Changing the default download settings in the excel.

Hi All,
Is there any methodology to change the default settings of the download of a report to a excel file. Because when I try to download reports having pivoted chart view it tends to hide the titles. I have added the padding but no luck. It is taking the default settings.
Is there any xml file where we change those properties?
Thanks:

George,
Thanks a lot, that is very helpful.
To solve my problem I am going to use that method (Create a new file @ startup, see if it exists, and if it does not exist then it is the first time running) and tweak it a little to solve my exact problem.
I need to be sure that the application is being run after installation (from the installer), because the user MAY select "do not run after install", in which case the first time they try to run the program by opening an associated file, the program will exit, which is not a good first impression to leave on the user.
So I will check if the file exists created and if then i will check if arguments (file name) is being passed.
1. If a file name argument is passed I'll create the file and continue running to program. - First time run, but not from installer.
2. If no argument is present and it is the first time, I will shut down immediately with no message. - First time running/run from installer.
3. If no argument is present and file exists, exit with error (file needed). - Not the first time run, but no argument passed.
4. If argument exists and and file exists, run program. - Normal execution.

  • Change the default margin settings for the MS word!

    Hi All,
    BI Publisher version:latest 10.1.3.4
    DB:10.2.0.4
    Oracle Apps:12.0.6
    OS:AIX
    We are facing an issue of which description is as below:
    RTF output is being uploaded through "XML Publisher" Responsibility.
    3.1.9 Header and Footer Margin from Edge Not Preserved in RTF Output
    This issue applies to Versions 10.1.3.3, 10.1.3.3.1, 10.1.3.3.2, 10.1.3.3.3, 10.1.3.4, and 10.1.3.4.1.
    Microsoft Word provides a Page Setup option for specifying the margin for the headers and footers from the edge of the page. This option is available by choosing the File menu, then Page Setup, then the Margins tab, and the From edge box. This margin setting is not retained when the output format is RTF. The output is created with the default margin settings instead. The margin settings do work correctly for other output formats such as HTML, PDF, and Excel.
    So, the "default setting" mentioned here is around 1/2 inch for MS Word which is getting added in the output, even if the margin in template is zero.
    Expected output:
    So what we need to do is -
    1. Check the MS word installation on the application server
    2. Change this default margin setting as top and bottom 0 on the server in the MS word page setup. (I can give you steps to do this in word if required)
    We have tried setting this margin to 0 on client side and generating the output and it makes no difference, so it must be coming from the server.
    We need to know how could we modify the settings and need to know te source and Check the MS word installation on the application server?
    Could anyone please share such an issue faced before!
    Thanks for your time!
    Regards,

    Hi All,
    Moreover,
    Our understanding about the RTF output is this -
    When we generate an RTF report output from Oracle EBS, the word document that is generated is with the settings of MS word that is installed on application server.
    This understanding could be wrong as we have never faced such situation before! We have come to this conclusion because the default settings that we do on client machine do not work.
    And as per the documentation of BI publisher the RTF should always be generated with the default settings of MS word.
    So what you could help us with is this -
    1. See if the MS word application is installed on application server ( if you think this is not application server, but any other server then please check there!)
    2. Change the default margin settings for the MS word.
    Regards,

  • Excel 2010 not using the default print settings

    Currently got an issue with Excel 2010 not using the default print settings for a couple of users on our network,
    basically when pressing cntrl P or selecting the print option from the file menu the printer settings are different to the print settings selected in the devices and printers menu, we have checked the print drivers etc but this has still not resolved the
    issue, all other office programs are fine and also other users are reporting this issue more and more with different printers,
    tried restarting print spooler service and re-installing office but this has come to no avail,
    any ideas would be much appreciated!

    Hi,
    This issue occurs because the Page Setup settings that you specify in your file override the settings that you specify in the printer driver properties.
    To work around this issue, do not specify the paper size, page orientation, or page margins in the printer driver properties. Instead, specify these settings in your workbook.
    To specify these settings, follow these steps:
    1.Start Excel, and then open the workbook you want to change.
    2.In Microsoft Office Excel 2010, click the sheet that you want to print, and then click the Page Layout tab. In the Page Setup group, click Page Setup to open the Page Setup dialog box.
    3.Click the Page tab.
    4.Under Paper size, click the paper size that you want.
    5. Click Options button and in Printing Shortcuts tab, in the Paper source area, perform one of the following steps:  ◦If the printer can automatically select the correct paper tray to use, click Default tray in the First page list, and then click Default
    tray in the Other pages list.
    Default tray is the default setting in both of these lists.
    ◦If the printer cannot automatically select the correct paper tray to use, you may have to select the paper tray that contains the paper size that you selected in step 4.
    To do this, click the appropriate paper tray in the First page list and in the Other pages list.
    6.If you want to change the page orientation or its page margins, click the Finishing tab.
    7.Select the options that you want.
    8.Click OK.
    9.Repeat steps 2 to 8 for each sheet of your workbook for which you want to specify settings.

