SEEKING: Simple searchable content or database from XLS file

I have a client I am creating a site for on BC (eMarketing Plan) who has a simple xls/asp driven database. They do not wish to upgrade to eCommerce - too much of a price jump for the WebApp feature.
Basically, it would be a searchable list with roughly three categories. I thought of a custom search, but it would be a bugger to create a page for each entry.
Is there a simple solution that could be used within the eMarketing plan to do what I am in need of? Something that might bring in the xls information and have it be searchable with a result?

First thing to remember is that if you host the CSV file anyone could potentially download the entire thing so you'll have to make sure there are no privacy issues with that.
You'll need something like this Papa Parse - Powerful CSV Parser for JavaScript it will load the CSV into something that is *more easily* searchable with JavaScript. Keeping costs down I would assume your search would be a "from start to finish" type as you could have mulitple records, and sorting will start to get expensive so you might want to order the CSV initally by date or name or something like that.
There are with liquid other ways to do this with BC and JSON but I think the above solution might be easier to implement if you just want an export -> upload type of system.

  • BAPI - DATA TRANSFER FROM .XLS FILE TO DB TABLE

  • Time from .xls file is divided

    Hello I,m new with LabVIEW 10 and i have a problem with reading time from .xls file with the read excel values.vi. 
    In excel the time format is  00:00:20     but in LabVIEW (with Strings) i get (i think) a divided result 0,000231481481481481 for 00:00:20 and so on.

    That VI returns the value of the cell, not the formatted string. The issue with time values between Excel and LabVIEW has been brought up numerous times before. Excel does not use the same datetime starting point as LabVIEW. See, for example, this discussion: http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Read-custom-excel-time-data-in-LabView/m-p/775359

  • Building Database from .dbf files

    Hello All,
    I had to reinstall oracle software. But I have all the data\control\log files from previous installation.
    So my question is, Can I rebuild my database from those files? If so, how?
    All the installation directories are same as before. I don't know if this helps but just wanted to provide as much info as possible.
    Thanks,
    Satish

    All your tablespace, user, grants, etc. information is stored within the system datafile, so if you install the Oracle server, then manually recreate the directory structure from your previous database (for example on NT, you'd create d:\oracle\oradata\your_sid\*.dbf
    d:\oracle\admin\your_sid\pfile | bdump | etc...) then put the datafiles in the location where the control files says they should be, and your pfile points to the correct control files then it will be OK.
    Your pfile will contain the location(s) of your control files. When you nomount the database, the instance will start and the pfile will find the location/locate the control file (this is why you recreate the control file in nomount mode); then when you mount the database, the control files are actually opened and read so the instance can locate the datafiles, identify the tablespaces, etc (this is why you have to put the control files in the location(s) specified in the pfile and datafiles, etc. back in the location specified in the control file). Then opening the database just basically validates everything and opens for use. As long as you don't specify SIZE or REUSE for the datafiles in the control file, and comment out everything after the CHARACTER SET listed in the control file and you still have the datafiles that contain data, you won't need anything like an import. You may need media recovery of some sort or experiment with incomplete recovery (if files are available) and open with resetlogs; but normally if you have an OracleService and you have a pfile, control files, and datafiles, everything will be there (user info and all is stored in the system datafile).
    Hope this helps answer some of your questions. Anyway - you can try it and if it fails, you can always start over as long as you have a backup copy of your datafiles and controlfiles and pfile.

    UTL_FILE
    With the UTL_FILE package, your PL/SQL programs can read and write operating system text files. UTL_FILE provides a restricted version of operating system stream file I/O.
    UTL_FILE I/O capabilities are similar to standard operating system stream file I/O (OPEN, GET, PUT, CLOSE) capabilities, but with some limitations. For example, you call the FOPEN function to return a file handle, which you use in subsequent calls to GET_LINE or PUT to perform stream I/O to a file. When file I/O is done, you call FCLOSE to complete any output and free resources associated with the file.

  • Load from xls file

    Does anyone know a way to extract data from an xls file to load into the database WITHOUT someone having to open it in excel and convert to a csv ?

    Here's something that was posted on a previous thread that allows you to set up the excel workbook as an external datasource....
    1- Go to Control Panel>Administrative Tools>Data Sources (ODBC)>System DSN and create a data source with appropriate driver. Name it EXCL.
    2- In %ORACLE_HOME%\Network\Admin\Tnsnames.ora fie add entry:
    MSACC =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.12.0.24)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = EXCL)
    (HS = OK)
    Here SID is the name of data source that you have just created.
    3- In %ORACLE_HOME%\Network\Admin\Listener.ora file add:
    (SID_DESC =
    (PROGRAM = hsodbc)
    (SID_NAME = <hs_sid>)
    (ORACLE_HOME = <oracle home>)
    under SID_LIST_LISTENER like:
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = d:\ORA9DB)
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    (SID_DESC =
    (GLOBAL_DBNAME = ORA9DB)
    (ORACLE_HOME = d:\ORA9DB)
    (SID_NAME = ORA9DB)
    (SID_DESC =
    (PROGRAM = hsodbc)
    (SID_NAME = EXCL)
    (ORACLE_HOME = D:\ora9db)
    4- In %ORACLE_HOME%\hs\admin create init<HS_SID>.ora. For our sid EXCL we create file initexcl.ora.
    In this file set following two parameters:
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = excl
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = 0
    5- Now connect to Oracle database and create database link with following command:
    SQL> CREATE DATABASE LINK excl
    2 USING 'excl'
    3 /
    Database link created.
    Now you can perform query against this database like you would for any remote database.
    SQL> SELECT table_name FROM all_tables@excl;
    TABLE_NAME
    DEPT
    EMPI've tried it and it works, although your data has to be in a flat(ish) format with the first row on each sheet being the column headings.
    ;)

