Update and request for insertion

I'm unable to write the query to update or insert or both the column of a table with the value on the other table once he finds an exact match

So here's the table data and sample to create.
create table code1 
(
    codeid number,
    codedesc varchar2(60)
);
 
Insert into code1 values ( 1,'R1 CONTRACTS');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 2,'R2 CONTRACTS');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 3,'R3 CONTRACTS');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 4,'R5 CONTRACTS');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 5,'R9 CONTRACTS');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 6,'R10 CONTRACTS');

Insert into code1 values ( 7,'R1');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 8,'R1 DEPT');
 
Insert into code1 values ( 9,'R1 SS');
 
create table table1 
(   
    tablekey number,
    prefix  varchar2(25),
    codedesc    varchar2(60)
);
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (1,'1001PAC');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (2,'1001MXT');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (3,'1002PAE');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (4,'1003PCS');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (5,'1004BDX');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (6,'1005PAC');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (7,'1006PAC');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (8,'1007LDR');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (9,'1009LCR');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (10,'1010LBR');
 
Insert into table1(tablekey,prefix) values (11,'ABCDEF');
I'm writing a query that would update the value of column - codedesc (currently Null) of the table1 table: after it is a string of column - table code1 codedesc.

If it finds several match then it should update a line with the first matching string and insert the other row in double with the second matching string

The logic for the match is, - take - 2nd column of table-codedesc code value and get 2 characters. For example, when the string is - R1 CONTRACTS, the string will be 1. (Select substr ("R1 CONTRACTS, 2, 2) of the double). -Output will be 1.

Now,.
Look in table 1 for the 3rd position of the prefix that corresponds to the string returned by the query above. So, if the prefix is '1001PAC', it should look for 2 value of figures from the 3rd position. So, in this case it will be 01. Digitally 01 and 1 are equal, then the match is found for this line in the table1 table, so we will need to update the value of the column codedesc with the "contracts of R1.
tablekey,    prefix            codedesc    
---------- ------------------------------------------------------------
 
      1               1001PAC     R1 CONTRACTS    -- Needs to be update with this value. 
      2               1001PAC     R1     -- This row needs to be inserted 
      3               1001PAC     R1 DEPT     -- This row needs to be inserted 
      4               1001PAC     R1 SS     -- This row needs to be inserted 
      5               1002PAE     R2 CONTRACTS
...
      11             ABCDEF                                --Null ( No Need to update when no match found).
Some time I have a similar scenario (update only and not insertion) and Frank's Script took care. So I was wondering if I could / Merge Into to achieve statement change.
MERGE INTO     table1          dst
USING   (
          SELECT  LPAD ( RTRIM ( SUBSTR ( codedesc
                                 , 2
                               , 2
                               )
                          )
                     , 2
                     , '0'
                     )          AS match_key
          ,     codedesc
          FROM     code1
     )               src
ON     (src.match_key     = SUBSTR ( dst.prefix
                       , 3
                     , 2
                     )
     )
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
     SET     dst.codedesc     = src.codedesc
;
SQL> select * from v$version;

  • Windows Update causing screen to go back and request for boot disk

    laptop Windows 7 Home premium.  When I get windows updates, they eventually turn off my computer, and then restart.  Happens to the password acer page, and after he typed my password, instead of windows startup, which normally, it is used to do the same with the updates, now it turns off the computer and comes back with a back screen, type, then at the end of it, it says to insert a boot disk.  How can I prevent this from happening. Why not just open windows as it used to do?  (if I remove the battery from the laptop and it stops completely it will finally boot normally and go to windows, hense I am able to write this, but I don't want to do all of this to return to windows.)  Thanks for any help you can provide.  TJ

  • Ideas and requests for updated Firmware Sony DSC-RX10

    I stay with her to see what fits with the first update of the firmware so I really video features of the large sensor RX10... I focus mainly on the video related updates in this post:

    Menus require a page of favorites to store frequently used functions as connection or wifi card format... Maybe the fn could be broadened to include these selections?

    In Aperture priority mode, it would be useful to define a minimum-Max shutter speed range. In this mode, only the camera often falls to 1/30 that blurs any sort of same subject in slow motion. So, it would be good to have a little more control in this setting without switching to the full manual. It goes same for shutter priority: I would like to specify a range of opening similar to the Auto ISO function

    Add video update options. Outside of a fixed object or interview situation, holding the focus is scary compared to video cameras small sensor and it is very similar to the focus on any DSLR I used for the video. In the auto focus mode S and C background often focus instead of the object in the foreground, if there is a lot of movement, and then the update has had a lot of delay, find the subject in the foreground even when centered in the frame... So, I had to stick to a manual focus for the videos so far. I like the tracking feature, but it is difficult to engage in video mode...

    Development let grow while shooting video. I can't understand how to enlarge a section of the image in manual focus mode when shooting video (you can when shooting still images). I thought this would be a feature of work in video mode, as well...

    For the last week or three Firefox updates two or three times for each update. Sometimes it refreshes without obvious reason. For example, I'll be in the middle of typing in the message forum block & it refreshes. Or by filling out an online form. Or simply viewing a page.

    You can check for problems caused by an extension that is not working properly.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

"Download 13 of 46 messages" or something like is always in the activity window. Reopen it changes every time I post. then reopen, I have duplicates of messages I deleted previously.

    In my history of update, this update shows as installation again and again "with success" since August, but he is still listed as an update to install.  This also applies to Windows Vista Service Pack 2 (kb948465), who has reportedly updated several times and still is listed as an update.

(Assistance with this manufacturer.)  I'm not sure it solved the problem.  Since then, I have had problems with the computer running the browser to leave/run slowly, slowly, the problems to open programs.  This may be due to the loop of 'Windows update '?

    Hello

    I recently picked up a subscription to creative cloud for Photoshop and Lightroom.

    First question: I use bandwidth every time I have to edit an image in Photoshop?  Or is it just on bandwidth for the download/installation of the original application?

    Second question: there is a menu option in Photoshop to browse in Bridge.  East bridge of course included in the subscription of Photoshop?  Or bridge needs to be purchased separately.  If so, what is the cost in £ GBP.

    Thanks for your help.

    Fiona

    Hello Fiona,

    The bandwidth of your Internet connection will be used only for the initial download of the application. Rest depends on where you download any other stuff from the internet or not.

    Work on an application that requires not necessarily the Internet.

    The bridge is a part of the plan of photography.

    (What applications are included in the plan of creative photography Cloud?)

    Kind regards

  • Graphics update and memory for my A30 161

    My Satellite A30 161 uses 64MBRadeon and 512 MB of memory, the way I use it from the moment looks like im will need an upgrade on my chart and memory. Toshiba can this do?

    Hello

    I think that your graphics card shares its main memory with your RAM and you should be able to adjust the amount of memory allocated to your VGA card since then in the BIOS. The maximum value allowed is 128 MB and can be selected in UMA memory allocation in your BIOS settings. Note that it will have to reduce your available RAM as a result.
