How to retrieve Outline Into Relational Database??

sir i have installed Hyperion and SQL server 2008 On my system ..
I am working on ETL process .
I have OUTLINE DATABASE OTL FILE that i have to retrieve in RELATIONAL DATABASE MDF FILE...
so how can I do this??
thanking you for view this question and giving me answer...

Hi,
Depends on what products you are willing to use, personally I would use ODI to extract the outline information and then load into a table, another option would be use the applied olap outline extractor (which is free) or you could use one of the APIs and write the code to extract and load.
Cheers

How to import spreadsheet into relational database?

I hope this is the best forum for placing this type of question. I had a general question regarding what are the best/accepted methods for doing this type of thing. XML? Web Services? Combination of things?
I have an existing Oracle relational database, containing several tables. From the client, I receive bulk amount of data (in Excel spreadsheet format) that needs to be directly imported into the database (while respecting all of the integrity and foreign key constraints). The data from the spreadsheet cannot be directly dumped into one table. For example, if you have information in the spreadsheet that captures Country and the user has entered in 'Spain'. You would have to look up 'Spain' in the Countries Table to retrieve its id value and then use this as a foreign key value in the appropriate table.
So my question is, how do I go about doing this? What steps and what technologies are best in achieving this goal? I am thinking XML should play a part in this somehow. I have played around with a trial version of XMLSpy and generated an xsd file from my database, but I am not sure where to go from there. My IDE is IBM RAD 7, however I am not sure if I should try doing this separate from the actual application or not.
Please advise. Any ideas or feedback of previous experience regarding this type of task is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

You have some arbitrary data somewhere in an Excel spreadsheet. You're going to need some code which knows where that data is and how to get at it. You weren't planning for any such code? Or were you hoping it would somehow happen automatically? I don't seem to be following your understanding of the problem at all.
Here's how I see it:
1. Get the data from the spreadsheet.
2. Update the database with that data.
You have to do both of these things. You can hard-code the bit which says "get the order quantity from cell J6" or you can write your own language that allows you to say that outside Java, it doesn't really matter. This could be XML if you're determined to get XML in there somehow. But you are going to need code that reads the spreadsheet.

How to updated matrix into related table?

hi, can anyone help me below coding how to updated matrix into related table?
Thank you.
            For rowNum = 0 To oMatrix.RowCount
                oRecordset.Fields.Item("Code").Value = oMatrix.Columns.Item("DSCode").Cells.Item(rowNum).Specific.Value
                oRecordset.Fields.Item("Name").Value = oMatrix.Columns.Item("DSName").Cells.Item(rowNum).Specific.Value
                oRecordset.Fields.Item("U_RPTC").Value = oMatrix.Columns.Item("DSReport").Cells.Item(rowNum).Specific.Value
                oRecordset.Fields.Item("U_USRC").Value = oMatrix.Columns.Item("DSUser").Cells.Item(rowNum).Specific.Value
                oRecordset.MoveNext()
            Next

For Fast Matrix Loading you can user some thing like this.
        Dim Column As SAPbouiCOM.Column
        Dim Matrix As SAPbouiCOM.Matrix
        Dim Table As SAPbouiCOM.DataTable
        Table = oForm.DataSources.DataTables.Add("Documents")
        Table.Columns.Add("Code", SAPbouiCOM.BoFieldsType.ft_Integer)
        Table.Columns.Add("Name", SAPbouiCOM.BoFieldsType.ft_Integer)
        Table.Columns.Add("U_RPTC", SAPbouiCOM.BoFieldsType.ft_AlphaNumeric, 255)
        Table.Columns.Add("U_USRC", SAPbouiCOM.BoFieldsType.ft_AlphaNumeric, 255)
        Matrix = oForm.Items.Item("MatrixUID").Specific
        Column = Matrix.Columns.Item("Code")
        Column.DataBind.Bind("Documents", "Code")
        Column = Matrix.Columns.Item("Name")
        Column.DataBind.Bind("Documents", "Name")
        Column = Matrix.Columns.Item("U_RPTC")
        Column.DataBind.Bind("Documents", "U_RPTC")
        Column = Matrix.Columns.Item("U_USRC")
        Column.DataBind.Bind("Documents", "U_USRC")
        Table.ExecuteQuery(SQLQuery)
        Matrix.LoadFromDataSource() 'Load The Data to the Matrix
To pull the data form the display back to the Table you can use this
Matrix.FlushToDataSource()

Insert XML file into Relational database model - no XMLTYPE!

