Combining multiple plot data into a single graph.

This is my current data structure:
1D array of... (contains 6 plots, each with their own x and y arrays)
A cluster of two elements
1D array of I32
1D array of DBL
A cluster of two elements
2D array of DBL (y points for multiple plots)
1D array of I32 (x points for the multiple plots)
I need to combine these into something suitable for throwing at an XY-Graph. This operation will need to be done three times (for three different graphs), where only the 2D array of DBL is different for each graph (all three 2D arrays are located in the same cluster along with the shared 1D array). What is the best way of doing this?
The 1x6 array of clusters contains plots 0-5 for each graph. Is there a way to hide these plots from the graph's legend?
Never say "Oops." Always say "Ah, interesting!"

Sorry - this was actually a bit wrong/incomplete.
Graph1 includes one 2D array of DBL against the 1D array of I32.
Graph2 includes elements 2-3 of the 1x6 array, and also one 2D array of DBL against the 1D array of I32.
Graph3 includes elements 4-5 of the 1x6 array, and also one 2D array of DBL against the 1D array of I32.
This is how I'm doing it at the moment, but am I missing a trick here? Is there a better way?
As for my question about hiding any plots (on the legend) that came from the 1x6 array, is this even posible?
Either that, or is it possible to hide a graph whilst leaving its legend showing?
Or can one show/hide a graph's label in run-time?

How to use sql loader with sequence?

Hi,
I have create a sequence and I would like to use when I am using sql loader when import some data into table.
Please give me some idea.
Thanks

Another option is to apply SQL operators to fields

   APPEND
INTO TABLE emp
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"' (
   empno,
   ename,
   job,
   mgr,

How to export&import data using sql *loader

Hi all,
How to export&import data from sql*loader. Give me the clear steps..
Thanks in Advance

Hi did you already exported data from SQL SERVER? if not using SQL*LOADER you cannot export data. SQL*LOADER is only mean for importing data from flat files(usually text files) into ORACLE tables.
for importing data into oracle tables using sql*loader use below steps
1) create a sql*loader control file.
it looks like as follows
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'sample.dat'
BADFILE 'sample.bad'
DISCARDFILE 'sample.dsc'
APPEND
INTO TABLE emp
TRAILING NULLCOLS
or for sample script of control file search google.
2) at command prompt issue following
$ sqlldr test/test
enter control file=<give control file name which you create earlier>
debug any errors (if occured)

Using SQL Loader to insert data based on conditionally statements

I would like to use sql loader to insert records from a single text file into an Oracle database table. Sounds easy but the problem is that I need to check the existence of data in another table (Table A) before data can be loaded into Table B.
Table A has two columns: dept_no (primary key value) and dept_name (char)
Table B has five columns: emp_no (primary key value), dept_no (foreign key value to Table A), employee (char), job_title (char) and salary (number)
Text File looks like this:
Finance Jones President 10000
HR Smith Admin 2000
HelpDesk Jenkins Technician 3000
Problem:
1. I need sql loader to insert records into Table B by first checking if the first field in the file is in Table A.
2. If value exists get it's dept_no value.
3. If value doesn't exist discard record ( I might want to have sql loader insert a new record for this into Table A)
4. Using value from #2, insert the value in Table B for dept_no column.
5. Also assign a sequence value for the emp_no value in Table B.
Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
I am not sure this is possible with SQL loader. I would rather use an external table based on your file.
Then, I would use SQL to load your data into your table, based on your conditions.
Your request is not very complicated, writing the SQL to do that will be really more simple than trying to do it with SQL loader.
Hope it will help.

Sylvie

Two options that come to mind. Others exist.
#1 - {thread:id=474031}, which is basically storing the XML in an Object Relational structure for parsing
#2 - Dump the XML into either an XMLType based table or column and use SQL (with XMLTable) to create a view that parses the data. This would be the same as the view shown in the above post.
Don't use sql*loader to parse the XML. I was trying to find a post from mdrake about that but couldn't. In short, sql*loader was not build as an XML parser so don't try to use it that way.

ORA-01841 Error when value for date col is NULL in .dat (using SQL Loader)

Hello Gurus,
I have some data in .dat file which needs to be loaded into oracle table. I am using SQL * Loader to do the job. Although "NULLIF col_name =BLANKS" works for character datatype, but when value for date col is NULL then I get ORA-01841 error. I have to make NULL for all rows withour value for date column
Early reply will be highly appreciated
Farooq

Hi,
May be this problem is not with the NULLIF. The value for the date column is not in proper date format.
create table:
create table kk (empno number, ename varchar2(20), deptno number, hiredate date)
Control file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'd:\kk\empdata.dat'
insert into TABLE kk ( empno position (1:2) integer external,
ename position(4:5) char NULLIF ename=BLANKS,
deptno position (7:8) integer external NULLIF deptno=BLANKS,
hiredate position (10:20) date NULLIF hiredate=BLANKS)
data file:
10 KK 01-jan-2005
20 10
SELECT * FROM KK;
EMPNO ENAME DEPTNO HIREDATE
10 KK 01-JAN-05
20 10
Verify the data file.
Hope it will help
