How to load csv file in oracle table

Hi,
i have csv files to which i want to load the csv file data and table structure in oracle. my csv files on the window machine but database is runing on ibm aix.so how to do it please any one can help me about. thanks a lot in advance
i know th syntax below
$sqlldr userid=username/password control=<filename> log=<log filename>

Hello,
Yes, with SQL*Loader you can do it.
But first you have to create a Table into your database with columns and datatype matching
the content of you "csv" file.
Then, you'll have to prepare a control file and use the option fields terminated by "," as it's
a "csv" format.
Then, you could execute your statement.
Please, find enclosed a link with some example about SQL*Loader and "csv" file:

Hope this help.
Best regards,

How to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table

hello everybody,
I am new here and new in Oracle. I would like to know the steps how to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table.
Let say I already have table inside the Oracle. Then my user give me the sets of data inside the Excel Worksheet.
So, how can I import the excel data into Oracle table.
Thank you in advance.
cheers,
shima

Even easier. Download JDeveloper 11G from this site.
Set up the database connection, right click on the table, select Import->Excel and specify your file to load it. On the import pop-up, you must view and update each tab indicating Columns, Data Types, and DML.
Columns -- move the selected columns that you want to load to the box on the right
Data Types -- select column name from second column to which the data for each column of the import file should load
DML -- click this tab to generate the INSERT SQL
Once done click 'Insert'

SQL Loader - Loading Text File into Oracle Table that has carriage returns

Hi All,
I have a text file that I need to load into a table in Oracle using SQL Loader. I'm used to loading csv or comma delimited files into Oracle so I'm not sure what the syntax is when it comes to loading a text file that essentially has one value per row and each row is separated by a carriage return. So when you open the text file, the records look like this:
999999999 <CRLF>
888888889 <CRLF>
456777777 <CRLF>
456555535 <CRLF>
345688888 <CRLF>
So each row is separated by a hard return and I need to tell sql loader that the hard return or next row is the next value to insert into the table. Below is an example of a control file I tend to use as a template for loading csv files but I need to modify it to accomodate this new structure.
OPTIONS (DIRECT=TRUE,ROWS=100000)
UNRECOVERABLE
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\input.txt'
BADFILE 'C:\input.bad'
APPEND
INTO TABLE TEST_TABLE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ","
TRAILING NULLCOLS
COLUMN_1
How to I modify the control file above to use hard returns as the field/row delimiter for my text file?
Thanks

See this posting:

There, I provided a couple of links on this particular issue. You need to change the timeout on your application server.

Hi,
Using GUI_upload convert file to internal table data.
Using the below statement separate header and data from CSV.
Read t_itab into wa_titab index 1.
delete t_itab from wa_itab.
Create an internal table with the structure same as 'CSV' file and use the below statement to separate.
loop at t_itab into wa_itab.
      split wa_itab-rec at ',' into var1 var2 var3.
      wa_output-v1 = var1.
      wa_output-v2 = var2.
      wa_output-v3 = var3.
    append wa_output to t_output.

How to load csv file to table using ssis

Hi,
i have loaded the csv file to table using ssis, it is working file but record is mismatch.
source data :
col1 col2 col3 col4
aa, bb, this is sample,data for the details, this is
column delimiter - comma
col3 - record contains comma. so col3 record after the comma is added with the as col4
i need the col3 record with comma.
so what is the column delimiter will use ?
Regards,
abdul Khadir

Hi Abdul,
Based on your description, you want to distinguish a comma is used for column separator or used in address column in a text file, then load the data from the text file to SQL Server table.
As per my understanding, if you can replace the comma column separator to another delimiter like semicolon (;), just do it. Then we can select Semicolon {;} as Column delimiter for the Flat File Connection Manager. Or ensure all columns are enclosed in double
quotes ("). Then we can set the double quotes (") as Text qualifier for the Flat File Connection Manager, and the commas will be loaded as part of the string fields.
If you can't have that done, because computers don't know the context of the data, you would have to come up with some kind of rules that decides when a comma represents a delimiter, and when it is just part of the text. I think a custom script component
would be necessary to pre-process the data, identify where a comma is part of an address, and then treat that as one field.

Thanks Tony for your quick response!
We need to load a lot of PDfs (history + current).
I have a questions about the SQL loader. I am trying to insert a pdf file into a table by following the oracle loading sample:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/text.920/a96518/aload.htm
Example Data File: loader2.dat
This file contains the data to be loaded into each row of the table, articles_formatted.
Each line contains a comma separated list of the fields to be loaded in articles_formatted. The last field of every line names the file to be loaded in to the text column:
Ben Kanobi, plaintext,Kawasaki news article,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
But i don't know to where should I put my pdf file on the server.
for example:
,../sample_docs/kawasaki.txt,
Where is the file 'kawasaki.txt'??
I try my local path, it didn't work. like c:\temp.
then I loaded teh PDf file into our server(/findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp) , and In my data file. I put the path
1, pdf_emp1,../findev20/olmtest/orafin/11.5.7/olmtestcomn/temp
but I got the error: the system can not find the file specified.
Where should I put the PDf files on the server and how to specify the path in the data file?
Thanks!

Anyone know how to upload csv file to temp table of sybase DB from java?

Dear All,
I blindly need your help in achieving the following:
I have the csv file which contains OrdId and BillId values. I just wanted to read these two values one by one from excel and loaded them into one temp table of Sybase SQL Anywhere.
here is the sample query for your reference:

go
load table tempdb..ordBill from 'c:\\test\\test.csv'Error:
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'.
I am having only one tool Microsoft ISQL/W from which i connect to remote sybase DB and run some queries like sp_help , create etc.. from there.
It would be great,if somebody knows the way of doing the above thru some java program. Otherwise, is there any tool like BCP required to do the above?
Awaiting for your valuable reply
thanks

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.

I have tried your changes but its not working. One more question is that I am having one column which contains commas, when I tried to load the file its failing. I think its the problem with commas.
