    Display results in Columns

    Santa, Your questions are valid. But basically, there is no business requirement to achieve this. My friend was asked this question in an interview and we were wondering if this is possible. Assume that the table is a restricted one with finite number of rows - we can assume it to be 10. Since...

    Display results in Columns

    I am sorry to have missed an important point here. I cannot use a pl/sql. Instead I should be using normal SQL. Is it still possible?

    Have you tried using the Metric Dimensionality feature. You can set the Grouping to User. This should help you obtain the results.

    Oracle Character Set.

    Need to get some information related to Character set UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 Version 9i Currently when we implemented UTF-8, every special character occupied an additional byte. This means that we need to possibly double the field length in the oracle table. To avoid this, can we implement...

    Lookup on Master table

    Thank you very much maswein and mufasa... I was able to come out with a different solution for the same. I used flags in the master table that indicates inclusion or exclusion. Depending on the flags I use Case statements for joining the columns correspondingly. Actually, I wanted to solve this...

    Filter Element Search

    When you login into desktop, do you login as that same user or as an Administrator. So would this issue relate to any Security Filter (on that attribute). The other possibility could be element cache. You could delete all the Cache objects for that project and then try listing the elements.

    Updating view which doesn't have keys

    Thanks for the article, but I have some doubts. Whenever we use select from a view, Oracle executes the underlying sql (contructing the view) at run time. If I have updated the view, from where will Oracle get the updated data. Does this mean that updatable views are physically stored?
