Exporting from Access / Importing to Oracle9i

Hi
I am trying to figure out a way of exporting an Access database to 9i. This is fine if I am just exporting text, I then use Access as the fromt end to Oracle. However I would like to export a database which hold OLE objects (i.e Word docs, and Excel sheets) into 9i and agin connect to it via ODBC with linked tables. Is this possible??? Does anyone know how to, or where I could find info on how to, I would be grateful.
Thanks very much and have a good weekend
John

I think it's unlikely that this is possible. The ODBC protocol doesn't generally support the sending of LONG/ BLOB/ CLOB data, so Access is unlikely to know how to do this. Oracle's ODBC driver does provide support for these datatypes, but it is relatively unique in this regard.

Import/Export from Access MDB to Oracle DB

Dear Friends,
I need to import a huge table from access to Oracle. I tried to export the file from MS Access to Oracle, it is giving error. I tried another way of doing , i first exported the data to SQL server and then using Export/Import utility of SQL Server, it has imported succesfully. I am not sure which is the best way to import data from ACCESS to Oracle.
Kindly suggest,
Regards,
Vinay

Another approach you might try goes something like this:
1. In Access, link the destination Oracle table (for example, via File, Get External Data, Link Tables...).
2. In Access, create an Append Query to select rows from your Access table and insert them in to the linked Oracle table.

Hyperlinks Truncating on Export from Access 2007

I have a report in Access 2007 that includes a memo field in RTF format. Quite often part of the text in this field will include one or more hyperlinks. The hyperlinks work fine in Access.
I export this report to .pdf using the following line of VBA code, attached to a button on a form:
DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputReport, stDocName, acFormatPDF, vrtSelectedItem & "\" & title & ".pdf"
This code works fine, and the report is exported to the selected location properly. And if the hyperlink text all fits on one line in the .pdf file, then the link works correctly there, too.
The problem is when the hyperlink text ends up being wrapped around to a 2nd line or more. The entire link still LOOKS like a link in the .pdf file (it's still blue/underlined), but only the first line is actually a hyperlink.
For example, if the link text were:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/
acrobat/post!input.jspa?containterType=14
...then the only part that would actually be a hyperlink in the .pdf document would be "http://forums.adobe.com/community/" and the 2nd line of the link is lost.
We have thousands of these hyperlinks all throughout our data, and many of them are more than one line long. It is not feasible for us to shorten all of them using bit.ly. Nor is it feasible for us to make our users copy and paste the broken links from the .pdf's into their browsers.
So, does anyone know how to fix this so that the hyperlinks we pass to .pdf from Access remain complete hyperlinks, even if they are more than one line long?

Finally figured out the solution myself, after 2 days. It's surprisingly simple.
If the URL is surrounded by double quotes in the data, then it works as a complete link when exported to .pdf, even if the link wraps to a 2nd line or more. The quotes show up in the .pdf, too, but that's a small price to pay to have working links.

Export from 10g import to 9i

Hi All,
what I need is - I want to export the 10g data and import the same to 9i database.
I know that if we take the export using the 9i binaries ( client or db) we should able to do that, but I don't want to keep the 9i binaries only for this job.
Is there any other way to take the export from 10g and import the same dump in 9i?
Thanks

Yes.. I don't want to do that also..over the network it would be slow.
See I checked this..looks like 7i and 8i there is one script to do the same, is anything like that exist for 9i and 10g as well.
==================
Different versions of the import utility are upwards compatible. This means that one can take an export file created from an old export version, and import it using a later version of the import utility. This is quite an effective way of upgrading a database from one release of Oracle to the next.
Oracle also ships some previous catexpX.sql scripts that can be executed as user SYS enabling older imp/exp versions to work (for backwards compatibility). For example, one can run $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catexp7.sql on an Oracle 8 database to allow the Oracle 7.3 exp/imp utilities to run against an Oracle 8 database.
================
Thanks

EXPORT from Windows IMPORT to UNIX

Hi,
in 10gR2, is it possible to EXPORT from a database on Windows in order to IMPORT to a database on UNIX ? If yes any caution or recommandation ?
Thanks before.

