Acrobat 8 Professional - exporting data to spreadsheet issue

When I export data from a data set to an excel spreadsheet, the "order" of the fields/items changes. This seems to happen regardless of the "tab order" I set on the pdf form or the "sort" feature option on the data set file. How can I control the order in which the items appear when the data is exported into a spreadsheet? For example, I want the data from the forms that includes the individual's name and demographics to appear in the first few columns of the spreadsheet, followed in subsequent columns by the responses to questions they enter.
Thank you - K. Cox

I'm using Acrobat 9 Professional and I'm having a similar problem.
The data collected from multiple PDF forms comes into Excel great, but the columns are alphabetized by the name given to the form field in the PDF.
I'm working with a form that has over 60 fields. My workaround so that the data in Excel will be in the same order as my PDF form is to put letters in front of the name of the form field. Ex: aName, bAddress, cCity
There has got to be a better method than what I am using.

CR 2008 Export Data to Excel Issue

I have developed report in cr 2008 and embed it in vs 2005 window application. when i export that report to excel, i have to choice Excel and Excel Data Only. I tested both option but my exported report have extra blank columns and rows. That is very defficult to remove these extra rows and columns. Is there any solution that report exported like cr 9.
Thanks
Rafique

The way exporting to excel has changed. Since this does not work in the CR designer either, you will have to modify your report as described in the article [Exporting to Microsoft Excel|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/10d3ba69-951e-2b10-3093-e3cf287a57c9?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]

Issues with Adobe Acrobat X Professional

Hello,
Currently, my team is facing several issues while using Adobe Acrobat X Professional.
Description about the issues: Here, users have been migrated from Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional to Adobe Acrobat X Professional. But in case of Adobe Acrobat X Professional, while opening and saving the eForms, users are facing below issues:
1) While opening - Low disk space error: Currently eForms are saved to one file share and and while opening the eForm, users are get ting low disk space issue even though the space is neither low on local machine nor on the file server.
2) While saving the eForm after signing it, it throwing the error - The document could not be saved. This file is already opened. Even though the document is not opened by another user. Please note that preview pane is not enabled on the respective local machines.
3) Addition to above, please let me know how we can make any site's DNS Name as trusted in the software itself so that eForms or other PDF document can be opened without any issue.
4) Addition to above, please also comment on the eForms database connectivity of the software with SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server 2014 - whether there is any incompatibility with Adobe Acrobat X Professional.
Request your assistance.

Submit button issue in Acrobat 8 Professional/LifeCycle Designer

I am using Acrobat 8 Professional and LifeCycle Designer 8.0 on a PC with XP Pro. I first made forms using the default email submit button and had an XML data file submitted.
I'm now making the forms to submit as a pdf file rather than an XML file. I selected a regular button rather than the email submit button provided and made it a submit button to be submitted as a pdf.
The forms are being sent as pdf files attached to emails using Outlook. The issue is that every computer has a different "reaction" to this submit button. My computer (PC), when I tested the forms,everything was fine - Outlook opened and I was able to submit the file. On another PC in my office, when she clicked the submit button, nothing happened at all. On a PC at home, I got an error message "this operation is not permitted." And someone on a Macintosh did not even get a submit button showing up on the pdf.
We need to be able to send these files out so that everyone can complete them easily. I would appreciate any ideas on how to make the submit button so that it works on all platforms and computers.
Thank you so much,
Marcy

Thank you to you both for your suggestions.
Actually, Bill, this will not be a controlled environment at all. We want to be able to email forms to all of the 80 parents in the school, and have the parents complete them as pdf's and submit the information back to us as a complete pdf form. This opens up the potential for 80 different computers/ISPs/environments. And of course, my supervisor wants it seamless and easy with no glitches for all 80!! So as you can see, I have my challenge with this project.

Acrobat 9 Professional forms missing data after upgrade to Adobe Reader 10

My principal has a macbook pro with OS 10.6 on it, and Acrobat 9 Professional. One of the Xerox technicians in our district came around and updated Adobe Reader on her computer to AR 10. This caused her computer to lose the license key for Acrobat 9 Professional. Now all the of the data that she had saved in forms done in Acrobat 9 Pro has been lost. When she opens these files, the forms are blank. Is there any help for recovering the data that was lost from these files?

As long as the tech did not remove Acrobat, it should still be there. I am not that familiar with MACS, but that is the case for Windows. I would suggest that the tech be requested to rectify the issue. It may be that she just needs to open Acrobat and then the file. It may be that a MAC has a file association like the PC, and in that case she needs to set the file association back to Acrobat.
If she maintains both AA9 and ARX on the machine, she should also update them. It may be an update issue that is causing the data to not be seen. Some versions have had problems with seeing the data unless the cursor is in the field of interest. So is the data really still there or not?
Hope my limited thoughts about the MAC is of help. I am sure that some MAC folks will be by to give help.

