SELECT INTO Statements
You can use the SELECT INTO statement to export formatted data to a file.
Data Export with an SQL Query
The following query exports data into a file formatted in comma-separated values (CSV):
SELECT SalesPerson, Name INTO [csv://Contact.txt] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.'You can specify other formats in the file URI. The possible delimiters are tab, semicolon, and comma with the default being a comma. The following example exports tab-separated values:
SELECT SalesPerson, Name INTO [csv://Contact.txt;delimiter=tab] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.'
C#
String connectionString = "User=user;Password=password;Company=MyCompany"; using (OracleEloquaConnection connection = new OracleEloquaConnection(connectionString)) { OracleEloquaCommand cmd = new OracleEloquaCommand("SELECT SalesPerson, Name INTO [csv://Contact.txt] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.' ", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "User=user;Password=password;Company=MyCompany" Using connection As New OracleEloquaConnection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New OracleEloquaCommand("SELECT SalesPerson, Name INTO [csv://Contact.txt] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.'", connection) Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End UsingYou can specify other file formats in the URI. The following example exports tab-separated values:
C#
String connectionString = "User=user;Password=password;Company=MyCompany"; using (OracleEloquaConnection connection = new OracleEloquaConnection(connectionString)) { OracleEloquaCommand cmd = new OracleEloquaCommand("SELECT * INTO [Contact] IN [csv://filename=c:/Contact.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.'", connection); int rowsAffected = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); }
VB.NET
Dim connectionString As [String] = "User=user;Password=password;Company=MyCompany" Using connection As New OracleEloquaConnection(connectionString) Dim cmd As New OracleEloquaCommand("SELECT * INTO [Contact] IN [csv://filename=c:/Contact.csv;delimiter=tab] FROM [Contact] WHERE Country = 'U.S.A.'", connection) Dim rowsAffected As Integer = cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() End Using
