Hai
I need a small help in writting the Oracle query.
I wrote the Oracle Query as below to retrieve the column name and Data type for the particular Username and table name
******************************************
SELECT COLUMN_NAME,DATA_TYPE FROM ALL_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE
OWNER='username' AND TABLE_NAME='tablename'
*******************************************************
I am getting the result properly if i have less than 25 columns.
But if i have more than 70 columns in my table, for the above query the column names were displayed randomely, not in the order.
I want to retrieve the column names in the Order.
Is there any alternate query to display the column names in the order if the tables has too many columns
Please help me
thanks
Dhinakaran

Dear Dhinakaran,
Whenever you pass the given query
SELECT COLUMN_NAME,DATA_TYPE FROM ALL_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE
OWNER='username' AND TABLE_NAME='tablename'
it will going to show records in order of COLUMN_NAME,
which is of varchar datatype resulting in appearing random COLUMN_ID
to you.
User ORDER BY COLUMN_ID clause in your select query to retrieve in order.
