How to save an excel file as CSV with semi-colon as data separator?

We are creating a flat data file to load the flat file data to our BW system with Excel. When we save the file, there are three kinds of CSV types for selecting from the "Save as type" list box:
CSV (Comma delimited)
CSV (Macintosh)
CSV (MS-DOS)
There is no CSV (semi colon delimited) type. If we pick CSV (Comma delimted) as the type, then when clicking the "Preview ..." picture icon under the "DataSource/Trans. Structure" tab of the InfoSource for this flat file (with the CSV radio button checked the Data separator default is ";"), the File Upload Preview window shows the data is messed up that some columns of the excel flat file are combined into one column.
Since the save type we picked is "CSV (Comma delimited)", then we try to change the default Data separator from ";" to "," in the preview selection screen, but still not helpful!
How to resolve the above problem?
Thanks

Hi Kevin,
This "," is defined in your windows setting. If you want to have ";" as separator then go to control Panel, select Regional Options, go to Numbers Tab and define the List separator as ";". After that when you will save your excel file as CSV(MS-DOS) it will have ";" as separator. This will make sure that the amounts are not broken in to two different fields while loading.
Else if you keep "," as separator then you can also go into the Excel and define all number fields as Number without thousand separator.
Let me know if you have any doubts in this.
Regards,
Rohit

How do I move my library to the desk top

I have many greyed out photos with ! I have tried importing into Aperture and now have iphoto library and iphoto library(1). Both seem to have different photos in them even though I only have one library. Neither have all of the photos from iphoto as the greyed out boxes have not imported. So I think I have to rebuild my library in iphoto in order to import them into Aperture. Or is there a better way?
The thing is I do not know how to move my library to the desk top before reimporting it. Where do I get the library from? Can you also tell me where the option key is I don't seem to have one labelled option on my keyboard.
Any help will be welcomed.

The ! or ? turns up when iPhoto loses the connection between the thumbnail in the iPhoto Window and the file it represents. The most common cause of this is User Activity in the iPhoto Library Folder. Have you altered, moved or renamed anything in the iPhoto Library Folder?
If you haven't, then try rebuilding the database. Hold down the apple and option keys and launch iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
The iPhoto Library Folder is at Home/Pictures, and within it there are three folders:
Originals are the photos as they were downloaded from your camera or scanner.
(ii) Modified contains edited pics, shots that you have cropped, rotated or changed in any way.
This allows the Photos -> Revert to Original command - very useful if you don't like the changes you've made.
(iii) Data holds the thumbnails the the app needs to show you the photos in the iPhoto Window.
If you want to start again, it's the Originals that you want.

Hi NiCoder,
You have a numer of different options to get data from the DIAdem Data Portal to Excel:
1) Save to TDM or TDMS file and use the free TDM Excel Importer to load the data into Excel
2) Save to CSV file and use Excel's built-in ASCII file import feature to load the data into Excel
3) Load the gfsexcel.dll GPI-DLL and use the "File >> Save as..." option to export an *.xls data file
4) Use a custom VBScript to automate any of the above 3 options
5) Use a custom VBScript to directly send each Data Portal data channel to a column of values in Excel via ActiveX
Options 1) and 2) are easiest if you want a purely interactive solution. Option 1) will export all the data values as well as all the properties. Option 2) will export all the data values and the name of each channel in the Data Portal, but none of the other properties. If you choose to use option 3), know ahead of time that this feature is limited to 255 columns and will not export any custom properties, just the properties that existed back in DIAdem 8.1. Option 4) can add in all the custom properties that are missing in option 2). Option 5) can export all the data and all custom properties, but it is also the slowest option and involves the most programming.
Let me know what sounds best to you,

How to save an excel file as .txt on a mac?

I am trying to upload products for sale on Amazon. They have an Excel template that you use to do the upload. The problem is that you have to save the file as tab delimitated .txt. How do I do that on my Mac??

If you're going to be doing this on a regular basis, consider Numbers from the App store for $15, which is the Apple program equivalent to Excel.

How to save 150MB BLOB file in the database(SQL server)?

Dear experts,
I have written some code to save BLOB into a MS SQLserver7.0 database as follows:
PreparedStatement ps=connection.prepareStatement("INSERT INTO jdbctest" + "(id, content, image) VALUES (?,?,?)");
ps.setString(1,"2");
ps.setString(2,"L11.avi");
ps.setObject(3,data);
It works for upto 12MB but for files that are as big as 150MB I always get an SQLException as follows,
"Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
<<no stack trace available>>" .
The SQLserver7.0 database is running on NT server 4. The client machine is SGI UNIX. I'm using i-net JDBC driver.
It seems I should break the BLOB into chunks before saving into SQLserver but I don't know how to do it.
Can someone please advise?
THANKS!
Yu

Could you tell me more about it? Thanks.Depends on the application.
For example for internal use you can set up a shared drive and then everyone gets a mapped read only access to it. Then you use a direct drive reference.
For external, or just wider internal distribution, you could set up a ftp server. Then the address is just an ftp address.
I believe there are other variations which can be implemented via browsers and support by the websever. For example loading a word doc via the browser.
The advantage to the above is that you don't have to push it into the database and it allows for some more flexible storage alternatives. The disadvantages are all the things you might want a database for - like concurrency checking and a single source.

How do I get my Mac Book Pro desk top back to the right size?

My son was using my Mac Book Pro this morning and managed to enlarge both the desk top and any browser I use - Safari, Firefox etc. I am unable to get them back to the right size and have to keep shifting across to see what files I have etc. Can anyone give me advice on how to put it back to normal. I have tried looking at 'view options' and also in trackpad, mouse and keyboard in preferences but to no avail. Note that the files on the desk top are not smaller or bigger - it is the actual desktop which has increased in size and is no longer contained within the frame of the screen. Would be grateful for any help and thank you.

Did you try CONTROL and two finger drag on the trackpad?
Ciao.

On Lion OS why do new icons not appear on the desk top either from drag and drop of scanning onto

There seems to be an error on Lion OS which I installed recently. If you drag files onto the desk top they disappear. However, they can be found in finder. If you scan direct to the desk top they also do not appear. Is there a bug?

Sounds to me like you have a corrupt plist file.
First thing I would try would be to simply relaunch your Finder and see if that sorts your problem.
>ForceQuit>Finder>Relaunch
If not navagate to com.apple.desktop.plist and delete.
Finder>GO>(option Key)Library/Preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist
or in Finder shortcut ( ⇧⌘G) copy and paste:
~/Library/Preferences/
delete the com.apple.desktop.plist
Relaunch your Finder again.
The deleted plist will rebuild itself to default setting after Finder relaunch

How do I save a PDF as an excel file when the PDF is horizontal. Adobe tries to rotate the page, but the data is entered in an horizontal format.

How do I save a PDF as an excel file when the PDF is horizontal. Adobe tries to rotate the page, but the data is entered in an horizontal format.

Thanks for the quick reply. I figured out how to get the desired results by using tagging. For anyone who may reference this post in the future, I went to "Customize" in the top right corner of Adobe, then selected "Create new tool set...", looked under "accessiblity and found the "tag" option. Hit ok, tag is added to the toolbar. Then I highlighted the dataset in the PDF that was relevant to the output format, then clicked "tag", saved as spreadsheet. Sorry I can't provide more details on how tagging works or if there's a more elegant solution available, but I'm sure one's out there.
