List<string> listA = new List<string>();
while (!reader.EndOfStream)
var line = reader.ReadLine();
string[] values = line.Split(',');

listA.Add(values[1]);
listA.Add(values[2]);
// listB.Add(values[1]);
foreach (string str in listA)
//StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(File.OpenWrite(@"D:\\suman.txt"));

Very simple example:
var column1 = new List<string>();
var column2 = new List<string>();
using (var rd = new StreamReader("filename.csv"))
while (!rd.EndOfStream)
var splits = rd.ReadLine().Split(';');
column1.Add(splits[0]);
column2.Add(splits[1]);
// print column1
Console.WriteLine("Column 1:");
foreach (var element in column1)
Console.WriteLine(element);
// print column2
Console.WriteLine("Column 2:");
foreach (var element in column2)
Console.WriteLine(element);

SQL server 2014 and VS 2013 - Dataflow task, read CSV file and insert data to SQL table

Hello everyone,
I was assigned a work item wherein, I've a dataflow task on For Each Loop container at control flow of SSIS package. This For Each Loop container reads the CSV files from the specified location one by one, and populates a variable with current
file name. Note, the tables where I would like to push the data from each CSV file are also having the same names as CSV file names.
On the dataflow task, I've Flat File component as a source, this component uses the above variable to read the data of a particular file. Now, here my question comes, how can I move the data to destination, SQL table, using the same variable name?
I've tried to setup the OLE DB destination component dynamically but it executes well only for first time. It does not change the mappings as per the columns of the second CSV file. There're around 50 CSV files, each has different set off columns
in it. These files needs to be migrated to SQL tables using the optimum way.
Does anybody know which is the best way to setup the Dataflow task for this requirement?
Also, I cannot use Bulk insert task here as we would like to keep a log of corrupted rows.
Any help would be much appreciated. It's very urgent.
Thanks, <b>Ankit Shah</b> <hr> Inkey Solutions, India. <hr> Microsoft Certified Business Management Solutions Professionals <hr> http://ankit.inkeysolutions.com

The standard Data Flow Task supports only static metadata defined during design time. I would recommend you check the commercial COZYROC
Data Flow Task Plus. It is an extension of the standard Data Flow Task and it supports dynamic metadata at runtime. You can process all your input CSV files using a single Data Flow Task
Plus. No programming skills are required.

etc...
how can i read the contents of this textfile and put the data into an ArrayList called ArrayList<Customer> customerList.
i knew that i need two classes, one for CustomerDetails and one for ReadFile.
i have already done the customer class as:
import java.util.Date;
public class Customer
    String Name;
    int CustomerNo;
    String Postcode;
    String teleNo;
    Date lastModified;
    public Customer(String Name, int CustomerNo, String Postcode, String teleNo, Date lastModified)
     assign(Name, CustomerNo, Postcode, teleNo, lastModified);
    public void assign(String Name, int CustomerNo, String Postcode, String teleNo, Date lastModified)
     this.Name=Name;
     this.CustomerNo=CustomerNo;
     this.Postcode=Postcode;
     this.teleNo=teleNo;
     this.lastModified=lastModified;
    public String toString()
     String allDetails = "Name: "+Name+
         ", Customer No: "+CustomerNo+
         ", Postcode:"+Postcode+
         ", Telephone No: "+teleNo+
         ", Last Modified Date: "+lastModified;
     return allDetails;
}i just wondering how can i code the ReadFile class?
can anyone help me please. thank you in advance.

thank you for your suggestion, but i have already started to code the readCustomer class using the Scanner.
the code i got so far is:
import java.util.Scanner;
import java.io.*;
public class readCustomer
    public static void main(String[] args)
     readCustomer("Customers.txt");
    public static void readCustomer(String filename)
     try {
         Scanner scanner = new Scanner(new File(filename));
         scanner.useDelimiter(System.getProperty("line.separator"));
         while (scanner.hasNext()) {
          processLine(scanner.next());
         scanner.close();
     } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
         e.printStackTrace();
    public static void processLine(String line)
     Scanner scanner2 = new Scanner(line);
     scanner2.useDelimiter("\\s*:\\s*");
     String description = scanner2.next();
*// here is where i am struggling. i don't know how to get the information after the : sign*
}i am currently struggling with the processLine method?
also, i am not sure how to group a set of information and put them into the arraylist.
Any hint, please. Thank you.

Stage tab delimited CSV file and load the data into a different table

Hi,
I pretty new to writing PL/SQL packages.
We are using Application express for our development. We get CSV files which is stored as a BLOB content in a table. I need to write a trigger that would get executed once the user the uploads the file and parse thru the Blob content and upload or stage the data in a different table.
I would like to see if there is any tutorial or article that could explain the above process with the example or sample code to do the same. Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Hi,
This is slightly unusual but at the same time easy to solve. You can read through a blob using the dbms_lob package, which is one of the Oracle supplied packages. This is presumably the bit you are missing, as once you know how you read a lob the rest is programming 101.
Alternatively, you could write the lob out to a file on the server using another built in package called utl_file. This file can be parsed using an appropriately defined external table. External tables are the easiest way of reading data from flat files, including csv.
I say unusual because why are you loading a csv file into a blob? A clob is almost understandable but if you can load into a column in a table why not skip this bit and just load the data as it comes in straight into the right table?
All of what I have described is documented functionality, assuming you are on 9i or greater. But you didn't provide a version so I can't provide a link to the documentation ;)

