How to populate a table instaed of creating a file

Hello Everybody,
I have been thinking if any of you has ever done simmilar thing..
I have a crontab task that runs a script that gathers some space statistics each month from couple of servers..and sends an output to a file..
how to redirect that output so it populates certain table in the database?
can you recomend best approach?
thanks a lot,
agat81

The easiest way would be to create your file in a way that it will look like
insert into your_table_name values (bla, 1,2 ,3);
insert into your_table_name values (blub, 4,5 ,6);
commit;
Then execute the script with sqlplus from cron.

How to Populate Internal table data to Table Control in a Report Program

Dear All,
       How to Populate Internal table data to Table Control in a Report Program? It is a pure report program with out any Module pool coding involved, which is just used to display data. Till now it is being displayed in a report. Now the user wants the data to be displayed in a table control. Could someone tell me how to go about with this.
Thanks in Advance,
Joseph Reddy

If you want to use a table control, you will need to create a screen.
In your report....
start-of-selection.
perform get_data. " Get all your data here
call screen 100. " Now present to the user.
Double click on the "100" in your call screen statement. This will forward navigate you to the screen. If you have not created it yet, it will ask you if you want to create it, say yes. Go into screen painter or layout of the screen. Use the table control wizard to help you along the process. It will write the code for you. Since it is an output only table control, it will be really easy with not a lot of code.
A better way to present the data to the user would be to give it in a ALV grid. If you want to go that way, it is a lot easier. Here is a sample of the ALV function module. You don't even have to create a screen.
report zrich_0004

How to populate a table based on a row selection from another table.

Hi, i just started to use ADF BC and Faces. Could some one help me or point me a solution on the following scenario .
By using a search component , a table is being displayed as a search result. If i select any row in the resulted table , i need to populate an another table at the bottom of the same page from another view. These two tables are related by primary key . May i know how to populate a table based on a row selection from another table. Thanks
ganesh

I understand your requirement and the tutorial doesn't talk about Association between the views so that you can create a Master-Detail or in DB parlance, a Parent-Child relationship.
I will assume that we are dealing with two entities here: Department and Employees where a particular Department has many Employees and hence a Parent-Child relationship.
Firstly, you need to create an Association between the two Entities - Department and Employees. You can do that by right clicking on the model's entity and then associating the two entities with the appropriate key say, DepartmentId.
Once you have done that, you need to link the two entities in the View section with this Association that you created. Then go to AppModule and make sure that in the Available View Objects: 'EmployeesView' appears under 'DepartmentView' as "EmployeesView via <link you created>". Shuttle the 'DepartmentView' to the right, Data Model and then shuttle
"EmployeesView via <link you created>" to the right, Data Model under 'DepartmentView'.
This will then be reflected in your Data Controls. After that, you simply would have to drag this View into your page as a Master-Detail form...and then when you run this page, any row selected in the Master table, would display the data in the Detail table.
Also, refer to this link: [Master-Detail|http://baigsorcl.blogspot.com/2010/03/creating-master-detail-form-in-adf.html]
Hope this helps.

How to Populate a table in PL/SQL

Hi Every1,
please clarify me How to Populate a table in PL/SQL,Thanx in advance...
Thanks & Regards,
Ram Nainar S

Not possible. SQL is used to populate tables - it is the language that interacts (CRUD) Oracle data in tables. Not PL/SQL.
So even when using PL/SQL, you still need to use SQL. Thus "populating" a table is no different than using SQL or using SQL (from inside PL/SQL).

How to load color table in a indexed mode file??

How to load color table in a indexed mode file??
Actually, if i opened a indexed file and want to edit color table by loading another color table from desktop (or any other location), any way to do this through java scripting??

continuing...
I wrote a script to read a color table from a GIF file and save to an ACT color table file. I think it might be useful for someone.
It goes a little more deeper than the code I posted before, as it now identifies the table size. It is important because it tells how much data to read.
Some gif files, even if they are saved with a reduced palette (less than 256), they have all the bytes for the full color palette filled inside the file (sometimes with 0x000000). But, some gif files exported in PS via "save for web" for example, have the color table reduced to optimize file size.
The script store all colors into an array, allowing some kind of sorting, or processing at will.
It uses the xlib/Stream.js in xtools from Xbytor
Here is the code:
// reads the color table from a GIF image
// saves to an ACT color table file format
#include "xtools/xlib/Stream.js"
// read the 0xA byte in hex format from the gif file
// this byte has the color table size info at it's 3 last bits
Stream.readByteHex = function(s) {
function hexDigit(d) {
    if (d < 10) return d.toString();
    d -= 10;
    return String.fromCharCode('A'.charCodeAt(0) + d);
var str = '';
s = s.toString();
     var ch = s.charCodeAt(0xA);
    str += hexDigit(ch >> 4) + hexDigit(ch & 0xF);
return str;
// hex to bin conversion
Math.base = function(n, to, from) {
     return parseInt(n, from || 10).toString(to);
//load test image
var img = Stream.readFromFile("~/file.gif");
hex = Stream.readByteHex(img);      // hex string of the 0xA byte
bin = Math.base(hex,2,16);          // binary string of the 0xA byte
tableSize = bin.slice(5,8)          // Get the 3 bit info that defines size of the ct
switch(tableSize)
case '000': // 6 bytes table
tablSize = 2
break;
case '001': // 12 bytes table
tablSize = 4
break;
case '010': // 24 bytes table
tablSize = 8

This program is working fine. You can test it.
Only problem is as the column headings are big for some columns, they are getting truncated which you can always change by changing the column width in declaration
Please let me know if this helps.

