How to import Excel data into Toad 9.5 Table
I have Toad for Oracle 9.5 and MS Excel 2007. I want to import Excel data into Oracle table using Toad.
Please let me know the steps, how to do that. Thanks
try the following methods
METHOD 1: Click Tools → Import → Import Wizard. This window can be used to import data from various kinds of source files into a table.
METHOD 2: SQL*Loader You can use TOAD's interface to a program from Oracle called sqlloader. Save the Excel file as a comma-delimited (.csv) or tab-delimited (.txt) file. If your data has commas within a text field, save your file as tab-delimited.
Open DBA→Sql Loader Wizard
Choose "build a new control file". Next.
Click "Add". Choose your comma-delimited or tab-delimited file. Next.
Click "Add". Choose your table.
If you are loading a comma-delimited file, type a comma in the "all fields delimited by" combo box. If you are loading a tab-delimited file, select "TAB" from the "all fields delimited by" combo box. Next.
Choose a "load method" noting the following:
TRUNCATE will erase whatever is in the table before loading.
INSERT will insert data if table is empty but will return an error if table has any data in it.
APPEND will insert data without deleting any existing data. You might get duplicates this way but it's a good method if you're trying to get that last line that somehow got munged for some reason or another.
If your file has column headers in its first row, type a 1 in the skip box. Next.
Type a control file name in the control file name box. Next.
Choose either "execute now" to load the data now or "just build the control file" to build the .ctl file. Once you have the ctl file theoretically you don't even need TOAD, as you could just use sqlloader on any machine that has sqlloader and can connect to the database. But why would you want to. :) I choose execute now.
Note: If you are working with Oracle 8.0 or earlier on a Windows 2000 or later OS, uncheck "Watch Progress"
Note: once you have a ctl file you can:
Choose DBA→Sql Loader Wizard
Choose "Use control file". Next.
Select your control file. Next.
Choose "execute now". Finish.
Menu Database then Import and Import Table data.
You have to select the table where are you going to import and then, the more easy way, import from Clipboard (so before proceed to import just ctrl+c your cells in excel).
Usually I copy also the header row, it helps me in checking if columns are matched well.

When you run a query (a SELECT statement) in the console, the data retrieved from the database are shown in table format in the Result pane of the Database Console tool window.
I've searched through datagrip Help and I'm just wondering if there is anyway out there that can be used to generate INSERT INTO scripts for a tables' content or rows in table format?
Choose SQL Insert extractor in the drop-down menu.
Them you'll be able to copy (Ctrl/Cmd+C) data as a bunch of INSERTS. Or use Export button next to the extractor.
How to import CSV file into SQL Server table with identity column using DataGrip.
More precisely, how to exclude the identity column during the import or force importing the identity column?
Assume, you've got a table
create table test_identity_insert(
x bigint primary key identity(1,1),
y int
);
go
You need to change data mappings
From the 'Import: "file_Name.csv" Format' window, on the Columns tab, click the trash can icon with the Identity column highlighted. (See screencap here, I don't currently have the reputation allowed to insert images.)
Also, see the bottom of the 'Import: Format Dialog' help page in DataGrip, or the web help here.
I trie to load a csv file into my oracle database. i use the script below for insert. But it dosen't work. The word 'DATA' in the first line is underlined and comment as "bad syntax" --- Why?
LOAD DATA INFILE 'c:\\SCHWEIZER_DATA_TABLE.csv'
INTO TABLE PEP
CHARACTER SET UTF8
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
ENCLOSED BY '"'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
IGNORE 1 ROWS;
You're trying to use SQL*Loader control file syntax. LOAD is not a SQL command, and you can't use that control file as a statement in SQL Developer.
You can use SQL*Loader if you have the full client or server installed on your PC - the instant client does not include it. If you can put the file on the server you could use an external table.
But SQL Developer has its own data import wizard which you can use to load the data from your file.
Use this wizard to import data into a table. For example, if you right-click the Tables node or a table name in the Connections navigator and select Import Data, you can specify the .source file (such as a spreadsheet or a delimited file) from which to import data. You create a table and import data into it, or import data into an existing table.
I have never worked with Oracle. This is the first time and the job is quite tricky. I have a text file with records delimited with tab. These records are to be imported into a database using pl-sql. I have searched online but the solutions suggests using SQL Loader utility. But the requirement is to do that using sql statements. No command line utility. Preferable the SP or UDF will take file path and database name as input parameters and it will import the records when executed. Is this possible? Can someone provide me sample sql statements or any link that explain this process step by step? Also note that there can be blank records in file. Thanks in advance.
External Tables seems like the best approach.

UTL_FILE is possible but you would have to write the code to parse the tab delimited text etc.

I've created a relational model in Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler.
I want to add predefined\static data that should exist in the initial clean database: enum values, fixed lists( for example: contries ) using modeler. My goal is to receive script using "DDL File Editor" tool which contains not only "create table" commands and so on, but also "inserts" with initial data.
I there any way to do this?
What might be the easiest way would be to put the DML into the AFTER CREATE tab under Scripts for each table - and to make sure it's included in the DDL script.
