How to load CSV with accented characters?

Hi,
I have a database instance with NLS_CHARACTERSET = 'AL32UTF'. I upload a csv file with APEX into WW_FLOW_FILES table and then parse it with dbms_lob.instr. The problem that I am facing is that if I save the CSV file in UTF8, then this works fine, if I save it in any other encoding then it's displaying 'funny' characters when I try to parse it and display the parsing result and the source data contains some accented characters, like, á, é, ő etc,
I am not sure if this is an APEX issue or I rather be turning to NLS forum. TIA.

Problem with base64 encoding an xml file with accented characters

Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 Enterprise Edition running under windows 2003 server
DB Characterset UTF-8
I have a routine which takes an xml file and base64 encodes it, and the base64encoded text is stored in a clob column of a table.
The xml file is stored in UTF-8 format.
The routine works correctly, except when there are accented characters.
I am using dbms_lob.loadclobfrom file to load the file.
DBMS_LOB.OPEN(src_clob, DBMS_LOB.LOB_READONLY);
    DBMS_LOB.LoadCLOBFromFile(
          DEST_LOB     => dest_clob
        , SRC_BFILE    => src_clob
        , AMOUNT       => DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(src_clob)
        , DEST_OFFSET => dst_offset
        , SRC_OFFSET   => src_offset

TS3212 Having problems downloading. OS is LINEX and I'm not sure how to load itunes with it.

Having problems downloading. OS is LINEX and I'm not sure how to load itunes with it.

Agreed. No native linux support. The only ways you could run iTunes with a primary linux system would be to a) dual boot, b) virtualize Windows with VirtualBox, VMware, etc., or c) attempt to run iTunes in Wine (which doesn't usually work very well). Dual boot would give you the benefit of complete support and usage of hardware and software, but virtualizing is a bit more convenient, since you would not have to reboot your linux host.

Sms with accented characters

Hi,
I hope somebody with some SMS/SMPP experience would be able to fix the problem or
advise as what to do. OK Now we have an application which is supposed to send an
SMS to a recipient on certain occassions and this SMS might contain accented characters.
Now in SMPP apparently we have three encoding schemes namely
1) 7 bit GSM encoding
2) 8 bit binary
3) UCS-2
Now the third one is out of question since it would reduce the size of the message
to 70 characters which is not acceptable. 2nd one which is 8 bit binary with I assume
DCS value 4(or at least thats what we are using) seems to support only latin characters.
It works for latin characters i.e., iso-8859-1 which does have some accented characters.
however for other than latin we have some problems e.g hex value for small phi in
greek (iso-8859-7) is f6. If you look at the corresponding value of f6 in Latin 1(iso-8859-1)
it is �. Now if you send greek characters setting the DCS value to 4 and u send three
phi's what you would recieve on the recipient device are three �. So it seems that
the 8 bit binary supports only iso-8859-1.
Now if I try to do some encoding into GSM 7 bit. and send three phi's thought I dont
recieve � but not phi's at the recieving end. The DCS value for the purpose I am
using is 0. How am I encoding it to GSM 7 bit.
I am creating the following array
private static final char [] GSM_7Bit_CHARACTERS = {
'@', '\243', '$', '\245', '\350', '\351', '\371', '\354', '\362', '\307',
'\n', '\330', '\370', '\r', '\305', '\345', '\u0394', '_', '\u03A6', '\u0393',
'\u039B', '\u03A9', '\u03A0', '\u03A8', '\u03A3', '\u0398', '\u039E', '\033',
'\306', '\346',
'\337', '\311', ' ', '!', '"', '#', '\244', '%', '&', '\'',
'(', ')', '*', '+', ',', '-', '.', '/', '0', '1',
'2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9', ':', ';',
'<', '=', '>', '?', '\241', 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E',
'F', 'G', 'H', 'I', 'J', 'K', 'L', 'M', 'N', 'O',
'P', 'Q', 'R', 'S', 'T', 'U', 'V', 'W', 'X', 'Y',
'Z', '\304', '\326', '\321', '\334', '\247', '\277', 'a', 'b', 'c',
'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i', 'j', 'k', 'l', 'm',
'n', 'o', 'p', 'q', 'r', 's', 't', 'u', 'v', 'w',
'x', 'y', 'z', '\344', '\366', '\361', '\374', '\340'
Storing all the values in a Map in teh same order and then for each character in the
message sending the byte value of the index. If I do a snoop in the snoop I see the
right hex values as per GSM Encoding table but on the recipient device I see garbage.
Any ideas as to how can greek and other european character set support be added to
this application?
Am I using the wrong DCS value or any body with some other ideas.

