• size of a table in an access database

  Hello

  I try to know the size of a table in the access database, then I would be to turn it into a string value, but I have no success.

  I have attached a JPEG of my code.

  in the concatenated string should appear "rapportx.png" where x represents the size of the table

  You must use 'Decimal string' to convert the number to text.

  Please also note that the size "Array" returns a 2D array in your case: If you have two dimensions.

  Finally, and above all, to count the number of records it reveal be more efficient to use the sql count() function:

• Migration: Access 2003 to Oracle SQL

  Dear all
  
  I would like to migrate from Access 2003, to Oracle 10 g. I use SQL Developer to the task and have reached the point to capture the XML file I exported from access. I need to create a repository of migration on the target database, and this causes problems that I have all of the necessary privileges.
  
  In the process, I have been informed that the migration from Access to Oracle are not easy to reach and in fact requires careful planning before execution. My goal is not really to transfer the data stored in the database file. I only really want to transform the logic of code SQL Oracle access. I was wondering if anyone could advise on the typical sides of success in the realization of this task.
  
  I migrated the same Access database to MS SQL Server some time ago and the process seems to be going smoothly. Would it not be reasonable then to migrate MS SQL to Oracle SQL, if this is easier?
  
  Any comments would be much appreciated.
  
  Thank you.

  Use the option of rapid migration of SQL Developer...

  Here, you specify the mdb file and oracle database connection...

  and then it's just a matter of clicks

  you will be able to transfer your data from access to oracle...

  personally, I have not tried the ODBC option between oracle and access...

  will try that...

  Why 24247 complies for access by index rowid table, for access to the index, is 2226.
  Why the full table scan is faster in this case?

  Hisoka says:
  Why the full table scan is faster in this case?

  As P. Forstmann suggested, it would help if you can post queries and their results of EXPLAIN PLAN.
  Now, I know guess is bad, but I want to have a go on this one, so we'll see ;)
  My comments (in no particular order of relevance/importance)
  (1) you use a non patched (10.2.0.1) version which, I believe, is known to contain many bugs (and therefore can throw 'surprises')
  (2) the name of the index, it is clear that PK_DDOALT is a unique index (supporting the primary key constraint) table DDO_ALT so
  factor clustered index is (probably) not the issue.
  (3) the TkProf output tells 36496 lines are currently extracted from table DDO_ALT in the query that uses the index analysis while
  36679 lines are currently extracted a DDO_ALT table in the query that uses the full table scan.
  It seems that the DDO_ALT table has about 36679 lines. Now, it will be slower (such as oracle to access most of these lines using the index
  you will need to visit a (table) block at the same time (and will eventually visit same block several times) compared to the full table scan.
  who reads several blocks at a time (and eventually NOT have to visit same block several times). This can be confirmed
  by the numbers "cr" TkProf. 24247 consistent gets for the query using access indexed for 36496 lines (with the exception of consistent gets for the reading of the index)
  2018 coherent vs gets to access 36679 lines.
  (4) the operation "line Source" indicates that the query using an indexed access is written so that it forces the use of the index (most likely
  using an indicator of index). It's that reason optimizer uses "INDEX FULL SCAN" and not "INDEX RANGE SCAN". A FULL INDEX SCAN bed set
  structure of the index, a block at a time, which is not an efficient operation compared to the optimizer to choose naturally "INDEX RANGE SCAN", which
  that will show some of the index blocks.
  (5) Finally, it appears this query that uses access indexed, is written to 'say' oracle how to process the query. Maybe it's OK if you think that
  your knowledge of the data schemas is better than knowledge of the optimizer. But this certainly isn't the case here.
  Your queries are probably something like
  Query using index:

  SELECT 
  FROM HOD_USER, (SELECT /*+ INDEX(DDO_ALT PK_DDOALT) */ 
                               FROM DDO_ALT
                              GROUP BY ) DD
  WHERE HOD_USER. = DD.
  GROUP BY 
  ORDER BY 
  

  The query using full table scan:

  SELECT 
   FROM (SELECT 
               FROM HOD_USER, DDO_ALT
            WHERE HOD_USER. = DDO_ALT.
               GROUP BY 
               ORDER BY )
  GROUP BY 
  ORDER BY 
  

  Published by: user503699 on August 21, 2010 18:47 added ORDER BY clauses for both queries

• Creating external Tables using the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE in PL/SQL

  Hi guys,.
  
  I am trying to create an external Table using the EXECUTE IMMEDIATE in a procedure and I managed to compile and no errors were generated. But when I try to run it from sql using the exec command I get the following error:
  
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------
  ERROR on line 5:
  ORA-00911: invalid character
  ORA-06512: at "GEO. TEST_DDL', line 4
  ORA-06512: at line 5
  
  -------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  I tried to check the whole statement to create the external table, but I can't find where is the error. Surprisingly, if I simply run the command table create external on sqlplus it works, but not a procedure.
  
  If anyone can help with ideas or experience?
  
  Geoffrey Kossami

  The error means that there is an identifier somewhere that starts with a nonalphanumeric. This is a typical mistake of editing. A procedure compiles correctly is not of course because the underlying dynamic sql running is OK. Which of course only be resolved when you try to run it.

  There is certainly a problem with the text you provide to be run as a piece of dynamic sql code. You should try to watch it with dbms_output and run this code in sqlplus. But your problem is with the code you run as dynamic PL/SQL, it is not itself compilable.

