Hi Srinath,
When i observed the create table syntax of external table from import dump log file, it show few lines as below. I could not understand these special characters. And create table definationis failing with special character viz ORA-00911: invalid character
ACCESS PARAMETERS
LOCATION (EV02_PRICEMARTDATA_CSV_CON:'VPA.csv').
I even observed the create table DDL from TOAD. It is same as i mentioned earlier

Hi... What is the error message you get when using external tables?
You must create a control center connection in the Connection Explorer.
I recommend you read this:
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28223/toc.htm
Look for the following sections:
- Using External Tables (and the "External Tables versus Flat File Operators" sub section)
- About Flat File Modules
- Chapter 16, Deploying Target Systems

How to reject external table rows with some blank columns
How to reject external table rows with some blank columns
I have an external table and I would like to reject rows when a number of fields are empty. Here are the details.
CREATE TABLE EXTTAB (
ID NUMBER(10),
TSTAMP DATE,
C1 NUMBER(5,0),
C2 DATE,
C3 FLOAT(126)
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL (
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY EXT_DAT_DIR
ACCESS PARAMETERS (
RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
LOAD WHEN (NOT (c1 = BLANKS AND c2 = BLANKS AND c3 = BLANKS))
LOGFILE EXT_LOG_DIR:'exttab.log'
BADFILE EXT_BAD_DIR:'exttab.bad'
DISCARDFILE EXT_BAD_DIR:'exttab.dsc'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "|"
LRTRIM
MISSING FIELD VALUES ARE NULL
REJECT ROWS WITH ALL NULL
FIELDS (
ID,
TSTAMP DATE 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS',
C1,
C2 DATE 'YYYYMMDDHH24MISS',
C3
) LOCATION ('dummy.dat')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED
So, as you can see from the LOAD WHEN clause, I'd like to reject rows when C1, C2 and C3 are empty.
The above statement works fine and creates the table. However when I am trying to load data using it, the following error is produced:
ORA-29913: error in executing ODCIEXTTABLEOPEN callout
ORA-29400: data cartridge error
KUP-00554: error encountered while parsing access parameters
KUP-01005: syntax error: found "not": expecting one of: "double-quoted-string, identifier, (, number, single-quoted-string"
KUP-01007: at line 1 column 41
ORA-06512: at "SYS.ORACLE_LOADER", line 14
ORA-06512: at line 1
It seems that external tables driver does not understand the "NOT (...)" condition. Could anyone suggest how I can achieve what I want in a different way?
Thank you.
DenisAnother method would be to simply remove the "LOAD WHEN condition" and create a view on the external table which filters the data.
CREATE EXTTAB_VIEW AS
SELECT * FROM EXTTAB
WHERE not (c1 is null and c2 is null and c3 is null); -
How to drop external table together with the linked file
Hi,
I am running 10g and using the external table feature to move data between two databases. Now the procedure I am using has to make sure, that on the target db the external tables created on the previous run are not existing.
As far I know the statement
DROP TABLE <EXTERNAL TABLE NAME>; does not remove the file.
How to achieve the goal?
Thanks!Can you use the UTL_FILE.FRemove function to delete the underlying file? That seems like the simplest solution. Assuming, of course, that you have the appropriate privileges to do so.
Justin
Of course, I'd generally question why you're using external tables and flat files to move data between databases rather than database links, but I assume you have valid reasons for that...

How to import the data in a .xls or .xlsx file into a oracle database table
Hi,
Please tell me how to import the data in a .xls or .xlsx file into a oracle database table in Oracle 10gR2 using Oracle Warehouse Builder 10gR2.....can we do something through Non-Oracle->ODBC?Yes, it is possible, look at this thread
[SQLServer access from AIX Warehouse builder|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2502982]
If your server (with target DB and OWB runtime) is on Windows OS this configuration will be simpler - you can use single server.
And additional link on OWB blog (with 11g transparent gateway)
[http://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/2008/01/11g_heterogeneous_agent.html]
(configuring nonoracle connection with 10g generic connectivity very similar to 11g gateway)

External Table which can handle appending multiple csv files dynamic
I need an external table which can handle appending multiple csv files' values.
But the problem I am having is : the number of csv files are not fixed.
I can have between 2 to 6-7 files with the suffix as current_date. Lets say it will be like my_file1_aug_08_1.csv, my_file1_aug_08_2.csv, my_file1_aug_08_3.csv etc. and so on.
I can do it by following as hardcoding if I know the number of files, but unfortunately the number is not fixed and need to something dynamically to inject with a wildcard search of file pattern.
CREATE TABLE my_et_tbl
my_field1 varchar2(4000),
my_field2 varchar2(4000)

Joshua..Well, you could do it dynamically by constructing location value:

Hi, I want to know how to use external tables? The procedure i follow for SQL*Loader in my shell script is:
Call the sqlldr
Check return code
If return code = 2. get count of records from bad file and exit.
If return code != 0 and != 2 then exit as fatal error
If return code = 0 then continue.
But i don't understand how to use external table as it is not invoked and does not have a return code.Hello,
What do you mean alogrithim, do you mean to invoke external table as you invoke sqlldr? You can generate external table script from sqlldr and use it to load data but you might have to modify the table name and datafile name . You can see if any bad file generated from sqlldr and if yes then you can generate external table (using sqlldr) or based on your bad file. May be if you can list what exactly you want in bullet points, then it will be easier to suggest you.

So after analysing this log file, i created

And i started to [b]IMPORT ONE MORE TIME. with:

COMMIT=Y INDEXFILE=c:\temp\FOLD_1\BOO_idx.sql

after that i could not see the users nor the

and the following message appeared in the log file:

and only 2 new tablespaces (originally 3) were
created without any data in ( i check that in
the Oracle Storage manager : the tablespaces exit

But where is my Export dump file ?
Besides, could you tell me the procedures of using BRTools Export & Import to do off-line table reorgan ?
Due to some reasons, I can't do online table reorgan.Hi Ming,
I noted the OSS note 646681 - Reorganizing tables with BRSPACE in my previous message, already. You don't need any additional effort such as creating script, if you use brspace as I noted in my last message.
Stop the SAP system, but not database then execute the command, below;
1) brspace -u / -f tbreorg -t "CDHDR"
2) At the incoming menu steps, select --> (8 - Table reorganization mode (mode)) .. offline
3) Then continue with "c"
At the end of this steps, table and related indexes will be reorganized.
You can update statistics by using the command, below after you complete the steps, above respectfully;
brconnect -u / -c -f stats -t all -f collect -p 4

Running Captivate 8 on a Macbook and I am unable to import Powerpoint 2011 (which is up to date) files or slides. I get an error saying that either the file is damaged or I am using an older version of PP....which is not the case. I tried creating a very simple PP file with just a few words on one slide...ran a compatibility check and all was good. Still could not import that simple slide into Captivate.
OK...found out it did not like me saving as a *.pptx. When I save it as a *.ppt file it imported in correctly. Is this what I will need to do moving forward? I am not sure if I am losing any functionality in the process...