Data load issue with export data source - BW 3.5

Hi,
We are facing issues in loading data with the help of export data source.
We have created export data source of 0PCA_C01 cube. With the help of this export datasource, we are loading data to other custom cube. Scenario is working fine in development server.
But when we transported objects to quality server data is not getting loaded to custom target cube.
It is extracting zero records. All transports are ok and we have generated export datasource in quality before transports .Also regenerated export datasource after transport and activated infosource, update rule via RS* programs. Every object is active but data is not getting extracted.
RSA3 for 80PCA_C01 datasource isn't extracting any record in Quality. Records getting extracted in development. We are in BW 3.5 with patch level 19.
Please guide us to resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Aditya

Hi
Make sure that you have relevant Role & Authorization at Quality/PRS.
You have to Transport the Source Cube first and then Create a Generate Export Data Source in QAS. Then, replicate data sources for BW QAS Soruce System. Make sure this replicated Data Source in QAS. Only then can transport new update rules for second cube.
Hope it helps and clear

Issues in exporting data from SAP tables in SE16 to excel

1.How can I save an sap table (displayed through SE16) in ECC6 into a pivot table in excel. [ I have seen this option in R/3 4.7, but do not see it in ECC.]
2.How can I copy all the rows of a 3000 row SAP table in SE16 and paste the values into excel. I need to do this in one shot and not page by page.
3.What option do I need to select inorder to preserve the formating of the values while saving as a local file in a spreadsheet format. All the values with leading zeros,like company codes gets saved with only their numeric portion when I save a SAP table as a local file. for eg company code 0001 gets saved in excel as just 1,company code 0056 gets saved as 56 etc. How do I prevent this? What option do I need to set in SAP in order for the values to be downloaded as is, without any truncation of leading zeros.

1. I don't know. How about creating a pivot after exporting data
2. System->List->Save->local file->clipboard
Then paste whole lot in Excel
3. This is a problem with Excel, not SAP. SAP exports with leading zeroes.
You could export as flat file & import into Excel into a spreadsheet with an appropriate numbering format.

Problem exporting data in Acrobat Pro 9.0 from secured response form

Hello,
I made a form in Livecycle 9.0 and am distributing it through Acrobat Pro 9.0 - using Acrobat.com's form distribution application - in several cycles to see how varying the levels of security of the form will affect users (the folks who will be filling out the forms), once they get the forms. I want to see how many passwords they have to enter, what they can do, what they cannot do with the form.. I've been sending unsecured and secured forms out, to test.
The problem I have now is, when I receive my permissions protected, secured forms back, I cannot EXPORT the data. Both the "Export" and "Archived" buttons are greyed out, and even when I remove the security settings from File--> Portfolio Properties, nothing changes.
I'm locked out of the collected data!
It's easy to export data from unsecured response forms (without permissions protection), but I would prefer to limit the amount of manipulation users can do to the forms (aside from commenting, filling them out, and signing them).
The secured forms perform great on the Acrobat Reader - user (form-filler) end, restricting printing, modifying text, etc, but they return to me in Acrobat Pro inert. I'm completely stumped to how I can get data out of them. I would sure appreciate any help!
Thanks,
Chenster

Why Acrobat x professional is changing the text formatting specifically the font family and the font size of the text in my pdf on exporting it to Microsoft word file format ?How should i stop Acrobat x professional from doing that so that i get an exactly same word file on exporting it from its pdf counterpart?

I was testing the preciseness & efficiency of Adobe acrobat x professional's doc conversion capabilities. As i have to take a document editing project in future which is going to need lot of pdf to word and vice versa conversions . What I did was I created a test word document converted into a pdf using a pdf maker in my word 2007 , Acrobat did convert the document from word to pdf keeping everything in the source file intact , However when i tried the other way round and attempted to convert the same pdf to word 2007 file format I lost my formatting ?So the font that I used to create the pdf are the ones taken from word 2007 which i believe is using the fonts that are installed in my computer. Any suggestions on how to preserve the formatting of the document after converting it from pdf to word file format?
Regards

Issue to export data from sql to excel

I have MS SQL 2008 Developer version and visual studio 2008. I'm using SSIS Import and Export Wizard on the VS2008 to create a simple package to export data from a table using a sql query to excel file (.xlsx), but I got the following
error messages:
[Destination - Query [37]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E21.
[Destination - Query [37]] Error: Cannot create an OLE DB accessor. Verify that the column metadata is valid.
[SSIS.Pipeline] Error: component "Destination - Query" (37) failed the pre-execute phase and returned error code 0xC0202025.
The SQL query is
SELECT [BusinessEntityID]
      ,[PersonType]
      ,[NameStyle]
      ,[Title]
      ,[FirstName]
      ,[MiddleName]
      ,[LastName]
FROM [AdventureWorks2008].[Person].[Person]
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
A Fan of SSIS, SSRS and SSAS

Or another way is to save the package created by Export Import wizard, open it in BIDS and add a Derived column task before the Excel destination to do explicit casting of the columns to your required unicode datatypes.

Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???

Has anyone had issues with Administration\Data Import/Export\Data Import???
I have a client who has recently upgraded from V2007 to V8.81. They were succesfuly using this standard function to import supplier prices to their master price list, but now it has failed?
I have looked at the file they are importing and it appears to be fine.
On closer inspection, it did contain approx 46,000 entries, so I took the first 1,000 and created a test file, which imported fine.
The only issue I found was Speed, with the test file of 1,000 records taking about 30 Mins to import. This appeared to get slower and slower the further through the file it got!
Based on this, I have estimated that the whole file would takle about 13 hours to import. The client say that when they used to run it on version 2007 it was far quicker?
In practice, it does appear to run, but the speed is the issue. Having said this, I set the whole file to run last night (over night)and this morning it had appeared to hang after about 2,307 rows, with nothing else being updated.
Has anyone any ideas or is aware of performance issues like this?
Thanks,
Ian

Always an option, but would you give your clients access to this tool?
Not sure really.
I have uploaded a copy of their database onto my test system and run the same routine. Its equally as SLOW
I can't gauage if its an issue with 8.81 that 2007 didn't have, as I only have the client's word on it, however I have no reason to disbelieve them.
Kind regards,
Ian