After 3000+ posts, you should be aware about the oracle doc site , http://tahiti.oracle.com and also that you should search over there first for the question.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/exp_imp.htm#sthref2124
The Export and Import utilities provide a simple way for you to transfer data objects between Oracle databases, even if they reside on platforms with different >hardware and software configurations.HTH

After running Export from Access query the query empties itself

Hello,
I'm facing a weird problem in Access 2010. I have several queries that I sometimes export to both Excel and HTML formats, sometimes when I export, the query empties itself. Meaning, the SQL code disappears from the query and I have to rebuild it before I
can use it again.
Does anyone understand how this can happen?
Kind regards,
Rob Demandt

Dear Kev,
Sure, the queries are relatively simple, an example:
"SELECT AC_DEV_01_AUTOPO_NOSOURCE_US50.F1 AS Material, AC_DEV_01_AUTOPO_NOSOURCE_US50.EersteVanF2 AS [Material Description], AC_DEV_01_AUTOPO_NOSOURCE_US50.EersteVanF6 AS Vendor
FROM AC_DEV_01_AUTOPO_NOSOURCE_US50
WHERE (((AC_DEV_01_AUTOPO_NOSOURCE_US50.EersteVanOpProc)="PJ"));"
The export is indeed invoked using a MACRO that uses the ExportWithFormatting syntax to export a few queries in a row to XLSX and HTML.
Kind regards,
Rob Demandt

Exporting from Access to Oracle

Hi all,
nowadays we are dealing with an issue of exporting access tables to oracle 11g.Briefly, the problem is our former developers had defined columnnames with space characters in access tables,as you know they are not valid in oracle db.After spending hours on internet we found out that we can export tables to oracle with the same column names if we put a quotation mark (") just before and after the column name which means a column named [Customer Name] in access is gonna be changed to "Customer Name".It looks okey but still looks like an amateur ,daily solution.Dou you know any other solution for our problem and also is the putting quotation marks(") a supported solution for oracle's side.
Thank You
gokhan

Hi,
You can make use of Oracle sql Developer for exporting Access tables or database to Oracle. ORacle sql developer will capture the Access model and then convert it into the Oracle required format. Then using that model you can perform Import in the ORacle Sql Developer.

Export From PC, Import to iMac

Well yesterday I ordered a brand new iMac Yay! Anyways, I have an External Hard drive that I will be carrying over with files and Photoshop stuff. But when I go to iTunes on my PC, would I select Export? I already but the XML file on the hard drive, but is that enough? Will I be able to just import that file and everything will be there? Tell me what I should do because I am not good with managing files like this. Step by step would be preferable Thanks.

From iTunes on the PC, choose Consolidate Library from the Advanced menu and then copy over the entire iTunes folder, placing it in the item named Music of the Finder's sidebar on the Mac.

Export from linux import to windows

Hi,
I have a need to export perfstat from a linux database and import into a windows database. Is this possible with the differing operating systems?
rgds
Alan

Please confirm:
1) Your requirement is to install the PerfSTat user on the Linux machine, and get StatsPack running? or
2) Your requirement is to transfer Statspack snapshots from Windows to Linux?
If 1), perhaps it would be wiser to simply install a fresh copy of statspack as described here
If 2), that makes no sense to me as the baseline is no longer relevant

Intents wrong when exporting from or importing to Pages for iPad

Anytime I create a document on the iPad and export it for e-mail the indents are messed up when I open them with Pages on the Mac. The same thing happens in reverse direction too. Does anyone have a solution for this or is this a known issue?

It was the major reason I went with an iPad over a Windows based laptop. Portability and word processing. Unfortunately the "cross platform" issue with exported PDF's render the iPad useless as a business tool in that way.
It's a shame really but I don't need a $800 toy, I need business tool.
If this singular issue got any attention and were fixed it would greatly increase the viability of the iPad as that tool but at this stage, it clearly is just a larger iPod touch.
How professional is it to have no cross platform functionality in a word processor. I'v actually found the program itself quite handy and very powerfull for a mobile WP app.
Or I could just pre-qulify all the businesses I do business with and ask if they use an OSX platform or Win based but that would really kill my business.

