Forms Data Loader
Forms Data Loader (FDL) is a tool to load data into Oracle Apps through front end forms. It provides an easy to use and cost effective solution for loading test or legacy data into Oracle Applications. Although it is specially built for loading data into Oracle, it can be used to load data in any application running under Windows. Requires no special technical knowledge and can be used by any non-technical end users as data is loaded through the front end.
Data Loader
Data Loader is a simple yet powerful tool to import and export data between many common formats. The current Data Loader version supports MySQL, Oracle, MS Access, FoxPro, DBF's, MS SQL Server, CSV, and delimited or flat files. You can use Data Loader to transfer data from one database format to another. While transferring, you can filter columns and specify WHERE conditions.
HTML Forms Data Loader
HTML Forms Data Loader (HDL) is a tool to load data from CSV / delimited files into any HTML based web form. It can be particularly used to enter data into the latest Oracle EBS Suite R12, R12.2.x.
It is a supplement to the Forms Data Loader tool which uses macros to enter data in forms. Since HTML forms usually do not provide any Alt keys (hot keys), it is quite difficult to load data into HTML forms using Forms Data Loader through macros, and Forms Record and Playback is impossible in HTML forms.
We used to get a lot of feedback from users expressing difficulty in loading data using macros, and they wanted an easy solution to load data in HTML forms. HTML Forms Data Loader is an answer for all these demands.
