Ex:

Importing unformatted Data)(5^th Script in the project)

Database vinayaka;

Drop Table erparty3;

Drop table uvparty3;

Delete from party3;

Begin loading party3

Error files exparty3,Uvparty3

Checkpoint10;

Define

i-pid(char(1)),

i-PNUM(char(5)),

i-PCode(char(2)),

i-Pinc(char(5)),

CRLF(Char(2))

[CRLF=Enter character]

File=c:\Fastload\data-fixed.txt;

Insert INTO party3

(Party id, party name, email, party code, Jdate, party income user created)

Values(

:I-Pid,

:I-PNm,

‘Tera data vinay@yahoo.co.in’,

:I-Pcode,

Current-Date(Formal’yyyy-mm-dd’),

:I-PINC,

);

END Loading;

Check point 10;

Record2;

/*errlimit10;*/

Define

i- \pid (Varchar(30)),

i-PNM(Varchar(30)),

i-PCode(Varchar(30)),

i-pinc(Varchar(30)),

File=c:\Fast load\data-vartext.txt;

Insert into party4

(Party id, party name, email, party code, J date, party income, user created)

Values

(

:i-pid,

:i-PNM,

To see the data in error tables

1. Select*From Erparty4;//[select *From sys Admin. Fast Log]

[//select *From ET-Party41]

2. F5 Press

2^nd Error table data

Select* From UVParty4

Generally problem in the Lab Rectification

1. Syntactical error in script
2. Record parcel length does not match
3. If the defining are using class structure length or input file, Data file not match, then we get the error
4. Input number of values not matching with column names

Ex: Insert into party(5Columns)Values(4Columns)
