using oracle 10g currently create many external tables like so..
CREATE TABLE "XT_UNITS"
(
"Q1_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q2_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q3_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE),
"Q4_2012" VARCHAR2(25 BYTE)
[code]....
is there any way I can use 1 flat file (csv) to populate many external tables ?
the following situation, I have a directory named /dat/global/stock/ inside this i will get files named differently for example below.abcdef.112dfgrt.2......
Here i want to load this file one by one into the external tables and generate one more file based on some enrichment.
Step 1. Have to take first file and to load into the ext table.
Step 2. Enrichment
Step 3.File generation.
Now here i am facing a problem that in that particular directory i usually get 1000 files so i need to get file one by one and to put in one more directory. how can i get file one by one and generate file by using oracle loader
Actually what i am trying to do is to extract data form tables and place them in an external text file....i wrote the following code
FUNCTION
create or replace
FUNCTION dump_data ( p_query in varchar2,
p_separator in varchar2 ,
[Code].....
Is it possible to trim the file name while loading into OWB through external tables?
Like suppose I am trying to read a file which has a timestamp value appended in its name. In that case loading into external file would give an error.

I'm stuck on the CREATE VIEW part and the SELECT statement to get the output of the CREATE VIEW. We were instructed not to use AND and simply use JOIN on this exercise.
Question - For employee John Smith, give the project(s) he is working on, his department's name and the name of his division. See crows foot diagram on a separate file.
CREATE TABLE DIVISION

I've been given the task of importing an XML file into multiple tables within our database using PL / SQL and I am wondering what the best approach would be.
The files will be quite large and I need the code to be as flexible as possible.
I am trying to spool data from tables into flat files. I am using the following scripts to accomplish it
1. A cmd file (windows) that makes a call to a sql file
2. The SQL file which generates another query file at the run time, depending upon the table name passed to it
3. The run time query file , that executes the final query and spools the data into a txt file | delimited
For e.g. :
Actual command passed C:Spool_utilityspool_utility TABLE_NAME
E.g. of the spool utility file :
@echo off
SET dbuser=XX@YY
SET dbpw=xxxx
echo %date% - %time% - Start > %1%log.txt
echo START
sqlplus -s %dbuser%/%dbpw% @spool_utility.sql %1>%1.txt
echo %date% - %time% - Done >> %1%log.txt
echo DONE
E.g. of the spool_utility.sql
set echo off
SET newpage 0
SET feedback off
SET linesize 32767
set pagesize 0
[code]........
The above file generates a table_name.sql file with the actual table name at run time and gets executed and the output is written to the table_name.txt file.
This works perfectly fine. But the issue is when someone passes some wrong table name or if there is a actual run time error while executing the query , the error with details itself itself gets written to the end spool file.
For e.g. : if i do this just to generate an error and execute it from command line, the query generates an error and writes the error to the spool file , but at the command prompt where I executed the command I do not see any error and the process seems to have run perfectly well
set xxx on xxx off as above
spool &1.sql;
Prompt Select * from &1 where rownum><10---this will cause the issue
spool off
set termout ON
@ &1
EXIT
Eg of spool file generated :
from table_name WHERE rownum><=10 *
ERROR at line 62:
ORA-00936: missing expression
My question is, is there any way i can capture this runtime error and return this error to my calling sql script spool_utility.sql and then propagate it to the calling command file and do some tasks for eg removing the spool file and writing the actual error to a log file . Basically any way to know at my OS calling level that the entire spooling operation was unsuccessful.
Just wanted to export a clob field to .txt file, the maximum length of the clob field exceeds the limit 32767. So only partial data is exported to flat file. is there any way to export the entire data available in clob field irrespective of the size or lenght.

