Can I use OWB to convert a fix-delimitted file to a csv file?

Hi! anyone tried this before? source file is in fixed-length file and target should be a csv file.
thanks in advance,
carlo
OWB 10r2

It's quite simple.
1.Generate 2 file objects in the OWB design that represent the 2 files. One configured as fixed-length, the other as csv.
2. Design an external table based on your input file object
3. Design a mapping that maps from the external table into the 2nd (csv) file object
4. Configure file names as desired
5. Deploy external table, connector(s) and mapping to DB
6. Execute the mapping
There you go...

    thanks

    Quicktime Pro - can i use it to convert Mpeg4 to MOV or DV?QTKirk is quite correct here with one caveat -- that the MPEG-4 file is "standard" and not employing proprietary or "custom" settings/audio compression format.

    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. If nothing has happened after holding for 30 seconds charge the phone for 15 minutes with the wall adapter and try again.

  • Can I use iTunes to convert m4a to mp3 for use on my car stereo

    I would like to burn a playlist to a CD for playing on my car stereo.  If I use the default audio option, the CD sounds terrible, so I guess I need to select the mp3 option instead.  When I do that, however, I'm told that my files are in m4a format and need to be in mp3 format instead.  Can I use iTunes to convert m4a files to mp3, and if so, how? I wish to retain the songs in my iTunes so I suspect I need to make copies of the original and convert the copies, but I don't know how to do this either.

    Click here and follow the instructions.

  • Can i use a environment variable inside a *.sql file?

    Hello,
    I want to create a external table.
    So i am using the command
    create or replace directory abc as 'C:\folder'.... inside a sql file.
    Now i want the path "C:\folder" to be dynamic as i am using this path in many other places also inside the sql file.So i thought to create a environment variable and put this value there.I tried using as %PATH% but it gives error..... where %PATH%=C:\folder.
    Can i use a environment variable inside a *.sql file?
    But how to do that or is there any other way.
    Thanks

    Actually what i want is the path "C:\folder" is not fixed it can be anything which i may not know the user may decide it later. Not supported. A directory object refers to a specific physical location (directory/folder) on a file system. Not a path.
    You can work around it by (creating and) using a function (running under a super user schema with authid definer privs). The caller (e.g. schema scott ) calls it with a physical path. E.g. GetDirectoryObject( 'C:\folder\2010\feb\week4' ).
    This function determines if there is an existing directory object for the path. If not, it uses a wildcard search to determine if there are any directory objects for parents in the path (e.g. for C:\folder\2010\feb or C:\folder\2010 or C:\folder ).
    If it finds a directory object, it interrogates the data dictionary to determine if the caller, schema scott for example, has read/write access on that directory object. If it has, it creates a new directory object and grants the caller read/write access to it. The function then returns the name of the directory object to the caller.
    The caller thus do not deal directly with directory objects. The function returns the object name given a physical path as input. Also, only a single base directory needs to be created (e.g. for C:\folder ) and access granted to the schema on it. Any sub-directory in that base directory can now be dynamically accessed by the schema.

  • How can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files?

    I read that iWeb stores one's website pages in the domain folder which can be located at ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files? If so, how? -I tried. I entered my Time Machine back up, and went back in time and brought the domain file forward but it opened only my current site pages, not the ones I am trying to recover. And it says the Domain file was last modified in October 2007 which is crazy because I've been using iWeb a lot and have published many pages. It seems like the uncorrupted pages, which I am trying to recover, existed somewhere on my computer at one point in time and space, less than a week ago, becuse I just published my site to a new hosting service since Apple will soon stop web hosting. So why can I not find them using time machine?

    I continued searching and read another person's advise to down load an app named "Find File," then search for .sites. She said spotlight doesn't always find all files. So I did and sure enough, when I searched for .sites I found another Domain package, which I have no idea how it was created but which, it ends up, was the one actually being used by iWeb. So I went to that package then did the time machine and went back to before my web pages became corrupted. I had to delete corrupt blog pages out of my website menu to get iWeb to upload the other page changes even to a local folder.
    So I went to that newly found Domain, went back in time, then brought that forward and as you pointed out the domain package had the parts of the pages, the files and jpegs, but not the structure/layout of the pages. So, I guess I gave up on finding the old pages.
    Those pages still exist on the Apple hosting server but iWeb doesn't not reverse publication. Cyberduck would bring back the files and bits and peices but again not the pages as a total entity. I'm preparing for the end of Apple website hosting (next month?) and am republishing my old site. I decided to use a new domain name. So my entire original site is still totally intact on the web under the original domain name, on my mobile me site, I guess it will be there till sometime in June?
    My problems started when I tried to publish my website to the new server. It just would not publish the whole website in one session. So I decided to do it a few pages at a time. Some pages went up, but as I added more, for some unknown reason the, blog pages, (about 70 subpages),  which had aleardy uploaded just fine to the new server, became corrupt and locked up iWeb. Of course once I deleted the corrupt pages I didn't want to continue publishing the site to the host until I found and reinserted uncorrupted pages, knowing publishing changes would delete the already published pages.
    At first I thought it was the hosting server's fault, but when I discovered that it wouldn't publish even to a local fold I was able to locate the cause within iWeb, deleted those pages then tested by publishing to a local folder. iWeb worked locally, so I knew I had found the problem pages. Well this is way more than you wanted to know. Thanks for your advise but I'll just start the blogging pages over.

