Data trouble when exporting data from Access to Oracle

Hey,
I have several tables in Access in which I am exporting to Oracle. The exporting works fine, but some of the ' are getting converted to ? during the export, so any fields that have words like government's or women's are now spelled government?s and women?s. Any ideas on why this would be happening and on how to fix it?
Thanks

What is your database character set in Oracle? What is your NLS_LANG parameter set to on the client?
I'm guessing that your data contains some of Microsoft's special characters (things like curly quotes) rather than the standard ASCII apostrophe. Both the database character set and the client NLS_LANG would have to be configured to a character set that supports those characters in order for the data to be transferred correctly.

  • Date issue when exporting data to Excel from SSRS report, where date is less than 1/1/1900

    Hi,
    I am using SSRS report to display the data from database. In that data, One of the column is DATE. when I am exporting to Excel all that dates are displaying fine except 1/1/1800 12:00 AM. Instead of 1/1/1800 12:00 AM it is displaying XXXXXXXXXXXXXX values.
    Please help me to fix the issue.
    Please let me know if more clarification required.
    Thanks In advance.

    Hello,
    We can use Cstr() function to convert the Date type data to String data. Suppose we have a field named DateTime, please refer to the expression below:
    =Cstr(Fields!DateTime.Value)
    Then we can get a string type data. There is an article about SSRS expression, you can refer to it.

  • Trouble maintaining original "date taken" info and metadata when exporting TIFFs from original CR2 files.

    When exporting TIFFs (from original RAW), I noticed my metadata said the "date created" was the day of export. I want to be able to access the date the original image was taken as opposed to the day I exported it. Is there a way to maintain original date of image taken in my info? I couldn't seem to find it after I exported my TIFFs...

    I just tested this with LR 5.5 Mac OS 10.9.3 and it works correctly for me.
    To troubleshoot your problem:
    1. Which version of LR and which platform (Mac, Windows)?
    2. Which tool or command are you using to examine Date Created of the exported TIFF?
    3. Upload a sample TIFF showing the problem to Dropbox or similar and post the URL here. This will allow us to take a look in detail.

  • Data lost when exporting from iPhoto?

    When exporting photos from iPhoto, the descriptions of the photos (here bird and animal names) get lost.  Is this true, or are we doing it incorrectly?
    Thanks!
    Ed

    It depends on how you exported.  To get the ITPC fileds written to the file it must be exported via File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with Kind = JPEG and the two checkboxes checked:
    That will embed the metadata into the exported file.

  • How do I keep the date/time when exporting photos?

    When exporting photos from Photos.app on my Mac, it doesn't use the metadata that it displays in Photos--it uses the current date/time. So when I export a photo from 2010, it says it's dated 2015 when I import it into Aperture.
    Is there a way to export an image with its original timestamp? Is this a bug? Thanks.

    If you are editing tif files, then you have only a couple of choices.
    Flatten the image before you save it.  This will reduce it down to one layer. That's the smallest you can get.
    When you first open the image, look to see if it's 8 bit or 16 bit tif.  It won't help you, but if the image is 8 bit, and you save it as 16 bit, you will have dramatically increased the size of the file for nothing.  If it's started as 16, no worries!
    check if you are saving with compression.   Tif compression is lossless, so unless you did something like resize+resample, it remains the same bit density, etc, so should be just as printable as what they sent you (unless you messed up!).
    Cheers!

  • Questions when export data to excel

    My platform
    Windows2000(Chinese version).
    Oracle 9i R2 charset ZHS16GBK
    Patch 2323002,2632931,2499827
    JDev903 + BI Beans 903a
    There are two problems
    1. Everything goes well. But when the project is deployed, the Export function will return a error page.
    2. When export data to .csv or .txt using BIB control "ExportOptions", it appears that the chinese fonts all are displayed as "????"

