DTS is Reading Created_Date column "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000" as DBTYPE_STR and causing datatype mismatch with destination (DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP)

We have internal and external load Step 1 is internal load from source sql to destination flat file and step 2 is external load from source flat file to destination sql
Step 1 :Using DTS I am extracting DateTime source Field"2007-08-20 10:46:00.710" from SQL Server
and loading into destination text file as "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000"
Step 2 :Using DTS when I try to load "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000" from text file
to SQL Server it gives the error (Source column 'CREATED_DATE(DBTYPE_STR),destination column
'CREATED_DATE(DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP),Cannot parse input data string beginning at "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000"
My question here DTS is extracting the DateTime source Field "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000" as string (DBTYPE_STR)
instead of DBTIMESTAMP

Hi shimjith,
According to the error message, it indicates that there are data type mismatch between the Source column CREATED_DATE and Destination column CREATED_DATE in the package. Since the text file is already created from the step1, the data type for the CREATED_DATE
column should be DBTIMESTAMP. It seems that the data type for the column is changed in the Flat file.
Here, to fix this issue, please refer to the following suggestions:
Change the data type for the CREATED_DATE column from DBTYPE_STR to DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP in the flat file.
Use some transformation components (like Data Conversion or Derived Column Transformation in later SSIS versions) to change the type for the Source column, then map the new column to the destination column in the SQL table.
If I understand correctly, you are using SQL Server 2000. For better support, I suggest you can upgrade the SQL Server to later versions.
Thanks,

This is pretty surprising and wierd that even Reader 10.1.1 is crashing on your system. It works pefectly for me.
Would it be possible for you to get the crash dump, and upload it, so that I can have a look at the same.
Download PROCDUMP from <http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/dd996900.aspx> and extract it to a folder, say, c:\temp\procdump.exe
Open cmd prompt and type "cd c:\temp".
Launch the browser and open the PDF.
Open task manager, sort processed by name. Two AcroRd32.exe instances should have been launched. Note the PID (a small integer like 5588) corresponding to the AcroRd32.exe with the higher memory usage; this is the process that must be crashing. Note this PID.
On the cmd window, type "procdump -e -ma 5588 c:\temp\01.dmp" (replace 5588 with the actual PID of the process noted in Step 4). Procdump will now wait for the aoolication to crash. If it throws a EULA, accept it.
Perform your steps to cause the crash.
Procdump will have created a dump file at "c:\temp\01.dmp". Zip it up (since it will be 100s of MBs otherwise) and share with me.
Thanks in advance for all your help

Script task to read the column names dynamically and create a table in database based on excel column structure

Hello,
Can anyone help me out to write a vb.net script.
I need to read the column names from excel and based on that column names I need to create a table in database(I have more than one sheet in excel).
For each sheet columns will be changing and should create a table dynamically for each sheet.
Any help would be appreciated.

Refer the below script to read columns in each sheet.
Dim excelfile As String = Dts.Variables("ExcelPath").Value.ToString
Dim connectionstring As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" +
"Data Source=" + excelfile + ";Extended Properties=Excel 8.0"

For Each row As DataRow In dt.Rows
TABCOMMAND(TABCOUNT) = "SELECT * FROM [" & row.Item("TABLE_NAME").ToString & "]"
OLEDBCMD.CommandText = TABCOMMAND(TABCOUNT)
OLEDBCMD.Connection = oledbcon
oledbdatareader = OLEDBCMD.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.KeyInfo)
schemaTable = oledbdatareader.GetSchemaTable()
For Each myfield As DataRow In schemaTable.Rows
For Each myproperty As DataColumn In schemaTable.Columns

You can only manipulate LOBs in PL/SQL because you have to use the DBMS_LOB package.

Read only column in tabular form

There is a not null column ( say SEQ) in a tabular form that is getting an auto value from other process. 2 more columns need user input on each row.I need to make this column(SEQ) as read only.
If I make this column (SEQ) as standard report column then when I submit the newly added row , I always get ORA-20001 error- can not insert NULL into SEQ.. even though I can see there is a value there. Switch ithe column back to text field, the insert went just fine .
How do you solve this read only column issue ?
Thanks a bunch for your help.
Tai

thank you for your reply.
Nope, SEQ is not the first column. Primary Key is and I leave the pK alone.
When I press ADDROW button , tabular form is like the following: ( table alreay has 2 rows), I auto populate SEQ column and I like to make this SEQ column display only.
-- represents checkbox
PK      SEQ      col1           col2
--     1     890          test1
--     2     675          test2

"Ellie,
The first thing you need to do is to read your file in as a spreadsheet file. Then, you display it in a chart.
That sounds simple, but looking at your dataset, there's a few things you should know. First, the "read from spreadsheet VI" is looking for data in columns, like your data set, but columns separated by tabs. Therefore, your data must be saved that way; currently, it doesn't seem that it is. Another thing; you must skip the header portion (labels) of your file when reading.
Next, it would be easier if your time was first, and your data was second in your columns, but that can be overcome. In the VI I am including, I have copied your data set into a file called data.txt, and I've removed the header and separated the columns with a tab. Then, I read in the data, and I break out each column so I can put the time first, and then I combine them again into a cluster so it can be displayed on an XY chart.
Take a look!

