How to read a txt file and update DB table

I have to read a table which has some entries in it as plain text file, then I should update my table if the table entries and the data in text file are NOT MATCHING o.w. keep the table entry as it is

It will helps to u
data : begin of t_temp occurs 0,
         text(256),
       end of t_temp.
data : s_file type string.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK B1 WITH FRAME TITLE TEXT-S01.
PARAMETER: P_FILE LIKE RLGRAP-FILENAME.
SELECTION-SCREEN : END OF BLOCK B1.
clear s_file.
move p_file to s_file.
uploade SOURCE file to t_tab1

Reading from XML file and updating the table ????

Hi
I have package which reads the hier.XML file and does Update inserts into the 5 tables
i have table called MAIN_tbl with the column cur_date.
The package kicks if this cur_date is one day less than the hier.XML file DT.
Currently i m manually checking this date's to make sure the Main_tbl cur_date is n sync with
hier.XML file DT.
for example :- hier.xml file DT is "20091020" then main_table cur_date should be 10/19/2009
in order to kicks of the pakage.
what i m looking to do ??
compare the hier.xml DT with the main_table cur_date,
if cur_date is -1(Preivous day) of hier.xml DT then run hier_pkg(Package)
if not then update main_table cur_date to -1(previous day) of the hier.xml DATE
Then later write the above logic to update the main_table in a procedure, and
then call the package from the procedure.
below are the top few lines of the hier.XML file which is relevant to the one which we are trying to do
<?xml version = '1.0'?>
<HIER_POSTING num ="111" HIER_TYP="CD" DT="20091020" Global="Y">
FYI : The hier.XML file is located in UNIX space.
How do i accomplish this. any idea ????
Thank you so much in advance. For giving a thought on this problem!!!

Any thought on this guys ???
Thanks!!

How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.

How can one read a Excel File and Upload into Table using Pl/SQL Code.
1. Excel File is on My PC.
2. And I want to write a Stored Procedure or Package to do that.
3. DataBase is on Other Server. Client-Server Environment.
4. I am Using Toad or PlSql developer tool.

If you would like to create a package/procedure in order to solve this problem consider using the UTL_FILE in built package, here are a few steps to get you going:
1. Get your DBA to create directory object in oracle using the following command:
create directory TEST_DIR as ‘directory_path’;
Note: This directory is on the server.
2. Grant read,write on directory directory_object_name to username;
You can find out the directory_object_name value from dba_directories view if you are using the system user account.
3. Logon as the user as mentioned above.
Sample code read plain text file code, you can modify this code to suit your need (i.e. read a csv file)
function getData(p_filename in varchar2,
p_filepath in varchar2
) RETURN VARCHAR2 is
input_file utl_file.file_type;
--declare a buffer to read text data
input_buffer varchar2(4000);
begin
--using the UTL_FILE in built package
input_file := utl_file.fopen(p_filepath, p_filename, 'R');
utl_file.get_line(input_file, input_buffer);
--debug
--dbms_output.put_line(input_buffer);
utl_file.fclose(input_file);
--return data
return input_buffer;
end;
Hope this helps.

Dude, netiquette. Messages like "i need this now! Do it!" are really offensive and no one here is being payed to answer anyone's questions. We're here because we like to contribute to the community.
Anyway, in your case, just perform some search on how you could filter the files that are attached to the message. The sample module is just an example, you'll have to implement your own. Tips would be to query the filename of the attachments (or maybe content type) and for the ones which are not text, remove them.

Scenario to read from txt-file and create a sales order

Hi,
i have started creating a scenario to read from an txt-file and to create a sales order.
When i activate my scenario, i get the following message :
    no scenario step (vBIU) associated for this step for the incoming system (SysId)
When i look into the detailed xml-file i see that all the records are read from the file, but there is no next step to be treated.
Has somebody any idea how this come ?

Mike,
you were right, you may not specify the extension of a file.
Another thing i detected is that the loop of my data start with the index 1 instead of 0 !!!
In this scenario, i have to read all the lines of the file and each time i should do a SQL-query,
so that i can use the result to build my sales document.
Do you know if it this is possible or have you any idea how to do this ?
thx,
Mario

How to encypt a .txt file and how to decrypt a same .txt file when i need

My requirement is i want to encrypt a .txt file and
keep it in some folder. In that file we put database connection
information. when ever we need that file we have to access it and decrypt
it. with that decrypted values we have make connection with database.
i am sending a code in which i wrote both encyption and decrytion in same file, but i want to do it separately.
Please help me regarding this.

Read from .txt file and output the content as two arrays

I am using the contoured move to control the x-y stage. The trajectory datas for x and y axis are generated using my interpolation program and it is stored in a .txt file as two columns. What I want to do is read .txt file and output the content of this file as two arrays. Is there anyone has any ideas? Thanks, the .txt file is attached.

