SQL Update statement

Hi all

I have a table with 5 columns Col1, Col2, Col3, Col4, Col5. The requirement for the company is that all four columns Col1 by Col4 must be filled or any of the four columns must be filled.

Any line that does not conform the above rule must be marked as error.

I would like to know how I update the Col5 with 'Error' when 2 rules above does not comply with a statement direct update (sql).

For Ex:

Col1 Col2 Col3 Col4 Col5
Row1 has b c and d
Row2
Row3 a c error
Row4 a b c error

Thank you

More efficient UPDATE would be:

UPDATE your_table
  SET col5 = 'Error'
  WHERE NOT (
                (col1 IS NOT NULL AND col2 IS NOT NULL AND col3 IS NOT NULL AND col4 IS NOT NULL)
             OR
                (col1 IS NULL AND col2 IS NULL AND col3 IS NULL AND col4 IS NULL)
            )
/

Or you can create the check constraint:

ALTER TABLE your_table
  ADD CONSTRAINT your_table_CHK1
    CHECK(
             (col1 IS NOT NULL AND col2 IS NOT NULL AND col3 IS NOT NULL AND col4 IS NOT NULL)
          OR
             (col1 IS NULL AND col2 IS NULL AND col3 IS NULL AND col4 IS NULL)
         )
/

to avoid bad lines in the first place.

PL/SQL: Update statement

SQL dear Experts,

I'm writing a procedure to execute a simple DML statement. For example below stmt update: I provide COL1 and COL2 as inputs based on the update should run. Can you suggest how this can be implemented?

UPDATE TABLE1 SET COL1=123 WHERE COL2=456;

create or replace
procedure test1 (col1 varchar2,col2 varchar2) as

v_str varchar2(90);
begin
v_str := 'update emp set '||col1 ||'= 55 where '||col2 ||'= 7369';
execute immediate v_str;
end;

DECLARE
  COL1 VARCHAR2(30);
  COL2 VARCHAR2(30);
BEGIN
  COL1 := 'SAL';
  COL2 := 'EMPNO';

  TEST1(
    COL1 => COL1,
    COL2 => COL2
  );
END;

Is that what you want?

