Hello,
What manu suggested this can be done through oracle forms.
If as i read your last post you are using that in database it will not work in db. Try to use the same process in oracle forms will work by making some changes.
And if you don't want to use forms then there is one way using SQL LOADER. It required control file to execute for uploading data.
See the below link.
http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/SQL*Loader_FAQ
In this example its showing filename.csv you can use your file name like yourfilename.txt.
So your control file will look like this...
load data
infile 'file_path\file_name.txt'
into table table_name -- use actual table name where you want to upload data
fields terminated by " " -- Here using spaces as you mentioned
(column1, column2, column3) -- Here use the three column names of tableAnd after creating control file with the above code. You can call it in command prompt like this
sqlldr username/password control=control_file_path\control_file_name.ctl log=log_file_path\log_file_name.log
or
sqlldr username/password@dbconnection control=control_file_path\control_file_name.ctl log=log_file_path\log_file_name.log
Before doing this practice make sure SQLLDR.exe availabe in the machine where you have to execute. Otherwise you will have to install db client for using sqlldr.exe

How to maintain the data into database table

Hi,
experts,
how to maintain the data into database table

There are several ways to maintain data in the database
1. Use table maintanance generator . You can create this using SE11 and data can be edited through SM30.
2. Loginto SE11 with the specified table and check the ATTRIBUTES tab. There you can set some parameters for maintaining the database. When you set Maintain database, you edit the data thorugh SE11 it self
3. Through Se16 as well.
4. A small abap program can do the above task as well.

How to read RMAN data into an ORACLE Table?

Hallo,
With regards to RMAN, how should we store the data into a database table, from the commands which can run only on RMAN prompt without using Recovery Catalog?
For Example:
RMAN> Report need backup days 3;
RMAN DATA:
RMAN-03022: compiling command: report
Report of files whose recovery needs more than 3 days of archived logs
File Days Name
1 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\SYSTEM01.DBF
2 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\RBS01.DBF
3 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\USERS01.DBF
Should it done via UTL_FILE?
If so, could someone give simple example/code how to do that, in order to write this RMAN data into an Oracle Database table?
I also set the utl_file_dir parameter to a particular directory in my database.
Thanks
W.Benvort

Actually, I am not using Recovery Catalog, so the views like RC_database, Rc_tablespaces etc , which are specific to recovery catalog are not available.
r.- this make sense at 100% because those views belong to the recovery catalog.
So, I wanted that these information, which we can get via using the commands like above, transfer into an Oracle table
r.- If you want to access the views of the Recovery Catalog to store part of that information in tables you have to have the database registered in a Recovery Catalog.
Should we keep the Recovery Catalog in Control file? Instead of using separate Schema.
r.- I recommend you to create a catalog for your database because the space the controlfile to store information regarding RMAN is reused and you can lose important information about your backups.
Can we run Catrman.sql script as a sys in order to keep the recovery catalog in sys schema?
r.- As you know, this is not recommended at all.
Conclusion : Create a Recovery Catalog and you will be able to perform all that you want regardind what you mentioned above.

Hi,
You can insert XML data from XML file to Oracle database by this script :
Hi,
For reading and inserting the data from XML file to Oracle Database :
1. CREATE A BLANK TABLE with same structure as XML file :
select * from xml_test
2. SELECT QUERY DIRECTLY ON XML FILE :
SELECT XMLTYPE(bfilename('TEST_DIR', 'data_file.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')) xml_data FROM dual
3. CREATE ORACLE DIRECTORY AND PLACE XML FILE IN THIS DIRECTORY LOCATION:
--CREATE DIRECTORY TEST_DIR as '/oracle/test';
--grant all on directory TEST_DIR to public;
4. INSERT THE XML DATA IN ORACLE TABLE:
INSERT INTO xml_test(column1,coumn2)
WITH t AS (SELECT XMLTYPE(bfilename('TEST_DIR', 'attachment.xml'), nls_charset_id('UTF8')) xml_col FROM dual)
SELECT
extractValue(value(x),'/ROW/COLUMN1') column1
,extractValue(value(x),'ROW/COLUMN2') column2
FROM t,TABLE(XMLSequence(extract(t.xml_col,'/ROWSET/ROW'))) x;
I have assumed a table with 2 columns.

Trying to insert CLOB data into Remote Table..

Hi everyone,
I think this question had already posted.But i am not able to figure out this problem..
what i am trying to do is
I have a table in the remote database with a CLOB column like this
REMOTE_TABLE
============
REMOTE_TABLE_ID (Populated with sequence)
REMOTE_CLOB CLOB
In my Local database i have to write a Procedure to gather some information on a particular record (My Requirement) and save that CLOB in the REMOTE_TABLE.
I built that procedure like this
Declare
var_clob CLOB; /* I need to processs several records and keep all data in a clob
begin
/***** Processed several records in a local database and stored in the variable var_clob which i need to insert into remote database ****/
Insert into remote_table@remote values (remote_table_seq.nextval,var_clob);
/*** when i try to execute the above command i am getting the following error
ORA-06550: line 6, column 105:
PL/SQL: ORA-22992: cannot use LOB locators selected from remote tables
ORA-06550: line 6, column 1:
PL/SQL: SQL Statement ignored *****/
/***For a test i created the same table in local db****/
Insert into local_table values (local_table_seq.nextval,var_clob);
It is working fine and i am able to see the entire CLOB what i want.
surprisingly if i pass some value instead of a varibale to the remote table like the following..
Insert into remote_table@remote values (remote_table_seq.nextval,'Hiiiiiiiii');
It is working fine...
I tried the following too..
decalre
var_clob clob;
begin
var_clob := 'Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiii';
Insert into remote_table@remote (remote_table_id) values (1);
commit;
update remote_table@remote set remote_clob = var_clob where remote_table_id = 1;
commit;
end
I am getting the following error..
ORA-22922: nonexistent LOB value
ORA-02063: preceding line from CARDIO
ORA-06512: at line 6
Could someone please help me in fixing this issue..I need to process all the data to a variable like var_clob and insert that clob into remote table..
Thanks in advance..
