I am using Oracle 10g and I have problems with Open for Query_string.



that query string is a dynamic query, it has more than 7000 charcaters.



how can I open a cursor with varchar2 (which in 10g only accepts max length of 4000)? At the moment I tried using CLOB instead of but open..for doesnt accept it.



In the header is declared: TYPE tref IS REF CURSOR;



DECLARE

    SQL CLOB;    

BEGIN

   SQL := '...';



   OPEN tref FOR SQL

END


the version 10g not accepted is:



DECLARE

    SQL VARCHAR2(8000);    

BEGIN

   SQL := '...';



   OPEN tref FOR SQL

END


Thx

  • Even in Oracle 10, a PL/SQL variable can hold up to 32767 bytes: Quote from the manual "The VARCHAR2 datatype takes a required parameter that specifies a maximum size up to 32767 bytes"

  • anyway calling from .net to the store procedure says me the error of max length. obviouslly using 12g is no problem.

Ok guys



I got the solution, when you have CLOB, you can use dbms_lob.substr...



OPEN p_ref FOR dbms_lob.substr( SQL, 32000, 1 );

What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

Image
0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?
