4.1EA2 - Still problems with Excel import

Hello out there,
I just tried importing a .xlsx with 4.1.0.18.37 and I still have an old issue and a new one:
First, SQL*Developer seems not to determine the appropriate field length from the Excel file anymore. I usually uncheck the preview limit to 100 records. In my current import every text field was proposed as varchar2(26) even if there are just three characters in every record.
Second, and this is an old one, numeric fields cannot be imported properly. I get ORA-1722 invalid number. This was introduced with 4.1EA1 and still is not fixed yet. I run both SQL*Developer and the database (11.2.0.2 if that matters) with german localization. Oddly enough, the SQL written to the log (named *-bad.sql) runs without problems when executed afterwards.
I suspect SQL*Developer malformatting numeric values when sending it to the database. In the preview the numbers are shown with decimal comma, which is correct for display purposes and in the *-bad.sql they are correctly shown with decimal point which is what the database expects. So somewhere between these, there seems to be some NLS issue.

>>First, SQL*Developer seems not to determine the appropriate field length from the Excel file anymore. I usually uncheck the preview limit to 100 records. In my current import every text field was proposed as varchar2(26) >>even if there are just three characters in every record.
That's right, we're rounding up. Since we don't know how wide the actual stream is, we only previewed a 100 records, we round up to avoid problems at import time.
Click the dropdown control, i'm guessing you'll see your '3' there.

How to troubleshoot problems with Excel import

When I import a spreadsheet from Excel into Numbers, I get a notification window with a long list of errors encountered during the import. I can deal with the formatting issues, and I've managed to get rid of most of the "unsupported formulas" errors. However, I still have one stubborn "unsupported formulas" error. How do I get Numbers to identify which cell(s) have unsupported formulas that were removed on import from Excel?

There are some triangle symbols, but they refer to using a BOOLEAN as a number. That's not where the problem with unsupported formulas is, though. Numbers says that it replaced the cells that had unsupported formulas with the contents of the cell at the time of import, which I interpret as meaning that I should be looking at cells that don't contain formulas. My problem is that I have lots of cells that contain only numbers, and I somehow need to find that single cell that have an unsupported formula in the Excel version of the file.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.

2.1EA2 - Still problems with trigger text tab on table panel

I'm currently running SQLDeveloper 2.1 EA2 and I'm experiencing problems to display text of tables triggers.
In fact I have found that file displaying this text has an mistake : It's assumed that trigger owner is the same as table owner.
In file oracle/dbtools/raptor/oviewer/base/xml/tables.xml of extension oracle.sqldeveloper.oviewer.jar version11.1.1.63.10.
This file contains an section dedicated to triggers :
select dt.trigger_NAME, dt.trigger_type, dt.triggering_Event, dt.status, :OBJECT_OWNER sdev_link_owner,
dt.trigger_NAME sdev_link_name,'TRIGGER' sdev_link_type
from DBA_triggers dt
where dt.table_owner = :OBJECT_OWNER
and dt.table_name = :OBJECT_NAME;
And the source part :
select text sql
from dba_source
where name=:TRIGGER_NAME
and owner=:OBJECT_OWNER;
I Think the glitches is the owner=:OBJECT_OWNER.
I made some tests by replacing the table.xml in archive (I know it's hugly). My modifications are :
1) add an trigger_owner column in firsts selects
2) use :TRIGGER_OWNER instead of :OBJECT_OWNER
This seems to solve problems.
I don't know how to report this as a bug, bu I hope that someone of the devel team will push it forward to solve the problem on 2.1 final.

It's there; it's just very small. Consider either giving it some rows or column int values or a preferred size, or putting it in a JScrollPane with a preferredSize set.
another thought is to use a BorderLayout for the whole thing, and place the JScrollPane/JTextArea BorderLayout.CENTER, put the JTextField and JLabels in a JPanel using GridBag and placing this into the main BorderLayout.NORTH, and placing the buttons into their own panel which is added to the main BorderLayout.SOUTH.

Problem with Excel output format

Hi Guys,
I am creating a report in XML Publisher (not standalone). I am facing some problems could anyone please help me to figure out the issues.

