Import Excel Table & SQL script

I am struggling to find out how I can 1) import an Excel table into my schema and 2) import SQL script to run automatically. I recently upgraded from an old version (TOAD 8.0.0.47) to TOAD 12.8; I knew how to do it in the old version, but I am struggling with the new one.

  1. go to Automation Designer (the toolbar icon for it looks like a lightning bold with a pencil). You can set up an “Import Table Data” action there. Once it’s set up you can rt-click it to run it, or to run from command line, the command would be something like “Toad.exe –a “Import Table Data1”” (or whatever you named the action).

  2. I’m not sure what you mean by “run automatically”. If you mean by command line - there is an “Execute Script” action that can be set up in the automation designer and run from command line in a similar way to executing the data import from command line. If you meant something else, let us know.

Thanks…I’ll give it a shot!

By automation, I would like to run a series of scripts at different times. Can this be done?

Yes. If you right-click an action once you set it up in the Automation Designer, one of the choices is “Schedule”. So you can schedule it that way.

If you have several scripts to run, but only want to schedule one script to run them all, you can make a “master” script that looks like:

@path_to_script1.sql;

@path_to_script2.sql;

@path_to_script3.sql;

etc…

Thanks again…

if you want I wrote this VBA code, this will create a sql file with create and insert statements for the xls.

open the xls, create a new macro, paste entire code, run sql. There are a few global vars on top to change what gets exportes, take a look.
