IMPORT/EXPORT FROM DATA BUFFER

Hi,
I have some code like this:
DATA: b type xstring.
DATA: a type xstirng.
EXPORT '1234' TO DATA BUFFER b.
IMPORT a FROM DATA BUFFER b.
for some reason a does not get set to the value that I assigned to b.
However, this code works:
DATA: b type xstring.
DATA: a type xstirng.
EXPORT some_internal_table TO DATA BUFFER b.
IMPORT a FROM DATA BUFFER b.
Does anybody know why internal tables work but other data types do not?
Thank you.

EXPORT '1234' TO DATA BUFFER b, not working because, you did not assign a variable name to '1234' to be stored as in data buffer B.
Change the code to:
DATA: b type xstring.
DATA: a(4) type c.
EXPORT a = '1234' TO DATA BUFFER b.
IMPORT a FROM DATA BUFFER b.
It's working in the second case because, some_internal_table is the name of the variable in databuffer B and you are importing into the same variable in IMPORT

Import/Export xml data from subtree of dynamic XFA form

Hi
We would like to import/export xml data (subtree) of a dynamic xfa form. The following script does only work with static AcroForms:
formular.content.subformDaten.Button1[1]::click - (JavaScript, client)
event.target.exportAsXFDF({aFields:["formular[0].content[0].subformDaten[0]"]});
With dynamic forms the script does export an empty xml file (no data is included, only xml root tag):
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xfdf xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/xfdf/" xml:space="preserve"
><f href="ExportTest_frei.pdf"
/><ids original="EA43F92A6B6EA34F9C4DBBC2DA0B1840" modified="6A7C6282A167594F91240B773AA979A7"
/></xfdf
>
Any ideas? Many thanks.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Paul
The Problem that Daniel posted was originally mine. Now after subscribing to this forum myself, I try to describe the aim of using exportAsXFDF/importAnXFDF.
exportData("", false) and exportXFAData works, in my opinion, only with a DataConnection. In my form I have indeed such a connection for sending the whole form. But in addition I need the possibility to export and import only part of the data without overwriting the rest of the filled form.
exportAsXFDF works with static forms. So there MUST be a possibility that works with dynamic forms, right?
I hope anyone has a solution.

Memory Limit for "IMPORT/EXPORT from MEMORY ID" statement

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me whether there is any memory limit exists for "IMPORT/EXPORT from MEMORY ID" statement.
Like may be we can transfer xx MB of data via this......or it is open, we can transfer any amount of data to ABAP memory via this.
Regards
Munish Garg

1. Each user sessions have external sessions and each external sessions have internal sessions.
2. The programs being executed in the internal sessions can access ABAP memory
3.ABAP memory is a storage area for internal program variables like fields, structures, internal tables,,They can be passed between internal sessions of an external session.
4. you can transfer data through ABAp memory using IMPORT and EXPORT statements
5. after IMPORT FROM MEMORY ID <id> , you can use sy-subrc to check the existance of the cluster ID. here sy-subrc is not used to check whether the Import was successful or not.

hi
Examples of Using Different Releases of Export and Import
Table 19-7 shows some examples of which Export and Import releases to use when moving data between different releases of the Oracle database.
Table 19-7 Using Different Releases of Export and Import
Export from->Import to Use Export Release Use Import Release
8.1.6 -> 8.1.6 8.1.6 8.1.6
8.1.5 -> 8.0.6 8.0.6 8.0.6
8.1.7 -> 8.1.6 8.1.6 8.1.6
9.0.1 -> 8.1.6 8.1.6 8.1.6
9.0.1 -> 9.0.2 9.0.1 9.0.2
9.0.2 -> 10.1.0 9.0.2 10.1.0
10.1.0 -> 9.0.2 9.0.2 9.0.2
Restrictions When Using Different Releases and Versions of Export and Import
The following restrictions apply when you are using different releases of Export and Import:
1.Export dump files can be read only by the Import utility because they are stored in a special binary format.
2.Any export dump file can be imported into a later release of the Oracle database.
3.The Import utility cannot read export dump files created by the Export utility of a later maintenance release or version. For example, a release 9.2 export dump file cannot be imported by a release 9.0.1 Import utility.
4.Whenever a lower version of the Export utility runs with a later version of the Oracle database, categories of database objects that did not exist in the earlier version are excluded from the export.
5.Export files generated by Oracle9i Export, either direct path or conventional path, are incompatible with earlier releases of Import and can be imported only with Oracle9i Import. When backward compatibility is an issue, use the earlier release or version of the Export utility against the Oracle9i database.

