Format check for each column in csv file

i want to find out how to check each column value is correct or not while uploading flat file(csv).
after uploading to internal table,
it should display error record and line no of the record.
ex matnr(18) type c,
werks(4) type c.
if we input matnr value more than 18 characters in csv file,
the entire record of internal table should be displayed in log file.
it should validate before sap database validations.

Hi,
Since the file format is csv, while uplaoding the data to the program using the function module, the importing FILE FORMAT is 'ASC' and not 'DAT'.
For this the Internal table should contain only one filed of type C length (255 or 1024, upto you).
Then after this using SPLIT command you will push into another Internal table.
This is where you have to perform the validations.
In my opinion instead of checking the number of characters, chcek whether the material or plant exists in SAP or not?
This is because you have already fixed the filed length of material to 18 charecters, obvious when you try to move a variable with more than 18 charecters to this filed, it will automatically truncate and take only 18 charecters..
Hope I haev answered you. If still have any questions. shoot.

Different format template for each amount column?

Greetings.
Is it possible to assign diffrent format template for each amount column in Excel workbooks?
I'll explain a bit more specific.
Suppose there's a BW report to Excel as below.
      column1   column2   column3
row1 111,111   222,222   333,333
row2 111,111   222,222   333,333
row3 111,111   222,222   333,333
All columns are amounts, so the assigned format templates are all 'SAPBEXstdData'. Here, the needs is that each column have the format of their own, such as 'Centered, large font size, bold, red color, etc'.
I found out in SAP help portal that I can create workbook templates which include custom format templates, such as OurColumn1Template. I also found I can use the workbook templates when opening BW queries. But it doesn't seem possible to automatically specify format template OurColumn1Template is for column1 when creating a new Excel report from BW query or refreshing a query from a Excel report.
How I can control which format template is assigned for which column? No way?
By the way, we are on BW3.5.
Thank you,
T.Yamagiwa

Oh my, I found out! It's easy, in a sense.
We use MS Office 2003, so in the first place we need to change security setting about macro, by the SAP note below.
Note 574596 - BEXAnalyzer SAPBEXOnRefresh is missing on Office XP
https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=REDIR&_NNUM=574596&_NLANG=E
Now that we've got SAPBEXOnRefresh module in a newly created Excel workbook, the rest we need to do is copy the SAPBEXOnRefresh module to the existing workbook, then code the module, like below. (this is only doing left-justification)
Sub SAPBEXonRefresh(queryID As String, resultArea As Range)
    Columns("I:I").Select
    With Selection
        .HorizontalAlignment = xlLeft
    End With
End Sub
I should have search the forum more carefully...hope somebody will find this post kind of useful in the future.

Modify the Data Load wizard to remove the check for unique columns

Hi,
I'm trying to make a Data Loading Wizard into my application, which basically works nice except for one thing:
I want to remove the check for unique columns, and insert ALL data which the users wants to upload.
(Like the Data load utility under development).
The reason is, that the data I want to upload is an export from my bank statements (in XLS / CSV format)
And these exports don't have any primary key.
Using the Apex wizard created Data Upload pages, I will loose data in case I had two identical payments in a day.
Is there a way to do this, while keeping the pages created by the wizard to make Data Loading pages?
apex 4.2.1

I would suggest to load the data into a view and process the records into the real table(s) with instead-of-triggers. When you add a "1=2" where clause to the view, there never is any data and everything will be loaded.
Otherwise you have to have a "real" PK value, like a timestamp or a statement_nr+line_nr.

Is it possible to run a script each time a .CSV file is updated?

I am having trouble with a script I am trying to write, which is made up of two parts:
A .CSV file generated by PHP/MySQL whenever an RSS feed is updated. The contents of the .CSV are overwritten each time the PHP runs.
A DataMerge script, written in JavaScript.
What I would like to do is run the DataMerge script each time the .CSV file is updated. Is this possible, perhaps using an Event Listener within the PHP to trigger the DataMerge script? Or am I approaching this in the wrong way? I'm grateful for any thoughts you might have. Thanks, F.H.

I would use Rorohiko's APID ToolKit: http://www.rorohiko.com/wordpress/indesign-downloads/active-page-item-developer/
It has fileChanged event that is sent after the observed external file has changed.
sorry guys for "labouring the point", but I'm working on very advanced project - and I need to know what my tool can or can't do
and in this case - using APID will break point 2.3 of EULA, right ? interaction with external datasource - without user action ?

