How to use Space as field Separator?

I have a flat file with space (multiple spaces between different fields) as a delimiter. Whenever I try to upload the file it doesn't allow me to perform. In the external tab when i chose CSV file and do not give any value in the file separator, it just pops up an information box '00H not allowed as a separator' and when I try to use ASCII /hex value '0040' still get the same message. The problem is, file is coming from 3rd party and they don't want to change the separator as comma or tab delimited CSV file.
1) Is there any program which I can use in TR to convert space as coma or tab delimited and then feed the value to different fields? OR
2) How to read the one line as one field and then feed to multiple fields?
3) Any other solution/idea?
please help me out.
Thanks,

Hi Mau,
     Goto you Flatfile Datasource -> Extraction Tab -> Data Format (CSV) -> Data Seperator -> ' ' ( ie. space ).
     It will consider the space as the seperator.
     Hope it helps you.
     Assign points if it helps you.

  • HR-How to use dynamic selection fields in prog ..?

    Hii
         I have written a prog to select data pertaining to details of all employees who belong to a particular country . For this i have provided a dynamic selection field for selecting country (through Selection View).But when i am getting all the records for all countries.
                    How to use the dynamic selection fields in program or they behave in the same way as the standard selection given by the LDB .As if we enter a value in the std screen then the GET event acts accordingly .
    Ajitabh Pradhan

    Hi Ajitabh,
    First off, is the Dynamic Selection working? If so, try the following code.. I am assuming, you only want to look at Permanent Address.
    tables: pernr.
    infotypes: 0001,0006.
    start-of-selection.
    get pernr.
      rp-provide-from-last p0001 space pn-begda pn-endda.
      check pnp-sw-found eq 1.
      rp-provide-from-last p0006 1 pn-begda pn-endda.
      check pnp-sw-found eq 1.
      write:/ pernr-pernr,p0001-ename,p0006-land1.

  • How to use a parameter field value as a substring in a "like" statement?

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to use a parameter field in a Record selection formula where the parameter field value would be a substring of the data stored in the field.
    My parameter field (SlctResearcher) is constructed as follows:
    Type: string
    List of Values: static
    Value Field: (Reports) RptAuthors
    (in Value Options) Allow custom values?: True
    {Reports.PubDate} in DateTime (2009, 04, 01, 00, 00, 00) to DateTime (2010, 03, 31, 23, 59, 59) and
    {Reports.RptAuthors} like "*{?SlctResearcher}*"
    When I hit F5 to generate the data, I get no results (and the parameter prompt field does not even come up...)
    If I modify the formula to put a hard-coded string, like
    "*Jones*"
    after the 'like', I get results (all the reports where "Jones" is a substring in the RptAuthors string.) If I modify the formula to just use the parameter field without the quotes/stars like:
    {Reports.PubDate} in DateTime (2009, 04, 01, 00, 00, 00) to DateTime (2010, 03, 31, 23, 59, 59) and
    {Reports.RptAuthors} like {?SlctResearcher}
    I do get the parameter prompt field, but still no results even if I put in a valid substring value (since it is not searching for a substring anymore...)
    How can I do this?
    Thanks,
    Will

    1st thing... Make a copy of your report before doing anything!!!
    To use a SQL Command, you'll want to open the Database Expert and look at the Current Connections. Expand the data source and the 1st option you see is the Add Command option.
    To find the SQL That CR is currently using, choose Database from the menu bar and select Show SQL Query...
    You can copy this and paste it directly into the command window. (If you you can write your own SQL you don't need copy CR's, it's just an option.)
    You'll also want to take not of any parameters that you have, you'll need to add them the the Parameter List of the command as well... be sure to spell them EXACTLY as they are in the design pane.
    Anyway, once the SQL statement is in the Command window you'll be able to alter the WHERE clause to use the wild cards.
    For future reference... What type of database are you reporting against???

  • How to use the "Flash Field"?

    Hi Everyone,
    I'm trying to figure out how to use the new "Flash Field" inside my form.
    The form we are working on required the user to interact with the "Flash Field" (i.e., click on the bar on a bar-chart) and the "Flash Field" should return some value (defined in the Flash logic) should be returned to the host (the PDF form) as the FlashField.rawValue, for example.
    BTW: The SWF object that is consumed by the "Flash Field" is built by the Flash Builder latest edition (4.5). So we do have a total control on the logic inside the SWF project.
    The Q here is: What is the possibility to modify my code inside my Flash project so it can expose the SWF object computed value to the rawValue property of the Flash Field?
    Appreciating your collaboration....

    Hi,
    Have a look at the Flash object Reference Card and the Flash object examples here: http://assure.ly/rqCuEn.

  • How to use a screen-field when applying BADI or User Exit to a T Code

    Hi Experts,
    I need your help on this problem.
    I have created a BADI for the transaction code miro. I have got the Exit name on which the enhancement has to be done. I want to perform a check on a text field (Scrren field name INVFO-SGTXT).
    When my break point occurs i enter INVFO-SGTXT in the field to check the value present in it. But it shows that no such field exists.
    My Basic doubt is how to use a value entered in a text field in a tcode while performing a User Exit or BADI on it.
    Do I have to declare it. If yes please mention how?
    Thanks in advance guys.

