Attaching generated excel file in cfmail

Hi,
I've attached the code in which I've generated an excel file
from my data, which the user can then open/save on their PC. I now
want to attach this excel file to an email (using cfmail) and send
it (the task will then become scheduled).
How do I save rather than output the excel file?
Katie

Hi,
Have a look at the following tags:
1)
<cfsavecontent> to generate a variable from your
tab-delimited content
<cffile action = "write"> to generate a temp file with
your content
<cfmail> and attach that file to your email
or
2)
<cfsavecontent>
<cfmail>,<cfmailpart> to attach the variable
directly to the email without creating a temp file first (have not
tried that myself)
cheers,
fober

Not able to generate excel file locally

Hi guys,
My web server & database server are on 2 different systems. I am trying to generate excel file locally but the excel is getting generated on server. Output path is
c:\\" + output + ".xls
There is no problem anywhere else in code. If a user on any system is trying to generate excel file it's getting
generated on server in C drive. But the excel should generate on local system of that particular user.
Is this code fine?
\\c:\\" + output + ".xls

It's on intranet, so security is not an issue.Yes, it is. Because of the inherent security problems, servers just plain can't do that. Do you think there's an "I'm running in an intranet" flag in your server? If there was, then bad guys would just set that flag on and write malware to any client that connected. Intranets aren't an excuse for sloppy security.
Do I need to download the file from server?That's what I said.

How to generate excel file in oracle forms 10g on client machine

dear Sir,
I am using just file server(installed 10g dev suite) not a oracle application server,
I am running my application from another machine ,it running fine i want to generate excel report on client machine
presently i m using OLE2 for fetching the data in excel , it is working fine but it generates the excel file on file server machine and i want get the output excel on the client machine. aftre OLE2 i m using CLIENT_OLE2 with webutil (instead of OLE2) its get compile successfully but during runtime it give error "oracle.forms.webutil.ole.OleFunctions bean not "found.CLIENT_OLE2.create_obj will not work"
*so please tell me without oracle application server is this possible or not .*

your webutil on server side is not configured
you need to re install the webutil jacob.dll files etc. then it will work fine..
you can also generate excel file using reports to change the destination format in SPREADSHEET

How to generate excel file as output using OWB

Hi,
I have a requirement to generate an excel file as output using OWB.
I am trying for a direct approach to create excel files.
Though I know that excel can be created from a .csv file, I am looking for a direct approach to generate excel file without involving any .csv to excel conversion externally.
Regards,
Sri

so, we are trying to do it by the help of oracle heterogeneous services. In my opinion it is possible (it depends on feature of ODCB Excel driver)
For more details look at thread (it is about MS SQL Server but maybe it helps)
Oracle to SQL SERVER

I wanted to generate the excel file using the below pasted PL/SQL which I have downloaded from one of the tech sites. And as I have very limited knowledge about PL/SQL I really dont know how & where I should compile this below mentioned code and get the desired O/P?
Please reply me ASAP if anybody can help me with this?
Please see the below code and please help me to interpret the same.

Next thing is how to use it:

Don't forget: these procedures are all part of the gen_xl_xml package.
To call them from outside the package, you have to prefix each procedure name with the package name, like this:
declare
k_file constant varchar2(30) := 'YourFile.xls'
begin
gen_xl_xml.create_file(k_file);
-- Call other procedures
gen_xl_xml.close_file;
end;

Need to generate excel file with different sheets

Hi,
I need to generate the excel file with diffrent sheets . Currently I am generating the data in three diffrent excel files
and my requirement is to generate this in a single excel file with diffrent sheets.
Please help on this
Thanks & Regards,
Krishna Vyavahare

I'm not able to realize how Oracle will help in the problem. You may probably want to look at some [.net forums|http://www.google.com.sg/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS280&q=.net+forums&btnG=Google+Search&meta=lr%3D] about this.

Attach an Excel File with Email for External Email Address

Hi,
I want to send an excel file to an external email address as an attachement.
I am using the function module SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 for sending the email.
But as far as I know we can only create and send the excel file in this FM. e.g. we can put the text manually and name the file as excel and add it as packing list and send the document.
Now, my client has a template in excel/word which he wants to send as an attachment always when he sends the mail. I have below Queries:
1. Where and how do i store the template which is in Excel or word? He doesnt want to upload the template each time he runs the report. Can I save the file on AL11? how do i insert the file in this?
2. I have tried standard texts, but his template contains a logo. So, I am not sure if that would work. Can I send the template in Binary and just aapend the file extension? xls or doc? would that do?

Hi,
See if you can matintain the required templates in document management and use them in your reports.
Try the link below for reference.

Generate Excel file via code

Hi,
I know the user can export an Excel file once the report viewer is loaded, but I was wondering if it's possible to generate an Excel file via code (no viewer loaded)?
thanks,

Yup.
You can find export samples in our [Crystal Reports .NET SDK samples|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/sdklibrary?rid=/library/uuid/d0bf8496-2a81-2b10-95ac-b1f48d5b63f5]

Saving Generated Excel Files

Hi guys,
I have a CF page that is generating an excel file from an
html table. ex:
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="inline;
filename=excel1.xls">
<cfcontent type="application/vnd.msexcel">
<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="2">
<tr>
<th>Column 1</th>
<th>Column 2</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Data1</td>
<td>Data 2</td>
</tr>
</table>
When the page is run, it presents the user with an excel file
and asks if they would like to open it or save it. I was wondering
if it's possible to save the excel file automatically. So, for
instance, I could have scheduled tasks running that generated and
saved an excel report without user input. Any idea on how this can
be done? I assume it involves cffile in some way but I haven't been
able to figure it out. Thanks!

A similar question was recently answered.

RemoteMartException exception while saving generated Excel file

I am getting RemoteMartException exception while saving generated Excel report in our production system. We are using Brio query and classes in sqrib package to create an excel file.
We did NOT make any changes in the application code recently, suddenly this problem started coming, We also observed that only limited number of users are affected. For other no issues.
Is there any change in directory properties such as “owner” would result in this behavior? How to find out the location of user directories where the reports are getting stored?
