Pulling data from spool file

Does anyone know if it is possible to take say a spool file that you created intead of printing something and using jsp to scan the file and pull info out of it and place it into database fields? For example if the spool file contains info such as name, date, description, Is it possible to write soemthing in jsp or java that can pull it out and put it into say table in a mysql, sql server, or oracle db? I don't need to know exactly how, but rather can it be done? In not, any suggestions on how? Ie using asp, php, cfm? Any input would help greatly
Regards,
John

not sure what format the spool file is in, but it is pretty easy to open and read a text file in with java. Then you can just parse the file. jdk1.4.1 even has out of the box support for regular expressions.(regex) if needed. Once you have parsed it, also easy to insert into mysql,oracle etc. using jdbc.

File reporter questions - pulling data from db / files for o

I've been trying to find a way to query or pull file and path info for volumes from the file reporter databases without needing to give access to the file reporter app. I have an outside group that I need to provide the file structure to, but don't need to give all of the info to, and need to provide it in the form of a text file. I could script this out, but if file reporter does this also, I don't see the point in duplicating the data out there.
In reviewing the content of the sqlite databases it doesn't appear that the actual file system info. I see a lot of references to what I think may be files in the directory structure that the databases are located in. looking over the logs and debug files in these directories they look like they may contain what I am looking for, but I'm not sure what can be used to open or extract the data from them. Does anyone know what I would use to open or extract the zcf files located in them?
so I've made a few attempts at trying to figure out the format these are in, but know they are not sqlite data... not zip or gzip... but definitely some sort of data file.

rbgnr111,
It sounds like you might be better off exporting a report which suits
your needs as a CSV file (which can be done from within File Reporter)
and stripping out unnecessary 'columns' of metadata after the fact. This
would be a great deal simpler than extracting the data from the database.

Pulling data from table to a flat file

hi all,
Good day to all,
Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB's. Usage of db link is restricted. The db version is 10.2.0.4.
thanks,
baskar.l

Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB'sFlat file is adequate only from VARCHAR2, NUMBER, & DATA datatypes.
Other datatypes present a challenge within text file.
A more robust solution is to use export/import to move data between Oracle DBs.

Creating Rule file to pull data from OCI Interface

Hi.
I am new to OCI, I have worked on DSN method earlier to pull data from database.
Can someone give me steps of how to pull data from OCI interface.
My database is Oracle 11gR2 and I am using 11.1.2.2 Fusion version.
Regards
Mahesh Balla

The following post may help - Re: Essbase Rules Files and OCI
There have been a number of issues relating to data and using OCI, I am not sure whether they are all resolved in 11.1.2.2 so if you are using OCI make sure you validate the data once loaded into essbase.

Hello Jdesko,
Thank you for you prompt response. Yes, I have changed the connections variables in my dataservice ( I didn't post real values). You are right, after all I didn't make changes on the gateway.php except to add some tracking points. The one that I changed is the amf.config,ini. The application runs without any error exceptions, but don't populate the datagrid. According with the tracing is stoping just when establishing the connection to the database. Please let me know if you have any other clue. thanks

UNIQUE Problem in pulling DATA from DATA base table to internal table

Dear Experts,
I am new to ABAP. I have a very basic question but looks a quite puzzling one to me. Hemnce I am posting it here.
I am facing an unique problem in pulling data from database table and populating that data into internal table for further use.
The data in the database table "Zlt_mita" with fields M1 (Employee Name, Type: Char20) and M2 (Employee Code, Type Char7) are:
Plz refer the screenshot in the attached file:
My Code:
1) When I try to pull data from Dbase table by taking M2 as parameter.
     This code is succcessful and I am able to populate data in internal table it_dat.
TYPES: Begin Of ty_DAT,
                 M1   TYPE Zlt_mita-M1,
                 M2   TYPE ZLT_mita-M2,
             END OF ty_DAT.
DATA: it_dat        TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_dat with header line,
          wa_dat      TYPE   ty_dat.
PARAMETERS: p_mitar    TYPE Zlt_Mita-M2.
SELECT           M1
                       M2
        FROM     ZLt_mita
        INTO       TABLE it_dat
        Where     M2 = p_mitar.
Loop at it_dat into wa_dat.
   WRITE:/2 wa_dat-M1,
              10 wa_dat-M2.
ENDLOOP.
2) When I try to pull data from Dbase table by taking M1 as parameter.
     This code is NOT succcessful and I am NOT able to populate data in internal table it_dat.
TYPES: Begin Of ty_DAT,
                 M1   TYPE Zlt_mita-M1,
                 M2   TYPE ZLT_mita-M2,
             END OF ty_DAT.
DATA: it_dat        TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_dat with header line,
           wa_dat      TYPE   ty_dat.
PARAMETERS:    P_Mita    TYPE   ZLT_Mita-M1.
SELECT           M1
                       M2
        FROM     ZLt_mita
        INTO       TABLE it_dat
        Where     M1 = P_Mita.
Loop at it_dat into wa_dat.
   WRITE:/2 wa_dat-M1,
             10 wa_dat-M2.
ENDLOOP.
Why is this happening when both M1 and M2 are Type Character fields.
Looking forward for your replies.
Regards
Chandan Kumar