I intend to read from a .txt file that contains a column of numbers. After reading I want to display it as a waveform. In fact the numbers represent points along a waveform/graph of Flow vs. time. Thus I want to have this info in the chart or graph with flow in the y0axis and time in the x-axis. Can someone give me some detailed help please? Thank you in advance.

All you have to do is use Read From Spreadsheet File.vi that's on the File I/O palette. For your example .txt, set the Transpose input to true and wire the First Row output to a waveform graph. The only problem I see is that since your file doesn't contain any sampling info, the time axis will be relative. If have that information elsewhere, then you can put a build waveform function between the read and the graph. Wire the First Row output to the Y input Build Waveform and add t0 and dt values. I've attached an example.

How to read the column name of a table from sap system using C#?

Hi!!
I am using SAP .NET connector and creating a windows application.
Now I wanna read the column name when a table name is given....
Connection is done, but I don't know the code to read the column names alone...
Can anyone help me with the code??

fine!!
So if i give the table name, which the RFC_READ_TABLE function module have, will it run properly? or i wanna change all the codes in order to support RFC_READ_TABLE function module?
Because from the beginning I was using BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETLIST function, but my client requirement is to use ERP function module RFC_READ_TABLE, he didn't give any table name also..
This is my code: What I have to change in this???
ECCDestinationConfig ECCDestination = new ECCDestinationConfig();
            RfcDestinationManager.RegisterDestinationConfiguration(ECCDestination);
            RfcDestination rfcDest = null;
            rfcDest = RfcDestinationManager.GetDestination(a);
                RfcRepository repo = rfcDest.Repository;
                IRfcFunction customerList = repo.CreateFunction("BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETLIST");
                IRfcTable addressData = customerList.GetTable("AddressTable"));
                int j = addressData.Metadata.LineType.FieldCount;
                for (int i = 0; i < j; i++)
                    RfcElementMetadata metadata = addressData.GetElementMetadata(i);

Unable to read last column in FCC

Hi Experts,
I have a simple fcc to bapi scenario....
I have two questions
Firstly ..what is the limit on the number of fields , I mean number of columns in the input file????
Secondly.. Im facing a strange issue where the last column is not being read if it empty , and being read (as i see it in comm channel monitoring) only when it has a value...
Pls share ur thoughts

Hi Teja,
> Firstly ..what is the limit on the number of fields , I mean number of columns in the input file????
There is no limit, you can use any number of fields based on your requirements.
> Secondly.. Im facing a strange issue where the last column is not being read if it empty , and being read (as i see it in comm >channel monitoring) only when it has a value...
If you want to read that fields always(if value is there or not) then in the mapping use map with default node function.

Reg: read excel column and insert into table.

hi Friends,
      i wanted to read the data from Excel and insert into in my oracle tables.
      can you provide the link or example script.
    how to read the column value from excel and insert into table.
please help.

< unnecessary reference to personal blog removed by moderator >
Here are the steps:
1) First create a directory and grant read , write , execute to the user from where you want to access the flat files and load it.
2) Write a generic function to load PIPE delimited flat files:
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD ( p_table in varchar2,
p_dir in varchar2 DEFAULT ‘YOUR_DIRECTORY_NAME’,
P_FILENAME in varchar2,
p_ignore_headerlines IN INTEGER DEFAULT 1,
p_delimiter in varchar2 default ‘|’,
p_optional_enclosed in varchar2 default ‘”‘ )
return number
is
– FUNCTION TABLE_LOAD
– PURPOSE: Load the flat files i.e. only text files to Oracle
– tables.
– This is a generic function which can be used for
– importing any text flat files to oracle database.
– PARAMETERS:
– P_TABLE
– Pass name of the table for which import has to be done.
– P_DIR
– Name of the directory where the file is been placed.
– Note: The grant has to be given for the user to the directory
– before executing the function
– P_FILENAME
– The name of the flat file(a text file)
– P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES
– By default we are passing 1 to skip the first line of the file
– which are headers on the Flat files.
– P_DELIMITER
– Dafault “|” pipe is been passed.
– P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
– Optionally enclosed by ‘ ” ‘ are been ignored.

