Read Excel from sap server HDD

I want to read xls from path wich I see by FM RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL (server space) and how to read xls format to itab from this path?
ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE work only on local HDD (not server space)

Hi,
You need to use the OPEN DATASET and READ DATASET statements.
Here is a sample, This program will upload a comma delimited file from app server, and break it up into specific fields of an ITAB.
report ztest_0001
no standard page heading.
parameters: d1 type localfile default '/usr/sap/TST/SYS/Data1.csv'.
data: begin of itab occurs 0,
fld1(20) type c,
fld2(20) type c,
fld3(20) type c,
end of itab.
data: wa(2000) type c.
start-of-selection.
open dataset d1 for input in text mode.
if sy-subrc = 0.
do.
read dataset d1 into wa.
if sy-subrc 0.
exit.
endif.
split wa at ',' into itab-fld1 itab-fld2 itab-fld3.
append itab.
enddo.
endif.
close dataset d1.

Restrictions in Oracle Server (table size, record count ...)

Hello,
can somebody tell me if there are any restrictions of table size, record count, file size (apart from operation system restrictions) in Oracle 8.1.7 and 7.3.4?
Or where can i find information? I couldn4t find anything in the generic documentation.
Thank you in advance,

Hello,
if you are executing a DBMS_AQ.DEQUEUE and then perform a rollback in your code the counter RETRY_COUNT will not go up by 1.
You are only reversing your own AQ action. This counter will be used only internally to log unsuccessful dequeue actions.

Error while reading excel file from application server into internal table.

Hi experts,
My requirement is to read an excel file from application server into internal table.
Hence I have created an excel file fm_test_excel.xls in desktop and uploaded to app server using CG3Z tcode (as BIN file type).
Now in my program I have used :
OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
DO.
READ DATASET v_filename INTO wa_tab.
The statement OPEN DATASET works fine but I get a dump (conversion code page error) at READ DATASET statement.
Error details:
A character set conversion is not possible.
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
The running ABAP program 'Y_READ_FILE' had to be terminated as the conversion
would have produced incorrect data.
The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
be converted), is 445. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
mentioned above, has occurred.
An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not
caught and
therefore caused a runtime error.
The reason for the exception is:
Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
conversion error occurs.
Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
'4110' or '4103' is not known to the system.
If the conversion error occurred at read or write of screen, the file
name was '/usr/sap/read_files/fm_test_excel.xls'. (further information about
the file: "X 549 16896rw-rw----201105170908082011051707480320110517074803")
Also let me know whether this is the proper way of reading excel file from app server, if not please suggest an alternative .
Regards,
Karthik

Hi,
Try to use OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN BINARY mode encoding default. instead of OPEN DATASET v_filename FOR INPUT IN text mode encoding default.
As I think you are uploading the file in BIN format to Application server and trying to open text file.

ORA-02070: Error when updating a SQL Server table thru an Oracle View

I have a SQL Server table TIMESHEET which contains a number of VARCHAR and NUMERIC columns plus a DATETIME column.
Only the DATETIME column is giving me trouble.
On the ORACLE side I have a view which selects from the SQL Server table but in order to get the SELECT to work, I had to either put a CAST or TO_DATE function call around the DATETIME field
Below is the relevant part of the 2 view definitions I have tried
create view TIMESHEET as
SELECT
"TsKeySeq" as TS_KEY_SEQ,
"EmployeeNo" as EMPLOYEE_NO,
CAST("PeriodEnding" AS DATE) as PERIOD_ENDING,
. . . (more columns - not relevant)
FROM [email protected];
An update to the view generates this message
ORA-02070: database OLEMSQLPSANTDAS6 does not support CAST in this context
create view TIMESHEET as
SELECT
"TsKeySeq" as TS_KEY_SEQ,
"EmployeeNo" as EMPLOYEE_NO,
TO_DATE("PeriodEnding") as PERIOD_ENDING,
. . . (more columns - not relevant)
FROM [email protected];
An update to the view generates this message
ORA-02070: database OLEMSQLPSANTDAS6 does not support TO_DATE in this context
If I don't include either the TO_DATE() or CAST() then I get
Select Error: ORA-28527: Heterogeneous Services datatype mapping error
ORA-02063:preceding line from OLEMSQLSANTDAS6
Does anyone have any idea how to update a SQL Server DATETIME column thru an ORACLE view?

