PL/SQL :: Aligning / Formatting Records In Text File
Feb 26, 2013
I have a query then I write it to a text file using utl_file. However, I'm having some trouble formatting the data itself on the text file. =(
How would I align these records against its header considering the length of the Name/subscriber no. column which is not constant. Would LPAD work?
ID Name Subscriber No

How to make the multiple lines of character in single line. Below is the example where i am getting the value when we export the data from the database table.
----------------------
Welcome Aboard customer contact based on Account activation.
The current selection criteria for Welcome Aboard is based at the service level. Therefore, each time a customer connects a service, Welcome Aboard material is mailed to the customer. This is causing the following problems;
Customer complaints. If a service or a number of services are connected on a particular day, it will result in (ie except for some minor exclusions) a single Welcome Aboard pack being sent to each individual customer. As you can expect for corporate accounts, they receive a high volume of this material. Other problems occur when, service/s are deactivated and reactivated, each time a Welcome aboard pack will be distributed.
High costs to Telstra. Each MNET service connected may produce a Welcome aboard pack. This volume of material currently costs Telstra over $500,000 per quarter for Welcome Aboard alone.
------------------------------
here is what i want to the above data to export:

I need to export large number of records from select into the text file. It's about 2milion records.I can do it by PLSQL (see below) where executing of process takes time too much. How to export to text file faster?
DECLARE
fileid UTL_FILE.file_type;
BEGIN
fileid := UTL_FILE.fopen ('VRS_CEM', 'cust.txt', 'W');
UTL_FILE.put ( fileid, 'IMSI|MSISDN|CONTRACT');
UTL_FILE.NEW_LINE(fileid);

CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE A516907.proc_data_T_DTIA_TS_ADDR
is cursor CSR1 IS SELECT * FROM T_DTIA_TS_ADDR ;
v_file UTL_FILE.FILE_TYPE ;
BEGIN
v_file := UTL_FILE.FOPEN( 'DATA_PUMP_DIR' , 'T_DTIA_TS_ADDR.txt','w',32767);
FOR CS1 IN CSR1
[Code]....
The procedure above is dynamically generated. It's simple enough in that I am calling "the parent procedure" by passing the table name in. After this the procedure for creating the output data file for that table is generated and that's what we have above. I am doing this to load data into DB2.
What I need is to be able to generate the output such that if the column is of type varchar, char (anything non numeric) then the data should have " around it. If the data is of type number it should not have ".
I suppose I could use something as follows in lieu of the procedure above
Declare
cursor c1 is select column_name, data_type from user_tab_Cols where table_name = 'Table Name here';
-- I would like to know how to use the utl_file.put_line
-- where if the column data type is varchar 2
-- I could get ' ||"|| CS1.TS_ADDR_TY_CD||" || '
-- and if it's a number -- || CS1.CB_TS_DTIS_ID ||

I have for example two text items(number of records to display is set to 9). What I want is when i go to studentprofile block, it should automatically shows his subjects that are already taken up. the first text item is for 1st semester subjects and the other for 2nd semester.
here is the structure of my subjsec table:
ID number(1)
subj_code varchar2(10)
day varchar2(10)
and for subjects table:
subj_code varchar2(10)
description varchar2(50)
units number(1)
semester varchar2(10)
I restricted subjects that are in 1st sem. So i did something like this in my
DECLARE
CURSOR studgrade_cur IS
SELECT g.stud_id, g.grade, g.subj_code, s.description, s.units, s.semester
FROM studgrades g , subjects s
WHERE g.subj_code = s.subj_code
AND g.stud_id = :Studentprofile.student_id;

I want to load data to a table and from a simple file text, using a Vb.net application which will connect to a oracle 10g , or a SqlServer or a MySql database, depending the params.
When i connect to a SqlServer Database i use the sql command "BULK INSERT CODPOSTAL2 FROM file.txt with( DATAFILETYPE = 'char',FIELDTERMINATOR = ';', ROWTERMINATOR = '
')"m" and it works fine.
With a DB Mysql i use "LOAD DATA INFILE file.txt INTO TABLE CODPOSTAL2 FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';''" and also works.
My problem is with Oracle. I tried the same example as MySql, but it gaves the error "wrong" ou "unknown command". I also tried in Sql*Plus but it seems to not recognised the command "LOAD".
Another thing, i can't use the Oracle Loader, it must be like this.

We are receiving data from our upstream through text file, they are extracting that text file from their oracle table.In the table in ename colmn some names are having the special character like
Chng
OReilly
We are loading the data from that text file into our oracle tables and the names are loading as it is.Now we are extracting data as text file from our tables which is loaded from or upstream,then the special character is changing as the names are changing as Chng OReilly. We are loading the data from the text file into our tables and the names are loading as
Chng OReilly and i tried to replace the special character with while loading but it is loading as .If I try to change the character with '(Apostrophe) while loading it is changing.
The data type of the column is VARCHAR2(20)
NLS_CHARACTERSET is UTF8

I have a report that runs fine if I run it from the developer whether to preview or to file. The users are running this report from an Oracle Forms app and have a drop down for the destination format. If they run it to PDF for example, the report runs fine. If they run it to TXT132, TXT180, or TXT they get a "REP-1219 'FIELD_NAME' has no size -- length or width is zero".
Of course I am unable to get into the test application right now and as I mentioned above, I am unable to duplicate the error when I run the report from the developer. I am not sure why I would get a REP-1219 only when running to a Text file.

I am trying to write the Turkey character stored in the table in VARCHAR2 to Unix file. But when the text is written to the unix, the characters are coming as junk.
The output of the file it is writing is as below after the execution
Fis Içe Aktarma Olusturuldu Header
Fis Içe Aktarma Olusturuldu
Fiş İçe Aktarma Oluşturuldu
Instead I expect the chararecter to be as "Fiş İçe Aktarma Oluşturuldu Header" which when converted to English will show as "Created Import Plug Header".
DROP TABLE TEST_JUNK_CHAR
/
CREATE TABLE TEST_JUNK_CHAR (primary_description VARCHAR2(400))

INSERT INTO TEST_JUNK_CHAR VALUES('Fiş İçe Aktarma Oluşturuldu Header')
