Hi,
Below example using External Table Feature.
create a directory on the server where your database is installed and copy your data file(text file) in that directory. In the below example Oracle directory name is "text_file" and the physical directory on the server is "D:\TEXT_FILE\". The file name of data file is "data.txt".
create directory text_file as 'D:\TEXT_FILE\';
DROP TABLE load_a;
CREATE TABLE load_a
(a1 varchar2(20),
a2 varchar2(200))
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
(TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY text_file
ACCESS PARAMETERS
(FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LOCATION ('data.txt')
select * from load_a;
now you can use
insert into a select * from load_a;

Help needed badly Insert text data from xml files into tables

Hi all, I have asked to do insertion of text from a xml file into tables upon receiving using pro*c. i've done quite an amount of research on xml parser in c but there wasn't much information for mi to use for implementation...
Guys don't mind helping me to clarify few doubts of mine...
1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?
2. Is there any tutorials or help files for xml parser libs where i can read up?
I need the xml parser to recognise the tags, followed by recognising the text after the tags.
eg. xml format
<studentID> 0012 </studentID>
<student> john </student>
<studentID> 0013 </studentID>
<student> mary </student>
text willl be inserted into tables like this:
studentID | student
0012 | john
0013 | mary
by the way i'm using oracle 8i on HP-UX. Thanks in advance.

I can answer one of of your questions at least
1. Where can i get the oracle xml parser libs? Is it included when i installed oracle 8i?You need the XML XDK. You can use http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/xml/xdkhome.html as your starting point. I believe the 9i version works for 8i.
I have no pro*c experience so I can't offer any other suggestions regarding how to do this in pro*c.

Load an XML file into table(s)

Hi ,
I have to load data from an xml file into an Oracle DB but I never used this king of process before. The purpose is to use as much as possible Oracle standard features ( stored procedures , functions , API's ).
Can someone explain me in simple explanations how to do it ? Thanks in advance for your help.
The XML must not be stored in the database , only the final tables
Values can be inserted , updated , or deleted from the final tables
Here are the versions of the tools I am using :
Oracle RDBMS : 10.2.0.4.0
Oracle Applications : 11.5.10.2
Toad : 9.5.0.31
SQL Plus : 8.0.6.0.0
The header of the xsd :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- 
- <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="http://www.w3schools.com" targetNamespace="http://www.w3schools.com" elementFormDefault="qualified">
An extract of the xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
- <GraydonBeDialogue>
<TransactionCode>RTB</TransactionCode>
- <Table ClassTable="Country">
- <TableEntry>
<TableLanguage>N</TableLanguage>

<TableLanguage>N</TableLanguage>
<TableCode>S</TableCode>
<TableValue>Doorgehaald bij de arbeidsrechtbank</TableValue>
</TableEntry>
</Table>
</GraydonBeDialogue>
The result I would have :
Two tables ( Country and Summons ) , each containing 3 columns ( TableLanguage , TableCode , TableValue ) :
Table Country : TableLanguage TableCode TableValue
N AD Andorra
N AE Verenigde Arabische Emiraten
Table Summons : TableLanguage TableCode TableValue

Pondered,
The question you are asking is the same one that you asked in: http://forums.ni.com/ni/board/message?board.id=170&message.id=132508#M132508, to which I supplied a revised version of the original vi you used (which was modified from the original one I supplied to an earlier thread). A couple of questions: 1) What does my latest not do that is in your question, 2) Why are you starting yet another thread about the same problem? We are here trying to help, it makes it a lot easier if you keep the same problem in the same thread, it reduces duplication of effort from those that might not have been following the previous thread(s). Those of us that don't have our "names in blue" are just doing this "for fun" (the blue names are NI employees, who may still be doing it "for fun"), and it makes it more fun if it doesn't seem (correctly or not) that our attempts are ignored. If an answer doesn't help, or seems incomplete, post a little more detail to the same thread so that the original respondent, or someone new, can provide more information, or understand your problem better.

USING WEBUTIL TO READ TEXT FILE INTO TABLE HANGS AFTER CERTAIN NUMBER OF RE

Dear
when we use webutil to retrieve data from text file into database table
(using text_io) it hangs after certain number of records ( approx. 1300
records) while the total number of records to be inserted in the table exceeds
12000 records while it works properly on forms6i with the normal text_io any
help please...?
thanks and regards

WebUtil uploads the files as Binary - so yes you could have some issues if you have a Unix host - however, that would only mean that there is an extra character to trim off of the end of the line read by Text_io.

Getting row count of file into table column

Hi experts,
I want to insert the row count of the file into a table column for generating a summary file containing the detials of all the files generated for the day along with the row count and also for audit purpose.
My design is to create table in the summary file format & update the data's in it then using OdiSqlUnload to generate the required summary file, for this purpose I need to insert the row count of the file generated.
I tried to get the row count using the http://odiexperts.com/get-file-length-and-header-in-operator post. But passing the "lines" value into a ODI variable or inserting into a table column is not working.
Please help or suggest what can be done to achive the above scenario.
Thanks in advance.

There are a few excellent examples at :- COUNT
Cheers

How to get current month from filename and bulk insert from text file into table?

