Import data from MS ACCESS in background mode

Hello experts,
i am facing the following problem. I´ve got to import a MS ACCESS database in background mode via job.
I got a solution which works in dialoge:
create object conn 'ADODB.Connection'.
create object rsdb 'ADODB.Recordset'.
concatenate 'Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;'
'Data Source=C:UserspfahlbeDesktopaccess.mdb'
into sql.
call method of conn 'Open'
exporting
#1 = sql.
Any idea how it can be handled in background?

The system does not have permission to the useru2019s desktop C:\Users\pfahlbe\Desktop\access.mdb when running in the background.
Recommend moving your MSAccess db to a network location where the system has full-time read-permission, and adjusting your sql accordingly.

Trying to Import data from Microsoft Access in POWERPIVOT

Hello,
I am trying to import data from Microsoft Access into Powerpivot. In my Access database I have several query's.
When I go to the Table Import Wizard in powerpivot, I only see one source table. Why can't I see the other query's?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Soraya

Hello Soraya,
Which Version of MS Excel / Power Pivot are you using? Do you try to Import from a MDB or from the new Format ACCDB? Are these common queries in MS Access or pass-through queries?
In common it should work, if I Import from a MDB I can see & select both, tables & views (queries):

Importing data from MS-Access into Oracle 9i

I want to import data from access into oracle 9i. I already contain the same data in Oracle but these Access files contain updates and additional data to the existing data . So i need help to import in such a way that origional data remain same just addional data and updates come from MS-Access.

Hi,
You can achieve this by using the SQL Loader, which will help you out to load the data.
For further reference check the below link
http://lbd.epfl.ch/f/teaching/courses/oracle8i/server.815/a67792/ch05.htm#1261
As you said that you have existing data in the table and you have Update's too. you have the Options like
APPEND which you will useful to add the new records.

How to import data from MS Access before distribution of a form

I have created a form with Acrobat Pro 9. On the other hand, I have a MS Access database with a lot of information.
I would love to import the data from this database to my form, BEFORE distributing the form the the respondents (they only need to check whether the information we already obtained was correct, so that's why the form needs to contain the already obtained information).
Can anyone help me with this task?

Dear Morgan,
Thanks for your reply.
The data in sql server 2000 which has data in Arabic_CI_AS character set is moved to Oracle 10.2.0.3 database with characterset AL32UTF8. The table data is moved to oracle using the dataloader 3.6 standard edition licensed version.
We cannot change the character set of Sql Server 2000. We have tried changing the data/characterset in Oracle to set the NLS_LANG at OS level to UTF_8 and tried the whole cycle of customer import, but still the customer name is displayed as square box at application level.
How do I post this thread to Globalization Forum? Do I have to create new thread for this again?
(Note: I am new to these OTN Forums).
Thanks,

Importing data from ms access to db2 through java code

hi there,
i want to develop a code in which i can set ODBC settings because i dont want user to manually set these settings using administration tools in control panel.....is there any way of doing this.?
but my main problem is , importing database from .mdb file to db2 using java code only.....
thanks in advance

one point i want to mention here...there is perhaps a 'cursor problem' ( or not a problem at all )...see the following code...
1. while (res.next()) {
2. System.out.println("-> " + res.getString(2));
3. jTextArea1.append("-> " + res.getString(2) + "\n");
4. }
You have a repetition problem.
Cursors are like iterators: you can't reuse them. Once you iterate through them you have to reinitialize them. Some JDBC implementations are picky about the order in which you access variables. This one appears to not allow you to access them twice.
The question is: why do you bother to get this value twice? Just do it once, like this:
while (res.next())
   String str = res.getString(2);
   System.out.println("-> " + str);
    jTextArea1.append("-> " + str + "\n");
}Another question worth asking: Why is UI code mingled in with database code? Poor layering. I hate seeing Swing and JDBC mixed together like this.

