How To Export Records From Sql Database To Tab-delimited File
Jul 7, 2005
Hi,
I want to export data/records coming from the database and save it as a
.txt file but tab-delimited. The flow of my project is something this.
Web Form->SQL Database->Web Report->Tab-Delimited file.
I will explain more..What we want to do is an online application form.
We have a form and will save all the data to sql server database. We
also want to save all those information in a tab-delimited file. I
would like to save this first in the database(no problem in this part).
Then later on export this in tab-delimited file.
If you can give me a little bit tutorial of this i really
appreciated..Even 3 records can do as long i can see how to do
this..Ooops btw, i also want to name the .txt file as
(userid+transactionid).
Thank you very much!

I'm trying to upload a small Web application with a one table database. The hosting company, GoDaddy requires that I upload the database as a comma delimited file.
I created the database in Visual Web Developer Express but also have Visual Studio and SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I can't figure out how to export the database into a comma delimited file using any of these tools.
This should be simple like it is in Access but that doesn't seem to be the case. This is holding up deploying my Web Application.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to export as a tab delimited text file. For that I have changed my config file as :
<Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.CsvRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.CsvRendering">
<OverrideNames>
<Name Language="en-US">TXT (Tab Delimited Text File)</Name>
</OverrideNames>
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<FieldDelimiter>	</FieldDelimiter>
<Extension>TXT</Extension>
<Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
<NoHeader>true</NoHeader>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
</Extension>
I got this code from another one of the MSDN forms. When I run the report and try to export using this format, it still gives me a csv file instead of tab delimited file.
Can someone please help me fix this code so I can get tab delimited text files.
Thanks a lot,
-Rohit

Hi,
I'm trying to deploy my Web site to GoDaddy. They told me I have to export the SQL Server Express database to a comma delimited file and then upload that file. The export procedure is simple in Access but I don't see any way to do it in SQL Server or from Visual Web Developer or Visual Studio.
Also, I can ask them, but I assume I have to export each table separately and also export the ASPNETDB as well.
Thanks for the help

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone might be able to say how I could export data captured via a view into a comma delimited csv file.
So far I have tried using BCP to access my view and export to a CSV file, but the CSV file isn't comma delimited. I tried finding examples but couldn't see what I should do to have a comma delimited file. (I'm getting a bit tired now, so I might be missing something!)
I have created a bat file containing the following code:
bcp "TestDB..GA_FSM_DCSF_Extract" out "C:GA_FSM_DCSF_Extract.csv" -fexport.fmt -e "C:error.log" -c -T -S srckvzg2j -r
Any help / pointers would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Henrik

I've got a query that returns the data I need. I want to put the query in a stored procedure such that, when the SP runs I get a pipe delimited text file on disk. I don't really want to mess with SSIS, etc. Is there a Q&D way to do this?

The problem is that I have (for example) following data
AAAA AA ALH
B BBB MIL
CCCCCC CAC Q
D D P
in space delimited file and i want to populate a database using SSIS and it is not working. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
P.S. the only way to recognize colums is through spaces b/w the data.

I have to export the records of a table in a .txt file but in a strange way (in a column). For example I have this table with 3 fields:
create table prova
(cod varchar(1),
des1 varchar(2),
des2 Varchar (2)
)
insert into prova values (1, 'A1', 'A2')
insert into prova values (2, 'B1', 'B2')
I need to have the output in this way:
1 cod 1
1 des1 A1
1 des2 A2
8 S
1 cod 2
1 des1 B1
1 des2 B2
8 S
So, I have to put '1' at the beginning of every field and '8 S' at the end of every record.

Hello,We have a query which returns ~2.8 million rows. This same query isused in a DTS package, which exports to a text file. The number ofrows in this text file, however, is ~2.7 million rows (I'm rounding ofcourse.) So a good chunk of data vanished in the export it appears.Using SQL Server 7.0 on Windows 2000.Anyone see bugs w/ DTS text exports for very large amounts of data?Thanks,DF"Never eat more than you can lift."