Hi Mahi,
Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
1) What about the negative values?
if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
2)How can we align header or data?
Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
Please help.
Many Thanks,
Pragati

Problem with export / import

Hi everybody, I am having a problem with an import. I am doing an export with a value in an user exit:
EXPORT V_NLQNR = V_NLQNR TO MEMORY ID 'QUANTL'
And after I call import in another program:
IMPORT V_NLQNR = V_NLQNR FROM MEMORY ID 'QUANTL'.
But when I check the sy-subrc I am getting 4, so I don't get anything.
Does anybody why?? Is there a problem if I call the export from an user exit??
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I think you have the right idea.
As a suggestion I would name my variables to make it clear which data is being
exported/imported. I would also use different names on the left and right side of the = sign.
Here is a working example from programs that I use:
In the first program
   EXPORT intercodata FROM g_data_exp TO MEMORY ID 'INTERCOWOS'.
     where g_data_exp is declared as a global variable
In the second program
   IMPORT intercodata TO g_data_imp FROM MEMORY ID 'INTERCOWOS'.
     where g_data_imp is declared as a global variable
The syntax that you use ( p1 = dobj1 ) should work as well, just make sure that the variable v_nlqnr to the right of the equal sign has a value before the export.

Still problems with ID changing in Teaming 2.1?

Hi,
They are still problems with changing the ID from user in the eDIR when they are
will synchronized with the Teaming system?
In the past it was a very bad thing if the user name (ID) was a shortened form the
name of the user e.g. ssmith for Sarah Smith.
When "our" Sarah has married and her new name was e.g. Sarah Stone, new user ID is
sstone, the Teaming system can't "realize" that ssmith and sstone are the same user.
Is this problem fixed in the version 2.1?
THX
Andre

Hi,
A opened a request by Novell and get the answer that all is still the same since version 1.x.
Maybe this behavior will change in the version 4.x.
It's really sad that Teaming can't handle changed IDs.... really sad....
Than we have two ways... first, we change all our IDs to IDs with digits like 1234 or the second way... we use
SharePoint.... really sad.....
I'm wonder me that we are the only firm with such problem....

Problems with .aaf import in premiere pro cc

Hi,
So I'm having problems with importing an aaf file into premiere. The weird thing is it was working about a week and a bit ago, then stopped. I can't work out why, to my knowledge nothing has changed but if someone could point me in the right direction that would be massively appreciated.
I'm using premiere pro cc and avid media composer. I'm trying to export from avid and import into premiere. I'm creating an .aaf file in avid and trying to import into premiere. When I press import, the progress bar comes up and gets stuck instantly. I can close the aaf import window, but then it leaves the import files progress bar still up and premiere stops responding completely.
At first it worked fine, within premiere I can still use the aaf files already imported, I just can't import more (I can't even import the files I had previously done successfully). I just can't work out why?
Any help would be massively appreciated,
Thanks,
Jack

Problems with Excel 2007 and Essbase 6.5

Hi,
Two quick questions:
1. We are planning to upgrade our office to 2007, XP professional SP2 but still going to use Essbase excel add-in 6.5 for some users and Essbase 7.3 add-in for others. Has anyone faced any problems with this combination?
2. The only problem I encountered so far was when I double click a member name for retrieval, the pointer (cursor/icon) flickers / flashes continuously. But when I take the pointer out of the excel spreadsheet, the flicker goes away. Does anyone know a fix to this. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm admin of an hyperion essbase database.
I'm testing our addin 6.5.1 with excel 2007.
First problem evocated on retrieve is confirmed.
I continue my test and tell you if i find another problem.
What i would say is that old version can be unsupported but i'm sure we can use this addin on excel 2007, i hope.
Regards.

CAPS 5.1.3U3 problem with jar import

Since we installed update release 3 for JCAPS 5.1.3 we have the following problem with the Enterprise Designer:
1) In a jcd I click "Import jar file"
2) I add or remove a jar file (same project directory).
3) I click close.
result: I get an "Unexpected Exception": "A java.lang.StackOverflowError exception occurred. ..."
In our productive JCAPS we work still with 5.1.3U2 and there we do not experience the problem.
The repository.log does not report any regarding error.
Restarting the repository and clearing the enterprise designer's user cache do not change the situation.
Has anybody any idea what to do?
Heiner.

Hello Everybody,
Even I'm also experiencing the "java.lang.StackOverflowError exception" when I want to delete the imported JAR file from any JCD. Increasing the heap size to 1024KB also didn't work.
I suppose it is problem with the U3.

