Oracle Report Question
I have this another query --------
select ds.donor_id,ds.country_of_ travel,
ds.date_left_area,
ds.amt_time_spent,
ds.travel_method,
ds.staff_states,
ds.comments,'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as one,
'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as two
from ds_malaria_travel_history ds
where ds.question_id = '1008'
and ds.donor_id IN
(SELECT donor_id FROM temp_mobile_donors)
order by ds.date_left_area, ds.country_of_travel
-------------------------
This prints only if donor exists in the table. Here I have only one table. So how can I have the hist join? How can I do the methods you earlier told
SELECT dc.country_id,
dc.description,
dt.question_id,
hist.years,
hist.amt_time_spent,
hist.donor_id,
CASE
WHEN (hist.donor_id IS NULL)
THEN 'No donors found'
ELSE hist.donor_id
END donor_exists
FROM ds_travel_countries dt,
ds_countries dc,
(SELECT ds.years,
ds.amt_time_spent,
ds.question_id,
ds.country_id,
ds.donor_id
FROM ds_travel_history ds
WHERE ds.donor_id IN
(SELECT donor_id FROM temp_mobile_donors)
) hist
WHERE dt.question_id = '1010'
AND dc.country_id = dt.country_id
AND dt.question_id = hist.question_id(+)
AND dt.country_id = hist.country_id(+)

Need to modify this query to print blank if donor does not exist and print data if donor exists.

DONOR_ID
DN00566342 -- only this donor has data in the ds_malaria_travel_history table.
DN20235147 -- No data. But need to print blank sheet with all boiler plates and header info but no data in the columns.
The query you have posted is not working. I am getting totally different donors.

So ... it means your external table is the malaria one. You should have started with this ...
Do the oposite - outer join the malaria table.

I tried outer join on malaria table. But it still gives me one page for the existing donor. Does not give me a blank page with headers for non existing donor.
You MUST outer join all of the columns in the outer-joined table. This is a basic SQL. If it is hard for you to use Oracle syntax, then use the ANSI one with the "OUTER JOIN" keyword. And of course, the CASE statement is no longer doing what was intent to do.
ASKER
can u tell me how to use ANSI one with the "OUTER JOIN" keyword?

I tried using
SELECT ds.donor_id,
ds.country_of_travel,
ds.date_left_area,
ds.amt_time_spent,
ds.travel_method,
ds.staff_states,
ds.comments,
'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as one,
'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as two
FROM temp_mobile_donors temp
RIGHT OUTER JOIN ds_malaria_travel_history ds ON (ds.donor_id = temp.donor_id)
WHERE ds.question_id = '1008'
ORDER BY ds.date_left_area, ds.country_of_travel
-------------------
This gives me every one. But earlier when I tried using
SELECT ds.donor_id,
ds.country_of_travel,
ds.date_left_area,
ds.amt_time_spent,
ds.travel_method,
ds.staff_states,
ds.comments,
'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as one,
'Y' || ' ' || ' N' as two,
CASE
WHEN temp.donor_id IS NULL
THEN 'donor not in temp'
ELSE 'donor in temp'
END is_donor_in_temp
FROM ds_malaria_travel_history ds,
temp_mobile_donors temp
WHERE ds.question_id(+) = '1008'
AND ds.donor_id(+) = temp.donor_id
ORDER BY ds.date_left_area, ds.country_of_travel
I got 2 lines for donor that is in the table and blank line for the donor that does not exist.But the problem is I am not able to print 2 different pages. One for each donor. I tried setting max page to 1 and also break to Yes. But it does not work.

You can see the first donor has data. Second donor has no data but only blank lines. This is what I want, but printing on different pages. i.e page break. I tried max of 1 page and also page break yes on frame. But does not work.
