9.3.4 Update Broke HyperLinks to Excel Spread Sheets located on Same Domain.

I have created company procedural documents in PDF using Adobe Pro 9.3.3.
These procedures contain hyperlinks to Excel spreadsheets that are located on an Internal Domain File Server. When I click on the Hyperlink using Adobe Reader 9.3.3, Excel launches and opens the spreadsheet . Adobe Reader or Adobe Pro 9.3.4 won’t open the link. Adobe 9.3.4 pops up a Window saying the spread sheet cannot be found, make sure you type the name correctly so on and so on. I Click OK on the first pop up, a second Adobe Pop-up window opens saying "Could Not Open the file" followed by the correct path to the spread sheet. I just tested it on a computer running Adobe Reader 9.3.3 and the hyperlinks worked fine. I then Upgraded Adobe Reader to 9.3.4, absolutely no other changes, and the hyperlinks no longer work..Same pop up..Cannot find .xls"..."Could not open .xls"..
Hyperlink syntax being used is \\servername\sharename\folder\spreadsheet.xls . So what setting do I need to chase down in 9.3.4 to correct this? What changed in 9.3.4 from 9.3.3?

We are experiencing a similar problem with Reader 9.3.4
We have training products produced in Acrobat 6, as PDFs which have hyperlinks to run Flash movies (SWFs). The products are installed from CD onto users' hard drives.
The products have worked on hundreds of PCs and Macs, but as each customer updates to Reader 9.3.4 they report failure to open the SWFs.
The SWFs are organised in a hierarchy of folders depending on exact topic. All the movies are inside a "data" folder, then main topic folders, down to sub-topic folders.
I have found that the PDF hyperlinks will open a copy of the relevant SWF if it is placed in the same folder as the calling PDF, but not when it is in its rightful position down the path.
The initial error message shown when files are in their correct folders says e.g. "Cannot find anchoring_one.swf" suggesting that only the filename is called and not the path. However the second message, displayed when the first is acknowledged, says e.g. "Cannot open data/anchoring/anchoring_one.swf" So the hyperlink IS outputting the full path, but somehow it it is being truncated to file name only.
Seems that the call is produced from the hyperlink correctly, and registers with the system as full path. Then the call is passed forward to a function which should actually open the file and here loses its path, so file-open fails and returns a "Cannot Find" message. The return code from this function is passed back as a failure, to the prior function which still knows the path. This prior function then issues the "Cannot Open" message, including the full path.
Is is totally impractical for us to rewrite and re-issue the programs in any other format, or stop thousands of independent customers from upgrading to Reader 9.3.4
I hope Adobe can fix this issue VERY quickly.

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity?

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity? I am using a MACBook Air

just read this in an other answer:
Pages can open docx files, Numbers can open xlsx files. Each can export to can export .doc or .xls to the newest Word or Excel format.respectvely, but not to the more recent .docx or .xlsx.
Translation is not perfect in either direction. Numbers and Excel handle some similar features (eg. pop-up menus vs data validation) differently, and the translator cannot translate from one implementation to the other.
If much of your work is going to be transferred between your machine and Windows machines running either MS Excel or MS Word, with editing taking place at both ends of the tunnel, then you'll probably be better off with Office, or one of the Office clones on the Mac end.

The fact that Excel can import a csv file doesn't make it an excel file.
If you have a csv file then you must use a csv driver or just use other code (not jdbc) to access it. There is, normally, a ODBC (nothing to do with java) text driver that can do that.

Problem in writing data to excel spread sheet

Hi Folks,
I have developed a jdbc application that writes data to excel spread sheet.while trying to write data to excel, it could not write date values properly.it is writing 00.00.0 for all the date feilds.
Can some one help here.
Thanks in advance.

You can try VistaJDBC at http://www.easyhr.com.au/software/easy_mdb_mde_compactor.htm .
Otherwise you can write your code to csv/xml/dbase III format, since Excel can open those file format easily.

