How to upload the flat file records into internal table by position?

Hi
I have a flat file which has 7 records in each row and they are NOT provided with CSV or Tab demilited...
They are continous text without spaces....
but i know the fixed length of each field Eg : 1st field 7 char and seconc field 3 char and so on...
How can i upload this file into internal table by reading positions of each field...I know we can use GUI_UPLOAD and Read dataset and Open dataset...
But please let me know to read the file with the fixed postions and load into internal table...
Thanks in advance

Hi
As per my knowledge i dont think thr is some function module or so to read with a fixed positions.
You can use the below method if you think this is the best way.
Suppose your file has
types : begin of ty_itab,
            field1 type char7,
            field2 type char3,
            field3 type chat3,
            field4 type char3,
            end of ty_itab.
types : begin of ty_upload,
             str type string,
            end of ty_upload.
data : it_itab type standatd table of ty_itab,
          it_upload type standard table ot ty_upload,
          wa_itab type ty_itab,
          wa_upload type ty_upload.
use gui_upload.get the data in it_upload.
here you know that u have first 16 charcters makes a first row n then next 16 charcters next row
Loop at it_upload into wa_upload.
   v_len = strlen ( wa_upload ).
   v_len = v_len / 16.
    You get number of rows per record ,if it is decimal value make it final value if 3.9 make to 4.
    do v_len times.
      wa_itab = wa_upload.
      By this only first 16 characters are moved and respective fields will get a value.or else u can use offset
       wa_upload+0(16).
      append wa_itab to it_itab.
      Now shift 16 characters using shift command in wa_upload.
    enddo.
endloop.
Hope this syntax help you to resolve your issue.May be something i have missed .Right now i don't have sap system to send you the full correct syntax code.
Cheers

How to query the flat files?

Hi
How to query the flat files that are used in Etl From EBS source.

That can be done in OBIEE. Save the flat file as .csv format. Then go to ODBC Administrator on windows machine where you BI server is running, and create an System DSN and select "Microsft Access Text Driver (*.txt, *.csv)" as driver type.
Next, import tables in RPD using this ODBC connection. Rest of the steps as same as building model from a table source.
Hope this helps.

How to list the JAR files loaded into the Oracle Database ?

How to list the JAR files loaded into the Oracle Database ?

From 11.1 onwards, the below two views are available to identify the jar files loaded into the Database.
JAVAJAR$
JAVAJAROBJECTS$
By querying the JAVAJAR$ view you can know information about the JAR files loaded into the Database and using JAVAJAROBJECTS$ view you can find all the java objects associated with the given JAR file.
These views are populated everytime you use LOADJAVA with "-jarsasdbobjects" option to load your custom java classes.
But unfortunately this feature is available only from 11.1 onwards and there is no clear workaround for above in 10.2 or earlier.

Hi
Suppose RFGLBALANCE is your standard program and you have an internal table named I_RFGLBALANCE.
And lets say your Z program name is Z_SRINIVAS.
First find out the type of the internal table you want in your Z-program in the standard program. And declare an internal table of similar type in your Z-program.
I hope you can do this much.
Later wherever you are putting the below mentioned code.
SUBMIT RFGLBALANCE WITH selection criteria
Write the code which i have written.Obviously modify it to suit your requirement.

How to devide the set of records into groups in SQL itself.

Hi , i am using 10.2.4.0 of oracle.
I am having one requirement, in which i have to devide the set of records into certain groups , so that they can be executed partly but not in one run.
So in the 'SELECT' clause itself i want to asssign particular value (may be 1 )to first 50000 records then another value(may be 2) to next 10000, like wise. And again the total count of records will also varry time to time , if the total count of record set is less than 10000 , then it should only assign '1' to all the records. i will set the group values (1,2,3...) as another column itself.
Can you please let me know if this can be done in SQL without going for PLSQL?

