I am trying to import data from excel csv to MS Access. A column in csv has majority of values like "F0000123". Few Values are "E0000123". While importing this using transfertext to Text column in Access, F0000123 has changed to 123 and E0000123 has been imported as blank with datatype conversion failure. If importing to new blank (no columns defined) table F0000123 importing as $123 and again E0000123 has been imported as blank with datatype conversion failure. Please help why value starting with F have this issue.
Link the csv file as a table. Then create a query to read and convert (purify) the data.
Use this query as source for further processing of the date like appending data to other tables.
AM using the copy method for copying the CSV file into the Cassandra tables.. But am getting records error of has wrong number of fields .
Query is ---COPY activity FROM 'Detail.csv' with HEADER=TRUE
i have my activity as column family with 7 fields
but in my csv file everything is separated by semicolon
Error is Record #0 (line 1) has the wrong number of Fields (1 instead of 7)
Above image is Screen Shot of CSV file
in my csv file everything is separated by semicolon
The default behavior of the COPY command uses a comma as a delimiter. Since your file is (apparently) semi-colon-delimited, it will see the entire row as one field (unless the data contains commas). Try setting the DELIMITER option in your WITH clause.
COPY activity FROM 'Detail.csv' WITH HEADER=TRUE AND DELIMITER=';';
And as a suggestion, I have always had more luck getting COPY to work properly when listing-out the columns to import:
COPY airplanes (name, manufacturer, year, mach) FROM 'temp.csv';
I've read through some other posts and nothing quite answers my question specifically.
I have an existing database in phpMyAdmin - a set of pin codes we use to collect contest entries.
The DB has about 10,000 pin codes in it.
I need to add 250 "New" codes to it. I have an excel file that is stripped down to a single column .csv, no header - just codes.
What I need to do is import this into the table named "pin2" and add these to the row called "pin"
The other rows are where entrants would add names and phone numbers, so are all "null"
I've uploaded a screen grab of the structure.

any help would be appreciated!
You need to use a LOAD DATA query similar to this:
LOAD DATA INFILE 'pincodes.csv'
INTO TABLE pin2 (pin)
If the pin codes in the csv file are enclosed in quotes you may also need to include an ENCLOSED BY clause.
LOAD DATA INFILE 'pincodes.csv'
INTO TABLE pin2
FIELDS ENCLOSED BY '"'
(pin)
If you wants to do using csv
Then you need to need to follow these steps
Manually define autoincremented value in first comlumn.
In other column you have to externally define it as a NULL,
otherwise you will get Invalid column count in CSV input on line 1.
because column with no value is not consider by phpmyadmin
Them click on import in phpmyadmin and you are done ..
I have a flat file destination that exports data to .CSV file.
While doing data validation, I noticed that some rows are missing the values for the field Remarks.
The issue that I am facing is that not all the rows are missing the values but only some of them are missing it.
Flat file connection manager settings:
Column data type is set to DT_STR with length 200.
Text qualifier is "
Header Row Delimiter is {CR}{LF}
Here are some sample values that exported correctly:
Multiple repairs # 20021089
Here are few rows that seem to have issues:
1. #20026982-exterior debirs and demo with permits
2. ID # 20005495 hearing
I am trying to export an ODS file to CSV, but when I import into phpmyadmin - I get "Invalid field count in CSV input on line 1."
File (it has more than two lines but the scheme is the same):
"Administração da Guarda Nacional Republicana"
"Administração de Publicidade e Marketing"
table:
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `profession` (
`id_profession` int(11) NOT NULL,
`profession` varchar(45) DEFAULT NULL,
`formation_area_id_formation_area` int(11) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`id_profession`),
UNIQUE KEY `profession_UNIQUE` (`profession`),
KEY `fk_profession_formation_area1` (`formation_area_id_formation_area`)
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;
I never do something similar, probably i need to specify the columns. the csv only have one column and the table have three. In this case the file input belongs to profession column
If you use phpMyAdmin, then you are allowed to specify column names. When logged into the desired database:
Select the table you want to import to.
Click the Import tab.
Under Format of imported file, select CSV.
In Column names, write out a comma separated list of the columns you want the data imported to.
You can also use mysqlimport if you prefer the shell.
For Example:
shell>mysqlimport --columns=column1,column2 dbname imptest.txt
If you want this to import into that table you have 2 choices:
1) Add a comma before and after the data in every row of your file, or
2) Delete the first and third columns in your table, import the data and then add the 2 columns you deleted back.
In Excel I saved the file as "Microsoft Office Excel Comma Separated Values File (.csv)"
In Phpmyadmin:
Select database you want to import table into.
Click import tab.
Select your file. Set FORMAT to CSV
Leave Format-Specific Options alone except for ticking the "The first line of the file contains the table column names" box if you need to
Click GO
You then need to rename the table ( which will be called somthing like "TABLE 5" if its the 5th table in the DB). So select the table and using the Operations tab -> "Rename table to:"
Make sure your uploading csv file only not excel file and then follow the below steps
1 Import
2 Browse for your csv file.
3 Select CSV using LOAD DATA (rather than just CSV)
4 Change “Fields terminated by” from “;” to “,”
5 Make sure “Use LOCAL keyword” is selected.
Click “Go”
Go to Import tab
Browse for the csv file.
Select "CSV" on Format on imported file tab
Checklist the "Ignore duplicate rows"
Change “Fields terminated by” from “;” to “,”
note : you better check the data that already imported. the first row of the data usually contains the header of each column on the table which you imported to csv file. delete the first row after you imported the csv file
you need to check the "The first line of the file contains the table column names (if this is unchecked, the first line will become part of the data)" and then click on "GO".
