BSP Excel Web Coomponent

Good Morning Everybody;
As you know BSP provides a built-in Excel Web Component.to provide Data Entry for the users extending all Excel functionalities. The excel web componennt in BSP is provided by the vendor "Microsoft Web Components" Ver. 11.0.0.6555.
The problem we faced, This exel web component in BSP is lack of "freezing columns" as the ordinary excel we have.
Any suggestion to handle this issue??
With Regards

this is not a BSP issue. its Microsoft OfficeWebComponent issue and you may find some answer if you search in MSDN or microsoft forums. As far as i know Excel web component doesnt offer column freezing.

Hi Tracy,
Have you changed something on your SharePoint 2007 environment recently before this issue occurred?
This issue may be related to Alternate Access Mappings settings like the following similar post, if you have configured AAM, you can check if this issue happened to some URLs, if it's the case, please add the problematic URLs as a Publish URLs for the default
zone for your web application, and also add these URLs as trusted locations, then check results again.
If above doesn't work, please enable ULS log on verbose level to get more useful log errors which time are corresponding to the errors occur.

External Data Refresh failed - Unable to refresh list data in Excel Web Access WebPart

Hi,
I have created a PivotChart in Excel workbook that fetches data from a SharePoint list using "OData Data Feed". When refreshing the connection in Excel 2013, the updated data is displayed in PivotChart. But when i upload the same to a SharePoint
Library and refresh it through Excel Web Access WebPart, it throws an error.
After configuring PowerPivot for SharePoint, i am getting a "We cannot locate a server to load the Data Model" error.
Note -
SQL Analysis Service(PowerPivot) is in running state.
PowerPivot Server has been under Data Model in Excel Service setting.
The library location is added in trusted zone.
Using secure store didn't fix the issue.

Hi,
For your issue, the possible reason is that the SharePoint environment does not have a PowerPivot for SharePoint server, or the SQL Server Analysis Services (PowerPivot) service is stopped.
Install PowerPivot for SharePoint or move the PowerPivot workbook to a SharePoint environment that has PowerPivot for SharePoint installed.
If the software is installed, verify that the SQL Server Analysis Services (PowerPivot) instance is running. Check Manage services on server in Central Administration. Also check the Services console application in Administrative Tools.

Excel web access web part Refresh

Dear All,
Please let me adress my SharePoint issues to you.
Current situation:
I currently have an excel file stored in one of my sharepoint libraries.
The excel file has two tabs.
The first tab contains data exported from a sharepoint list (with data connection)
The second tab has a customized table based on the first tab.
I created a page and added a Excel Web Access web part. The above mentioned excel file (tab2) is viewed in this web part.
Problem:
Everytime I change something in my sharepoint list, the changes will not be viewed in the web part. The changes will only view when I open the excel file in the library first, and then save it.
Question:
Is there a way I can refresh the data automatically, or manually without having to leave the page of the web part?
If anyone has a solution please let me know, thank you for your help!
Bob

you can configure automatic data refresh. fairly simple. this article is for SQL data source, but the same process applies across the board.

Excel web app Review tab with SharePoint 2013

Is there a way to get the review tab to show up in Excel web app with SharePoint 2013 on-prem? Users want to be able to use the "add comments" feature while in the excel web app.

Hi,
That functionality isn't available in Excel Web App on-premise. I just applied the Oct 2014 CU to WAC and do not have it, so the feature just hasn't made it down yet.
You can use the "add comments" tab in excel client.
Here is a similar post, you can take a look at:

Excel Web Access Web Part on O365 SharePoint...

Excel Web Access Web Part on O365 SharePoint seems to run VERY slow on excel oData SharePoint list query/refresh.
Is there anything that can be done to speed this? Thanks

Hi Alan,
O365 SharePoint is hosted on the Microsoft cloud, we cannot check what may cause Excel oData query/refresh very slow, I would recommend you post this issue in our dedicated O365 forum for a better assistance. If the issue is related to O365 SharePoint
server side, there may involve
O365 back end support engineer to look into this issue.

Is there any way to get the PivotTable Field List to appear in an embedded Excel Web Apps spreadsheet?

The PivotTable Field List shows up fine when using Excel Web Apps normally. It doesn't appear to be accesible via the javascript API and the main
Excel Web App cannot be embeded in a frame. Any ideas?

Hi,
This is the forum to discuss questions and feedback for Microsoft Excel, this issue is more related to Excel Web app develop. I recommend you post the question to the MSDN forum for Excel
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
The reason why we recommend posting appropriately is you will get the most qualified pool of respondents, and other partners who read the forums regularly can either share their knowledge or learn from your interaction with us. Thank you for your understanding.

