Extract data from Oracle 8i in XML format

I am new to this technology of data extract in XML. Can anyone recommend any tutorials/reading material to get myself upto speed on this.
Thanks

Rakesh,
There are several samples at
http://technet.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/xml/content.html
There is a specific question

Extract data from Oracle in excel file

Hi,
I have a requirement where in I need to extract data from Oracle in excel file and the excel worksheet name should be "Data".
for eg. excel file name "AR Data_DDMMYY" and excel worksheet name "Data"
I have used the UTL_FILE API to extract the tab delimited data which can be opened in excel but it is not exactly an excel file as the worksheet name is same as the file name.
I tried using utl_file.fcopy and frename.
Is there any way to do this using PLSQL?
select * from v$version;
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.5.0 - 64bi
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production
"CORE 10.2.0.5.0 Production"
TNS for HPUX: Version 10.2.0.5.0 - Production

select * from scott.emp;
v varchar2(100);
f utl_file.file_type;
file_name varchar2(100) := 'AR Data.xls';
dir varchar2(50) := 'CESDIR191710';

f := utl_file.fopen(dir, file_name, 'W');
v := 'EMPNO'||chr(9)||'ENAME'||chr(9)||'JOB'||chr(9)||'SAL'||chr(9)||'HIREDATE'||chr(9)||'DEPTNO';
utl_file.put_line(f, v);
for i in c
loop
v := i.empno||chr(9)||i.ename||chr(9)||i.job||chr(9)||i.sal||chr(9)||i.hiredate||chr(9)||i.deptno;
utl_file.put_line(f, v);
end loop;
utl_file.fclose(f);
--utl_file.frename(dir, file_name, dir, replace(file_name, '.xls', '_')||to_char(sysdate, 'MMDDYY')||'.xls', false);
utl_file.fcopy(dir, file_name, dir, replace(file_name, '.xls', '_')||to_char(sysdate, 'MMDDYY')||'.xls');

Hi,
I was able to generate the excel 2007 file with the data using the package from below link;
http://technology.amis.nl/2011/02/19/create-an-excel-file-with-plsql/
but the requirement is to generate excel 2003 file.
I tried changing the .xlsx to .xls and it gives a note while opening the file "The file you are trying to open, abc.xls, is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now?"Then you have three options:
1) stop using anton's package and find another one that supports the old and deprecated version of Excel 2003
2) write your own package to produce an Excel file.
3) Upgrade your version of Excel to a recent version
I tried the programs from other links on the forum but I am still getting this message. The client does not want this message to be displayed as the excel file works as an input to another system.
Can anyone help me with the issue?
Also, is it true that the programatically generated excel file is actually an xml file which is renamed to .xls and hence it shows the message while opening such files?Yes, Excel supports several different formats for it's files. By default, if you save an XLS files from Excel, it writes it out in a Microsoft proprietary binary format, which you would be hard pushed to replicate easily from PL/SQL. Excel also has the ability to save it's files as XML format, which is more readable and easier to produce programatically, whilst still allowing you to have multiple sheets, formulas and formatting included in it. That's the format that most people who need formatting and multiple sheets opt for when programatically generating their data as excel workbooks. (There's also an SLYK format that people used to use before that, but it's not as flexible)
If you want to write your own, the easiest thing to do is to start with a blank workbook in Excel, and put in your basic requirements e.g. a couple of named sheets, and some data in different formats (number, date, text etc.) and different formatting options etc. Save that file in XML format from Excel and then open up the file using notepad/wordpad to look at the structure. There'll be a whole load of redundant rubbish Microsoft put in there, but you should be able to figure out the basic structure of XML required to give you what you want.

