How to upload the web query result to CSV/Text file

Question

Hi,
Kindly help me on the following.
1)       I have info-provider (IP), which has info-objects "company code" and "supplier".
2)       I built a query by putting company-code with a variable in free-charateristics and supplier-code in row.
3)       When I run this query, it will ask company-code as input and the result will be filtered using company-code.
4)       For this query, I created a web-template and assigned data-provider to display the data on the web.
5)       The user wants to enter input company-code='1000' and write the data in a CSV file in a specific directory. i.e, by clicking the execute button (after entering company code) , the result should go to the CSV or text file. i.e. the application should automatically generate the file with query results.
Note: The user should not use context menu to EXPORT TO CSV OR EXCEL file.
Please let me know, if there is any tutorial. Thanks a lot advance help.

Answer 1

1. SELECT INTO
Below method will create table when data is inserted from one table to another table. Its useful when you need exactly same datatype as source table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Insert data using SELECT INTO
SELECT AddressLine1, City
INTO BothellAddresses
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
GO
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO
2. INSERT INTO SELECT
Below method will need table to be created prior to inserting data. Its really useful when table is already created and you want insert data from
another table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Create Table
CREATE TABLE BothellAddresses (AddressLine1 NVARCHAR(60), City NVARCHAR(30))
---Insert into above table using SELECT
INSERT INTO BothellAddresses(AddressLine1, City)
SELECT AddressLine1, City
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO
