Appending or Replacing data sets in DIAdem

I was wondering if there was an easy way to take new data points and append them to old data points already loaded into DIAdem.  Similarly I would be interested in just replacing the old data with the new
I have a data set I have uploaded from an excel file into DIAdem.  Within DIAdem I have manipulated data and made several graphs for presentations.  Since that first upload of data I now have acquired new data.  That new data is in the same format as the old data, it's simply that there are more data points now.  So it would be nice to know how to either append or replace the old data while keeping all the formatting.  
Right now the easiest way I've found is to copy and paste data into a new Excel file and upload it.  DIAdem scripts have proven buggy and inefficient.  I can't believe Excel would handle appending better than DIAdem.  There must be an easy way to do this that I am missing.  Any help would be appreciated.  

Hi Stysley,
Unless you're talking about a huge amount of data, I'd say the easiest and cleanest way to do this would be to delete all your channels in DIAdem and reload them from the (now larger) data file.  Then all you have to do in REPORT is hit the "Refresh" icon.
It sounds like you are loading your data files into Excel-- does that mean that you have ASCII data files to start with?  The best approach in that case would be to create a DataPlugin for the ASCII data file format and avoid the intermediate Excel step.  Then re-loading the data would be as easy as hitting the "Delete Internal Data" icon in the NAVIGATOR and then dragging the ASCII data file from the NAVIGATOR tree view into the Data Portal at the right of DIAdem.
If you'll post or email me ([email protected]) several of your ASCII files, I should be able to send you back a DataPlugin you can use.

  • Problem with a data set: DIAdem crashes

    Hi,
    I've got a problem with a data set. When I want to zoom in DIAdem-View, DIAdem crashes with the following message (translated from German ;-):
    error type: FLOAT INEXACT RESULT or FLOAT INVALID OPERATION or FLOAT STACK CHECK
    error address: 00016CB8
    module name: gfsview.DLL
    I've got some similar data set not showing such problems. Further on I scanned the data a bit, but in the 59000 points I didn't see anything special. I did try to delete "NOVALUE"s as well, but after that there still exist "NOVALUE"s.
    Does anyone have an idea what to look for?
    Thanks,
    Carsten

    Carsten,
    Could you please upload you Citadel database to the following FTP site:
    ftp.ni.com/incoming
    If you want to compress (ZIP) and/or put a password on the data, that's fine. Please send me a private email at [email protected] (with the file name and password if you put one on the file) once you have uploaded the file and I will check it out.

  • Diadem 9.1 - "Data set:Proper​ties" Query

    Within the Data entry window of Diadem Version 8.1 there is a drop down menu from the "Edit" header titled "Dat set properties....".
    Where is the equivalent feature within Diadem 9.1?

    Hi marine boy,
    That information is in two places as of DIAdem 9.x. The scaler data set properties are in the property window at the bottom of the Data Portal, just highlight the Data Set/Root level of your Data Portal (it's the blue cylinder icon at the top), then glance down to the property window. You will see the "Title", "Description", "Author", "Storage Date", and "Storage Time" properties there that you used to see in the dialog you mention.
    The remaining properties are the Data Set Comments, which you can now access by again right-clicing on the Data Set/Root level of your Data Portal (it's the blue cylinder icon at the top), then selecting "Data set comments..."-- this pops up a dialog to display/edit the Data Set Comments. These comments WILL be saved if you save the file as a TDM file.

  • Disobey the user profile date setting in module pool

    Hi all,
    I am working on a module pool. I have a request to disobey the user profile date setting dd/mm/yyyy to user requested date format dd-mm-yyyy.
    I understand that it can easily be done in SAPScript with command SET DATE MAST dd-mm-yyyy, but how to do it in module pool?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Wong.
    Follow the Steps Bellow
    --> Copy Search Help BU_DATE_CHAR to ZBU_DATE_CHAR using T-Code SE11
    --> Copy FM BUS_TOOLS_DATE_CHAR_EXIT to Z_BUS_TOOLS_DATE_CHAR_EXIT using T-Code SE37
    --> Open ZBU_DATE_CHAR in Change mode and add Z_ in the Start of Search help exit FM as we have copy new
    --> Active ZBU_DATE_CHAR it will not give you any Error message may be one Warning message but Ignore this.
    --> Active Z_BUS_TOOLS_DATE_CHAR_EXIT my will give you error message do the following Change
         in Changing Tab SHIP type SHLP_DESCR    " Change the Previous type with this one.
         in Tables Tab SHLP_TAB type SHLP_DESCT  " Change the Previous type with this one.-->
    --> After doing above changes.
    --> Add the following line of Code on line number 92 just before the line APPEND record_tab.
    REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '.' in record_tab-string WITH '-'.
    --> Activate both Search Help and FM
    now in the Search help filed in Module Pool you where using BU_DATE_CHAR use ZBU_DATE_CHAR
    I did the above way and it is working fine this way now When i Press F4 and select some date it show in the Field like 01-01-2009 Previously it was showing me 01.01.2009
    Please Reply if any problem,