Hi Awen,
This is quite easy to do, you can merely use the "read from spreadsheet file" function to get a 2D array (2 columns and n rows) and then use the index array function to get whatever row/colums you want..
Hope the attached VI helps you

How To read lib*.so files and verbose its content

Hi
Is there any command with which we can read shared library files and see whats its contents are i.e. whats are the functions available inside it and how its control flow.
Regards

I know of none that shows flow control but you can do a man against nm(1) to see what is in the library (nm libc.so.1).

How to read from excel file and write it using implicit jsp out object

our code is as below:Please give us proper solution.
we are reading from Excel file and writing in dynamicaly generated Excel file.it is writing but not as original excel sheet.we are using response.setContentType and response.setHeader for generating pop up for saveing the original file in to dynamically generated Excel file.
<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
<%
     //String dLoadFile = (String)request.getParameter("jspname1");
     String dLoadFile = "c:/purge_trns_nav.xls" ;
     File f = new File(dLoadFile);
     //set the content type(can be excel/word/powerpoint etc..)
     response.setContentType ("application/msexcel");
     //get the file name
     String name = f.getName().substring(f.getName().lastIndexOf("/") + 1,f.getName().length());
     //set the header and also the Name by which user will be prompted to save
     response.setHeader ("Content-Disposition", "attachment;     filename="+name);
     //OPen an input stream to the file and post the file contents thru the
     //servlet output stream to the client m/c
          FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(f);
          //ServletOutputStream outs = response.getOutputStream();
          int bit = 10;
          int i = 0;
          try {
                    while (bit >= 0) {
                    bit = in.read();
                    out.write(bit) ;
} catch (IOException ioe) { ioe.printStackTrace(System.out); }
          out.flush();
out.close();
in.close();
%>

If you want to copy files as fast as possible, without processing them (as the DOS "copy" or the Unix "cp" command), you can try the java.nio.channels package.
import java.nio.*;
import java.nio.channels.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
class Kopy {
     * @param args [0] = source filename
     *        args [1] = destination filename
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        if (args.length != 2) {
            System.err.println ("Syntax: java -cp . Kopy source destination");
            System.exit(1);
        File in = new File(args[0]);
        long fileLength = in.length();
        long t = System.currentTimeMillis();
        FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream (in);
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (args[1]);
        FileChannel fci = fis.getChannel();
        FileChannel fco = fos.getChannel();
        fco.transferFrom(fci, 0, fileLength);
        fis.close();
        fos.close();
        t = System.currentTimeMillis() - t;
        NumberFormat nf = new DecimalFormat("#,##0.00");
        System.out.print (nf.format(fileLength/1024.0) + "kB copied");
        if (t > 0) {
            System.out.println (" in " + t + "ms: " + nf.format(fileLength / 1.024 / t) + " kB/s");

Help! How to read a .txt file into a Java class and make 2D array?

Hi guys,
Im a newbie with arrays, just started really using them.. please bear with me if I don't seem to understand much..
I have a .txt file that contains either a square or rectangle (random width and length).. How can I read each line into a Java class into a 2D array with rows and columns?

Example :
import javax.swing.*;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.File;
public class ReadInto2DArrayExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        ArrayList array = new ArrayList();
        char [][] twoDimesionArray = null;
        try
            JFileChooser fileChooser = new JFileChooser();
            if (fileChooser.showOpenDialog(null) == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION)
                File file = fileChooser.getSelectedFile();
                BufferedReader reader = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(file));
                String data;
                //Read from file
                while ((data = reader.readLine()) != null)
                    //Convert data to char array and add into array
                    array.add(data.toCharArray());
                reader.close();
                //Creating a 2D char array base on the array size
                twoDimesionArray = new char [array.size()][];
                //Convert array from ArrayList to 2D array
                for (int i = 0; i < array.size(); i++)
                    twoDimesionArray[i] = (char [])array.get(i);
                //Test the 2D Array
                for (int y = 0; y < twoDimesionArray.length; y++)
                    char [] temp = twoDimesionArray[y];
                    for (int x = 0; x < temp.length; x ++ )
                        System.out.print(temp[x]);
                    System.out.println("");
        catch (Exception ex)
            ex.printStackTrace();

How do I read a txt file and keep only IP addresses based on the first 2 or 3 octets of the IP?

Hello,
I have a text file and each line contains random text followed by an IP address as follows.
some text....172.30.25.30
some text.....172.30.85.10
some text..172.30.25.35
some text.......172.30.85.11
some text....172.30.15.1
some text...172.30.15.2
some text.......172.10.1.1
some text...172.20.4.2
some text..172.10.1.2
some text.....172.20.5.1
I'd like to create an output file which has only one entry for each unique entry in the file where either the first 2 or 3 octets are unique as follows:
Output File
172.30.25
172.30.85
172.30.15
172.10.1
172.20
Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thanks for your help! SdeDot