Still problems with uploading articles in folio builder

Hello,
Read much information on this forum but i still don't have a solution for my problem. And here is my problem.
I had a course how to create a digital publication. So went back to work and try to do the same as what i did at the course.
Installed InDesign CS5.5 and the last folio producer tools en folio panel. Than I create a folio via the folio panel en voila it was created. So far so good.
Than I try to add an article to this newly created folio but for some reason I can't get it in the folio and I got this message
An error has occured while updating article layouts.The InDesign file for the layout cannot be found. (Than in Dutch because I have a Dutch version)
So what I already tried is the following:
- use another Adobe-ID to log in the folio panel (no succes)
- uninstalled the publishing parts en reinstalled again the newest parts (no succes)
- create article via import (also no succes)
- create a local folio and than add a article (no succes)
- Also locate the InDesign file on another location (no succes)
When i create the article the spinner keeps on turning. When I than login to the digitalpublishing.adobe.com with the same adobe-id I see the article with a red frame around it. Which says "Corrupt layout"
Than I send the InDesign file of an article to someone else and he can upload this file without any problems. And I am sure I have all rights/permissions which I should have.
Is it possible that you can have problems with uploading articles because of network settings or combinations with other software?
Has somebody a solution for this really frustrating problem?

Anyone seen this problem with Excel 2003?

We're developing a Microsoft Excel-based app. The help system uses HTML Help (.chm) format, and works just fine with Excel 2007 and 2010. However, since a lot of potential users out there are still using older versions, we've been asked to adapt the app for Excel 2002 and 2003.
The help system works, more or less, with Excel 2002, but when we try it with Excel 2003 the tri-pane is missing. The default topic appears but the left-hand pane containing the navigation system (TOC, Index and Search) is missing. Consequently, users can't move away from the default topic. Has anyone come across this problem before, and do you know how to fix it?

I cannot help you with this one other than to say I haven't seen any other such reports. That may suggest it is worth checking for some small difference you haven't identified yet.
Of course it could also mean there aren't many people with that workflow.

Problem with iPhoto import from camera (gets stuck)

Hi, I am having an issue with an import from digital camera to iPhoto. I've had this camera and this MacBook for years without any trouble. The import I am trying to do has about 1600-some photos and a handful of short videos in it, but most are duplicates, so when the import starts, I tell it not to import the duplicates. iPhoto does its thing, but it gets stuck after about 205 new photos. The screen just stays on one image and looks as though it is still importing. I left it for hours and it never advanced. So I clicked the button to stop the import, which didn't seem to work, because the message "Photos are being imported to the photo library. Please wait for the export to complete" came up when I tried to quit iPhoto. So I had to Force Quit. When I reopened, fortunately my Library was intact and the photos that did go through went to a special "recovered" folder. I went through the process again in hopes that it was a glitch, but the same thing happens. I decided to delete the video on the camera that iPhoto seems to keep getting stuck on. This did not help. The same results (as described above) keep happening. I can't figure out what to do. I know I need new hardware sometime soon, but there should be a fix for this... Thank you.

Try using a card reader. That way you can open the memory card as it were an external volume, select and drag the files in small groups to a folder on the Desktop. That way you can isolate those files that are causing the problem.
If there are only a few files that won't cooperate you may have to sacrifice them so you can reformat the memory card using the camera and then test it with some test photos and videos.
Is it just videos that won't copy? See if you can determine which files are causing the problem.

HELP! Serious problem with CD import!

I have been using iTunes for two years now and I have encountered a problem I have never had before. I am trying to import a CD, but when I import it and listen to it on iTunes it skips and sounds terrible. When I play the CD on a CD player it has no problems with skipping. I've checked for dirt and scratches and there are none. The CD does have extra CD-Rom content on it, could this be a problem? I used the error correction feature on iTunes, it helps a little but the tracks still sound terrible.

Its protected most likly. Some protected CDs don't stop a program from ripping it completely but cause the ripped song to skip.
What you have to do if its a store bought protected CD, is use the program it recommeds using to rip to the PC (Most likly Windows Media Player) then use that program to burn the songs to a blank CD.
Put the newly created burned CD back in the PC and use iTUnes to import it
