Import data from the text file to open the Document

This should seem simple, but I can't find a way to import a text file delimited to tab automatically on opening the document.  I can open my form fill pdf document, select Forms > more form Options > data management > Import Data > change the bottom right "Text (*.txt) files" file type, select the file, then import with no problems.  I can't find a way to do this automatically when the document opens.  I know a *.fdf file will do, but my data are in a tab delimited text file.  If this is not possible, is there a program or a script that will convert *.txt to import *.fdf?  Thanks for your time.  Steve

Have you looked at using custom JavaScript?

importTextData

You will need to work on how the data file select the line form.

  • importing data from the old system to the new system, key to the raw16 column

    Hi, experts,

    now I have a new system, the design of the system is to use raw (16) column as the key column in all tables of database.
    of course, when the new system goes live (in production), new records of transactions are written to the new database system.
    When the new system inserts new records, it manages itself to avoid any conflict of the raw key column value (16)


    Now, I'm dealing with this problem:

    I need to import data from the old system to the new system, I use sys_guid() to fill the column raw (16) into the new database system.
    How can I avoid conflicts of raw column value (16) between the old system data and the new data of database system?

    the sql code I write is very simple:

    insert into new_sys_table_a (key_column_raw_16,...,...)
    Select sys_guid(), old_sys_col_a, old_sys_col_b
    of old_sys_table_a;
    insert into new_sys_table_a (key_column_raw_16, col1, col2 )
    select key_column_raw_16, col1, col2
    from old_sys_table_a;
    
  • Average data from multiple text files

    I am new to labVIEW so any help is appreciated:

    I have a 100 txt files with two columns (separate tab) for a value of X and Y.

    I need the average of the values of Y to generate a single file and generate X against Y graph.

    So, how to read the data of these text files? (without having to select each one individually) and the average data and create a chart XY him?

    Thanks in advance

    There is a function to list folder in the palette of the file i/o that will return an array of file names.  Feed this table in a loop to open and read each file in turn.  Put in a new file, build a table with her, process the data or do whatever you want.

  • How to import data from the Excel worksheet file in a table DB using a filebrowse

    Hi friends,

    Im having a table has with the following columns as

    < Li > ID
    < Li > Employee_name
    < Li > Department

    with empty data in it.

    Im having an excel sheet that contains the data for the table has for the column ID < Employee_name < Department

    If it is possible to import excel data sheet empty table A that I have in the DB using a form of front-end APEX which is having a file navigation item only.

    So, if I store that excel sheet using a navigation button in table wwv_flows_files, then automatically all means this sheet file data in the excellent flows_files table must be inserted into the table empty i have.

    It is possible to store the data this way using a browse.

    Brgds,
    Mini

    Hello

    If you're on APEX 4.1 create data loading page. Then the end user may download the CSV data to your table.
    Excel can be saved in CSV format.

    Kind regards

  • How to extract specific data from a text file

    Hello world

    For my project, it is necessary that a parameter file is read at the beginning, so that variables be initialized with specific values that change with the user.

    For now, the mode of action is as follows: the values in a sequence specified in a text file are read and saved in a table and the elements of the array are extracted according to their index.

    The problem with this implementation is, that if for any reason any changes file format, for example we want to use a settings file from a previous version of the program, which has the values for the variables of same but in a different order, the only way to have good values for the parameters is to change everything accordingly which is really time wasting.

    Could someone suggest another implementation that make reading the different values independently of their order in the file, for example by analysing the file for specific strings and by reading the value after the string?

    Thank you very much.

    P.S. I've attached a screenshot of the routine, which I use now.

    Hi panagiov,

    Find attached files.

    Method 1: in this you can search for each variable separately. You can use "Live Config file" to get all the keys (variable) at a time, and then you can use for loop to get their values. Or you can access values as indicated in the present code.

    Method 2: Here you will have all the data at once. You will get variables and data (table 2D), you should look for the variables as needed.

    I hope you understand these methods.

