Can't create connection between objects in Talend - talend

I'm new in Talend.
I've created two simple objects - an input CSV from Metadata -> File delimited,
and a tLogRow from Log & Errors.
Now I'm trying to drag&drop the input CSV to tLogRow in order to create an arrow between them.
However, no arrow is created.
I've tried all possible combinations of mouse buttons and ALT/SHIFT/CTRL keys.
Anyone knows what's I'm missing?
Thanks!

First drag and drop the components in your job designer :
Dnd the csv metadata from your repository to your job. Select tFileInputDelimited as component type
Dnd the tLogRow from the palette to your job
Right-click on the tFileInputDelimited and select row -> main.
Then click on the tLogRow component to create the dataflow

You can hold right click of mouse and point any component it should connected by "Main".

tableau, excel workbook, three worksheets, want data sources column in union

I have a question on Tableau Desktop. I have an excel file with three tabs: Applications, Shared Drives, Sharepoint_Libraries. I would like to union all of these tables. I would like a column called Data Source with the below values. So from Applications excel file, I would like a Data Source column in the Union which says Applications. So from Shared Drives excel file, I would like a Data Source column in the Union which says Shared Drives. Lastly, from Sharepoint_Libraries excel file, I would like a Data Source column in the Union which says Sharepoint_Libraries. How can I do this in Tableau? Do I need to edit the source excel files and add the Data Source column in each file? Or, can I create a calculated field called Data Source and use a formula to populate this information?
Data Source
Applications
Shared Drives
Sharepoint_Libraries
Tableau has a "merged mismatched fields" option for this situation.
So..
open Desktop
connect to the Excel file
drag over the Applications sheet
drag over the Shared Drives sheet and position it just below Applications until you see the "union" box appear then release your mouse button
repeat for Sharepoint Libraries
in the preview window (below) you will see the three different fields.
highlight the three fields that you want to merge
right-click and choose Merge Mismatched Fields.
Then you can rename the field accordingly :)

Tableau, toggle between graph and crosstab

I have a data set I have imported and into Tableau and in created a crosstab (by using the "duplicate tab as crosstab" option from the context menu on the worksheet. Is there a way to toggle between crosstab/chart visual with out duplicating the worksheet?
I figured it out. In the marks panel the drop down and measure values need to have the text option specified.
Tableau online help:

I also found that if I used a measure in the row, I had to change the type from continuous to discrete.

how to use main report data set as table's dataset?

I had generated a report using ireport Designer v5.1. For generating it i had used jrbeancollection data which is passed from java program .now i want to use this main data source as data set for ireport table.
could any one please help me to know how to do this.
thanking in advance...
Below steps help you to show JRBeanCollection data in the Jasper report.
Create the Java Bean data source using the report Data Source creation functionality which is the on top side of the iReport.
You can display the data coming from the Java Bean data source, in table format.
List item JR table
Normal table structure which is created by drag and drop from the fields.
JRTable -
Create subDataset from a Java Bean Data source you have created, It will return you the fields which you can use in the table.
From iReport palette window drag and drop the Table. It will open the window and ask you for the dataset. Provide the dataset you have created along with other necessary information.
Normal table on report -
Open main data source report query window, you will find multiple tabs
Select Java bean data source tab, provide the class name or data source you have created above. You can find below the window field name and data type.
The same field information you can find in the report inspector window below the Fields label in tree format.
Drag and drop which field you want to display in the report in the detail band or other custom band.