Gears update statement syntax

I obviously have something messed up with the syntax of the following statement but I can't figure it out... anyone know what im doing wrong?
```
_db.execute('UPDATE sbItems SET sbs1 = ? WHERE thedate = ?', [td,db]);
```
```
        sql = 'select * from sbItems where thedate = ?';
    rs = _db.execute(sql,[thedate]);
    if (rs.isValidRow()) {
        sql = 'UPDATE sbItems SET sbs1 = ? WHERE thedate = ?';
        _db.execute(sql, [sbs1,thedate]);

    } else {
        alert("Row not Found");

Turns out I had a problem with my formatting to survive that was causing the problem, the above code work if someone else happens to search for this... FYI "subsist" is in fact a string and not a date in my table...

SQLite Update statement

I have a database in my application, and part of it (obviously) will require the user to update the database with the current information.

There are 24 columns of the table, and I have my update function works almost 100%, except that there are two drop downs, and when the user updates the record individual everything that is selected in the fall of two downs, is applied to all records.

My update statement is like this:
```
var statement:SQLStatement = new SQLStatement();statement.sqlConnection = connection;statement.text = "UPDATE TABLE SET " +      "OneFish=?, " +       "TwoFish=?, " +       "RedFish=?, " +       "BlueFish=?, " +          // CONTINUES AS TEXT INPUTS DOWN TO       "DropDown1=?, " +     "DropDown2=?, " +          // FEW MORE TEXT INPUTS THEN                "WHERE RECORD_ID=?";       statement.parameters[0] = OneFish.text;       statement.parameters[1] = TwoFish.text;       statement.parameters[2] = RedFish.text;       statement.parameters[3] = BlueFish.text;          // CONTINUES AS TEXT INPUTS DOWN TO       statement.parameters[17] = DropDown1.selectedItem;        statement.parameters[18] = DropDown2.selectedItem;          // FEW MORE TEXT INPUTS THEN        statement.parameters[23] =                FishOption.selectedItem.RECORD_ID;                statement.addEventListener(SQLEvent.RESULT, updateWorked);                statement.addEventListener(SQLErrorEvent.ERROR, updateFailed);                statement.execute();
```
ALL updates day very well and shown to the a specific RECORD_ID. However, the decline in the bottom change overall.

This does not happen on my service of "addFish". Someone out there have any ideas why this is?

Update: It isn't my SQL. If I close the application and then go back, the changes show correctly. The drop down menus are simply not refreshing properly after the update of the database.

J.Rab!

I literally JUST thought out and sat next to the woman to rejoice with the laptop on my lap! Then the BlackBerry made his small notification and I said out loud, "oh look, it's probably somebody tell me what I did wrong before that I could update!

Had dinner and a record label with a look at it to understand.

To display the resulting data & update fields, I was setting the command prompt from the drop down menus! I went my output and changed function use the selectedItem and success!

I also forgot to include a refreshTheDatabase(); at the end of my updateFunction() function call;

I hit a brick wall with this for several hours this afternoon and I can't believe it was that simple! I should have got up and walked away earlier!

Commit to taking a lot of time for the update statement to bulk - 11 GR 2

Hi team,

We have a source table, which is the main table for our application.

When I commit a transaction after update block, it takes long about 2 to 4 minutes.

I don't understand why it takes too long...

Could you please help me on this fix, please...

It's the details on the table,

Total number of records: 35 M record

Validation interval: 500 records / commit

Total scores: 3

total number of columns: 95 - including primary, unique and foreign key columns (all columns will be updated for each update because update from the app online)

Total no of the foreign key columns: 12

Unique key column: 1

Total index: 27 ( including the key index foreign 12 + 1 + 1 index of primary key Unique key index )

example of update statement,

UPDATE DIRECTORY_LISTING_STG
SET
  COLUMN_1 = :VAL_1
  .
  .
  .
  COLUMN_94 = :VAL_94
WHERE RECORD_KEY = :P_KEY_VAL;

The table is.

line-by-line UPDATE is slow by slow transformation

In Oracle no other session can 'see' upgrade from uncommitted changes.

The only way to significantly reduce the elapsed time is to have only 1 UPDATE & 1 COMMIT!

Update statement can be used depending on the result cache?

Hi all
I stumbled on an interesting question. UPDATE statement is used in the following function, even if the feature is created RESULT_CACHE. It seems illogical. I was wondering, is it possible?
If so, why RESULT_CACHE is used? Because it means "do not execute the function, look for the result of the hash table and return the results to the user ' if the UPDATE statement, so doesn't mean it should run for each call and use with RESULT_CACHE and UPDATE/DELETE/MERGE is illogical or wrong?
Thanks for your help.

Yes, it's the challenge of PL/SQL quiz - and the point of the quiz is only automatic relies on parsing by Oracle only supports arrays of account that is QUESTIONED.