‘.txt’,
‘_’ || TO_CHAR(SYSDATE, ‘DD_MON_RRRR_HH24_MI_SS_AM’) || ‘.txt’
commit;
RETURN L_ROWCOUNT;
end TABLE_LOAD;
Note: when you run the function then it will also modify the source flat file with timestamp , so that we can have the track like which file was loaded .
3) Check if the user is having UTL_FILE privileges or not :
SQL> SELECT OWNER,
OBJECT_TYPE
FROM ALL_OBJECTS
WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ‘UTL_FILE’
AND OWNER =<>;
If the user is not having the privileges then grant “UTL_FILE” to user from SYS user:
SQL> GRANT EXECUTE ON UTL_FILE TO <>;
4) In the function I have used two tables like:
import_hist table and badlog table to track the history of the load and another to check the bad log if it occurs while doing the load .
Under the same user create an error log table to log the error out records while doing the import:
SQL> CREATE TABLE badlog
errm VARCHAR2(4000),
data VARCHAR2(4000) ,
error_date TIMESTAMP
Under the same user create Load history table to log the details of the file and tables that are imported with a track of records loaded:
SQL> create table IMPORT_HIST
FILENAME varchar2(200),
TABLE_NAME varchar2(200),
NUM_OF_REC number,
IMPORT_DATE DATE
5) Finally run the PLSQL block and check if it is loading properly or not if not then check the badlog:
Execute the PLSQL block to import the data from the USER:
SQL> declare
P_TABLE varchar2(200):=<>;
P_DIR varchar2(200):=<>;
P_FILENAME VARCHAR2(200):=<>;
v_Return NUMBER;
BEGIN
v_Return := TABLE_LOAD(
P_TABLE => P_TABLE,
P_DIR => P_DIR,
P_FILENAME => P_FILENAME,
P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES => P_IGNORE_HEADERLINES,
P_DELIMITER => P_DELIMITER,
P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED => P_OPTIONAL_ENCLOSED
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘v_Return = ‘ || v_Return);
end;
6) Once the PLSQL block is been executed then check for any error log table and also the target table if the records are been successfully imported or not.

To read the column names of an internal table

Hi ,
I want to read the column/field names of an internal table into another internal table.
How can this be done?
Kind Regards,
hgarsht Rungta

Hi ,
you can get the attributes of any internal table into another ..
check the following code ..
DATA : it_mara TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF mara WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA : it_detail TYPE abap_compdescr_tab,
wa_comp TYPE abap_compdescr.
DATA : ref_descr TYPE REF TO cl_abap_structdescr.
ref_descr ?= cl_abap_typedescr=>describe_by_data( it_mara ).
it_detail[] = ref_descr->components .
loop at it_detail into wa_comp.
write:/ wa_comp-name .
endloop.

}which generates the following output...

GetXMLType.doSomething : DOM = oracle.xml.parser.v2.XMLDocument
Process exited with exit code 0.This works by creating a CLOB from the XMLType and then reparsing it to obtain a DOM on the client side... This is what happens under the covers when a Text persisted XMLType is processed using the Thin Driver.

The error message is very clear(inserting to readonly column). Are you inserting data to Identity or calculated column

Read a Column from an Excel file

Guys,
Is there a way I can read a specific column from an excel file, use that data to query and select data from a table and then insert the output into another column of that same excel file.
Please advise! Thanks

> Is there a way I can read a specific column from an excel file, use that data to query and select data from a

Not easily. An Excel file is typically in a proprietary binary file format. Perhaps saved using the new MS Office XML format.. which would be possible to process via Oracle's XDB.
But assuming it is in a binary format, you need "something else" to read and parse that file for you - like ODBC or DDE or COM/DCOM, etc.
Oracle supports Heterogeneous Database Services. On a Windows Server, you can create a database link in Oracle that uses an ODBC driver to connect to an ODBC data source. There are ODBC drivers for Excel. However, this requires the data in the worksheet to be properly marked as a data table. Or did last time I looked at it about 2 years ago.
You can also call external "interfaces" from PL/SQL using EXTPROC - such interfaces can be DLLs. Which means you do have access to the Win32 API and application APIs from PL/SQL. This can be used to access the content of an Excel file - DDE for example can quite easily do this (you use it to peek the contents of an Excel grid location), but requires Excel to be running and that spreadsheet to be loaded. DDE can also be used to poke contents (write something back to a cell in a spreadsheet).
But using Oracle code to use an Excel file as a kind of database file... that IMO does not make a lot of sense. At all.

Cannot resize the message 'read/unread' column in leopard mail.

I cannot seem to resize the message 'read/unread' column in leopard mail. All other columns (from, subject, date received, size etc) can be resized as normal, however the read/unread "blue dots" are taking up an inordinate amount of space and will not for the life of me resize!
it is driving me crazy...is this a leopard bug or am I just doing something wrong? thank you very much.

DTS is Reading Created_Date column "2007-08-20 10:46:00.710000000" as DBTYPE_STR and causing datatype mismatch with destination (DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP)
