Is there a way to read Excel file using UTL_FILE package ?
Like our usual method:
l_utlfile := utl_file.fopen(p_dir, p_filename, 'R',2000);
p_filename is event.xls
Or do we need to convert that file to .csv or .txt ?

We have a requirement to create a file using UTL_FILE package. so we tried to generate the file in directory at UNIX level,for example "/tmp" which means when we executing the stored procedure which in turn calls UTL_FILE package and create a file say "a.txt". On checking the permission for "a.txt", it shows as follows
-rw-r----- oracle dba a.txt
this means read and write for oracle user, read for dba group and no permission for other user.
our requirement is to have the following privileges at UNIX level.
-rw-r--r-- oracle dba a.txt
Is it possible to do at oracle level since the file is owned by oracle user or at UNIX level (with out logging to oracle user)?
Environment: UNIX AIX 6.1 and Oracle 11.2.0.3

We have a p/slq procedure that reads a *.txt file using the UTL_FILE package. The contents of the file are then inserted into a database table.
At the end of the procedure we close the open file using UTL_FILE.FCLOSE.
There is a program (non-oracle)that attempts to move the file to a new location after being read into Oracle. The problem is that the application cannot move the file as the file is locked. ie message displays that the file is open and cannot be moved to a new location.
Is there anything else that we are missing besides the UTL_FILE.FCLOSE.

I have an application that creates files using the utl_file package. It works fine but one of the lines in the file should hold the number of bytes in the file (on a line formatted like 'FileSize: 2104'). Unfortunately this line is not the last line of the file and the lines that follow it are variable in length.
My approach therefore is as follows:
1. Write the 'FileSize: ' line during file creation.
2. Write the remaining lines of data to the file (but don't close it).
3. Use utl_fgetattr to find the file size.
4. Go back and find the 'FileSize' line I need to update, using get_line to read it into the buffer.
5. Append the filesize (plus the number of characters that the variable I use to store the filesize value) to the buffer string.
6. Write the line back to the file using put_line.
However I keep getting invalid file operation errors however I try to re-access the file...
PROCEDURE setUtlFileSize (pFileName IN VARCHAR2,
pFileHandle IN utl_file.file_type) IS
vbFileExists BOOLEAN;
viFileLen NUMBER;
viFileBlockSize NUMBER;
vsFileRecord VARCHAR2(2000);
[code].......
This gives me the following output.... (for two files)... currently I am using some generic exception handling just to show me the error.
File Length: 2106
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
File Length: 497
File Position: 0
-29283,ORA-29283: invalid file operation
Process exited.
Two things here concern me: The File Position suggests that the current offset position is set to the start of the file... but since I had not closed or performed any other operation since the last put_line and fflush (which are used to add lines to the file) I had expected that the offset position would be the same as the file length?
Secondly: Even if the position had been reset to the start of the file I don't understand why the get_line gives me the oracle error.

I'm using
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
I'm creating a file using UTL_FILE.FOPEN and UTL_FILE.PUTF
But I don't know the file I created is in which encoding ASCII, UTF-8, EBCDIC etc.
1.) How can I create files in my desired encoding using UTL_FILE?
2.) Does UTL_FILE use database encoding? If yes then how to find out database encoding?
3.) Which encoding is used by UTL_FILE by default?

I am using an Oracle 8i database.We intend creating a dbms_job that would run every 5 minutes. The job executes a script that would use utl_file to read two text files (a header file and detail file) from a particular directory and load the data into temporary tables. The naming convention of the files are Parts_Master_DD/MM/YY HH:MI:SS and Parts_Stats_DD/MM/YY HH:MI:SS. Both files to be stored in the same directory.
If the file name was constant ie. Parts_Master, Parts_Stats I would not have a problem. However with each file name now going to be unique, how do I handle this using utl_file. To add to my dilemma, within an hour more than one set of files could be piped to the directory to be read into the database.

I´m having a trouble creating a db package. I´ve changed my job and now i´m working full on DB instead of Forms Developer.
So my trouble is that i want to create some like a global cursor on DB package, i know you can create global variables and use it on all the procedures/function inside the package. But how about cursors?
My problem: I dont´know how to declare into the spec. I don´t know how to use it on body.
My actual
I have the structure below:
PackageSpec:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE [i]MyPackageName[/i]
IS
CURSOR [i]myGlobalCursor[/i](par1 IN VARCHAR2, par2 IN DATE)(
);
PROCEDURE [i]MyProcedure1[/i](par1 IN VARCHAR2, par2 VARCHAR2);

I have another question to ask on packages..
I have a dictionary under the schema
OWNERSYS
DIRECTORY_NAMEUTL
DIRECTORY_PATHc:oracleoradataspmap1utl
I have cretaed an external table to read data to a table from a csv file placed in "c:oracleoradataspmap1utl". The csv file name is say "pildata.csv"
I have cretaed a package to read data from the exteranl table and to insert it into a table.
INSERT INTO M_PILEINT SELECT
A.AREA AS "AREA",
A.SUB_FAC_DESC AS "SUB_FAC_DESC",
A.SCOPE_DETAIL AS "SCOPE_DETAIL",
A.MTO_ISSUE_DATE AS "MTO_ISSUE_DATE",
A.MTO_TAKE_BY AS "MTO_TAKE_BY",
A.COMMODITY_CODE AS "SECTION"
A.PILE_NAME AS "PILE_NAME"
FROM M_EXE_PILE A
(where M_EXE_PILE A is the external table which is reading from pildata.csv)
The package runs good and data is populated to M_PILEINT .Is there a way , I can rename the csv file (say to pildata_logxxxx.csv.. something like that) from within the package.Whenever the package is run , it will copy the data from exteranl table and renames the csv file to something else..?

i am trying to read the file, for which i m using the following:
l_utlfile_hdr := utl_file.fopen(p_dir,'header_evnt.txt', 'R');
utl_file.get_line(l_utlfile_hdr, l_hdr_evnt);
it gets these three characters at the start of the line
l_hdr_evnt = 
So i saved header_evnt.txt as UTF-8, and used utl_file.fopen_nchar, utl_file.get_line_nchar, which got rid of first two characters, but still has ¿. How to get rid of that?