You can't cast accross heterogenious databases and there is no need to. HSODBC treats SQL Server DATETIME column as DATE. For example, I have SQL Server table:
CREATE TABLE [Ops].[T_JobType](
     [JobType] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,
     [JobDesc] [varchar](200) NULL,
     [InsertDt] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [InsertDt_00000006] DEFAULT (getdate()),
     [InsertBy] [varchar](128) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [InsertBy_00000006] DEFAULT (user_name()),
     [LastUpdated] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [LastUpdated_00000006] DEFAULT (getdate()),
     [LastUpdatedBy] [varchar](128) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [LastUpdatedBy_00000006] DEFAULT (user_name()),
CONSTRAINT [T_JobType_PK] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
     [JobType] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON, FILLFACTOR = 100) ON [DATA01FG]
) ON [DATA01FG]Now on Oracle side I do:
SQL> desc "Ops"."T_JobType"@pbods
Name                                      Null?    Type
JobType                                   NOT NULL VARCHAR2(50)
JobDesc                                            VARCHAR2(200)
InsertDt                                  NOT NULL DATE
InsertBy                                  NOT NULL VARCHAR2(128)
LastUpdated                               NOT NULL DATE
LastUpdatedBy                             NOT NULL VARCHAR2(128)

Export SQL Server Table into Multiple Sheets in Excel

I'm trying to understand the example here.
http://visakhm.blogspot.in/2013/09/exporting-sqlserver-data-to-multiple.html
Basically, I'm up to step #5.
5. Data Flow Task to populate the created sheet with data for that subject. The Data Flow looks like below
I don't understand this part. Has anyone worked with this sample before? Has anyone gotten this to work? I'm trying to learn SSIS better, but I'm finding it hard to get started with this stuff. I guess if I get a couple projects under
my belt, I'll be fine. The hardest part is getting started.
If anyone feels really ambitions today, maybe you can assist me with two other projects as well.

I'd greatly appreciate any help I can get with this.
Thanks!!
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.

Hi Ryguy72,
The solution introduced in Visakh’s blog does work. I have written the detailed steps for you:
1. Create an Excel file (Des.xls) as the destination file, rename the Sheet1 to “Excel Destination”, and add four columns: ID, Name, Subject, and Marks.
2. Create an Object type variable Subject, a String type variable SheetName, and a String type variable WorkSheetQuery.
3. Set the value of variable SheetName to “Excel Destination$”, and set the expression of variable WorkSheetQuery to:
"CREATE TABLE `" + @[User::SheetName] + "` (
`ID` Long,
`Name` LongText,
`Subject` LongText,
`Marks` Long
4. In the Execute SQL Task outside the Foreach Loop Container, set its General tab as follows:
ResultSet: Full result set
ConnectionType: OLE DB
Connection: LocalHost.TestDB (e.g. an OLE DB Connection to the source SQL Server table)
SQLSourceType: Direct input
SQLStatement: SELECT DISTINCT [Subject] FROM [TestDB].[dbo].[DynamicExcelSheetDemo]
5. In the Result Set tab of this Execute SQL Task, map result “0” to variable “User::Subject”.
6. In the Collection page of the Foreach Loop Container, set the Enumerator option to “Foreach ADO Enumerator”, and set the “ADO object source variable” to “User::Subject”.
7. In the Variable Mapping page of the container, map variable “User::SheetName” to index “0”.
8. Create an OLE DB Connection Manager to connect to the destination Excel file. Choose the provider as Native OLE DB\Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider, specify the fully qualified path of the Excel file (such as C:\Temp\Des.xls), and set the Extended Properties
option of the Connection Manager to “Excel 8.0”. Click “Test Connection” button to make sure the connection is established successfully.
9. Set the General page of the Execute SQL Task inside the container as follows:
ResultSet: None
ConnectionType: OLE DB
Connection: Des (e.g. the OLE DB Connection to the destination Excel file we create above)
SQLSourceType: Variable
SQLStatement: User::WorkSheetQuery
10. In the Data Flow Task, add an OLE DB Source component, set the connection manager to “LocalHost.TestDB”, set “Data access mode” to “SQL command”, and set the “SQL command text” to:
SELECT * FROM [TestDB].[dbo].[DynamicExcelSheetDemo] WHERE [Subject]=?
11. Click the “Parameters…” button, and map Parameter0 to variable “User::SheetName”.
12. Add an Excel Destination component, setup an Excel Connection Manager to the destination Excel file, set the data access mode to “Table name or view name variable”, and select variable name as “User::SheetName”. In this way, the OLE DB Provider can get
the Excel metadata and enable us to finish the column mappings correctly.
13. Since the Microsoft Jet 4.0 has only 32-bit driver, please make sure to set the Run64BitRuntime property of the IS project to False.
In addition, please note that there will be one useless worksheets “Excel Destination” in the Excel file. We can remove them manually or use a Script Task to delete this worksheet programmatically (need to install .NET Programmability Support feature during
Office installing).

