Creating a header for a .CSV file

Hi,
I have looked through the forums and cannot find a solution for creating a header for a csv file. I am using Labview 8.2. I want a label for each column at the top of the file and then I will append new rows to the file as the data is collected. An example of what I am looking for is attached.
It would also be nice to have the labels descending in the first column, pretty much a transposed version of what was described above.
Thanks,
Gary

Thank you very much. That worked well.
If i wanted to transpose the data how would I do that? I can get the header to be vertical, but I cant get the data to append to the 2nd column , and then the third and so on with the data descending from top to bottom. I attached an example of what I might want the file to look like. Each column would be added one at a time.

To create an header for Open Hub extract

Hi guys,
How do i get an header for an open hub extract for a CSV file, an header consisting of the field names technical or otherwise.
Thanks,
Your help will be greatly appreciated

hi,
Field definition
On the Field Definition tab page you define the properties of the fields that you want to transfer.
We recommend that you use a template as a basis when you create the open hub destination. The template should be the object from which you want to update the data. This ensures that all the fields of the template are available as fields for the open hub destination. You can edit the field list by removing or adding fields. You can also change the properties of these fields.
You have the following options for adding new fields:
●     You enter field names and field properties, independent of a template.
●     You select an InfoObject from the Template InfoObject column. The properties of the InfoObject are transferred into the rows.
●     You choose Select Template Fields. A list of fields are available as fields for the open hub destination that are not contained in the current field list. You transfer a field to the field list by double-clicking on it. This allows you to transfer fields that had been deleted back into the field list.
If you want to define the properties of a field so that they are different from the properties of the template InfoObject, delete the template InfoObject entries for the corresponding field and change the properties of the field. If there is a reference to a template InfoObject, the field properties are always transferred from this InfoObject.
The file or database table that is generated from the open hub destination is made up of the fields and their properties and not the template InfoObjects of the fields.
If the template for the open hub destination is a DataSource, field SOURSYSTEM is automatically added to the field list with reference to InfoObject 0SOURSYSTEM. This field is required if data from heterogeneous source systems is being written to the same database table. The data transfer process inserts the source system ID that is relevant for the connected DataSource. You can delete this field if it is not needed.
If you have selected Database Table as the destination and Semantic Key as the property, the field list gets an additional column in which you can define the key fields for the semantic key.
In the Format column, you can specify whether you want to transfer the data in the internal or external format. For example, if you choose External Format here, leading zeros will be removed from a field that has an ALPHA conversion routine when the data is written to the file or database table.

How to create column header text while downloading file

RDBMS sync creating it's own accountactions.csv file

Trying to set up to do batch uploads of network devices and Users.
I've created a small test accountactions.csv file and placed it on an FTP server.
When we try to get ACS to pull this file we get this error in the report
"No import CSV file on FTP Server - nothing to process"
However in the same directory the ACS server does create an empty file with a name of accountactions.csv.read .
So now in the directory we've got two files
accountactions.csv
accountactions.csv.read
Any idea what is going on? Have we missed something simple?

Hi, use proper format for that file. See:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_soft/csacsapp/csapp33/user/ag.htm#wp395615
Action codes which are needed for VSA importing are listed in:
http://www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc/product/access/acs_soft/csacsapp/csapp33/user/ag.htm#wp393038
basically you need action codes - 350 to 355.

Unable to create shared mailboxes from a csv file

Hi,
I have a list of 130 shared mailboxes that I must create. So I created a CSV file like this:
Name,Alias,OrganizationalUnit,Database,UserPrincipalName
John Smith,jsmith,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,[email protected]
Mark Flone,mflone,domain.com/accounts/shared,mailbox database A,[email protected]
ETC.....
The list is ready and it is saved.
import-csv C:\path | New-mailbox -Shared
the Error is the following:
"Cannot bind parameter 'Name' to the target. Exception setting "Name": "The property can't be empty."
I went into my spreadsheet and Trimmed everything, then saved and still the same error result.
Then I tried the following:
import-csv C:\temp\sharedMailboxCreationTest.csv | ForEach-Object {New-Mailbox -shared -Name $_.Name -Alias $_.Alias -OrganizationalUnit $_.OrganizationalUnit -UserPrincipalName $_.UPN -Database $_.Database}
The Error:
"Cannot bind argument to parameter 'UserPrincipalName' because it is an empty string."
What am I missing here?
Alexis

You have UserPrincipalName column heading in the csv file so this should be your cmdlet.
import-csv C:\temp\sharedMailboxCreationTest.csv | ForEach-Object {New-Mailbox -shared -Name $_.Name -Alias $_.Alias -OrganizationalUnit $_.OrganizationalUnit -UserPrincipalName $_.UserPrincipalName -Database $_.Database}

Creating multiple instances for a single file in B2B

Hi,
I have a requirement to read the camt.053 file from the remote partner using Oracle B2B and send the file to oracle AIA and insert the data in the ERP database tables. I am able to read the file successfully through B2B using listening channel and send the data to AIA and insert the data in ERP tables but, if there is any error occured while inserting the data in the ERP tables it is creating multiple instances(6 message count) for the same file in B2B reports. where as it is creating only one entry in reports in case of successful insertion. I have not given any retry count in listening channel nor in the database adapter in SOA/AIA composite. I am confused from where B2B is retrying the message ? Do i need to set any system properties? Could you please guide me to resolve this issue?
Regards,
Nishanth.

