Multi-Rows from DUAL

Gerd VolbergApr 3 2007 — edited Nov 19 2010
I need an easy select from DUAL, which gives me more than one row.

e.g. 1000 rows or 4500 rows....


I know that one of the best solutions was something with an CONNECT BY PRIOR and a WHERE ROWNUM <= 1000 e.g.


But what was the complete statement?

thx 4 solutions

I think Quick SQL is the wrong place to execute your script:

About Quick SQL

Quick SQL provides a quick way to generate the SQL required to create a relational data model from an indented text document. This tool is designed to reduce the time and effort required to create SQL tables, triggers, and index structures. This tool is not designed to be a replacement for data modeling, it is simply a quick way to develop a script for simple tables and views. Once the SQL is generated it can be tweaked and expanded upon.

Use SQL Scripts instead.

PS:

Please change you display name into something readable:

How can I change my Display Name?

Thanks, I did it on sql script and it generated my model well and I was able to create an application, however, when I try to add data to my movie table for example, I get the following error:

ORA-01400: impossible d'insérer NULL dans ("NGUILMINIR2022"."ACTORS"."ACTORS_ID")

I imagine that my problem is at the ID level, indeed when I want to create a movie, I do not have enough to enter the Id and I imagine that I have no default values and auto increment so I tried to add a constraint and trigger in the script to fix the problem but it had no effect, maybe I did it wrong?

If you know how to help me I would be very grateful

A typical approach is to create a sequence (in APEX in the Object Browser)

and then select this sequence in the Page Designer as default value for this item.

Repeat this step for each primary key column in your model.

Hello Nicolas

You can also have SQL Developer Data Modeler create the sequences and the triggers for you.

If you double-click on a table in your relational model it will open the Table Properties dialog

Select the "Columns" item in the left-hand Panel, and then double-click on the primary key column:

This opens the column dialog.

Make sure that "Auto Increment", "Identity Column" and "Engineer" boxes are checked, and then select OK.

Click OK to exit the Table Properties dialog.

By right-clicking on the table in your model and selecting DDL preview, you should see the DDL for the sequence and the trigger.

You will need to check the "Auto Increment", "Identity Column" and "Engineer" boxes for all of the tables and then regenerate the table DDL.

Hope that helps

PS I noticed that the primary key of your movie table is named "Attribute_1" Are you sure that is what you want?

I manage to create sequence with the object browser but now, my problem is that I do not manage to select the sequence in page designer.

Among my pages generated automatically (interactive state or pannel) during the creation of my application, some allow me to modify an id element and to apply a default values of type sequence with the name of my sequence

detail of my sequence:

  • minvalue: 1
  • maxvalue: 9999
  • increment by 1
  • cycle N
  • order N
  • cache 0
  • lastnumber 1

However, once the page run and the application reloads the application and I try to create a new data in my table from this one the following error appears

ORA-06550: Line 1, column 44 : PLS-00201: identifier 'seq_genre.NEXTVAL' must be declared

so my question are:

  • why some page allow me to modify the default value and sequence when others don't
  • does my sequence are well made for primary_key
  • how to fix my identifier issue

This is no longer an Data Modeler issue.

Open a new thread in the APEX forum.