    We need more information on issue #1. What information does the the
    error page contain? If it contains a stack trace / BI Beans error, then
    please post it. If it does not, then please look for an exception
    stack / error in the servlet log. And finally, does the export work
    when running the project in JDeveloper?
    Issue #2 can be resolved by setting the export character encoding.
    What type of application are you trying to deploy (
    JSP, UIX, or Generated Servlet Application )? The mechanism for
    specifying the export character encoding is different for each type of
    application. UTF-8 encoding works on most systems so that is a safe
    default, but the Chinese version of Windows may require a more specific
    character set, such as WINDOWS-936 ( Simplified Chinese ), BIG5 (
    Traditional Chinese ), or WINDOWS-950 ( Traditional Chinese).

  • How can you manage data usage when cellular data is off, but you are using WiFi where your WiFi provider charges for data use?

    I spend quite a few months each year in Canada where I use a Telus Cellular Hub device which is also my WiFi Router.  My iPhone 5 has Cellular Data set to "Off" which insures I won't be charged via my Verizon Wireless Service Provider for charges while in Canada.  Trouble is Telus, Rogers and all the Canadian Internet Providers charge for all Data going through their Systems.  Again, My Cellular Data on the iPhone 5 is turned off, but I use WiFi for such things as checking the Weather, or FaceBook, or searching the Web. 
    I believe that things may be happening in the background from various Apps that use quite a lot of Data.  It could be that iCloud is part of the issue with things being backed up automatically.  It also could be that Apps like AP or other News Apps are sending large amounts of Data in the photos associated with their New Stories, etc.  I typically turn off the App Store "Updates" such that they don't automatically load.  The FaceBook works now posted videos play when you are just scrolling through the News Feed. 
    I have been trying to fine an article somewhere which focuses on this specific problem but unfortunately many if not most articles are about folks worried about using Cellular Data while in a WiFi environment when their Cellular Data is turned on. 
    Does anyone know of a fairly comprehensive article about what settings on which Apps might reduce the Data Usage when Cellular Data is turned "Off" but you are going through a Service Provider who charges for all Data Accessed even when you are using WiFi?

    Thanks for your comments, it is clear you understand my plight.  The trouble is fully understanding what Apps and App Features are transferring data in the background any time you happen to turn WiFi to on (even if you have had it off most of the day or night).  Obviously things like Location Services can constantly be sending and receiving data from my iPhone without any action on my part.  Also if you have things like photo backup on the iCloud then each time you take a photo you are sending a copy out.  All App Updates if set to Automatic also can add up to quite a bit of Data.  Reading the News on AP or scrolling through FB News Feed is actually adding up to a lot of Data.  There could be other culprits that I am not even thinking of.  I don't want to turn Apps like Find My Phone off or turn iCloud off due to loosing the value of such a program entirely.  Again thanks for your quick response. 

  • Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?

    Why would I want to change JPEG quality of photos when exporting them from iPhoto?  Changing the quality of the print changes the size of the saved file and thus impacts the speed at which it is moved on the internet.  But other than size of the file, what is the advantage of changing the quality?

    I have no idea why you would want to do anything
    Some people want lower quality to reduce file size for different reasons
    It is an option - if you do pot want to do that do not use that option

  • CS5: Bug when exporting directly from PPro with hardware MPE?

    For the record, I'm using:
    A GTX-480 (unsupported)
    The hardware MPE-enabling hack (unsupported)
    The latest version of the nVidia drivers (257.whatever)
    I discovered an issue, of sorts, when exporting directly from Premiere CS5, versus using the "Queue" option to send to AME. I was exporting from an NTSC DV Standard sequence to a 320x240 H.264, in which I had enable cropping and trimmed a bit off the sides and top and bottom of the source; the Output tab was summarily set to "Scale to Fit". With hardware MPE enabled in the Project Settings, the export would be the proper final dimensions (320x240), but any area that was cropped off was instead padded with black. The actual video content was then squeezed and malformed into the area not occupied by the black bars.
    I found that, if I disabled hardware MPE or sent the export through AME by use of the Queue button (instead of Export), then the export was performed properly--the video was cropped correctly and then the video stretched to the borders of the exported video, maintaining the desired aspect ratio.
    As I mentioned at the outset, I'm breaking a couple rules and perhaps tempting fate with others, but before I go about rolling back my drivers and the like, has anyone noticed a similar issue?
    ADDENDUM: By the way, the export doesn't need to come from a sequence. If I load up a source clip into the Source Monitor, and export from there using the process outlined above, I get the same issue. This would seem to indicate, to me, that this is due to some incompatibility with my card, its driver and hardware MPE...