Dear all,
How can I store a known complex XML file into an existing relational database WITHOUT using xmltypes in the database ?
I read the article on DBMS_XMLSTORE. DBMS_XMLSTORE indeed partially bridges the gap between XML and RDBMS to a certain extent, namely for simply structured XML (canonical structure) and simple tables.
However, when the XML structure will become arbitrary and rapidly evolving, surely there must be a way to map XML to a relational model more flexibly.
We work in a java/Oracle10 environment that receives very large XML documents from an independent data management source. These files comply with an XML schema. That is all we know. Still, all these data must be inserted/updated daily in an existing relational model. Quite an assignment isn't it ?
The database does and will not contain XMLTYPES, only plain RDBMS tables.
Are you aware of a framework/product or tool to do what DBMS_XMLSTORE does but with any format of XML file ? If not, I am doomed.
Cheers.
Luc.

In case you decide to follow my advice, here's a simple example showing how to do this.. (Note the XMLTable syntax is the preferred approach in 10gr2 and later..

SQL>Out of interest why are you so against using XMLType...
Edited by: mdrake on Jan 13, 2009 8:25 AM

Insert XML file into Relational database model without using XMLTYPE tables

Dear all,
How can I store a known complex XML file into an existing relational database WITHOUT using xmltypes in the database ?
I read the article on DBMS_XMLSTORE. DBMS_XMLSTORE indeed partially bridges the gap between XML and RDBMS to a certain extent, namely for simply structured XML (canonical structure) and simple tables.
However, when the XML structure will become arbitrary and rapidly evolving, surely there must be a way to map XML to a relational model more flexibly.
We work in a java/Oracle10 environment that receives very large XML documents from an independent data management source. These files comply with an XML schema. That is all we know. Still, all these data must be inserted/updated daily in an existing relational model. Quite an assignment isn't it ?
The database does and will not contain XMLTYPES, only plain RDBMS tables.
Are you aware of a framework/product or tool to do what DBMS_XMLSTORE does but with any format of XML file ? If not, I am doomed.
Constraints : Input via XML files defined by third party
Storage : relational database model with hundreds of tables and thousands of existing queries that can not be touched. The model must not be altered.
Target : get this XML into the database on a daily basis via an automated process.
Cheers.
Luc.

Luc,
your Doomed !
If you would try something like DBMS_XMLSTORE, you probably would be into serious performance problems in your case, very fast, and it would be very difficult to manage.
If you would use a little bit of XMLType stuff, you would be able to shred the data into the relational model very fast and controlable. Take it from me, I am one of those old geezers like Mr. Tom Kyte way beyond 40 years (still joking). No seriously. I started out as a classical PL/SQL, Forms Guy that switched after two years to become a "DBA 1.0" and Mr Codd and Mr Date were for years my biggest hero's. I have the utmost respect for Mr. Tom Kyte for all his efforts for bringing the concepts manual into the development world. Just to name some off the names that influenced me. But you will have to work with UNSTRUCTURED data (as Mr Date would call it). 80% of the data out there exists off it. Stuff like XMLTABLE and XML VIEWs bridge the gap between that unstructured world and the relational world. It is very doable to drag and drop an XML file into the XMLDB database into a XMLtype table and or for instance via FTP. From that point on it is in the database. From there you could move into relational tables via XMLTABLE methods or XML Views.
You could see the described method as a filtering option so XML can be transformed into relational data. If you don't want any XML in your current database, then create an small Oracle database with XML DB installed (if doable 11.1.0.7 regarding the best performance --> all the new fast optimizer stuff etc). Use that database as a staging area that does all the XML shredding for you into relational components and ship the end result via database links and or materialized views or other probably known methodes into your relational database that isn't allowed to have XMLType.
This way you would keep your realtional Oracle database clean and have the Oracle XML DB staging database do all the filtering and shredding into relational components.
Throwing the XML DB option out off the window beforehand would be like replacing your Mercedes with a bicycle. With both you will be able to travel the distance from Paris to Rome, but it will take you a hell of lot longer.