I don't know about the exact character sets for the 7 and 8-bit SMS, but I doubt it's any different then character sets for anything else... So, in this case, the 7-bit set will only be able to handle the first 128 chars, which is A-Za-z0-9 and some punctuation. 8-bit would go into the extended ASCII chars in the table here:
http://www.asciitable.com/
There might be some restrictions or differences.
Basically, 7-bit is ASCII. 8-bit is ASCII+Extended or ISO8895-1. The chars your talking about sending get into the other ISO8895-X sets, which I believe would be out of range. The USC-2 should give you these, however. So either you send shorter messages, or you send ASCII text.
It would also depeend on the device to be able to display those characters in the first place. Just like on any web site, if you don't have a font that has the necessary characters, it just displays as ? or a box or whatever.

Converting XML to Spreadsheet - Problem with Accented Characters

I have a program that uses an external program to gathers user account information from Active Directory. The external program is .Net, and I execute it from my Java app, which then collects the XML output and saves it in a String variable. So far so good.
Next it parses the XML and retrieves the values for each field for each user 'record' and stores these values in a String member inside of a class I created called "User".
At the end of the process, the User class data is written to a file in XML format. Still, so far so good. However, using a text editor, any user names that have accented characters in them have an extra space character after the accented character. E.g. accented "e" becomes "e ". At least that is how it appears in the Textpad editor app that I use.
Next I have a class called "XMLToExcel", that creates a spreadsheet using Apache's POI library, reads in the XML records , and writes the values for each field into a cell. Here the name with an accented character gives the message "[Fatal Error] <file name>:2617:23: Invalid byte 1 of 1-byte UTF-8 sequence."
I'm not sure what I can to do fix this, or even where to fix it. I wouldn't mind losing the accented characted and replacing it with an un-accented one.
Any ideas? I can provide code snippets if that would help.
-John Gooch

The text looks the same in Notepad and Textpad. However, I manually added the "encoding" tag with the value of "ISO-8859-1", and the converter no longer complains about invalid characters.
I added the encoding tag to my application's output file, so the converter should not complain about it on the next run. Unfortunately, the names have been fixed in Active Directory ( the special character was there by mistake ), so I cannot do a live test to be sure that it is fix.
Thanks for the help, Duke points incoming!

Hi,
Using GUI_upload convert file to internal table data.
Using the below statement separate header and data from CSV.
Read t_itab into wa_titab index 1.
delete t_itab from wa_itab.
Create an internal table with the structure same as 'CSV' file and use the below statement to separate.
loop at t_itab into wa_itab.
      split wa_itab-rec at ',' into var1 var2 var3.
      wa_output-v1 = var1.
      wa_output-v2 = var2.
      wa_output-v3 = var3.
    append wa_output to t_output.
endloop.

How can I disable the accented characters from popping up on the iPad?

Hello all,
I work with clients who are unable to talk due to various developmental delays. We use the Proloquo2go app which uses the regular iPad keyboard for communication. Is there a way to disable the accented characters from popping up when typing on the keyboard? This is very distracting for some of our clients. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Nikki

I don't use an external keyboard but I wonder if you would have any different functionality with one. I'm sorry that I cannot recommend anything but have you thought about that approach?

