Using Excel as a Datasource

I created a report that will use Excel as a datasource. The report runs fine from my desktop. I would like to place this report on the Business Objects Server. Can anyone tell me what I would need to do in regards to the excel file.
In addition to this issue, when I moved the excel file to a shared folder and reconfigured the system dsn, the report would not run. I received an error message: could not decrypt data. Any help would be appreicated. Thanks.

Hi
Put the excel file on a network drive which is accessible by the server.
Create a Crystal Report using the Access/Excel DAO connection based on the above excel file.
Save it to the enterprise.
Hope this helps!!

  • Error using Excel as a DataSource for Report Builder 3.0 - ODBC connection

    Hi,
    I'm getting this error message below while trying to use excel as a datasource within Report Builder 3.0.  I can see the columns and rows but unable to display/run the report.  Using Excel 32 bit and have the driver and user dsn created under c:/windows/syswow64/odbcad32.

    Hi Cherise,
    Vishal's link looks good.
    I have commercial experience in migrating Crystal Reports to SSRS. When performing any type of migration it is always wise for the business requirements to be revisited. It is likely that the business requirements may have changed since the Crystal reports
    were initially developed, etc.
    I've done some research for you and the following link looks quiet impressive and offers a cheap trial, in terms of a direct migration. Please tell me how you get on; -

    I emphasis again I have commercial experience of lots of migration projects and it would be very unwise to not revisit the business requirements as part of the migration process.

  • XLSQL for using Excel (XLS) as datasource in VC

    Hi Benjamin,
    Hope you are having a good day. I know its been a while since you worked on this piece ([url] DATE issues when using BI JDBC Excel datasource in VC;url] ) but we are trying to do the same thing you had done. Use xlSQL to connect to an excel file as a datasource for VC modeling.
    We want to use the BI Java connector. I have loaded the JAR files and when we get to the Manage Connections, not sure what we enter for the Driver, URL, Schema, username and Password.
    What I now see if that the Connection Test (for the BI JDBC system) works fine with the following:
    Driver: com.nilostep.xlsql.jdbc.xlDriver
    Connection URL (Unix box): jdbc:nilostep:excel:/reports/spec (this is the folder where I have the xls file)
    FixedSchema: (should my excel file name go in here?)
    FixedCatalog: (should my excel sheet name go in here?)
    Username: none used
    Password: none used
    When I do all of this and search for TABLES in VC on that system, it says None found. Any light shed on this would be very helpful.
    Thanks,
    BR

    Hi,
    The most important guideline we used was this document:
    How Tou2026Configure a BI JDBC System for Visual Composer Version 1.03 u2013 March 2006
    LINK: http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/6209b52e-0401-0010-6a9f-d40ec3a09424?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
    Follow all the steps... Some remarks about the steps in this document:
    Step 7: add all additional .jar files that are in the /lib folder of the xlsql driver package
    Step 11 - 14:  ... skip this, after step 15 restart the whole j2ee cluster, this is really needed to load the .jar files
    Step 15: although optional and not the configuration you need to get it working for VC it is handy to configure this as it allows you to use the JDBC test page for debuging etc.
    The only 2 parameters you need to configure with this step is:
    Driver: com.nilostep.xlsql.jdbc.xlDriver
    Connection URL: jdbc:nilostep:excel:/reports/spec/
    ...Now restart the j2ee cluster...
    After the restart you can use the following url to see if the driver works: http://<hostname>:<port>/TestJDBC_Web/TestJDBCPage.jsp
    Continue the configuration to allow VC to access the driver you need to configuer a System object in the portal...
    Follow Step 16 an onwards...
    Step 26: Again only fill in the following:
    Driver Class name: com.nilostep.xlsql.jdbc.xlDriver
    Connection URL: jdbc:nilostep:excel:/reports/spec/
    Step 29,30 and 34,35: Usermaping Type can be left untouched
    Additional step (do this after step 33): To make the system visible in VC you must set the portal permission for the user that use VC to Read + Enduser. Also when used in runtime later the enduser should have Read+ Enduser permission to use the system object. We used the built-in group Authenticated User for this and set the permissions on this group to Read+Enduser.
    This should do the trick...
    FAQ 1 - after uploading a new (or overwriting an existent) XLS file to the folder the changes are not visible, how to solve this?
    ANSWER 1 -  restart the JDBC connector via /nwa > manage > applications > (search for jdbc) > Stop / Start
    FAQ 2 - after deleting a XLS file the data is still querieable, even after the restart of the jdbc driver?
    ANSWER 2 - this is some kind of caching bug, deleted files are only deleted when you restart the J2EE engine.
    FAQ 3 - after a restart of the jdbc driver, the first query firred in VC returns an error.
    ANSWER 3 - this is because the first time the XLS files are read and writen into a HSQLDB in memory database, this takes more time. after this the calls are made on this in-memory-copy of the XLS data.
    Hope this helps you...

