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.

Using Oracle Forms Importing Data From SQL Server into Oracle Tables.

Dear All,
We are using Oracle Forms 10g in windows XP and having OAS 10g and Oracle database 9i.
How can we import data from SQL Server 2005 into Oracle tables using Oracle Forms?
Thanks & Regards
Eidy

I have no idea what "Oracle Hetrogenius Services" is, so I can't help you with that, sorry.
SQL Developer might also assist you. SQL Developer can connect to SQL Server as well as Oracle and has some tools for migration. See the documentation for details:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12151_01/doc.150/e12156/toc.htm
For additional help on using SQL Developer for this task, please consult Support or the SQL Developer forum: SQL Developer
Hope this helps,

Import data from a file into oracle db

Hello!
The problem is the following: data within a file must be placed
into several tables in a oracle server. For that a program has
to be written. It4s not done with executing a program cause the
data in the file can vary and depending on different flags the
import into oracle must be done. Now we tried the classes of
oo4o to access the db, but this only works for integer values,
the samples from oracle also only work for integer. We don4t
need to use oo40, is there a better / other way to write the
programm ? Has anybody a free sample ?
Thanx

ur problem is to import the data from file with different conditions which needs to be taken care programitically
Pls mail me your file and ur logic

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.

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):

How to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

how to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

You can use heterogeneous services (HS) connection to MS-Access from Oracle and still use the same PL/SQL (or even a single CTAS statement) or SQL to load directly to Oracle tables. It's transparent, quick and clean as opposed to writing complex control files.
You might have to set the ODBC connection to your Access database and add the details to Oracle listener.
Please let me know if you are not sure how to set up the connection.

Periodic Importing of data from SQL Server into Oracle Database

I would like to know how I can use the SQL Developer tool to import data from a SQL Server database across the internet into an Oracle Database on a periodic basis? I understand there is a Migration Workbench, but it seems to be only a one off activity.
What I would really like is to be able to import data for example, very 30 minutes from multiple tables/views in a SQL Server Database into an Oracle Database (overwriting or modifying existing same data) without the need for Heterogeneous Connectivity, as my Oracle Database is not my LAN.
Thank you for your kind ideas and suggestions.

To be honest the best way to do it is DG4ODBC or DG4MSQL. All other solutions need manual interaction.
The gateways DG4ODBC and DG4MSQL are independant from the Oracle database and also from the SQL Server location. In a worst case scenario you have an Oracle database on machine A, the gateway on machine B and the SQL Server on machine C.
Gateways were built to exactly do what you want. As you have access to the Oracle database the only part you need to define within the Oracle database is a db link. If you specify the full tns connect identifier there is even no need to edit the tnsnames.ora file.
Even if you excluded the gateway in your last sentence the best solution would be the gateway.
Another option you can use is the SQL Server linked server mechanism. It allows you to link another server using OLEDB driver. In your case you can then link the Oracle db into your SQL Server and then insert/update/delete and select Oracle tables from the SQL Server. Using now a trigger will replicate the data immediately to the Oracle db.

Import data from SQL Server into MS Word document for Mail Merge purpose ?

Hi,
Is it possible to import contacts from SQL Server into MS Word for mail merge purpose or if retrieving data from MS Excel can we update the data in MS Excel sheet without opening it ?
Note: Remember when you open a word document already set up for mail merge, asks you to run the query to return all records from the excel sheet it is connected to.
Khurram