Importing Data from MS Access into SQL Serevr 2005 via Linked Server: User-Dependent failure

I am operating an Express version of SQL Server 2005 on a Windows XP machine.
I have successfully setup a linked server to a remote Access (.mdb) database. With my user account (Windows authentication) I can retrieve and store data without any problem.
I have another user (apparently with same settings as my own account) that is always failing to get the data.
The Error message he gets is:
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "TSU_Tmp" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\\DSITSO-NT0001\Exchange\Database5.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another
user, or you need permission to view its data.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "TSU_Tmp".
Here below the code used to set up the linked server (coming from the Code Snippets of SQL Server 2005).
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'TSU_Tmp',
@provider = N'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
@srvproduct = N'OLE DB Provider for Jet',
@datasrc = N'\\DSITSO-NT0001\Exchange\Database5.mdb'
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname = N'TSU_Tmp',
@useself = N'TRUE',
@locallogin = NULL,
@rmtuser = N'Admin',
@rmtpassword = NULL
We both run the script, actually is a Stored Procedure, (see code below) on the same XP machine where SQL Server is running.
EXEC('INSERT INTO tblFcst
(StartBUCode, StartBUType, StartBUSeq, StartTrz, StartCty,
EndBUCode, EndBUType, EndBUSeq, EndTrz, EndCty,
FcstCreationPeriod, FcstValidForPeriod, Fcst, FcstExternalReference,
IsProcessed, IsSolved)
SELECT TSU.BUCodeSend, TSU.BUTypeSend, TSU.BuaNoSend, Null AS StartTrz, Null AS StartCty,
TSU.BUCodeRcv, TSU.BUTypeRcv, TSU.BuaNoRcv, Null AS EndTrz, Null AS EndCty,
TSU.[Current week], TSU.[Forecast for week], TSU.[Volume trp m3], TSU.[TSU_ID (Don''t touch me)],
0 AS IsProcessed, 0 AS IsSolved
FROM TSU_Tmp...tbl_TSU_trpm3 AS TSU;')
PS: it is run using an 'EXEC(String)' format as at compile time of Store Procedure the Linked Server is not existing and otherwise compile would fail.
We tried it with different files, in different locations. It always wors for me, never for him...
The files were not used by anyone else. The folder(s) where they were stored are open to "Everyone".
So I concluded it should be something linked to the User... :) But I really do not know what, as said apparently we have exactely the same setup in our Login profiles.
Any idea or suggestion is welcome.
Thanks
Luca

Hi Luca Lentati,
According to your description and T-SQL statement, we need to verify if the download and install the Microsoft.Jet.OleDB.4.0 as a provider.
If the 64bit SQL Server is running on the server, The error, the Microsoft.Jet.OleDB.4.0 is not support, I reommend you download and install the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 as a provider.
The error 7303 message indicates that the linked server does not have correct login mapping. You can execute the sp_helplinkedsrvlogin stored procedure to set the login information correctly. Also, verify that you have specified the correct parameters
for the linked server configuration.
In addition, if the issue still exists, I recommend you copy the access file to local Server, and create linked server between them , check if it can run well. If yes, it means that
the account which SQL server uses to run the service does not have read/write access to that file share.
There is an article about configuring a Linked Microsoft Access Server on SQL 2005 Server , you can review the following article.

Issue in creation of data from extended segment in background mode

Dear all,
I am facing an issue in creation of data in receiving system using IDOC for an xtended matmas segment(Extended for classification view in user exit).The issue is that the idoc is received successfully in r3eceiving system but not created successfuly in data base .(Though it is shown green/successful).When i execute this from we19 the data is created successfuly in data base.I will be thankful if you can guide me resolve issue.
Thanks.

Hello,
you can use CALL TRANSFORMATION id, which will create a exact "print" of the ABAP data into the XML.
If you need to change the structure of XML, you can alter your ABAP structure to match the requirements.
Of course you can create your own XSLT but that is not that easy to describe and nobody will do that for you around here. If you would like to start with XSLT, you´d better start the search.