  • Using Excel as  Datasource in Crystal Reports 8.5

    I have never used Excel as a source for Crystal data and I am having a bit of an issue I believe. I have an Excel file on my desktop that I am using as the datasource. Eventually it will be out on a network drive. I set up all my reports as blank reports so I do that. When it brings up the Data Explorer pop up I choose ODBC ---> then Excel Files and choose the file. I then add the sheet to the report, close the data explorer window and start designing my report. I drag the fields I want on there, but when I go and preview I don't see any data at all. I have also tried it with the Report Wizard, no go there either.  Is there something special I need to get the data to show up on there? Does it need to be formatted a certain way? Is it just easier to convert it over to an Access database? Any help anyone could suggest would be wonderful!
    Thanks
    Jami Benson

    I just checked something out and I figured out what I was doing wrong myself. It would seem that I was choosing the wrong sheet. One of the sheets, sheet 1, appears twice in the list. Once with the name of the whole spreadsheet, and once as just sheet 1. I was using the one with the name. It has the headings just no data. The other has the data and headings, just no name. Once I choose it, all seems to be well. '

  • Need flexibility on using Excel as datasource

    I found this tutorial: http://blogs.oracle.com/dataintegration/2010/03/connecting_to_microsoft_excel.html
    Is it just me or there simply no flexibility if you need to predefine data area (named range) before hand? Most use cases you'd want to automate ETL, and thus data source must support varying number of entries (rows) at the very least.
    Is there any work around for this?
    TIA

    For Excel this are the steps.
    Look into this link -http://odiexperts.com/step-by-step-procedure-to-read-excel-xls
    1. Create a DSN in ODBC
    2. Create a connection in Data server (topology) using sun odbc-jdbc driver
    3. Reverse the Excel using the selective reverse. While handling multiple sheets ODI defines them like a table (datastore) and names are populated based on sheet name say if sheet1 then Sheet1$ ,Sheet2$ and so on.
    Now you can use them as Source Datasource and use it in the interface as we do with other RDBMS datastore.

    From the error message, I suggest you can refer the Adrian's suggestion to check the date source connection string correctly.
    In addition, you can refer the following about how to Create a Data-Driven Coded UI Test to check your issue:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624082.aspx
    Or you can also try to use a Configuration File to Define a Data Source for coded UI test.

  • Excel as a datasource

    I have a Crystal report (currently it is Crystal 9 but we are migrating to XI R2) that uses an Excel file as the datasource.    It uses the Microsoft Jet OLEDB driver 4.0 and Excel 8 as the database type.   I am pointing to a shared drive (letter g) as the file location.   The user ID "Admin" appears with no password as default.  
    I uploaded this report to our Crystal Enterprise server when I try and preview it, the report keeps asking for a user ID and password.    Using Admin and no password does not work (or anything else I tried).   The "g" drive is mapped to the Enterprise server (just like my client computer) so it should be finding the file.   I also tried to remove the "Admin" password when specifying the datasource with the same results.
    So, are there any "tricks" to getting Crystal Enterprise to work with Excel as a datasource?

    Hi,
    I think Crystal report server  uses a different user profile to get to the network shared location behind the scene. Can you try and move the Excel file the same Box where Crystal Server is and republish to the server and test.

