Query output to a txt file
Hi allI have a query which output must be saved in a .txt file. Each line contains a field with concatanated data. Now, it runs in a procedure on the database that uses utl_file functions to save the file on the server. In the calendar on the server runs a tast that verifies the file every 15 minutes one moves the files in this folder in a network directory that users can access. We are migrating to a new environment, and this solution is no longer an option.
I have the opportunity to create a BI with CSV report as output or create an interactive report and let the user to download output to a CSV file. But then the data are surrounded by double quotes. If it's not ideal.
The solution I am looking for is: the user gets a dialog box and choose the location where he wants to put the txt file. Then the output of the query is saved to this place as a .txt file. Is this possible in the APEX (APEX 4.0.2)? And if so, how does it work?
But then the data are surrounded by double quotes. If it's not ideal.
The reason why most system (not only apex) join the CSV fields using quotes is because it allows the data to have a comma which otherwise, to wrongly analyse data. The file would be completely unnecessary in this case.
You can generate files of apex anyway you want
See this post
Choose any file name and extension, the appropriate mime type and write data using htp.p in according to your desire format it in your file. It is very different than utl_file in the way you generate data (except the mime headers)

How to write output to a txt file query results

Select employee a.empcode a, b the address where a.empcode! = b.emp.codeYou can use UTL_FILE to do so, either specifically for your query or more generically as below:

This allows the header line and the data to write into files separate if necessary.
for example

The procedure allows for the header and the data to separate files if necessary. Just by specifying the file name "header" will put the header and the data in a single file.
Adapt to the exit of styles and different types of data are needed.

How about the text of the .txt file output?
This is my code:
#include "iostream.h".
#include 'fstream.h.
ofstream myfile;
MyFile.Open ("C:\test.txt");
MyFile < < 'text ';
MyFile.Close ();
But it occurs the error C1083: cannot open include file: 'iostream.h': no such file or directory.
How about the text of the .txt file output?
I would suggest that you do in the InDesign style to match...
InterfacePtr
stream (StreamUtil::CreateFileStreamWrite (...); if(Stream->GetStreamState() == kStreamStateGood) {}
flow-> XferByte (buf, size);
flow-> Flush();
}
flow-> Close();
There are lazy as CreateFileStreamWriteLazy equivalent methods.
Deferred methods will open the file in the application, but you will always get a valid pointer.
See docs on its use.

to access the txt file in vi executable
Hello
I built a UI for a project im working on. The data entered by the user on the interface are stored in a text file to the closure of the programme. Currently, it works fine but when I create an executable of my code, data are not written in the txt file to the fence. Is it possible to build these types of screws, special
Code to write to the file is located in a sub VI and I use the function "Write to the spreadsheet file", I go to 'C:\Documents and Settings\asha264\Desktop\Single Line\Single (9.0)\Data.txt Line' reference.
Thanking you,
Adnan Sharief
Make sure that your means of signalling of other vi until the output is not a condition of competition inadvertently. Don't forget that LabVIEW is data flow language, to make sure that certain events occur in a certain order, that there is a dependecy signal to force the order of execution. I got bit by that recently, when we used a functional overall to report all the different programmatic loops in the vi while it was time to stop. There was at least one place where, under certain conditions, the Terminal stop loop became the front signal had executed the "stuff" in the loop. Put an in/out error on the FG, then put in the error line after the functions (in fact file writing) guaranteed that the Scriptures of file occur before that the 'exit' condition was assessed.

Pulse TTL-PCI-6503 write in a log .txt file
Hello, I need to connect the PCI-6503 data output to a log .txt file. This PCI-6503 map reads a pulse sent from another PCI-6503 located in another computer. I want to just save the .txt file if a pulse is received. I know how to create and write to the .txt file, but do not know how to write the DAQmx data in this file. Could someone help?
Thank you in advance!
Hi a2h,.
To only write when there is data emerging from the Daqmx read, you can use the table Emply?. VI to determine if there are real (like the pulse) from the unit and then data of yarn that a structure of case that will write to a text file in the case of false.

Can not get the result of the command output to a text file...
Hello
I tried to get a list of my virtual machines (using PowerCLI) with CBT (block change tracking) enabled, and while the following command returns the results, I can't have it at the output to a text file. Any help you can offer would be appreciated.
foreach ($vm in get - vm) {write-host $vm; get-advancedsetting - entity $vm | select-string - pattern 'ctkEnabled' | sort; write-host | out-file c:\somepath\file.txt}
I get the correct result on screen, but the text file is empty.
Please notify.
Thank you
Hello, wmilligan2013-
You can get the information to an output file by removing the Write-Host calls. How to do:
Get-VM | Get-AdvancedSetting -Name *ctkEnabled* | Sort-Object Entity,Name | Select Entity,Name,Value,Type | Export-Csv -NoTypeInformation -UseCulture c:\temp\advSettingInfo.csv
Which will be, for any virtual computer that has a * ctkEnabled * advanced configuration, parameter information advanced output for such virtual machine to the CSV file in the appropriate location. It relies on the ability to Get-AdvancedSetting to accept the VM objects as the value to - entity from the pipeline (so the foreach statement is not necessary) and used the - param Name of this cmdlet, avoiding any disorder Select-String. I used Export-Csv to the output method so that you can easily consume these data later if you need to act on these data or even manipulate it.
How does do for you?

Hi all
I have a 100 page document that uses two queries to javascript FindChange to clean an imported XML file. I use the same files to clean for years and they worked very well. (I still only open in CS4 because I had some problems when you try to use this combo XML/find-replace in CS5 and 6.) The only difference is my computer has been upgraded, the apps reinstalled and am now running 10.9.5
I can import the XML very well in my template, but when I double click FindChangeByList.jsx, select Document, click OK, nothing happens. I do not get a second dialog box asking me to choose my cleanup of txt file.
I have only run this job once a year, so it's possible that I'm doing something wrong. I have copies of my txt files place in as many scripts as I can find it on my computer, but they are greyed out in support FIndChange file in InDesign.
Please help, it's the only way to correct this XML!
Hello
2 things:
1. assuming that your script is original - it is not by asking a TXT file grow is in the expected location. You can choose between 2 options:
- to remove FindChangeList.txt of FindChangeSupport file ==> script will ask another file
- to replace this file with your request ==> script won't ask but to run your query
2. you can see greyed TXT files in the Script Panel since this panel shows the executable files (the script formats)