    Did he demo renders or exports?
    About 11 minutes in, he [Dave] demos accelerated H.264 renders.
    Harm Millaard wrote:
    AFAIK MPE only works with renders, not with encoding.
    Well, he did both, actually--but the quote above is a typo on my part. I meant to say "exports" or "encodes." The last couple minutes of the aforementioned demo video are dedicated to exporting a sequence directly from Premiere, and having the benefit of hardware MPE. That's where I'm getting the issue I've outlined above; with hardware MPE enabled, and using the "Export" versus AME "Queue" button/function, I get the strange black outline. With software MPE or through AME, all is well.

  • How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    How can you keep the highest iphone 4s Video quality the same when exporting it from iMovie.

    InDesign's PDF export engine does not transcode your videos, they are embedded exactly as they were in the original file. The Flash Player runtime which displays video inside PDF files may not show a perfect match to Quicktime etc. because most video playback tools aren't designed for a color-calibrated workflow, but they should be close.
    The playback quality (blocking and aliasing) will be affected if the clip is not playing at 100% (screen pixels != video pixels) and in PDFs with the standard video player widget, that will only ever happen when you use 'floating window' mode. PDF pages have physical dimensions, so viewing them at "100%" does not make them match screen pixels.
    If you don't mind the video clip being smaller than the media annotation in which it's playing, then use my free upgrade to the Acrobat playback widget - VideoPlayerX - which maintains 1:1 pixel scale until the page is zoomed out too far for it to fit. You can install the widget into InDesign so it's used by default when exporting.

  • Diff b/w Data Mart & Generate Export data source

    HI All
    Here  i want one small clarification.
    will you plze help me regarding of the following
    I want to know the Difference between Data Mart & Generate Export data source.
    In my point of you both are little bit same.
    any way some budy explain with full details.
    If you provide any help doc its too help ful for me.
    Regards n Thanks
    kgb

    Hi kgbm,
    This my point of view:
    1)DataMart: in BI you use this term for identify a specific area of analysis in your DataWarehouse. Generally it is obtained with an aggregation of data of other structures, or combining internal data with external data.
    2)Generate Export D.S.: it is the technical tool to obtain an extractor to feed other structures, called DataMart.

  • Migrating from Access to Oracle

    Hello......
    I am trying to migrate a table from Access to Oracle. It contains approx 850,000 rows, and I tried using SQL Server's DTS Import/Export tool to perform the migration. However, this export/import has been running for almost 48 hours (crazy, huh?!), and I'm only at 350,000 records loaded. This tool is obviously not sufficient for a migration of this size.
    Can anyone suggest a better way for me to go about this?
    Thanks,
    -Christine

    Hi,
    If you have DDL structures in Oracle, then you can save the access data as .csv file format. you using any opensource tool you can migrate it.
    Or you can go for sql loader also.

  • Package hangs when exporting data to Access DB when running under SQL agent & proxy - works fine under BIDS

    Hi all - - I have searched every nook & cranny to find a similar issue, but the ones I have found have not solved my problem.
    I have a simple package that exports data from a SQL database (2008R2) to several Access databases (Client needs them to be mdb, not accdb).  The whole thing works fine in BIDS, but even though we have created a proxy for the SQL agent, the job runs
    without throwing an error, updates the time stamp on the databases, but does not do anything to them.  I created a log file with both the BIDS version & SQL agent version, and the logs look very similar, except that the BIDS one is about 3 times longer.
     The SQL agent one shows no obvious errors or issues.
    I do have the Access database engine installed on both the server where the SQL agent is running as well as my development environment.
    The job does have the 32 bit runtime option checked as well.
    The DBAs are working on the proxy & permissions, and I am wondering if they have missed something in that arena, or if there is something else I may have missed in settings on the package?
    We have been beating on this for days now, so any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi John,
    Not sure what "but does not do anything to them" means, but I believe once you start running your job with a domain account based proxy it must work (JET uses Admin behind the scenes to actually manipulates on the db that needs to be impersonated).
