Extraction of multiple logical records through sql loader

Hello gurus,
I have a few questions about the sql loader. I m totally new to this, I've never used, this is the first time that I m using

1.
How can I find the position of the character number or a number? I have to physically count the position? is it textpad metering or usage in a specific way to do this?
I know it sounds like a silly question... but I wanted to know if there is a better way to do

2.

example data 

1119 Smith      1120 Yvonne 
1121 Albert     1130 Thomas 

The following control file extracts the logical records:

INTO TABLE emp 
     (empno POSITION(1:4)  INTEGER EXTERNAL, 
      ename POSITION(6:15) CHAR) 
INTO TABLE emp 
     (empno POSITION(17:20) INTEGER EXTERNAL, 
      ename POSITION(21:30) CHAR)

---

2 can it please contact what is the "null deptno = white if"? "»

deptno POSITION(1:2)  INTEGER EXTERNAL(2)
              NULLIF deptno=BLANKS,

I really appriciate it ~
Thank you

Hello

The NULLIF means white load as NULL

Not sure I understand your first question. Of course you know the file format, TextPad might be an ok tool to determine this format for a fixed-width file.

Hello

This remove the control file:

XMLTYPE(in_file_1)

It is used only if the target table is an array of XMLType object.

For an XMLType column LOBFILE is sufficient, for example:

LOAD DATA
INFILE *
APPEND INTO TABLE TH_XML
(
 col_id_1  CHAR (100),
 in_file_1 LOBFILE(CONSTANT "c:\simple.xml") TERMINATED BY EOF
)
begindata
MYID1

It tells SQL * Loader data consisting of one record with COL_ID_1 = "MYID1" and content = "c:\simple.xml" IN_FILE_1

SQL> CREATE TABLE TH_XML
  2  (
  3    COL_ID_1   VARCHAR2(100 BYTE),
  4    IN_FILE_1  XMLTYPE

Issue when inserting records from sql loader
Hello
I'm trying to insert record of sql loader, but it's inclusion only a row.
Help, please.
Check the log file of causes.

Associating a header for his record in detail record in SQL Loader
I have a SQL loader script that loads the data in 2 separate tables, a table containing the header and one giving details. Once the charge is completed there is no way of knowing what element is associated with his header.
Is there a way to associate a header record with its corresponding details?

Published by: 934858 on May 16, 2012 16:49
>
2. the header and detail have the item number in the column
>
So I expect that 'Article number' provides the association.

If this isn't the case, then show the header and detail DDL table and some sample data and remember where is the problem.

This is why I am asking about (and you do not answer) how data loading; a single file or two, flat or hierarchical, files etc. to see how your sql * control of loading script dealt with data.

Date increment of an hour through SQL Loader
Hi, I want to increase the Date by one hour and 15 minutes when loading data to the tables in the .csv file.

Table structure:
CREATION_DATE NOT NULL TIMESTAMP (6)

In the control file:
CREATION_DATE ' to_date (: CREATION_DATE, ' yyyy/mm/dd hh24:mi:ss'). "

What function I can use to increase the time by 1 hour and 15 minutes?

Please let me know if need more information.

Thank you.
```
select systimestamp, to_char(systimestamp + (75/24/60), 'DD-Mon-YYYY HH24:MI:SS') time_stamp  ----> To_Char is for display purpose. It may not be required for you.
  from dual;

SYSTIMESTAMP  TIME_STAMP
------------- -----------------------------
24-JAN-13 09.25.44.535216000 AM +00:00 24-Jan-2013 10:40:44

--Just noticed you  using TO_DATE, so a better solution while working with dates
select sysdate, sysdate + interval '75' minute add_date
  from dual;

SYSDATE                   ADD_DATE
------------------------- -------------------------
24-Jan-2013 09:29:11      24-Jan-2013 10:44:11
```
In this way, your command file would look like:
CREATION_DATE ' to_date (: CREATION_DATE, ' yyyy/mm/dd hh24:mi:ss') + interval ' 75 "minute".

Not tested.

SQL loader file path control...
Hi all

I run the query through sql loader client machine below...

saved query in the file loader.ctl, which I kept it in the path "D:\loader.ctl" below...

options (skip = 1)
load data
INFILE 'D:\flat.txt '.
in the GL_INTERFACE table
fields ended by ',' optionally surrounded "" "
* (STATUS, LEDGER_ID, USER_JE_SOURCE_NAME, USER_JE_CATEGORY_NAME, ACCOUNTING_DATE, CURRENCY_CODE, DATE_CREATED, CREATED_BY, *)
SEGMENT1, SEGMENT2 SEGMENT3, SEGMENT4, SEGMENT5, ACTUAL_FLAG, ENTERED_DR, ENTERED_CR, GROUP_ID)

Now my doubt is, to run the above, I need to run the command in sql loader below...

sqlldr USERID = apps/apps CONTROL = loader.ctl

In the control file, we have given the path to the data file, but * how the command (SQLLDR) identifies the path of the control file. ? *

What I have to give or...?

Is it possible to run the loader program above in the customer's computer? or we have to run only one server...

