My question is about Oracle SQL Developer IDE.
I remember there was an option in Query Results pane to drag and drop the column names into Worksheet. So you don't need to type the column name manually.
Today, I see that the option is used to move columns (as shown in the picture).
Is there an option to bring back column name drag-drop?
Note: There is a right option to copy column name but drag-drop is much more convenient.

is there a way to limit the number of rows while exporting or imported data in DBeaver?
In my case I have a remote DB2 and I need to import SOME rows of a specific table into a local MySQL DB that I have.
Is there a way to do that?
Thanks
Limiting the number of rows being exported only makes sense if the export wizard knows what rows (e.g. order) to export. Therefore it only makes sense to export the resultset of a query, as opposed to export the actual table with a limiting factor.
This is how you can do this in DBeaver:
Issue a query like SELECT * FROM my_table ORDER BY mycolumn LIMIT n.
Replace n with any integer you like obviously. You may also add
DESC after mycolumn, if only the most recent rows make sense to you.
Run the query.
In the pane with the resultset, locate the button
tooltipped "Export result set to fil or another table". It looks
like a tray with an upward arrow. In DBeaver 7.2.2, it is just left
of the split number and cog buttons.
Run that wizard, selecting "SQL" target type (Export to SQL INSERT statements)
Click Next, and configure any other export preferences (you may leave default too).
The file being exported should content you.
Crystal Reports doesn't seem to have a SQL Expression Editor. I know the Editor is only available when I select tables from source, so how can I add my own SQL Expression to my report?
To write your own SQL expression within Crystal, go to the Field Explorer on the right side of the Design view. Right click Database Fields and select Database Expert.
Pick the matching connection you want to use, and select Add Command
From here on out, Crystal will treat your statement as if it was another existing table.
I'm using Tableau. So, instead of giving the [Column_name], Is it possible to give [Column_number] in column shelf?
- Hariharasudhan. R.
No -- for good reason.
Think of the data source as a template for a potential SQL (or MDX or TQL) query; specifying tables, joins, unions and possibly some where/having clauses for data source filters.
The actual SQL generated for any particular view will be an (optimized) query that only selects columns that are actually needed for that particular view, adds where/having clauses based on the filters being used etc.
So a column doesn't have a fixed number. The same column may be the first field selected in one situation, the last field in another situation, and left off completely in another.
If you want to change the name of column shelf:
Create a duplicate of variable and change original with duplicates and assign name as your wish by right-click on Edit Aliases and change as per your requirement.
Go to Data Source
On the middle right corner check on Show aliases
Go to column and right click on it. Go to Rename
Is there any alternative way to copy the data from Excel sheet and paste it into a table using Oracle SQL Developer!?
For now I am using (PL/SQL Developer) by writing (for update) at the end of the select statement, Ex:
Select * from ABD
for update
Then paste the columns from Excel to the table...
Regards
Adel
It's not exactly copy and paste but you can import data from Excel using Oracle SQL Developer.
Navigate to the table you want to import the data into and click on the Data tab.
After clicking on the data tab you should notice a drop down that says Actions...
Click Actions... and select the bottom option Import Data...
Then just follow the wizard to select the correct sheet, and columns that you want to import.
EDIT : To view the data tab :
Select the SCHEMA where your table is created.(Choose from the Connections tab on the left pane).
Right click on the SCHEMA and choose SCHEMA BROWSER.
Select your table from the list (by giving your schema).
Now you will see the DATA tab.
Click on Actions and Import Data...
None of these options show up for me. The way to paste data from Excel is as follows:
Add an extra column to the left of your spreadsheet data (if you
don't have row numbers showing in PL/SQL Developer you may not have
to have an extra empty column to the left).
Copy the rows of data from your spreadsheet including the empty
column.
In PL/SQL Developer, open your table in edit mode. You can
right-click the table name in the object browser and select Edit Data
or write your own select statement that includes the rowid and click
the lock icon. Be sure your columns are ordered the same as in your
spreadsheet.
Here's the part that took me forever to figure out: click on the left
side of the first empty row to highlight it. It will not work if you
don't have the first empty row highlighted.
Paste as usual using Ctrl+V or right-click Paste.
I couldn't find this info anywhere when I needed it, so I wanted to be sure to post it.
You may directly right-click on the table name - that also shows the "Import Data.." option.Then you can follow few simple steps & succeed.
Do anyone know how to import a new table with data from excel?
Click on "Tables" in "Connections" window, choose "Import data ...", follow the wizard and you will be asked for name for new table.
For PLSQL version 9.0.0.1601
From the context menu of the Table, choose "Edit Data"
Insert or edit the data

I'm working with SSRS for the first time. When adding a table to a report, is there any way to add all fields of a dataset to it at once or does it have to be done individually? Drag & drop, insert column -> right is a pain when there are a lot of fields that are being displayed.
It's a bit of a workaround, but the "Add new report" wizard automatically creates a table with the specified columns and groups from your given dataset. I don't believe there's a way to trigger this functionality from within an existing report, but you could create a "sacrificial" report to get what you're looking for - run through the wizard, generate the table, and copy / paste it into your original report. As long as your datasets are the same, it should work just fine...
Hope this helps.
I have a similar problem as the op and am new to SSRS/BIDS. And, I am updating a previously created report which (for me) is too complex to just quickly re-create using the "wizard generation" as the datasource is a web service (with code-generated web service parameters, lots of calc'd datasource fields, etc). It is faster to just copy the .rdl, delete all, and create the table manually.
I thought I would add that (only a little better than op's method, but nonetheless it is time-saving) you can just drag and drop to populate columns w/o the "right click > insert column > right". Just drag the dataset field to the place you want it in the table and BIDS/SSRS will automatically insert a new column. It also helps to drag the latter columns first (i.e. always inserting a previous column) so you don't have to scroll to the right all the time.
I was looking for the similar thing and I have figured this out. Open your report in Report Builder 3.0 which is a free BI tool by Microsoft. Go to Insert > Table wizzard. Then just follow the wizard steps to generate auto columns. Save and reopen the file in your visual studio, file will refresh itself.

#Kevin Fisher actually there is no need a workaround. There is way to do this out of the box of Report Builder 3. Open your existing favorite report template. on the tool bar, click on INSERT tab, look for TABLE icon, click on the down-ward arrow at the bottom of the TABLE icon, then choose TABLE WIZARD. Then I guess you know what to do from here. -hope this help.
I agree that there is no way to bring all of the columns over from the data set to a table easily. But I came up with a method that helped me:
Insert a blank table (this usually gives you 3 columns). Then insert columns to the right of the table (right click, Insert Column, To the Right), as many times as you need in order for it to equal the number of columns in your data set.
Once you have all the blank columns created in your table, click inside a table cell box and use the drop-down to select the field. This has the added benefit of allowing you to get the fields in the correct order, since I've noticed that the field names in the dataset don't always appear in the same order as the SQL stored proc output.
