lccSQLDataExport was created to export data from SQL servers. This data could either be viewed or exported to a file. As the data is exported, it could be manipulated.
This need came about with the introduction of some new tools (HPSA, ODS, ADP) that allow institutions to download data from the state database system (HP3000) to local SQL servers.
The lccSQLDataExport application does not worry about the storage of data or the database engine for querying information, but, rather handles receiving the records from a query and manipulating as needed. One specific need that arose for this tool was that some columns in the HP3000 database are actually multiple fields in one. For example, a students name is stored in a column as DOE JOHN TIM. This tool will allow you to export the data and split that column into multiple columns as the data is read/exported. In this example, you can also designate the minimum and maximum number of columns to produce from splitting one column. This handles situations where information (like a name) may have only two names, while other records may contain a name with 5 parts, but, your requirements may need a specific numbers of columns for other programs/need, like [LAST], [FIRST], [MIDDLE]. By designating a minimum, the application will append column separators if the data is too few parts, and concatenate parts if it is too many parts.
