Hi,

I am migrating my application from English to Azeri-Latin,
There are altogether 7 different characters in then in English.
Of which i am able to find support for 6.
The area of my concern is alphabet 'Ə'

The settings that i am using are as follows,
1) Advanced tab in Regional Setting of my Windows Server = Azeri-Latin
2) Database Server Characterset = AL32UTF8
3) Database Server NChar_Characterset = AL16UTF16
4) Oracle Client NLS_LANG = "TURKISH_TURKEY.WE8ISO8859P9"

My application is using two Major Technology, EJB(for Host Application Server) & Visual C++ & Visual Basics 6.0(for Branch Application Server)

Host is communicating with database through JDBC, whereas,
Branch is communicating with database through ODBC 10g driver.

Problem,
1) While retrieving and inserting data string through JDBC all the character of Azeri-Latin are supported, including 'Ə'
2) But in case of OBDC, while inserting and retreiving 'Ə' i get '?'

What specific setting should i do to support a Unicode Character 'Ə'

Thanks & Regards,
Pratik.

.. although your requirement seems a little odd.

Are you perhaps looking to count distinct values?

Hi,

There's no need to use daul: all the values you need are in emp:

SELECT	COUNT (empno)		AS empno_cnt
,	COUNT (mgr)		AS mgr_cnt
,	COUNT ( CASE
		    WHEN  sal > 2000
		    THEN  sal
		    ELSE  NULL		-- This is the default, so you don't really need this line
		END
	      )			AS sal_2000_cnt
FROM	emp;

The tricky part is counting all emps and mgrs, but counting only some sals.
A WHERE clause applies to the whole query, so we don't want that.
A CASE statement can use the same kinds of conditions as a WHERE clause, but they only apply to one column, which is exactly what we want here.

Hesh

hope this is usefull..............

select empno,mgr,
(select count(sal) from emp  where sal>2000)  as sal
from(
select count(empno) as empno,count(mgr) as mgr from emp )

Thanks for your immediate Reply...
I have been converting procedure SQL SERVER to Oracle..
They used temporary table .. But i want to avoid TEMP table

set @invent=(select count(inventoryReport)as invent from AdDashRoleProfile where inventoryReport != 1 and roleid=@roleid)    
set @development=(select count(development)as develop from AdDashRoleProfile where development != 1 and roleid=@roleid)    
set @Execution=(select count(Execution)as Exe from AdDashRoleProfile where Execution != 1 and roleid=@roleid)    
insert into @tempRole(inventoryReport,development,Execution) values(@invent,@development,@Execution)    
select * from @tempRole

So I changed my query...

SELECT (SELECT COUNT (inventoryreport)
          FROM addashroleprofile
         WHERE inventoryreport  != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid) inventoryreport,
       (SELECT COUNT (development)
          FROM addashroleprofile
         WHERE development  != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid) development,
       (SELECT COUNT (execution)
          FROM addashroleprofile
         WHERE execution  != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid) execution
  FROM DUAL;

Your solutions are good..
How can I apply it..???

Like this:

SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN inventoryreport != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid THEN inventoryreport END) inventoryreport
      ,COUNT(CASE WHEN development != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid THEN development END) development
      ,COUNT(CASE WHEN execution != 1 AND roleid = v_roleid THEN execution END) execution
FROM addashroleprofile;

Thank you... It works.. :):)

Just curious. Why not:

SELECT COUNT(CASE WHEN inventoryreport != 1 THEN inventoryreport END) inventoryreport,
       COUNT(CASE WHEN development != 1 THEN development END) development,
      COUNT(CASE WHEN execution != 1 THEN execution END) execution
FROM addashroleprofile
WHERE roleid = v_roleid;

Yeah, did spot that myself after, but was a little busy to come back and edit. ;)

Aketi Jyuuzou

I arranged yours B-)
We can use NullIF

select count(nullIF(inventoryreport,1)) inventoryreport
       count(nullIF(development,1)) development
       count(nullIF(execution,1)) execution
  from addashroleprofile
 WHERE roleid = v_roleid;