• Importing data into tables to grant access (developer sql 3.2)

  Hello
  I want to import data into a table PAY_BALANCE_BATCH_LINES which is an array of interface. I am connected to a schema (APPS) and this table belongs to the HR schema. However, if you look at the grants, the APPS schema has all access to this particular table. A TOAD, this used to work great.
  But in sqldeveloper, when I filter drop-down list of tables, I'm not able to find the table. Since it is my main means of downloading data I don't know how I can get access to download data in this table. I do not know the password for the schema HR incidentally.
  Is there a way out?
  Thank you very much

  Scroll to the bottom of the tree to the 'Other users' node, expand it, and then descend into HR > Tables. Then do your import.

  To another browser, right-click on your connection in the tree and open a browser schema.

• Presentation of external storage as Local to the SQL virtual servers

  Hello.

  Obligatory "I'm new" and 'sorry if this is in the wrong place' withdrawals.

  I have two SQL Server virtual machines (running on ESX 3.5) which I am (at the level of the BONE) clustering for redundancy.  All their storage would come from two HP AiO servers storage or local storage of the ESX Server.  For now, we don't have VirtualCenter.

  I need to present some sort of external storage for these virtual machines that they can (a) recognize as local so I can store files .mdf for SQL server on it, and (b) which can be configured as a cluster resource, so either can be accessed in the event of another machine down.

  I tried to create a new virtual hard disk, pointing to the raw space on some of my existing storage, but "raw device mapping" is greyed out.  I guess it's because he needs a real San for gross external storage as a virtual disk local card.  I also tried new creation and extensions adding storage to the storage devices in the configuration of ESX storage.  There's no joy.

  Should I VirtualCentre or a real SAN in order to present the raw disk space to a virtual machine?  If this is not the case, how can I do?  If so, which do I need and is there some kind of fudge or skilled people getaround may suggest that fits my needs of clustered SQL Server resources?

  Thank you.

  Rikk

  Hello

  Welcome to the forums! I have a few questions and comments.

  To use a RDM in normal mode you will need a SAN/NAS/iSCSI server to get there. Since the storage of the IOA is an iSCSI SAN or a NAS you want present storage to ESX using one of these methods.  I guess that you already do using iSCSI or NFS? You are using.

  I would not use Local Storage due to problems of redundancy.

  You have space on your AiO storage to create another logical unit number?

  A RDM is a logic unit number presented to the ESX host as a data bank that is not also a VMFS.  Once the logic unit number is presented for ESX you can do a RDM or you can do a VMFS and add another VMDK to your VM and move the .mdf for the new VMDK files. Or the other method should work. You can also access the server iSCSI directly from Windows and directly access a LUN to one end.

  You have many options at this point. Which way you want to go?

  Best regards

  Hello

  Sorry, I was not clear about that.
  The owner of the package needs direct privileges (not only privileges through a role) to compile the code, whehter it is DEFINE AUTHID or AUTHID CURRENT_USER. Option (3) does not help in this case; my mistake.

  I usually create packages in the same schema tables they use, which was option (2) in my previous message. There may be good reasons why you can't do that; for example, the package may reference multiple schemas tables. In this case, grant the necessary privileges directly to the owner of the whole.

• Simple query in Oracle Table in MS Access causes a full table scan.

  I run a very simple query in MS ACCESS to an Oracle table attached as follows:
  
  Select *.
  EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS-(EXPRESS is the name of the related table. SERVICE_EVENTS)
  When executed > MyDate()
  
  or
  
  Select *.
  EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS-(EXPRESS is the name of the related table. SERVICE_EVENTS)
  When executed > [Forms]! [MyForm]! [Date1]
  
  We have more than 50 machines and this query works well on more than half of them, using an Oracle Index on the field "run." Exactly the same thing running on other machines results in a full table scan, so regardless of the index (the DB access even access all machines).
  
  Strangely, if we write the query as follows:
  
  Select *.
  Of EXPRESS_SERVICE_EVENTS
  When executed > # 2009-09-04 08:00 #.
  
  It works fast everywhere!
  
  Any help with this "phenominon" would be appreciated.
  
  We did the things:
  Check the locale settings of the ODBC driver, MS Access settings (as in tools-> Options), we have the latest XP and Office service packs and re-related all the Access Tables on the slow and fast machines independently).

  All machines use the same version of the ODBC driver?

  If you have access to Metalink, check the following note:
  Note.257828.1 Scan of Table full Ext/Pub while seeking the DATE columns using the ODBC Oracle driver:

  In a Word, try "bind timestamp date" option in the dsn configuration and do not forget to update the links in the table.

  It will be useful,

• Compilation with SQL * more

  Hello world
  
  I am sure it is a simple and can someone help me:
  
  In other projects, I've always used TOAD or similar tools to compile my PL/SQL code, but with this project I have only SQL * more then when I run 'CREATE PROCEDURE '.... "I just get the message ' Warning: function created with compilation errors.
  
  I'm sure that compiling information are written in a table somewhere or maybe can be displayed directly in the SQL * more window (maybe there an option or the indicator "Compile"?) and so I hope someone can point me to a good HOWTO or give me one or two keywords that I can google under?
  
  Thank you very much

• External drive access time machine files

  I backed up an external hard drive with time machine, but now the external hard drive is dead and does not connect to my computer. How can I enter time machine and access those saved files? Because the player won't connect (USB), it does not appear when I'm in time machine.

  Mac OSX El Capitan 10.11.4

  Thank you

  Tracy

  Open time Machine and come back a few days in time using the interface

  Click on the name of your Mac in the DEVICES of direction on the left panel

  Two readers... the two Macintosh HD (unless you have changed the name) and the external hard drive is displayed

  You can navigate to find the files you want, or select the entire disk

  Right-click on the name of the external drive and select restore to

  Navigate to the destination where you want to restore the files
