Edit .CSV file in StarBase

Can I edit a .CSV file with StarBase? I've been able to open the file, but can't edit. I created a data entry form, but it opens in read only mode.
I'm not all that familiar with databases, so please excuse my ignorance.
Dave

Hi,
Here's a short walkthrough:
grab the csv (Import-Csv).
cycle through each line in the imported csv
if the group column doesn't exist already, add a Member named Group
This command executes, if the userID begins with sim:
If ($_.ID -like "sim*")
# Do something
Else
# Do something else
Set $_.Group to admin if the condition is met
finally, export the result to csv again (Export-Csv)
Cheers and good luck with making this work,
Fred

Edit CSV files present in document library using Microsoft Excel

Hi all
I have a document library with CSV files uploaded. I have used the below mapping in DOCICON.xml present in \14\TEMPLATE\XML folder.
<Mapping Key="csv" Value="csv16.gif" EditText="Microsoft Excel" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
And I modified mime type with "application/vnd.ms-excel" for csv in IIS7. Now, when i click on the file popup is getting displayed with 2 Radio Buttons.
1) Read Only
2)Edit
When i select "Read Only", the file is opening in Microsoft Excel in readonly mode But when i select "Edit", the file is opening in Note pad and its editable.
Now, My requirement is to edit the csv file in Microsoft Excel not in NotPad.
Can Any one help me to acheive this!! Thanks in advance.

Try below:
http://nickgrattan.wordpress.com/2011/01/05/sharepoint-opening-csv-files-with-microsoft-excel/
Run the “Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager” application from the Start/Administrative tools menu.
Select the server in the left-hand pane.
Select “MIME Types” in the list of options in the middle pane.
Then locate the .CSV entry (it should already exist) and change the MIME type to: application/vnd.ms-excel, and click
OK.

Loading 361000 records at a time from csv file

Hi,
One of my collegue loaded 361000 records from one file file , how is this possible as excel accepts 65536 records in one file
and even in the infopackage the following are selected what does this mean
Data Separator   ;
Escape Sign      "
Separator for Thousands   .
Character Used for Decimal Point   ,
Pls let me know

hi Maya,
it just possible, other than ms-excel, we have editor like Textpad that support more 65k rows (and windows Notepad), the file may be generated by program or edited outside in excel, or newer version of excel is used, ms-excel 2007 support more 1 million rows.
e.g we have csv file
customer;product;quantity;revenue
a;x;"1.250,25";200
b;y;"5.5";300
data separator ;
- char/delimeter used to separate field, e.g
escape sign, e.g
- "1.250,25";200 then quantity = 1.250,25
separator for thousands = .
- 1.250,25 means one thousand two hundred ...
char used for decimal point
- - 1.250<b>,</b>25
check

Error while refreshing a report using local csv file

Hi,
I'm using BI 4.1 SP02.
While using Rich client, I've created a report with some merged queries, while one of the queries is a local CSV file - saved on AD in some server, and not on the repository inside BO.
While trying to refresh the report with the Rich client, it all went great.
Now, while using BI Launchpad java based app, I can't refresh the report - I get the following error:
"An Internal error occurred while calling 'processDPCommandsEx' API. (Error: ERR_WIS_30270) (WIS 30270)"
Should I be able to refresh a report without the Rich if it contains a local file (which is possible to EDIT only with rich) ?
If so, then did someone ran into this error?
Thank you,
Or.

First of all, thanks for both of the replies.
Second,
my problem is unlikely have to do something with permissions from one reasons -
when the report is using XLS\XLSX on same folder(with same name prefix) - the report is running without any problem.
Only problem is while refreshing without Rich while the source is network CSV file.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Creation of CSV file on client machine with data from forms

Hi,
My requirement is to generate a CSV file(or .XLS) on the client machine ie local drive with the details shown in a form.
Oracle version -
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
CORE 11.1.0.7.0 Production
TNS for Solaris: Version 11.1.0.7.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 11.1.0.7.0 - Production.
I have searched the web for last couple of days and got to know that TEXT_IO is to be used to generate files on client machine. However, when I tried TEXT_IO, it was not able to generate the file on client rather it was able to generate on database server. After further browsing on this, there was a link which said that we need to use CLIENT_TEXT_IO to generate file on client side. For this, i was required to subclass the webutil.pll which i did and corrected the code to use CLIENT_TEXT_IO. The form was unable to compile and was not able to find "webutil_core" package.
I am very confused with the disparity in the information available on the web as in what to use to generate a file on client side. If anyone has use it in the past, can he/she please detail what to use to get things sorted.
Thanks,
R

