DBISQLC.EXE is the utility used to connect to sample/local database for DML,DDL operations. But how do we export the results of a query to a file?
Solution:
By using ‘OUTPUT’ command.
e.g.
SELECT * FROM SIEBEL.S_CONTACT
To export the data to a file for the above query you have to issue the following query
SELECT * FROM SIEBEL.S_CONTACT ;
OUTPUT TO C:\RESULT.CSV
FORMAT ASCII
Note:-Don’t forget to add ‘;’ after the query and before OUTPUT TO clause otherwise you will get an error. Also make sure that a blank file exists in the path before you execute the query.
Syntax:-
OUTPUT TO file-name
[APPEND]
[VERBOSE]
[FORMAT output-format]
[ESCAPE CHARACTER character]
[ESCAPES ON/OFF]
[DELIMITED BY string]