  • What is open data set and close data set

    what is open data set and close data set,
    how to use the files in sap directories ?

    hi,
    Open Dataset is used to read or write on to application server ... other than that i am not sure that there exists any way to do the same ... here is a short description for that
    FILE HANDLING IN SAP
    Introduction
    • Files on application server are sequential files.
    • Files on presentation server / workstation are local files.
    • A sequential file is also called a dataset.
    Handling of Sequential file
    Three steps are involved in sequential file handling
    • OPEN
    • PROCESS
    • CLOSE
    Here processing of file can be READING a file or WRITING on to a file.
    OPEN FILE
    Before data can be processed, a file needs to be opened.
    After processing file is closed.
    Syntax:
    OPEN DATASET <file name> FOR {OUTPUT/INPUT/APPENDING}
    IN {TEXT/BINARY} MODE
    This statement returns SY_SUBRC as 0 for successful opening of file or 8, if unsuccessful.
    OUTPUT: Opens the file for writing. If the dataset already exists, this will place the cursor at the start of the dataset, the old contents get deleted at the end of the program or when the CLOSE DATASET is encountered.
    INPUT: Opens a file for READ and places the cursor at the beginning of the file.
    FOR APPENDING: Opens the file for writing and places the cursor at the end of file. If the file does not exist, it is generated.
    BINARY MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will be character wise. Each time ‘n’’ characters are READ or transferred. The next READ or TRANSFER will start from the next character position and not on the next line.
    IN TEXT MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will start at the beginning of a new line each time. If for READ, the destination is shorter than the source, it gets truncated. If destination is longer, then it is padded with spaces.
    Defaults: If nothing is mentioned, then defaults are FOR INPUT and in BINARY MODE.
    PROCESS FILE:
    Processing a file involves READing the file or Writing on to file TRANSFER.
    TRANSFER Statement
    Syntax:
    TRANSFER <field> TO <file name>.
    <Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
    Each transfer statement writes a statement to the dataset. In binary mode, it writes the length of the field to the dataset. In text mode, it writes one line to the dataset.
    If the file is not already open, TRANSFER tries to OPEN file FOR OUTPUT (IN BINARY MODE) or using the last OPEN DATASET statement for this file.
    IF FILE HANDLING, TRANSFER IS THE ONLY STATEMENT WHICH DOES NOT RETURN SY-SUBRC
    READ Statement
    Syntax:
    READ DATASET <file name> INTO <field>.
    <Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
    Each READ will get one record from the dataset. In binary mode it reads the length of the field and in text mode it reads each line.
    CLOSE FILE:
    The program will close all sequential files, which are open at the end of the program. However, it is a good programming practice to explicitly close all the datasets that were opened.
    Syntax:
    CLOSE DATASET <file name>.
    SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the CLOSE is successful or not.
    DELETE FILE:
    A dataset can be deleted.
    Syntax:
    DELETE DATASET <file name>.
    SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the DELETE is successful or not.
    Pseudo logic for processing the sequential files:
    For reading:
    Open dataset for input in a particular mode.
    Start DO loop.
    Read dataset into a field.
    If READ is not successful.
    Exit the loop.
    Endif.
    Do relevant processing for that record.
    End the do loop.
    Close the dataset.
    For writing:
    Open dataset for output / Appending in a particular mode.
    Populate the field that is to be transferred.
    TRANSFER the filed to a dataset.
    Close the dataset.

