Hi
I have 2 tables Table1 and Table2 as below

Table1 Table2
col1 col2 col1 col21 col31 col22 col32
1 xx 1 A 0 AA null
2 yy 1 B 0 BB null
3 zz 1 C 0 CC null
1 0 X null XX
1 0 Y null YY

now on joining 2 tables, i want the output as below

Table1.Col1 Table1.col2 Table2.col21 Table2.col31 Table2.col22 Table2.col32
1 xx A X AA XX
1 XX B Y BB YY
1 XX C null CC null

Am not sure whether join is to be used or what? Is there any way i can get the output like this. Table2 will have many other rows takking the col1 of Table1 as primary key.

Naina

I can't understand your question,where are separated data of Table1 and Table2?

I Love T-SQL
"Don't torture yourself,let the life to do it for you."
If my post helps you kindly save my time by voting my post.

The first table Table1 has a primary key and the foreign key is the column in the second table Table2

Now table 2 has the data like this

foreignkey col1 col2 col3 col4
1 naina 1 null null
1 karri 2 null null
1 xxxxx 3 null null
1 null null aaaa 1
1 null null bbbb 2

now i need the output to be like this

primarykey col1 col2 col3 col4
1 naina 1 aaaa 1
1 karri 2 bbbb 2

1 xxxxx 3 null null

it means that the first columns with null data should be replaced with the last columns with data for that particular primary key value

What you posted as a table is not aligned well. A Join can be done this way

Table1

ID    Name         ID_Number
==============================
1     Vuyiswa      810945212121
2     nainakarri   817454212121

Table2

ID    Name         ID_Number       Date_Added
=============================================
1     Vuyiswa      810945212121    2009-09-09
2     nainakarri   867454212121    2009-09-10
2     James        847454212121    2009-09-11
2     Daniel       837454212121    2009-09-12

Now to run a Join for this two tables you do something like this

SELECT * FROM TABLE1 T1
INNER JOIN  TABLE2 T2
ON T1.ID_NUMBER = T2.ID_NUMBER

as you can see i have used a "*" that means you have to select what ever columns you want.

Hope this Helps

If table2 has a primary key of col1 of table1 what is that column called in table2, is it col21? If so, then this should do it:

select Table1.Col1, Table1.col2, Table2.col21, Table2.col31, Table2.col22, Table2.col32
from Table1 inner join Table2 on Table1.Col1 = Table2.Col21

You should really read up on joins though, this[^] explains them nicely.

ok den tel me steps..

the problem is :

WHERE ( Reporting_To = PEAP_SelectEmpAppraiser.AppraiserID) and
nvl( Appraiser , '') = '' and emp_code not in
( select EmployeeID collate database_default from PEAP_SelectEmployeesByApr);

here After the employeeid from keyword is missing its saying...

here 'collate database_default' is there in between of employeeid and from keyword..

the SQL query is working with this..

but i doubt is there any specific format to be used for 'collate database_default'?

but why we need "collate database_default " here ?

if i remove am getting another error like :

PL/SQL: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

not able to find out the temporary table 'PEAP_SelectEmployeesByApr'

it is Difficult to help you.but your query is not complicated. try to run this separately before using them in sp, if they can run then they can run in a Sp.