Odata Connection Refresh Error while using excel web app - Project Online 2013

Hello All,
I am trying to work with odata reporting on project online 2013. I am not using MS Excel client, I open any of the available default report in excel online. when i try to refresh data connection from data tab. it's giving me an error
as show below
screen..
I have already enabled "PWA for excel web app refresh" feature.
Following the blog instructions and microsoft support, i have tried to grant permission to
AppId= 00000009-0000-0000-c000-000000000000
And In the Permission Request XML field, copy and paste the following XML:
<AppPermissionRequests>
    <AppPermissionRequest Scope = "http://sharepoint/projectserver/reporting"
Right="Read">
    </AppPermissionRequest>
    <AppPermissionRequest Scope = "http://sharepoint/content/tenant"
Right="FullControl">
    </AppPermissionRequest>
</AppPermissionRequests>
Now, According to the microsoft, it should show Microsoft.Azure.Azureservices as Title but as per below screen shot it shows Power BI Reporting and Analytics..
title.<o:p></o:p>
However, i click on ok button and check that the permission has been granted. i can see Microsoft Power BI reporting and analytics in the app permissions.
I again go to my BI reporting, open my report in excel online and refresh the data connection and nothing changed. It's giving me the same error.
I hope that i am able to narrate my problem. Please tell me, What i am missing here...
sandeep

Ok, why did manually add / update the permission XML? Do you get this error for new Excel based reports? Test creating a new one, example here:

SharePoint 2013 error 8059 & Excel Web service issues

Hello
The issues I am getting is a 8059 error "and exception occurred when trying to issue security
token" it then asks me to turn on "includeexceptiondetailsinfaults" whichIi try to do on the security token service web.config. when I do this it Error 500's and I can't even access the SharePoint site, once I remove the code line I can access
the site but cant get any more information regarding the errors .
Any suggestions? In the ULS logs the error appears on numerous occasions.
Next issue is regarding Excel web access, it reports an error of "we're sorry we ran into a
problem completing your request. please try again in a few minutes"
I tried switching form workbook url to local but I am not sure if that's the solution, I have seen
that it resolved the issue for other users but not for me.
Code Below
The ULS logs report a number of entries the key one's being regarding load balancing.
It seems to suggest UNC or permissions but I don't know where to go from here.

We've seen this error when the system was under load using SharePoint 2013 workflows. We tracked it back to problems with the distributed cache service. The fix is supposed to be applying CU3 or CU4 for the AppFabric Cache and potential changing some of
the timeouts for the distributed cache. Take a look at this article:

Excel web access: Parameters in external data sources not supported???

I have a SharePoint 2013 site with Excel services.
The site itself has a Current User Filter Web Part which gives filter value [userID] to a Excel web access -web part.
In the Excel itself I have a named area(UserIDfromSharePoint) defined as a parameter.
This parameter is being used in a Microsoft Query into an SQL database table:
Select * from [MyTable] where UserID = ?
The question mark is set as a parameter to the named area UserIDfromSharePoint.
When I set the Excel Web Access -web part to show my workbook, I get the following error:
"We're sorry. We can't open the workbook in the browser because it uses these unsupported features: • PivotTable reports that are set to refresh
when the item in a report filter changes, or external data ranges (also called query tables)
that use parameters"
Is this really true???!??
If I have understood correctly, this has been an issue since the dawn of SharePoints Excel web services.
Does Microsoft really in this age of big data assume that all the SQL queries should be unfiltered or static?
My table has over 3M rows, so it is not possible to bring the whole dataset into excel and filter there. I'll have to say to the customer that we need to build a reporting table into which we'll aggregate the data first rather than querying the necessary
information...

Hi,
Do you mean that you have Office 2007 and Office 2010 both installed in you computer?
Based on my test, I copy a Access 2010 database into a computer only installed Offic 2007, then using Excel 2007 to import Access database data, no error occurred.
So double click the Access database to see whether the databased is opened with Access 2007 or Access 2010. If it is opened with Access 2010, then try to save it as Access 2007 to
check the issue.