Hi Chandan ,
Database fetch is case sensitive ,So u need to give exact format in where condition.
Make your parameter and database in same case so that you need not worry about case sensitivity .
Check the lowecase check box in the domain .
Then declare your parameter
PARAMETERS:
P_Mita
TYPE   ZLT_Mita-M1 LOWER CASE .
You can do the vice versa also by unchecking lowercase and giving Upper case instead of lower in parameter declartion .

Oracle B2B 11g question about pulling data from remote TP sftp server

Hi,
We would like replace our custom b2b solution with oracle b2b, but without resulting much changes in remote TP side. To do that the following issues are to be resolved.
1) in the existing custom b2b, host tp is pulling data from remote TP location. How does oracle b2b pull data from remote location using sftp(AS1 1.1)? Oracle document says that by using global listening channel, we can make oracle b2b listen to the sftp server? Is that correct? Is there any sample about how to configure and test it.
2) For outbound file we would like to preserve the file name. If you use sftp for sending the file out, is it possible to preserve the filename?
3) Some incoming files which are datafiles , does not have any identification pattern. Is there any other way to identify the document type? For example from which location we are pulling the file can tell us the document type.

1) in the existing custom b2b, host tp is pulling data from remote TP location. How does oracle b2b pull data from remote location using sftp(AS1 1.1)? Oracle document says that by using global listening channel, we can make oracle b2b listen to the sftp server? Is that correct? Is there any sample about how to configure and test it. I am not sure what do you mean by AS1 1.1 but yes, SFTP is supported in Oracle B2B and if you want to poll a SFTP location, then you need to create a listening channel in Oracle B2B. For creating a listening channel, please refer -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10229/bb_listen_chan.htm#BAJJICJJ
2) For outbound file we would like to preserve the file name. If you use sftp for sending the file out, is it possible to preserve the filename?Yes, it is possible. There is a setting "Preserve Filename" in transport protocol parameter of a SFTP channel which should be enabled for this purpose.
3) Some incoming files which are datafiles , does not have any identification pattern. Is there any other way to identify the document type? For example from which location we are pulling the file can tell us the document type. In case of FTP/FILE/SFTP, file name can be used to pass document type and revision information to Oracle B2B. Please refer "Filename format" setting on the above mentioned link.
I figured it out from another thread about how to pull the file. I configured the listening channel so that it reads from a remote server using sftpo protocol. And I have given the filename format as %FROM_PARTY%.dat. I am putting a file like TESTBC.dat. TESTBC is the name of the remote TP. B2B is reading the file but, recognizes the document tupe, but says that FromTP null. What is the solution?
Make sure that TP name is same as what you are giving in filename (cross-check for spelling). You may also try with default naming convention (do not mention anything in Filename format in listening channel configuration) - %FROM_PARTY%_%TIMESTAMP%.dat
for eg -
Acme_12345.dat

Pulling data from a SharePoint 2007 List

I'm wondering if anyone has figured out how to pull data from a column in a SharePoint 2007 list to be able to dyamically generate a reaction in a flash object.
Our designer created a dashboard of thermometers for our projects that use two variables, % complete and status (green, yellow, red, blue).
As the end user, I want to be able to update my project in my SharePoint list and have it so that my updates automatically populate that flash based dashboard. Right now, he's using an XML document that is stored in a folder on our SharePoint site and then simply updating the XML file when there are changes.
It would be ideal to pull this data from the list rather than having to update and then upload the xml document to the SharePoint site - any ideas?
Thanks!

Sharepoint has a rich XML interface accessible via the URL. Just point your XML.load to the List data from this interface.
An example of XML / URL access is here:
http://vspug.com/dwise/2008/01/10/accessing-sharepoint-list-data-as-xml/
Hope that gets you started.

Question about Skywire Documaker - where can it pull data from ?

Does the Skywire Documaker product have an ability to pull data from a Relational Database into a form’s field? What other data sources are available to pull data, besides the extract data file (DAT), and xml file?

In response to your question about where Oracle Documaker pulls data from:
DB calls may be done as part of the document generation process to look up data. However it is not designed to maintain and open DB connection. This is also not a recommended best practice. Transall is shipped as part of the Doucmaker solution and it is designed to connect to multiple sources (including DB) and produce an input file for Documaker. Creating DB connections is considered an IT related task and does not fit in with positioning Documaker as a business user tool.
