CSV file reading using UTL_FILE at run time

Hi,
I have to read CSV file using UTL_FILE.
but Folder contains Many CSV files.
I dont know there name.So i have to read csv file at run time.
Please let me know how should we achieve this?
Thanks

place the following in a shell script, say "list_my_files.ksh"
ls -l > my_file_list.datthen run the shell script using dbms_scheduler;
begin
dbms_scheduler.create_program (program_name   => 'a_test_proc'
                              ,program_type   => 'EXECUTABLE'
                              ,program_action => '/home/bluefrog/list_my_files.ksh'
                              ,number_of_arguments => 0
                              ,enabled => true);
end;
/then open "my_file_list.dat" using UTL_FILE, read all file names and choose the one you require.

Crystal reports using xml at run time??

Post Author: avnkkishore
CA Forum: General
Hi,
I have very simple requirement.
I would like to create a crystal
report using XML. This
XML file will be decided at run time
(not at design time).
Hence i have added a crystal report viewer control to my windows form and did
not choose any data source (i left it blank currently). Now i am trying to load
XML file with the following simple code.
            PropertyBag
crLogOnDetails = new PropertyBag();
crLogOnDetails["Local XML File"] = @"C:\Hosts.xml";
crLogOnDetails["Local Schema File"] = @"C:\Hosts.xsd";
ConnectionInfo conn = new ConnectionInfo();
conn.Attributes = crLogOnDetails;
            // create
"Host" table
CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table tbl;
            tbl = new
CrystalDecisions.ReportAppServer.DataDefModel.Table();
            tbl.Name =
"Host";
tbl.ConnectionInfo = conn;
rcDoc.DatabaseController.AddTable(tbl, null);
I am getting exception exactly at the above line (i.e. when adding table to
Database Controller) saying "COMException was unhandled" with error code
0x80004005 Unspecified error.
Can any one please help me regarding how to resolve this.
Thanks in advance,
Kishore

I am using VB6 as the front end and Microsoft Access to hold the data and Crystal Reports 8.5. I have a staff name parameter that I want the user to select which staff name to print the report. If there is
a new staff the name is not in the list of parameters.  How do I add to the parameter list at run time from the staff table?

The Apache axis2 jar files are not taking at run time

While running the application I was getting the following errors. The error is getting at run time only. It has compiled successfully.
It ran under eclipse without any issues. But with Apache axis we are getting following error trace while uploading to server. The Apache axis2 jar files are not taking at run time.But compiling successfully.
The application is running under Oracle R12 server.I didn't find any option to set class path for run time in R12 server.
Using Java version is 1.6 and Apache axis2.1.6.2

Hello,
I too am trying to use Axis2 application in R12. But getting the following error:
java.lang.classCastException: com.sun.xml.messaging.saaj.soap.ver1_1.SoapMessageFactory1_1Impl cannot be cast to oracle.webservices.soap.VersionedMessageFactory
If I run the application standalone from java command line it works fine. I think the error could be because of some oracle app jars getting picked up inatead of my application jars. How to make sure that my application jars get picked up instead of oracle jars
I tried loading my jar file and then setting it as contextClassLoader using "Thread.currentThread().setContextClassLoader", but this did not help.
Can you please let me know what can be tried to fix this
Thanks

CSV file read

Is there a standard FM which handles csv file read? I am currently using a 'split at' to separate values but this fails when some strings ( within quotes) have commas.
Eg:
333,khdfs, "Company name", 87348, " Name1, Name2"
In this scenerio, the last field in quotes gets split into 2. I cannot handle this in the progrm because the last field does not always have a comma split. Any suggestions?

Hi Suker ,
First you remove all the Quotes , then split into coma (,).
I mean to say --
REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '"' IN <string_name> WITH SPACE.
Now split the string at the coma - -
SPLIT AT ....

Data formatting and reading a CSV file without using Sqlloader

I am reading a csv file to an Oracle table called sps_dataload. The table is structured based on the record type of the data at the beginning of
each record in the csv file. But the first two lines of the file are not going to be loaded to the table due to the format.
Question # 1:
How can I skip reading the first two lines from my csv file?
Question # 2:
There are more fields in the csv file than there are number of columns in my table. I know I can add filler as an option, but then there are
about 150 odd fields which are comma-separated in the file and my table has 8 columns to load from the file. So, do I really have to use filler
for 140 times in my script or, there is a better way to do this?
Question # 3:
This is more of an extension of my question above. The csv file has fields with block quotes - I know this could be achieved in sql loader when we mention Occassionally enclosed by '"'.
But can this be doable in the insert as created in the below code?
I am trying to find the "wrap code" button in my post, but do not see it.