Questions on Subviews and Import/Export in Data Modeler v3 EA1.

I have a few questions about the capabilities of Data Modeler v3 EA1:
1) Is it possible to rename subviews? Would like more meaningful names then Relational_x - Subview_x.
2) Is it possible to save documents at subview level?
3) Is it possible to import/export subsets of data?
4) Having problems importing Erwin 7 .xml file, is there known problems with this import?
Judy

Hi Judy,
1) To rename a subview just right click on it in the browser tree and select "Properties". In the properties dialog change the name and click OK button.
2) You can save a subview as new Data Modeler design - from the File menu select Export -> To Data Modeling Design. In the newly opened dialog select the subview you want to export and click OK button.
3) After saving a subview as new design (see answer #2) it can be imported in some other design (File -> Import -> Data Modeler Design).
4) What kind of problems do you have with import of Erwin 7.* xml file?
Regards,
Ivan

Maxl Import - Export L0 data crashes

Hi to all,We have an automation Maxl script, for a mission critical application where we export 6 times a day all L0 data, then import them back again, .It has been running for sometime smoothly, but suddenly it startet to crash, meaning it doesnt export the data or import it back in.We write on a file specific directory other than app\db (we tried this one but didnt work).We use MS W2000 server Essbase 6.5.We heard from Hyp that maybe there is a bug on v6.5Does anyone had similar problems?Thanksyannis

The SQL run via the load rule understands my subvars. The load rule SQL looks like this:
select...
WHERE
AND (('1' = '&IncSpanYr' --IF THE PERIODS SPAN YEARS
AND (('12' = '&CurMoNm' --IN JUNE LOOK INTO NEXT YEAR PERIOD 1
AND ((A.FISCAL_YEAR = '&CurYrNm' AND A.ACCOUNTING_PERIOD IN ('&PriMoNm', '&CurMoNm'))
This turns into:
WHERE
AND (('1' = '1' --IF THE PERIODS SPAN YEARS
AND (('12' = '12' --IN JUNE LOOK INTO NEXT YEAR PERIOD 1
AND ((A.FISCAL_YEAR = '2014' AND A.ACCOUNTING_PERIOD IN ('2', '3'))
My issue is getting a dump of all that data that the SQL is pulling. I don't see a way to do that in the import database command. A separate job on the SQL side (like SSIS) could pull the data, but can't access the subvars easily. Does that make sense? Or did I misunderstand your suggestion?
Thanks-
Cameron

Arabic support in isqlplus after import export from 7.3.4 to 10.2.0.3

CANNOT DISPLAY ARABIC IN ISQL*PLUS(JUNK). APPLICATION WORKS FINE WITH ARABIC
with Taret DB char set to US7ASCII the data is always junk old data +new inserted arabic data inserted thro isqlplus or sqlplus.
with AR8MSWIN1256 the old data(imported in to new db from old 7.3.4 db export dump) is displayed as junk (what ever in the db) and after creating a new table data inserted, the arabic display is fine.
How to overcome the problem of displaying old data? we have lots of data for migration.
Thanks

Small correction
In DB with Char set to AR8MSWIN1256.......
Old data exported from 7.3.4 and imported in new 10.2.0.3 db is showing arabic char as junk
But new table created and data inserted as arabic is displaying properly.
What has to be done such that old imported data displays arabic.
We are using isqlplus and sqlplus to query the data
Thanks

Import/Export from Access MDB to Oracle DB

Dear Friends,
I need to import a huge table from access to Oracle. I tried to export the file from MS Access to Oracle, it is giving error. I tried another way of doing , i first exported the data to SQL server and then using Export/Import utility of SQL Server, it has imported succesfully. I am not sure which is the best way to import data from ACCESS to Oracle.
Kindly suggest,
Regards,
Vinay

Another approach you might try goes something like this:
1. In Access, link the destination Oracle table (for example, via File, Get External Data, Link Tables...).
2. In Access, create an Append Query to select rows from your Access table and insert them in to the linked Oracle table.