App message delivery is not retried in B2B, rather failed messages are delivered to the IP_IN_QUEUE. Please enable the logging for B2B engine in TRACE 32 mode and run a test to reproduce the behaviour. Post the log here or mail across to my id (in my profile).

How to create complecated Header for JTable in a JApplet ?

I have one JTable in a JApplet.
I need to create a complecated header for the table. For that I have used a downloaded code in the URL http://www2.gol.com/users/tame/swing/examples/JTableExamples1.html (First example).
Instead of "GroupableHeaderExample.java", I have used my code "StatusReportPopupMenu.java".
The program runs properly in appletviewer. But, when I try to open the same in IE 5.5, first it shows the message "Loading Java Applet" . Then it goes blank. The status bar shows the message: Start: applet not initialized". At the Java console of the browser, I could see the Exception as given below:

Create external table on a CSV file with a variable number of delimiters

Hi experts,
I was wondering what the best approach for the following issue.
I'm trying to create an external table on a file which has in each record (on a new line 'RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE') a variabel number of delimiters. By example my delimiter is a comma , in the first record I have 100 comma's in the second only 60, the next 80 etc.etc.
Is there a way to create a external table on this file?
Thanks in advance.

alter the source is no option, unfortunalty. But is suggested there would be a sensible workway to handle it. An to solve it I want to pivot i, but first I think I need to have the file in Oracle through a external table.

How to create a method for reading a file

i tried to make it as static method for reading a file and
then to return string
is this code correct?
          public static String fileMaterial(String fileName)
               fileReader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(fileName));
               info = fileReader.readLine();
               while(school != null)     {
                    return info;
                    info = fileReader.readLine();

I created a class you might want to look at. I come from a world of C and love fgets() and other FILE stream functions. I created a class that uses the Java I/O buts to the calling application behaves like fgets and such. The block of code where I do the calling in the calling program even looks like C. In my class I capture almost all errors and set error buffers to the errors. The calling program looks at the return to see if it succedded or errored.
BuffIO new = BuffIO.fopen("fiilename", "r");
String s;
if((s = new.fgets()) == null)
System.err.println("error reading file: " + new.ferror());
That would be waht the calling program does

Index - How to create an index for multiple InDesign files?

Hi everyone,
I'm using InDesign CS2 to create a 250 page catalogue. Most of it is finished now, and I've come to creating the index.
The catalogue is spread over about 10 InDesign files. How do I create an index for this? No paragraph styles were set up when it was started, but there are character styles.
I've done some searching - does it need to be booked so I Can index? And can I book it without paragraph styles?
(I've only been using InDesign for about a year, mostly self taught.)
Thanks in advance :)
Naomi

Creating a book from your files should be no problem at all. ID does
i not
synchronize styles across documents -- unless you order it to! (That's what the checkboxes at the left of the book documents are for. Do Not Use, in your case.)
The Index function itself is book-savvy, but you might want to search this forum for a few recurring problems.

Dynamic Resource name for Excel/csv files

Hi All,
Reading from a source excel (as well as csv) file, I tried passing the resource name via a variable which is set to contain the name of the file (refresh). However, on execution, the file name shows up with an additional "\" character without being specified in the variable text causing the interface to face on load step.
The error says:
ODI-1227: Task SrcSet0 (Loading) fails on the source FILE connection <ConnNameHere>.
Caused By: java.sql.SQLException: ODI-40438: File not found: C:\DirectoryNameHere\ /OTD.
Is this expected behavior where one needs to escape the special character?
I've verified that the extra / is not present in either the variable value or the directory for the Physical Schema.
TIA.

Schema advice for huge csv file

Guys, I need an advice: Huge csv file (500 millions rows) to load in a table and I did. But now I need to alter the columns (they came all as varchar(50)). I'm just change one column and it's taking age...what kind of schema should I adopt? So far I applied
a simple data flow but I am wondering if I should do something like:
drop table
create table (all varchar)
data flow
alter table
No sure about

Is this a once off/ad-hoc load or something that'll be ongoing/BAU?
If it's ongoing then Arthur's post is the standard approach.
create a staging table with varchar(50s) or whatever. Load into that, then from that staging table go into your 'normal' table that has the correct column types.
If it's a once off, what I'd do is create a new table with the correct data types. Do a bulk insert from your table with 500mil rows.
then drop the old table and rename the new table.
Converting the columns in your 500mil table one by one is going to take a very long time, it'll be faster to do one bulk insert into a table with the correct schema