Reading milliseconds from Sql server into oracle 10g

Hi,
We have a very time sensitive pressing requirements to be addressed immediately.
We need to read the date time column from sql server 2008 into oracle 10g.
We have a dblink established between the two servers and have tried to use sql server and sql native client 10 driver to read the dates from sql into oracle.This we are able to do very successfully.
The issue is in reading milliseconds stored in sql server.The millisecond part comes in as 00000 from sqlserver to oracle.These milliseconds are needed to identlfy the unique records.
For instance
SQL SERVER Oracle
source_id source id
01/01/2012 6:30:35:456 01/01/2012 6:30:35:000000.
Im issuing my query through Toad via Oracle to remote sql server using a dblink which connects using HS ODBC connection to sql server 2008(remote).
We have no control over sql server Db as this is remote third party DB.We just have select access to their tables to bring into our own oracle DB.
Any insight or help will be much appreciated.

Hi,
Could you please send the following information -
- what version of HSODBC are you using ? Is it a 10.2 version ?
- what is the SQL*Server datatype of the column you are reading ?
- from Oracle could you issue -
describe sql_server_table@hsodbc
- what is the Oracle datatype shown for the column ?
Could you also run your tests using SQLPLUS instead of TOAD ? We don't support TOAD and need to know if the problem also happens when using SQLPLUS, to avoid it being a TOAD problem.
Also, 10.2 HSODBC is now desupported and you should be using the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) which is a direct replacement for HSODBC. To use DG4ODBC your RDBMS needs to be at 10.2.0.4 or higher and DG4ODBC should be installed in a completely separate ORACLE_HOME from the existing 10.2 install.

Mike

Reading BLOB from SQL Server 2005 using DB Link from Oracle 10g

Hi All,
I am trying to read a table's data from SQL Server 2005 using ODBC DB Link created in Oracle 10g (10.2.0.3/4) database. I am not using oracle gateway.
I am able read all data except for the BLOB data from SQL server 2005. It gives error given below when I try to execute query SELECT * from T_TRANSACTION_DATA@sdeslink inside a stored procedure:
ORA-22992: cannot use LOB locators selected from remote tables
Kindly help how to read BLOB from SQL server 2005 inside Oracle 10g.
Best Regards!
Irfan

Irfan,
If you can read the blob data using 10.2 HSODBC then there should be no problem using the 11g gateway.
I recommend you download the latest version which is 11.2.0.3 available from My oracle Support as -
Patch 10404530: 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
This is a full version and does not need a previous version to have bene installed. When installing it needs to be in a completlely separate ORACLE_HOME from the existing 11.2 install.
For the Ora-22992 problem have a look at this note in My Oracle Support -
Ora-22992 has a workaround in 10gR2 (Doc ID 436707.1)

Mike

How i can load excel sheet into a table in oracle through pl/sql procedure

Hi,
How i can load excel sheet into a table in oracle through pl/sql procedure or a pl/sql block. Excel sheet is saved on my c or d drive on my machine. In xls format.

Depending on how big your spreadsheet is and how frequently you want to do this you might want to contruct insert statements in excel, then run these. I have done this to load a few hundred rows for a one off test on dev.
e.g. if you have values 1 and 'a' in you spread sheet and want to insert them in to table xxx col1 & 2:
| /|   A   |   B   |    C
|1 |col1   |col2   |
|2 |      1|a      |="insert into xxx ("&$A$1&","&B1&") values ("&A2&",'"&B2&"');"then paste the contents of colum C
insert into xxx (col1,col2) values (1,'a');into sqlplus or a script.

