How to spool the result of an query into a file in sql 2000

Hi All,
I have an SQL query which iterates through number of times for checking on some conditions and will return results each time. I wants to save the results into an different xml file each time. I tried using below query:
exec xp_cmdshell 'bcp "use Mimsadaptorlogs; select top 10 * from log order by logdate" queryout "D:\cdr_cg.xml" -T -c -t,'  ---> Its not working as expected.
I got the Below output:
NULL
Starting copy...
SQLState = 01000, NativeError = 5701
Warning = [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed database context to 'MIMSAdaptorlogs'.
NULL
10 rows copied.
Network packet size (bytes): 4096
Clock Time (ms.): total       62
NULL
Could you anuone please suggest me on this.......
Thanks and Regards, Bala

You will need to write a client program to do this. SQL Server is not intended for writing files. People still do it by calling BCP through xp_cmdshell, but this is a dubious practice. Better is to write a CLR stored procedure for the task. However, you
are on SQL 2000, and the CLR support was added in SQL 2005. Furthermore, there is no XML type in SQL 2000, and the only way to generate XML is with the FOR XML clause. But this output is not well understood by BCP. Then I try: [code} bcp "SELECT * FROM Northwind..Customers
FOR XML RAW" queryout slask.bcp -c -T [/code] on SQL 2000, I get [code] 11 rows copied. [/code] which is complete hogwash, because there are 91 rows in that table, and the output should be a single XML document, and the output looks like this: [code] <row
CustomerID="ALFKI"... Bouchers" City="Marseil... tomerID="DUMON" Company... 0.32.21.21" Fax="40.32.... los Hern ndez" ContactT... n Steel" ContactTitle="... e" ContactTitle="Market... ="Salzburg" PostalCode=... " Phone="(21) 555-3412"... ty="Charleroi" PostalCo...
<row CustomerID="WARTH"... [/code] I have truncated the output on the right side, but the left side is authentic. It really is that bad.

  • Extracting the result of a query into a internal table

    Hi,
    Does anyone knows or have an idea how to extract the result of a query into a internal table, is there a function module or BAPI?
    Thanks in advance,
    CK

    So then normally I would use a statment like:
    IFunctionTemplate ftemplate = repository.getFunctionTemplate("<b>BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST</b>");
    to call a particluar function, but I tried using
    IFunctionTemplate ftemplate = repository.getFunctionTemplate("<b>BAPI_MDDATAPROVIDERBW_GETCATALOGS</b>");
    and it did not seem to work. I also tried -
    IFunctionTemplate ftemplate = repository.getFunctionTemplate("<b>MDDataProviderBW.GetCatalogs</b>");
    How do I format the function?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Could you please provide some more information.
    if you have characteristics iobject whose values are (A, B etc) and calendar month in rows and then at column level you have key figures then if you have turn on the "Display Result Rows" property of both iobject in Bex  as "Always" you can get the result. At the same time you can set "Display Overall result" property of the Query to get overall result.

  • [JCOP Shell] how to get the result of a script into a variable ?

    Hello all,
    I have a jcsh script that swaps the Two nibbles of an hexadecimal number.
    #swap.jcsh
    X= 0xAB
    R= $(/expr $(/expr ${X} << 4 ) + $(/expr ${X} >> 4 )  )
    /echo 0x${R;h2} the value echoed is 0xBA, right.
    now, I want to replace the X varibale by an argument variable ( ${1} ) and , instead of echoing the result, storing it into another varibale; example :
    Y= swap 0x23this is not working. ;-(
    Does anyone knows how to do it ? is there a "return" equivalent to put at the end of my "swap" script ?
    mkdata are you there ? :)
    Kartagos

    Thank you very much mkdata
    I solve it temporarely by using a global Variable TEMP that will be used by scripts to store the result, then the caller script will simply read the value of this variable (old old school global variable method :) )
    now I'm considering re-writing my libraries
    I knew that there something "DEFUN" but i didn't find any help (when typing "help /error" it talks about something called "defun")
    I think I should write to the JCOP Team to update their docs.

