XML fields importing in separate rows in Excel

When importing the *.xml files from a returned form into Excel 2010, the fields correctly populate into columns, but each field also gets a separate row. It seems the xml is specifying a 'new row' for each field, when it isn't required. This creates a diagonal display of information (headers along row 1, info in A2, B3, C4, D5...)
When I import multiple *.xml, i get multiple diagonal displays, which look pretty, but aren't very functional.
Any ideas on how to get this to display correctly?
Thanks

Hello, Allan:
Thanks for the reply...I never would have divined the
SQL statement that you provided:)
IMHO, learning how to mix SQL with XML-related stuff
seems to be non-trivial in many cases. Even for the
people who who XPath/XSLT the exact SQL syntax is not
necessarily obvious:(
Is there a tutorial/FAQ that provides lots of examples
that illustrate useful/interesting tips/techniques?
I think many people would benefit from such an FAQ.
For the truly ambitious, this could be the start of
an interesting book (e.g., "XML and SQL in Oracle").

Adding every other field of two separate rows together.

Hi,
We're using Oracle 11.1.
I's like to add two rows from two different queries together,
I'd like it to look something like:
with
a as
( select 'a' q,'b' r,'c' s,'d' t,'e' u from dual),
b as
( select '1' q, '2' r,'3' s,'4' t,'5' u from dual)
select a.q, b.r, a.s, b.t, a.u from a, b;The trouble is I'm already using WITH and both the 'real queries' get their data from the progressive WITH statements already up top.
I'd like to add every other field from each query to a result row.
I have to use only SQL.
Is there a way I can use UNION and combine the rows using dummy fields for the fields I don't want to use?
Some something like
I know this isn't right but...it sort of what I want to do.
select * from
( select 'a' q,' ' r,'c' s,' ' t,'e' u from dual
union
select '1' q, '2' r,' ' s,'4' t,' ' u from dual);Anybody?

Can u try using join.
select a.q, b.r, a.s, b.t, a.u from
(select 'a' q,'b' r,'c' s,'d' t,'e' u from dual) as a,
( select '1' q, '2' r,'3' s,'4' t,'5' u from dual) as b;
This will result in a Cartesian join, but if you have a common column between a & b, then you can use it in the where clause.

Use XSU to store in multiple tables.
"XSU can only store data in a single table. You can store XML across tables, however, by using the Oracle XSLT processor to transform a document into multiple documents and inserting them separately. You can also define views over multiple tables and perform insertions into the views. If a view is non-updatable (because of complex joins), then you can use INSTEAD OF triggers over the views to perform the inserts."

SSIS Excel import skip first rows

Hello,
1. Is it possible during import data from Excel to DB table skip first 6 rows for example?
2. Also Excel data divided by sections with headers. Is it possible for example to skip every 12th row?
Thank you,V. A.

1.In Excel connection you cannot remove the 1st n rows as you want.
2. Not possible.
1. YES YOU CAN. Actually, you can do this very easily if you know the number columns that will be imported from your Excel file. In your Data Flow task, you will need to set the "OpenRowset" Custom Property of your Excel Connection (right-click
your Excel connection > Properties; in the Properties window, look for OpenRowset under Custom Properties). To ignore the first 5 rows in Sheet1, and import columns A-M, you would enter the following value for OpenRowset: Sheet1$A6:M (notice,
I did not specify a row number for column M. You can enter a row number if you like, but in my case the number of rows can vary from one iteration to the next)
2. AGAIN, YES YOU CAN. You can import the data using a conditional split. You'd configure the conditional split to look for something in each row that uniquely identifies it as a header row; skip the rows that match this 'header logic'.
Another option would be to import all the rows and then remove the header rows using a SQL script in the database...like a cursor that deletes every 12th row. Or you could add an identity field with seed/increment of 1/1 and then delete all rows
with row numbers that divide perfectly by 12. Something like that...

Reading from any file is always done in a loop through the records. So, just loop only once. That will give you the first record only.
If you have some code already you can modify it to something like:
for i in 1..1 loop
end loop;

How can I take text from a webpage that is in multiple rows and move it into a single row in Excel?

I need help figuring out how to take data from internet pages and enter it into one single row in an excel, or numbers if that is the easier way to go. I was also told access might be good to use. Basically I am going to chamber of commerce page and wanting to extract the member listing and enter in a database in a single line. The data is in different numbers of lines as you will see below (info edited to take out personal info). So I want to take the name of business, business owner, address, city, state, zip, and phone and put it into one line on a spreadsheet. I want to do this many times over. I think there is a way to do it through apple script and automator, but I have not been successful after 2 weeks of trying and searching. I have over 800 listings and I surely don't want to go through and do them one at a time. Any suggestions?

