How to retrieve data from SQL server?

I'm thinking this is a request for plug-ins as I'm not aware that Indesign CS3 can hook into a SQL server.
Specifically, I'm trying to connect to a data server which has a built-in "SQL Stored Procedure" which will give me access to this database? I'm trying to avoid dumping into a intermediate data file, like Excel or XML.
What pointers should I try to look into? thanx, sam

I would say it depends on what you need to do. There are a few good plugins for InDesign out there that can hook up to a database, easycatalog by 65 bit http://www.65bit.com and Cacidi http://www.cacidi.com are some of the high end plugins that I can recommend, but the question is if cost outweights need. Both in their full version are quite costly.
If you can give a better description of what you need to do it might be easier to recommend a solution.

Retrieving Data from SQL Server Database

Hi All,
I am working with a program in which i have a requirement to connect to SQL Server Database
and extract the data from the SQL Server Database. I am able to connect to the SQL Database but i am facing problem with the Select Statement. I have the Select Statement
Select PARTNRID from GBA_SI.TRACKING and REFERENCEID3 from HEADER where TRANSTYPE = "INVOIC" and WICOMPLETEDDATETIME is within the date range specified in selection screen (Join on TRANSID).
Can any one tell me how to write the Select Statement in ABAP for retrieving the data from the SQL Server Database.
Regards,
Sudhir

hi check this..
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
       PARTNRID like GBA_SI-PARTNRID,
      end of itab .
data: begin of itab1 occurs 0,
        TRANSID like header-TRANSID,
        TRANSTYPE like header-TRANSTYPE ,
        REFERENCEID3 like header-REFERENCEID3,
        end of itab1 .
select-options:s_PARTNRID for GBA_SI-PARTNRID ,
                     s_date for sy-datum.
Select PARTNRID
    from GBA_SI
         into table itab
where PARTNRID in s_PARTNRID.
select TRANSID
         TRANSTYPE
REFERENCEID3 from HEADER

How to pull data from sql server ( Seperate server) & upload it into sap

Hi All,
I have a SQL Server database in System1,
data base name          DB1
Table name                 TB1
I want pull data from TB1 & upload the same into ztable in SAP.
How I can I achive this in ABAP.
Thanks in Advance
Appropriate points will be rewarded.
Arun kumar

Hi Arun,
You have to do the following:
1. Create an entry in Trxn DBCA for SQL Server in SAP, you are creating a database connection for the SQL server in SAP.
2. You use this connection, and write Native SQL stmnts...between EXECSQL...ENDEXEC to fetch the data..and then normal ABAP statements to put that data into your ztable.
Regards,
Raj
For eg:
TABLE DBCON Entry can be like this...depends on your External database..

How to pull Data from SQL server in FDM

Hi Experts
How to pull the HFM data from One SQL server to Another SQL Server using integration scripts in FDQM?
regards
Dev

Could you clarify why you want to do this?
If you are trying to synchronize two databases (apps) to have a backup or something running in a development environment, I would suggest configuring replication between the two databases. It would be much more efficient to do this at the SQL Server level than through the FDM application, IMHO.

How can I migrate data from SQL Server 6,5 to Oracle 8?

We have a web site based on Microsoft SQL Server 6.5.Now we plan
to migrate the database to Oracle 8.
We have redesigned the tables structure and created tables under
Oracle 8, so we only need to migrate data from SQL Server.
We've exported data from SQL Server to text files.
How can we import data from files and restore to Oracle tables.
Is there a solution which let us to import data for particular

We'll be appreciated if somene can give suggestions.