  • Use of DataSrc or DataSource

    Dear All,
    I am New to BPC.
    What is the Use of "DataSrc" or "DataSource" and InterCompnay Dimension in BPC.
    What is the Use of Insights & Custom Menus in BPC.
    Thanks alot in Advance,
    Regards,
    Satish.

    I would suggest attending a training course or opting for the RKT learning series to get more detailed information.  However, here is how I look at the components you are asking about.
    DataSrc - Is a dimension that helps to segment information in an application.  For example, storing data to members to identify the values stored, such as Manual entry, Allocated data, Journal data, Script based or calculated data, etc.
    Insight - Is a part of the application that when "turned on", is a predictive analytic component.  This process builds a duplicate application for presenting and evaluating data for a seperate reporting view, primarily a web based view that predicts where values are headed in the future, based on history and relationships/dependencies etc.
    Custom Menus - Are a very powerful tool that may be used to create a process for users in an interface that is managed in the excel by an administrator.  The menus are the pre-cursor to the BPF's that are also available for consumption. The menu's don't have all the bells and whistles that BPF's have, but are very useful for building user interface links to reports, input schedules, dat apackages and are all built and managed and presented in excel.
    Hope this helps.

  • How-to use Excel for the XML file input?

    Hello all,
    Following our discussion with Gerhard Steinhuber on the very nice tutorial from Horst Schaude , "How to upload mass data via XML File Input" , I am starting this new discussion.
    In the comments section of this previous cited tutorial, Rufat Gadirov explains how to use a generated XML from Eclipse instead of your XSD file as your source in Excel.
    However, in spite of all the instructions, I am still facing the same issue in Excel when I try to save my file as XML : "The XML maps in this workbook are not exportable".
    What I try to do is to create one or more Sales Orders with multiple Items in it from a XML File Input, using excel to enter data.
    The part with the File input is working (if I directly upload my file to the webDAV, it creates a sales order instance with multiple items).
    The only missing part is the Excel data input that I cannot make work. Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello Jacques-Antoine,
    I suppose that as you have tried to construct a map from the schema, you have taken the elements from the List level down. In this case I also can't export the map.
    But if you take the elements from the level MySalesOrderUploaded down, you'll get the exportable map (screenshots)

  • Using Excel with Visual C++ 6.0 (need a graph control that behaves as much like the one in CVI as possible)

    I hate to beat this to death but I was unable to find a
    clear answer to this question.  Does NI provide Excel control from within
    Visual C++ 6.0? 
    I read that NI supports the ANSI-C library only for Visual C++ 6.0 users:
    Thread : "Re: Benifits of using measurment
    studio for VC++ 6.0?"
    NI REP : drohacek
    Quote  : "we made the decision to support Visual
    C++ 6.0 users only through the ANSI-C interface and not through the Measurement
    Studio MFC-based class libraries."
    If there is a suggested way of controlling Excel from within Measurement Studio
    for Visual C++ 6.0 then I’d love to know it. 
    If not, can a plain statement be made basically stating that if you want
    to control Excel you can’t use a Visual C++ 6.0 environment even with Measurement
    Studio support?
    With .NET of course you can just decide to have Excel support added during
    project creation.  CVI can act as an ActiveX server and easily control
    Excel just by building off the examples shipped with CVI.  I see that
    there is support, using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ 6.0 Project Wizard,
    for taking existing CVI projects and converting them to Visual C++ 6.0 projects
    or for calling CVI libraries from a .dll from within Visual C++ 6.0.  I suppose I could do the work
    in CVI and then convert the project but I'm so deeply tied into all my MFC calls that I don't see
    how I can cleanly include the CVI libraries into my existing VC++ 6.0 projects.
    What I'm really after here is a visual graph control like the one in CVI that I
    can use from Visual C++ 6.0.  I purchased a 3rd party graph control for use
    in VC++ 6.0 that works well but isn't really visual.  I mean you can't
    enter any values in it until you run the program and fill it out programmatically. 
    Then you can see which columns are two narrow, quit the program, adjust the
    column width of your now empty control, and repeat, until you get the thing
    looking the way you want.  If I could call into Excel from within Visual
    C++ 6.0  the way I do from within .NET
    then I could use Excel to hold the table and just read in the values into my table
    control at run time.  Basically I'd use Excel as a visual development tool
    for all my tables.
    I do all my coding from within CVI and Measurement Studio for Visual C++
    6.0.  I'd use CVI for everything if I didn't depend so heavily on certain
    outside controlled C++ .dll's.  Could you please suggest then what I can
    do to get Excel support for Visual C++ 6.0?
    Last question :
    Is there any plan to ever have a NI table control like the CVI table control for
    use in Visual Studio?  One that you can
    completely set up before you do any compiling? 
    I imagine that the way Microsoft sets up their environment makes this idea impossible.  Otherwise someone would
    have come up with a truly “visual” table control before now.
    Thanks,

