Can I convert a PowerPivot database to Excel

I used PowerPivot's import features to filter and reduce the number of fields in a very large database.  The database is now small enough to use in Excel without the aid of PowerPivot (I feel more comfortable using Excel and can take advantage of Excel
features such as remove duplicates and vlookup).  Is there any way that I can covert the PowerPivot data to a regular Excel file?  For example save as Excel or export to text and then import to Excel?

Kerry,
My initial recommendation would be to try to use Powerpivot as particularly the two requirements can be realised quite well in there vlookup (relationships in PowerPivot and RELATED function) for duplicates use a distinct statement (DISTINCT
clause to SELECT in SQL statement:
SELECT DISTINCT
…FIELDS…
FROM
… etc.)
in the data source definition or this approach: http://www.powerpivotpro.com/2012/11/finding-duplicate-rows-in-powerpivotacross-tables-or-within-tables/ 
If you really don't want to use PP: select the respective table in the Powerpivot dialog and click on the content top right hand corner and copy and paste into the workbook.
Hope that helps!

  • Can you share a PowerPivot Model within Excel 2013?

    Hi,
    Can you share a PowerPivot Model within Excel 2013?
    Is it essential that you have either SharePoint or Power BI subscription to share a PowerPivot Model created within Excel 2013?
    Kind Regards,
    Kieran.

    I am afraid you need SharePoint at some point for this scenario
    what SharePoint basically does it extracts the datamodel, hosts it on an interanl SSAS Tabular Server and redirects users connections that are initially connecting to the workbook to the SSAS Tabular Server
    so the model needs to be hosted somewhere - which is SharePoint with SSAS integration in this scenario
    SharePoint online does all this automatically for you
    an other option would be to host the model directly on a SSAS Tabular Server and let users connect to the SSAS instance instead of the Power Pivot model - Note that you can simply import your Power Pivot Model to SSAS

  • Can i convert logical standby database to physical standby database

    Dear All,
    Can i convert a logical standby database to physical standby database?
    If yes, what are the steps to follow?
    Thanks
    Mahipal

    I never needed or tested something like this, but below maybe usefull -
    Transient Logical Standby
    Users can convert a physical standby to a transient logical standby database to effect a rolling database upgrade, and then revert the standby to its original state as a physical standby database once the upgrade is complete - using the KEEP IDENTITY clause. This benefits physical standby users who wish to execute a rolling database upgrade without investing in redundant storage otherwise needed to create a logical standby database.

    But opposite is documented - http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14239/create_ls.htm#BEIGJCAC

  • How can I convert array of database variant to cluster?

    When I use the Database Connectivity Toolkit to read a recordset from a database, I just use a SQL query.  This returns an array of variant data.  I have always just indexed this array in a sequence structure that has the database variant conversion function in it and build a cluster from that.  There has got to be an easier way, but I can't find it.  Of course, my recordset has various data types in it.  Any ideas?

    Here is the  seed of an idea I had been nocking around.
    Compose an SQL query based on the cluster elements. I chose to use the caption of the cluster elements so that the unbundles have the names I want but the caption can be set to match the collumn names from the table. (If you really want to get fancy, update the captions of the cluster of the typedef before the application opens)
    Do the query and get your array of variants. They should be returned in the order of the query (which we composed based on the cluster order)
    Pass the array of variants into another foor loop that uses the Class ID to do the variant conversion.
    Come to think of it....
    Just wiring the variants to the geneic value refs of the cluster may be good enough.?????
    In theory if "cluster" is a type def, new fileds can be added to tthe typedef and it should get updated from the DB.
    Maybe turn this into a template?
    Your thoughts?

  • How to convert Oracle charset database

    I have a Oracle database which set charset "WE8ISO8859P1". how can I convert to "SJIS" charset that dont need create new database

    You can't.
    You can successfully convert an Oracle database's charset without database recreation if and only if 1) the original charset is a strict subset of the final charset (the letters in the set) and 2) the codepoints (the numbers that encode the letters) in the original charset don't change in the final charset and 3) all of the data in the database actually is encoded in the original charset (or at least is correctly encoded in the final charset). This is because this type of conversion is accomplished by simply slapping a new charest lable on the database as a whole; none of the binary values in the data get looked at, much less touched. If you "convert" a database and all three are not true, then some or all of your string data becomes complete and utter garbage.
    For WE8ISO8859P1 to SJIS, both 1) and 2) are false.
    3) becomes an issue because of what Oracle calls an optimization and I call a stupidity; when a database recieves string data from a client that asserts it's using the same charset, nothing checks that the data passed is actually in that charset; thus is it's trivially easy to get 8-bit data in a 7-bit US7ASCII database; it will read and write correctly until the day you try to convert to a superset of US7ASCII, such as UTF8. Then WHAM! Data corruption.
    Oracle customers with support contracts can get a lot of documentation about character set conversions from the Metalink support site. Oracle also strongly recommends that customers file a support request for conversions (although someone who reads all the docs and understands character encoding and the NLS settings can muddle through on their own). Oracle also has lot of free documentation about globalization and character sets on the OTN site, which just requires a registration, but I'm not sure the nitty gritty details are there.
    For non-subset conversions, the way to do it is to export the data, create a new database and import the data. Conversion to the new encoding will occur on import.
    There is a utility, CSSCAN, that can be used to prepare for a conversion. It will scan the database for strings that will have difficulty converting.
    Besides the possible issue of data that is outside of the original charset, it will also check for data that will be truncated on conversion. By default, the size specification of a VARCHAR2 in Oracle is the number of bytes; when a character is converted, it may expand the number of bytes that it requires, for example when switching form a 7 or 8 bit encoding to a 16 bit encoding. If enough characters in a value are expanded, the data exceeds the size of the column and is truncated or dropped (I forget). Recent Oracle versions lets you change from having the DB count size in bytes to counting size in characters; I don't yet know if this plays nice with imports with character set conversion (I'll know in a few months).

  • Can you convert a variable text (spanning multiple rows) but fixed

    Hi all,
    I have a PDF table with 5 columns, couple of title rows at the top and four lines per row table into Excel? I'd want each excel row to have four lines as four combined rows. Think of each column as a date, an ID, a mailing address, an amount and a comment. It looks like a typical form, but on multiple pages (about 27) and I want all the info as an Excel table. Can I convert this PDF doc into Excel?
    Any pointers and/or solutions welcome... Please help.
    Thanks much in advance,
    Nash

    No, there isn't. Pages can't break within a row, only between rows.
    If you not are going to print the document you can change the paper size to something larger/longer. File > Page Setup > Paper Size > Manage custom sizes

    asktom.oracle.com has an excellent article on writing a PL/SQL procedure that dumps data to an Excel spreadsheet-- search for 'Excel' and it'll come up.
    You can also use your favorite connection protocol (ODBC, OLE DB, etc) to connect from Excel to Oracle and pull the data out that way.