How to extract incremental data from SQL server to oracle tables in ODI

HI All,
In my ODI sql server is install.My Source is in SQL server and my target is in Oracle.
I need to create a interface mapping where i need to extract incremental data from sql server to oracle.
There is a datetime(with Timestamp) field in sql server .I need to pull incremental data based on dateime.
Example = tablename.DateTime > (select '1-jan-11' from dual) .....i am using this query but its not woking.the error is Invalid object name"dual".
We are not going to use Incremental in IKM and LKM.
Request you to please provide any suggestion ASAP.
Thanks,
Lony

You can do that via Variable.
In the interface mapping create a filter on Tablename.DateTime
and put the condition like this
Tablename.DateTime BETWEEN #VAR and in the variable use this query in refreshing tab with oracle schema
SELECT max(start_time)||' AND '||max(END_TIME)+1 from audit_table where ETL_JOB_CODE = '20'In the package call the above variable in refresh mode and then interface.
This way you will pass from the query between and condition date and pass to interface so that SQL Server fetches the data between those too range.
Note:- You might need to tweak the date format so that SQL Server can understand.
Hope this helps.

Show data from sql server to oracle db

To make heterogeneous connection with oracle:
1.First make an ODBC connection, make entry in System DSN(to create a data source)
2.Make an entry in tnsnames.ora
3.Make an entry in listener.ora under SID_LIST_LISTENER
4.Make an entry in file named init<HS>.ora file located "oracle_base\oracle_home\db\hs\admin"
5.Restart the listener
e.g:
1. create a odbc system dsn named like 'sqlserver'
2. sqlserver= (DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp) (HOST=xx.xx.xx.xx) (PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME=sqlserver))
(HS = OK)
3. (SID_DESC = (SID_NAME = sqlserver) (ORACLE_HOME = oracle_base\oracle_home\db) (PROGRAM = hsodbc) )
4.Create a file named initsqlserver.ora and make the following entry:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = sqlserver
Alternatively, you can copy the file named inithsodbc.ora and rename it to initsqlserver.ora
and edit as HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = sqlserver
5. lsnrctl reload listener_name

Extract the data from SQL Server and Import into Oracle

Hi,
I would like to run a daily job that will export the table data from SQL server table (it will be only one or two table) and Import back into Oracle table (it might one or two table tables).
Could you please guide me that how can i do this using either sql server or oracle?
We have oracle 9.2 and sql server 2005.
Normally i do from flat file which is generated by source destination nand i dump into oracle using sql*loader but this time I have to directly extract/export the data from MS Sql server and load into Oracle table, mostly it will reload so i might doing any massaging data during the load.
If you show me the detail approach, it will be really appreciated.
I have access to Sql server but i don't how to use sql server to do this or using oracle as a daily job even becuase have to schedule the job for this as it will be a daily job.
Thanks,
poratips

Unless you can find an open source ODBC driver for SQL Server that runs on Solaris (and I wouldn't be overly hopeful there) Heterogeneous Services would require that you license something-- a third party ODBC driver, a new Oracle instance, or an Oracle Transparent Gateway.
As I stated below, you could certainly use SQL Server's ETL tool, DTS. Oracle's ETL tools would require additional licensing since you're just on 9.2. You could also write a small application (Java or otherwise) that connected to both databases and transferred the data. If you're particularly enterprising, you could load the SQL Server Type 4 JDBC driver into Oracle's JVM and write a Java stored procedure that connected to the SQL Server database via JDBC, but that's a pretty convoluted approach.

I have no idea what "Oracle Hetrogenius Services" is, so I can't help you with that, sorry.
SQL Developer might also assist you. SQL Developer can connect to SQL Server as well as Oracle and has some tools for migration. See the documentation for details:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12151_01/doc.150/e12156/toc.htm
For additional help on using SQL Developer for this task, please consult Support or the SQL Developer forum: SQL Developer

Loading data from SQL server 2000 to Oracle using OWB 10.2

Hi All,
I have to move data from SQL server to Oracle using OWB. Any idea how to connect to SQL Server thru the OWB design centre console. There is no detail available in the documentation. OWB cocumentation says that "OWB Integrator for Oracle DB & Apps 3.0" is available to connect to Non-Oracle Database (including Sybase, Informix, ODBC).

Hi,
yes, you can use ODBC and configure HSODBC on the database server to create a database link to the sql-server. If your oracle server is microsoft based you are ready, otherwise you have to buy an odbc-driver for linux, unix or whatever you use.