  • Open data set / code page

    Hello ,
    I am sending file to print server  and i am accounting problems with  special characters
    In first version of  program  ( please see the code below )
    "OPEN DATASET g_filename  FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT."
    The special characters l from German and French   alphabet were NOT printed properly  , and we had  some nonsense results . Other '"Normal "characters  like A , B... are printed without errors .
    To prevent this error i wrote new line of code for open data set ( below ).
    "OPEN DATASET g_filename FOR OUTPUT IN   LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE '4110'  IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS."
    This was working only when FTP was NOT used  , when FTP was used i had  following short  dump.
    I am working in SAP release 6.0
    Please Advice
    SHORT DUMP Message :
    What happened?
        The conversion of texts in code page '4102' to code page '4110' is not
        supported here.
        The current ABAP program 'SAPLZPRN_AUTO_LBL' had to be interrupted because
         incorrect
        data would have been created by the conversion.
    Error analysis
        An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
        The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CODEPAGE_CONVERTER_INIT', was
         not caught in
        procedure "Z_TRANSFER_FILE" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
         clause.
        Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
        exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
        The reason for the exception is:
        Possibly, one of the codepages '4102' or '4110' - needed for the
        conversion - is unknown to the system. Another option is, that a Unicode
         codepage was specified for a file in LEGACY MODE, which is not allowed.
        Additional parameters for the codepage conversion (as , for example, the
         replacement character) might have invalid values. You can find further
        information under 'Inernal notes'.
        If the problem occurred at opening, reading, or writing of a file, then
        the file name was '/te/mm/labels/0488_20091208_051317_EC008119_01_001.dd'.
         (Further information about this file: " X ")

    Hi,
    Also check the character set supported by the Printer. Printer configuration should also be checked on SAP side to determine character set and code page using SPAD.

    Nishad

  • Open data set problem with binary mode

    Hi everyone,
    I am trying to read into a buffer the content of a binary file (like Excel) and to write that content file using open data set into a folder destination.
    The file destination has a size diferent than from the original one and cannot be open.
    Here is the code.
      DATA:  lv_file_name(100),
             lt_content LIKE sdokcntbin OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
      MOVE '\computerTestA1.xls' TO lv_file_name.
      OPEN DATASET lv_file_name FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
      DO.
        READ DATASET lv_file_name INTO lt_content-line.

    Hi,
    I solve the problem.
    In fact, when I try to write the last line of lt_content, it does write all the line even if this line is not full of data.
    Solution :
      DATA:  lv_file_name(100),
             lt_content LIKE sdokcntbin OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE,
             alen TYPE i,
             pos TYPE i.

      OPEN DATASET lv_file_name FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
      SET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION END OF FILE.
      GET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION pos.
      SET DATASET lv_file_name POSITION 0.
      DO.
        CLEAR lt_content.
        READ DATASET lv_file_name INTO lt_content-line ACTUAL LENGTH alen .
        IF sy-subrc NE 0.
          APPEND lt_content.
          EXIT.
        ENDIF.
        APPEND lt_content.
      ENDDO.
      CLOSE DATASET lv_file_name.
    *  DELETE DATASET lv_file_name.
      CLEAR: lv_file_name.
      MOVE '\mr0221TestB2.xls' TO lv_file_name.
      OPEN DATASET lv_file_name FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.
      IF sy-subrc NE 0.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
      LOOP AT lt_content.
        AT LAST.
          TRANSFER lt_content-line TO lv_file_name LENGTH alen.

    You could view source there to get the code. Here is what I believe is my problem
    I'm trying to automate the site so that when you click on one of the links on the left, without refreshing the page, the paths to the galleries xml file changes, and the spry Detail Regions (1 for the images, 1 for the navigation - left and right arrows). I think the problem is that once the link changes the set and calls my updateSpryComponenets() function, the detail regions need to be refreshed. I'm currently trying to solve this by dynamically rewriting the HTML thru .innterHTML, everytime I call updateSpryComponents().There may also be a problem in the Javascript function updateSpryControllers because if I put the alert after the spry calls, I never get the alert
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Update:
    Ok, the first query on the Recent tab doesnt work for me because it wont show unless its already voted, and since these are supposed to be new blurts, that kind of breaks the whole site:
    "SELECT Blurt.Id_blurt, Blurt.Name, Blurt.Location, Blurt.Blurt,Blurt.`Date`,DATE_FORMAT(Blurt.`Date`, '%l:%i %p on %M %D, %Y') as Date, ratings.rating_id, Avg(ratings.rating_value) as average_r FROM ratings Left Join Blurt On ratings.rating_id = Blurt.Id_blurt Group By Id_blurt ORDER BY Blurt.`Date` DESC";
    So I replaced it with what I originally had.
    "SELECT Blurt.Id_blurt, Blurt.Name, Blurt.Location, Blurt.Blurt,Blurt.`Date`,DATE_FORMAT(Blurt.`Date`, '%l:%i %p on %M %D, %Y') as Date FROM Blurt ORDER BY Blurt.`Date` DESC";
    But this doesn't provide me with the initial average rating:(