So, what is your FORMS version. This is more important than your database version.
My requirement is to generate a CSV file(or .XLS) on the client machine ie local drive with the details shown in a form. Depending on your Forms version, you would use TEXT_IO (if Forms 6i running in Client/Server mode) or WebUtil (if Forms 9i or higher).
I'm going to guess that you are at least using Oracle Forms 9i since you stated that your attempt at using TEXT_IO produced a file on the DB server.
There is more to using WebUtil than just attaching the WEBUTIL.PLL. If you had performed a simple search of the Forms Help System would have found numerous WebUtil topics to include: Introduction to WebUtil, Configuring WebUtil, Using WebUtil in Your Applications and the WebUtil User's Guide. If you have Oracle Forms release 10g or higher, WebUtil is included when you installed Forms, however, you do need to configure your installation to use WebUtil and you must download the Java COM Bridge (jacob.jar) from Source Forge. Take a look at the Configuring WebUtil Forms Help topic to find out which version of the Java COM Bridge you will need to download.
After you have successfully configured WebUtil, take a look at the Using WebUtil in Your Applications topic to find out how to implement WebUtil in a form.
Searching the Internet for answers is great, but don't forget the look at the Forms Help System because the majority of your questions can be answered there. :)
Lastly, configuration of WebUtil is primarily done on your Application Server (AS). However, if you plan to perform preliminary runtime testing by running your Form from the Forms Builder, then you will configure your local runtime to support WebUtil as well as configure your AS. The steps are exactly the same. A common mis-step is to skip a step during the configuration because you don't think the step applies. Take a look at the Forms Help Runtime Setup Checklist topic for a list of step you need to complete in order to enable WebUtil.
Hope this helps,

How can I make an easy *.CSV file to load into database table

Hi All,
I have a huge excel sheet having columns item#, description and qty. The description column sometimes maybe one word name, two word name separated with space or may be , spearated name. I want to write and PL/SQl code which will read this file and load it into database table. Now the *.CSV file is either comma delimited or tab text delmited which both do not solve my issue. Is there any better solution with anyone which can prevent the manual editing to the *.CSV file and I can easily load it to table.
Your help is appreciated,
Thanks
Zahir

SQL*Loader is probably the fastest method, but since you specifically asked for a PL/SQL method:

Hi BI consultant:
   Could you please provide more details?
For example:
1.Is your P application server a UNIX flavor? (Solaris, AIX, UX, Linux)
   If yes..
         2. Are you able to see the contents of the file correctly with a "cat" or "vi" command? (at operating system level).
               If no...
                     3. Did you upload the csv flat file to the server via FTP?
                            If yes...
                                 4. Did you use the "binary" or the "ascii" parameter on the FTP command used to upload the file?
Probably you need to upload the CSV file again to your application server and make sure you can se the file contents ("cat" or "vi" command) before trying to execute the InfoPackage.
Regards,
Francisco Milán.

Memory problem with loading a csv file and displaying 2 xy graphs

Hi there, i'm having some memory issues with this little program.
What i'm trying to do is reading a .csv file of 215 mb (6 million lines more or less), extracting the x-y values as 1d array and displaying them in 2 xy graphs (vi attacked).
I've noticed that this process eats from 1.6 to 2 gb of ram and the 2 x-y graphs, as soon as they are loaded (2 minutes more or less) are really realy slow to move with the scrollbar.
My question is: Is there a way for use less memory resources and make the graphs move smoother ?
Thanks in advance,
Ierman Gert

Hi lerman,
how many datapoints do you need to handle? How many do you display on the graphs?
Some notes:
- Each graph has its own data buffer. So all data wired to the graph will be buffered again in memory. When wiring a (big) 1d array to the graph a copy will be made in memory. And you mentioned 2 graphs...
- load the array in parts: read a number of lines, parse them to arrays as before (maybe using "spreadsheet string to array"?), finally append the parts to build the big array (may lead to memory problems too).
- avoid datacopies when handling big arrays. You can show buffer creation using menu->tools->advanced->show buffer allocation
- use SGL instead of DBL when possible...

This may not be an option for you but in pinch you may want to consider outputing your data to an MS Spreadsheet, then saving it as a CSV. It's somewhat of a cumbersome process, but it will get you by for now.
You will need to change your content type to application/vnd.ms-excel.
<% response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel"); %>

How can I display a .csv file as a real time waveform using labview

Hi folks.
As stated, Im looking to display a .CSV file (obtained via RS-232, example; 100,101,102,102,102,103...) as a waveform in real-time. What is the best way to approach this? Im thinking LabVIEW. I have version 7.1 but am not really experienced in using it. I'll give anything a go though. Also, I have Visual Studio 2005, so I was thinking VB???

How do i save and access a csv file on my ipad when filling in a smartform. Currently only option goes to photos

Trying to save a csv file on my ipad so I can auto populate into a SmartForm. It will only allow me to access photos when I hit the import button

search the app store for PDF Writer. I've found a lot that will convert documents to PDF, but none yet that will write within the PDF. One thing you want to avoid are cloud based apps. Any of them that talk about editing on the cloud, etc, aren't going to be as standalone as you want.
It's possible, if you can take your template PDF, turn it into a word document that you can edit, you can then convert that to PDF...kinda a workaround way to do what you want. And apps that convert to PDF are much easier to find

How can I load an Excel File to a pipe-delimited .csv File

I would prefer doing this using a standard data flow task component in SSIS. I will choose an Excel source and a flat file destination for this.
