• Convert a single column into multiple lines

  Hi people,
  
  I have a task to display a single column into multiple lines (for use in LOV)
  
  For Ex:
  
  The column consistes of value such as 98,78,67,68,34,90. -It's a unique column values where none of the values can be ' number that is separated by commas
  
  Then we must view it as
  
  98
  78
  67
  68
  34
  90
  -under the number of lines (no lines can be ' do not number).
  
  Thanks in advance

  Try this...

  SQL> ed

• 1 line into several lines

  I have a table time_entries

  create table time_entries 
  (employee_id integer, 
  start_date date, 
  end_date date, 
  CONSTRAINT pk_time_entries PRIMARY KEY (employee_id, start_date))

  Suppose I have a line in this table (date in the format yyyy-mm-dd):
  
  Employee_ID, start_date, end_date
  -------------------------
  1, 2012-08-27, 2012-09-02
  
  
  As you can see the difference between dates is 7 days. I want to write a query so that each day has its own line, that is, I want to write a query that translates into 1 line above 7 rows. This is the result set, I want:
  
  Employee_ID, start_date, end_date
  -------------------------
  1, 2012-08-27, 2012-08-27

  This is not good design. Different databases have different ways of doing things for the best performance, etc. You are advised to use the best data, you write the query and does not focus on making things way 'generic '. This way you could design a "database layer" (aka the database layer) specific to each database.

  I agree with your point of view. But the system, I'm currently train do not have a DAO layer for each type of database. All SQLs are coded in the business layer, and this is why all these SQLs are generic SQLs.

  Then you must accept this run of things in this code will be more difficult to do, probably more code involved and may not be as effective as it could be. As they say... sh! design t = sh! application of t.

• I missed the SHIFT key and press several keys in the lower corner of my keyboard LH. Firefox split up into several iterations, and I had to reboot.

  I missed the SHIFT key and press several buttons in the lower left corner of my keyboard. Firefox has lost the tab that I was using and divided into a separate iteration for each other (plus two I had closed). I could not recover and had to close all but one of them and restore all my tabs.

  What I had done and how I should have recovered?

  First, you need to update to Firefox 18.0.1 Firefox updated to the latest version. The version you are on is bug and little course.

  Second, it looks like you may have entered groups of tabs. Use tab groups to organize a large number of tabs is that look familiar?

• Splitting artboard into several work plans?

  I work with a file more old that someone else created. It consists of eleven 11 x 17 drawings, which were all created on a single work plan. I would get each drawing on its own work plan. I tried to save the file down to CS3, reopening it and choosing the tiles from the page, but I get an error that it cannot open the illustration. Is there another way to convert this into 11 work plans?

  I don't know anyway magical auto-tuile on 11 new 11 x 17 work plans. I would probably just start a new file with plans of 11 work organized as you want, then copy and paste the work of the original file.

  Don't foget Aketi!

  The two ways are really good and functional in my situation.
  I apologize for not giving version: I'm on 11g so I think that can use Unpivot. It would be really more faster (performance given the volume of data) to use unpivot characteristic of 11 g?

  If there is no significant difference, whereas I think is that SELECT... UNPIVOT would be faster. It is purely a guess. It depends on several factors, including your data, your index and your machine. I don't have access to one of them.

  Try both ways and compare performance. (Compare the results, too, to check that the two qiueries are really doing the same thing).
  If you need help, see this thread:

  I've never used before unpivot.

  This sounds like a good opportunity to learn.

• How to split a string into several substrings parent using a delimiter

  Hello

  I am forced to split a string into several substrings parent using a delimiter.

  And insert these substrings in variuou of the columns of a table in a row.

  For example. The sting is: ABC * DEF * GHI * JKH *.

  where ' *' is the separator.

  Desired output:

  Hello Salim,

  Leave the thread for reference... got this excerpt:

  with t as

  (

  Select "c: its: hgfd:1:23" Str

  )

  Select

  REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 1, null, 1) col1

  , REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 2, null, 1) col2

  , REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 3, null, 1) col3

  , REGEXP_SUBSTR (str, ' ([^:] *)(:|$)', 1, 5, null, 1) col5

  t;

  This code snippet works well, but for the fixed columns. Here are 5 predefined columns.

  But I need to have a logic that I can browse the string any No.. sometimes.

  For example. If I get 3 secondary channels of the parent chain... I need to insert into 3 columns.

  And if I get 6 strings under... I need to insert into 6 columns.

  Could you please help me develop a logic like that.

  I use Oracle database 10g.

  And the data are currently being collected on external table... but I can store in a variable or a column of a database table.

• Unique table with several columns or several tables split?

  What is the best.
  
  A table with multiple columns inside or divided into several tables. Why?
  How will the performance in the two scenarios?

  Hello

  user13024762 wrote:
  I have a table EMP that has column EMP_ID, EMP_NAME MGR_ID, MGR_NAME, SALARY, EXP_IN_MNTHS, EXP_IN_YRS... etc with multiple columns

  I have the following tables
  EMP-> EMP_ID, EMP_NAME

  Each row in the table emp thie represents a separate employee. I guess other columns in the emp table might be birth_date, social_security_number and status (by example, 'Active', 'Leave', 'complete'). Here's what an employee has (at least) one of. If there is a one-to-many relationship between an employee and an attribute, then you probably want another table for this attribute.