    Good luck

  • Loading data from a text file

    I have a text in a file archive data that contains various information (numeric and string) I need to load into various controls in a VI that was to open the file and look for some characters of beginning and end of loading?  The information was listed by the VI of control so can I just load a previous series of data using its path and file name of data control?

    I guess that the following numbers the "data OH are listed below:" is supposed to go in a 2D array?

    There are several ways to do so. A simple way is to simply read the file and cut each of the sections of interest and convert the string in a table 2D, like this:

    Another is to read the file using read the spreadsheet file, and then the index on the first column and use it to search for the clues where areas of interest. You can then use subset of the table to get the 2D data table.

  • Vista cannot import data from Taxcut document initially used in Windows XP in 2008. In fact, it is impossible to open the same (initialize) this document. How can I change this?

    How can I get VISTA to open or import data from a document of Taxcut created in 2008 in Windows XP. The document is installed under VISTA, but VISTA is not able to open it or even recognize it.

    You must Taxcut 2008 installed on the system to open the file - it needs the program to open the file (the file itself is not enough - he needs the program to open it - and it should probably be the same year to open it but it may work to the year next to import).  It is possible that you can import data from the file in a later version of the software (I can do it with TurboTax to carry on information from previous years - although I've never tried to do by skipping a year).  According to the Center for Comptibility Vista, Taxcut should be compatible with Vista, http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=Taxcut , so that shouldn't be the problem.

    I hope this helps.

  • Reading data from a text (JS CS3) file tabs-delimited

    Hi - I'm working on a script to read data from a text file and use in a dialog box. But I hit a wall.

    I used a script from a previous post that defines a variable text document when the user script he chooses from a drop-down list.

    var myDialog = app.dialogs.add({name:"Map",canCancel:true});)
    {with (MyDialog)}

    {with (dialogColumns.Add ())}
    {with (borderPanels.Add ())}
    staticTexts.add ({staticLabel: "choose the location :"});})
    {with (dialogColumns.Add ())}

    var file = File("~/Desktop/myPlacesfile.txt");

    leader. Open ("r");
    var str = file.read ();
    leader. Close();
    var myPlaceList = str.split (/ [\r\n] + /);
    var myPlaceMenu = dropdowns.add ({stringList:myPlaceList, selectedIndex:0});})
    }
    }}}
    Ditto var = myDialog.show ();
    if(myResult == true) {}
    If (myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex == 0) {}
    myPlace var = ' - undefined ";
    } else {}
    myPlace var = myPlaceList [myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex];
    Alert (myPlace);
    }

    myDialog.destroy ();
    }

    That's what I do now:

    The text file is in this format:

    Value1 value2 [TAB]

    Value1 value2 [TAB]

    Value1 value2 [TAB]

    I need to have the drop down dialog box show only the value 1, and after that the user selects, the script returns only the value 2. (The alert is just there to test - I'm doing something else with the variable).

    Is there a way to view the first part of a tab-delimited line in the menu drop down and return the second half as a variable?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    One of the possibilities is that it. Create a table to the left of the values of the tab of the dialog box. Then create an object that you use it as a table of correspondence. Roughly as follows:

    same thing as what you have

    leader. Open ("r");
    var str = file.read ();
    leader. Close();
    var array = str.split (/ [\r\n] + /);

    'pairs' are the table of correspondence

    pair of var = {};

    as before, 'myPlaceList' will be used for the menu drop-down
    var myPlaceList = [];

    var v;
    for (var i = 0; i)< array.length;="">
    {
    v = table [i] .split ('\t');
    pairs [v [0]] = v [1];
    myPlaceList.push (v [0]);
    }

    Add the drop-down list as before:

    var myPlaceMenu = dropdowns.add ({stringList:myPlaceList, selectedIndex:0});})

    the table of 'pairs' correspondence is used as follows: pairs ['value1'] returns 'value2 '.

    so in your script that would be:

    myPlace var pairs = [myPlaceList [myPlaceMenu.selectedIndex]];