How to retrieve am image from database

hi ,
i hav a requirement that, i hav to store and retrive an image from database(postgresql)and palce it on JLabel.i successfully stored an image into database .while retrieving an image from database im not getting the image .please any one can help me how to retrieve an image and place it in JLabel.
This the code for inserting an image:
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:port/database", "username", "pwd");
System.out.println("Connection established");
String INSERT_PICTURE = "insert into imagedata(imageid,data) values (?, ?)";
FileInputStream fis = null;
PreparedStatement ps = null;
try {
conn.setAutoCommit(false);
File file = new File("photo.jpg");
fis = new FileInputStream(file);
ps = conn.prepareStatement(INSERT_PICTURE);
ps.setInt(1, 2);
ps.setBinaryStream(2, fis, (int) file.length());
ps.executeUpdate();
conn.commit();
catch(Exception ex)
ex.printStackTrace();
finally {
ps.close();
fis.close();This is the code for retrieve an image :
Class.forName("org.postgresql.Driver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:postgresql://localhost:port/database", "username", "pwd");
byte[] imgbytes = null;
String INSERT_PICTURE = "select imageid,data from imagedata ";
Statement stmt=(Statement) conn.createStatement();
try {
ResultSet rs=stmt.executeQuery(INSERT_PICTURE);
while(rs.next())
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
InputStream file=rs.getBinaryStream(2);
System.out.println("FILE : "+file);
catch(SQLException a)
finally {
stmt.close();please anyone can help meee
thanks

You basically save a File to the database, so you can just re-write the data from the file back temporarily and load it into the application using the ImageIO class
// create necessary connection and statement objects
// retrieve image column
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT Image FROM dataTable");
rs.next();
Blob imageData = rs.getBlob("Image");
if( imageData != null ) {
    try {
        File tmpFile = new File("tmpImage");
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(tmpFile);
            fos.write( imageData.getBytes(1L, (int)imageData.length()) );
            fos.close();
        tmpFile.deleteOnExit();
        ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon( ImageIO.read(tmpFile) );
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, icon);
    } catch(IOException ioe) {
        ioe.printStackTrace();
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Failed To Load Image Data", "Load Error",
                JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
}ICE

Load XML data from UNIX Server Directly into Relational Database Tables

Is there a way I can load data from an XML File into Oracle Tables , without having the Input XML file in some Oracle Server Directory. My XML File resides on UNIX Application server. And I need to directly load the data into Database tables. Without loading them into the Database Directory.
Also I am looking for a solution that would not load my Database much and effect other running processes. Can it be done using SQL Loader ?
Oracle Database Version is : Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production

Thanks for your reply ,
Please would you quote an Example about : 'Load the file into that table using SQL*Loader' (From UNIX Server) Or instance of some existing thread that relates to my situation.
The Size of the File would be about 3 GB. For a similar requirement one of my peers Code which used XMLTABLE and XPATH Approach consumed a lot of resources while running and caused the other Database Applications to slow down. Thus those guys have come up with an approach to :
        Parse XML using a C Code using some STRING Functions => For a CSV or Fixed width .dat file and then use SQL Loader to just load the file into Tables.
        This approach is efficient in terms of Resources and Time(Takes 5 mins). But I am not confident about parsing XML based on String based C Functions.
         Please comment about this approach . Also if possible Suggest the best efficient way of doing this.

How to insert text into sqlite database from AutoCompleteTextField

Dear Friends,
I want to know that whether it is possible to store values into the database from AutoCompleteText field?????????if it is posssible please explain that how we can do that............Please Reply.......I am waiting for the reply......
With Love,
Nithin

You can use SSIS package for that
Start a new Integration Services project in Business Intelligence Development Studio/ SSDT. Add a new SSIS package with a data flow task. Add a OLEDB source to connect to Oracle server and add a OLEDB Destination to connect to your local database.
Select tables for source and destination. On executing package source data will get transferred to your local database.

How to insert data into custom database table from an hcsf

i want to insert data into database table that i have created from an hcsf.
example :
say i have created a table in oracle database and i hav created a hcsf file.now i want that when somebody fills in that hcsf and click submit ,i want that entries should be updated in my database table.
plzzz reply ASAP(it's urgent)

you'll need a bit of Java code... extract the data during a check-in filter, and insert it into the database.
check out the "DataAccess" component in the HowToComponents for query-running examples, and the "DynamicPrefix" component for a check-in filter example.
I have older copies here:

How to retrieve data using logical database and custom select options

Hi all,
I have a selection screen which is displayed by logical database PSJ and I have two select options of my own. I need to retrieve data based on both selection screen of logical database and my own select options. How can I do it?
Thanks in advance.

Hai Gupta
Check the following Document & Links
1. A logical database is in fact
a program only.
2. This LDB provides two main things :
a) a pre-defined selection screen
which handles all user inputs and validations
b) pre defined set of data
based upon the user selection.
3. So we dont have to worry about from
which tables to fetch data.
4. Moreover, this LDB Program,
handles all user-authorisations
and is efficient in all respects.
5. tcode is SLDB
good info about Logical Database. you can check the link.