How can I get the extra data out of the way and remove the format so that it will go into excel? Thanks for any help you can provide. I am not to savvy with code, but I got a friend who is an IT guy that can help. Thanks again

So, basically, create 800 individual entries, each one containing everything from business name through the phone (not fax) number, add some commas and spaces to entries, and then put each entry on a separate line?
1. Go to website page such as this one-- http://www.littlerockchamber.com/CWT/External/WCPages/WCDirectory/Directory.aspx ?ACTION=newmembers --which seems formatwise very close to what you're trying to scrape.
2. Cmd-A to select all. Cmd-C to copy it to clipboard.
3. Open freeware TextWrangler. Cmd-V to paste info from clipboard into a blank TW document.
4. Remove lines from top and bottom so that only membership list remains.
5. Process lines to remove everything from "Fax" line through "See Also" line. Only business name through phone number will remain in the file.
--A. TW > Text > Process Lines containing . . .
-----(check "Delete matched lines"; uncheck all others)
-----Enter "Send Email" in the search box.
-----Click Process.
--B. Repeat 5A for other lines to be removed
------Member Since
------See Also
------Fax
6. Insert markers to separate entries:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: \r\r\r\r
------in replace box: \r***
------Click Replace All
7. Remove remaining blank lines:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: \r\r
------in replace box: \r
------Click Replace All
8. Add comma and space at end of each line:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: $
------in replace box: , (comma space)
------Click Replace All
9. Remove all returns:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: \r
------in replace box: (leave blank)
------Click Replace All
10. Insert returns in place of markers:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: \*\*\*, (backslash asterisk backslash asterisk backslash asterisk comma space)
------in replace box: \r
------Click Replace All
11. Remove trailing comma and blank on each line:
TW: Search > Find . . .
------(check "Wrap around" and "Grep")
------in Find box: , $ (comma space dollar sign)
------in replace box: (leave blank)
------Click Replace All

Importing several CSV files into Excel

Hello Everyone,
I managed to piece together this code which runs several powershell scripts that each output a CSV for every day of the week.
Next, I located a function that takes a CSV file as input and exports that as a worksheet in an Excel document.
My problem is, the last column in the Excel file should be the first column and I just cannot spot why this behavior is occuring.
#First phase, output CSV files used later in the script.
Monday.ps1
Tuesday.ps1
Wednesday.ps1
Thursday.ps1
Friday.ps1
Saturday.ps1
Sunday.ps1
#Now the function to export the CSV from Phase 1 into an Excel Spreadsheet.
function Export-Excel {
[cmdletBinding()]
Param([Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$true)][string]$junk)
begin{
$header=$null
$row=1
process{
if(!$header){
$i=0
$header=$_ | Get-Member -MemberType NoteProperty | select name
$header | %{$Global:ws.cells.item(1,++$i)=$_.Name}
$i=0
++$row
foreach($field in $header){
$Global:ws.cells.item($row,++$i)=$($_."$($field.Name)")

That is interesting considering this script I found on Hey Scripting Guy.
http://blogs.technet.com/b/heyscriptingguy/archive/2010/09/09/copy-csv-columns-to-an-excel-spreadsheet-by-using-powershell.aspx
I have run your version above and have no issues with order.
I still recommend using WorkBook.OpenText($csvfile)
and
$wb.Sheets($csvfile).Move($wb2.Sheet(1))
This is much faster and takes much less code.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Could you give a terse example? I'm trying to put something together but am not having much success.
$sheets = @(LS D:\Scripts\work | select FullName -ExpandProperty FullName)
$Excel = New-Object -ComObject excel.application
$Excel.visible = $false
$file = $Excel.Workbooks.Open("C:\tmp\mytest.xlsx")
#$wb2 = $file.Sheets
for ($i=0; $i -lt $sheets.length; $i++)
$workbook = $Excel.WorkBooks.OpenText($sheets[$i])
$workbook.Sheets($sheets[$i]).Move($file.Sheet(1))
$Excel.visible = $true

Problem regarding XML field value to XML generation

Can't insert more than 8000 rows to excel via JOB

Hello,
I have SSIS package where I have two tasks.
File System task copies file (with header names) to destination folder.
Data flow task export data from table to copied Excel file. Select are simple "select * from table" without any filters.
There are about 100 000 rows in the table.
When I run this task through Visual studio everything works fine. Data to Excel file is exported.
When I run this package in JOB (Job Activity Monitor) the file is created but 0 rows is exported.
One interesting thing, that when I use select "select top 7000 * from table" 7000 rows is inserted but when I try to export more than 8000 rows then 0 rows is exported. The JOB generates 0 errors. In fact he tries to export. Because all the time
Excel's file "Date modified" is changing.
It seems like data is exported but the final "commit" isn't done. Anybody knows where could be a problem?

