Dynamically Update External Table Data

I loaded a data table from an external csv file. But the csv file is an output from a program that appends a new line to the csv file every couple days.
I made a Report with the loaded data, but in a couple days when a few new lines of data appear in the csv file, I want my report to update as well.
Is there a way to create a "Refresh Button" in my application that will load the data from the csv when pressed?
I have oracle database 11g express with APEX 4.1.1

Hi,
what you describe could certainly be achieved, but it would have to be designed and built, it is not going to be provided "out of the box". I would probably go with an external table based on your file and a process that you would build would be callable from the button and this would do some sort of a merge of the external table data into your database table. Apart from being callable on demand, the process could also be made to be a scheduled process that loads the data on a regular basis, say once a day or once an hour, depending on your requirements. To use an external table it is assumed that the file will be available on the database server. If not and the file is available on only a client machine, then doing an on demand load process would still be possible, but a little more difficult.

How to dynamically update the Table?

Hi All,
Hope somebody will help me out ot resolve my issue.
In my application, about 10 analog channels data coming in. Out of which two parameter needs to get updated dynamically on the table. (For each Rpm between 500-1000, in steps of 50, have to capture Pressure points & show it on the table.)
I seen there is one method called table method available which helps to set the value of a particular cell specified by corresponding row and column index.
I tried this. In row 0, col 0 & col 1 it put what value I specified by using that table method. when it goes to row 1, col 0 & col 1 also got updated but vanishing the above put row 0, col 0 & col 1 values. so at any point of time, I am able to see only the current row values.
Hope there should be some dynamic refreshing method available or else I dont know how to handle this situation. Pls. clarify.
Thanks,
Kousy

Hi,
Thanks.
But I am not able to update dynamically.
I just done slight changes to your update.vi. Just run Update_1.vi and after update
button is pressed, change the row, col index to see the update. please note
it is not able to update if matrix exceeds 3x4. i.e set row index=3
col index=0; new cell value = 10. it is not updating.. it might because of initialization
of 3x4 matrix values at the start.. ot the way I am trying out is bad?
By using Table method itself I got the solution what I want. I have attached that vi too.
just check out and reply if any flaw..
Thanks,
Kousy

I have no experience with external tables but my understanding is that they are described the same was as you would describe a file to be loaded by SQL Loader. When ever I create a sql loader control file to load a date column I use syntax like this:
DATE_M                                             "TO_DATE(:DATE_M,'dd.mm.yyyy')",Not sure if that will work for external tables or not.

External table data edit

Hi Experts...
I am trying to export data from main frame system files(.csv) by using the external tables,
my question is can I edit before loading into the external tables? if yes how/
or else wat is the best process to edit while loading from external tables to main tables?
sample code will be appreciated...

It depends on what you mean by "edit". You can do anything in a sql statment against an external table that you can against a real table. So, if by "edit" you mean things like make a column upper case, do some basic formatting etc., or even ignore some lines/columns in the file, then it should be done is the select statment from the external table.

Hi GURUS,
I need help regarding one of my requirement.
I need to display data from the internal table on the screen and when the user selects a record/multiple records from screen and clicks on approve button i need to update one of the field from N to Y in the corresponding Ztable.

How to Create Dynamic form using table data

Dear All,
I have one Table called PRODUCT_MASTER where product details are stored. Say product A,B,C,D are stored in the table. Another table called SUB_PRODUCT_MASTER, which contains sub product details.Say A1,A1,B1,B2, B3,C1, C2, C3, D1,D2,D3.
Now, I want to create a dynamic form based on product,sub product. for a whole month. For better under standing here is the format.
PRODUCT A B C D
SUB_PROD A1 A2 B1 B2 B3 C1 C2 C3 D1 D2 D3
Days
1 x x x x x x x x
2
3
4
5
6
7
Now whenever I add one row in the PRODUCT)MASTER table and SUB_PRODUCT_MASTER table, Form should add one column in the form automatically. e.g. If I add Product E with two Sub product E1 and E2 then form should add ptoduct E column in the form with sub products E1 and E2 as per above format. Here days are fixed to 31. This forms should accept product wise daily despatch entry. For
storing despatch entry another table is created.
Please help to create this type od forms.

