Creating a comma delimited flat file
Hi,
I am trying to create comma delimited flat files from oracle large Oracle 8.0.6 tables. What is the best method? It seems like using the spool command is very inefficiant. Can sqldr be used?
Todd,
This looks very helpful -- thanks! I need to unload very large tables and this should do the trick.

I have a comma delimited flat file. For example - "This,is,a,test" I want to read each word and perform something with the word in Business Logic Services. What is the best way to accomplish this?
In Business Logic, expand the XML Functions tab.
At the bottom you will see an action called: String List To Xml Parse
Use that action to parse the comma seperated items and then perform any logic required on the individual items.
What this action does is it places all the items in a Rowset/Row, Row, Row type format common to xMII.
Enjoy!

Getting correct field length when creating formats for delimited flat files
Using Data Services 3.2 to pull in tsv and Excel source files.
When creating a new format for each file, DS tries to intelligently set the field size for each column. However, it seems to sample only a portion of the file. The end result is that it often determines too short a length for a field.
Is there a way to force it to scan an entire file before it sets the field length? Or alternatively, how to get it to at least throw an error instead of silently truncating my data?I am not aware of any way to force DS to scan the whole file, or to log a warning when it truncates. The field sizes DS sets by using a sample of the data is only really to give you a starting point, you need to try and determine the maximum possible lengths preferably from someone who understands the source of the data or through profiling. But the profiling method will obviously only be based on the data you have at the time of profiling, new data added to the source later could exceed the field lengths. The way I prefer to handle this is to set all the field lengths to longer than expected, eg. varchar(999) and then use a validation transform immediately after reading the file to check for any fields that exceed the maximum allowed for the target system and send these to an error file/table.

Unable to upload delimited flat file (Datastore)
Dear All,
Drilling down the tutorial: ODI11g: Creating an ODI Project and Interface: Exporting a Flat File to a Flat File
facing quite a problem while reverse-engineering delimited flat file (Datastore ->Model). No matter which type of delimited flat file is uploaded (txt, csv,prn), the system stayes intact while pressing "Reverse Engineering" button. Changing to Fixed Flat File option reveals that the system uploads correctly only the first row - Header of the columns (second option from the top)..and ...of cource, all the rest of the rows were placed in the first column.
I was preparing delimited flat files using Excel 2007 and 2010, in both cases no success. I tryied to create Fixed Flat File with Excel....confused completely since I could not realise how doing that?!
Properties are below. Please, help!

What is the best, most efficient way to read a .xls File and create a pipe-delimited .csv File?
What is the best and most efficient way to read a .xls File and create a pipe-delimited .csv File?
Thanks in advance for your review and am hopeful for a reply.
ITBobbyP85You should have no trouble doing this in SSIS. Simply add a data flow with connection managers to an existing .xls file (excel connection manager) and a new .csv file (flat file). Add a source to the xls and destination to the csv, and set the destination
csv parameter "delay validation" to true. Use an expression to define the name of the new .csv file.
In the flat file connection manager, set the column delimiter to the pipe character. -
Importing a delimited flat file, what are the options?
Hi,
I need to import some data from an Informix database into oracle.
Informix exports it's data into a delimited flat file. Once I have created the schema, tables in Oracle whats the best way to import the data into Oracle?
Should I just create a massive SQL script with insert commands for each line or is there a better way?
any help/ideas appreciated.
Thanks.SQLLoader and/or External tables are at least two options. These will be definitely faster than insert scripts.

Generating a Delimited Flat File
Halo BSP Gurus,
I am in need where I have to generate a delimited flat file. I would like to know whether it is possible in BSP and if so how to achieve that.
Your Suggestions will be appreciated.

Leogeneration is not a problem, its just a concatenation of field values with propet delimiters . but what do you want to do with the generated file content,
automatically store it in client desktop?
mail it?