    Hello Grant
    You can most certainly use Excel with VC++ 6.0. Measurement Studio won't provided you with any classes to talk to Excel in VC++ 6.0. This is because Excel allows control via Automation and you can use its automation API to do anything you need with Excel. This is what CVI uses as well.
    You can see this MSDN article on how to set this up. This mentions VC.NET, but it should work the same way.
    Here is one that talks about VC 6.0 and Excel.
    Here is a code project article about this.
    Even with .NET, you have to do thru the Excel Automation support. Excel started shipping with Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) which are .NET wrappers about the Excel Automation object model. C++ Automation is definetely not as nice as .NET, BTW
    See this document for more information about the Excel object model.
    I would not recommend using the CVI Excel libraries if all you want to use them for is Excel automation. You will end up creating un-necessary dependencies and go through extra layers that way. You can make calls straight to Excel from VC++ without requiring CVI.
    One quick observation about your excel approach. If you decide to use Excel as your table, you might be requiring everyone who uses your application to have Excel installed on their machines. Just wanted to make sure this was acceptable to you.
    Have you looked at the Datagrid Activex control, which is one of the common controls that ships with Visual Studio? You can add it to Visual Studio by right-clicking and picking it from the list of installed activex control. If you have not already, you should check it out.
    Microsoft has made significant improvements in the number of controls they provide with .NET. They have a Datagrid control that seems to be what you need.
    Measurement Studio did add some high level classes for Excel and Word Automation that simplify some common tasks, but these exists for VS 2003 C++ and VS 2005 C++, not for VC 6.0. Underneath, we end up using the same Excel automation classes, so you can easily setup something similar for VC 6.0. Plus you can find alot of references online on how to use the Excel Automation object model with C++.
    We currently have no plans in Measurement Studio to create a table control unfortunately. I am assuming when you said graph, you actually meant table, since Measurement Studio already  provides a ActiveX graph controls for VC++ 6.0 that is very similar to the CVI graph.
    On a side note, VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?
    To summarize
    - Yes, you can use Excel with Vc++ 6.0 without mstudio.
    - Try using the Datagrid Activex control if you just need a table.
    - Measurement Studio provides high-level excel and word classes for VC++ 6.0
    - Measurement Studio provides a graph control for VC++ 6.0 which is very similar to the CVI graph.
    - Measuremnt Studio does not have a table control.
    - VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?

    Hi Darsh,
    You can use
    SharePoint chart webpart to display charts. Or you can use any jQuery charting library and feed data using JSOM or REST. Ex. high charts:

  • Retrieving sample basic using  Excel add in

    Hi I am having problems accessing the sample basic database using excel, I see the sample basic in Application/Database and I get an error which states that "Unable to load database[Basic]". I get this error for all the the sample databases. The system administrator said the databases were installed with the essbase, but I still can't retrieve them. Anyone has any suggestions as to why this may be occurring.Thanks,

    It's not a problem with the Add-In.The database was not Installed correctly. You need to rebuild the Sample Basic application. Can you check to see if all the DB files were installed.Look in the C:\essbase\app\Sample\Basic directory you should see these files, or atleast the outline.Basic.otlBasic.indBasic.esmBasic.tctEss000001.INDEss000001.PAGDo you know how to do this? If you want e-mail me and I'll walk you through it.Regards,Corey BidmeadClarity [email protected]
