Import CSV in OWB 10 R2.

When I've try to import a file of three fields with 20 rows, the text of the last field of each row has the character '<CR><LF>'. Example:
FIELD1: 'HELLO'
FIELD2: 'GOOD'
FIELD3: 'ORACLE
The delimiter is 'CR' in my configuration of the flat file and the delimiter of field is ';'. What can I do?
Thanks...

You can type in your own delimiter in the field 'Records Delimited By'. Although there is a combo box, it is editable. So even if you had an EBCDIC file which had some hex code you could type the hex code (such as X'0D0A').

How do I import csv file into a SharePoint list?

I am trying to use a PowerShell script to load data into a SharePoint list from a csv file. When I run my code, it seems to go through the process of loading the data into the list. However when I go to my list, all I see is "System.Object[]" displayed
in the first column of all my rows with no other data displayed. When I check my csv file, I see a ton of data (several rows and columns) but that is not being moved to my SharePoint list. This is what my script looks like
if((Get-PSSnapin | Where {$_.Name -eq “Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell”}) -eq $null) {
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
$web = Get-SPWeb http://link to web
$list = $web.lists["List Name"]
$recordsNumber = 0
foreach($i in Import-CSV myCSVFile.csv)
$new = $list.Items.Add()
$new["Title"] = $i.Title,
$new["FirstName"] = $i.FirstName,
$new["LastName"] = $i.LastName
$new.Update()
$recordsNumber++
"Added " + $recordsNumber.ToString() + " records."
"Done. Press any key to continue..."
$null = $Host.UI.RawUI.ReadKey("NoEcho,IncludeKeyDown")
Any ideas on how to fix this, and get my list populated with data?

if ( (Get-PSSnapin -Name Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue) -eq $null )
Add-PsSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
$host.Runspace.ThreadOptions = "ReuseThread"
#Open SharePoint List

} else {

Excel issues with importing CSV or HTML table data from URL - Sharepoint? Office365?

Greetings,
We have a client who is having issues importing CSV or HTML table data as one would do using Excel's Web Query import from a reporting application. As the error message provided by Excel is unhelpful I'm reaching out to anyone who can help us begin to
troubleshoot problems affecting what is normal standard Excel functionality. I'd attach the error screenshot, but I can't because my account is not verified....needless to say it says "Microsoft Excel cannot access the file https://www.avantalytics.com/reporting_handler?func=wquery&format=csv&logid=XXXX&key=MD5
Where XXXX is a number and MD5 is an md5 code. The symptoms stated in the error message are:
- the file name or path does not exist
-The file is being used by another program
-The workbook you are trying to save has the same name as a currently open workbook.
None of these symptoms are the case, naturally. The user encountered this with Excel2010, she was then upgraded to Excel2013 and is still experiencing the same issue. The output of this URL in a browser (IE, Chrome, Firefox) is CSV data for the affected
user, so it is not a network connectivity issue. In our testing environment using both Excel2010 or 2013 this file is imported successfully, so we cannot replicate. The main difference I can determine between our test environment and the end-user
is they have a Sharepoint installation and appear to have Office365 as well.
So, my question might more appropriately be for Sharepoint or Office365 folks, but I can't be sure they're a culprit. Given this - does anyone have any knowledge of issues which might cause this with Sharepoint or Office365 integrated with
Excel and/or have suggestions for getting more information from Excel or Windows other than this error message? I've added the domain name as a trusted publisher in IE as I thought that might be the issue, but that hasn't solved anything. As you
can see its already https and there is no authentication or login - the md5 key is the authentication. The certificate for the application endpoint is valid and registered via GoDaddy CA.
I'm at a loss and would love some suggestions on things to check/try.
Thanks -Ross

Hi Ross,
>> In our testing environment using both Excel 2010 and 2013 this file is imported successfully, so we cannot replicate.
I suspect it is caused by the difference of web server security settings.
KB: Error message when you use Web query to a secure Web page (HTTPS://) in Excel: "Unable to open"
Hope it will help.
By the way, this forum is mainly for discussing questions about Office Development (VSTO, VBA and Apps for Office .etc.). For Office products feature specific questions, you could consider posting them on