Hello, if you have the font that Photoshop is supposed to use to write the barcode, and each image is also listed in the spreadsheet, you can use the little known feature called variables: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7417a.h tml

Exporting each articles button names to an Excel Spread Sheet or other form

Is there a way to export a list of all the button names in each article to an Excel spread sheet or some other form? If someone knows of a script that does this that would work to. The button names are based on their function: OL = Overlay, TAB = Tab and BTN = Button. Here is an example of one of the articles that we have gone through and named the buttons and what they do. We just do not want to have to go to each button in each article and copy and past it to an Excel doc.

@stephen0218 – with the following line or the ones that you are using:
app.documents[0].buttons.everyItem()
you will hardly address all buttons in a document.
At least not in a document that is prepared for ADPS.
You'll get just the ones that sit plain on the page: not inside groups, not inside other objects like rectangles or states of MultiStateObjects (MSOs).
You will have more luck if you are using "allPageItems" and sorting out the buttons.
But be aware that "allPageItems" is blind to objects (also buttons) in states of MSOs that do not belong to the active state.

Create new users from an excel spread sheet

Hi Everyone.
I am very new to SAP and I have only done the ABAP programming course last month.
To make mme become familiar with ABAP - I was given a task of creating users from an Excel spread sheet - This will be used later on when we implement the new SAP system and decommision the legacy system.
I am just wondering If anyone has created such program - I would appreciated If I can have a copy So I can learn how it is done -
At the moment, I was thinking of using BAPI_USER_CREATE1 and BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMIT to create users and optimise the creation call. Is there any thing else that I should be aware of ? I'd be appreciated if someone drop me some ideas - Thanks in Advance

Hi Samantak.
Thanks for your quick response.
Since posting the question, I discovered that within 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' sub-call statements - comit is already done. Now my questions are:
1) Do I still need 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMIT' to optimise the CREATE new newusers call ? Apparently, yes.......I am curious for the reason 'why' since comitting is already done.
2) I did an interactive call of the 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' - a user id was actually created in the system. Now, my second question is.. Is there a way of calling 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' without comitting the data (i.e. create user record on file)..
I want to call this whout comitting because I want to sort out the number of 'good' records from the supplied data list - and presenting the success percentage to the users before comitting the data.
Thanks

SAP BO XCelsius : Drilldown from pie chart to raw data ( Excel Spread Sheet) in Xcelsius

Hi,
I am working on a dashboard where my requirement says, Drill down data from Pie-Chart to Raw data ( Excel Spread sheet).
Clicking on one pie should show me the required data in Excel format
May I know if this is possible to create from Dashboard design tool SAP R4
Thanks
Javeed

Hi Javeed,
Drilling data from pie charts is very much possible. The data drilled down can be shown either in spread sheet format via components called "Scorecard" "List View". But if its specified that you need the current data drilled down to a separate excel spread sheet only then, you may need to use the third party components for it.
There are many such components available for free. There are components available which are paid as well. You will have to find out which ones are free. Check out the threads below.

Uploading excel spread sheet using gui_upload

Can any one guide me for how to upload excel spread sheet using function gui_upload.

Use the FM gui_upload.

            has_field_separator     = ''
       TABLES
            data_tab                = tl_data

File name is string type so convert it into string as shown above. Now give the path of the required file and give the required extension. Extension is necessary. Give EXL fr excel sheet and TXT for notepad file etc. Call the FM and u will get all the data in the internal table tl_data.
Now once u get all the data in tl_data u can split it into ure required internal table as shown below.
Write the below logic after calling the above FM.
LOOP AT tl_data .
*--Taking the contents of the input file leaving the header part
      PERFORM split_and_save USING tl_data-line.
    ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.

      Splitting the contents from the input file and saving them into
      an internal table
     -->P_TL_DATA_LINE text
FORM split_and_save USING fp_data.
*--Local data declaration

    ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE inputtab TO <fs_field>.
    IF NOT sy-subrc IS INITIAL.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
*--Extract source data
    CLEAR tl_data.
    READ TABLE tl_data INDEX sy-index.
*--Populate the target
    <fs_field> = tl_data-line.
ENDDO.
*--Append this record
APPEND inputtab.
ENDFORM.                    " split_and_save
The above code will give u the required internal table.