Thanks mjolinor. Works great!
Two questions.
1. Could you plz suggest how this could be modified so this code would read the file in or accept it from the pipeline instead of wrapping the (@' around the data?
2. Could you plz briefly describe some of the details of the code so I can further research and understand.
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for your help! SdeDot
1. It already reads in the file. The (@' .. '@) bits are just there to create a file using your test data to demonstrate that it works.
2. Not user what kind of "details" you want. There really isn't much there, and get-help on the cmdlets used should provide information on what's going on with them in that script.
[string](0..33|%{[char][int](46+("686552495351636652556262185355647068516270555358646562655775 0645570").substring(($_*2),2))})-replace " "

How to read the data file and write into the same file without a temp table

Hi,
I have a requirement as below:
We are running lockbox process for several business, but for a few businesses we have requirement where in we receive a flat file in different format other than how the transmission format is defined.
This is a 10.7 to 11.10 migration. In 10.7 the users are using a custom table into which they are first loading the raw data and writing a pl/sql validation on that and loading it into a new flat file and then running the lockbox process.
But in 11.10 we want to restrict using temp table how can we achieve this.
Can we read the file first and then do validations accordingly and then write to the same file and process the lockbox.
Any inputs are highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Lakshmi Kalyan Vara Prasad.

Hello Gurus,
Let me tell you about my requirement clearly with an example.
Problem:
i am receiving a dat file from bank in below format
105A371273020563007 07030415509174REF3178503 001367423860020015E129045
in this detail 1 record starting from 38th character to next 15 characters is merchant reference number
REF3178503 --- REF denotes it as Sales Order
ACC denotes it as Customer No
INV denotes it as Transaction Number
based on this 15 characters......my validation comes.
If i see REF i need to pick that complete record and then fill that record with the SO details as per my system and then submit the file for lockbox processing.
In 10.7 they created a temporary table into which they are loading the data using a control file....once the data is loaded into the temporary table then they are doing a validation and updating the record exactly as required and then creating one another file and then submitting the file for lockbox processing.
Where as in 11.10 they want to bypass these temporary tables and writing it into a different file.
Can this be handled by writing a pl/sql procedure ??
My findings:
May be i am wrong.......but i think .......if we first get the data into ar_payments_interface_all table and then do the validations and then complete the lockbox process may help.
Any suggestions from Oracle GURUS is highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Lakshmi Kalyan Vara Prasad.

How to Read the "text file and csv file" through powershell Scripts

Hi All
i need to add a multiple users in a particular Group through powershell Script how to read the text and CSV files in powershell
am completly new to Powershell scripts any one pls respond ASAP.with step by step process pls
Regards:
Rajeshreddy.k

Hi Rajeshreddy.k,
To add multiple users to one group, I wouldn't use a .csv file since the only value you need from a list is the users to be added.
To start create a list of users that should be added to the group, import this list in a variable called $users, the group distinguishedName in a variable called $Group and simply call the ActiveDirectory cmdlet Add-GroupMember.
$Users = Get-Content -Path 'C:\ListOfUsernames.txt'
$Group = 'CN=MyGroup,OU=MyOrg,DC=domain,DC=lcl'
Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $Group -Members $Users

Need a VB-Script that read a txt-file and only the lines that are new since last time

Hi,
I need help to write a VB script that read all new lines since the last time.
For example: The script reads the textfile at specific time, then 10 minutes later the script read the file again, and it should now only read the lines that are new since last time. Anyone that has such a script in your scriptingbox?
cheers!

Based on the excellent idea by Pegasus, where is a VBScript solution. I use a separate file to save the last line count read from the file, then each time the file is read I update the line count. Only lines after the last count are output by the program:
Option Explicit
Dim strFile, objFSO, objFile, strCountFile, objCountFile, strLine, lngCount, lngLine
Const ForReading = 1
Const ForWriting = 2
Const OpenAsASCII = 0
Const CreateIfNotExist = True
' Specify input file to be read.
strFile = "c:\Scripts\Example.log"
' Specify file with most recent line count.
strCountFile = "c:\Scripts\Count.txt"
' Open the input file for reading.
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strFile, ForReading)
' Check if the line count file exists.
If (objFSO.FileExists(strCountFile) = False) Then
    ' Initial count is 0, so all lines are read.
    lngCount = 0
Else
    ' Open the line count file.
    Set objCountFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strCountFile, ForReading)
    ' Read the most recent line count.
    Do Until objCountFile.AtEndOfStream
        lngCount = CLng(objCountFile.ReadLine)
    Loop
End If
' Read the input file.
lngLine = 0
Do Until objFile.AtEndOfStream
    ' Count lines.
    lngLine = lngLine + 1
    strLine = objFile.ReadLine
    If (lngLine >= lngCount) Then
        ' Output the line.
        Wscript.Echo strLine
    End If
Loop
' Close all files.
objFile.Close
If (lngCount > 0) Then
    objCountFile.Close
End If
' Ignore last line of the file if it is blank.
If (strLine = "") Then
    lngLine = lngLine - 1
End If
' Save the new line count.
Set objCountFile = objFSO.OpenTextFile(strCountFile, _
    ForWriting, CreateIfNotExist, OpenAsASCII)
objCountFile.WriteLine CStr(lngLine + 1)
objCountFile.Close