Help importing csv for birthday email campaign

Hello,
I've used the downloaded data template and uploaded a list of customers. My list shows 153 customers. After I upload it, the name of the list has (84) after it, and when I hover over the name and hit "View Subscribers," it shows 94 items in the list, (at the bottom right of the list, as such: Displaying page 1 of 5, items 1 to 20 of 94).
When I import the csv, through the E-Mail Campaigns > Recipients window, I get a window with the following:
Have you downloaded and reviewed the import template file (above right) to ensure your import file is setup correctly? More than one column in your customer database is updated during this import.
I don't understand what the second sentence means. I've used the template and copied my records into it.
Comparing lists, it is skipping names, and I can't find anything triggering it. The records are complete.
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Looking for a Notes app that I can import CSV files into?

As the title says, I'm looking for a good notes application for my iPhone that I can import CSV files into. I have tried both Appigo and Notespark, but I can't easily scroll through them, as I have 2,000+ notes. Is there any app that I can import my notes into and also scroll through quickly? I'd like something that works similarly to how you scroll through songs on the iPhone/iTouch, with the column on the right where you can skip to songs (notes, in this case) that start with a certain letter.
Thanks!

Hi Tx Tar Heel,
I've been using Office2HD: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/office2-hd/id364361728?mt=8
Its cheaper than Numbers and it also works for Word and PowerPoint files too. I like the Dropbox integration. I can start on my Office docs (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) in the office and then edit those files with Office2HD when I'm out of the office. Files saves right back to Dropbox so that when I get back to the office the files are already updated. Not bad for a $7.99 app!
Hope this helps!

Using PowerShell to import CSV data from Vendor database to manipulate Active Directory Users

Hello,
I have a big project I am trying to automate. I am working in a K-12 public education IT Dept. and have been tasked with importing data that has been exported from a vendor database via .csv file into Active Directory to manage student accounts.
My client wants to use this data to make bulk changes to student user accounts in AD such as moving accounts from one OU to another, modifying account attributes based on State ID, lunchroom ID, School, Grade, etc. and adding new accounts / disabling
accounts for students no longer enrolled.
The .csv that is exported doesn't have headers that match up with what is needed for importing in AD, so those have to be modified in this process, or set as variables to get the correct info into the correct attributes in AD or else this whole project is
a bust. He is tired of manually manipulating the .csv data and trying to get it onto AD with few or no errors, hence the reason it has been passed off to me.
Since this information changes practically daily, I need a way to automate user management by accomplishing the following on a scheduled basis.
Process must:
Check to see if Student Number already exists
If yes, then modify account
Update {School Name}, {Site Code}, {School Number}, {Grade Level} (Variables)
Add correct group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Move account to correct OU (OU={Grade},OU=Students,OU=Users,OU={SiteCode},DC=Domain,DC=net)
Remove incorrect group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Set account status (enabled / disabled)
If no, create account
Import Student #
Import CNP #
Import Student name
Extract First and Middle initial
If duplicate name exists
Create log entry for review
Import School, School Number, Grade Level
Add to correct Group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Set correct OU (OU={Grade},OU=Students,OU=Users,OU={SiteCode},DC=Domain,DC=net)
Set account Status
I am not familiar with Powershell, but have researched enough to know that it will be the best option for this project. I have seen some partial solutions in VB, but I am more of an infrastructure person instead of scripting / software development.
I have just started creating a script and already have hit a snag. Maybe one of you could help.

How to import csv-file in Numbers 3.2.2.