    Hi,
    The first question here would be... do you plan on having multiple implementations down the road because if not there really isn't any reason to create a BADI inside the exit.  If that is the case then add the field as an importing parameter in your BADI interface and then you should be able to see it inside the BADI at your break-point.

  • How to use Bar code field in Item master

    Hi Experts
    I want to know that How to integrate Bar code scanner data with SBO. Bar code contain many information like price, serial no., description etc . For example I want that when I read a barcode by barcode scanner it automatically update itemcode, description , price and serial no.
    Thanks
    regards
    Gorge

    Hello Gorge,
    A barcode would ideally contain only an identification code and not other information. All such information like price, etc. should be fetched from a database, after reading the barcode, and identifying the item.
    You can simply enter the barcode in the Item Master Data and than use the barcode field to identify the item in sales / purchase documents instead of itemcode or itemname.

  • How to use one forms fields, program units in another form.

    The whole proceessing and update is happening in one main form.
    Main form has all the fields and a reprocess button which re-creates records if they have error. Record name is the primary key.
    I have another small form, which just shows the list of record names in the system. I want a reprocess button next to each record name so that user will be able to just select any record name and press reprocess button to recreate any record data.
    There are a lot of fields in main form and program units , which are used by the reprocess button.
    Any suggestions like how to go for it?

    You can either pass all the relevant data from the Small Form to the Larger form and make it reprocess the data or you can move the Program Units to a PL/SQL Library (.pll) and attach the library to your smaller form where you can call the program units. Either option requires changes to the Larger form to enable it to process a record passed to the form as a parameter or to externalize the Forms Program Units to a library.
    Personaly, I would recommend you move the Program Units to a Library. This would enable you to use the processes in any form (that has the library attached).
    Hope this helps,

  • How to use an available field more than once  to define an unique field?

    At the table level in the console you can indicate various combinations of fields that must be unique either individually or in combination. However, you can assign an available field only once,  individually or in combination. For our data model it is a functional requirement that any available field can be used in more than one combination to define an unique combination.
    Example separate unique combinations:
    •       combination of:  postal code + house number
    •       combination of:  city + street + house number
    We use "house number" twice.
    Is it possible to do this in MDM and how?
    Thanks in advance for your answer,
    Heleen

    Hi Heleen,
      If you want to use Source field twice then you an option called <b>Clone Field</b> in MDM Import Manager.
    Follow these steps:
    Step1. In Import manager select the source table.
    Step2. Right click on the required field and Select <i>Clone Field</i>  house number in your case.
    Please revert if any queries.

  • How to use 2 date field as delta control in generic extractor.

    Hi colleagues:
    I have developed a generic extractor to extract logistic data: Purchase Orders and Invoice. In order to do that, I have defined a view joining EKBE, EKKO, EKPO, EKET tables on R/3. By this approach, the delta mechanism is supposed to be controlled by the EKBE-BUDAT field and also by the EKPO-AEDAT field. Both fields are available on the view used to create the Datasource. However, the Datasource creation allows us to define just one field as delta control.
    I have a few questions regarding to this scenario:
    <b>1 - Is it possible to define 2 fields as delta control field on Generic Datasource?</b>
    <b>2 - How about creating two similar Datasouces, one having AEDAT as delta control, the other having BUDAT as delta control, and then connect those Datasources to an unique Infosource on the bw side?</b>
    Best regards
    Waldemar

    hi,
    1 - as far as I know it is not possible to define 2 fields
    2 - this workaround is used often in cases like yours.
    Just remember about order of extracting: first you extract new documents then changed

  • How to use customer-specific fields with FI-CA event 940?

    The following text can be found under FI-CA event 940:
    You can also set customer-specific fields if you have defined the predefined include for customer enhancements CI_FKK_ACCIT_CUS in the structure FKK_ACCIT_CUS. The fields included here must have the same field name as the fields included in the structure ACCIT. These can also originate from an enhancement of the coding block in General Ledger Accounting. The fields Reservation Class and Reservation Key of the reconciliation key and the totals record are available as import parameters.
    My requirement is to populate the field HZUON in this event, which will be called when running t-code FPG1 (Transfer of FI-CA total records to general ledger)
    The problem is the fact that the output of the event (i.e. output of function module FKK_SAMPLE_0940 at first) only have the following fields:
    E_ZUONR     LIKE     ACCIT-ZUONR     Zuordnung (BSEG-ZUONR)
    E_XREF2     LIKE     ACCIT-XREF2     Referenz  (BSEG-XREF2)
    E_SGTXT     LIKE     ACCIT-SGTXT     Positionstext
    E_BUPLA     LIKE     ACCIT-BUPLA     Businnes Place (Korea only)
    I tried adding a new field to structure CI_FKK_ACCIT_CUS and adding this field to the output of the event 940, but how do I ensure that the content of the field will be used to populate the HZUON field of the FI document during "transfer of FI-CA total records to general ledger"?
    Cheers,
    Teo

    Hi Teo,
    I happened to see this post from you when I searched for a similar scenario related to event 940. I also need to add two fields in CI_FKK_ACCIT_CUS and make these fields as outputof the event. Did you come across any solution for the same? If so, can you please share.

