BPS_WB: XML Data Import???

I see that there is a menu option to display the Web Interface configuration in an XML Format.
I want to be able to modify XML and Import back into BPS_WB.
Is there a program or function module that would enable me to do this?
Also, it would be nice to be able to open 2 Web Interfaces in BPS_WB and copy elements between them. Similar to the function of the ABAP Editor Dual Screen functionality. Does anyone know of a workaround that would enable me to do this?
Additionally, is there any functionality to save templates that could be reused? This would help to maintain similar design interfaces when developing many different Web Interfaces.
Thanks!

Hi Alan,
thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately, this functionality is not available. We are incorporating it into a future release (BI Integrated Planning).

XML data import

I want to convert the following XML file into the Table "EMP" & "DEPT". Is this possible in Application Express.
<XML>
<EMP>
 <NAME>ABC</NAME>
 <EMP_CODE>123</EMP_CODE>
 <DESIGNATION>EMG</DESIGNATION>
</EMP>
<DEPT>
 <DNAME>SALE</DNAME>
 <DEPT_CODE>12</DEPT_CODE>
 <MANAGER>BCD</MANAGER>
</DEPT>
</XML>
Thanks ,

Ok,
There's many many (many!) different ways of doing this, for example using SQLLoader, External Tables etc. However, just to show the 'power' of SQL these days -
1) I copied the XML you listed into a file on my local webserver, so that it could be accessed via the URL http://localhost/files/data.xml
2) I ran the following in a SQLPlus session -
1 SELECT
2 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/NAME/text()') as name,
3 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/EMP_CODE/text()') as emp_code,
4 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/DESIGNATION/text()') as designation
5 FROM
6 TABLE ( xmlsequence (
7 extract(httpuritype('http://localhost/files/data.xml').getXML(),
8 '/XML/EMP')
9 )
10* ) t
SQL> /
NAME EMP_CODE DESIGNATION
ABC 123 EMG
1 create table my_emp as (SELECT
2 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/NAME/text()') as name,
3 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/EMP_CODE/text()') as emp_code,
4 extractValue(value(t),'/EMP/DESIGNATION/text()') as designation
5 FROM
6 TABLE ( xmlsequence (
7 extract(httpuritype('http://localhost/files/data.xml').getXML(),
8 '/XML/EMP')
9 )
10* ) t)
SQL> /
Table created.
SQL> select * from my_emp;
NAME EMP_CODE DESIGNATION
ABC 123 EMThis is just one of many ways of achieving what you want, and it's very very flexible.
Hope this helps.

Import XML data to textfields in a PDF file

Can I use LiveCycle Designer 8.2 to auto populate textfields in a PDF-file with data from a XML-file when the user opens the PDF-file? If so, how will I do it? Is there any guide?
It works fine in the Livecycle Designer preview but when I open the PDF-file all textfields are empty. It also works fine if I import data from a OLEDB-connection.
Regards
Mikael Forssell

I'm looking for a solution for the same thing. I have a pdf form with fields bound to an xml file, but Acrobat will only import the data manually (Forms / Manage Form Data / Import Data) and Reader doesn't work at all.
Tech Support says that when in Livecycle, you're working in an xml environment, so the 'Preview PDF' works. Acrobat and Reader aren't xml environments, so they won't display the data.
What we need is a javascript programmer who can figure this out. Possibly using the remerge function. Anyone???

Import xml data in Access when multiple rows use the same fieldname

HI.
First of all sorry for my english :-) I have a LiveCycle Designer ES form with multiple rows that I send via e-mail as XML data.
example:
Row 1
Firstname: John Lastname: Dow
Row 2
Firstname: Steve Lastname: Austin
The exported XML is OK but when I want to import it into my Access database, only one row is imported. I pretty sure that the problem comes from the fact that may exported XML use the same fieldname (what is important if I want to import data in the correct Access field) but I don't know what to do to be able to import all the rows of the same Form.
Any idea?
Thanks a lot
Frederic

