SQL*LOADER how to load blanks when data is null

I need to load data which contains null values into a table which cannot contains nulls. How can I tell SQL*LOADER to load blanks in a column when the input data is nulls?

I think something like this in your control file should work:
col1 char(10) nvl(col1,' ')

  • SQL*Loader: How to load multi-line report data?

    Hi,
    is it possible to use SQL*Loader to load data from a hierarchical structured fixed column ASCII file like this
    001 scott
    New York 01.01.2002 1234
    Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
    002 smith
    Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
    Washington 01.12.1999 0000
    Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
    into one database table:
    id name city day code
    001 scott New York 01.01.2002 1234
    001 scott Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
    002 smith Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
    002 smith Washington 01.12.1999 0000
    002 smith Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
    The number of lines per name is unlimited, the next line starts after a separating ---- line.
    We cannot change the format of the text file to import.
    There is an example in the documentation that shows how to load a structure like the following via insert triggers:
    001 scott New York 01.01.2002 1234
    Chicago 15.10.2001 9876
    002 smith Los Angeles 24.12.1999 5678
    Washington 01.12.1999 0000
    Chicago 01.01.2000 1111
    But we have the name information on a separate header line, so I don't know if we can use a similar technique here.
    regards
    Sven

    Try enclosing your strings with e.g. a double-quote. To do so, the control file needs the following (example):
    LOAD DATA
    REPLACE
    INTO TABLE test          
    FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
    TRAILING NULLCOLS
    id1,
    id2,
    id3,
    id4,
    )of course this does mean that your data must change...

  • SQL LOADER: how to load CLOB column using stored function

    Hi,
    I am a newbie of sql loader. Everything seems to be fine until I hit a
    road block - the CLOB column type. I want to load data into the clob
    column using a stored function. I need to do some manipulation on the
    data before it gets saved to that column. But I got this error when I
    run the sql loader.
    SQL*Loader-309: No SQL string allowed as part of "DATA" field
    specification
    DATA is my CLOB type column.
    here is the content of the control file:
    LOAD DATA
    INFILE 'test.csv'
    BADFILE 'test.bad'
    DISCARDFILE 'test.dsc'
    REPLACE
    INTO TABLE test_table

    Checkstamp     "to_date(:CHECKSTAMP, 'mm/dd/yyyy')",
    "DATA"          "GetContent(:codeid, :reason)"
    All references are suggesting to use a file to load data on
    CLOB column but I want to use a function in which it generates
    the content to be saved into the column.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • SQL Loader: How to load binary files

    Hi All,
    I need to load a binary file into the database (BLOB) using SQL Loader. What I have are only two files. The first file is an attributes file that contains the file names, the file sizes, the file descriptions, etc. The second file is a binary file that contains ALL the files described in the attributes file. They are concatenated in the same order that the attributes file names them.
    This data load is different from any other that I've encountered before because I am familiar with loads that have separate files.
    I'm sorry if this is not the right board to post this question, but I'd greatly appreciate any help.

  • How to UNLOCK  queues when data is migrated from legacy system to SAP syste

    Hi  All,
    I need some help regarding queues (SMQ2). XI is been used to migrate data from legacy system to SAP system. Sometimes the queue is getting locked. Once the queue is unlocked then the message is processed correctly. So, the incoming queues must be "unlocked" routinely so that they can process through the system. There is a standard report RSQIWKEX available that can be scheduled in SAP system to automatically unlock the queues. Before using the standard report RSDIWKEX, we made sure that we have added parameter MONITOR QRFC_RESTART_ALLOWED set to "1" in Integration Engine specific configuration (TCODE SXMB_ADM).We are unable to analyze the reason for locking of queues and how to avoid it. If the locking of the queues can not be avoided, is there any way to unlock the queues? We tried executing this report but were not successful in unlocking the queues. Please guide us in solving this issue. It would be really helpful if you can give us a direction in solving this problem.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Shwetha.

    Hi,
    Just check if the Queues are registered in Transaction SMQR.
    If its not, then register the Queue by pressing 'Register' Button

  • How to update row when data contains single quote  ?

    Hi,
    Please see this query:
    update query_tab set  title='It's common knowledg' where
    id='1121';I have this update query coming from .NET, but abviously this is error since single quote in the text (title column) given by user gives wrong meaning to sql parser. So, how to solve this problem ?
    Edited by: bootstrap on Dec 25, 2010 9:53 AM

    Hi,
    To include a single-quote in a string literal, use two of them in a row:
    update      query_tab
    set       title     = 'It''s common knowledge'
    where      id     = '1121';The method above works in any version of Oracle.
    Starting in Oracle 10, you can also use Q-notation, like this:
    update      query_tab
    set       title     = Q'[It's common knowledge]'
    where      id     = '1121';For details, look up "Text Literals" in the SQL Language manual:

  • In SQL server, how can I pass a date and return on any specific day of the week (e.g. Sunday/Monday/Wednesday, etc.)

    In SQL server, I want to be able to have a function to return the date of any specific day of the week by passing two parameters. E.g.:
    parameter 1: a selected date (e.g. 8/3/2013)
    parameter 2: any specific day of the week (e.g. Wednesday)
    result: should be 7/31/2013 (8/3/2013 is a Sunday in the week 7/28 - 8/3, so the Wednesday should be 7/31/2013)
    then if I want to get Saturday of that week, I can simply change the second parameter to 'Saturday'

    Then, i have placed elements of RFCNAME_Input->Output->Lt_org_unit node to an arraylist.
    After this i am not able to proceed.
    I would be very greatful to you if you can spare some time & help me.