  • How to capture the output of another program into a File/String

    I needed to capture the output of a dos program in an String/file I tried doing Runtime.getRuntime.exec("ipconfig /all >tmp.txt");
    but still I am unable to capture the output frm the program which I would like to capture in a file or String.Can anyone help

    When you use the Runtime.exec() method, it returns a Process object, that process object has access to the streams; stdout, stdin, and stderr of the application you just executed. what you'll want to monitor is the stdout or stderr streams using the
    p.getInputStream() or p.getErrorStream(), where p = the process object returned via the Runtime.exe() method.

  • How to execute a procedure depending on the result of a query?

    Hello, I'm new in ODI.
    I want to execute a procedure depending on the result of a query Oracle table.
    We have a Oracle Table whit a column that contains two possibles values.
    I want read the table, row by row, and depending on this value, execute a Procedure or execute another.
    How can i do?

    what you need to do is
    1. create a variable which "new_var2" which has the count of the number of rows you want to process. must be data type numeric.
    2. copy "new_var2" to the package screen.
    3. duplicate the "new_var2" on the package screen and evaluate the variable and test for "> 0" zero, call it "new_var2_E"
    3. create a new odi variable "new_var1" with a refresh of "select field1 fom (select field1,rownum as rownumber from tablex) where rownumber = #new_var2" in the relevant schema and technology.
    4. copy "new_var1" into your package (some where in the flow)
    5. right click the "new_var1" variable in you package screen and you should get the option duplicate step (click on that)
    6. select the the duplicate "new_var1" on the package screen and correct the the name to something meaning full to you "new_var1_E", also change the "type" to "evaluate variable" then you should see a "value" box. enter one of the values you want to test in the box (remember do not put in quotes ' )
    7. now back on the package screen join the "new_var1" to the "new_var1_E" with an OK line
    8 you now join "new_var2" to "new_var2_E" with OK
    9 you join "new_var2_E" to "new_var1"
    10. you then join the "new_var1_E" with an OK or a KO line to the relevant procedure.
    12. you need to duplicate "new_var2" in the package screen one more time this time and call it "new_var2_D" set the type to evaluate and then select the increment of -1
    13. the relevant procedure to "new_var2_D" with an OK
    14. join the "new_var2_D" to the "new_var2_E" with an OK
    15. this should close off the loop now the exit point is "new_var2_E" with a KO line to the next part of your process....
    Basically you should end up with a loop on new_var2 decementing, and it is used to get a specific next record row from your table.
    Hope this helps, sorry it is a little long winded..

  • How to achieve the results by Query ??

    Hello Guys,
    I have couple tables which I need to join to get the result....This is what is in the tables...
    CList Table
    CID, Name
    A, ABC
    B,CDE
    C,JFK
    JList Table
    JID, Name
    1, Something
    2, Another
    3, Else
    4, Should be something
    JOb_2_Courses
    JobID, CourseID
    1,A
    1,B
    2,C
    Employee Table
    EID, Job_ID
    1A, 1
    2A,1
    3B,1
    2C,2
    23D,3
    CStatus Table
    StatusID, Desc
    1,Completed
    2,Pending Approval
    3,Declined
    4,Scheduled
    5,Register
    Now user can only register the course which are related with their job....NO course else.....
    When they register it is moved to temp_course_registration and then once completed to COURSE_HISTORY
    For Example : So Employee : 1A will see two courses to register A and B...
    Say he registers A....it makes an entry in temp_course_registration table with the course id, employeeid and date....
    With further steps once that status is updated to '1'.....the course is deleted from temp_course_registration and is moved to course_history........
    Now to show to the user...I need to include all my tables in the query and on the basis of status, show necessary things to the user....
    Output :
    Course_ID, Status.............
    Say if they completed the course will come from course_history, if in the process will come from temp_course_registration.....if nothing is in the tables for the specific employee...this means status is '5' and they need to register everything...
    Can someone let me know, how to achieve the results....
    Thanks,

    Hi!
    The result of this query will be the max ID of users' IDs.
    Let say we have:
    String sql="select max(users.id) from users";
    Statement st = ctx.conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet rs = st.executeQuery(sql);
    rs.next();     
    So you can get the max Id in the following way:     
    int maxId=rs.getInt("id");