Extracting data from Oracle GL and importing to FDM using ERPI adapter

Hi,
I am also trying to use ERPI adapter to directly extract data from Oracle GL. I am not finding sufficient information on this. It would be great if anyone can help me in this.
I have one more doubt: Can we call the stored procedures in the FDM custom scripts, If so can I get the syntax of the script...I really don't have idea on this FDM part. I was working till now with the Flatfile input, But my client wants to make this change in the existing system. Accessing/Extracting data from Oracle GL. Experts who knows it can pls guide me.
I am using FDM 11.1.2 and ERPI associated with 11.1.2.
Thanks in Advance.
[email protected]

Hi,
Is it possible to execute the stored procedures in FDM. Currently we are extracting data from oracle GL using SQl procedures (constaller tool is user to create the inteface) and storing the required data in the intermediate table in oracle GL, From which we are extracting data into a flat file and then loading it to FDM.
So my question: is it possible to invoke the stored procedure from FDM scripts, If so can you pls let me know how to do that...
Thanks In Advance,

How to Extract Data from Oracle DB ?

hi,
I am trying to Extract Data from Oracle DB using DBconnect. and looks like its not working. Not able to connect to Database.
thanks

Hi,
Can you please follw the below steps:
If you need to load data from an Oracleu2122 database use DB Connect instead of an ETL Tool
Although limited to full updates, it allows true u201Chands-offu201D automation of data extraction
Is not limited to Oracleu2122 databases, it supports ALL database systems supported by SAP BW
DB Connect can read the remote data dictionary, replicate table and views, and transfer metadata into the SAP BW Meta Data Repository.
1.Begin with your data model
2.Identify which tables provide:
Master Data
Transactional Data
3.Once the model is complete:
Obtain a UID and Password from the DBA
Ensure that table synonyms are not used u2013 they donu2019t work at this point in time (SAP Note # 518241)
Your UID has to have select permissions on the required database objects.
4.In the admin workbench open the modeling tab and select Source Systems
5.In the right pane, right-click on Source Systems and select Createu2026
6. you have to define the type of source system. Select u201CDatabase Systemu201D
7.Enter a description for the source system
8.Once you accept the definition of the source system, you have to provide the following information, save and back out:
DBMS: ORA (Oracle)
User Name: Your UID
DB password: Your pwd
Conn. Info: sql*net string
Select u201CPermanent connectionu201D if this is the case
9.If everything went well, you should see the new source system. When you do a right-click and ask for the DataSource overview, the first time you execute it you will be prompted to generate the application hierarchy. Answer yes to the prompt and then you will be able to see the DataSource tree.
10.In order to test connectivity, right-click on the source system and select u201CSelect Database Tablesu201D
11.Click on the execute button.
12.Next shows up displaying any tables or views that you have access through your UID
13.Select a table or view and click on u201CEdit DataSourceu201D.
14.To test data retrieval, click on u201CDisplay table contentsu201D
15.Designate the application component, determine the type of DataSource (Text, Master data, or Transaction data) then generate the DataSource.
16.For each applicable table/view generate the repeat steps 13 to 15.
17.From there, assign the DataSource to each target (InfoObject, InfoProvider) as usual.
Moving from Dev to QA to Prod:
18.Before transporting all you configuration work, you will have to manually set up the source system (Steps 4 to 8) in your QA or Prod
19.Depending on your authorization settings in Production, you may need to implement a system restore. Work with BASIS if you need to, donu2019t do it on your own!
20.Then transport your InfoObjects, InfoProviders, Update Rules, Transfer Rules, InfoPackages, etc.
21.If you developed the process chains, transport them separately.
22.Try to maximize throughput by using parallel processing of master data
23.Ensure the right sequence for transactional data loads is followe.
24.Combine the master data loads and the transactional data loads in a master process chain.
It can be help full.

How to Extract the data from the database to XML Format

Hi All,
RepositoryItem userItem = getProfileRepository().getItem("user747", "user");
String userAsXML = GetService.getItemAsXML(userItem,"profileMapping.xml");
While searching, I got the above snippet. But i don't have any idea about to execute it. Can any one help me out.

if you want to export all the repository data into an xml, you can use export
C:\ATG\ATG 9.1\home
bin\startSQLRepository -m ModuleName -export all outputfilename -repository pathtorepository
C:\ATG\ATG9.1\home
bin\startSQLRepository -m MotorPriseJSP -export all users.xml -repository /atg/userprofiling/ProfileAdapterRepository
this will export all profile data from MotorPriseJSP to users.xml. Make sure you point correct datasource while executing this comamnd.
Hope this helps !!!