Word and the current data source dialog do not really give you any help with that.
You either have to be able to create a View in SQL Server that performs the query you need, then connect to that, or you have to be able to create the correct query manually (or perhaps using some other query tool that can help you), then use VBA to connect
using that query.
For example, if you have been through the connection process once (connecting to a single table) then you will have a .odc (Office Data Connection file) which has the info. needed to connect to the correct server and database. It's a text file with some
HTML and XML inside. You can copy/rename it. Let's say it is called "c:\a\myodc.odc" Then in VBA you can use something like
ActiveDocument.OpenDataSource Name:="c:\a\myodc.odc, _
SQLStatement:="put your SQL statement in here, and if it is long,...", _
SQLStatement1:="put the second part in here"
You get a maximum of either 255 or around 511 characters in the SQL statement, and Word tends to impose some syntax requirements that Transact-SQL does not, so e.g. you may need to quote all your table names.
You can also se an empty .odc file and provide connection info. in the COnnection:= parameter in OpenDataSource.
As background, until Word 2000, by default you would use MS Query to create your SQL query, and MS Query does have facilities that can help you build your query (a bit like the ones in MS Access). That may still be possible (it is a bit harder to find the MS
Query option now, and I am not sure it works with the latest versions of Word). MS Query only works for ODBC queries, and they do not always work correctly when you actually issue the query using ODBC from Word, because of a Word problem to do with Unicode
fields in SQL Server. But you could probably still use MS Query to help you construct your SQL. (It's probably easier to do that in Excel, though).

Uploading data from MS Access into SAP R3 v3.1

Hey Gurus,
I am wondering which options I have to import data from a MS Access database into SAP R3 version3.1. For example, can I make use of the LSM Workbench?
Regards,
Pim
points are awarded if helpfull

It is much better to take the help of technical person, as directly you can upload the data from MS Access to SAP ..the thing you have to keep in mind is tell theABAPer to convert the file into a .txt one..as then only SAP will allow.
Reward Points if it helps,

Import data from SQL Server to Oracle

I have created a dblink in oracle to access the SQL database. I am able to run queries through the dblink and it works fine. I have created a test table on Oracle Server to import the data. The field named "description" has CLOB data type. The corresponding datatype on SQL Server is varchar(7000).
When I insert the data from SQL Server, it completes successfully without any error but it truncates the data on CLOB field.
If I run the select query in SQLPlus I can see the entire description.
Select "description" from sql_view@dblink;
-- the above works fine.
CREATE table test
(description CLOB);
INSERT INTO TEST
Select "description" from sql_view@dblink;
-- this works but it truncates the data after 256 characters
My question is, how to get the data from SQL Server without truncating characters.
Thanks in advance,
Gopal

I hear the same from other friend that sql server truncated the leading zeros from the id column.
I really don't have a solution for this but you can try the work around. Export the data to flat file and upload in oracle using SQL loader, as this would be much faster and efficient.

Upload data from microsoft access to oracle form(in data block)

Hi all,
Any one can help me, how we can upload data from access file to developer form(in data block).
as
we upload data from text file to developer form(in data block) using some packages.
Thank's in advance

Hi Zuhair,
If you give details of the problems you are still having then we should be able to get SQL*Developer to work.
However, if you don't want to use SQL*Developer then the following options are taken from note 393760.1 available in Metalink if you have access to that -
1. Use a gateway that supports the non-Oracle database or generic connectivity if a third party ODBC driver is available to do a -
'create Oracle_table as select from non_oracle_table@database_link'
for each table. You would then have to manually create all the other objects (views, indexes, stored procedurs etc) and permissions etc that existed in the non-Oracle database.
2. Use the SQL*Plus COPY command to copy data from the non-Oracle database to the
Oracle database using a gateway or generic connectivity. The syntax is as follows:
COPY FROM username/password@oracle_sid -
INSERT destination_oracle_table -
USING query;
The following example selects all rows from the EMP table in the non-Oracle database and
inserts them into the local Oracle EMP table:
COPY FROM SCOTT/TIGER@ora10 -
INSERT EMP -
USING SELECT * FROM SCOTT.EMP@gateway;
where "gateway" is the database link created for the gateway.
3. Load the non-Oracle data into flat files and use SQL*Loader to put the data into Oracle tables. Again manual
work is required for the other objects.
4. Contact the Oracle Product Technology Services (PTS) group for assistance. See the webpage -
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
5. Use a third party migration tool. See -
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/isv/third_party.html
6. Use JDBC to connect to the non-Oracle database and Java in the Oracle database. This method will work but it is not suppported by the JDBC team.
=========
The amount of work involved will depend on the number and size of Access tables that you want to migrate.
Regards,
Mike

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,
Shanil