I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts - what do i do next

I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts.What do I do next?

Hi mp,
If you updated to OS X Mavericks, there may have been an automatic update to Numbers 3. Numbers 3 will be in your Applications folder. Numbers '09 has not been replaced. Look for Numbers '09 (Numbers 2.3) in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. You can run both versions of Numbers at the same time.
I have icons for both versions on my Dock. Drag each to the Dock from Applications folder and Applications > iWork '09 folder. Right click on each and Options > Keep in Dock. Now you have the choice of which to use.
Numbers 2 (3 column chart) on the left. Numbers 3 (4 column chart) on the right.
If a document won't open, try opening from within each version. Or right click on the document and Open With...
You can Export a Numbers 3 document back to Numbers '09 with Menu > Export > Numbers '09...
Post back if you have problems.
Regards,
Ian.

Importing data from Access into InDesign...

Hi
I need to create 200 A6 sized profile cards. Each card must contain a person's name, job role, three key things they are currently working on and a full body photograph.
All the data is currently being collated in Microsoft Access (not currently sure of version). If Access is a problem I can convert to Excel. I am using InDesign CS6.
My question is - is there an easy way to mass import this data onto each profile card?
Many thanks in advance, I appreciate any suggestions :-)
Kim :-)

Another approach is export data from Access to xml-file. Create a template with placeholders in InDesign (in your case 5 text frames and a graphic frame). Then you can import the xml-file and InDesign will automatically create all the profile cards.

Memory Limit for "IMPORT/EXPORT from MEMORY ID" statement

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me whether there is any memory limit exists for "IMPORT/EXPORT from MEMORY ID" statement.
Like may be we can transfer xx MB of data via this......or it is open, we can transfer any amount of data to ABAP memory via this.
Regards
Munish Garg

1. Each user sessions have external sessions and each external sessions have internal sessions.
2. The programs being executed in the internal sessions can access ABAP memory
3.ABAP memory is a storage area for internal program variables like fields, structures, internal tables,,They can be passed between internal sessions of an external session.
4. you can transfer data through ABAp memory using IMPORT and EXPORT statements
5. after IMPORT FROM MEMORY ID <id> , you can use sy-subrc to check the existance of the cluster ID. here sy-subrc is not used to check whether the Import was successful or not.

SQL Exoress 2008 import export Wizard wont import Access 2003 mdb to SQL 2008 DB

Just installed SQL Express with Tools, including SSME and Import Export Wizard.
Attempted to transfer Access 2003 DB tables from an mdb file to a SQL 2008 Express DB.

I had this similar problem - 32-bit SQL Server 2005 trying to import tables from Access 2000 .mdb file, same error:

I know you said you clicked "Advanced..." and Test Connection when you chose your Access database - but that is what resolved the error for me. I chose my .mdb file, username is admin, password is blank, but if I don't click the Advanced button and test the connection before continuing on, the import fails with above error message. Go figure, since the username/blank password is correct.
FWIW, sorry if that doesn't help you though.

Exporting from oracle10g to oracle9i

I did an exp on an Oracle 10g database (10.1.0.3). I ftp'd the file to another machine running Oracle 9i (9.2.0.6). When importing I'm getting this error:
Connected to: Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options
JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
Upon further research I saw a compatibility matrix which stated that to export from Oracle10g to Oracle9i I have to use Oracle9i's 'exp' utility.
Thus I copied this binary file to the machine where I had oracle10g. When running this I'm getting the following error:
ld.so.1: ./exp: fatal: libclntsh.so.9.0: open failed: No such file or directory
Killed
In fact that file exists only in the machine where there is Oracle9i. I copied this file to /opt/app/oracle/10.1.0/lib32/ but I had the same error. Is this documented somewhere?? I'm stuck. help please...

To be able to import into a lower version database, you have to export using the lower version export. Export files are forward compatable, but not backwards. See the following link.
