SQL to do a similar comparison against two concatenated columns...
I'm doing a similar search against two columns that contain a first name, but people could touch as "John Doe"Can I do a similar search against concatenated columns?
Kinda what I want to do...
Select * FROM worker_view WHERE
(LOWER (E.USUALFIRSTNAME) |) ' ' || Lower (E.LastName)) LIKE '% searchstring % '.
... but of course this isn't true... any direction would be appreciated!
Let's take your example as test case
First name: John
First name: Doe
Channel search possibilities:
'John'
'Doe'
'John Doe'
'Doe John'
SQL statement:
SELECT *
FROM worker_view
WHERE LOWER(E.USUALFIRSTNAME) LIKE LOWER('%searchstring%')
OR LOWER(E.LASTNAME) LIKE LOWER('%searchstring%')
OR LOWER(E.USUALFIRSTNAME) || ' ' || LOWER(E.LASTNAME) LOWER('%searchstring%')
OR LOWER(E.LASTNAME) || ' ' || LOWER(E.USUALFIRSTNAME) LOWER('%searchstring%')
We'd still miss that follows:
'JohnDoe'
'DoeJohn'
'John Doe'
'Doe John'
Hope that should be fine with your application.

SatyaHi Satya,
Here's another solution. You can try the formula below as it is:
Cast (floor (TIMESTAMPDIFF (sql_tsi_second, '-SNP_SESSION '.))) SESS_BEG, '-SNP_SESSION '. SESS_END) / 3600) as char). ':' ||
Cast (floor (mod (TIMESTAMPDIFF (sql_tsi_second, '-SNP_SESSION '.)))) SESS_BEG, '-SNP_SESSION '. ((SESS_END), 3600) / 60) as char). ':' ||
Cast (mod (TIMESTAMPDIFF (sql_tsi_second, '-SNP_SESSION '.))) SESS_BEG, '-SNP_SESSION '. SESS_END), 60) as char)I would like to know if that's what you're looking for.
Thank you

1. I have ot make a VI for verification nuumber two if equal, greater or lesser.

3. If the numbers are equal then print zero, if one is greater than 1, if its less print 2.

Build table allows you to create a table of Boolean in your results of the comparison, then Boolean table number to obtain a corresponding number. You can then wire this result number in the selector of the case.

Hello
I am a beginner absolut for LabView and I learned LV tutorials, but I have a question and need your help.
I have two digital inputs and one digital output and I want to output for example as many entries. What I need is how to compare two entry and decide for one of them.
When I use a comparison operator as equal or smaller, I get a Boolean result but not a numeric. How can I use this to get for example the bigger or smaller?
Thank you
Oliver
For example, you can use your superior decide who is actually higher then select this one through a structure of matter or a Select who will send you one to forward more great.
That functionality is already attached to the Min/Max function, check it out.

Hello
I have two tables USERS and LISTS:
And I want that there is a comparison between these two tables executed when user table USERS connect to the application.
They must compare the columns between the SEXES and AGE and if some users have the same attributes in its ranks as in a line in the table LISTS (here is unique each line) so that the user gets in his line in the column 'LIST_ID' the ID of the line with which attributes between GENDER and AGE.
Example:
USERS TABLE: exampleuser | Boby | McGrahem | Male | 18. -------
LISTS OF TABLE: 28 | examplelist | Male | 18
Once the Login of the user Boby gets in its ranks the ID = 28 because the SEX and AGE corresponds to the row of table LIST:
Result:
USERS TABLE: exampleuser | Boby | McGrahem | Male | 18. 28
CREATE TABLE "USERS" ( "USERNAME" VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL ENABLE, "FORRNAME" VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL ENABLE, "SURNAME" VARCHAR2(15) NOT NULL ENABLE, "GENDER" VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL ENABLE, "AGE" NUMBER, "LIST_ID" NUMBER, CONSTRAINT " USERS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("USERNAME") USING INDEX ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "LISTS" ( " LIST_ID" NUMBER NOT NULL ENABLE, " LISTNAME" VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL ENABLE, "GENDER" VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL ENABLE, "AGE" VARCHAR2(3) NOT NULL ENABLE, CONSTRAINT " LISTS_PK" PRIMARY KEY ("LIST_ID") USING INDEX ENABLE
I need help for coding this, if someone be so good.
This is my essay:
DECLARE v_listid varchar2(100); BEGIN SELECT LIST_ID into v_listgid FROM LISTS WHERE GENDER = (SELECT GENDER FROM USERS WHERE UPPER(TRIM(USERNAME)) = UPPER(TRIM(:APP_USER))) AND AGE = (SELECT AGE FROM USERS WHERE UPPER(TRIM(USERNAME)) = UPPER(TRIM(:APP_USER))); UPDATE USERS SET LIST_ID = v_listid WHERE UPPER(TRIM(USERNAME)) = UPPER(TRIM(:APP_USER)); END;
I'd like to REALLY shy away using the USER name as the primary key, because the fact that users can create duplicate user names... YOU should NEVER base a PK on the entry of user, the better to let the database create and maintain this element of date...
FIX:
UPDATE to users U
SET List_Id = (SELECT List_Id OF lists L WHERE L.Gender = U.Gender and L.SOMENUMBER = U.SOMENUMBER) AND
Upper (U.UserName) = UPPER(:APP_USER);
Don't really want to cut the strings, Oracle which will do since they are of type varchar2 columns...
Thank you

