Any support to create XML files?

Hello,
I was looking for functionality and support that OWB 10gR2 might offer in order to create XML files, containing relational data w.r.t a given definition. I did only find the packages that allow manipulation of XML data in tables and those two that allow loading data from XML files, but didn't find any write support.
Is my conclusion correct that there is no functionality that supports coding data in XML files in OWB 10gR2? Can anyone who knows please confirm or falsify this conclusion.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
the best way with BI Publisher to do that is a data template: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10383_01/doc/bip.1013/b40017/T421739T434255.htm
With that you can create your wished structure out of the database.
Have you tried with database functinonality? Have a look at the SQL/XML Functions: http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14259/xdb13gen.htm#sthref1484
which could be an approach.

Creating XML File Using xmldom Package

How can I create an XML file from scratch using the PL/SQL xmldom package?
I want to create an XML file using the xmldom package instead of building the individual tags as strings of VARCHAR2 character data. There is quite a bit of documentation regarding manipulating input XML files using DOM -- but not for creating XML files from scratch given known "tagnames" (<lastName>) and retrieved database "values" ("Smith").
<person>
<lastName>Smith</lastName>
</person>
Is there any documentation that you can recommend?
Thank you.

Here is an example.
The create_file procedure creates the file.
The other procedures are generic procs that can be used with any XML.

Is there any way to create a file compatible with Premiere Pro

Is there any way to create a file in Premiere elements that is compatible with Premiere Pro and that can be used in Premiere Pro

Consternation
The important information that I do not see mentioned nor offered by you.
1.What version of Premiere Elements are you using and on what computer operating system it is running? What version of Premiere Pro do you want to use?
The Premiere Pro Import Supported Formats seem to indicate that it will accept the Premiere Elements project.prel (project file) on Windows Only.
Adobe Premiere Pro Help | Supported file formats
This may or may not be possible depending on damaged projects or outdated elements.
2. If you want to export your Premiere Elements Timeline to a file saved to the computer hard drive and subsequently import that into your Premiere Pro version, that "should" work. You would go to the Premiere Elements Publish+Share/Computer/ and make a selection based on what the Premiere Pro Import Supported file formats are and what you need. I can help you with that. But, details first.
But, just a "beware"...when you get to Premiere Elements 11 or 12 (if that is the version involved) Publish+Share/Computer/ there are several categories, but all you see is Adobe Flash Video, MPEG, and AVCHD. The rest of the list that includes AVI and QuickTime which both need to be scrolled to all of the time to see them, not just sometimes, with the thin scroll bar to the right of the list of choices. You can export files
with AVI file extension, under Publish+Share/Computer/AVI
with MOV file extension, under Publish + Share/Computer/QuickTime
And, if you do not have QuickTime installed on your computer with Premiere Elements, you are not going to have presets for the QuickTime export.
Remember, there is more to an export than just its file extension. Know your other export properties as well.
In many cases, you can customize the export settings to suit your requirements.
Problems will exist if you are trying to go from Premiere Elements Windows to Premiere Pro Mac or vice versa.
I would be glad for the opportunity to help you with this issue, but details are needed.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thanks.

Can not create XML file from MS Access 2003

Hi,
I am getting error as "Error loading in DLL" when I use msaccess_exporter to create XML file for migrations usind Access 2003 DB. Does anyone know about this? If yes, could you please let me know how to resolve it?
Thanks,
Kartik

Hi Daniel,
I believe you are seeing the message "Table'_OracletblDatabase' already exists" because you are attempting to export an MDB file that you previously attempted to export, but that initial export process may not have run to completion. I recommend opening your .MDB file, and delete any "_Oracletbl..." table objects that exist under the list of Table objects. Close the MDB file and carry out the export process again. You should now be able to use the 2000 mde file.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Hilary

Creating XML files with the DME

Hi All,
I'm working on an integration project between my company and HSBC, they are requesting that we supply our AP payment files for foreign currency in XML format.
I have some limited experience with the DME and know it can create XML files, however, the elements available for XML files are different to standard flat files. Also it doesnt seem like I can create files with multiple levels? e.g.
<InitgPty>
......... <Id>
............... <OrgId>
...................... <BkPtyId>ABC00103003</BkPtyId>
.............. </OrgId>
........ </Id>
</InitgPty>
Does anyone have any documentation or experience with creating XML files with DME?
thanks
Phil.