How copy data from Excel to a table using Oracle SQL Developer

Is there any alternative way to copy the data from Excel sheet and paste it into a table using Oracle SQL Developer!?
For now I am using (PL/SQL Developer) by writing (for update) at the end of the select statement, Ex:
Select * from ABD
for update
Then paste the columns from Excel to the table...
Regards
Adel
It's not exactly copy and paste but you can import data from Excel using Oracle SQL Developer.
Navigate to the table you want to import the data into and click on the Data tab.
After clicking on the data tab you should notice a drop down that says Actions...
Click Actions... and select the bottom option Import Data...
Then just follow the wizard to select the correct sheet, and columns that you want to import.
EDIT : To view the data tab :
Select the SCHEMA where your table is created.(Choose from the Connections tab on the left pane).
Right click on the SCHEMA and choose SCHEMA BROWSER.
Select your table from the list (by giving your schema).
Now you will see the DATA tab.
Click on Actions and Import Data...
None of these options show up for me. The way to paste data from Excel is as follows:
Add an extra column to the left of your spreadsheet data (if you
don't have row numbers showing in PL/SQL Developer you may not have
to have an extra empty column to the left).
Copy the rows of data from your spreadsheet including the empty
column.
In PL/SQL Developer, open your table in edit mode. You can
right-click the table name in the object browser and select Edit Data
or write your own select statement that includes the rowid and click
the lock icon. Be sure your columns are ordered the same as in your
spreadsheet.
Here's the part that took me forever to figure out: click on the left
side of the first empty row to highlight it. It will not work if you
don't have the first empty row highlighted.
Paste as usual using Ctrl+V or right-click Paste.
I couldn't find this info anywhere when I needed it, so I wanted to be sure to post it.
You may directly right-click on the table name - that also shows the "Import Data.." option.Then you can follow few simple steps & succeed.
Do anyone know how to import a new table with data from excel?
Click on "Tables" in "Connections" window, choose "Import data ...", follow the wizard and you will be asked for name for new table.
For PLSQL version 9.0.0.1601
From the context menu of the Table, choose "Edit Data"
Insert or edit the data
Post change

In SSRS 2008, is there any way to add all dataset fields to a table at once?

I'm working with SSRS for the first time. When adding a table to a report, is there any way to add all fields of a dataset to it at once or does it have to be done individually? Drag & drop, insert column -> right is a pain when there are a lot of fields that are being displayed.
It's a bit of a workaround, but the "Add new report" wizard automatically creates a table with the specified columns and groups from your given dataset. I don't believe there's a way to trigger this functionality from within an existing report, but you could create a "sacrificial" report to get what you're looking for - run through the wizard, generate the table, and copy / paste it into your original report. As long as your datasets are the same, it should work just fine...
Hope this helps.
I have a similar problem as the op and am new to SSRS/BIDS. And, I am updating a previously created report which (for me) is too complex to just quickly re-create using the "wizard generation" as the datasource is a web service (with code-generated web service parameters, lots of calc'd datasource fields, etc). It is faster to just copy the .rdl, delete all, and create the table manually.
I thought I would add that (only a little better than op's method, but nonetheless it is time-saving) you can just drag and drop to populate columns w/o the "right click > insert column > right". Just drag the dataset field to the place you want it in the table and BIDS/SSRS will automatically insert a new column. It also helps to drag the latter columns first (i.e. always inserting a previous column) so you don't have to scroll to the right all the time.
I was looking for the similar thing and I have figured this out. Open your report in Report Builder 3.0 which is a free BI tool by Microsoft. Go to Insert > Table wizzard. Then just follow the wizard steps to generate auto columns. Save and reopen the file in your visual studio, file will refresh itself.

#Kevin Fisher actually there is no need a workaround. There is way to do this out of the box of Report Builder 3. Open your existing favorite report template. on the tool bar, click on INSERT tab, look for TABLE icon, click on the down-ward arrow at the bottom of the TABLE icon, then choose TABLE WIZARD. Then I guess you know what to do from here. -hope this help.
I agree that there is no way to bring all of the columns over from the data set to a table easily. But I came up with a method that helped me:
Insert a blank table (this usually gives you 3 columns). Then insert columns to the right of the table (right click, Insert Column, To the Right), as many times as you need in order for it to equal the number of columns in your data set.
Once you have all the blank columns created in your table, click inside a table cell box and use the drop-down to select the field. This has the added benefit of allowing you to get the fields in the correct order, since I've noticed that the field names in the dataset don't always appear in the same order as the SQL stored proc output.
