    Compiling PRO*C on Windows 7

    Thanks for the quick response @taupirho. Thats the answer to my original question, thanks! Now I'm struggling with include files - theres a few around with the latest DEV-C++ so I need to experiment a bit more. The Pro*C precompiler doesn't like most of the includes that are available!

    Compiling PRO*C on Windows 7

    Hi All, Does anyone have any experience compiling Pro*C on Windows 7? Specifically, I'm trying (and failing) to compile any Pro*C at all using Dev-C++. I do not have Visual Studio installed, nor can I. I have installed the Oracle Instant Client 11.2.0.4.0, but all I can get from the...

    Linked list using structures

    I worked out the solution, and it's easier than I thought. I'll share my solution in case anyone else wants to know. Here's my code applied to a bubble sort: Structure holidayStructType Public holidayDate As Date Public holidayName As String End...

    Linked list using structures

    Thanks for the swift reply. However, I did look at that page and it doesn't specifically answer my question about the use of a structure type. Perhaps I should have been a little clearer in my OP. I want to look for the element of a structure in the linked list, where I know the value of...

    Linked list using structures

    Hi All, This is my first post for quite some time, having been active on some of the Oracle forums a while ago. I hope someone out there can point me in the right direction. I'm picking up VB.Net using Visual Basic 2010. I've used linked lists in C very effectively in the past, and I'd like...

    Data security in 11g

    I should also add we use quite a lot of external tables, usually CSV files, and these are also neastly stored on the encrypted volume.

    Data security in 11g

    Hi thargtheslayer, thanks for the very useful post. I hear you about the third party software issue, which is fair to say. But we have completed quite a lot of testing with this setup and I have to say it seems pretty robust. To be honest, I don't see the volume space being an issue because if...

    Data security in 11g

    Thanks for all your excellent replies as usual, guys. Our company requires that the entire database (read: tablespace(s)) is encrypted. ASO would be the ultimate solution, but we will need to take a look at the pricing very carefully. If DBMS_CRYPTO is like obfuscation toolkit, it is not...

    Data security in 11g

    Data security in 11g

    Thanks Dave. In that case my preferred method will be to store the tablespace files within a secured encrypted volume.

    Data security in 11g

    Can someone explain how, if at all, Oracle 11g data is secured in a tablespace? By this I mean, if I store some data in a table, then some 'person' removes the hard drive from the server to examine the raw data on the drive, would they be able to read the data directly? If so, whats the best...

    Joining Queries with Multiple Data Links

    Remove the FK link and create a link that is simply group-to-group. To do this, select the link tool then drag the group header from Q_FIRMS to the header of the Q_1 group. In your query for Q_1 you can then wite it asSELECT DISTINCT * FROM firms f, products p WHERE f.license_no = :license_no...

    argument [2] is an invalid or uninitialized number

    Is this straight PL/SQL or forms/reports? This points to an invalid parameter value in a procedure call, but I usually see this in forms.

    Date Help

    To continue with Andrzejeks answer, SYSDATE is a pseudo-column so you can include it directly in the query:WHERE TIME-Admission.FULLDATE BETWEEN ADD_MONTHS(SYSDATE,-6) AND SYSDATE

    ORACLE APEX question

    You can create links between databases through which normal queries can be run.

    FOR LOOP to go from top to bottom of the table in ORACLE???

    Oracle Views

    You could check in ALL_VIEWS for the view definition, or ask your system admin to check it for you. In SQL*Plus SET LONG 4000 SET PAGES 0 SELECT text FROM all_views WHERE view_name = '<VIEW NAME>'; From that you can determine which table(s) is/are affected and the WHERE clause that would...
