• Remove the last comma before reading csv files

  Hello

  I'm working on a VI that reads a lot of files csv (created by an application) using the built-in "worksheet File.vi reading" before combining in a report by using the excel report generation tool. 'All lines' are read in the csv file by using the worksheet File.vi reading.

  There are cases of csv files, where there an unwanted comma to the end of the line and an extra cell (with no data) appears in the final report. I was wondering if there is an easy way to remove it (rather than passing through each line and get rid of it).

  Thank you!

  You will need to go through each line, look at the last element and delete it if it is an empty string.  But a loop, it's easy:

  

  Read the spreadsheet, get 2D array of strings.  For each line, download the last element.  Test if she is a Virgin.  If so, remove it from the table.  If this is not the case, switch the blank table.

• Generation of CSV via the process of PL/SQL

  I have a unique situation. I need to generate a CSV file, which is based on a query to use in a mail merge in MS Word, but I need to do so using PL/SQL instead of declaring exports due to the record-keeping requirements. Basically, I need to get all the query of a sudden lines I take a snapshot of the results at a time given in time, build my CSV to download, so I have to go back using the files I read to mark the records that were generated in the CSV file so that the generation of fusion file is documented. Any thoughts? So, I would avoid using the file system on the server running if possible as you build a page Web of PL/SQL procedure its self simply returns the file in the web browser. Any ideas?

  Hello

  I think this can be handled in a procedure. Consider the following:

  create or replace PROCEDURE "DOWNLOAD_EMPLOYEES"
  (
   ID in NUMBER
  )
  AS
    vLENGTH NUMBER;
    vDATA VARCHAR2(8000);
    vSEP VARCHAR2(1);
  BEGIN
    vSEP := CHR(10);
    vDATA := '"EMPNO","ENAME"' || vSEP;
    FOR C IN (SELECT EMPNO, ENAME FROM EMP ORDER BY ENAME)
    LOOP
      vDATA := vDATA || '"' || C.EMPNO || '","' || C.ENAME || '"' || vSEP;
    END LOOP;
    vLENGTH := LENGTH(vDATA);
    owa_util.mime_header('text/plain', FALSE);
    htp.p('Content-length: ' || vLENGTH);
    htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="Employees.csv"');
    owa_util.http_header_close;
    htp.p(vDATA);
  END;
  

  Create in the SQL command window followed:

  GRANT EXECUTE ON DOWNLOAD_EMPLOYEES TO PUBLIC
  

  Then add an A tag on a page:

  <a href="#OWNER#.DOWNLOAD_EMPLOYEES?ID=1">Download</a>
  

  When you click the link, the procedure is executed, and a download comes into play.

  This is, of course, just for a download and is limited by the fact that I use a varchar2 (8000) - If you need a larger amount of data, you must switch to a CLOB.

  Now, as she uses a cursor (C), we can use this to insert records into a table of newspaper or anywhere where you want to store the fact that recording has been included in the download:

  FOR C IN...
  LOOP
  ...
  INSERT INTO LOG_TABLE VALUES (C.EMPNO, SYSDATE);
  END LOOP;
  

  Then, as it is a single transaction, if there is no error log entries are cancelled.

  Your question is a bit confusing. In your subject line and once again in your question, you talk about generating a CSV file. This is a comma-separated values file (where the acryonym). But your question seems to ask about the generation of a file with a phrase in computing - that would be a flat file, but not a CSV file.

  The links provided show you exactly how to generate a CSV file, based on an arbitrary query.

  If you are not looking to generate a CSV file, and instead, you just want to generate a flat file to which you can write data, you can just use the UTL_FILE package. Assuming you're on a recent version of Oracle, you need to create a directory object, i.e.

  CREATE DIRECTORY directory_name AS 'path_to_directory_on_database_server'
  

  Then you would grant privileges on this directory for any user object will hold the procedure who wants to write to the directory

  GRANT read, write ON directory_name TO some_user
  

  In your code, you should just open the file and write

  DECLARE
    l_file utl_file.file_type;
  BEGIN
    l_file := utl_file.fopen( 'DIRECTORY_NAME', 'name_of_file', 'w' );
  
    <>
  
    utf_file.put_line( l_file, 'String you want to write to the file' );
  
    <>
  
    utl_file.fclose( l_file );
  END;

• CSV file will not work in Excel after update of the Sierra

  Excel is not able to properly open CSV files more. I have two MacMinis to work with the same version of Excel/Office, but one with macOS Sierra displays all the data in the first column.