Justin, thanks. I did happen to change my pl sql procedure using utl_file.get_file and modifying the instr function based on position of ',' in the file, but my procedure is getting really big and too complex to debug. So I got motivated to use external tables or sql loader as plan b.
As I was reading more about creating an external table as an efficient way and thus believe I can perhaps build an extern table with my varying selection from the file. But I am still unclear if I can construct my external table by choosing different fields in a record based on a record identifier string value (which is the first field of any record). I guess I can, but I am looking for the construct as to how am I going to use the instr function for selecting the field from the file while creating the table.

While I was reading the external table documentation, I thought I could achieve similar things by using position_spec option, but I am not getting behind its parameters. I have highlighted italics in the code above(from LOAD WHEN....FIELDS....), the part I think I am going to use, but not sure of it's construct.
Thank you for your help!! Appreciate your thoughts on this..

Csv file reading and voltage and current plotting with respect to time samples XY plotting

Hallo,
I've been struggling with reading a comma separated value (csv) file from another instrument (attached). I need to plot this data for analysis. I have 5 column of data with numbers of rows, the first three row is the information of the measurement. I want to read 4th row as string and rest of the row as numbers. I want to plot 2nd column (i1) with respect to TIMESTAMP; 4th column(u2) wrt TIMESTAMP. And finally plotting i1 (x-axis) vs.. u2 (y-axis) in labview. Could anyone help me.
In excel its so easy to plot but I don't know how its done in labview.

Start by opening the file. Then use the Read Text File function. You can right-click on it and configure it to read lines. First make it read 3 lines (this is your extra header data). Then make it read a single line. That will give you your channel names. Then read the rest of the file (disable the read by line and wire a -1 into the number of bytes to read). Then use the Spreadsheet String to Array function to give you your data.
I would recommend going through the LabVIEW tutorials if you are really new at this.

Csv file processing using external table

Dear All,
Our database is oracle 10g r2 and OS is solaris
We would receive csv files to a particular directory on server each day.
File Format look like:
H00,SOURCE_NAME,FILE_CREATED_DATE
RECORD_TYPE,EMP_ID,EMP_NAME,EMP_DOB(DDMMYYYY),EMP_HIRE_DATE(DDMMYYYY),EMP_LOCATION
T00,RECORD_COUNT
EMPLOYEE TABLE STRUCTURE
EMP_ID                   NOT NULL    NUMBER ,
EMP_NAME            NOT NULL    VARCHAR2(10) ,
EMP_DOB                                  DATE,
EMP_HIRE_DATE   NOT NULL     DATE,
EMP_LOCATION                VARCHAR2(80)
Sample File:
H00,ABC,21092013
"R01",1,"EMP1","14021986","06072010","LOC1"
"R01",20000000000,"EMP2","14021-987","06072011",""

"R01",4,4,"14021989","06072013",
T00,4
we need to validate each record excluding header and trailer for:
DATATYPE, LENGTH,OPTIONALITY, and other date validations such as EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be less than EMP_DOB
In case of any data errors we need to send a response file for corresponding source file.
we have predefined error codes to be sent in the response file.
ERR001    EMP_ID can not be null
ERR002    EMP_ID exceeds 10 digits
ERR003    EMP_ID is not a number
ERR004    EMP_NAME   has to be text
ERR005    EMP_NAME length can not exceed 10
ERR006    EMP_NAME   can not be null
ERR007    EMP_DOB is not a date
ERR008    EMP_DOB is not in ddmmyyyy format
ERR009    EMP_HIRE_DATE is not a date
ERR010    EMP_HIRE_DATE is not in ddmmyyyy format
ERR011    EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be null
ERR012    EMP_LOCATION    has to be text
ERR013    EMP_LOCATION   length can not exceed 80
ERR014    EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be less than EMP_DOB
ERR015    Field missing in the record
ERR016    More number of fields than allowed
1.Do I need to create external table before processing each file.(EMP1.txt,EMP2.txt)?
2.How to generate these error codes in case of respective failure scenarios and to log into an exception table?
3.response file needs to have entire record and a concatination of all the error codes in the next line.
4.what would be a better approach among
creating an external table with all char(2000) fields and writing a select statement
such as select * from ext_table where (emp id is not null and length(emp_id)<=10 and....to select only proper data);
or creating the external table to be same as employee table and creating a bad file? if this is the preferred how can I generate the custom error codes?
Could you please help me in achieving this!
Warm Regards,
Shankar.

You can do a one-time creation of an external table. After that, you can either overwrite the existing text file or alter the location. In the example below I have split your original sample file into two files, in order to demonstrate altering the location. You can make the external table all varchar2 fields as large as they need to be to accommodate all possible data. If you then create a staging table and rejects table of the same structure, you can create a trigger on the staging table such that, when you insert from the external table to the staging table, it inserts into either the employee table or rejects table with the concatenated error list. If you want this in a file, then you can just spool a select from the rejects table or use some other method such as utl_file. The following is a partial example. Another alternative would be to use SQL*Loader to load directly into the staging table without an external table.

