Get the last day of the monthThis query is similar to above but returns last day of current month. One thing worth noting is that itautomatically takes care of leap year. So if you have 29 days in Feb, it will return 29/2. Also similarto above query replace SYSDATE with any other date column/value to find last day of that particularmonth.

2.

Get the first day of the YearFirst day of year is always 1-Jan. This query can be use in stored procedure where you quickly wantfirst day of year for some calculation.

3.

Get the last day of the yearSimilar to above query. Instead of first day this query returns last day of current year.

4.

Get number of days in current monthNow this is useful. This query returns number of days in current month. You can change SYSDATEwith any date/value to know number of days in that month.

5.

Get number of days left in current month6.

Data dictionary queries

10.

Check if a table exists in the current database schemaA simple query that can be used to check if a table exists before you create it. This way you canmake your create table script rerunnable. Just replace table_name with actual table you want tocheck. This query will check if table exists for current user (from where the query is executed).

11.

Check if a column exists in a tableSimple query to check if a particular column exists in table. Useful when you tries to add newcolumn in table using ALTER TABLE statement, you might wanna check if column already existsbefore adding one.

12.

Showing the table structureThis query gives you the DDL statement for any table. Notice we have pass ‘TABLE’ as firstparameter. This query can be generalized to get DDL statement of any database object. Forexample to get DDL for a view just replace first argument with ‘VIEW’ and second with your viewname and so.

13.

FROM DUAL;

SELECT (TRUNC (SYSDATE+1) - SYSDATE) * 24 * 60 * 60 num_of_sec_leftFROM DUAL;

SELECT table_nameFROM user_tablesWHERE table_name = 'TABLE_NAME';

SELECT column_name AS FOUNDFROM user_tab_colsWHERE table_name = 'TABLE_NAME' AND column_name = 'COLUMN_NAME';

Get Oracle version19.

Store data case sensitive but to index it case insensitiveNow this ones tricky. Sometime you might querying database on some value independent of case.In your query you might do UPPER(..) = UPPER(..) on both sides to make it case insensitive. Nowin such cases, you might want to make your index case insensitive so that they don’t occupy morespace. Feel free to experiment with this one.

20.

Resizing Tablespace without adding datafileYet another DDL query to resize table space.

21.

Checking autoextend on/off for TablespacesQuery to check if autoextend is on or off for a given tablespace.

Here we are converting‘AA,BB,CC,DD,EE,FF’ string to table containing AA, BB, CC etc. as each row. Once you have thistable you can join it with other table to quickly do some useful stuffs.

You can use USER_VIEWS to see the available views with the SCHEMA.Describe the view and see the columns..Use the column name to get the details

I have a requirement.I have 5 attribute columns corresponding 5 days of the week from Monday to Friday.The attribute values can be Yes or No.If Wednesday and Friday are set to Yes, I need a query to retrieve all the wednesdays and Fridaysfrom a given date to sysdate.Similarly, If Monday, Wednesday and Thursday are set to Yes, I need all the Mondays, Wednesdaysand Thursday from a given date(passed as parameter) to sysdate.Could anyone please help me in writing this query?

for David’s question on April 17th..I’m sure this could probably be cleaned up some more andI see that the Friday portion of this returns a friday before 01/01/2012 but this is a start…

Hello and thanks Viral, I think you can include a query which return number of columns result of adynamic query, these usefull when you send a script inside a function and you don’t know exactlyhow many columns you obtain.Once again thaks for your effort.
