I am trying to select all the values from multivalued data column. Values are separated with ý.
This query I wrote does exactly what I intended, but unfortunately I am working on 11g so I can't use CROSS APPLY. Any suggestions how to go around CROSS APPLY? Or any other ideas?
select REGEXP_SUBSTR (MFIELD, '([^ý]+)',1,l.lvl,NULL) AS item
FROM TABLE
CROSS APPLY
(
SELECT LEVEL AS lvl
FROM DUAL
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= REGEXP_COUNT( MFIELD, 'ý' )
)l;

I am trying to split data from a column into rows but I am facing this issue here.
When i run this query it splits the data fine but it is also returning NULL as an extra row too.
Here is the value I am trying to split ,162662163,90133140,163268955,169223426,169222899,
WITH CTE AS(
SELECT
RTRIM(LTRIM(PG2.MULTILIST11, ','), ',') ACCESS_BY_GROUPS
FROM AGILE.ITEM I
INNER JOIN AGILE.PAGE_TWO PG2 ON PG2.ID = I.ID
WHERE
ITEM_NUMBER IN --('313-000074',
('313-000090')
)
SELECT DISTINCT
REGEXP_SUBSTR(ACCESS_BY_GROUPS, '[^,]+', 1, column_value) ACCESS_BY_GROUPS
FROM CTE
CROSS JOIN TABLE(CAST(MULTISET(SELECT LEVEL FROM DUAL
CONNECT BY LEVEL <= REGEXP_COUNT(CTE.ACCESS_BY_GROUPS, ',') + 10
) AS sys.odcinumberlist))
I don't want to get that null value. I cannot apply that check out of the query because it will affect other column values too so I want it to be handled somewhere in the function. I hope someone can help.
It is because of leading and trailing commas.
One option is to begin from position 2 (see line #3) and limit number of values (line #5)
SQL> with test (col) as
2 (select ',162662163,90133140,163268955,169223426,169222899,' from dual)

Another is to remove leading and trailing comma first, and then split the rest into rows:
SQL> with test (col) as
2 (select ',162662163,90133140,163268955,169223426,169222899,' from dual),
3 temp as
4 -- remove leading and trailing comma first
5 (select ltrim(rtrim(col, ','), ',') col
6 from test
7 )
8 select regexp_substr(col, '[^,]+', 1, level) res
9 from temp
10 connect by level <= regexp_count(col, ',') + 1;

[EDIT - for more than a single row]
If there are more rows involved, code has to be changed. Note that there must be some kind of a unique identifier for every row (ID in my example).

I have the following problem.
I want to join two tables.
The first table has entries like the following:
T1
PK Info
1 one
2 two
3 three
The second table is build like this:
T2
PK FKT1
1 1,3
2 1,2,3
3 2
My Result should show the following
PK2 FKT1 InfoT1
1 1,3 One,Three
2 1,2,3 One,two,Three
3 2 Two
I just cant get an idea how to solve this.
Is this possible only using sql selects or is a function needed?
kind regards
It's not that difficult, but - as you were told, you'd rather NOT do that.

The query is not working for 3rd and 4th rows. How to fix this? Why is it not working?
Your query has invalid syntax as it has two FROM clauses one of which does not have a matching SELECT clause.
It also has:
CONNECT BY level < instr(MyColumn, 'Y', 1, level)
Which will not work when the string starts with a Y as LEVEL is 1 and INSTR( 'YYYY', 'Y', 1, 1 ) is 1 and then the filter is CONNECT BY 1 < 1 which is not true. You want to check that CONNECT BY INSTR( MyColumn, 'Y', 1, LEVEL ) > 0.
You also need another filter to check for the case when there are no Y characters as a hierarchical query will always return at least one row.
You can adapt your query to use a correlated sub-query:
SQL Fiddle
Oracle 11g R2 Schema Setup:
CREATE TABLE MyTable( MyColumn ) AS
SELECT 'NNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNN' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'NNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNN' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'YYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYY' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'YYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYNNNNNYYN' FROM DUAL UNION ALL
SELECT 'NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN' FROM DUAL
Query 1:
SELECT (
SELECT LISTAGG( INSTR( t.MyColumn, 'Y', 1, LEVEL ), ' ' )
WITHIN GROUP ( ORDER BY LEVEL )
FROM DUAL
WHERE INSTR( t.MyColumn, 'Y' ) > 0
CONNECT BY INSTR( t.MyColumn, 'Y', 1, LEVEL ) > 0
) AS Y_position
FROM Mytable t
Results:

when I select the table from Oracle, I want to handle one col'val :
eg:
'ab,cd,ef' to 'ef->cd->ab';
'AB,BC' to 'BC->AB';
'ACNN,BBCCAC' to 'BBCCAC->ACNN';
'BBBDC，DCCX，FFF' to 'FFF->DCCX->BBBDC'
We have two tasks. The first is to tokenize the original strings. This is quite easy with regular expressions (although there are more performant approaches if you are dealing with large volumes). The second task is to re-assemble the tokens in reverse order; we can use the 11gR2 LISTAGG() function for this:
with tokens as (
select distinct col1, regexp_substr(col1, '[^,]+', 1, level) as tkn, level as rn
from t23
connect by level <= regexp_count (col1, '[,]') +1
)
select col1
, listagg(tkn, '->')
within group (order by rn desc) as rev_col1
from tokens
group by col1
/
Here is a SQL Fiddle.
You can do it with a mix of string split and string aggregation.
Using:
REGEXP_SUBSTR : To split the comma delimited string into rows
LISTAGG : To aggregate the values
You can have a look at this article to understand how string split works http://lalitkumarb.wordpress.com/2015/03/04/split-comma-delimited-strings-in-a-table-using-oracle-sql/

In my table I want to see a list of unoccupied id numbers in a certain range.
For example there are 10 records in my table with id's: "2,3,4,5,10,12,16,18,21,22" and say that I want to see available ones between 1 and 25. So I want to see a list like:
1,6,7,89,11,13,14,15,17,19,20,23,24,25
How should I write my sql query?
Select the numbers form 1 to 25 and show only those that are not in your table
select n from
( select rownum n from dual connect by level <= 25)
where n not in (select id from table);
Let's say you a #numbers table with three numbers -
CREATE TABLE #numbers (num INT)
INSERT INTO #numbers (num)
SELECT 1
UNION
SELECT 3
UNION
SELECT 6
Now, you can use CTE to generate numbers recursively from 1-25 and deselect those which are in your #numbers table in the WHERE clause -
;WITH n(n) AS
(
SELECT 1
UNION ALL
SELECT n+1 FROM n WHERE n < 25
)
SELECT n FROM n
WHERE n NOT IN (select num from #numbers)
ORDER BY n
OPTION (MAXRECURSION 25);
You can try using the "NOT IN" clause:
select
u1.user_id + 1 as start
from users as u1
left outer join users as u2 on u1.user_id + 1 = u2.id
where
u2.id is null
see also SQL query to find Missing sequence numbers
You need LISTAGG to get the output in a single row.