Please clarify my doubt.

Thank you and best regards,
Muthu
Hello

The preferred method is, if you use oracle apps, then a simultaneous recording of type sql * loader
the ctl yor file in $/bin. Run the program at the same time to load the data.

I'm just givng you advice, you search on google, that you will get several ways to do the same things.

There are many ways such as the use of the external table, UTL_FILE or Shell Script to do the same thing.

How to use SQL * Loader to load the XMLType column with other columns?
Hello

I try to use sqlldr to load an XML file into a table with an XMLType column. I have found many examples where the entire table is an xmltype, but I'd like to load a lot of XML objects in a generic table for treatment with a single XMLType column and other columns to identify the load. A simple example, I have a constant column which I want to put during the download.

The following example does not work: (.) No error either.

create the table xml_upload
(the varchar2 (10) of upload_type not null,)
donnees_xml XMLType)

the file is loaded in the table perfectly.

Unfortunately I can't hard-code the name of file as file name will be changed dynamically.

so I removed the block

control file and tried to run by giving the following command line path

sqlldr $1@$TWO_TASK control=$XXTOP/bin/LOAD_XML.ctl direct data=/u01/APPL/apps/apps_st/appl/xxtop/12.0.0/bin/file.xml = true;

But strangely it attempts to load each line of the xml file in the table instead of the whole file

Nothing strange, that the data parameter specifies the file containing the data to load.
If you use the name of the XML here, the control file will try to interpret each line of XML as being separate ways.

The traditional approach this is to have the name of the file stored in another file, say filelist.txt and use, for example:
```
echo "/u01/APPL/apps/apps_st/appl/xxtop/12.0.0/bin/file.xml" > filelist.txt
sqlldr $1@$TWO_TASK control=$XXTOP/bin/LOAD_XML.ctl data=filelist.txt direct=true;

Oracle RAC and sql loader
Hi all
We have Oracle 10 g RAC on IBM AIX
Today I will be downloading the data in a table through sql loader.

I want that at the point only insert data that i am inserting all in the table, as I use the sequence on A particular column.

Problem is if I stop database, then I will not be able to insert data, and if I was not closing db value this column A is generated automatically when the application is running.

I have recommended that we should stop application with database connectivity and then I will fill insertion, but some people say no. Find another method

Should what I do?
Must sqlldr data have column has specific values?

Sequences do not guarantee free gap values. They guarantee the increase of the unique values.

If you have data that NEEDS to have a specific primary key, so it would be best to fill with sql and plsql instead of a sequence.

SQL Loader for single registration repetitive data reading
Hello

I have my DB such as:
Create table (FACTOR)
NAME VARCHAR2 (50).
ID VARCHAR2 (20).
DATE OF CLOSE_DATE,
NUMBER OF CLOSE_TIME
CLOSE_VALUE NUMBER (20,10)
)

I want to load the data so that the first two values go in columns (NAME, ID) and the other triplets go to the fields (CLOSE_DATE, CLOSE_TIME, CLOSE_VALUE) several times depending on the number of those present triplets. Is it possible to do so using SQL Loader?

I'm trying to load this file (containing approximately 40000 these records) using SQL loader and tried options using CONTINUEIF, OBJECT of COLUMN, etc. but nothing works for me. Guidance in this regard will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Post edited by: 3cd7ad85-b56c-4a9c-ae91-83be047aac2c

Continue_load can only be used with direct path, unconventional path. You must specify the record terminator and terminator of field, which is the same when your data are only a single column. Please see the example below. As for your digital problem, as you can see, it does not reproduce below. Your problem could be due to many things. He might try to read something else that what you think, he tries to read, because of something else being wrong. It is possible that you need to use:

(msisdn "to_number (ltrim (rtrim (: msisdn)))")

to remove the leading and trailing spaces and convert it to a number. You must provide a copy and pasting a full example, as I did below.

-loading_data.dat content:

233207332711 233208660745 233200767380

SQL * Loader vs external tables to a single file with several types of records (intercalated)

I have a file of sample data (we will have the a 'true' at a later date and put in day after that) which includes a header, footer, and 5 types of records, that have different columns and lengths, noticed by the first two characters. The different types of records are not all together. On the contrary, some (in particular, two of these types in this example) are intertwined. I am currently working on a SQL * Loader configuration file when it was suggested that I use external tables. I know very little of either, then I would ask what is the best to use.

Scott@orcl12c > host type test.dat

header line

AB, 123, efg

CD, hij, 456

Scott@orcl12c > type host test.ctl

options (Skip = 1)

load data

in the ab table truncate where table_name = 'ab'

fields ended by ',' trailing nullcols

(table_name filler position (1), col1, col2)

in the cd table add where table_name = 'cd'

fields ended by ',' trailing nullcols

(table_name filler position (1), col3, col4)

Scott@orcl12c > create table ab

2 (col1 number,

3 col2 varchar2 (8))

4.

Table created.

Scott@orcl12c > insert into ab values (1, 'old data')

Scott@orcl12c > create table cd

3 col4 number)

Scott@orcl12c > insert into cd values ("old data", 1).