1) Next time use the CODE tags. this is way too much unreadable crap.
2) The problem is your String[][] data.... the only place I see you do anything approching initializing it is
data = new String[numLines][];I think you want to do this..
data = new String[numLines][3];anyway that's why it's blowing up on the line
data[row][col]=st.nextToken();

Reading a file and parsing the data for a calculation method

i am trying to read a file with 3 feilds double double and int . am able to read the file but i am getting an exception right befor i parse the data ...code
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.FileReader;
import java.io.*;
//import com.sun.java.util.jar.pack.Package.File;
public class FileTester {
public static String mLine;
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          BufferedReader in = null;
          try{
          File f = new File ("loan.txt.txt");
          in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(f));
          catch(FileNotFoundException e)
               System.out.println("file does not exist");
               System.exit(0);
          try{
          String mLine = in.readLine();
          while (mLine != null){
               System.out.println(mLine);
               mLine = in.readLine();
          }}catch(Exception e)
          {System.out.println(e.getMessage());
          String []data = mLine.split("\t");
          double loan = Double.parseDouble(data[0]);
          double interest = Double.parseDouble(data[1]);
          int term = Integer.parseInt(data[2]);
          System.out.println(loan+interest+term);
afterwards i would like to break this up into three methods to feed the values to a calculation class

Take a look at your while loop. It continues to loop as long as mLine != null. Therefore it stops looping when mLine IS = null. So can you now see why the following line of code would cause problems?
String []data = mLine.split("\t");How is the data stored in your file? Is it a single line with the three values separated by a tab? If so you can do away with the while loop and just call readLine() once. Otherwise you will have to process each line you read inside the while loop.
P.S. use the code button when posting code. There is a button above the textfield when use post a reply.

What I wanna do is to read all the data above and buffer them in a queue for each user( there are only 10 users in total).
I already created a class called Class packet:
public class packet {
    private int timestamp;
    private int user_id;
    private int packet_id;
    private int packet_seqno;
    private int packet_size;
    /** Creates a new instance of packet */
    public packet(int timestamp,int user_id, int packet_id,int packet_seqno, int packet_size)
        this.timestamp = timestamp;
        this.user_id=user_id;
        this.packet_id=packet_id;
        this.packet_seqno=packet_seqno;
        this.packet_size=packet_size;
}then I wanna to create another Class called Class user which I can create a queue for each user (10 users in total) to store type packet information. the queue for each user will be in the order by timestamp.
any idea and sample code will be appreciated.

Doesn't sound too hard to me. Your class User (the convention says to capitalize class names) will have an ArrayList or Vector in it to represent the queue, and a method to store a Packet object into the List. An array or ArrayList or Vector will hold the 10 user objects. You will find the right user object from packet.user_id and call the method.
Please try to write some code yourself. You won't learn anything from having someone else write it for you. Look at sample code using ArrayList and Vector, there's plenty out there. Post in the forum again if your code turns out not to behave.

Please recommend if we have options to read xml file and insert data into table without a temporary table.

Is it possible in AS3 to load an excel .csv file into Flash using the URLLoader (or ???) and the data as variables?
I can get the .csv to load and trace the values (cell1,cell2,cell3....) but I'm not sure how to collect the data and place it into variables.
Can I just create an array and access it like so.... myArray[0], myArray[1]? If so, I'm not sure why it's not working.
I must be on the completely wrong path. Here's what I have so far....
var loader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.VARIABLES;
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, dataLoaded);
var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("population.csv");
loader.load(request);
function dataLoaded(evt:Event):void {
var myData:Array = new Array(loader.data);
trace(myData[i]);
Thanks for any help,
Sky

just load your csv file and use the flash string methods to allocate those values to an array:
var myDate:Array = loader.data.split(",");

Loop through a csv file and return the number of rows in it?

What would be simplest way to loop through a csv file and
return the number of rows in it?
<cffile action="read" file="#filename#" output="#csvstr#"
>
<LOOP THROUGH AND COUNT ROWS>

ListLen(). Use chr(13) as your delimiter

To retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the doc in PM order

Hello guys,
I have a challenging task in from printing as follows,
By using TC: IW3D we get print preview of PM Order Set (PM Print Program: YIPRJT01), currently the PRT document number prints in the PM Order. Now we have to insert the PRT documents (a PDF file) into the PM Order set rather than printing the PRT document number ( By using TC: IW33 by going OPERTIONAL TAB we will get the PRT document(a PDF file))
The requirement is to retrieve the PRT document (a PDF file) and insert the document in PM order set with out navigating separately by using the TC: IW33.
If you run the script in the print preview we can able to see PM the order set along with the PRT document (a PDF file).
Thanks & Regards
Vishnu

I'm also trying to print PRT document with shop papers and still not able to do so. I selected "P" for print on the control key and it should print but still didn't print.
If I understand it right, I think you are trying to do the same.
Have you resolved this issue ?
Thank you,
Sam