Dynamic update to Excel data

Hi Friends,
I have couple of requirements on xcelsius documents. The details are as under:
1. Swf file will have column charts and sliders or Grid. When the value is changed for any one series in the chart by sliders, we need the value to be updated into the underlying Excel. Is it possible.
2. The other issue is In the Column chart Original values are sorted by value from left to right - left being the least value. When the simulation is done using sliders and few of the most expensive values will be adjusted the chart need to be re-sorted either auto or manual sort button. Is it possible.
I am new to xcelsius product.
Any guidance is helpful.
Regards
Aravind

1. This is precisely how Xcelsius works. As a Slider that is bound to a cell is moved, the value in the cell changes. The chart then displays whatever value is in the cell and will update as the value changes.
2. Xcelsius does not provide a "sort" feature. This functionality can be accomplished by building the logic into your spreadsheet. For example, you have data in A1, A2 and A3 that is in sequential order (10, 15, 20). You have a slider that is bound to A2. When the slider is dragged, A2 changes to 30. The values are now out of sequential order (10, 30, 20). To resolve this, you could create a second row that uses formulas in B1, B2, B3 to re-order the values. The simplest formula would be using the SMALL function (array,k). This way, no matter what values are in A1, A2, A3 they will appear in the proper numerical order in B1, B2, B3. You would then bind the chart to display the data in B1, B2 and B3.

Accessing The External Table using UIAPI and DIAPI

Hi Every One,
can any one tell me about , can we access the external table data that is created by using sql query externally using UIApi and DIAPI
Regards
Srinivas

Hi,
technically is it possible, but all inserts and updates have to be through query.
Note, that when you create tables from sdk, you can set more informations about fields than in sql query manager (for example subtype) - so you may have problem in binding data to matrix for example. So if you have table externally, you may work with, but this isn`t allowed by SAP (and I think that this case may be dangerous if you acces it in sdk). If you need to acces it on sql server side (own numbering, some stored procedure, ..) it will works safer, but it is not allowed as well.

Why is it tricky? You did not say.
Making a guess as to the problem why not use TO_NUMBER to cast the string?

Here's how to do ALV (OO) with dynamic fcat, int table and editable data

Hi everybody
Here's a more useful approach to ALV grid with OO using dynamic table, data NOT from DDIC, dynamic FCAT and how to get changed lines from the grid when ENTER key is pressed.
It's really not too dificult but I think this is more useful than the ever present SFLIGHT methods from the demos.
This also defines a subclass of cl_gui_alv_grid so you can access the protected attributes / methods of that class.
You don't need to add the class via SE24 -- done fron this ABAP.
When you run it click Edit for the first time.
After editing data press ENTER and the break point should bring you into the relevant method.
Code developed on NW2004S trial version but also works on rel 6.40 on a "Real" system.
The code should work without any changes on any system >=6.40.
All you need to do is to create a blank screen 100 via SE51 with a custom container on it called CCONTAINER1.
The rest of the code can just be uploaded into your system using the SE38 upload facility.
When running the program click on the EDIT button to enable the edit functionality of the grid.
Change your data and when you press ENTER you should get the break-point where you can see the original table and changed rows.
This program is actually quite general as it covers Dynamic tables, building a dynamic fcat where your table fields are NOT in the DDIC, intercepting the ENTER key via using an event, and accessing the protected attributes of the cl_gui_alv_grid by defining a subclass of this class in the abap.
I've seen various questions relating to all these functions but none in my view ever answers the questions in a simple manner. I hope this simple program will answer all these and show how using OO ALV is actually quite easy and people shouldn't be scared of using OO.
Have fun and award points if useful.
Cheers
Jimbo.

Hi there
IE7 doesn't give me the add new page option and I get 404 error when trying to access the "How to contribute" section.
I'll load up Firefox later (this browser usually works when IE7 doesn't always work properly).
I'll copy the stuff to the wiki when I've got the browser sorted out.
Cheers

Error while fetching data from OWB Client using External Table.

Dear All,
I am using Oracle Warehouse Builder 11g & Oracle 10gR2 as repository database on Windows 2000 Server.
I facing some issue in fetching data from a Flat File using external table from OWB Client.
I have perform all the steps without any error but when I try to view the data, I got the following error.

===========================
In the error it is showing that file expense_categories.csv in SOURCE_LOCATION not found but I am 100% sure that file is very much there.
Is anybody face the same issue?
Do we need to configure something before loading data from a flat file from OWB Client?
Any help would higly appreciable.
Regards,
Manmohan Sharma

Hi Detlef / Gowtham,
Now I am able to fetch data from flat files from OWB Server as well as OWB Client.
One way I have achieved as suggested by you
1) Creating location on the OWB Client
2) Samples the files at client
3) Created & Configured external table
4) Copy all flat files on OWB Server
5) Updated the location which I created at the client.
Other way
1) Creating location on the OWB Client
2) Samples the files at client
3) Created & Configured external table
4) Copied flat files on the sever in same drive & directory . like if my all flat files are on C:\data at OWB Client then I copied flat file C:\data on the OWB Server. But this is feasible for Non-Windows.
Hence my problem solved.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Manmohan