I start using Numbers in stead of Excel. I would like to import csv-files from my bank, but when I open the csv-file in Numbers, everything is imported in the same cell. I composed a testfile: 01/08/2014,”text”,”more text”,”even more text” in Pages, exported to a textfile and changed the extension from .txt in .csv. It did not help, everything was in the same cell. What must be changed to become successful in importing csv-files? I am using Numbers 3.2.2. and an iMac with 2,8 GHz Intel Core i7 processor and 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 memory with OS X 10.9.4.
Thanks, Joan Voormolen

You can do this using Pages. Without using outside scripts or functions. The Pages Find/Replace function will let you change the delimiter on the data in your file.
Open the file in Pages. Click Show Invisibles. (this will show you the delimiter used in the file)
If you see a * as the delimiter, that is a space. Some data files are space delimited. This is a really poor way to delimit numerical data files.
If you see a fat arrow to the right, the file is Tab delimited
Obviously, a comma is not a hidden character. Some files are comma delimited
Whatever else might have been used as a delimiter (for example a semi colon is sometimes used) will be apparent.
The delimiter should be something that is not used anywhere else in the "data"... text, numbers, etc., you want to delimit. Numbers considers a comma as a valid delimiter for files with the suffix .csv . It considers a tab as a valid delimiter with files with the suffix .txt . It does not consider spaces a valid delimiter in with any file suffix. But some programs use odd delimiters (semi colon, colon, double spaces, etc) as delimiters.
Use the Find command, then Find/Replace as you need to create that delimiter numbers recognizes. Let's say a semi colon was used as a delimiter. Enter the current delimiter (semi colon) into the Find box. Pages should highlight all the instances of your entry. Enter a comma (to create comma delimited data file) in the Replace box. You should now see a comma as the delimiter.
Important Don't forget, any other comma used in the file will also be considered a delimiter. (a comma in 1,000 for example). So check the data. If you see a comma used another way you will want to eliminate that BEFORE you do the "comma as delimiter" replacement. If you have 1,000, do a find/replace with comma as the find, nothing as the replace, first. THEN do the replacement of the semi colon.
Now comes the "tricky" part from what I could see. You want to save this new file with a suffix of .csv. (Export the file) Numbers will only open a comma delimited file with separated data (by comma) if it's suffix is .csv. Pages only gives you limited export options and puts the file suffix on for you automatically. CSV is not one of the options!
Choose Text. Pages will name the file .txt. Quit Pages. Go to the file on your desktop (or wherever you saved it). Change the file suffiix from .txt to .csv.
That's it. Open the file with Numbers. Numbers will create a separate column for everything between the comma's.
You can use this same method to alter your data file before you import it into Numbers. For example, one file I wanted to import had time=xxx . I only wanted the actual time, not the text attached to it, in my spreadsheet. I did a find/replace with "time=" as the find. A comma as the replace. Even though "time=xxx" is one "word", Pages identified the "time=" within the word to allow the replacement.
Numbers does not provide a "choose delimiter" function when opening a file. Instead it automatically uses the standard delimiter based on the file suffix. CSV means Comma, so if the file is named .csv it will only look for and use a comma as the delimiter to put the data into separate columns. I believe .txt uses only a tab as the delimiter. In the above example you could find/replace to a Tab. Then Export to Text. And numbers will open the data into columns the way you want, without the extra step of renaming the file on your desktop.
While some files use a second space (ie two in a row) as a delimiter that's a nasty way to delimit. You always want a specific delimiter that is not used within the data element.
The above is to import numerical data into separate columns. You could use the same method to manipulate a file that contains text. Let's say you had a file with the suffix .txt. In the file are names and addresses. John Smith 246 Rose Road . You want Name in one column. Address in another. Look at all the spaces, which ones should be delimiters which not? Are there any delimiters in the file?
If you open with Pages and choose show invisibles you can see. You might see John Smith --> 246 Rose Road. (the --> will look like a fat arrow in Pages). Numbers will open this file, IF it has .txt as the suffix, based on the Tab, with name in one column, Address in another.
Or you might see John*Smith**246*Rose*Road. Even though the creator of this intended two spaces to be a delimiter Numbers does not recognize that. Numbers will put everything into one column. The fix? In Pages, put a tab between name and address. Find/replace two spaces with Tab. Export, as Text.
Based on what you see (with show invisible active) in Pages, you can use the Find/Replace function to create the specific delimiter you want (tab or comma). You can use that function to manipulate the file easily so the data you want shows up in separate columns. You may need to get clever to accomplish the unique delimiters. You might even need to do two passes with Find/Replace.
In the instance above if there was only one space between each element. (not two as a pseudo delimiter) You could replace all spaces with a tab in Pages. Export as Text. Numbers will open that file with a column for each word (one for John, one for Smith). Then "Merge" the two cells (columns) you want to put back together.