IGES or VDA-FS import/export from DIADEM to/from CATIA

We need to import/export data in either IGES or VDA-FS file format with DIADEM to/from CATIA. The data is a three dimensional array of coordinates representing the contour of a automotive seat.
Does anyone know where to get or have such a file filter?

Dear Otmar,
I'm investigating this for a new customer project.
IGES is a standard file format used to excange data between CAD systems.
VDA-FS is a file format which is standardized by the german automotive industry consortium.
Currently I have no description for the file formats nor any data files.
I will make a new comment within 6 weeks if I need more help from you.

IMPORT & EXPORT from/to compressed files directly...

for newbies a tip to import(export) directly to(from) compressed files using pipes . Its for Unix based systems only, as I am not aware of any pipe type functionality in Windows. The biggest advantage is that you can save lots of space as uncompressing a file makes it almost 5 times or more. (Suppose you are uncompressing a file of 20 GB, it will make 100 GB) As a newbie I faced this problem, so thought about writing a post.
Lets talk about export first. The method used is that create a pipe, write to a pipe(ie the file in exp command is the pipe we created), side by side read the contents of pipe, compress(in the background) and redirect to a file. Here is the script that achieves this:
export ORACLE_SID=MYDB
rm -f ?/myexport.pipe
mkfifo ?/myexport.pipe
cat ?/myexport.pipe |compress > ?/myexport.dmp.Z &
sleep 5
exp file=?/myexport.pipe full=Y log=myexport.logSame way for import, we create a pipe, zcat from the dmp.Z file, redirect it to the pipe and then read from pipe:
export ORACLE_SID=MYDB
rm -f ?/myimport.pipe
mkfifo ?/myimport.pipe
zcat ?/myexport.dmp.Z > ?/myimport.pipe &
sleep 5
imp file=myimport.pipe full=Y show=Y log=?/myimport.logIn case there is any issue with the script, do let me know :)
Experts, please have a look...is it fine ? (Actually I dont have Oracle installed on my laptop(though have Fedora 6) so couldnt test the scripts)
I posted the same on my blog too. just for bookmark ;)
Sidhu
http://amardeepsidhu.blogspot.com

actually, only the compression thing runs in the background. rest proceeds like normal only. just instead of giving normal file we use pipe as a file.
nice article about named pipes

IMPORT/EXPORT FROM ADDRESS BOOK TO ENTOURAGE

Is there a way to export/import contacts from the Address Book to Entourage? Thanks

Try this.
With the Address Book and Entourage launched and positioned so each is partially visible and the Entourage Address Book selected, select a contact in the Address Book "All" Group and at the menu bar, go to Edit > Select All. Click and drag the highlighted contacts from the Address Book to the Entourage Address Book window which should copy the Address Book contacts to the Entourage Address Book.
You can do the same with selected contacts only if you don't want to export all.

How to automate Import/export Essbase data 11.1.2

Hi,
After migration from Dev to Test environment using LCM (EPMA Planning, Shared services) I have questions:
1) How to automate export from source and import in Destination?
2) If we have enabled MSAD in shared services, What should be standard practice to sync provisioning in both environment?
Regards
Kumar

Hi John,
I see only Native directory
Application Group>Foundation>shared services> - Native directory
- Task flows
Application Group>Foundation>shared services> - Native directory>assigned Roles> foundation>shared services
I feel MSAD should be here but not sure as it is just new environment and we enabled MSAD.
Please suggest where can i check Import/export in LCM 11.1.2?

Kumar
