Export query result to csv using Export Wizard

Been a decade since I last used Oracle and related tools.
I had to use Oracle server again, I have a query over multiple tables, I am to run a scheduled script that will spit out the query result as a csv file.
I started with SQL Developer Export wizard, in step "Specify Data", I am at a loss, where to specify the query itself? I see a Name,Schema,Type input, a text area below, Up,UpAll,Down,DownAll buttons etc etc. Where do I specify my query here? Can someone please help?
Is this the best way to go about to schedule a data export (query to csv) daily?

To export a user query rather than a whole table, run it in a worksheet and export using the context menu on the result grid. However none can be scheduled.
Instead you can look at the SPOOL command and schedule it through SQL*Plus. Any questions can go to the iSQL*Plus and/or SQL And PL/SQL forum.
Have fun,
K.

Problem when exporting Query from Web template to Excel Sheet.

Hello,
Im encoutering a problem when im trying to export query output from web template to excel sheet.
A popup windown appears when excel sheet opens which reads.."problem cameup in the following areas during load : Cell Value".The report layout appears to be fine but the totals shows unwanted values starting with * followed by number.
Any valuable inputs, what could be the problem. where can i rectify the same.
Regards
Ellora

Hello A K,
Thanks for ur time and response but the option u mentioned did not serve my purpose.
The problem seems to be only with pirticular cells.As mentioned earlier the layout appears properly..all the values are seen..but the end result..totals are disturbed.
eg: If the report shows in template the total value :20,668,554...when exported the values is shown as **668553.88000000600000.
So what could be the problem ? any template setting ? global setting to look at ?

Export query results into .csv file?

Hello I have a T-SQL script that gets row counts for a specified date range and then needs to loop (by incrementing +1 day to get the next day's counts) for a large date range. I'm aiming to output & append each query results day counts
into a .csv file via a SQL Agent job since this will take quite a while to complete.
Would using the following as an example template...
INSERT INTO OPENROWSET('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0','Text;Database=D:\;HDR=YES;FMT=Delimited','SELECT * FROM [FileName.csv]')
SELECT Field1, Field2, Field3
FROM DatabaseName
...be the method or something else?
If this is good to use I've tried running this but get the following error:
Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 76
Cannot process the object "SELECT * FROM [FileName.csv]". The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)" indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions
on that object.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Techresearch7777777,
The error in your post says that the file FileName.csv has to be created with the column names in the first row. Like:
Field1,Field2,Field3
Either you can create a schema.ini file under the same folder:
[FileName.csv]
Format=CSVDelimited
ColNameHeader=False
Col1=Field1 [DataType]
Col2=Field2 [DataType]
Col3=Field3 [DataType]
For the [DataType],you can reference
Schema.ini File (Text File Driver)
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

How to Export BW Query Report to .csv file

I try to export BW QueryReport to .csv file using ReportAgent and URL command in WEB Template:
<SAP_BW_URL DATA_PROVIDER='VIEW1' CMD='EXPORT' FORMAT='CSV'>
but can't find the result file.
Is someone have experience in exporting BW Reports to file in automatic way?

Another way to do it would be to use transaction RSCRM_BAPI.
Not ideal for large volumes but allows you to extract from a query.

Exporting BI Publisher 11g ouput to Excel 2007 with over 65,000 records

Hi All,
I have seen information that BI Publisher 11.1.1.5 allows sending BI Publisher reports directly into native Excel 2007. Will this automatically allow reports with over 65,000 records to be saved in a single Excel 2007 sheet? If so, is it possible to do this in BI Publisher 11.1.1.3 which I am currently using or must I upgrade to 11.1.1.5 to get this functionality?
Will BI Publisher 11.1.1.5 also work with Excel 2010 to be able to load reports with over 65,000 records into a single Excel 2010 sheet?
Thanks for any information that will help me find a solution to this issue.
Barry

well, i did some research, and indeed, to be able to output as .xlsx you would need an update to 11.1.1.4, as it is the first one which supports Excell 2007/10.