Extracting date from oracle/other databases exactly to java

Hello Friends,
Iam creating a simple program which extracts data from any database and stores it in an XML file and also it can extract data from an XML file and updates the database.
My program is just getting the tablename as an input and from that it builds the query (select * from tablename). Through ResultSet, Iam extracting date fields with getDate() method of ResultSet, which is yeilding converted dates [In oracle if date is 23-DEC-1980, Im getting it as 1980-12-23 in java]. Even getString() method of ResultSet doesn't work.
I want my program to work with any database engine, which may have their own date formats. Kindly can anyone suggest me a way to extract date from any database exactly as it is to java.
NOTE:: I can't use to_char(datefield) type commands in SQLQUERY as the only input to my program is tablename and my query is, select * from tablename.
Regards,
Ch.Praveen.

HI Friends,
Thanks for your fast replies. My program is extracting data from a database and generating an XML file for it, which is as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<table tableName="EMP">
<row>
<column columnName="EMPNO" columnType="NUMBER">7369</column>
<column columnName="ENAME" columnType="VARCHAR2">'SMITH'</column>
<column columnName="JOB" columnType="VARCHAR2">'CLERK'</column>
<column columnName="MGR" columnType="NUMBER">7902</column>
<column columnName="HIREDATE" columnType="DATE">'1980-12-17'</column>
<column columnName="SAL" columnType="NUMBER">800</column>
<column columnName="COMM" columnType="NUMBER" />
<column columnName="DEPTNO" columnType="NUMBER">20</column>
</row>
<row>
<column columnName="EMPNO" columnType="NUMBER">7499</column>
<column columnName="ENAME" columnType="VARCHAR2">'ALLEN'</column>
<column columnName="JOB" columnType="VARCHAR2">'SALESMAN'</column>
<column columnName="MGR" columnType="NUMBER">7698</column>
<column columnName="HIREDATE" columnType="DATE">'1981-02-20'</column>
<column columnName="SAL" columnType="NUMBER">1600</column>
<column columnName="COMM" columnType="NUMBER">300</column>
<column columnName="DEPTNO" columnType="NUMBER">30</column>
</row>
</table>
Here you can observe that HIREDATE column is having date in different format than in oracle. We are getting an error while we are extracting data from an XML file and updating the database, as dateformats differ. Can anyone provide a solution, which extracts date from database to java exactly as per the dateformat in database.

I have a problem to extract data from oracle dump file (.dmp) using oracle database or any other tools.

There is IMP utility which provides me data as graphical way. But i need extract data in such a way so that i could able to use in my application.
thanks,
mohan

Hi,
EdStevens
Actually I was using SQL Developer. Sorry for the wrong define question. Now the real problem is:
I want to read or extract data in a txt file from Oracle Dump (.dmp) file without using Oracle sqlPlus or Oracle Database.
No need to say that i am able to extract dump data using sqlPlus. But for that, there is a little burden to install oracle database
or sql Developer.
I also listen about Oracle Loader a little bit. Is it a tool for providing extraction of data from Oracle dump file.
Thanks for your previous reply,
And now waiting for your suggestion.
thanks,
mohan

How to extract data from Oracle Table to an Oracle XMLtype field

All,
I'm very new with ODI and I'm looking for a way to implement the following scenario:
I have the Oracle table A, already mapped to Data Model A. This table has the following fields:
field X (PK)
field Y
field Z
field W
I have a table B, already mapped to Data Model B. This table has the following fields:
field X (PK)
field V (XMLType)
I want to extract the data from Table A to a XML file with the following structure:
<X> yada yada yada </X>
<Y> yada yada yada </Y>
<Z> yada yada yada </Z>
<W> yada yada yada </W>
and then insert this file into the field V of Table B. How can I do that?
TIA,
Rodrigo

Extracting data from Oracle to a flat file

I'm looking for options to extract data a table or view at a time to a text file. Short of writing the SQL to do it, are there any other ideas? I'm dealing with large volumes of data, and would like a bulk copy routine.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB'sFlat file is adequate only from VARCHAR2, NUMBER, & DATA datatypes.
Other datatypes present a challenge within text file.
A more robust solution is to use export/import to move data between Oracle DBs.