Out of curiosity I have had a go at reading 70K lines of data from a table in a sql server and exporting them to an excel 2007 file:
SSIS 2012 project deployment
2 project connections: sql database connection for source
and an Excel 2007 connection for destination:
Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=F:\Data\Outbox\ExcelOut.xlsx;Extended Properties="Excel 12.0 XML;HDR=YES";
I have an empty excel 2007 file as template with header rows in the first sheet.
I test the project in VS 2012, ran without problems.
I set DelayValidation to true on package level, data flow level.
In data flow, excel distination, ValidataExternal metadata to False.
I deploy the project with the package to an Integration Services catalog on a SQL 2012 server (not my development machine)
I copy an empty excel 2007 file (with the headers in the first row) in the correct file location.
I execute the package from SSMS in the Integration services catalogs, with 32 bit checked.
The package runs without errors.
I can open the excel file and see 70K records.
Last thought: I have no NULL values in my data. Do you have null values after the first 7000 records? Or is one of the excel columns expecting numerical data where it suddenly finds alfanumeric after 7000 rows?
Another suggestion: if you run the package with SSMS from the catalog, you can set the verbose reporting mode on, does that tell you anything more?

Display values of a single field in a multiple rows in a table region

Hi Tech-Gurus,
I want to display values of a single field ( which is in a table region) in multiple rows and also need to restrict the values from decimal number. If i click save, then it will throw exception "Decimal not allowed".
xxxxxx
yyyyyy
Reg.No
1234
5678
7654
I need to display the values of REG.NO in different rows like,
1234
5678
7654
and also need to validate as well against Decimal values.
Please help me with the code how i will iterate ?

Hi,
I am assuming you are talking about displaying substrings from the Reg No in different rows. For this you would need to write a query which identifies the substrings and creates a separate row for each (ensure you choose values for all other columns in the table row). Kindly let me know if the understanding is incorrect.
To validate against decimal value you can use the java code by checking the difference of the number and the number on which modulus has been applied. Hope that helps.

open a blank Excel (2007 version), go to Data tab, then from External Data click From Text, select the CSV file (That having more than 65k records), click import, then from "start import at row" select 65001 and click next button, select delimiter as Comma, click Next button and filaly finish.
In this way you will have the data after 65k rows in excel. Now you can simply open that cvs file in excel then you will have first 65k records (remening part will be discarded).
So now you have two excel files and you can paste it in two diff tab.
Note - you can repeate this activity if you have more than 130000 records...

Gui_Download export to excel delivering only one row in excel output

Hello,
I am using Vista Os with the SAP front end logon 710 and Office 2007. Also my company is using Ecc6.0 in the server.
I am able to export the Itab data to excel but all the rows are on the first row in Excel.
If i have 3 rows in ITAB then all the 3 rows are on the First row of Excel
I have supplied these parameters
filename = 'C:\ITAB2XLS.xls'
FILETYPE = 'ASC'
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
SHOW_TRANSFER_STATUS = 'X'
tables
data_tab = itab[]
FIELDNAMES = headingTab[]
Is anyone having the same issue like me ?
Thanks.

Hi,
I tried commenting the Field seperator but it didnt change anything. I am still having the same problem.
I am pasting my code sample.
data:begin of itab occurs 0,
grp type c,
val type i,
end of itab.
data:begin of headingTab occurs 0,
TEXT(10) type c,
end of headingTab.
itab-grp = 'A'.
itab-val = 100.
append itab.
itab-grp = 'B'.
itab-val = 200.
append itab.
headingTab-text = 'GROUP'.
append headingTab.
headingTab-text = 'VALUE'.
append headingTab.

FILETYPE = 'DAT'
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'

I think there is some problem with the Vista / Office 2007 with SAP.
Any suggestions?

Separate tab in excel sheet

Hi All,
I am writing a report to get data related to material master and download it to excel sheet.
While downloading I need to use a separate tab in excel sheet for each area of the material master, for example, a tab for Basic 1, Basic 2, MRP1, etc
Regards,
Gaurav

Ignore 2nd row and 4th row in Excel Sheet in SSIS Package

Hi All,
I have an SSIS package that imports an Excel sheet in which i have to ignore 2nd row and 4th row.
Please help me on this issue.

Hi ShyamReddy,
Based on my test, if second and fourth rows need to be skipped is based on some conditions, we can directly add where conditions in only one Excel Source with Edit Option. Otherwise, we can try to union three Excel sources to work around this issue. For
more details, please refer to the following steps:
Set the FirstRowHasColumnName property to False, so the first row stores the column names in the sheet.
Drag three Excel Sources to the Data Flow Task.
In the Excel Source, use the SQL command below to replace the former(supposing there are three columns in the Excel sheet: col1, col2 and col3):
SELECT F1 AS col1,F2 AS col2, F3 AS col3 FROM
[sheet$A2:C2]
In the Excel Source 1, please type the SQL command below:
SELECT F1 AS col1,F2 AS col2, F3 AS col3 FROM
[sheet$A4:C4]
In the Excel Source 2, please type the SQL command below (note that the ‘n’ means the number of rows in the sheet):
SELECT F1 AS col1,F2 AS col2, F3 AS col3 FROM
[sheet$A6:Cn]
Drag a Union All component to the same task, then union those three Excel Sources.

Hope this helps.