FULLNAME     VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)                NOT NULL,
HIREDATE     DATE                             DEFAULT SYSDATE               NOT NULL
-- data file employee.dat

2,cindy,d,cindy d
3,eric,f,eric f

-- Control file : Employee.ctl ( you can use truncate, replace or append , see sqlldr for more options)
load data
Truncate into table employee
fields terminated by ","
optionally enclosed by '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
empId INTEGER EXTERNAL,
FName char(20),

now to load use following or you can speicify infile in control fle

Multi-column Index vs One index for each column

Hello everyone,
i have one table about 20 000 000 rows, some developers have to generate reports on it and i want to create indexes on this table.
The table has 34 columns, no primary key, no unique keys.
The "where..." clause of the reports usually use 8 columns but some reports uses 8 + some other columns.
can any one help me on what kind of indexes do i have to create?
1. one index for each column used in "where clause"
2. one index for 8 columns and some other indexes for other used columns
3. one index for all columns
or something else etc...

1. one index for each column used in "where clause"
2. one index for 8 columns and some other indexes for other used columns
3. one index for all columns
or something else etc...What's the version of your data base? what kind of database you have, DWH or OTLP? The answer might depend on the type of database as far as bitmap indexes might suit or might not depending if you are runing DWH or OLTP kind of database
Let me suppose that you are runing OLTP database and you have a where clause with 8 columns.
1) are all those where clause equalities (where col1 = and col2 =) or there are inequalities?
2) could you evaluate the most repetitive columns?
3) could you know the column that could have the best clustering factor (the column which most follow a certain order in the table)
Based on that I would suggest to create one b-tree index having 8 columns (even though that it seems for me to high) this index should follow the following points:
1) put the most repetitive column at the leading edge (and compress the index if necessary)
2) put the columns that are used in equalitity predicate first
3) put the column having the best clustering factor first
The most precise index you have the best access you could gain.
Of course that you have to know that an index access is not always good and a FULL table scan is not always bad.

Get frequent data for each column of a table

What is the best way to get the most frequent data in each column of a table.
we have around 25 tables and each table has around 20 columns , so rather than writing group by for each column of table , is there any easy way to find this?
example we have table
Column A       Column B         Column C
Apple             Monday             Red
orange            Tuesday            Green
Apple              Monday            Red
Lemon            Wednesday       Green
Apple               Thursday         Red
in this table, column A's frequnt data is Apple , column B's frequent data is Monday , Column C's frequnt data is Red
Apple 3          Monday 2                  Red 3
Orange 2        Tuesday 1                 Green 2
Lemon 1          Wednesday 1
                      Thursday 1
Group by kind of query will give this result, but with 20 tables each having 20 - 30 columns if we need similar kind of result .. is there any way to get this data.

Hi,
GROUP BY (using aggregate functions) is the best way to do what you described.
PIVOT and UNPIVOT are probably what you'd want in this case. The phrase "GROUP BY" may not actually appear in your code, but you'll essentially be doing a GROUP BY.
Analytic functions (rather than aggregate functions) can do the job, too, but they'll be less efficient. Analytic functions get you results about the groups, without losing each row's identify, but in this case, losing each row's identity is eactly what you want to do. You only want 'Apple' to appear 1 time, not 3 times.
The fact that you need to do the same query on 20 different tables suggests that there's something wrong with your table design. Wouldn't it be better to have 1 big table, with a new column that has 20 unique values instead?
I hope this answers your question.
If not, please post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) from all tables involved, so that the people who want to help you can re-create the problem and test their ideas.
Also post the results you want from that data, and an explanation of how you get those results from that data, with specific examples.
Simplify the problem as much as possible. For example, instead of posting a problem with 20 tables, each having 25 columns, post a similar problem involving, say, 2 tables, each with 3 columns.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).

Joe,
I presume you are trying to build Oracle BDB and not bsd as you have mentioned.
Yes, the error message you are getting is for not having the CC compiler in your system or the path isn't set. Check in the /usr/vac/bin directory if you have one in your system. You might find both xlc and cc compiler there. Set this directory to your path so that 'configure' can see it.

Checking for the existence of a file.

I have a GUI to enter test info. A file is created based on the entered test number. I want to check for the existence of a file, and then notify the operator while not allowing the program to save it.

This vi checks the presence of the input file.
If file is not found, it will be created.

Matrix with different dimensions for each column

Hi,
I would like to have a matrix with different dimensions (rows) for each
column, for example, I want the first column has 3 rows, the second one
5 rows, the third one 10 rows, and so on.....
With a simple array it is not possible, and then I make an array (for
my columns) of clusters and each cluster has another array (rows for
that column). Is it the best way to do it? Is it correct?
Thanks,
ToNi.

Want some discription for each column

Hi expert, I have one req.
I created my rpd with around 100 tables and 800 column. Now my user having discription of each column in on excel sheet. Now we want to show discription of each column (once we put our mouse on it in answer). So how can we do it. We dont want to write discription of each column manually. So is there any way to impliment this.
Thanks

Hi Gys,
Thanks for replying.
Kishore thanjks for suggestion .
User need to go our indivisual column in some place , Search that column out of 800 column and then see the discription.
So we are thinking for that type of implimentation.
Kart Thanks for link. But again we have to do it for each column manually i.e for 800 columns. But we dont want that.