I want to import data from access database to editable Adobe X form - java? txt? fdf? :-(

I've been trying to work out how to fill text fields with imported data from an access 2010 database.
So far I've managed to paste all the data in a large text field on a blank page at the end of the document, but nope, that's not it.
If anyone has the answer....... please I would really like to know
Cheers

Acrobat used to have its own database connector on Windows (ADBC) but it was removed in version X. You have two options to connect to a live database that publishes itself through the Windows ODBC system:
Create the form using LiveCycle Designer (shipped with Acrobat X Pro, but now a separate product). XFA forms created this way have inbuilt database connection features and will work in Adobe Reader too.
Use the SOAP object in Acrobat JavaScript - but this will not work in Adobe Reader unless you apply permissions using LiveCycle Reader Extensions Server.

Importing/Exporting data from Microsoft Access

Hello to everybody!
I have to create a management software (client-server).
CLIENT SIDE: ClientS insert data into forms and these data are stored into a database Access (client database). Every month clients send to the server some of the data stored (data of the month!).
SERVER SIDE: "Server man" receive from clients those data by email end need to store them into the main server database.
Note: Data to be send have not a big dimension and, naturally, clients and server databases are identical (same structure)!
My questions are:
1) What is the best way to export data from database access to a file? (I imagine I need to use .XML file). Do I need to use particular package or software??
2) What is the best way to import data from a file (maybe .XML) into a database access (of server)?? Do I need to use particular package or software??
This is my first software of this kind.
Please HELP ME!
Thanks in advance, Liuk.

1) What is the best way to export data from database
access to a file?That depends on many things.
(I imagine I need to use .XML
file). NO! That's not what XML is for
Do I need to use particular package or
software??Again, that depends on a lot of things.
2) What is the best way to import data from a file
(maybe .XML) into a database access (of server)?? Do
I need to use particular package or software??Look at Java IO packages for reading data from files. Then look at JDBC for writing data to databases. Avoid XML, you don't need it.

Importing Data from Access

I have a table in an Access 2002 database, which has about 60000 records, and I'm trying to send that data into an Oracle 8.1.7 database. I have created a link to my Oracle table in Access and wrote an insert statement to insert the data from the Access table into the table in Oracle.
When the query finishes executing, I get a Microsoft Access pop-up display that says 'Overflow'. It doesn't say anything else but 'Overflow'. When I check my Oracle table, the data is not in there.
What does the 'Overflow' message in Access mean and how do I fix it? I've imported the data from other tables in Access to Oracle with the same number of records, keys, constraints, etc. and those were successful.
I don't know what the problem is or what Access means by 'Overflow'.
Please help!!!!

I've created a link to Oracle from Access this way.
I would have guessed that a tool like DTS would have been better suited to this job.

How to Get Current Date from MS Access in a Select Statement

From a java method, I want to use JDBC to get the current date from MS Access. In Oracle I would do "select sysdate from dual", but I can't figure out how to do it in MS Access. Here are some of my attempts. I have a table in my Access db called PARM.
//        String sql = "SELECT '0', NOW() FROM PARM";
//rs.next() is false
//        String sql = "SELECT NOW() AS CURR_DT FROM PARM";
//rs.next() is false
//        String sql = "SELECT DATE() AS CURR_DT FROM PARM";
//rs.next() is false
//        String sql = "SELECT NOW()";
//StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
//        String sql = "select { fn now() } from parm";
        String sql = "SELECT Date()";
//java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException: String index out of range: -1
        ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
        if (rs.next()) {
            return rs.getString(1);
        } else {
               return null;
          }

Why are you getting it as a String? You should be getting it as a timestamp.
Although getString works for me too. There is something else wrong that you haven't shown.
Here is some shoddy, but simple, test code that demonstrates it working.
import java.sql.*;
public class Test{
public static void main(String args[])throws Exception{
    Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
    Connection c = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:stats");
    Statement s = c.createStatement();
    ResultSet rs = s.executeQuery("SELECT NOW()");
    while(rs.next()){
      System.out.println(rs.getTimestamp(1));
    rs.close();
    s.close();
    c.close();
}