BULK INSERT from a text (.csv) file - read only specific columns.

I am using Microsoft SQL 2005, I need to do a BULK INSERT from a .csv I just downloaded from paypal. I can't edit some of the columns that are given in the report. I am trying to load specific columns from the file.
bulk insert Orders
FROM 'C:\Users\*******\Desktop\DownloadURL123.csv'
   WITH
              FIELDTERMINATOR = ',',
                FIRSTROW = 2,
                ROWTERMINATOR = '\n'
So where would I state what column names (from row #1 on the .csv file) would be used into what specific column in the table.
I saw this on one of the sites which seemed to guide me towards the answer, but I failed.. here you go, it might help you:
FORMATFILE [ = 'format_file_path' ]
Specifies the full path of a format file. A format file describes the data file that contains stored responses created using the bcp utility on the same table or view. The format file should be used in cases in which:
The data file contains greater or fewer columns than the table or view.
The columns are in a different order.
The column delimiters vary.
There are other changes in the data format. Format files are usually created by using the bcp utility and modified with a text editor as needed. For more information, see bcp Utility.

Do you need more than 2 rows? I did not include all the columns from the actual csv file but most of it, I am planning on taking to the first table these specfic columns: date, to email address, transaction ID, item title, item ID, buyer ID, item URL.
The other table, I don't have any values from here because I did not list them, but if you do this for me I could probably figure the other table out.
Thank you very much.

Sort records in a csv file in the descending order of time created attribute

I have an excel (.csv) file with the following column headers :-
Client,
SourceNetworkAddress
,TimeCreated,
LogonType
,User,
Message
Values like :- ABC, 10.5.22.27, 11/23/2014 9:02:21 PM, 10, testuser
The file is a combination of a report generated everyday using multiple scripts. The data is appended each day therefore, I would like to sort the final output file in descending order of time created (a combination of date and time) fetched from events
i.e. the latest record with the latest date and time should be at the top of the list.
I tried using the following command however, I get a sorted list according to the date but not the time. The command does not consider the AM/PM mentioned in the time instead simply sorts them as per numbers
Import-Csv "C:\Users\a\Desktop\report.csv" | sort Timecreated -Descending | Export-csv "C:\Users\a\Desktop\report_sorted.csv" -force -NoTypeInformation
So if I have a record with 9:02:21 PM(latest) and a record with time 10.44.10 AM on the same date, the command will sort the list with record 10:44:10 AM first and then record with 9:02:21 PM however it should be the opposite as per descending order.
Kindly help !!

Hi jrv,
Thanks for your response. However, I get errors while I run this command in Powershell :-
Import-Csv <file> | Select Client,SourceNetworkAddress,LogonType,User,Message,@{N='TimeCreated';E={[datetime]($_.TimeCreated)} | Sort TimeCreated -Descending | Export-csv <file> -force -NoTypeInformation

You are missing a second curly brace -

CSV file for users who have one-time password email address

Hi Guys,
I am trying to extract the list of users who have one-time password email address in FIM or users who have registered with one-time password reset authentication workflow. I need to get their email addresses in CSV file.
Regards

Take a look at:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/3616.how-to-use-powershell-to-export-all-users-who-have-registered-for-self-service-password-reset-sspr.aspx
The script queries a WorkFlow called "Password Reset AuthN Workflow" and returns its ObjectID, then uses it to do a new query searching for "Users" with these parameters:
AuthN WorkFlow Registered = ObjectID of "Password Reset AuthN Workflow"
The script exports these details to a CSV.
Also, all OTP email addresses should be stored in the "msidmOneTimePasswordEmailAddress" attribute in the FIM Portal.

Hi,
see your other post http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=330&message.id=13914
Also, you can, specify to display the front panel of your VI when you specify your VI in your sequence file.
There are examples, for dialog panel using LabVIEW, in the examples folder of TestStand and on the NI Web Site.

How can I have a csv file read from excel to labview.

Hi,
I would like to read multiple csv files from excel to labview, creating a duplicate of the tables in excel, which would allow me to then draw some graphs for data analysis and comparison between the two.
Are there any examples that could be useful to what I am trying to do?
Thanks

From one of the csv files, I only require 3 of the columns. Is there a way to only read that part of the csv file?
No. The characters in a file are just one long string and delimiters and linefeeds are special characters that defined where fields and lines start and end. As such, columns are interlaced into the file and consists of many small sections, where the position depends on the number of characters in each field, which is typically variable. You really need to read the entire file, then only look at the interesting columns later.
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .
