLAN_TABLE are required to correctly report "most recent" functions implementation plans.

Select * from tbl where product like ('abc', 'def', 'russo');