Hi,
That's called a Pagination Query , and here's one way to do it:
WITH     got_grp          AS
     SELECT     x.*
     ,     CEIL ( ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY x_id)
               / 50000
               )          AS grp
     FROM     table_x x
--     WHERE     ...          -- If you need any filtering, put it here
SELECT     *               -- Or list the columns you want
FROM     got_grp
WHERE     grp     = 1
;ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY x_id) assigns unique integers 1, 2, 3, ... to all all rows, in the same order as x_id (even if x_id is not unique).
CEIL (ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY x_id) / 50000) maps the 1st 50,000 of those numbers to 1, the 2nd 50,000 to 2, and so on.
Analytic functions (like ROW_NUMBER) as computed after the WHERE clause is applied, so, to use the results in a WHERE clause, then you need to compute them in a sub-query. If you just want to display the number, and not use it in a WHERE clause, then you don't need a sub-query.
I hope this answers your question.
If not, post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) for all the tables involved, and the results you want from that data.
In the case of a DML operation (such as UPDATE) the sample data should show what the tables are like before the DML, and the results will be the contents of the changed table(s) after the DML.
Explain, using specific examples, how you get those results from that data.
Always say what version of Oracle you're using.

How to upload the pdf file to the next view?....urgent

Hi Experts,
I need to upload the pdf file( a interactive form ) using the fileupload element in the A_view and the pdf file can be displayed in the b_view.
But I don't know how to complete the function?
Action:
0. Create a adobe form (c_form)in the R/3 using sfp with a inputfield.
1. Create a adobe interactive form (A_interactive_form)in the view(display_view) of the WDA for abap.
2. Create a context attribute(upload) in the display_view.
3. Bind the c_form to the A_interactive_form, so that the data can be transfered to the c_form.
4. Bind the "pdfSourth" property to context attribute "upload" in the A_interactive_form.
4. Type code in the WDA for abap for setting data("old") to the context.
5. Active the WDA and run the WDA.
6. In the IE, the interactive form is displayed with the value "old" in the field. Save the pdf form as "test.pdf" and close the IE.
7. Open the test.pdf, and type the inputfield "new" in the form, and save the test.pdf.
8. Create a context node(Pdfsourth) in the component controller, and create a attribute("upload") that type is xstring in the Pdfsourth.
9. Create a view(C_view), mapping the context node(Pdfsourth) in the component controller.
10. Create a fileupload element in the C_view, and the "data" property is binded the "upload" attribute in the context node(Pdfsourth).
11. Create a button(Display_form) and create the action with the outplug for upload the pdf file(test.pdf).
12. Change the window and set the C_view as default view, and set the Navigation link from the C_view to B_view.
13. Type code in the wddoinit method in the display_view for transfering the test.pdf file.
method WDDOINIT .
DATA lo_componentcontroller TYPE REF TO ig_componentcontroller .
DATA upload TYPE xstring.
lo_componentcontroller = wd_this->get_componentcontroller_ctr( ).
lo_componentcontroller->getupload(
 IMPORTING

DATA lo_nd_pdfsourch TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_node.
DATA lo_el_pdfsourch TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
DATA ls_pdfsourch TYPE wd_this->element_pdfsourch.
navigate from <CONTEXT> to <PDFSOURCH> via lead selection
lo_nd_pdfsourch = wd_context->get_child_node( name = wd_this->wdctx_pdfsourch ).
get element via lead selection
lo_el_pdfsourch = lo_nd_pdfsourch->get_element( ).
get single attribute
lo_el_pdfsourch->set_attribute(
 EXPORTING
 name = `UPLOAD`
 value = upload ).
endmethod.
15. Active the WDA and run the WDA.
In the fileupload of the C_view, I select the test.pdf from my local machine. and click the button(Display_form), the display_view is displayed with the A_interactive_form.
But in the A_interactive_form, the value "old" is in the field in the form rather than "new".
I hope to display the test.pdf in the A_interactive_form. I don't know how to change my code or configuration?
Do you give some example or some hint for this problem ?
Thanks & Regards,
Tao

Now, The problem has been solved.Thanks a lot.