Import-csv how to make powershell ignore a line in a csv file if a column contains a certain value

Basically I got a very basic script that uses a csv file to input values needed to remove people from a distro list. That part is working fine. I'd like to add to it's functionality so it can look at values in a certain column, and if any of those certain
values are present, I want powershell to skip that line and not process it. For instance I have a column in the csv called Group. If I have a listing under Group that says ABC I want the script to skip that line and not try to process it. What could I insert
into the script to acheive this?

You're welcome. You can add to the if test with -and:
Import-Csv .\groups.csv | ForEach {
If ($_.Group -ne 'ABC' -and $_.Group -ne 'DEF') {
Write-Output "Group is $($_.Group)"
Write-Output "Name is $($_.Name)"
Output:
Group is GHI
Name is Show Me
groups.csv:
Group,Name
ABC,Skip Me
DEF,Skip Me Too
GHI, Show Me

How to gracefully import CSV files into Numbers.app v3?

I've posted this as a question at Stack Exchange, also…
I have a process, which has worked faithfully for years in Numbers '09, whereby I download my Bank account data in CSV format, then drag that data directly into my Numbers sheet (after creating an appropriate number of blank rows).
This no longer works, and I can't find an option to import csv! A help search within numbers for 'csv' returns a single result which describes exporting.
I've tried the old method, no dice. Also, the menu option: Insert > Choose… doesn't permit .csv to be selected.
At the moment, my workaround is:
drag the CSV onto the Numbers dock or task-switcher icon to create a temp sheet
select and copy the content
paste-and-match-format into my desired location
close don't save the temp file
Doe anyone know a better way? A hack or hidden flag I can toggle to get the old functionality back?

Hi David,
Your CSV file seems to be a hybrid (mongrel). Where did it originate?
Regions that use a full-stop (.) as as the decimal point use comma (,) as the separator in CSV files. But wait, there is more! CSV can also mean Character Separated Values, and that character could be semi-colon (;) or Tab.
Are you able to open that file in TextEdit or Pages or Word and replace the separator? Replacing ; with Tab may work.
I must admit that I have never had trouble with CSV opening in Numbers with a double-click in Finder. For example, my bank statements download with what works in my Region (strings enclosed with "double quotes" and columns separated by commas and numbers with a full-stop as the decimal point. Maybe I am just lucky. .
Regards,
Ian.

Powershell: How to change the header name in a imported CSV file

HI All,
I have a csv file in which I want to change the headers names in powershell.
oldnames are name,id
newnames I want to give are: company and transit respectively.
Following is what I wrote in script:
           $a = import-csv .\finalexam\employees.csv -header name,id'
                   foreach ($a in $as[1-$as.count-1]) // I used 1 here because I want it to ignore the exiting headers.
                  { $_.name -eq company, $_.id -eq transit}
I think this not entirely correct way to do this. Can someone show me how to fix this.
Regards

If you're not an experienced PowerShell programmer, I recommend editing the file in a text editor and changing the name that way.

Import-CSV and Takeown.