We are using DRM to manage Essbase metadata. These metadata contain a field for member formula.
Currently it's a string data type property in DRM so we can't use carriage return and our formula are really hard to read.
But DRM support other data type property : memo or formatted memo where we can use carriage return.
Then in the export file, we have change the record delimiter to an other character than CRLF

Hi,
How to use to search Notification number or something with wildcard search,
see following e.g.,
DATA: L_TRANS TYPE RANGE OF ZNOTIF-TRANS.
DATA: BEGIN OF WA_TRANS,
       SIGN(1),
       OPTION(2),
       LOW(45),
       HIGH(45),
      END OF WA_TRANS.
        WA_TRANS-SIGN = 'I'.
        WA_TRANS-OPTION = 'CP'.
        WA_TRANS-LOW = INIT-TranNumber.
        APPEND WA_TRANS TO L_TRANS.
        SELECT * FROM NOTIF
                 INTO TABLE ZNOTIF
                 WHERE TRANS IN L_TRANS.
        IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
          EXIT.
        ENDIF.
Basically if i give '111' or '111%' or '111*' for INIT-TranNumber which is the first 3 digit for most of the notification. It doesn't give any entry.
How to handle wild card search '*' if WA_TRANS-LOW is initial?

WE + CE cause problem with accented characters

While creating a CFF font which contains the WE as well as the CE character set, it causes problems with most of Adobe programs (Photoshop 7, Illustrator 10, Photoshop Elements 2.0) under Mac OS X. Problem: the accented characters get replaced by Helvetica (Photoshop) or Myriad (Illustrator). Only InDesign treats it right.
I tested under Mac OS X 10.2 as well as 10.3; no difference. I tested on 'old machines', but fresh machines as well (machines which didn't have the fonts installed before); no difference. All the same problem.
Deleting the CE characters solves the problem, but yeah, I want to create a CFF font which contains both character sets.
Generating the font in FontLab or FDK doesn't make any difference.
So, what's the solution? Sounds like a mystery.
Bas

Two comments:
OpenType/CFF fonts should work to some degree on versions of Mac OS from 8.x on. "Some degree" means that pre-Mac OSX, you need ATM for them to work, and you only get the Roman char set. On Mac OSX, Unicode savvy apps will give you access to the entire charset, but at the moment only Adobe apps support any OpenType features.
About your problem with CE charset: this is a known problem, and is still a mystery. Adam Twardoch has reported the same problem and has supplied some test fonts. I have spent over a day looking over the fonts, and looking into old code, and can't find any problem in the font data. Investigating further is likely to be a several day effort, and will happen, but not soon.

How to load date with time zone using sql loader???

Hi All,
How to load following value in the table using SQL loader.
[11/Jan/2006:15:20:14 -0800]
What should be the datatype of the column in the table. I have tried with "timestamp with local time zone", but unable to load the record using sql loader. What should be the format string in the loader control file to load this type of record.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Sameer

Try something like this in your control file:
mycol char "TO_TIMESTAMP_TZ(mycol, 'DD/MON/YYYY:HH24:MI:SS TZH:TZM')"

How does load-balancing with WebCache work - is there still a bottleneck?

Hello,
We're migrating an old Forms 6i app to 10.1.2.0.2 (apps servers = Redhat Linux), and are starting to consider using WebCache to loadbalance between two application servers.
My question is this - say we have apps servers A and B, both running Forms and Reports Services. We use Webcache on server A (don't have the luxury of a third apps server...) to load balance between A and B. So all initial requests come into A, which in some cases may then be diverted to start a new Forms session on B.
For those users whose middle-tier sessions are now running on B - will all network traffic for their Forms session continue to be routed through Webcache on A, then to B, over the course of the session? Or does Webcache somehow shunt the whole connection to be straight between the client PC and server B, for the duration of that Forms session?
If the former, does that mean that the server hosting Webcache can still be a significant bottleneck for network traffic? Have people found load-balancing with Webcache to be useful..?
Thanks in advance,
James