  Must be a problem that macOS as Sierra mess up to the deliminter. Very annoying.

  Barebones Textwrangler can force CSVs to use a standard delimiter that Office can understand.  Try to open your CSV with that and save it as MS-DOS text file.

• Export the library of books as a .csv file?

  I'm trying to compare my Calibre library with my library of books in iTunes 11.4. Caliber exports data .csv file, but I don't see how the same (or even a file of Excel data or numbers) to the ca. 950 books in my library of books to iTunes. I managed to 'print' a PDF (28 pages) of it, however.

  Is it possible to get a data file of the compatible spreadsheet of my books on iTunes?

  I never did anything with iBooks, but with iTunes you can actually highlight a series of lines, copy, and paste.

• Numbers does not correctly Import CSV files

  Using numbers v 3.6.2 under OS X El Capitan v 10.11.6 CSV files are not imported correctly. A file with 8 columns appears in number with the first two columns containing data of 7 columns and the second containing the remaining column data. This does not happen with numbers v 2.1 I have on another Mac OS x 10.6.8

  Well, I know one answer would be to always download on the Mac of the latter, but I'm trying to stop using it, once all the data I need is available on the other, later, Mac.

  If Apple could provide a program that does work properly, why on Earth can't a version later do the same thing, it is a fundamental requirement and I don't want to play anywhere to try to sort out just that it works as it should.

  might be useful to provide an example of the file, or, perhaps to share data... Nobody here can change the numbers, we are all of the users like you.  The only options that we are thus solutions using what is already there, or work around issues by other means.

  You can still provide feedback to post using the menu item "numbers > provide Feedback numbers.

• Address book import of csv file gets empty address book

  I have a .csv file from a Windows 'Contacts' window. It contains four hundred entries, each composed of a name and E-mail address. The first line of the file says .csv "name, Email '; the entries are separated by returns and the areas that fall within the comma.

  When I import to intoThunderbird, I say to import an address book from the file and to import only the Email address and display name fields. When the import is executed, it is very fast and no errors are displayed. The new address book is displayed among the Thunderbird address books, but it is empty.

  Thank you

  To import an address book, try the following steps:

  Of the Treasury Board, click "Address book" (or 3-bar menu-> tools-> address book).

  In the list in the left pane address books, click the one you want to import (or use the "personal address book").

  On the menu bar, select Tools-> import. Opens a new window "import."

  Click on "Address books" and "Next"

  Select "Text file", click "Next".

  Near the lower-right corner replace LDIF 'separated by commas.

  Navigate to the folder where your CSV file. Left click on it once. Click on 'open '.

  For CSV, there is no standard for the number or the order of the fields. The screen you see allows you to 'match' your entry with the fields of TB.
  With respect to mapping of the fields, you have two columns: one of your CSV names and one of the CT. What you're trying to get first name, last name first name family name, etc.. If you are lucky, they will be already matched to the top. But if not, you can click on one and move it upwards or downwards in the list until it is opposite the name of the corresponding field. This will get names, email, phone, etc. in the right places. Make sure the fields are checked and the ones you don't want is unchecked.
  Once you have everything set, click OK.

  Note 1: the file name of your CSV file becomes the name of the address book (for example AddrBook.csv will produce an address book named "AddrBook").
  Note 2: when you first watch the imported address book, it can be empty. Click on another (for example, "personal address book"), and then return to that matter.

• Open a CSV file with text fields that begin with '='. How can I force interpreted as formulas?

  I have a simple CSV file, where each line is in the form:

  = B1 + C1, 2, 3

  I want to interpret "= B1 + C1" as a formula.

  I have 1000 lines like this.

  If I double click on the form and add a space at the end, it interprets it as a formula all of a sudden!

  I don't want to select change the first cell of each row in the end.

  How can I get the numbers to convert formulas?

  (using the numbers 3.6.1)

  Hi ras,

  = B1 + C1, 2, 3 is not a valid formula.

  The formula is intended to add values in column B and column C?

  

  Type or copy this into the first row (A2 in my case, because I included 1 row as a header row)

  = B2 + C2

  Fill down in column A.

  A screenshot of your table in numbers will help clarify what the CSV file is supposed to do.

  Kind regards

  Ian.
