And what is the format that is defined? Or are you referring to MAT files, which are binary files specific to Matlab?

Actually I read some already answered posts. But still I have some doubts.
Can anybody please send me the code.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Priya,
Check this code
Yhe logic used here is as follows,
Get all the data into an internal table in the simple format ie: a row with one field contains an entire line
After getting the data, we split each line of the table on every occurrence of the delimiter (comma in your case)
Here, I have named the fields as field01, field02 etc, you could use your own names according to your requirement
parameters: p_file(512).
DATA : BEGIN OF ITAB OCCURS 0,
          COL1(1024) TYPE C,
         END OF ITAB,
         WA_ITAB LIKE LINE OF ITAB.
DATA: BEGIN OF ITAB_2 OCCURS 0,
    FIELD01(256),
    FIELD02(256),
    FIELD03(256),

   END OF ITAB_2.
DATA: WA_2 LIKE LINE OF ITAB_2.
    OPEN DATASET p_FILE FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING NON-UNICODE.
    IF SY-SUBRC = 8.
      WRITE:/ 'File' , p_FILE , 'cannot be opened'.
      LV_LEAVEPGM = 'X'.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
    WHILE SY-SUBRC <> 4.
      READ DATASET p_FILE INTO WA_ITAB.
      APPEND WA_ITAB TO ITAB.
    ENDWHILE.
    CLOSE DATASET p_FILE.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB.
    SPLIT WA_ITAB-COL1 AT ','    " where comma is ur demiliter
     INTO WA_2-FIELD01 WA_2-FIELD02 WA_2-FIELD03 WA_2-FIELD04

How to save CSV file in application server while making infospoke

How to save CSV file in application server to be used as destination while making infospoke.
Please give the steps.........

Hi
If you want to load your flatfile from Application server,then you need to trasfer your file from your desktop(Computer) to Application server by using FTP.
Try using ARCHIVFILE_CLIENT_TO_SERVER Function module.
You Just need to give thesource path and the target path
goto SE37 t-code , which is Function module screen, give the function name ARCHIVFILE_CLIENT_TO_SERVER, on click F8 Execute button.
for path variable give the file path where it resides like C:\users\xxx\desktop\test.csv
for target path give the directory path on Application server: /data/bi_data
remember the directory in Server starts with /.
U have to where to place the file.
Otherwise use 3rd party tools to connect to ur appl server like : Core FTP and Absolute FTP in google.
Otherwise...
Goto the T.code AL11. From there, you can find the directories available in the Application Server.
For example, if you wanna save the file in the directory "DIR_HOME", then you can find the path of the directories in the nearby column. With the help of this, you can specify the target path. Specify the target path with directory name followed by the filename with .CSV extension.
Hope this helps

How to change open file dialogue box date format

Hi - I can't find how to change the date format whenever I open any creative suite document - my system preferences are set to dd/mm/yy and every other application shows this date except for CS4 it shows mm/dd/yy. Can anyone help please. Much appreciated.

Hi, I'm having the same problem with the date format - all Creative Suite 'open' menu items are showing US format mm/dd/yyyy rather than UK format dd/mm/yyyy... although everything else on my system is set for UK format and all other programs open properly. The strange thing is: I'm sure this has only just happened after years of using Creative Suite... I'm sure I would have noticed it before. I'm on CS3 so haven't had any recent updates that might have affected it.

How to use csv files in OWB

Hi Experts
I have one UNIX server and i my user is putting the csv files on windows machine. I want
1. If User put some new csv file in windows machine it should automatically reflect in UNIX machine.
2. If user enter some data in windows csv files then it should be reflect in UNIX csv files automatically
3. Now I want to connect my OWB with these UNIX csv fils. my csv files are in /home/oracle.source directory.
Regards
Frnd

Let me give an insight of how it works for me:
1. A CSV file is created in unix at a specified location.
2. Using ULTRAEDIT software(installed on windows client) FTP is configured to access the unix server.
3. Open the file stored in unix through ULTRAEDIT from windows.
4. MAKE changes to the file from ultraedit in windows.
5. SAVE it and close ULTRAEDIT.
The changes will be automatically reflected in unix without having the need to FTP it.
OWB accesses the CSV file from unix and does further processing.
Not sure if OPs can do this but this is probably the easiest way of achieving what he wants and this approach works very well for me.

How to change the file name of pdf file in html page?

