Insert data into a database table from a string

Hi,
I am need to insert data into a table from the text file. I pull the data into an internal table using GUI_UPLoad. I read the data into an internal table and concatenate data into a string. I need to do this because the structure of the table is dynamic. it is used to upload a series of tables each with different structure, But the data is stored in the string v_tabledata. How to do that.
after uploading the data from the textt file into a table
oop at i_final.
v_tabname = i_final-table_name.
concatenate i_final-table_rec1 i_final-table_rec2 i_final-table_rec3
i_final-table_rec4 i_final-table_rec5 into v_tabledata.
from 'v_table data' i need to upload the data into a table and the structue of the table is known dynamically. Any thoughts using field symbols?
Thanks,
VG

Let me see if I've understood your issue
You have a file to be uploaded into an internal table but this file has many different layouts and then you don't know how to link these fields with the internal table...is it your issue?
Then you've read the internal table, you've sent it to a string divided by space or something else and then are you trying to read this string to send it to a table?
We could read the standard tables which maintain the program names, table names etc... (DD* tables, as the DD03L table) and then create some rules...
We could create a parameter table to read your file/table dynamically...
Please, try to rewrite in other words your problem...because there are a lot of ways to achieve your issue...

Sql* Loader syntax to load data into a partitioned table

Hi All,
I was trying to load data from a csv file to a partitioned table.
The table name is countries_info
columns :
country_code ,
country_name,
country_language
The column country_code is list partitioned with partition p1 for values 'EN','DE','IN' etc
and partition p2 for 'KR','AR','IT' etc.
I tried to load data into this table, but I was getting some error Message (not mapping to partitioned key).
I tried syntax
load data
infile 'countries.csv'
append
into table countries_info
partition(p1) ,
partition(p2)
fields terminated by ','
country_code ,
country_name,
country_language
What is the correct syntax- I searched a lot but have not been able to find out.

In your case, although you didn't specifiy the exact ORA you recived, it sounds like [ORA-14400|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?threadID=&q=ORA-14400&objID=f61&dateRange=all&userID=&numResults=15&rankBy=10001]
What is the correct syntax- I searched a lot but have not been able to find out.It's not about correct syntax , it's about understanding message that was trying to tell you that something went wrong.
That message was (i guess) ORA-14400.
So, refering to that ORA message , you will need to add new partition ,
where the data from your csv file that currently don't map to any of the specified partition would fit ,
or add partition that would be able to accept data range in which value/s for which you received that ORA message could fit into.

data text type string.
IF data IS NOT INITIAL.
text = data->text.
ENDIF.
SPLIT text AT CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>CR_LF INTO

Importing data into an existing table from excel problem

Hopefully I am posting this in the right place..
I am having trouble importing data from Excel into an oracle table using the 'import data' wizard in SQL developer.
The problem is that the I want to import data into a table which all ready has data and I want the new data to be imported into the first row of the table not in a new row at the end of the table.
This is probably best shown by example:
create table todelete (
     site_no varchar2(2),
     data1 number,
     qa number);
insert into todelete values ('w1',1,null);
insert into todelete values ('w1',2, null);
insert into todelete values ('w1',3,null);
Now I want to import the following data from excel into the QA column starting at w1:
SITE_NO
QA
w1
4
w2
4
w3
4
However, when I import the QA column it goes into a new row:
SITE_NO
DATA1
QA
w1
1
NULL
w2
2
NULL
w3
3
NULL
NULL
NULL
4
NULL
NULL
4
NULL
NULL
4

The problem is that the I want to import data into a table which all ready has data and I want the new data to be imported into the first row of the table not in a new row at the end of the table.
No - the PROBLEM is that a table does NOT have a 'first' row or a 'row at the end of the table'.
Rows in a table are like balls in a basket; there is NO 'first' ball.
As already suggested please mark this thread ANSWERED and repost it in the sql developer forum where it belongs.

How to insert data into custom database table from an hcsf

i want to insert data into database table that i have created from an hcsf.
example :
say i have created a table in oracle database and i hav created a hcsf file.now i want that when somebody fills in that hcsf and click submit ,i want that entries should be updated in my database table.
plzzz reply ASAP(it's urgent)

you'll need a bit of Java code... extract the data during a check-in filter, and insert it into the database.
check out the "DataAccess" component in the HowToComponents for query-running examples, and the "DynamicPrefix" component for a check-in filter example.

Insert Data into a PK Table from a Non-PK Table

Suppose I have a Table A with 10 columns in Schema 1 and there are 100 records in it. Now I create a Table B with the same 10 columns but create 4 columns as Primary Key in another Schema 2. I want to Insert the data from Table A into Table B but the 100 rows of data have duplicate entries of Primary Key and so I get Primary Key constraint violation. I want to know whether I will be able to Insert data by a quey and if so how?

