James: I have been trying to do something similar. One question. If the
table on which I want to run the sql query is on a different database,
what do I have to do within Remedy so it can connect to a table in that
database.
Thanks

Hello Victor;
I don't know that this is what you're looking for, but I run a series of sql
queries in a single escalation to populate a 'current state' kinda form--I'm
using one query per field; might not be the most effective way in the world,
but it works.
This has MS SQL date conversions in--oracle is different and a bit more cryptic
(IMO--I've got those around somewhere if you need 'em):
Here's a Set Fields example that works just fine:
----
Read Value for Field From: SQL
SQL Command:
SELECT COUNT(1) FROM Your_Form_Name WHERE (Create_Date >= DATEDIFF(s,
'19700101', DATEADD(mm,-30,getdate()))) AND (rb_TicketType = 5)
If No Requests Match: Set fields to NULL
If Multiple Records Match: Use first matching
Fields:
Name: cntTiks
Value: $1$
----
...there's no reason in the world that you couldn't make a set fields with an
sql statement like:
SELECT thing1, thing2, thing3, ... ,thingN FROM Your_Form WHERE Field_name =
'char_value' OR Field_Name2 > 84600
(or whatever--could do joins and unions against multiple forms if necessary)
..and then the Names/values in the 'Fields' section of the set fields is like:
Name: Field1 Value: $1$
Name: Field2 Value: $2$
Name: Field3 Value: $3$
:
:
Name: FieldN Value: $N$
When you're choosing a value for the field, the drop-down list will give you an
option to choose a value x from the 'SQL Result Column,' where x is a number
between 1 and N (the number of fields you're pulling in your select statement).
Erm. For whatever it's worth.

Subject: Populating Table field with sql query result
Hello Listers,
It is possible to populate a table field with the result from an sql
query?
Any idea how this could be done?
Victor