    %There are similarities syntactically they have a great deal in common. C# does things to try to be helpful that I find onerous and distasteful.

This is a given that we accept as cannon. C# however wraps the call to the accessors and mutators and takes care of that little detail so the code

  • Using Spaces for task separation?

    I was hunting around on the internet to try to find a way to have tasks separated in spaces rather than applications. I came across an article that said with the new 10.5.5 update this should be possible. The article said I just had to uncheck the box for the "When switching to an application..." feature and possibly "restart my doc". I unchecked the box but I have no idea what restarting a doc entails (although I did restart the computer just in case that would solve it), and whenever I drag say one safari window into a different space, all the others follow. So, my first question is: in 10.5.5 is it possible to have an application running in two spaces at once? If so, how do I tell the computer it should let me do this?
    Secondly, I have a monitor hooked into my mac book and the computer seems to resize windows on the secondary monitor randomly (or so it would seem). So, one minute I'll be looking at a document on the attached monitor and then writing and/or searching the internet or checking my mail for a bit on the laptop screen and then when I glance at the document on the other monitor it will often be a different size than it was a moment before, forcing me to resize it over and over in order to read between bouts of writing which (needless to say) gets slightly frustrating. Anyone know of a reason why this is happening or have any clue how to make it stop?
    Hope this question is posted in the right spot! If not let me know and I'll move it
    Thanks a ton in advance!

    I never had any problems with Word 2004, but Office 2008 has been nothing but a disaster. I usually have Word open in one space, and Powerpoint in another (taking notes on slides for class) But Office will always give me problems with shooting windows into different spaces, or automatically sending me to different spaces. A lot of times the Toolbox completely disappears, and the only way to bring it back is to restart it. It is EXTREMELY frustrating. I have been able to have a Word document open in one space, and another Word document open in another. Sometimes it gathers them all together, sometimes it doesn't. It is way sketchy.

  • Questions/comments on "How to Use BC4J HTML Field Renderers"

    BTW thanks for getting this HOWTO on custom renderers up. Good stuff. Probably one of the first things someone should read after getting past the first BC4J-JSP tutorial.
    But after having just read it, I have some questions and comments.
    What would be the best way to localize the YES|NO values from the first example? I know I can create property files for resource bundles and get the values from there, but where do I get the users Locale? And given that BC4J has a place for localized field labels, is there some better place (for JDev/BC4J integration) than going off and creating my own property files?
    I was hoping to see examples of actually writing the HTML so I can add properties for validation, etc. The examples were about custom data for the renders rather than custom HTML. I assume that I just output HTML in the renderToString() method and it would just start with "<select" or "<input" not TDs or spans or anything, right? But in such cases, what can I extend / not extend? In the case of lists, I would have to handle all the different control types, right?
    I am confused on control types. There's a control type on the control hints tab and in the HOWTO creates a new propery called MY_CONTROL_TYPE. Why? How do they relate? (and is that question about the RADIOGROUP suppose to be in the HOWTO doc?)
    Can we not get the list control types as options on control hints tab? Or if we are creating our own renders, say for a boolean, I could create different renderers for the different control types (checkbox, select, radio, maybe selectYesNo, selectTrueFalse,...) or create one with a control type setting for them all. Which should I do when? And is there a way to expose these control types in the control hints tab?
    BTW do these custom renders work the same in UIX-JSP and UIX-XML?
    Since we are extending Oracle's classes we need more complete JavaDocs, not just the public methods. For example the HOWTO uses "ds" from PickList. BTW I have to give my opinion on Java style, maybe consider coding like "this.ds" for clarity. But anyway....
    thanks for all the help!

    Some comments:
    1. the provided renderers read the properties every time becuase they are meant to be 'generic' and there are possible parameter differences between one attribute and another. You can easily hard-code the property values into the renderer implementation and 'never' look at the properties for parameters. The same applies for the dynamic renderer.
    2. The set of renderers applis to both UIX JSP and JSP. There some bugs in the UIX JSP that prevent this in 9.0.2, but they will be fixed in Jdev 9.0.3.
    3. The 'control type' is a shortcut way to select some of the default renderers. If you specify the 'Renderer' properties, they take precedence over any control types selected at design-time.
    4. A cool way to re-use renderers is to create a new domain class and setup the renderer properties at that level. You can then use tihs domain type in your entity objects. all the rendering selection will happen automatically.
    5. You can retrieve the current locale by using the ApplicationModule.getSession().getLocale() , make sure you use this method instead of the default locale since a single web application may be used by different users with different locale settings. We take the http locale information and map it into the application module's locale. If you need locale specific values, use resource bundles.