Tried to simulate ur scenario in my environment...check the insert statement...you can implement it to get ur solution.
Here it goes:
SQL> desc testt; <table u want to insert from,this has no pk>
Name Null? Type
DEPTNO NUMBER
JOB VARCHAR2(10)
SQL> desc testt_t;<table to be loaded,table with pk>
Name Null? Type
DEPTNO NOT NULL NUMBER
JOB VARCHAR2(10)
SQL> select * from testt;
DEPTNO JOB
10 aaa
11 bbb
12 ccc
10 aaa
11 bbb
12 ccc
10 aaa
7 rows selected.
SQL> select * from testt_t;
no rows selected
SQL> insert into testt_t (select t1.deptno,t1.job from testt t1 where t1.rowid =(select min(t2.rowid
) from testt t2 where t1.DEPTNO=t2.DEPTNO and t1.JOB=t2.job));
3 rows created.

Field-Symbols: How to retrieve data into an internal table from FS

Hello All,
I am working on field symbols.I have declared the field symbols as shown.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <gt_pos_data> TYPE table,
                           <wa_pos_data> like <gt_pos_data>.
Data: Begin of itab occurs 0,
           field1(5) type c,
           field2(10)_type c,
         end of itab.
The FS <gt_pos_data> has 100 fields but I need to move only two fields from this FS to my internal table itab.I am doing the following.
loop at <gt_pos_data> assigning <wa_pos_data>.
itab-field1 = <wa_pos_data>-field1.
itab-field2 = <wa_pos_data>-field2.
append itab.
clear itab.
endloop.
But it is giving me an error saying "<wa_pos_data> is a table without header line and therefore has no componet FIELD1".How to achieve this requirement?
Thanks in advance
Sandeep

<wa_pos_data> should be defined LIKE LINE OF <gt_pos_data>, but it will still have no structure, so you need to assign a field symbol to the component as well.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <gt_pos_data> TYPE table,
                           <wa_pos_data> like LINE OF <gt_pos_data>,
                           <field> type any.
Data: Begin of itab occurs 0,
field1(5) type c,
field2(10)_type c,
end of itab.
loop at <gt_pos_data> assigning <wa_pos_data>.
assign componet 'FIELD1' of structure <wa_pos_data> to <field>.
if sy-subrc = 0.
itab-field1 = <field>.
endif.
assign componet 'FIELD2' of structure <wa_pos_data> to <field>.
if sy-subrc = 0.
itab-field2 = <field>.
endif.
append itab.
clear itab.
endloop.

Import data into oracle from a text file?

hi guys,
How can we import data into oracle9i release 1 from a text file with comma seperated or tab seperated delimeters?
please help,
Imran

table is already created, just have to populate data into table through a dat or text file. As suggested, you would either:
1). use SQL*Loader to load the data into this table.
2). create external table on that data file and then do:
INSERT INTO your_real_table
SELECT * FROM that_external_table ;

How to read RMAN data into an ORACLE Table?

Hallo,
With regards to RMAN, how should we store the data into a database table, from the commands which can run only on RMAN prompt without using Recovery Catalog?
For Example:
RMAN> Report need backup days 3;
RMAN DATA:
RMAN-03022: compiling command: report
Report of files whose recovery needs more than 3 days of archived logs
File Days Name
1 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\SYSTEM01.DBF
2 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\RBS01.DBF
3 1203 D:\ORACLE\ORADATA\TEST\USERS01.DBF
Should it done via UTL_FILE?
If so, could someone give simple example/code how to do that, in order to write this RMAN data into an Oracle Database table?
I also set the utl_file_dir parameter to a particular directory in my database.
Thanks

Actually, I am not using Recovery Catalog, so the views like RC_database, Rc_tablespaces etc , which are specific to recovery catalog are not available.
r.- this make sense at 100% because those views belong to the recovery catalog.
So, I wanted that these information, which we can get via using the commands like above, transfer into an Oracle table
r.- If you want to access the views of the Recovery Catalog to store part of that information in tables you have to have the database registered in a Recovery Catalog.
Should we keep the Recovery Catalog in Control file? Instead of using separate Schema.
r.- I recommend you to create a catalog for your database because the space the controlfile to store information regarding RMAN is reused and you can lose important information about your backups.
Can we run Catrman.sql script as a sys in order to keep the recovery catalog in sys schema?
r.- As you know, this is not recommended at all.
Conclusion : Create a Recovery Catalog and you will be able to perform all that you want regardind what you mentioned above.
