The SQL statement is not valid - when importing data from SQL Server using a query

Hi there,
I am trying to import data from SQL to Power Pivot using a SQL query like below:
SELECT Score.FieldCount, Score.Record.GetAt(0), Score.Record.GetAt(1), Score.Record.GetAt(2), Score.Record.GetAt(3), Score.Record.GetAt(4)
FROM
SELECT * FROM dbo.CLR1(
dbo.CLR2('c:\FILES\Test.xml'),
'SELECT * FROM [dbo].[CXCustomer_Small]') Input
) Score
And when I tried to validate it, it returns
The SQL statement is not valid. A column name cannot be blank.
I ran the above SQL statement in Management Studio and it works without problem. Any idea?
Thanks!
Chu

Never mind, I figured out - I need to give each column a name.

Importing data from SQL Server

I'm relatively new to Oracle, and my question is about importing data. I have an SQL 2000 server and I export a database using Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle. The process finished OK but when I tried to query the tables qith SQL Plus Worksheet, I get a message saying:
select * from rwp_purge
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
but the table is there. I can see it using DBA Studio. So, what is happening? Do I have to commit transactions after importing data from SQL Server? Do I have to rebuild statistics?
thanks in advance,
Gonzalo Pellegrini

Was the table created in the schema you are loggin as when trying to access the table? If not, you will have to grant access to the table logged in as the table owner.

Using Oracle Forms Importing Data From SQL Server into Oracle Tables.

Dear All,
We are using Oracle Forms 10g in windows XP and having OAS 10g and Oracle database 9i.
How can we import data from SQL Server 2005 into Oracle tables using Oracle Forms?
Thanks & Regards
Eidy

I have no idea what "Oracle Hetrogenius Services" is, so I can't help you with that, sorry.
SQL Developer might also assist you. SQL Developer can connect to SQL Server as well as Oracle and has some tools for migration. See the documentation for details:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12151_01/doc.150/e12156/toc.htm
For additional help on using SQL Developer for this task, please consult Support or the SQL Developer forum: SQL Developer
Hope this helps,

Import data from sql server /vice versa

My Database serevr version is 10.1.0.3.0.
Sql Server 2000.
Is it possible to import data from sql server to oracle database?
Also other way around.
I mean import data from Oracle to sql server.
Regards,
D

Hi,
You can use Heterogeneous Service to do this. This component is free but poor of resources. Simple things you can do with this, complex I really don't know.
Also, to import from sqlserver to oracle you can use Oracle Warehouse Builder, an Oracle ETL tool. But, OWB do not work in other way, oracle to sqlserver.
And why do want to use sqlserver, if you have oracle?

but when i go to import the meta data of tables in SQL Server i get this error.
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

Import data from SQL Server into MS Word document for Mail Merge purpose ?

Hi,
Is it possible to import contacts from SQL Server into MS Word for mail merge purpose or if retrieving data from MS Excel can we update the data in MS Excel sheet without opening it ?
Note: Remember when you open a word document already set up for mail merge, asks you to run the query to return all records from the excel sheet it is connected to.
Khurram

Word and the current data source dialog do not really give you any help with that.
You either have to be able to create a View in SQL Server that performs the query you need, then connect to that, or you have to be able to create the correct query manually (or perhaps using some other query tool that can help you), then use VBA to connect
using that query.
For example, if you have been through the connection process once (connecting to a single table) then you will have a .odc (Office Data Connection file) which has the info. needed to connect to the correct server and database. It's a text file with some
HTML and XML inside. You can copy/rename it. Let's say it is called "c:\a\myodc.odc" Then in VBA you can use something like
ActiveDocument.OpenDataSource Name:="c:\a\myodc.odc, _
SQLStatement:="put your SQL statement in here, and if it is long,...", _
SQLStatement1:="put the second part in here"
You get a maximum of either 255 or around 511 characters in the SQL statement, and Word tends to impose some syntax requirements that Transact-SQL does not, so e.g. you may need to quote all your table names.
You can also se an empty .odc file and provide connection info. in the COnnection:= parameter in OpenDataSource.
As background, until Word 2000, by default you would use MS Query to create your SQL query, and MS Query does have facilities that can help you build your query (a bit like the ones in MS Access). That may still be possible (it is a bit harder to find the MS
Query option now, and I am not sure it works with the latest versions of Word). MS Query only works for ODBC queries, and they do not always work correctly when you actually issue the query using ODBC from Word, because of a Word problem to do with Unicode
fields in SQL Server. But you could probably still use MS Query to help you construct your SQL. (It's probably easier to do that in Excel, though).

Error occured when importing data from dmp

Hello friends
when i am importing data from dmp file
the following error occured
Please help me to solve this
Error message :
Export file created by EXPORT:V09.02.00 via conventional path
import done in WE8PC850 character set and AL16UTF16 NCHAR character set
export client uses US7ASCII character set (possible charset conversion)
Import terminated successfully without warnings.