Does anyone know if it's possible to get a tab delimited export function available from the web interface? I saw a couple posts on this, even one person saying they got it working, but adding
<Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.CsvRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.CsvRendering">
<OverrideNames>
<Name Language="en-US">TXT (Tab Delimited Text File)></Name>
</OverrideNames>
<Configuration>

<FieldDelimiter>	</FieldDelimiter>
<Extension>TXT</Extension>
<Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
<NoHeader>true</NoHeader>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
</Extension>
to my rsreportserver.config under the Render tag, it didn't seem to make any difference. Thanks a ton for any help since I'm in a bit of a bind since my project's due in a little over a week and this new requirement was just sprung on me.

Trying to export a SQL Server 2012 table to CSV file, with tab delimited
Using the Export wizard it completes it no problem but behaving as expected,
Lets say I have 3 Columns
address1 NVARCHAR(50)
address2 NVARCHAR(50)
address3 NVARCHAR(50)
It is exporting it is doing
Column Width 50 (with value) |tab| Column Width 50 (with value) |tab| Column Width 50 (with value) |tab|
I was hoping for
Actual Value Length |tab| Actual Value Length |tab| Actual Value Length |tab|

Hello all,
I am trying customize the CSV rendering extension with different device information settings. I would loke to change the CSV extension to a Tab delimited output. However, whenever I add a new extension line to the RSReportServer.config file I run into problems.
1. What is the correct character to use in the delimiter to specify a Tab character? I seem to be unable to get this correct
2. Why when I override the name in the rendering extension does it still show up as the CSV (comma delimited) name in the export dropdown.
Here is my customized rendering extension.
<Extension Name="TXT" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.CsvRenderer.CsvReport,Microsoft.ReportingServices.CsvRendering">
<OverrideNames>
<Name>TXT (Tab Delimited Text File)></Name>
</OverrideNames>
<Configuration>
<DeviceInfo>
<Encoding>ASCII</Encoding>
<FieldDelimiter><![CDATA[#x9]]></FieldDelimiter>
<NoHeader>true</NoHeader>
</DeviceInfo>
</Configuration>
</Extension>
Thanks
Justin

I am running SQLServer 2000 to parse and store records in the EDIX12
format. This consists of variable length delimited records which
I am passing to the "transforms" tab to process with VBScript.
The problem is though each segment has a defined number of fields, N,
the standard states that if the final M fieds are empty/blank they are
not to be sent. Thus, a segment defined to have 20 fields may
have 6 the first time I see it, 13 the next time, etc. To access
the columns in VBScript I use DTSSource("Col001"). This works as
long as the columns are there, but gives an error when they are
not. Is there a parameter telling me how many columns are
defined? Or is there something akin to IFEXISTS("Colxxx") or
exceptions?
How can I handle this situation? One suggestion has been to pass
the entire segment to the Transforms section and break it up there.
Finally, what resources can yuo point me to for reference? I'd
like to get good at using DTS since my client wants their project
written for it.
Thanks for yuor help,

I have a table structure where there are multiple "/" separated values in two columns that I need to parse out into single records.
CREATE TABLE CONFIGNEW(PlanID VARCHAR(100), GroupID VARCHAR(6), SubGroupID VARCHAR(255), AddOnCode VARCHAR(2), ExternalCode VARCHAR(20)
INSERT INTO CONFIGNEW(PlanID, GroupID, SubGroupID, ExternalCode) VALUES('101/201', '000005', 'LAA/OCA/UCA/XCA', '1', 'M231_1)
[Code] .....
The results I am looking to achieve are:

Is there an SQL statement that can be used to accomplish this?