How to create a tab-delimited text file?
Hi,
I need to create a tab-delimited text file at presentation server getting content from an internal table. My file should also have a header - also tab-delimited. Data for a header is stored in some work area.
Any ideas how to add tab-delimiter into a text file? Or should I go for a HEX file and use
CONSTANTS: c_tab TYPE x VALUE '09'.
and separate my data with this constant instead?
Any thoughts whould be appreciated.
TIA
Ivaylo MutafchievHi Ivaylo,
Refer sample code:
IF i_final_head[] IS NOT INITIAL.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
filename = lcl_filename
filetype = 'ASC'
write_field_separator = 'X'
TABLES
data_tab = i_final_head
EXCEPTIONS
file_open_error = 1
file_read_error = 2
no_batch = 3
gui_refuse_filetransfer = 4
invalid_type = 5
no_authority = 6
unknown_error = 7
bad_data_format = 8
header_not_allowed = 9
separator_not_allowed = 10
header_too_long = 11
unknown_dp_error = 12
access_denied = 13
dp_out_of_memory = 14
disk_full = 15
dp_timeout = 16
OTHERS = 17.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE s000 WITH text-031.

Error while creating process chain for flat file loading
Hi All,
I had Created a process Chain to load Transactiion data(Full load) form flat file which is in my computer.
start>Load>DTP>DeleteIndex>DTP loading CUBE--> Create Index
but the system is throwing an error as "An upload from the client workstation in the background is not possible."
I dont know why this error is coming?
Can some one help me
Regards
MamtaHi Mamta,
Basically if you want to load the DS through FF using process chain, the FF has to be placed in Application server. We cant load the FF when it is located in the client local workstation(FF On your PC).
So better you remove the Infopackage step from the PC. Load the IP manually. Once it is completed you can start the process chain with the following steps:
start>DTP>DeleteIndex>DTP loading CUBE> Create Index
Hope it is clear & helpful!

Steps to create Data loading from Flat File to Info Cube in BI
Hi,
I am very new BW, I need some one help. When I am trying to create info source i am any pop window stating to create Transaction data or master data.
After creating Info source, I dont know how to assign this info source to source system (which i created).
When select the context menu of info source I dont have option to assign the datasource.
And one more thing is When I am creating the Info Cube. I cant understand how to create.
Please some one help me how to map the fields to Source system.
Regds
Dave.Hi,
For flat file upload, first you need to create the source system.
Then you need to create the infosource based on the format of the flat file you are going to upload or vice versa depending on your requirements.
Once your infosource is ready, right click on it and select assign datasource. Here you can assign your flat file datasource. Then create an infopackage and give the path from where the file is to be upload to BW (in the infopackage).
Also look at the thread below for procedure on flat file upload :

Ssrs 2012 export to comma delimited (csv) file problem
In an ssrs 2012 report, I want to be able to export all the data to a csv (comma delimited) file that only contains the detailed row information. I do not want to export any rows that contain header data information.
Right now the export contains header row information and detail row information. The header row information exists for the PDF exports.
To have the header row not exist on CSV exports, I have tried the following options on the tablix with the header row information with no success:
1. = iif(Mid(Globals!RenderFormat.Name,1,5)<>"EXCEL",false,true),
2. = iif(Mid(Globals!RenderFormat.Name,1,3)="PDF",false,true),
3. The textboxes that contain the column headers, the dataelelementoutput=auto and
the text boxes that contain the actual data, I set the dataelelementoutput=output.
Basically I need the tablix that contains the header information not to appear when the export is for a csv file.
However when the export is for the detail lines for the csv export, I need that tablix to show up.
Thus can you tell me and/or show me code on how to solve this problem?Hi wendy,
Based on my research, the expression posted by Ione used to hide items only work well when render format is RPL or MHTML. Because only the two render format’s RenderFormat.IsInteractive is true.
In your scenario, you want to hide tablix header only when export the report to csv format. While CSV file uses the textbox name in detail section as the column name, not the table header when you view the table. So if we want to hide the header row of the
tablix, please refer to the steps below to enable the “NoHeader” setting in the RSReportserver.config file:
Please navigate to RSReportserver.config file: <drive:>\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS1111.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer \RSReportserver.config.
Backup the RSReportserver.config file before we modify it, open the RSReportserver.config file with Notepad format.
In the <Render> section, add the new code for the CSV extension like this:
< Extension Name="CSV" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.DataRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataRendering">
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<NoHeader>True</NoHeader>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
< /Extension>
Save the RSReportserver.config file.