I'm currently trying to come up with a way to search an entire folder directory to find all objects that a particular user is owner to, export that list to csv, then import that csv and using takeown to grant local Administrators Owner.
Scouring the internet, I've been able to come up with this Powershell script to scan a directory and export the findings to a csv.
param(
[string]$username = "NameofUserSearchingFor",
[string]$logfile
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
if ($logfile -eq "") {
$logfile = "c:\" + $username + "-Owner.csv"
Write-Host "Setting log file to $logfile"
#Path to search in
[String]$path = "c:\TestFolder"
[String]$AD_username = "Domain\" + $username
#check that we have a valid AD user
if (!(Get-ADUser $AD_username)){
Write-Host "ERROR: Not a valid AD User: $AD_username"
Exit 0
Write-Output "$username" | Out-File -FilePath $logfile
$files = Get-ChildItem $path -Recurse
ForEach ($file in $files)
$f = Get-Acl $file.FullName
if ($f.Owner -eq $AD_username)
Write-Output $file.FullName | Out-File -FilePath $logfile -Append
exit 0
That script exports data in the form of:
NameofUserSearchingFor
C:\TestFolder\TestFolder1
C:\TestFolder\TestFolder2
C:\TestFolder\TestFolder1\test1.txt
C:\TestFolder\TestFolder2\test2.txt
I'd like to use takeown to read each line of text and take ownership for local Administrators.
The script i'm trying to use doesn't do anything though.
#Local Admininstrator Take Ownership
$rows = Import-Csv "c:\NameofUserSearchingFor-Owner.csv"
ForEach ($row in $rows)
takeown /A /F $row
Perhaps I'm going about this all wrong. I'm relatively new to Powershell and have been trying to come up with a way to do this for the past 3 days.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
*Update*
If I reconfigure the takeown portion a bit to this:
#Local Admininstrator Take Ownership
$Path = "c:\NameofUserSearchingFor-Owner.csv"
$rows = Import-Csv $Path
ForEach ($line in $rows)
takeown /A /F $Path
The result is:
SUCCESS: The file (or folder): "c:\NameofUserSearchingFor-Owner.csv" now owned by the administrators group.
But will repeat as many times as there are lines of text in the csv. So if there are 4 lines of text in the csv, that line will repeat 4 times. I find it interesting that it knows how many lines there are but instead of granting local Administrator
the owner to the path specified in the line it will instead grant local Administrator to the csv file.

That is because you are takingownership of the CSV.
ForEach ($line
in$rows){
takeown /A
/F $Path
should be:
ForEach ($line
in$rows){
takeown /A
/F $line
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Importing CSV file and parsing it

First of all I am very new to writing powershell code. Therefore, my question could be very rudimentary, but I cannot find an answer, so please help.
I'm trying to read a CSV file and parse it. I cannot figure out how to access nth element without hardcoding its name.
$data = Import-Csv $file #import CSV file
# read column headers (manually read the first row of the data file, or import it from other source, or ...)
$file_dump = Get-Content $file #OK, I'm sure there is another way to get just the first line, but that's not relevant
$name_list = $file_dump[0].split(",")
# access element
$temp = $data[$i].Name # works - but that's HARDCODING the column name into the script - what if someone changes it?
#but what I want to do is
$temp = $data[$i].$name_list[0]
How do I do this in PowerShell?

So you're asking how to get the first data point from the first column, no matter what the header is?
Why won't you know what your input file looks like?
You can always drop the first line of the file to remove the existing headers and then use the -Header parameter of Import-Csv to give yourself known headers to reference (this will only work if you know how many columns to expect, etc etc etc).

Mav Contacts does not import csv file

Trying to import my Outlook exchange contacts to Mavericks Contacts. Exported from outlook to excel. Saved excel file to csv format. Tried to import csv file to Mavericks Contacts: Error message says the csv file is not compatible. Also imported the csv file to Numbers and saved again as another csv file. Same error message. Suggestions?

The following was copied from the Contacts Help.
Import contact information saved or exported from other apps. The files can be in LDAP Interchange Format (LDIF) or text format (tab-delimited or comma-separated value (CSV)).
If you’re importing a tab-delimited or CSV file, make sure it’s formatted correctly using a text editor such as TextEdit.
Remove any line breaks within a contact’s information.
Make sure that fields in a tab-delimited file are separated by a tab, instead of by another character. Don’t include spaces before or after tabs.
Make sure that fields in a CSV file are separated by a comma, instead of by another character. Don’t include spaces before or after commas.
Make sure all addresses have the same number of fields. Add empty fields as needed.
In Contacts, choose File > Import, select the file, change the encoding if necessary, then click Open.
If you’re importing a text file, review the field labels.
If the first card contains headers, make sure the headers are correctly labeled or marked “Do not import.” Any changes you make to this card are made to all cards in the file. To not import the headers card, select “Ignore first card.”
To change a label, click the arrows next to the label and choose a new label. If you don’t want to import a field, choose “Do not import.”