I need some help with a stored procedure to insert multiple rows into a join table from a checkboxlist on a form. The database structure has 3 tables - Products, Files, and ProductFiles(join). From a asp.net formview users are able to upload files to the server. The formview has a products checkboxlist where the user selects all products a file they are uploading applies too. I parse the selected values of the checkboxlist into a comma delimited list that is then passed with other parameters to the stored proc. If only one value is selected in the checkboxlist then the spproc executed correctly. Also, if i run sql profiler i can confirm that the that asp.net is passing the correct information to the sproc:
exec proc_Add_Product_Files @FileName = N'This is just a test.doc', @FileDescription = N'test', @FileSize = 24064, @LanguageID = NULL, @DocumentCategoryID = 1, @ComplianceID = NULL, @SubmittedBy = N'Kevin McPhail', @SubmittedDate = 'Jan 18 2006 12:00:00:000AM', @ProductID = N'10,11,8'
Here is the stored proc it is based on an article posted in another newsgroup on handling lists in a stored proc. Obviously there was something in the article i did not understand correctly or the author left something out that most people probably already know (I am fairly new to stored procs)
CREATE PROCEDURE proc_Add_Product_Files_v2/*Declare variables for the stored procedure. ProductID is a varchar because it will receive a comma,delimited list of values from the webform and then insert a rowinto productfiles for each product that the file being uploaded pertains to. */@FileName varchar(150),@FileDescription varchar(150),@FileSize int,@LanguageID int,@DocumentCategoryID int,@ComplianceID int,@SubmittedBy varchar(50),@SubmittedDate datetime,@ProductID varchar(150)
ASBEGIN
DECLARE @FileID INT
SET NOCOUNT ON
/*Insert into the files table and retrieve the primary key of the new record using @@identity*/ INSERT INTO Files (FileName, FileDescription, FileSize, LanguageID, DocumentCategoryID, ComplianceID, SubmittedBy, SubmittedDate) Values (@FileName, @FileDescription, @FileSize, @LanguageID, @DocumentCategoryID, @ComplianceID, @SubmittedBy, @SubmittedDate)
Select @FileID=@@Identity
/*Uses dynamic sql to insert the comma delimited list of productids into the productfiles table.*/ DECLARE @ProductFilesInsert varchar(2000)
SET @ProductFilesInsert = 'INSERT INTO ProductFiles (FileID, ProductID) SELECT ' + CONVERT(varchar,@FileID) + ', Product1ID FROM Products WHERE Product1ID IN (' + @ProductID + ')' exec(@ProductFilesInsert) EndGO

Is there a faster way to create my pipe delimited BCP file, besides from creating a format file? Actually, my problem is that I am having issue with the file. It looks perfect, like:
Code Snippet
Marie|32|brown|single
Gay|33|black|married
But when I load it to DataStage it puts the entire row as one column. I already specified the | as the delimiter in DataStage. I think the issue is from the column collation. If my data is as simple as my example above, what column collation should i use for the format file? Currentyl, i have something like:
Code Snippet8.0
4
1 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 1 emp_id ""
2 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 2 emp_cand_id ""
3 SYBCHAR 0 4 "|" 3 emp_statusid ""
4 SYBCHAR 0 4 "
" 4 emp_type SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS
I generated this through prompts given by BCP for each column. Then I changed the 2nd column values all to SYBCHAR and 0 prefix length..

Hi,On SQLServer 2000, I have a table with a following structure:MYTABLEcol1 char,col2 date,col3 numberMy Objective:------------Externally (from a command line), to select all columns and write theoutput into a file delimited by a comma.My method:---------1. Probably will use OSQL or BCP to do this.2. Use the following syntax:select RTRIM(col1) +','+ RTRIM(col2) +','+ RTRIM(col3)from MYTABLE;My 3 Problems:-------------1) If there is a NULL column, the result of concatenating any value withNULL, is NULL. How can I work around this? I still want to record thiscolumn as null. Something like say from the example above, if col2 isnull, would result to: APPLE,,52) The time format when querying the database is: 2003-06-24 15:10:20.However, on the file, the data becomes: 24 JUN 2003 3:10PM. How can Ipreserve the YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format? Notice that I also lost theSS.3) Which utility is better? BCP or OSQL?For OSQL, it has a "-s" flag which gives me the option of putting acolumn separator. But the result is:"APPLE ,14 JUN 2003 , 5"I don't need the extra space.While for BCP, there is no column separator flag.You will notice from my inquiry above that my background in SQLServer isnot very good.Thanks in Advance!!RegardsRicky*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