Oracle equivalent to SQL Server Table Variables ?

Does Oracle have anything equivalent to SQL Server table variables, that can be used in the JOIN clause of a select statement ?
What I want to do is execute a query to retrieve a two-column result, into some form of temporary storage (a collection ?), and then re-use that common data in many other queries inside a PL/SQL block. I could use temporary tables, but I'd like to avoid having to create new tables in the database, if possible. If I was doing this in SQL Server, I could use a table variable to do this, but is there anything similar in Oracle ? SQL Server example:
use Northwind
DECLARE @myVar TABLE(CustomerID nchar(5), CompanyName nvarchar(40))
INSERT INTO @myVar(CustomerID, CompanyName)
select CustomerID, CompanyName
from Customers
--Join the variable onto a table in the database
SELECT *
FROM @myVar mv join Customers
on mv.CompanyName = Customers.CompanyName
The closest I've found in Oracle is to use CREATE TYPE to create new types in the database, and use TABLE and CAST to convert the collection to a table, as shown below. I can't see anyway without creating new types in the database.
CREATE TYPE IDMap_obj AS Object(OldID number(15), NewID number(15));
CREATE TYPE IDMap_TAB IS TABLE OF IDMap_obj;
DECLARE
v_Count Number(10) := 0;
--Initialize empty collection
SourceIDMap IDMap_TAB := IDMap_TAB();
BEGIN
--Populate our SourceIDMap variable (dummy select statement for now).
FOR cur_row IN (select ID As OldID, ID + 10000000 As NewID From SomeTable) LOOP
SourceIDMap.extend;
SourceIDMap(SourceIDMap.Last) := IDMap_obj(cur_row.OldId, cur_row.NewId);
END LOOP;
--Print out contents of collection
FOR cur_row IN 1 .. SourceIDMap.Count LOOP
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(SourceIDMap(cur_row).OldId || ' ' || SourceIDMap(cur_row).NewId);
END LOOP;
--OK, can we now use our collection in a JOIN statement ?
SELECT COUNT(SM.NewID)
INTO v_Count
FROM SomeTable ST JOIN
TABLE(CAST(SourceIDMap As IDMap_TAB)) SM
ON ST.ID = SM.OldID;
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line(' ' );
DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line('v_Count is ' || v_Count);
END;

Hi, got this from our plsql guys:
The term "table function" is a bit confusing here. In Oracle-speak, it means a function that can be used in the from list of a select statement thus:
select * from Table(My_Table_Function()),..
where...
The function's return type must be a collection that SQL understands. So for the interesting case -- mimicking a function with more than one column -- this would be a nested table of ADTs where both the ADT and the nested table are defined at schema level. PL/SQL -- by virtue of some clever footwork -- allows you to declare the type as a nested table of records where both these types are declared in a package spec. This alternative is generally preferred, especially because the nested table can be of Some_Table%rowtype (or Some_Cursor%rowtype if you prefer).
As I understand it from our man on the ANSI committee, our use terminology follows the standard.
The construct below seems to be a bit different (though there are similarities) because it appears from your code sample that it's usable only within procedural code. And the object from which you select is a variable rather than a function.
So, after that preamble... the answer would be:
No, we don't have any constructs to let you "declare" something that looks like a regular schema-level table as a PL/SQL variable -- and then use (static) SQL on it just as if it were a schema-level table.
But yes, you can use PL/SQL's pipelined table function to achieve much of the same effect.
Look at the attached Table_Function.sql.
It shows that you can populate a collection of records using ordinary PL/SQL code. You can't use SQL for insert, update, or delete on such a collection. I see that SQL Server lets you do
insert into Program_Variable_Table select... from Schema_Level_Table
The PL/SQL equivalent would be
select...
bulk collect into Program_Variable_Collection
from Schema_Level_Table
The attached shows that once you have populated your collection, then you can then query it with regular SQL -- both from inside PL/SQL code and from naked SQL.
and the code is here
CONNECT System/p
-- Drop and re-create "ordinary" user Usr
EXECUTE d.u
CONNECT Usr/p
create table Schema_Things(ID number, Description Varchar2(80))