  • Will migration assistant change the default display settings on my new Mac?

    I just set up a new iMac and used Migration Assistant to load from my Time Machine. But now the display looks muted and not as bright. Would Migration Assistant change the default display settings on my new Mac?

    Migration Assistant may not be the cause. But you should reset the NVRAM and see it that fixes the issue.
    Shut down your Mac.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
    Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the third time.
    Release the keys.

  • What is the default length of time that a deleted email will be retained in the email trash before automatically deleting it? How do I change that default? I follow the instructions in the manual, but when there is no "advanced" to click on.

    What is the length of time that an email will be held in the email trash after being deleted? Also how do I change this default? I follow the instructions in the manual until it says to click on something called "advanced." There is nothing like that on the screen so I am stuck.

    Go to Settings > Mail
    Then tap on your account.
    SCROLL DOWN TO ADVANCED and tap advanced.
    Then look at Deleted Messages > Remove
    Tap on Remove and select the amount of time you want.

  • How do I change the default search engine in the address bar?

    I am trying to change the default search engine in the address bar to Scroogle SSL, I have tried editing about.config but it either goes to Google or on rare occasions it has opened to Scroogle SSL and the address bar shows https://ssl.scroogle.org/(+whatever was entered), while the main window shows a proxy error .
    I have an idea that something needs to be added at the end of the URL in about.config to actually make it search.
    Can anybody tell me what the specific settings would be to get this working?
    I have Scroogle SSL in the search engine list but I want to remove the search box to save space.
    Also I cannot get the search to open in a new tab even though browser.search.openintab is set to True.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, having tried both ways myself what you say is true but that is not the source of my confusion.
    (In fact I discovered that when I set the same thing up in Opera10.53 everything up to the ? appears on one line in the setup and the Gw=%s on another.)
    What I cannot understand is why, if I am using Scroogle SSl search it is opening the OpenDNS guide.
    If I use my Scroogle SSL home page it opens a minimal Google search page, the same thing happens if I use the search box. I expected this would be the same as well or am I missing something?
    OpenDNS is preferable to Google but not what I was looking for.
    Since I started writing this I have just discovered that changing the keyword.URL does not affect this.
    Earlier I recovered my system from an image which undid the changes that I had made to about.config, I have run searches both before and after I edited it again. Both times I finished up on OpenDNS?

    How can I set the default print settings of my document as color.  I want the default print setting to be color when someone opens a document.  similar to duplex print preset is there a color print preset?

    Hi,
    Try saving your settings as a Preset by clicking the Preset drop down and then select Save Current Settings as a Preset.
    Next try changing the settings by selecting the saved preset.
    That allow saving the settings for a specific printer, I assume it may also allow selecting these settings for another printer.

  • Making LR3 The Default Downloader On A Mac

    Now Bridge opens when I download.  How do I make LR3 the default downloader?

    Open Image Capture (Mac Applications folder) and select Lightroom from the list of available applications or choose Other to add a new application. You can select the application on a device by device basis. This will give priority to Lightroom, which should auto launch when the specified device is connected. You also change the Lightroom preferences (Show import dialog when a memory card is detected in General tab) to auto open the Lightroom import dialog. Bridge also has a preference (General tab) that can be used to disable its ability to auto launch.

  • How to change the default save encoding of the dvm files when create dvm???

    When I creating a DVM(domain-value mapping) in Chinese on the ESB control and confirm it, then restarted the SOA service, the DVM that I created in Chinese disappeared from ESB control. All the maps(both English and Chinese ) are in DVM Repository.
    After I updated the encoding from ‘UTF-8’ to ‘GB2312’ in the three files below, and restarted the SOA service, the DVM in Chinese appeared on ESB control.
    But when I adding the second row in Chinese and save it, then restart the SOA service, the DVM in Chinese disappeared from ESB Control once again. Because the encoding in the three files below is updated from ‘GB2312’ to ‘UTF-8’ .
    Files:
    C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\dvm.def.xml
    C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\oraesb\artifacts\store\metadata\files\dvm\Chinese.xml.def.xml

    I have the same problem.  When I updated to Mavericks now the bookmarks bar font is huge.  I liked it the way it was before.  I liked the smaller font.  Also wish I could change the color of the sidebar and font/folders too.
    I tried to see in preferences if there was anyway to change it, but I don't see anything there.
