Need help in writing a stored procedure, for copying data from one table to multiple tables.
Here is the scenario example:
Table1 has 10 columns with 20 rows of data.
Table2 (primary key will be sequence generator),Table3
Insert 4 columns values from Table1 into Table2, and 4 columns into Table3 (Check condition below)
Condition when inserting data into table3:
-Whenever data is inserted into Table3 (from table1) there will be one field in table3 which has the primary key value of Table2 and some values from Table 1.
Please help....
try INSERT INTO dest_table (COL1,COL2,...,COLn) SELECT COLa,COLb,...,COLz FROM source_table

I have a table named as T1 with few columns. Out of these columns, one column name is INSERT_DATE and its datatype is TIMESTAMP(3). I want to update the INSERT_DATE column with data "ABC" in all rows.
CREATE TABLE T1(NAME VARCHAR2(5), INSERT_DATE TIMESTAMP(3));
INSERT INTO T1 VALUES('NAVIN',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP);
INSERT INTO T1 VALUES('KAVIN',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP);
INSERT INTO T1 VALUES('TAVIN',CURRENT_TIMESTAMP);
I have queried in oracle like
UPDATE T1
SET INSERT_DATE = 'ABC';
COMMIT;
It is not getting updated. Is there anything I need to add a code.
I have two different table:
Table1, Table2.
Two tables have different columns and nothing in common. What I am looking to get is
if Table1 is empty/null then
output Table2
else
output table1
Is it possible to get it done in Oracle? Any leads would be appreciated.
Accordingly to your phrase:
if Table1 is empty/null then output Table2 else output table1
I think the solution is (I briefed Table1, Table2 by A, B respectively ):
--I created this tables to test the solution
create table A( id number, val varchar2(5));
create table B( code varchar2(5), event_dt date);
insert into b(code, event_dt)
values ('test', sysdate);
--query(1)
select b.code, to_char(b.event_dt,'yyyy-mm-dd')
from b
where not exists (select 1 from a)
union
select to_char(id), to_char(val)
from a
;
--now insert data on the other table (to test purposes)
insert into A(id, val)
values(1, 'TestA');
--run the query(1) again
The key is "union", kind of repeat your query when the first portion deals to no data
found.
Please remember to CAST your columns to achieve the same DATA-TYPES required by UNION
Best regards.
Table description are in the link
Table 1 and Table 2 has rows with A and D .I need these two removed from Table 2 .
Please check the link below for descriptive detail . Thank you .
You may do an INSERT OVERWRITE using a LEFT JOIN select query.
INSERT overwrite TABLE table2
SELECT t2.*
from table2 t2
LEFT JOIN table1 t1
on (t1.x = t2.p) --use appropriate common column name
WHERE t1.x is NULL; --where there's no common element in t2
I have a need to do the following
UPDATE TABLE2 t2
SET t2.product_id = (select t1.product_id from
table1 t1 where t1.matching_id = t2.matching_id)
Except that TABLE2 has 27 million records. The product_id is a newly added column and hence populating data to it.
I could use a cursor , break down my record set in TABLE2 to a reasonably smaller number, But with 27 million records, I am not sure whats the best way.
Pl suggest, even if it means exporting my data to excel.
Update - THe matching columns are indexed too.
The only thing I could do different is replace the update for a CREATE TABLE AS
CREATE TABLE table2_new AS
SELECT t2.* (less product_id), t1.product_id
FROM table1 t1
JOIN table2 t2
ON t1.matching_id = t2.matching_id
But later you will have to add the CONSTRAINTS manually, delete table2 and replace for table2_new
update (select t1.product_id as old_product_id, t2.product_id as new_product_id
from table1 t1
join table2 t2 on (t1.matching_id = t2.matching_id)) t
set t.new_product_id = t.old_product_id
I have 2 tables - A and B . Table A has two columns, pkey (primary key) and col1. Table B also has two columns, pr_key (primary key but not a foreign key) and column1. Both tables have 4 rows. Table B has no values in column1, while table A has column1 values for all 4 rows. So my data looks like this
Table A
pkey col1
A 10
B 20
C 30
D 40
Table B
pr_key column1
A null
B null
C null
D null
I want to update table B to set the column1 value of each row equal to the column1 value of the equivalent row from table A in a single DML statement.
Should be something like that (depends on SQL implementation you use, but in general, the following is rather standard. In particular should work in MS-SQL and in MySQL.
INSERT INTO tblB (pr_key, column1)
SELECT pkey, col1
FROM tblA
-- WHERE some condition (if you don't want 100% of A to be copied)
The question is a bit unclear as to the nature of tblB's pr_key, if for some reason this was a default/auto-incremented key for that table, it could just then be omitted from both the column list (in parenthesis) and in the SELECT that follows. In this fashion upon insertion of each new row, a new value would be generated.
Edit: It appears the OP actually wants to update table B with values from A.
The syntax for this should then be something like
UPDATE tblB
SET Column1 = A.Col1
FROM tblA AS A
JOIN tblB AS B ON B.pr_key = A.pkey
This may perform better:
MERGE INTO tableB
USING (select pkey, col1 from tableA) a
ON (tableB.pr_key = a.pkey)
WHEN MATCHED THEN UPDATE
SET tableB.column1 = a.col1;
It sounds like you want to do a correlated update. The syntax for that in Oracle is
UPDATE tableB b
SET column1 = (SELECT a.column1
FROM tableA a
WHERE a.pkey = b.pr_key)
WHERE EXISTS( SELECT 1
FROM tableA a
WHERE a.pkey = b.pr_key )
The WHERE EXISTS clause isn't necessary if tableA and tableB each have 4 rows and have the same set of keys in each. It is much safer to include that option, though, to avoid updating column1 values of tableB to NULL if there is no matching row in tableA.