  BISHOP-> EMP_ID, MGR_ID, MGR_NAME

  There is a one-to-many relationship between employees and managers? In other words, an employee may have 2 or more managers? If Yes, then you need another table.
  If there is only a one-to-one relationship between employees and managers (in other words, if an employee is never more than 1 Manager) so why don't you just have a mgr_id column in the emp table?
  Managers are also used for? (This is often the case, as in scott.emp and hr.employees.) If so, do not store their names in the EME and tables of mgr. Store name (and date of birth and other information) in the table emp only and, if you need a table of Bishop, just the emp_id and mgr_id column.

  SAL-> EMP_ID, SALARY

  There is a one-to-many relationship between the employees and wages? In other words, an employee may have 2 or more treatments? If so, how will you use the values? Is a special treatments in some way, as it will be used more often than others? (In other words, you may have a current and past wages salary, but the last wages are rarely used.)
  If you never have more than 1 salary for a given employee, why not just have a sal column in the emp table?

  EXP-> EMP_ID, EXP_IN_MNTHS, EXP_IN_YRS

  There is a one-to-many relationship between the employees and what whether you store in this table?

  etc. with more tables

  What is the best based on

  (1) performance and data recovery
  (2) ease of use
  (3) maintainability

  A one-to-many relationship requires an additional table. If an employee can have up to 3 managers, don't have mgr1, mgr2 and mgr3 columns in the emp table. Use a separate table, with up to 3 lines for the same employee, instead.
  For 1-1 relationships, it is usually best to not have separate tables.

• Insert several lines with dynamic data

  Hello
  When I do an insert into a table that has several lines of dynamic information. on
  a page, it inserts all rows that are dynamically filled. I want only what he
  to insert the lines that I choose the initials on. How can I do? Let's say I
  have 5 items that are displayed on a page and I want to insert only original
  the first 2 because the last 3 are left blank, how should I do this? I tried
  implementation of an if statement that says:
  
  < cfif "form. "Help of # PNR_Approval_Initials #" NEQ "" > "".
  
  Then make the insertion in the table
  
  < cfelse >
  < / cfif >
  
  I have this game were also up in a loop that says:
  
  < cfloop index = "help" list = "" #form.listofids # "delimiters =",">"
  
  Here is the code for just the insertion. I also have a code here
  Update another table. I got this to work, so I just try to get the insertion
  works fine for the moment. I can not use this where the query statement:
  Where ItemID = #id # because I'm trying to insert into the table of approval, not
  the items table. The table is just updated with some other info. in
  a few other input boxes.
  
  < cfloop index = "help" list = "" #form.listofids # "delimiters =",">"
  < cfif "form. "Help of # PNR_Approval_Initials #" NEQ "" > "".
  
  < cfquery Datasource = '#application. DataSource #">"
  Insert into accreditation (APV_ItemID,
  APV_ECID,
  Document_Type,
  Approval_Initials)
  
  Values (' #Evaluate ("form.) (' ItemID # help # ") #',
  ' #Evaluate ("form. ("ECID # help #") #',
  < cfif isDefined (form '. ') ("Help of # PNR_Doc_Type # ') and
  "form. "Help of # PNR_Doc_Type #" NEQ "" > "".
  ' #Evaluate ("form. ("Help of # PNR_Doc_Type # ') #',
  < cfelse >
  NULL,
  < / cfif >
  
  < cfif isDefined (form '. ') ("Help of # PNR_Approval_Initials # ') and
  "form. "Help of # PNR_Approval_Initials #" NEQ "" > "".
  ' #Evaluate ("form. (Aide de # PNR_Approval_Initials #») #
  < cfelse >
  Null value
  (< / cfif >)
  
  < / cfquery >
  
  < / cfif >
  < / cfloop >
  
  On the page display, just a table of dynamic info. Here are the 4
  things that I have on this page that needs to be inserted to the database.
  
  < input type = "hidden" name = "' ECID #ItemID #" value = "#ECID #" > "
  < input type = "hidden" name = "' ItemID #ItemID #" value = "#ItemID #" > "
  < input type = "hidden" name = "" PNR_Doc_Type #ItemID # ' value = "PNR Req" > "
  
  < td align = "center" >
  < cfif Approval_Initials is not "" > "".
  #Approval_Initials #.
  < cfelse >
  
  < select name = "PNR_Approval_Initials #ItemID #" >
  < option value = "" > select initials < / option >
  < cfloop query = "ShowInitials" >
  < Cfif Engineer_Initials EQ 1 >
  < option value = "#Initials #" > #Initials # < / option >
  < / cfif >
  < / cfloop >
  < / select >
  
  < / cfif >
  < table >
  
  Can someone help me please on just the insertion in the database so that it
  will insert on the lines that I chose the initials on and not others? Thank you.

  You almost managed, but I see that you have commented.
