Convert data from AS/400

When I make a query to AS/400 table, the character field appear in Hexa presentation, How can I translate that to human readable format?
Thanks

You can retrieve data from your database, and then perform some convertions between datacodifications.
You can cast an int to a char to a String:
int vInt = 50;
char vChar = (char)vInt;
String vString = ""+vChar;
System.out.println("int=" + vInt + ", char=" + vChar + ", str=" + vString);
// output: int=50, char=2, str=2
All think that your stoed data are in the form of strings like "0x56" for hex 56, Integer.decode() are useful here.

How to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet

how to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet.
I need to import columns and there datas from oracle database to microsoft excel sheet.
Please let me know the different ways for doing this.
Thanks.

asktom.oracle.com has an excellent article on writing a PL/SQL procedure that dumps data to an Excel spreadsheet-- search for 'Excel' and it'll come up.
You can also use your favorite connection protocol (ODBC, OLE DB, etc) to connect from Excel to Oracle and pull the data out that way.

How can i convert data from DBF to oracle database 10g?

Sir,
How can i convert data from DBF to oracle database 10g?

I assume you at least know how to dump the contents of foxpro dbf file into CSV format.
Regarding SQL*Loader, hope this demo makes it a bit clear to you...

I agree that it is an old web page (references Oracle 8.0.5) but basics remain the same.
If it is still unclear to you after referring above link, then get an Oracle consultant.

Convert date from YYYYMMDD to DDMMYYYY

Please help if anyone knows any function module to convert date from YYYYMMDD to DDMMYYYY format..
Thanks in Advance,

Hello.
Simply do like this:
DATA: datum TYPE char10.
WRITE sy-datum TO datum <format option>.
<format options>:
DD/MM/YY and MM/DD/YY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a two-digit year value and a separator. The separator and the order are taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
DD/MM/YYYY und MM/DD/YYYY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a four-digit year value and separator. The separator and the order are taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
DDMMYY und MMDDYY:
Both additions have the same effect. The date output has a two-digit year value and no separator. The order is taken from the definition for date output in the user master record.
YYMMDD:
This addition provides a date output with a two-digit year value without a separator in the format YYMMDD.

What is the fastest way to bulk load data from AS/400 to Oracle?

I have been asked to move data from AS/400 to Oracle11gR2 as fast as ODI possibly can. Just straight mapping, no transformation, no joining.
An ODI11g agent is started on the target Oracle machine but, being new to ODI, I only know how to use SQL to Oracle LKM to load to staging and then Oracle Incremental Update IKM to move from staging to target table.
It took 50 minutes to move around 4 million records. I need to get this down to around 10 minutes. So guys, if there is a best practice to do this, please let me know, but right now I'll try any suggestion that you could think of.
Thank you in advance.

Create a new FILE dataserver - the put the IP address in the 'Host', complete the user and password fields. Create a new 'physical schema' - badly named I know as there is no such thing. The Physical schema 'Data Schema' would point to the directory that you require. /usr/etc/data/ for example. set your work as well.
create a logical, link the two together via the context etc etc
Basically the same as a db topology object. You can also refer this in the API OdiRef.getSchemaName() as you can with any other db logical.

I want to convert date from Microsoft Access to Oracle.
My Oracel date format is 21-Jul-2004 02:24:09 AM
I use sqlldr in Oracle 9i Database and I

trailing nullcols

data file 'test.txt' for input

replace birthday with
birthday "to_date(:birthday, 'DD-Mon-YYYY HH:MI:SS AM', 'NLS_LANGUAGE=''american''')"Of course, if your monthes are in German, then set the language to german (JUL=JUL but DEZ<>DEC)

ALE, use bd79 (converting data from sender to receiver to blank out fields)

Hi, I am trying to blank four fields out in our FI IDOC for a certain business reason. These fields must be blank (it is the FIDCC1 message type). I am trying to use transaction bd79 (converting data from sender to receiver) maintain rules. Is there a way to blank out these fields using a conversion rule? I can change data fine but I cannot find a way to blank or null a field out. Thanks in advance.

You should have a look at the inbound function module (linked to your inbound process code). sometimes there are checks that if fields are initial that nothing will be changed.

What is the best way to load and convert data from a flat file?

Hi,
I want to load data from a flat file, convert dates, numbers and some fields with custom logic (e.g. 0,1 into N,Y) to the correct format.
The rows where all to_number, to_date and custom conversions succeed should go into table STG_OK. If some conversion fails (due to an illegal format in the flat file), those rows (where the conversion raises some exception) should go into table STG_ERR.
What is the best and easiest way to archive this?
Thanks,
Carsten.

Hi,
thanks for your answers so far!
I gave them a thought and came up with two different alternatives:
Alternative 1
I load the data from the flat file into a staging table using sqlldr. I convert the data to the target format using sqlldr expressions.
The columns of the staging table have the target format (date, number).
The rows that cannot be loaded go into a bad file. I manually load the data from the bad file (without any conversion) into the error table.
Alternative 2
The columns of the staging table are all of type varchar2 regardless of the target format.
I define data rules for all columns that require a later conversion.
I load the data from the flat file into the staging table using external table or sqlldr without any data conversion.
The rows that cannot be loaded go automatically into the error table.
When I read the data from the staging table, I can safely convert it since it is already checked by the rules.
What I dislike in alternative 1 is that I manually have to create a second file and a second mapping (ok, I can automate this using OMB*Plus).
Further, I would prefer using expressions in the mapping for converting the data.
What I dislike in alternative 2 is that I have to create a data rule and a conversion expression and then keep the data rule and the conversion expression in sync (in case of changes of the file format).
I also would prefer to have the data in the staging table in the target format. Well, I might load it into a second staging table with columns having the target format. But that's another mapping and a lot of i/o.
As far as I know I need the data quality option for using data rules, is that true?
Is there another alternative without any of these drawbacks?
Otherwise I think I will go for alternative 1.
Thanks,
Carsten.