Hi,
Actually my requirement is to upload 50 PDF files containing javascript in each file into flex page with the help of one html page.
i did the the javascript part by using batch processing.
now i want to call those pdf files one after another without changing the file name in html page
the code written in html page is
<html>
    <body>
        <object id="PDFObj"
                data="http:\\localhost\pdf\20090807 - Batch 630.pdf"
                type="application/pdf"
                width="100%"
                height="100%">
        </object>
        </body>
</html>
So every time i have to change that file name to acess another file.
Is there is any other way to sort this problem????
Plz anyone help me to sort out this problem with some code or some example.

I once had a similar task for creating a webpage that I only use on my computer--a webpage that accesses PDF's and SWF's font previews from a list of fonts as "a href's". What you must do is utilize the power of the command line, whether on a Mac on a PC or on Linux, Linux being the most powerful (although Mac IS Unix). You must utilize variables, variable replacement, and then a command to print out the results of a "for" or "while" loop to a text file which will be your HTML file with each individual link automatically built into the HTML code. You will have a list of 50 links. If you are simply looking for a GOOGLE type functionality where you click on "Next" and "Previous" you will have to dig deeper into variable replacement--this I don't know how to do yet but there are books for command-line shell interpreters. One shell interpreter is called "bash" (born-again shell) and there is a book on the market which gives a detailed example of how to replace variables in a shell script. Again, I don't know how it works. I will try to learn this at a later time when I am more seasoned with the basics of shell scripting.

How to load CSV files into HANA

1.- Create an CSV file with your data
2.- Copy the file to dropbox/yourname inside the HANA box
3.- Create a table in HANA with the structure of your file
4.- create the control file BBB with the following information:
import data
into table XXX."YYY"
from 'ZZZ.csv'
record delimited by '\n'
fields delimited by ','
optionally enclosed by '"'
error log 'Text_Tables.err'
Where XXX is your schema, YYY is your HANA Table and ZZZ is your file
5.- Open an Script File and write the following:
LOAD FROM '/filer/dropbox/yourname/BBB.ctl';
where BBB is the name of your control file
Greetings,
Blag.

With the recent upgrade to the HANA SP3...the method to upload files to HANA has been slightly changed...so here's the updated tutorial:
1.- Create an CSV file with your data
2.- Copy the file to the HANA Dev Center
3.- Open a FTP connection to ftp.sapdevcenter.com
(You can find the user name and password by doing a select to SYSTEM.FTP_SERVER)
and....*Don't paste the Username or password here or any other place!*
4.- Create a folder with your name on the FTP site and copy the file there
4.- Create a table in HANA with the structure of your file
5.- create the control file BBB with the following information:
import data
into table XXX."YYY"
from 'ZZZ.csv'
record delimited by '\n'
fields delimited by ','
optionally enclosed by '"'
error log 'Text_Tables.err'
Where XXX is your schema, YYY is your HANA Table and ZZZ is your file
5.- Open an Script File and write the following:
IMPORT FROM '/dropbox/yourname/BBB.ctl';
where BBB is the name of your control file
I just test it and it works...if it doesn't work for you, please let me know
Greetings,
Blag.

How to import csv-file in Numbers 3.2.2.

I start using Numbers in stead of Excel. I would like to import csv-files from my bank, but when I open the csv-file in Numbers, everything is imported in the same cell. I composed a testfile: 01/08/2014,”text”,”more text”,”even more text” in Pages, exported to a textfile and changed the extension from .txt in .csv. It did not help, everything was in the same cell. What must be changed to become successful in importing csv-files? I am using Numbers 3.2.2. and an iMac with 2,8 GHz Intel Core i7 processor and 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory with OS X 10.9.4.
Thanks, Joan Voormolen