Re: How to Create and Use ldb in reports?
Re: Logical databases
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/9f/db9bed35c111d1829f0000e829fbfe/frameset.htm
Functions for displaying and changing logical databases:
Call Transaction SE36 or
Choose ABAP Workbench -> Development -> Programming environ. -> Logical databases
Interaction between database program and report:
During program processing, subroutines are performed in the database program and events are executed in the report.
To read data from a database tables we use logical database.
A logical database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program.
advantages:-
The programmer need not worry about the primary key for each table.Because Logical database knows how the different tables relate to each other,and can issue the SELECT command with proper where clause to retrieve the data.
i)An easy-to-use standard user interface.
ii)check functions which check that user input is complete,correct,and plausible.
iii)meaningful data selection.
iv)central authorization checks for database accesses.
v)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view determined by the application logic.
disadvantages:-
i)If you donot specify a logical database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur.
ii)There is no ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next event
statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
1. transaction code SLDB.
2.enter name z<ldb-name>
3.create
4.short text
5.create
6. name of root node (here Ekko)
7. enter short text (f6)
8.node type -> data base table.
9.create
10 change logical DB
riht click on ekko and insert node
here node name ekpo
11.create
12. click on selections
13. press no Should the changed structure of Z<ldb name> be saved first.
14.select tables which you want to join.
15.transfer
16 now you have to o to coding part.
17. save
activate.
19.click to src code
double click on first include and activate

Hi, there,
I want to insert date information to oracle database in a jsp page using JSTL. but always got wrong message:
javax.servlet.jsp.JspException:
INSERT INTO DATE_TEST
(date_default,date_short,date_medium)
values(?,?,?)
: Invalid column type
I don't know how to convert java date type to oracle date type or vice versa. the following is the source code(all the fields of DATE_DEFAULT,DATE_SHORT,DATE_MEDIUM are oracle date type. and even I want to insert d instead d1, I got the same wrong message)

How to upload data into a database from a csv file in a jsp app?

I can write a HTML form to let users to post a csv file and store it in the web server, then how could I process the file to load the data into a View Obj or an Entity Obj without manually parsing the csv files? Any jsp or java code samples that will do something like the "sqlload" in sqlplus?

How to retrieve information from a database View name

For a given database View name, is there any way to retrieve what are the columns (also the corresponding table name) associated with that View?
I am getting the view names by using DatabaseMetaData APIs.
Now I want to retrieve the info associated with that view.
Any help will be highly appreciated.

If all else fails then since you have the view name then "select * from viewname where 1=0" should work.

How to insert data into local database from oracle server

I am new in C#.
I am trying to design a local database in my C# project and I am trying to sync my database with our oracle server. I can login using oracle server. But I can't insert data into my local database from oracle server.
anybody can help me ...............
thanks..............................

You can use SSIS package for that
Start a new Integration Services project in Business Intelligence Development Studio/ SSDT. Add a new SSIS package with a data flow task. Add a OLEDB source to connect to Oracle server and add a OLEDB Destination to connect to your local database.
Select tables for source and destination. On executing package source data will get transferred to your local database.

How to retrieve data from the Database after deleting rows from VO ?

Hello,
I am using Jdeveloper 11.1.2.1.0
I have a master and a child .
So according my use case when a value in the master vo changes the corresponding child has to be deleted.
but when i change back to any other value i want to undo the delete operation and get back the values in the child.
Is there any way to do it?
Regards,
Nigel.

Hi all,
I want to do a validation based on a SelectOneChoice List Value.
Based on which value in the select one choice is being selected, thedata from the VO should be DELETED or NOT-DELETED.
To do this I wrote a Managed Bean and the delete part is working fine if a particular value of the SelectOneChoice is selected.
Since the rows are deleted from the VO, after I change the SelectOneChoice value to the previous one I cannot retrieve the rows.
I thought of two ways:
1. As the Deleting option in the SelectOneChoice is selected the rows should be deleted from the VO and when reverted back to not-Deleting option the Rollback of Transaction method written in the Managed Bean should take place.
2. As the Deleting option is selected the data should be deleted from the VO and when reverted back to non-Deleting option, a query should be made from the Database.
The first plan was dropped because it is not VO-specific. If there are more than 1 VO in the page then whatever changes are made in the page will be reverted back as soon ad Rollback of transaction is done.
So the now i am left to go with the second plan.
Is there any way to implement the second plan?
If so...Will it compromise the performance of the application?
Or else, Is there any other way to implement my Use-Case ???
Regards,
Nigel.