Hi Viktor,
In case of order recognition rules you should increase the relevancy in the newer version of the cartridge so appropriate ORR will be triggered. In other xqueries, you can try using new namespace as a model variable for each and every version of the cartridge

Importing XML Data Back into the Form

I have a form that shows several subforms based on the selections the user has made while filling in the form. This is working quite well but when I import the XML data back into the form it doesn't show the subforms that have been used.
Is there an easy way to change this?
Thanks in advance!
Emma

Actually the issue may actually have to do with the fact that the connections aren't bound, but I haven't seen the data.
I have some fairly complex forms that include both subforms and instances, have an XSD embedded and export as XML. When I import the data, everythi
Now, that being said...
Are your subforms "hidden" and you opt to display them upon selection of a radio button for example, or do you SetInstances()? If you're using visible=TRUE or FALSE, that may also cause some issues.
Try this -- on Form:ready try this code:
if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(1);
_subform2.setInstances(0);
_subform3.setInstances(0);
else if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(0);
_subform2.setInstances(1);
_subform3.setInstances(0);
else if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(0);
_subform2.setInstances(0);
_subform3.setInstances(1);
else { // this is fisrt time open -- i sometimes had issues with subforms being visible on first entry
_subform1.setInstances(0);
_subform2.setInstances(0);
_subform3.setInstances(0);
Then on:Click essentially copy most of the code you put in form:ready
if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(1);
_subform2.setInstances(0);
_subform3.setInstances(0);
else if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(0);
_subform2.setInstances(1);
_subform3.setInstances(0);
else if(this.rawValue == "on"){ //this radio button 1
_subform1.setInstances(0);
_subform2.setInstances(0);
_subform3.setInstances(1);
Of course this will go on top of your radio button group.
If you are exporting to XML, it will make your life a whole lot easier, by the way, to import an XSD and bind your nodes, especially as your forms and data start to get more complex.
Finally, you may also know this but -- unless you have Forms Server, any user that wants to export the data or import the data will need to have at least full Acrobat Professional. If you want people to be able to save data in the form but import/export isn't that important, they will need to have full Acrobat.
I hope that helps a bit. Good luck!

Using importdata to import xml data into dynamic PDF form

Hi again,
Me and my colleagues have a problem using the importData service to import some xml data into an empty PDF form (represented as an XFA input variable).
In the server log I get the error that Only XDP data is supported for XFA forms, however I only have the xml data and not the entire xdp available.
Is this really not possible to to (like importing xml data to a form is possible in the Designer when creating forms).
I hope the scenario is understandable
Sincerely

PS: During the various projects I am working on I keep running into problems...however I am totally new to LiveCycle so I consider this very informative learning steps and appreciate all your help :-)

Hi again, I have been experimenting a little with both the renderPDFForm and importData services. However I don't seem to be ble to make them work as I need them to. My scenario is simple, I have one (call it a template xdp/PDF form) and lots of data in xml files (around 1000), that I need to import into the template. Therefore I have set up a "Watched Folder" to take the xml as a document (I guess this is a requirement) and then I need either the renderPDF or importData services to import the xml data into the template. I would like to know how I should setup the services to make this work. When I try to use importdata I setup the following: PDF document: set to be the template i need to import the xml to) Input data: the document variable (an xml file) that is passed to the Watched Folder Data merged PDF: set to an out xfaform When I do this I get an Coercion error in the server log: 2007-11-15 13:27:05,324 ERROR [com.adobe.workflow.AWS] stalling action-instance: 1506 with message: ALC-DSC-000-000: com.adobe.idp.dsc.DSCRuntimeException: Internal error. at com.adobe.idp.dsc.util.CoercionUtil.toDOMDocument(CoercionUtil.java:656) at com.adobe.idp.dsc.util.CoercionUtil.toType(CoercionUtil.java:878) at com.adobe.idp.dsc.util.CoercionUtil.toType(CoercionUtil.java:803) at com.adobe.workflow.datatype.runtime.support.AbstractDataTypeRuntimeHandler.coerceFrom(Abs tractDataTypeRuntimeHandler.java:64) at com.adobe.workflow.datatype.runtime.support.AbstractComplexDataTypeRuntimeHandler.getNode (AbstractComplexDataTypeRuntimeHandler.java:47) at com.adobe.workflow.dom.VariableElement.setBoundValue(VariableElement.java:93) at com.adobe.workflow.pat.service.PATExecutionContextImpl.setProcessDataValue(PATExecutionCo ntextImpl.java:729) at com.adobe.workflow.pat.service.PATExecutionContextImpl.setProcessDataWithExpression(PATEx ecutionContextImpl.java:335) at com.adobe.idp.workflow.dsc.service.SetValueService.execute(SetValueService.java:46) ...