The tables that are affected by DML not a query as an update do not figure in automatic invalidation of a cache.

I was hoping that the explanations given in the questionnaire itself would not lead to a thread - rather it would provide a pleasant and clear answer. So feel free to let me know if you think otherwise.

As to why Oracle would let you include DML not a query inside a function of caching of result, well... I can easily accept that you shouldn't do this - in general. But I don't see that we should make it impossible. It would probably be a good candidate for an another PLW (PL/SQL warning), as in:

"Non-requetes DML in a result caching function will not affect caching and can result in unexpected results."

Helps when a special character and is included in the update statement

Hi gurus,

Please suggest me here. Your help is greatly appreciated.
Am wririting an update statement on a column called Phone_num.description varchar2 (40).

Here is my update statement:

UPDATE Phone_num
DESCRIPTION SET = "Beta - EMV / not for the purpose of Production."
WHERE DIAL_NUMBER = 18662307528
AND DESCRIPTION =' to & VERIZON';

Here is the structure of the table:
Phone_num. Description varchar2 (40)
Phone_num. DIAL_NUMBER Number (11)
Sample data:

So when I run the sql script it pop-up is to highlight.
Please suggest how I can handle this.

Hello

As John said, the easiest thing is just to disable the functionality of substitution of variables, saying:

SET DEFINE OFF

before the statement. If you need to re - enable this feature, then tell

ALL SET ON

just after the statement.

If you can't do that, then break the literal string in 2 parts immediately after the & character, like this:

UPDATE Phone_num

DESCRIPTION SET = "Beta - EMV / not for the purpose of Production."

WHERE DIAL_NUMBER = 18662307528

AND DESCRIPTION = ' to &'. | "VERIZON";

You can't have a substitution variable whose name starts by ', then SQL ("more does not interpret &" as meaning a substituton variable.)

Update statement is a coherent lof 'Get '.

Why the update does not generate as much "becomes"?
Thanks in advance,

I don't know the reason why at first sight, but it is obvious that the inner nested loop was doing a lot of work (full index scan).

My first thought was to rewrite the query in a merge statement.

Perhaps leads to a more effective plan and so no need to delve deeper into the issues you have raised ;-)

merge into FUS PFA_FUSIONFACC

a_l'_aide_de)

SELECT

NPC. COD_FACTUcaRA AS COD_FACTURA

NPC. TOT_BASEIMPO_E AS TOT_BASEIMPO

NPC. TOT_IMPEMI AS TOT_IMPEMI

OF NPC, CTA AUX_CTAFACTU PFA_NPCOFACTMES

where

NPC.cod_postal = CTA.cod_postal

AND NPC.cta_facturac = CTA.cta_facturac

) cta

(TBT. CTA_FACTURAC = WAS. CTA_FACTURAC)

When matched then update

Was SET. COD_FACTURA = cta. COD_FACTURA

was. TOT_CARGO_DB = cta. TOT_BASEIMPO

was. TOT_CARGO_FB) = cta. TOT_IMPEMI

where ROWNUM<>

problem by making an update statement

Hi all
I should write an update statement
These tables: country: name, code, population, nextyearr_population...
nextyear_population is empty, first, I should get population_growth of the picture of the population, then compute the year population next according to population and population_growth corrent

population: country (in fact no code name of the country), population_growth,...

So I wrote and I got this error

Error starting at line 1 in command:

update country c
set c.nextyear_population=(c.population+ ((c.population*(select pop.population_growth from population pop join country co on co.code=pop.code))/100)
)
where country.code=population.country
Error at Command Line:4 Column:20

Merger of statement: with several Update statement.
Hello

I'm trying under the merge statement. However to get the error "not correctly completed 0ra-00933 sql command.

In fact, my join conditions are the same, but I wanted to update the different columns based on the different places where clause in the update statement.

for example.

FUSION
IN abc3 tgt
With the HELP of abc CBC
WE (src.cust = tgt.cust)
WHEN MATCHED
THEN
UPDATE
SET tgt.sales = src.sales
where tgt.cust = 'Cust3'
UPDATE
SET tgt.sales1 = src.sales
where tgt.cust = 'Cust2';

Please let me know if there is no work around for this.
Hi, pm

You can try this please.
```
MERGE
 INTO ABC3 TGT
 USING ABC SRC
  ON (src.cust = tgt.cust)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET TGT.SALES = DECODE(TGT.CUST,'Cust3',SRC.SALES,TGT.SALES),
           TGT.SALES1 = DECODE(TGT.CUST,'Cust2',SRC.SALES,TGT.SALES1)
WHERE TGT.CUST='Cust3' OR tgt.cust='Cust2';
```

How to use the user defined function in the Update statement
Hi all

I wrote under the update statement to update the column based on the return value of function. but it does not work. Could someone help me on this. This function returns a single value for each project.

Thanks in advance.

UPDATE dg2. OD_PROJ_LOOKUP_TEMP o
SET Months_In_Stage_Cnt = Months_In_Stage_Cnt_ret (o.project_id) select the double;

Thank you
Deb
PLS-00231: function 'MONTHS_IN_STAGE_CNT_RET' cannot be used in SQL

-What is the function that is declared private in a package? If Yes, then it must be public, otherwise the SQL engine cannot be used.
