Export Example |
Top Previous Next |
With dbfile you can export data into a delimited or fixed size file. The syntax is very similar to that for importing. The direction option changes to direction=o and the SQL statement becomes a SELECT query over one or more tables or views or a selectable stored procedure that returns rows. A control file consisting of the following: options direction=o file=countries.txt variables=2 user=SYSDBA passwd=masterkey db=127.0.0.1:employee SELECT COUNTRY {position=1 size=15}, CURRENCY {position=16 size=10}) FROM COUNTRY will produce the following fixed size data file: USA Dollar England Pound Canada CdnDlr Switzerland SFranc Japan Yen Italy Euro France Euro Germany Euro Australia ADollar Hong Kong HKDollar Netherlands Euro Belgium Euro Austria Euro Fiji FDollar The named output file is created by dbFile. If a file of that name exists already, dbFile will overwrite it. |