You can do this using Pages. Without using outside scripts or functions. The Pages Find/Replace function will let you change the delimiter on the data in your file.
Open the file in Pages. Click Show Invisibles. (this will show you the delimiter used in the file)
If you see a * as the delimiter, that is a space. Some data files are space delimited. This is a really poor way to delimit numerical data files.
If you see a fat arrow to the right, the file is Tab delimited
Obviously, a comma is not a hidden character. Some files are comma delimited
Whatever else might have been used as a delimiter (for example a semi colon is sometimes used) will be apparent.
The delimiter should be something that is not used anywhere else in the "data"... text, numbers, etc., you want to delimit. Numbers considers a comma as a valid delimiter for files with the suffix .csv . It considers a tab as a valid delimiter with files with the suffix .txt . It does not consider spaces a valid delimiter in with any file suffix. But some programs use odd delimiters (semi colon, colon, double spaces, etc) as delimiters.
Use the Find command, then Find/Replace as you need to create that delimiter numbers recognizes. Let's say a semi colon was used as a delimiter. Enter the current delimiter (semi colon) into the Find box. Pages should highlight all the instances of your entry. Enter a comma (to create comma delimited data file) in the Replace box. You should now see a comma as the delimiter.
Important Don't forget, any other comma used in the file will also be considered a delimiter. (a comma in 1,000 for example). So check the data. If you see a comma used another way you will want to eliminate that BEFORE you do the "comma as delimiter" replacement. If you have 1,000, do a find/replace with comma as the find, nothing as the replace, first. THEN do the replacement of the semi colon.
Now comes the "tricky" part from what I could see. You want to save this new file with a suffix of .csv. (Export the file) Numbers will only open a comma delimited file with separated data (by comma) if it's suffix is .csv. Pages only gives you limited export options and puts the file suffix on for you automatically. CSV is not one of the options!
Choose Text. Pages will name the file .txt. Quit Pages. Go to the file on your desktop (or wherever you saved it). Change the file suffiix from .txt to .csv.
That's it. Open the file with Numbers. Numbers will create a separate column for everything between the comma's.
You can use this same method to alter your data file before you import it into Numbers. For example, one file I wanted to import had time=xxx . I only wanted the actual time, not the text attached to it, in my spreadsheet. I did a find/replace with "time=" as the find. A comma as the replace. Even though "time=xxx" is one "word", Pages identified the "time=" within the word to allow the replacement.
Numbers does not provide a "choose delimiter" function when opening a file. Instead it automatically uses the standard delimiter based on the file suffix. CSV means Comma, so if the file is named .csv it will only look for and use a comma as the delimiter to put the data into separate columns. I believe .txt uses only a tab as the delimiter. In the above example you could find/replace to a Tab. Then Export to Text. And numbers will open the data into columns the way you want, without the extra step of renaming the file on your desktop.
While some files use a second space (ie two in a row) as a delimiter that's a nasty way to delimit. You always want a specific delimiter that is not used within the data element.
The above is to import numerical data into separate columns. You could use the same method to manipulate a file that contains text. Let's say you had a file with the suffix .txt. In the file are names and addresses. John Smith 246 Rose Road . You want Name in one column. Address in another. Look at all the spaces, which ones should be delimiters which not? Are there any delimiters in the file?
If you open with Pages and choose show invisibles you can see. You might see John Smith --> 246 Rose Road. (the --> will look like a fat arrow in Pages). Numbers will open this file, IF it has .txt as the suffix, based on the Tab, with name in one column, Address in another.
Or you might see John*Smith**246*Rose*Road. Even though the creator of this intended two spaces to be a delimiter Numbers does not recognize that. Numbers will put everything into one column. The fix? In Pages, put a tab between name and address. Find/replace two spaces with Tab. Export, as Text.
Based on what you see (with show invisible active) in Pages, you can use the Find/Replace function to create the specific delimiter you want (tab or comma). You can use that function to manipulate the file easily so the data you want shows up in separate columns. You may need to get clever to accomplish the unique delimiters. You might even need to do two passes with Find/Replace.
In the instance above if there was only one space between each element. (not two as a pseudo delimiter) You could replace all spaces with a tab in Pages. Export as Text. Numbers will open that file with a column for each word (one for John, one for Smith). Then "Merge" the two cells (columns) you want to put back together.

How to upload CSV file w/o ,, for the last line

Hi Experts,
As part of one interface uploading the csv file (4coulmns) manually using the TCODE: CSCA_FILE_COPY.
After uploading when i see in the AL11 as it is csv file it is filling the , in each space.
But my issue while running the interface (because of logic in it) checking for the hash total in the last line where (record count, hash total) only 2 items should come but because of manual upload adding the (record count, hash total, , ,) another two spaces.
Where program not moving further becasue the it is alway comparing the amounts (1000.00 not matching with 1000.00, , ) it is not processing. In production files directly load in to unix server so no issues and i can't ask to change the program code...because iam not following the process. As part of testing i've to do manually only.
Please suggest the workaround for this.
Is it possible to change the contents directly in AL11 directly....then HOW ?
or
How to create a csv file w/o , , in the last line (may be it is not possible) ?
Thanks for your replies in advance.
Regards
VVR

I don't think you can edit from AL11, nor creating a CSV without those commas at the end because are created to state fields with empty value.
You have 6 columns filled with values but for the last line you only fill the first four. It is expected to appear , , for the last 2 columns on the last line.
I can only suggest keep doing it manually before uploading the CSV file... or... you are saying you can't change the program.
How about upload all CSV files... then writing another program to get those files from AL11 and delete the spare commas at the end line?
Cheers,
Andres.