SQL Error : missing expression - Creating XML file with ODI

Hi,
I saw threads about errors like this and read that maybe it can come from how I chose the staging area. I still can't see where the problem is. I'm trying to create an xml file from data stored in a Oracle database. The interface which execution fails select data from tables and create a tag in the XML file. Here are information about it :
The staging area is diferent from the target and is an oracle database schema. (I guess it creates temporary tables in that schema ?)
In the flow tab, the LKM is LKM SQL to SQL, the option delete temporary objects is set to yes.
The IKM choice for the target is IKM SQL Control Append and options are as following :
- insert : yes
- commit : yes
- flow contreol : no
- recycle errors : no
- static control : no
- truncate : no
- delete all : no
- create target table : yes
- delete temporary objects : yes
Columns mapping in the target are the following :
WKID        >     THEADER.WKID
EXTID        >     THEADER.EXTID
ORDER     >     THEADER.ORDER
INSTFK     >     THEADER.INSTFK
For every column in the target :
- Run on source
- Updating : insert, update and ud4 are checked
no update key is defined
In the operator, the step failing when running the interface is the loading data in the work table.
If you need the SQL request in the execution plan, or anything else, please tell me.
Thank you in advance for any help on this.
Marie

It would help if you provide error message and its stack trace.
Please also look at the documentation (If not already done so) for creating xml file XML Files - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

Custom IDOC to create XML file

Hi,
We are on 4.7 release.
A custom outbound IDOC type is developed to creates a text file at the location entered in FILE type port.
Now we want to create XML file intead of text file. Is it possible by simply changing the port to XML FILE port? Or do we need to do any modifications inside the FMs for the IDOC?
Similarly for Inbound scenario (using custom IDOC type), do we need any chagnes in FMs to handle IDOCS in XML file format?
Thanks.

You can even do that conversion of idoc to xml by simple method
create a xml port and use the standard fm there
and it wud handle that.

if the file name is already exist i want to modify or delete or add whatever i need.
Kindly help me simple way

You may want to look into getting Xtools ps-scripts - Browse Files at SourceForge.net then. Most of the support is for ActionManager script code where XML code is use as an intermediate step. There are quite a few Photoshop script in XTools . Ross Huitt is an expert javascript programmer though is is fed up with Adobe's lack of support for Photoshop scripting particularly the bugs in ScriptUI he is still maintaining tool he has created for us free of charge. Tools like Image Processor Pro. None of his scripts are save as binary so you can read all of his code there is a wealth of knowledge in there....
Also there is a scripting forum Photoshop Scripting

Create XML File in HIPAA 834 file structure

Hi ,
We have to create XML file in HIPAA 834 file format , Do we have any build in component/Adapter for this . It something like calling that build in omponent and map the XML elements to the source field and ODI should be able to create the XML file in HIPPA 834 structure format .
As of now we are using complex file to create aXML file in this format . We are looking for some option that could reduce this manual work

If I understand correctly, Basically you need to create the xsd for HIPAA 834 document
This can be done by software in SOA called Document Editor- Oracle B2B
This is around 10GB installable. in this you can create the xsd by creating the ecs file and then exporting to xsd