  • You can't use Contribute to edit this type of file

    I've updated a few pages from a website, so they're just
    variations of pages that used to work with Contribute. Now I'm
    getting a message--on some of them--that "you can't used Contribute
    to edit this type of file." These are html files with the extension
    htm. They contain tables. They are based on templates. They don't
    seem to have any other distinguishing properties. Exactly what kind
    of files don't work? What might I be doing wrong? I teach this at a
    college & my students are as puzzled as I am.

    Ancient thread, but if anyone else is googling this phrase I thought I might respond with a possible answer.  I encountered the same error but could not find anything wrong with the page in question.  Turned out the page getting the error message was fine! The issue was actually with a simple typo on the page that linked to that page--it was missing the extension (e.g., linking to "page2" instead of "page2.php".  The web server (and Contribute's browser) were pulling up the page even though the extension was missing but Contribute didn't know what kind of file it was so it refused to allow editing.

  • Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file

    I am trying to create a Type 1 font postscript file. But I found it is hard to find the library to generate the Type 1 font postscript file. I just found a library named iText which can create the Type 1 font PDF file.
    Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file?
    Thanks!

    I don't see much benefit with the current ODI adaptors for planning if it is an EPMA type planning application.
    They have been specifically designed to work with classic planning applications.
    It certainly is possible to load into EPMA interface tables using ODI though there are no direct adaptors and it takes quite a bit of effect to get them into the correct format.
    Cheers

  • Can I use my Mac to make a backup file of a MS DOS file

    Can I use my Mac to make a backup file of a MS DOS file?

    Have you verified that the mill is using FAT12?
    Do I understand correctly that the mill boots from the floppy - it has no other storage?
    If that is the case, then the new disk needs to be in the correct format and set up as a boot disk, which will not happen automatically, and I'm not sure if you can do it with OS X. The instructions on this page should help.
    If it is something you need to do a lot of, and have no access to an MS-DOS computer, you could consider installing the Parallels virtual machine software on your Mac, and setting up a virtual MS-DOS system.

  • Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my Mob/PS3/iPod?

    Can I use the Camera Connection Kit to transfer files from my mobile/iPod or Playstation 3 to iPad using a USB cable?
    I have an *iPod nano 16GB 5g* & my mobile is a *Samsung G800* and *Playstation 3 80GB*.
    _Thanks for reading_

    The CCK will find/ask to download (if iPad supported formate )picture and video files if the device is formated in FAT 16 or 32 and the supported files are placed in a "DCIM" folder in the root directory. I have transfered such files from SD card and USB drives. However, not USB drive work. I had an old 2GB (very large) and when i connected it it said it drew too much power.
    I also downloaded pictures and video files from a compact flash card and smart media card via a SanDisk USB card reader.
    AppleIpod60GB wrote:
    No. The CCK is only designed to allow you to import photos from a digital camera via USB or an SD card. You cannot import any data via this kit and no other files will work as it's designed for only the functionality it does. The kit looks for a folder with the label "DSC####### the same structure as most digital cameras, and will only function with JPG files.

  • How can I use my software CD to fix operational system's problems?

    the cd that came with the MacBook, how can I use it to fix problems with the OS, but not deleting the files that I have ?

    You can boot up off of the CD and run Disk Repair including Repair Permissions or Verify Disk. Other than that, there aren't many choices From Apple for "fixing problems" from the CD as such.. unless you call reinstalling the OS "fixing problems".
    Alternatively, if Safari is slow you can "reset Safari" from the Safari pull-down menu.
    You can also download the 10.6.8 Snow Leopard Combo upgrade and reistall that from your desktop.
    You can also let you rmachine run over night and let the S/L utilities run automatically at night.. no intervention on your part.
    Genreally speaking there isn't really that much a user can actively do to "fix things".. however, suggest you keep all the software on your machine current. You can go to support and see all the 10.6.8 software updats availale. Be careful nto to download the "server" software for 10.6.8 though.
    Niel gave a great suggestin... always back-up your user files.