This is not really an error message but a information about possible character conversion from US7ASCII to WE8PC850 which should NOT be an issue since all US7ASCII characters are in most WExxx character sets.

Import data from SQL Server to Oracle

I have created a dblink in oracle to access the SQL database. I am able to run queries through the dblink and it works fine. I have created a test table on Oracle Server to import the data. The field named "description" has CLOB data type. The corresponding datatype on SQL Server is varchar(7000).
When I insert the data from SQL Server, it completes successfully without any error but it truncates the data on CLOB field.
If I run the select query in SQLPlus I can see the entire description.
Select "description" from sql_view@dblink;
-- the above works fine.
CREATE table test
(description CLOB);
INSERT INTO TEST
Select "description" from sql_view@dblink;
-- this works but it truncates the data after 256 characters
My question is, how to get the data from SQL Server without truncating characters.
Thanks in advance,
Gopal

I hear the same from other friend that sql server truncated the leading zeros from the id column.
I really don't have a solution for this but you can try the work around. Export the data to flat file and upload in oracle using SQL loader, as this would be much faster and efficient.

Importing data from SQL Server 2005 database

Dear Friends
Scenario:
We have built an application for which the database is SQL Server 2005.
Now, we have planned to switch over to Oracle 8i database.
There is a field with data type as Varchar(Max) – which can hold data with a maximum length of 231 characters (SQL Server 2005)
In Oracle 8i, the Varchar2 max size 4000 bytes or characters.
We want to import the data from SQL Sever 2005 database into Oracle 8i database.In the process, the value for the particular field whose data type set as Varchar(Max) in SQL Server 2005 and contains more than 4000 characters gets automatically truncated while importing into oracle.
We want the entire characters stored in the field to be imported into oracle database.
Please suggest solutions.
Thanks and regards
Bharath Kumar V

Use CLOB if the data is purely text data. BLOB otherwise.
But the question is why you want to switch over to an Oracle version which is de-supported by Oracle?

EVDRE encountered an error when retrieving data from web server

Hi
When I am trying to open Data Input=>Build a schedule using a dynamic template in BPC version for SAP netweaver, I am getting the below error "EVDRE encountered an error retrieving data from the Web Server".
I am not able to open any template, every time I am getting the same message. I have tried again after reprocessing all the dimension.
Even I have tried in appset APSHELL also, there also I am getting the same error
Request you to help me to resolve the above error which will allow me to proceed further.
Thanks in Advance.
Venkat

Hi,
Beside Nilanjan's solution, this error could also occur when the expansion is running more rows than the Excel limit allows (65'000 rows and 256 cols for Excel 2003)...
Even when you're using suppress field to reduce the number of rows, the first sequence is to retrieve the complete dataset before performing any suppression. And this could of course exceed the limit sometimes.
Hope this helps.
Kind Regards,
Patrick

IPhoto gives import error "file not valid" when import more than one photo

Trying to import lots of photos.
Every time I try to import more than a few, I get an error that "The following files could not be imported (they may be an unrecognized file type of the files may not contain valid data)."
When I go back to importing just one at a time, it works fine every time.
I have tried rebuilding the iPhoto library as well.
I have tried also not copying into the iPhoto library and copying into the iPhoto library (using Preferences/Advanced/Importing).
Any help would be great.
This is painful doing one-by-one, and each one I bring in shows as a separate event...
Every once in a while I will get lucky and it will import more than 5, though I will still get the error before it imports all selected. Ugh!

Unfortunately did not work.
And now a silly question - how do I get to be able to see my original iPhoto library? When I try to open it, I don't see any of the albums and mobileme galleries I had created anymore (though I can still see them on the web)

IPhoto not responding when importing photos from Canon Powershot SD450

Recently I have been unable to import photos from my camera. I can see the thumbprints but when I try to import iPhoto hangs and has to be force quit? I am able to take the SD Card and insert it into an SD card reader, so there is no problem with the SD card.
The following message appears in the Console log:
10/28/08 1:56:53 PM iPhoto[61816] Error loading /Library/Contextual Menu Items/DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DocumentsToGoXCM: dlopen(/Library/Contextual Menu Items/DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin/Contents/MacOS/DocumentsToGoXCM, 262): no suitable image found. Did find:

Anyone know if this DocumentsToGoXCM.plugin is related to the DocumentsToGo program for Palm PDAs (which I have)? And why would it be involved with iPhoto?

Patricia

Sure seems like it.
And why would it be involved with iPhoto?
May not be.
I am able to take the SD Card and insert it into an SD card reader, so there is no problem with the SD card.
Can you import from it there?