Import XML data

I have a document I created with MS Word, and then converted to a pdf. After it was converted I opened the pdf with LiveCycle, then added radio buttons, text boxes, and an email button. When the forms are filled out they are sent, using the email button. When I receive the form they are in an XML format, how do I open the completed forms with either Livecycle or Acrobat?
Thank you

You will have to either use Livecycle Forms to render the PDF with the data sent from email, or open the PDF in acrobat and import the data into the PDF from the Forms|Manage Forms Data|Import Data
if you need further help email me [email protected]

Problem in importing XML Data In Acrobat - X

Hello All,
I have a LiveCycle form where I am embedding a sample XML into it. (No data connection and no binding). After filling the form when the user clicks the submit button before submitting the XML it removes all the nodes of the sample XML that's embedded to it so that the exported data is encapsulated within the field tag/attribute.
We can again import the submitted XML back into the form to do some manual editing.It works fine in Acrobat - 9 Pro. But when I try to import the submitted XML data back into the form in the Acrobat - X it shows the error : "Could not load data from Text file".It does not give any error while importing the sample XML into the form. I am totally confused. What could be the problem here ?
LiveCycle version - ES 8.2
Thanks.
Bibhu.

Event firing when XML data is imported via Acrobat

When a user in Acrobat imports xml data into a form, what event gets fired? I have a couple of actions that occur on change, but when I import xml into the form (to fill in values, etc), this event doesn't fire. Is it on initialize?

Yea, I dug a little deeper and ended up using the initialize event. What I did was on the initialize event I execute the exit script. So it's the same as the user physically putting the value in. Plus, I dont have to have the same code in two places.
In the initialize event code:
myThingie.execEvent("exit");
Pretty cool little function if you find it useful. Thanks for the reply.

XML data file import

1. I exported data using SQL Developer 3.1 in XML format.
2. I get 'No reader of xml type registered' error when I try to import the same XML data file using SQL Developer 3.1. The 'file open' dialog does have an option to pick XML files and it shows my XML file on the directory.
Do I need to install any extension to be able to import XML data file?
Thanks in advance.
Note: If it allows XML export out-of-the-box, then it should allow import of XML also out-of-the-box.

Unfortunately we don't support XML in our Table Import feature. You can request this in our exchange on SQLDeveloper.oracle.com

Import Xml data into Core Data

Hi im very new here, im trying to find a tutorial to import a xml data into a core data and so i can publish it in a tableview
Can somebody help me??
thanks

Hi,
If you have already have the xml data then you need to parse the XML data (Using NSXMLParser Class), After parsing the data we need to maintain arrays to store this XML content. After getting the arrays with fully parsed data, you have to store this data in our Local Database (Core Data). May be it helps for you.

Can't import XML data into my databse-connected PDF form

Hi All
Excellent forum, and thanks for all the revealing insights so far viewed, however one question.I'm using a PDF form to collect info via email in the format of XML datafiles. I also have an identical PDF which has database connectivity and that works fine. It was suggested on this forum that I could then import the XML data into my Database via the DB-connected PDF, in effect a user form and one with DB connectivity. Now, I've checked the data types and they all match, but when I import XML file, it creates a blank record in the database and none of the information is carried through. Please could someone offer guidance on what I'm doing wrong, I've been trying to figure this out for a week now?
Thanks
Steppe

Maybe it's because I'm replying by email, so I'll try the forums directly;