How to populate a Table inside a structure?

Hello,
Im very new to ABAP and Im having a rather sily problem. I have a Structure (ZSHIPMENT) with one component (CASES) of the type Z_CASE_TABLE. Z_CASE_TABLE is a table with a line type of ZCASE_STR. ZCASE_STR is a Structure with one Component (CASE_ID) of type String.
So ZSHIPMENT - ZCASE_TABLE - ZCASE_STR - CASE ID.
I want to write some code to create this object and use it in a method.
This is what Im trying:
method TEST_02.
DATA: Shipment TYPE ZSHIPMENT,
case TYPE ZCASE_STR.
case-case_id = 'case1'.
INSERT case INTO Shipment-cases.
endmethod.
But I get this error: CASE is not an internal table - the "OCCURS n" specification is missing.
Can someone give me a hint on how to populate my memory object?
Ive tryed all shorts of things but I never get it to work.
Thanks in advance.
Gonso

Ramiro,
wow! you hit the nail in the head! The zshipment type was not active to its latets version. Thanks to the debugger I could see its real face.
Thanks!!!!

Hi Mihai,
You can populate data in DO_INIT_CONTEXT method of ur impl class in your Z component.
data:
lv_struct_ref type ref to YOUR_STRUCTURE,
lv_value_node type ref to cl_bsp_wd_value_node,
lv_bo_coll type ref to if_bol_bo_col.
Data: current type ref to if_bol_bo_property_access.
data: dref type ref to data.
data: lv_guid_h type crmt_object_guid.
data: lt_attr type table of YOUR_STRUCTURE.
data: ls_attr type YOUR_STRUCTURE.
data: lr_entity type ref to cl_crm_bol_entity.
create object lv_bo_coll type cl_crm_bol_bo_col.
lt_attr is ur internal table.
Loop at lt_attr into ls_attr.
  create data lv_struct_ref.
  create object lv_value_node
       exporting
            iv_data_ref = lv_struct_ref.
call method lv_value_node->if_bol_bo_property_access~set_property
exporting
iv_attr_name = 'YOURFIELDNAME1'
iv_value = ls_attr-firstname.
call method lv_value_node->if_bol_bo_property_access~set_property
exporting
iv_attr_name = ' YOURFIELDNAME2'
iv_value = ls_attr-lastname.
lv_bo_coll->add( lv_value_node ).
typed_context->YOURCONTEXTNODE->set_collection( lv_bo_coll ).
endloop.

How to populate a table by sending a csv attachment to a particular mail id

with fields: name, designation, address
and i am sending a csv attachemnt with the values , name, designation, address to a generic email id say : [email protected]
my table -test should be populated automatically with the values from the attached csv.
Any idea how this can be achieved ?
Regards,
Archana

Hi,
Why cant you try uploading the data in your csv file to your table by using external table concepts? This would help you much i beleive.
CREATE TABLE "EXT_EMP_TEST"
   (     "EMPNO" NUMBER,
     "EMPNAME" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE),
     "JOB" VARCHAR2(20 BYTE)
   ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
    ( TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
      DEFAULT DIRECTORY "DUMP_DIR"
      ACCESS PARAMETERS
      ( RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
           BADFILE 'emp.bad'
                      LOGFILE 't.log_xt'
                      FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY ' " ' LDRTRIM
                      REJECT ROWS WITH ALL NULL FIELDS
          "EMPNO",
          "EMPNAME",
          "JOB"
      LOCATION
       ( 'emp_det.dat'
   REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;
{code}
In the above code, default directory is the place where the file resides in your server. So before creating an external table you need to follow the below steps,
1. Create a default directory.
2. Place your file into that directory.
3. Create an external table using the above script.
4. Just execute the simple select statement upon that external table, {code} select * from EXT_EMP_TEST {code}
*NOTE: In the above exaple i have used .dat file to load the data, you need to specify .csv over there*

How to populate a table in JDeveloper 9i on page display?

Can anybody help me out regarding this issue.
The issue is i want to populate a table on displaying a page in OAF using JDeveloper.
The methods which i know are populating on clicking button,etc.
But how to populate on first time page display.

It would be easier to answer in case you have provided more details of what you are doing currently.
Anyway, assuming that you are trying to show data from some DB table on an OA page and you have the mapping done on your OA table columns, all you need is call executeQuery on the VO attached to the table in the processRequest of the page controller.

Dear folks
M about to create a midlet
application in which i need to populate my table
with the current stock exchange values. Since these
values get changed dynamically , I planned to use
streaming. Since m new to streaming ,pls someone
come up to guide me in right path. M using Canvas
application. I appreciate all the repliesthats fine and funny....
let me tell you something, in GCF everything you fetch through GPRS is bound to come as an inputstream and whatever request you send is passed as outputstream. so if you have worked with GCF, you have worked with streaming already. isn't it.
