Hi, I am also doing migration from oracle 7.3 to mysql 4.0 classic. May i know how to handle Oracle Views, stored procedures/triggers in MySQL 4.0 ?. May i know how to create database, table space, roll back segments, users, allocating tables to table spaces (as we do in oracle) in mysql 4.0 with out innodb?. Can we write into multiple tables in mysql 4.0?. If so how?. I have a backup to my database, after that i added some new columns to some tables and created one more new table. Now, i want to restore the old data without distrubing the new changes. Could you please help me how to do this in mysql?. Thanks, Narasimha

I've been in the Telecommunications industry for more than 2 years now. I hope that I can provide feedback any questions regarding DB knowledge/query's in this area for this list. Now to the point. I'm researching how to do another query that I 've in the Oracle DB on pl/SQL. The task is to provide a report based on the call origin. We get last 4 numbers of each call origin and from that we can determine where the call was originated (in spain: 6% is mobile, 913% is madrid, and so on). My mission is to create something that will use the less possible resources for each query. This is IMDTAB: +------------+-----------+--------------+--------+--------------------+----- ---+--------+ | IMDFLL | IMD906 | IMDTER | IMDTAR | IMDDUR | IMDORI | IMDCLI | +------------+-----------+--------------+--------+--------------------+----- ---+--------+ | 2004-08-01 | 80xxxxxxx | 913xxxxxx | R | 2.283333333333330 | 6277 | 01 | | 2004-08-01 | 80xxxxxxx | 913xxxxxx | R | 2.650000000000000 | 6290 | 01 | | 2004-08-01 | 80xxxxxxx | 913xxxxxx | R | 8.316666666666670 | 9710 | 01 | In Oracle using PL /Sql I 've a select that looks like this: SELECT GRUPO_ORI(IMDTAB.IMDORI) AS ORI, COUNT(IMDTAB.IMDORI) AS CLL FROM IMDTAB WHERE (IMDTAB.IMRCLI =01 AND (IMD906=80xxxxxxx )) AND (IMDTAB.IMDFLL = '@date1' ) GROUP BY IMDTAB.IMDCLI,GRUPO_ORI(IMDTAB.IMDORI) And this is the GRUPO_ORI function: FUNCTION "GRUPO_ORI" (ORI IN IMDTAB.IMDORI%TYPE) RETURN VARCHAR2 IS STRORI CLITAB.CLIPOB%TYPE; GRPORI CLITAB.CLIPOB%TYPE; BEGIN STRORI := To_Char(ORI); GRPORI := SUBSTR(STRORI,1,1); IF GRPORI = '6' THEN return GRPORI; END IF; GRPORI := SUBSTR(STRORI,1,2); IF GRPORI = '91' OR GRPORI = '93' THEN return GRPORI; END IF; GRPORI := SUBSTR(STRORI,1,3); IF GRPORI = '920' OR GRPORI = '921' OR GRPORI = '922' OR GRPORI = '923' OR GRPORI = '924' OR GRPORI = '925' OR GRPORI = '926' OR GRPORI = '927' OR GRPORI = '928' OR GRPORI = '941' OR GRPORI = '942' OR GRPORI = '943' OR GRPORI = '945' OR GRPORI = '947' OR GRPORI = '948' OR GRPORI = '949' OR GRPORI = '950' OR GRPORI = '953' OR GRPORI = '956' OR GRPORI = '957' OR GRPORI = '958' OR GRPORI = '959' OR GRPORI = '964' OR GRPORI = '967' OR GRPORI = '968' OR GRPORI = '969' OR GRPORI = '971' OR GRPORI = '972' OR GRPORI = '973' OR GRPORI = '974' OR GRPORI = '975' OR GRPORI = '976' OR GRPORI = '977' OR GRPORI = '978' OR GRPORI = '979' OR GRPORI = '980' OR GRPORI = '981' OR GRPORI = '982' OR GRPORI = '983' OR GRPORI = '986' OR GRPORI = '986' OR GRPORI = '987' OR GRPORI = '988' THEN return GRPORI; END IF; return 'Another'; END GRUPO_ORI; I was thinking in doing this by query, striping the IMDORI to 3 numbers, but I 've also as seen in the code copied above also 1 number, and 2 numbers zone identifiers. Also I can build a table with this instead of doing all the IF's, and join depending on the starting numbers, but looks rather complicated and I think the query might use a lot of DB power (and as described, I want to use the less possible resources taking in account this is a CALL BY CALL table with ***lots*** of rows) So what do you think guys is the best way to go ?