i'm working on a project right now using Oracle Forms 6.0 and Oracle 9i. after i create a record and save the data in the table, how can i generate/create a text file of that particular record? i need this text file in order to run it in another computer and somehow upload the data in the text file to another database.
i will also need to create the text file for multiple records.
Database: Oracle 8i
My query is:
I have large data in the one table(approx. 2GB and above). I want to load the data in one flat file.
When i use spool - it is loading half data and remaining it is corrupting. In UNIX, i kept .sql file and with that i am exporting in .dat file. How to export the large data into flat file(.dat). is there any way to load command which wil be used in UNIX.
working on loading the data from flat file into table and below given is the validation condition given.I checked the UTL_FILE build in package but not able to figure out, how to identify the column header in flat file.
1. Skip the header, if any. The header is the first record, and starts with '000'
2. Skip the trailer, if any. The Trailer is the last record, and starts with '999'
3. Log an error, but continue if a line exceeds 512 characters
4. Log an error, but continue if a line is blank
I have got a procedure that successfully creates an oracle external table and populates it with the contents of a file. This works fine until I have a situation where one of the fields is a VARCHAR2(2) and I try to insert say, a 5 character value. When this happens the record in question does not get populated in the external table (and rightly so), but I could do with working out if there is a discrepancy in the number of records in the file and the number of records that actually make it into the table so I could inform the user that there is a problem.
I have attached the code that creates the external table and populates it.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to build a data warehouse for Consumer Price Index and so I have downloaded data from the Bureau of Statistics.It is in excel format and since I am working with Oracle Warehouse Builder I have converted it to .csv file so that I can use it as a data source.
Question1: Is it practical to use single .csv file as a source of data for a data warehouse?
Question2: I have 3 dimensions tables and a fact table.The dimensions are one for the Region(as the date is organized in region,states etc),two is the consumer goods and services (as the data is organized in groups of goods and services, services/goods types) and finally time(year and month),
Now how am I going to do the mapping here?Is it possible to do a one to one mapping here as all data required by the dimensions is located in the .csv file.
I am migrating data from DB2 to Oracle. I used DB2 export to extract the data specifying lobsinfile clause. This created all the CLOB data in one file. So a typical record has a column with a reference to the CLOB data. "OUTFILE.001.lob.0.2880/". where OUTFILE.001.lob is the name specified in the export command and 0 is the starting position in the file and 2880 is the length of the first CLOB.
When I try to load this data using sqlldr I'm getting a file not found.Attached is a copy of the control file and output from testing
PS. I cant use the DB2 option LOBSINSEPFILES which creates a separate file for each CLOB column because the table has over 14 million rows....and creating 14 mil files causes OS inode problems...

In one of my projects I am exporting a couple of views into a flat file. The export utility is generic and uses dynamic sql to generate a flat file. We have a test environment and a production environment. On both the code is the same. We noticed that the output is different between the environments although it is supposed to be the same. If I export a view in the production I will get a record like this:
0020110107O0000000001|OTHER|07.01.11 08:06:00,296000|07.01.11 08:04:41,008000||0|0|EUR||NOT_FROZEN|MVOIP||IS_NORMAL_VERSION|MODIFIED|6863475590797607166|8648564326455689103|8011808169304472215|||CCP||||10000580||||DEKA|PS
In the test environment it will be like this:

The code I am running is not changing any settings explicitly. It looks like this and it will be run as EXECUTE IMMEDIATE:
DECLARE
v_sql VARCHAR2 (32000);
v_sql_count NUMBER := 0;
v_error VARCHAR2 (4000);
v_new_file UTL_FILE.file_type;

I also tried to do the following on production in order to get it equal to the test environment:
BEGIN
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'ALTER SESSION SET NLS_LANGUAGE = AMERICAN '
|| 'NLS_NUMERIC_CHARACTERS = ''.,'''
|| 'NLS_TIMESTAMP_FORMAT = ''DD-MON-RR HH.MI.SSXFF AM''';
END;
This would change the formatting for the timestamp columns for almost all files. Almost. Two of those files remain unchanged and still show the decimal separator from the old setting:

I have a text file called ReturnedFile.txt. This is a comma separated text file that contains records for two fields.... Envelope and Date Returned.
At the same time, I have a table in Oracle called Manifest. This table contains the following fields:
Envelope
DateSentOut
DateReturned
I need to write something that imports the ReturnedFile.txt into a temporary Oracle table named UploadTemp, and then compares the data in the Envelope field from UploadTemp with the Envelope field in Manifest. If it's a match, then the DateReturned field in Manifest needs updated with the DateReturned field in UploadTemp.
I've done this with SQL Server no problem, but I've been trying for two days to make this work with Oracle and I can't figure it out. I've been trying to use SQL*Loader, but I can't even get it to run properly on my machine.
I did create a Control file, saved as RetFile.ctl. Below is the contents of the CTL file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:OracleTestReturnedFile.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE UploadTemp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "'"
(
ENVELOPE,
DATERETURNED
)
If I could get SQL*Loader running, below is the code I came up with to import the text file and then to do the compare to the Manifest table and update as appropriate:
sqlldr UserJoe/Password123 CONTROL=C:OracleTestRetFile.ctl LOG=RetFile.log BAD=RetFile.bad
update Manifest m set m.DateReturned =
(select t.DateReturned
from UploadTemp t
where m.Envelope = t.Envelope
*)
That's all I got. As I said, I can't find a way to test it and I have no idea if it's even close.
I am trying to import data from below content.