Comparison of two values Datetime, but only the part of everyone's schedule
Hello. I have two Datetime objects on my form. Both are formatted and only display the HH:MIPM. I have a validation requirement where I have to check if: TimeA is higher (: TimeB - 30 minutes). What would be the best way to build an IF condition allows to assess both these Datetime variables and determines if the time portion to: TimeA is greater than the time portion of: TimeB - 30 minutes? The part 'date' Datetime value should not be taken into account in the comparison.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Published by: Buechler on April 13, 2010 10:43If you really want to ignore the date and to assess the time, I would like to convert it each date to CHAR formatted as time column and convert it back dated to essentially match the date part. You can then perform a calculation of standard date to get the time difference and check if the difference is more than 30 minutes. For example:
DECLARE TIME_B DATE := To_Date(To_Char(:DATA_BLOCK.TIME_B,'HH24:MI:SS'),'HH24:MI:SS'); TIME_A DATE := To_Date(To_Char(:DATA_BLOCK.TIME_A,'HH24:MI:SS'),'HH24:MI:SS'); BEGIN IF ( ABS(TIME_B - TIME_A) > .021 ) THEN /* If you divide 30/1440 you get the numeric equivilent of 30 minutes. (.021) */ -- Differnece is greater than 30 minutes! -- Do Something Here.... ELSE -- Difference is LESS than 30 minutes! -- Do Something here.... END IF; END;
I hope this helps.

Value of aggrigate of procedure - Get Oracle on the comparison of two-column based
Hi all
I've written a procedure that accepts an input parameter and returns a refcursor.
The logic used in the procedure is:
The procedure is used to display the summary and the report in detail. When the input parameter has more than one saperated comma then it will act as a synthesis report, and when there is just a value as input, then it will act like a detailed report.
The input parameter is as "AA12345, BB45434, HJ89736," the first two characters is Brand_id and the rest of the 5 character is the propery_id.
The aggrigation of aggrigation query is:
Select Month_name, Year, sum (REVPAR), Sum (ADR) in the FIS_KPI_TREND where
Brand_id = 'AA' and SIte_id = '12345' Month_name group, year;
The above query will worke fine for detail report when there is just a value for the entry as 'AA12345 '.
The problem is coming to the summary report when I need to get the value of aggrigated for all the brand and the site which is entered in the input parameter.
So I changed the query in the form:
Select Month_name, Year, sum (REVPAR), Sum (ADR) in the FIS_KPI_TREND where
Brand_id | SIte_id in ('AA12345', 'BB45434', 'HJ89736') of the Group of Month_name, year;
(I use parser function to parse a comma saperated values.)
By doing this, I get the desired result, but the performance has decrised that the Index is based on Brand_id and Site_id but I'm using Brand_ID | Site_id for my research.
The one you suggest another way to rewrite this query so that it can take the index and not give me the output of sesired.
Database used: Oracle 10 g
Thanks in advance.

Published by: Sumit Narayan, 11 April 2010 22:00I'd be inclined to do something like that to analyze the list separated by commas, that allows you to join without the concatenation of the columns as you do now.
ME_XE?select substr(column_value, 1, 2) as brand_id, substr(column_value, 3, length(column_value)) as site_id from table(sys.ODCIVARCHAR2LIST('AA12345','BB45434','HJ89736')); 2 3 4 BRAND_ID SITE_ID ---------- ---------- AA 12345 BB 45434 HJ 89736 3 rows selected. Elapsed: 00:00:00.20 ME_XE? ME_XE?select * from v$version; BANNER ---------------------------------------------------------------- Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Product PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production 5 rows selected. Elapsed: 00:00:00.39 ME_XE?
So for your case...
Select f.Month_name, f.Year, sum(f.REVPAR), Sum(f.ADR) from FIS_KPI_TREND f, table(sys.ODCIVARCHAR2LIST('AA12345','BB45434','HJ89736')) t where f.Brand_id = t.brand_id and f.SIte_id = t.site_id group by f.Month_name, f.Year;

No sequences present in the comparison of two models of auto-increment columns and triggers
Hi, I'm using Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler version 4.0.3 and I get the same behavior described in the
.Y at - it an update on this issue?
Thank you
Hello
No DOF preview is currently generated differences in properties on the auto-increment columns properties page.
However, if you create a sequence with the relevant name (and the user as appropriate) in your physical model Oracle, then its properties will be used instead of the ones on the page Auto Increment, and in this case the DOF preview will include the DDL for changes in its properties, e.g.
FALL OF SEQUENCE "TABLE_1_SEQ".
;
CREATE SEQUENCES "TABLE_1_SEQ."
START WITH 5
INCREMENT OF 10
;
If only the increment "by" is changed, an ALTER SEQUENCE will be generated:
CHANGE THE SEQUENCE "TABLE_1_SEQ".
INCREMENT OF 10
;