Hi Mahendra,
This is an example to save a form as XML :
try
                System.Xml.XmlDocument oXmlDoc = null;
                string sXmlString = null;
                oXmlDoc = new System.Xml.XmlDocument();
                // get the form as an XML string
                sXmlString = Form.GetAsXML();
                // load the form's XML string to the
                // XML document object
                oXmlDoc.LoadXml(sXmlString);
                string sPath = null;
                sPath = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(System.Windows.Forms.Application.StartupPath).ToString();
                sPath = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(sPath).ToString();
                // save the XML Document
                oXmlDoc.Save((sPath + @"\Form" + sType + ".xml"));
                //oXmlDoc.Save(DIRECTORY_TEMPLATE + "Form" + sType + ".xml");
            catch (Exception ex)
                SBO_Application.MessageBox("ERROR in 'SaveAsXML()' : " + ex.Message, 1, "Ok", "", "");
And an example to navigate in the XML file :
System.Xml.XmlDocument xxml;
                                System.Xml.XmlNode node;
                                System.Xml.XmlNodeList nodes;
                                xxml = new System.Xml.XmlDocument();
                                xxml.LoadXml(oRecAU.GetAsXML());
                                nodes = xxml.SelectNodes("BOM/BO/IFC_AU/row");
                                foreach (System.Xml.XmlNode node in nodes)
                                    oColumn.ValidValues.Add(node.SelectSingleNode("Code").InnerText, node.SelectSingleNode("Name").InnerText);
I hope it's help you.

Create XML file on application server (unix directory) from internal table

Hallo everybody,
I have got the following problem:
I am working with release 4.6C and have got to create XML files from HR master data and organizational data respectively.
This takes place in 3 steps:
1. Collect the data in an internal table
2. Convert the data to XML format using the function module 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
3. Download the data
If I download the converted data, which are in an internal table, to the presentation server via the function module WS_DOWNLOAD and open it with the Internet Explorer, everything is ok.
If I download the converted data to the application server, i.e. into a unix directory via
open dataset, loop at internal table, transfer working area to file, close dataset
and then try to open it, this is not possible, because after the last tag some unreadable characters, e.g. a square, appear that arent supposed to be there. Thats what my colleagues told me, for I havent got access to the server.
I have no idea where these characters come from and how I can get rid of them. I guess that either I have to modify (how?) the table with the converted data before the download or I have to use another way to convert the data. For the second way I would probably have to work with an XML class or an XML interface. Unfortunately II am not an expert in working with classes so sample coding would have to be rather detailed.
Heres some more information about how I work with the conversion function module:
call function 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_XML_FORMAT'
 exporting
 i_field_seperator = lv_field_seperator
 i_line_header = lv_line_header
 i_filename = lv_xml_file
 i_appl_keep = ' '
 i_xml_doc_name = lv_xml_doc_name
 importing
 pe_bin_filesize = lv_result
 tables
 i_tab_sap_data = gt_data
 changing
 i_tab_converted_data = lt_tab_converted_data
 exceptions
 conversion_failed = 1
 others = 2.
lv_field_seperator = X.
lv_xml_doc_name = Personalstammdaten Publikation
lv_result: type i
gt_data: fields: PERNR, PERSG, PERSK etc.
types:
begin of truxs_xml_line,
 data(256) type x,
end of truxs_xml_line.
types:
truxs_xml_table type table of truxs_xml_line.
data:
lv_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_line,
lt_tab_converted_data type truxs_xml_table
open dataset lv_xml_file for output in binary mode.
loop at lt_tab_converted_data into lv_tab_converted_data.
transfer lv_tab_converted_data to lv_xml_file.
endloop.
close dataset lv_xml_file
lv_xml_file: /usr/users/.../.../Personendaten_2004-11-02.xml
Hope the information is detailed enough! Otherwise let me know. Thank you in advance.

Hi Raja,
tried the "TEXT" mode, but that didn't help.
There are still characters after the last tag, that are not supposed to be there including a date that is not
the creation date of the file.
Thank you for your help.

Create XML File from a specified XSD file

Hi,
I'd like to create an XML document with java. BUT How can we "bind" this creation with a XSD file. Hence, the creation may fail if the XSD binded file is not respected.
So I know how to create XML file but not bind to this creation my proper XSD file (XML schema). With which tool can I do this ?
Thanks.

Whether that works for you with the version of Oracle you have, your requirements, and needs is another story. A little detail goes a long way.

Any support to create XML files?