Exporting query results into a csv file using arabic and hebrew chars

Hi,
iv'e encountered a problem, using plsql to export a query into a csv file.. the arabic turns into question mark. Do you have any idea why?

Usually this indicates a mismatch between client and database character set.
How do you export this query?
What is your database version?
What is your client OS?

HOW TO Export Entire Page Report, Not Just Regions, To CSV or Excel?

I need to export a main report (Page 2014) that consists of 5 different regions (Name, Feature, States, Admin Areas, and Maps), as one CSV file.
I know that I can set each of the 5 different region's report attributes to export by enabling the CSV output to Yes.
But , since my main report (Page 2014) has these many regions, I end up with 5 different CSV files.
There is no attribute to set for the main report (Page 2014) to enable it to export as CSV output.
How can I get an all-encoompassing CSV file of the main report (Page 2014)?
Thank you in advance,
Maggie

Hello Maggie,
>> How can I get an all-encoompassing CSV file of the main report (Page 2014)?
This might be possible using the advanced print server configuration, with BI Publisher, using the same technique that is being used to print master-details reports (which is a type of a multi-region report) - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/configure_printing.html . The standard print server configuration only supports reports with a single region. If you have BIP in your organization, that’s great. Otherwise, CSV files don’t warrant it.
The only other option, I can see, is to create the CSV file manually, using the technique described in the following Blog entry, by Scott Spendolini - http://spendolini.blogspot.com/2006/04/custom-export-to-csv.html .

HELP - Export Files from Data Set into Excel (CSV File)

Hello,
I was hoping someone could help me with adobe forms since this is the first time we have used this function at my work. We created an enrollment form, posted it online and 700 employees completed the form (with the submit button it came back to my email). I received all the forms and added them to the dataset in adobe. Now that my forms are complete, I have tried several options to export them into a csv file and it is not working properly. When I use the export button it only brings over 125 of the 700. If I export by clicking on forms>manage form data>merge files into a spreadsheet it brings them all over but is moving my information on some of the rows. For example, some names will be in the name column, some are under social security, etc. I need the exact answer under the appropriate column becuase I can't tell which plan employees chose. I would really appreciate if someone could help. I have searched and searched for the reason this is doing this but I can't seem to locate an answer. Is there another step that I'm missing? Does anyone know why my rows are shifting? We tried to test this before we used it and it seemed to work fine but we only used 5 files. Please Please Please Help Me! This enrollment file is due by tomorrow!
Thank You,
Mary

How to upload the web query result to CSV/Text file

Hi,
Kindly help me on the following.
1)       I have info-provider (IP), which has info-objects "company code" and "supplier".
2)       I built a query by putting company-code with a variable in free-charateristics and supplier-code in row.
3)       When I run this query, it will ask company-code as input and the result will be filtered using company-code.
4)       For this query, I created a web-template and assigned data-provider to display the data on the web.
5)       The user wants to enter input company-code='1000' and write the data in a CSV file in a specific directory. i.e, by clicking the execute button (after entering company code) , the result should go to the CSV or text file. i.e. the application should automatically generate the file with query results.
Note: The user should not use context menu to EXPORT TO CSV OR EXCEL file.
Please let me know, if there is any tutorial. Thanks a lot advance help.
Regards
Kandasamy

1. SELECT INTO
Below method will create table when data is inserted from one table to another table. Its useful when you need exactly same datatype as source table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Insert data using SELECT INTO
SELECT AddressLine1, City
INTO BothellAddresses
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
GO
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO
2. INSERT INTO SELECT
Below method will need table to be created prior to inserting data. Its really useful when table is already created and you want insert data from
another table.
Use AdventureWorks2008R2;
Go
---Create Table
CREATE TABLE BothellAddresses (AddressLine1 NVARCHAR(60), City NVARCHAR(30))
---Insert into above table using SELECT
INSERT INTO BothellAddresses(AddressLine1, City)
SELECT AddressLine1, City
FROM Person.Address
where City = 'Bothell';
---VERIFY DATA
Select AddressLine1, City
FROM BothellAddresses
---DROP TABLE
DROP TABLE BothellAddresses
GO