EXCEL Web Query - load into SAP via Web dynpro or standard ABAP

Hi everybody
I was wondering if you can run an EXCEL WEB Query from abap and then upload the data retrieved from the web into SAP using either a web dynpro application or standard SAP.
For standard ABAP one could probably run the EXCEL web query by executing some code such as
call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>execute
exporting
document = 'your excel web query file'.
You could then save the data and using GUI_UPLOAD get it into sap.
I'd really like to do it via a web dynpro application.
Any ideas anyone.
For guys who've never used EXCEL web queries --quite easy.
Open EXCEL
go to Import External Data
Choose New web query
Enter URL of where you want to retrieve your data from such as YAHOO finance etc.
For example to get the components of the Dow Jones Composite Index (^DJA) use this url
http://finance.yahoo.com/q/cp?s=%5EDJA
click the yellow arrow on the table data you want to import. The arrow will turn Green and press IMPORT
Then enter the cell number where you want to start importing data
Hey presto you've got your data from the web.
Cheers
jimbo

when you create a new webquery, in the properties, you can set when the page should refresh (data fetch to happen), you can set that to refresh at file open.
then you can use either OLE or gui_upload to upload the excel to read the data.
have couple of question:
why do you want to choose excel webquery ?=> is it because the ability to get unstructured data from the web?
what sort of data you are trying to read from the web?=> most of data centric sites (forex, stock quotes) will have either RSS feeds or some web APIs to get data which can be easily consumed by ABAP

New option to open custom Excel content type in Excel Web Access

Hi,
This question is specifically for Sharepoint Online if that affects the possible solution.
I would like a custom content type with Excel template to open up in Excel Web Access when a library's New>"My Content Type" option is chosen. I have configured the content type (deriving from "Document"), pointed it to the spreadsheet
template I've uploaded, added the content type to the library and set the library to "Open documents in the browser".
However when I choose the new option for the content type it always opens it in the Excel desktop client. If I then save the document to the library, then it does view and edit in Excel Web App after that.
Is there any way for the initial "New" Excel document to start editing in Excel Web App?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

Make sure Office 2011 is fully updated. It shouldn't have a problem opening those documents.
When I open a 97 - 2004 workbook, it states that it needs to be converted. That may be what is crashing on your copy of Office.
Have you tried creating a new account and see if you can open them there.

How can I resize the size of the Excel web part?

I have a spreadsheet that i want to use to populate a page in my SharePoint site. i copied the workbook to the site, created the page and added the excel web part. then i linked the workbook to the web part and submitted. it displays but only
about 25% of the sheet shows. i dont want to use the thumbs to scroll inside the web part. i want the web part sized to show the entire spreadsheet. cant seem to find how to size the web part. Can some kind soul help me out here.
thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to resize the size of the Excel web part.
Per my knowleadge, most of the time excel web parts turn out ugly, due to the fact that they’re rendered in an iframe and therefore the browser doesn’t resize the container to fit the content.
As a workaround, we can edit the page where you want the resizing to happen, add in a content editor web part, and paste the following code into the source editor.
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.4.2/jquery.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(function () { // resizes excel webparts
$("td[id^='MSOZoneCell_WebPart']").each (function (i, e) {
var findIframe = $(e).find ("iframe:first");
if (findIframe && findIframe.attr ("scriptforiframecontent"))
bindEwaLoaded ("#"+e.id);
function bindEwaLoaded(obj) { // bind event to the web part
$(obj).bind ("ewaLoaded", function (e) {
var b = $(e.target).find ("iframe:first").attr ("postedbackalready");
if (b == undefined) // loop until iframe is ready
setTimeout (function() { $(e.target).trigger ("ewaLoaded"); }, 1000);
else // try to resize now
ewaSetSize (e.target);
}).trigger ("ewaLoaded"); // first trigger now
function ewaSetSize(obj) { // resize elements
// configure paddings
var excelObjectWidthPadding = 50;
var excelObjectHeightPadding = 50.
var w, h, div1, div2;
var e = $(obj).find ("iframe:first").contents().find ("table.ewrnav-invisibletable-nopadding:last");
if (e.length != 0) { // excel table
w = e.width ();
h = e.height ();
div1 = $(obj).find ("table:first> tbody:first> tr:eq(1)> td> div> div");
div2 = $(div1).find ("table:first> tbody:first> tr:eq(1)> td> div");
} else {
e = $(obj).find ("iframe:first").contents().find ("div.ewrchart-img-div");
if (e.length != 0) { // excel chart
w = e.width ();
h = e.height ();
div1 = $(obj).find ("table:first> tbody:first> tr:eq(0)> td> div> div");
div2 = $(div1).find ("table:first> tbody:first> tr:eq(1)> td> div");
if (w == 0 || w == undefined) { // loop until content is ready
setTimeout (function() { ewaSetSize (obj); }, 1000);
} else { // do resize
w += excelObjectWidthPadding;
h += excelObjectHeightPadding;
div1.width (w);
div2.height (h);
</script>

Check if this helps
The following illustration shows a sample EWA Web Part with a Full toolbar. This example shows the workbook in Worksheet view, and includes the
Open menu, Data menu, and the Find
button. If the worksheet is shown in Named Item view, a
View also appears on the toolbar.