I set up some dynamic SQL to help my bulk copy data from a text file to a table. This works fine for files that come in every day; I get the previous day’s data, based on the file name that’s placed
in the folder. That’s why I’m using the ‘-1’. The dates will look like this: '20140131', so I'm using type 112.
declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
select @fullpath1 = '''\\system.local\ms\london\FTP\' + convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112) + '_INDEXPRICES_EOM.SPC'''
declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
print (@cmd1)
select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SB_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
print(@cmd1)
exec (@cmd1)
I think the syntax will be somewhat similar to this:
YEAR(date_column)=YEAR(getdate()) AND MONTH(date_column)=MONTH(getdate())
I’m not totally sure how to incorporate that into my current syntax.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

I tried a couple versions of this.
Declare @StartDate Date, @EndDate Date
Select @StartDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-28, 112), @EndDate = convert(varchar, getdate()-1, 112)
BEGIN
declare @fullpath1 varchar(1000)
select @fullpath1 = '''\\ms\london\FTP\' + ''' between ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @StartDate, 101) + ''' and ''' + Convert(Varchar(10), @EndDate, 101) + '''_SP.SPC'''
declare @cmd1 nvarchar(1000)
print (@cmd1)
select @cmd1 = 'bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from ' + @fullpath1 + ' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = ''\t'', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR=''0x0a'')'
print(@cmd1)
exec (@cmd1)
END
Here’s the string:
bulk insert [dbo].[SPBMI_Monthly] from '\\ms\london\FTP\' between '02/03/2014' and '03/02/2014'_SP.SPC' with (FIELDTERMINATOR = '\t', FIRSTROW = 5, LASTROW = 675, ROWTERMINATOR='0x0a')
The error message I keep getting is:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'between'.
Msg 319, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression, an xmlnamespaces clause or a change tracking context clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.
I feel like I’m already pushing this thing to the limit.
Maybe this last part isn’t possible.
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Upload multiple excel files into tables using APEX

Hi folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has ever uploaded multiple .csv files simultaniously and store the data into the database using APEX XE before.
I can browse for a single file, and execute that okay and a good example of doing that can be found at http://advait.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/uploading-excel-sheet-using-oracle-application-express-apex/
This works fine when the user browses to a specific file on their network and then uploads the data from that one file.
However I need the ability to 'grab' every file in a specific directory one after the other to process rather than having to specify which one to load everytime, and wondered if anyone has come across this before.
Many thanks
Graham.

Just for completeness ...
Got this to work, but it's a pl/sql issue as opposed to an APEX issue.
Anyway, if anyone needs to have the ability to read multiple files then a quick easy way to do it (as lomg as they know the file names that will be read), is to create a directory on the database which points to the actual harddrive on your PC, then create a table (called an external table) and read from that external table as if it was an actual database table ...
1 - Log on as sys and grant CREATE ANY DIRECTORY to whatever user you are logging in as (assuming you are not using sys to create apps)
2 - Create a directory e.g....CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY GB_TEST AS 'c:\gbtest';
3 - Create an external table as ...
CREATE TABLE gb_test
(file_name varchar2(10),
rec_date date
rec_name VARCHAR2(20),
rec_age number,
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY GB_TEST
ACCESS PARAMETERS
RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LOCATION ('data1.csv','data2.csv','data3.csv','data4.csv')
PARALLEL 5
REJECT LIMIT 20000;
That's it then ...
select * from gb_test
where file_name = 'xxx'
will return all the data where the file_name = 'xxx'
very easy to use.

Advise about loading File into table in Oracle 8i

Hello there, i need help about something i need to do and i dont know if exist a way in Oracle 8i to do it.
My problem is:
I have a File that has records like:
<code>
data1a|data1b|data1c|data1d
data2a|data2b|data2c|data2d
data3a|data3b|data3c|data3d
dataNa|datanNb|dataNc|dataNd
</code>
The data in this file i need to put into a table with 4 columns like
<code>
create table DataFromFile(
columnA String,
coumnB String,
columnC String,
columnD String
</code>
Exist a way to do this like calling an Stored Procedure and give as input the FILE? or that a JOB can LOAD the file and insert data into the table?
I am not allowed to load the file with Java (in example) and parse it and then insert records... i need to do it by the DB Oracle 8i directly or by a java program that pass the file.
Thanx for any advise u can give me :D

thanx so much to both for answer in my question... im gonna study about yours tips
i actually use JEE in a Weblogic 10.2 server and i need to take a file and load its data into an oracle 8i table but im not allowed to make inserts for every record in the file :(
if u have more suggestions i will study too :) its good to learn other alternatives to solve this issue :)
thanx again

WebUtil uploads the files as Binary - so yes you could have some issues if you have a Unix host - however, that would only mean that there is an extra character to trim off of the end of the line read by Text_io.

If you're on 8.0.3 (which has been desupported for a number of years), then SQL*Loader strikes me as your best option. You could write a batch process that re-loads the file periodically so you see changes or you could write a batch file that polls the timestamp for the file and calls SQL*Loader whenever it is updated.
