scenario where need to find records where a particular id has 2 rows for code='X' and one row for code='Y' combined together.

So from the following data, only id 1 should be returned.

ID CODE
-------
1 X
1 X
1 Y

2 X
2 Y

3 X
3 X
3 Y
3 Y

4 X
4 X

5 Y

This is inefficient, but is suitable for you?

1_QUESTION_ID:4274185613870#69744480450437
;-) nice try

what about this :
with abc as
(select 1 Id, cast(null as number) p_id, 10 health from dual
union all
select 2,1,20 from dual
union all
select 3,1,30 from dual
union all
select 4,2,15 from dual
)
/* Main */
select id,p_id,health,l "LEVEL", calc_health from (
select r,id,p_id,health,l, sum(ch) over (partition by id) calc_health,cp from (
select rownum r,id, p_id, health, level l, connect_by_root health ch, connect_by_root p_id cp
from abc t1
connect by prior id=p_id))
where cp is null
order by r
/

        ID       P_ID     HEALTH      LEVEL CALC_HEALTH
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- -----------
         1                    10          1          10
         2          1         20          2          30
         4          2         15          3          45
         3          1         30          2          40

this will not work in 9i
ushitaki

In query that I wrote, a:b is 1:n is assumed to be a precondition.
In such assumption, it is possible to be written a little more simple,
and not necessary to be applied 'connect by' twice.

thus,

/* Main */
select id,p_id,health
    ,max(lvl) as "LEVEL"
    ,sum(calc_health) calc_health
from (
    select
        connect_by_root(id) id
        ,connect_by_root(p_id) p_id
        ,connect_by_root(health) health
        ,level lvl
        ,health calc_health
    from abc
    connect by prior p_id = id
)
group by id,p_id,health
;

_(This works over Oracle10g, 'cause of connect_by_root function)

sounds good...

Well yes but you are now traversing and summing the entire hierarchy from the child nodes upwards.

I don't think this is going to be very useful or efficient if you want to start at a given parent node and traverse down the hierarchy.

Hi,

This will work is 9i also.

SQL> SELECT * FROM t;

        ID       P_ID     HEALTH

         3          1         30

Sorry, it is a little more complicated.

Let say I got
Id ----- p_id ----- health ----- multi
1 ------ null ------ 10 --------- 2
2 --------1 --------- 0 ---------- 5
3 -------- 1 --------- 0 ---------3
4 -------- 2 ----------0 ---------4

and i need to get this
Id----p_id----health----level----multi ------ calc
-------------------------------------------------------
1 ----null----10---------1--------2------------2*10
2 ----1-------0 ----------2---------5-----------20*5
3 ----1-------0 ----------2---------3-----------20*3
4 ----2-------0 ----------3---------4-----------100*4

the calcolation i need to do is much more complecated, but the base of the calcolation is the calc field of the father.

Thank you
C.

Did you read the AskTom link yet?
Laurent Schneider
out of the solutions given above, you could try 
with abc as
(select 1 Id, cast(null as number) p_id, 10 health, 2 multi from dual
union all
select 2,1,0,5 from dual
union all
select 3,1,0,3 from dual
union all
select 4,2,0,4 from dual
)
/* Main */
select id,p_id,health,max(lvl) "LEVEL",multi,max(xhealth)*exp(sum(ln(xmulti))) calc
from (
    select
        connect_by_root id id
        ,connect_by_root p_id p_id
        ,connect_by_root health health
        ,connect_by_root multi multi
        ,level lvl
        ,health xhealth
        ,multi xmulti
    from abc
    connect by prior p_id = id
)
group by id,p_id,multi,health
order by id
/
        ID       P_ID     HEALTH      LEVEL      MULTI       CALC
---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ---------- ----------
         1                    10          1          2         20
         2          1          0          2          5        100
         3          1          0          2          3         60
         4          2          0          3          4        400

"Not sure what does 0 Health mean" In most gaming contexts, which this seems to be, it usually means dead :-)