  • Create the database from Binary files

    Edited by: R VENKAT on Nov 4, 2008 4:15 PM

    Hi Venkat,
    I think this isn't the best forum to answer your question but I'll try.
    You've lost your DATABASE FILES (means DBF files, control files (CTL), redo logs)? Correct?
    Or did you loose also the Oracle Home where the software has been installed?
    If you've lost your Oracle installation than you might do the following:
    1) Install 8.1.7.0 software on your standby server
    2) Install patch set 8.1.7 4 into this home
    3) Metalink-Note:70233.1 will describe the full process of creating an 8i standby database from your PROD.
    If you use RMAN than please have a look into Metalink-Note:203980.1 and Note:118409.1 - it'll describe also the init.ora parameters necessary for a standby
    You'll find a description of an ideal init.ora for the standby in ML Note:139809.1 and specific for Data Guard 8i here: ML-Note:132991.1
    Kind regards

  • Read from xls file and put it in a table

    as Gasparotto said, copy the csv file to the database server.
    create a directory object on the database.
    create directory dir_temp as 'e:\mydir'
    grant read, write on directory dir_Temp to <user>
    and then map this csv file to the external table using the below syntax.
    CREATE TABLE tab_hierarchy
    node_id          NUMBER,
    parent_id     NUMBER,
    description      VARCHAR2(255)
    ORGANIZATIOn EXTERNAL
         TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
         DEFAULT DIRECTORY dir_temp
         ACCESS PARAMETERS
         records delimited by newline
         fields terminated by ','
         (node_id,parent_id,description)
         LOCATION ('tree.csv')
    PARALLEL
    REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED;in the above code, replace the filename under the LOCATION with your csv file name.
    now you should be just able to do select on this table and insert to the other main tbale.

  • Xnet database from txt file

    I have a CAN database in a .txt format.  I used access and excel to map it to a .xml file.  When I try to add it to the NI-XNET Database Editor in the Manage NI-XNET databases and add alias  it give me the error: x BFF63081.  How can I take a .txt file database and convert it to a NI-XNET database?

    I think the common formats that XNET support are CANdb and FIBEX files (amongst others...e.g. for Flexray). I think FIBEX is the name. A CANdb file is essentially just a text file so maybe you can parse out the messages fairly easily that way. FIBEX files are the file format that LabVIEW creates when you edit/create an XNET database from their user interface.
    If you don't want to use either of those formats, then you need to parse the text file in LabVIEW and use it to manually create the XNET signals/database. You can create a :memory: database, populate it with a cluster and then populate that with signals using data from your text file.
    In the LabVIEW examples under Hardware Input and Output >> CAN >> NI-XNET >> Databases are some examples of manipulating an XNET database so that should point you in the right direction of which VIs you need to use.

  • Re-build Database from .DBF Files

    I have the set of .dbf files which Veritas backed up daily in my production environment. Can any body tell me the steps how I can rebuild my database from these .dbf files.

    ii)ISACCTB_01.DBF
    iii)RBS1ACCT.DBF

    suppose the db name is ACCT.
    I'm gettign the following error while restoring.
    ORA-01589: must use RESETLOGS or NORESETLOGS option for database open

    It's seem like you have one backupfile and rest of all are data files.the next thing you mention here that you are unable to open the database.It seems to me that you perform incomptele recovery, which forcing you to open the database in noresetlogs.the workaround of this is..
    sql > alter database open resetlogs ;
    You can also restore ctlfile from your backupset if it is available and then perform recovery if all the datafiles are intact in their place.

  • Populate the database from a file

    Hi guys,
    I have to populate an Oracle database using a java standalone application. The application gets the data from a file and copies them into the database. I don't know how to structure the entire thing and in which layer (view or model) i have to implement this functionality.
    thank's a lot,
    christian

    either you configure FOP to use a SAX Parser that supports Cp1251 or you encode your XML data to UTF-8.
    we flawlessly generate Greek PDF documents out of data selected from Oracle 8.1 by using UTF-8.

    Hi All,

    For Ex: Both PROD and DEV boxes are having "A" database. Now I am refreshing database"A" from PROD bot to DEV box with name "B". Now while restoring in SQL server 2012 I used GUI and took database name as "A" by default.
    by mistake I executed the request. before completing I notice that "A" database in DEV Box went to restoring mode.
    Now, in middle I stopped the query but still I am seeing database "A" is in restoring state.
    Please guide me is there any way to bring database online with current data?

  • Uploading data from xls file to internal table

    Hello,
         I have an excel file with just one column that has phone numbers. I want to upload these phone numbers into an internal table.
        Now my question is: What is the method/function to do this? I tried GUI_UPLOAD but after upload the values in the internal table shows lots of # signs instead of the expected phone numbers.
    Regards,
    Prafful.

    Hello Prafful,
    If you successed to upload XLS into Internal Table and the only problem you have is a # signs try to the following:
    1) instead of the XLS file try to use CSV file (it's a TEXT file - C omma S eperated V alues).
    2) Check your Encoding (your FILE Encoding should be a same as GUI_UPLOAD encoding)
    Good Luck