Import data from excel/csv file in web dynpro

Hi All,
I need to populate a WD table by first importing a excel/CSV file thru web dynpro screen and then reading thru the file.Am using FileUpload element from NW04s.
How can I read/import data from excel / csv file in web dynpro table context?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi,
Here are the basic steps needed to read data from excel spreadsheet using the Java Excel API(jExcel API).
jExcel API can read a spreadsheet from a file stored on the local file system or from some input stream, ideally the following should be the steps while reading:
Create a workbook from a file on the local file system, as illustrated in the following code fragment:
          import java.io.File;
          import java.util.Date;
          import jxl.*;
         Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("test.xls"));
On getting access to the worksheet, once can use the following code piece to access individual sheets. These are zero indexed - the first sheet being 0, the second sheet being 1, and so on. (You can also use the API to retrieve a sheet by name).
          Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(0);
After getting the sheet, you can retrieve the cell's contents as a string by using the convenience method getContents(). In the example code below, A1 is a text cell, B2 is numerical value and C2 is a date. The contents of these cells may be accessed as follows
Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
String a1 = a1.getContents();
String b2 = b2.getContents();
String c2 = c2.getContents();
// perform operations on strings
However in case we need to access the cell's contents as the exact data type ie. as a numerical value or as a date, then the retrieved Cell must be cast to the correct type and the appropriate methods called. The code piece given below illustrates how JExcelApi may be used to retrieve a genuine java double and java.util.Date object from an Excel spreadsheet. For completeness the label is also cast to it's correct type. The code snippet also illustrates how to verify that cell is of the expected type - this can be useful when performing validations on the spreadsheet for presence of correct datatypes in the spreadsheet.
String a1 = null;
Double b2 = 0;
Date c2 = null;
                    Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
                    Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
                    Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
                    if (a1.getType() == CellType.LABEL)
                       LabelCell lc = (LabelCell) a1;
                       stringa1 = lc.getString();
                     if (b2.getType() == CellType.NUMBER)
                       NumberCell nc = (NumberCell) b2;
                       numberb2 = nc.getValue();
                      if (c2.getType() == CellType.DATE)
                        DateCell dc = (DateCell) c2;
                        datec2 = dc.getDate();
                       // operate on dates and doubles
It is recommended to, use the close() method (as in the code piece below)   when you are done with processing all the cells.This frees up any allocated memory used when reading spreadsheets and is particularly important when reading large spreadsheets.
          // Finished - close the workbook and free up memory
          workbook.close();
The API class files are availble in the 'jxl.jar', which is available for download.
Regards
Raghu

Is there any way of importing stuffs from Microsoft Access to SQL Server?

I have quite a big store of information Microsoft Access DB, but now i am required to switch to SQL Server?
Is there any way of importing to SQL Server, either by Java programming or manually?
Thank you in advance.

I like to give some tips on how to fulfil the requirement.. I haven't tried this. If you succeeded, it is well and good.
1) Using Java:
If you like to Java to import the data from MS Access to SQL Server, you have to write a JDBC Program in such a way that it has to retrieve the data from each MSAccess tables and store it in temperory java varaible.After writng into the temp. varaibles, the same thing will be written into SQL Server. The whole process is repeated for all the tables in MS Access.
2) Manual Process:
Try to get the data scripts from MS-Access for all the tables and Load the same into SQL Server
I hope that Manual Process consumes less time compared in writing the codes for transformation..
I hope that you got some idea on reading this. If you have any doubts, try to get back to me..

Importing data from SQL Server

I'm relatively new to Oracle, and my question is about importing data. I have an SQL 2000 server and I export a database using Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle. The process finished OK but when I tried to query the tables qith SQL Plus Worksheet, I get a message saying:
select * from rwp_purge
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
but the table is there. I can see it using DBA Studio. So, what is happening? Do I have to commit transactions after importing data from SQL Server? Do I have to rebuild statistics?
thanks in advance,
Gonzalo Pellegrini

Was the table created in the schema you are loggin as when trying to access the table? If not, you will have to grant access to the table logged in as the table owner.
