I want to import data of excel file to oracle database by using oracle forms 10g . I try to use WebUtil but it is so slow.
Can any one help me to find another way?
Big Thanks
The easiest way is to get the file on the database server.
If the file is on the client side, you can do this by using a shared drive between your application server and db server and then transfer the file using webutil.
When the file is on the db server read the file using an external table.
See this link for more information on external tables

I have not been able to find a solution to this so will ask the experts.
A co-worker has a .txt file on his laptop that we want to load into Azure SQL DB using SSMS and Bulk Insert. We can open the local file easily enough but we don't know how to reference this file in FROM clause.
Assuming a file named myData.txt is saved to
c:\Users\Someone
how do we tell Azure SQL DB where that file is?
You don't. :) You have to upload a file to an Azure Blob Store and then, from there, you can use BULK INSERT or OPENROWSET to open the file.

I've written an article that describes the steps to open a JSON file here:
https://medium.com/#mauridb/work-with-json-files-with-azure-sql-8946f066ddd4
I fixed this problem by uploading the file to a local database and then use a linked server to my Azure db to insert or update the record. Much easier than creating a Blob Storage. However, if the file is very big or you have a lot of files to upload you might not want to use my method as linked servers is not the quickest connection.

Is there a way to create datasource through excel file in SpagoBI os that we can do the CRUD operations in the data source..
No, you can upload an excel file as a SpagoBI data set, but it is exposed as a read only source of data for reports . C(R)UD ops on that file would need to be supported through other means .
I was wondering how do we ingest CSV files located on a Red Hat LINUX server into SQL Server Database Table.
I know we can write a Stored Procedure/Bulk Insert to read the files that are located on the same Windows Server as SQL Server and update the database but not sure how to do it when the files are present in LINUX.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Since you know how to proceed once the csv file is on your Windows box, it seems this question amounts to how to get the file from a Linux server to a Windows server. I suggest rcp or rsync. There are Windows versions of both.
I have an ASP.NET app that takes multimegabyte file uploads, writes them to disk, and later MSSQL 2008 loads them with BCP.
I would like to move the whole thing to Azure, but since there are no "files" for BCP, can anyone comment on how to get bulk data from an Azure app into SQL Azure?
I did see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlbulkcopy.aspx but am not sure if that applies.
Thanks.
BCP is one way to do it.
This post explains it in three easy steps:
Bulk insert with Azure SQL
You are on the right track. The Bulk Copy API will work. I am using it. And it's the fastest way to import data because it uses INSERT BULK statements. Not to get confused with the BULK INSERT statement which is not supported in SQL Azure. In essence, BCP and the SqlBulkCopy API use the same method.
http://www.solidq.com/sqj/Pages/2011-May-Issue/Migrating-Data-into-Microsofts-Data-Platform-SQL-Azure.aspx for a detailed analysis of options available
I think it's important to note that BCP cannot handle source files that are Unicode while using a format file to do your import.
