Access Flat Files From Oracle Forms Using Simba

Hi,
I need to access Flat Files using Simba and display the data using Oracle Forms on Solaris. The Flat Files, Simba and Oracle Forms is on Solaris.
Thanks.
Sanjay R Naidu.

Hi,
not knowing the flat file's format and why you need SIMBA for it, Forms provides a text_io package that can read from files. You need to parse the file's content and then bring this to a datablock.

How to open .cmdrw file from Oracle Forms 10g

Hi,
We need to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g. Is there any way to call *.cmdrw* file from Oracle forms 10g?
Thanks for the help.
Viishnu Nekkanti

In case you want to open a .cmdrw with its associated application you can use the following procedure:
webutil_host.NonBlocking( 'rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler ' || client_filename );This works for every file where a program has been associated to its file extension. (Adobe Reader for *.pdf, Microsoft Word for *.doc, Microsoft Excel for *.xls and so on)

Extracting a flat file from oracle table

I have moved the knowledge module KIM ISO SQL to FileAppend from the Metadata to my project folder.
But when I create an interface mapping the oracle table and a flat file on a different unix server, in the drop down menu , it shows only KIM SQL TO SQL and KIM Control Append.It does not show up the SQL to FileAppend knowledge module option.
What should I do to extract a flat file from oracle table?
Thanks

All IKM in the Drop Down Menu are dependent of the target technology.
A question, at this interface, is your target table a file ?

How to access environment variables from Oracle Forms

Hi,
Any idea how to use the Environment variables from Oracle Forms.
My basic problem is that from Oracle form I am calling Batch file which calls excel file with a macro.
So i want to check whether the macro was successful or not.
So in my batch file i will set %errorlevel% which I should be able to read from Oracle Forms.
I am able to read the registry from oracle forms, so is there anyway to read environment variable as well?
Thanks!

How to download a file from Oracle UCM using OSB

Hi,
How can I download a file from Oracle UCM and save it on a filesystem using OSB 11.1.1.5.
Thanks

UCM supplies webservice interfaces which let you retrieve the filecontent by soap calls from UCM (http://ucmhost/_dav/cs/idcplg for example). (maybe you should enable some settings on ucm to have this webservice interface getting published).
This services for example has 2 operations getFileByID and getFileByName.
So you can just call these services from within OSB.
After that you need to do some tests if you eitherway need to create a file-transport business-service and call this one from your proxy service or create a messageType proxyservice (binary) which calls this file-transport business service to be able to write fo filesystem.
I think for the OSB book i used a jca file adapter generated in Jdeveloper and used that one to write to filesystem.

Generate .dbf file from oracle database using JDBC

Dear all,
I need to generate a .dbf file from oracle table. Anyone know how to do this using Java Programming or JDBC? please help!
thank you

Hi,
I assume you already have a JDBC driver for either FoxPro or DBase. If not, use the JDBC-ODBC bridge and the ODBC driver that comes with Window$.
When you issue a "Create TABLE" command the driver will automatically create a .dbf file and then you can export data to it.

SSIS - Exporting Data into flat files from Oracle Table as batchwise process

Hi All,
Thanks in advance.
I have a Large Table in Oracle Database with some 3 Lakhs record. I need to fetch the 10,000 records for every iteration and export it into the flat file. This process should occur recursively until the table becomes empty.
Hence, For every iteration on flat file to be generated with 10,000 records.
Please help how to proceed further in SSIS.
Thanks
Pyarajan.S

Yes, it always helps if your question doesn't specify the actual requirements...
Use the FOR loop container to control the iterations of the data flow. For each run you read 10,000 rows from the table and dump them in a flat file. Either move the flat file, or use an expression on the flat file connection manager to give them dynamic
file names.
30 million rows is also not a problem by the way, it just takes a bit longer.

How to call pdf files from oracle forms

I have a pdf file in the server , I need to call this and open when a button is pressed in the oracle forms.
Please let me know how to do this.
Thanks,
Previn

Frank,
I have oracle applications and I want to open a pdf file located in the server from a button in oracle applications.
Previn,
you don't mention the Forms release you are running.
If you are running Forms on the web, you can use
web.show_document() to load files from the Web if
they are accessible via HTTP.
