Comma and space as seperators in background report ??

Hello Experts,
Hope I am posting in a correct group. I am having an issue when I run a report in the background. When I download the report from spool in SM37 into Excel file, the number appears for example:
value 19,999.00$ would show 19 999,00.
This makes it difficult to manipulate/ analysis data further.. I appreciate if anyone would share solutions on this.
Monica

Hello,
Download and manipulate the same in excel,
If you want you can put $ otherwise you can remove.
Check for excel "Options"
Regards,
Ravi

Removing Commas and Spaces from Field

I have a table called TableD1 in a database with a field called "Range".
The ranges are like 1-1000; 1001-2000; etc. up to like 1000000-200000.
That is how they are supposed to look, they are not numeric fields, just general, containing a low, a dash and a high all in the same field.
I just discovered that quite a few of the entries have included commas and spaces, like 1-1,000 or 100000 - 200000.
I need to write a Query that will remove all of the commas from the data in TableD1's "Range" field, then all of the spaces.
I imagine they are some kind of Update statements but because of the potential to blow up the whole thing, I'm reluctant to experiment.
Does anyone know what code I should use?
Thank you in advance for any help.

Making sure you've taken a backup. Pull the data into temp table and do the testing. once you satisfied with the output then do the update on the main table.
create table #temp
Range varchar(100)
insert into #temp values('1-1,000'),('100000 - 200000')
select replace(replace(Range,',',''),' ','') from #temp
--update #temp set Range=replace(replace(Range,',',''),' ','')
Validate the the output of the select statement.

Trying to concatenate 3 fields wiht commas and spaces

I have some simple code below but my results are not what i would expect. i tried using separated by spaces but then it put a space between my 1st field and the comma
CONCATENATE TRAN_STRUCTURE-NACHN ',' ' ' TRAN_STRUCTURE-VORNA ' '
TRAN_STRUCTURE-MIDNM
INTO RESULT.
I want to see this.
Allen, Joe M
but i am getting this
Allen,JoeM

Hi Immich,
<b>Allen, Joe M</b>
1. For this we have to <b>write two concatenate</b> statements.
2. like this.
REPORT ABC.
DATA : F1(15) TYPE C.
DATA : F2(15) TYPE C.
DATA : F3(15) TYPE C.
DATA : STR(25) TYPE C.
F1 = 'Allen'.
F2 = 'Joe'.
F3 = 'M'.
CONCATENATE F1 ',' INTO STR.
CONCATENATE STR F2 F3 INTO STR
SEPARATED BY SPACE.
WRITE STR.

Multiple selection list and passing that value to oracle reports

Hi
I need to create a multiple selection list and then based on use selection, I need to pass that value to oracle reports. Can any one help with steps on how I can do this. Thanks

Hi
Concatenate the multiple values into a string separated by comma and then pass that string to report as a parameter.
In report query, you have to use the lexical parameter using ' & '

Background and Spaces

I keep changing my background (wallpaper) but every time I move to a different space it resets the background to the default. I've tried everything I can think of but can't fix it.

this would indicate that your dock restarts whenever you change spaces. delete the file homedirectory/library/preferences/com.apple.dock.plist and log out/in. your dock, spaces and exposé will be reset to the defaults. set up spaces again and see if this stops happening.

Second record

phani

Hi dimitri,

For carriage returns i am doing like this replace(column_name,chr(10),'<"br">') (Ignore the double quotes)
For spaces is there any ASCII code like chr(10) for carriage returns..
I mean how to identify Number of spaces in database..

Comma seperated checkboxes - add comma AND a space

Comma seperated checkboxes has worked great for me, except for one thing. I want the values to be seperated by a comma AND a space, like so:
This is what I get now.
location1,location2,location3
What I'd like to get is:
location1, location2, location3
Is what I want possible? If so what's the easiest way to change it?
-Kevin

I'm running into another problem. Your solution for displaying the locations with spaces works great when querying a single record.
However, when I use in a repeat region, all records show the location of the first record. This problem is only present in a repeat region.
For the repeat region, I choose a recordset called feeds to repeat. Repeating elements inside are displayed as .
Now, $locations is in that recordet but $locations_with_spaces is not.
Is there a way to get $locations_with_spaces to repeat properly?
Thanks

Formatting a number element with commas and decimals.

I have a dataset with numbers. I already set the column type to "number".
I want to format the number data with commas and decimals. I found a way to add decimals, but I'm still very confused how to do commas and to combine that with the decimal formatting.
Also, how do I apply that to a repeat region in my spry region?
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

I found this on one of the forum questions.
Excel dont preserve the trailing zeros.
try opening the xcel and type 5.0000 and tab out, it wont preserve the trailing zeros after decimal.
try finding out how to disable the option in excel. if you do that, you will see what you send out from the report.
But you can try to convert the number into a text by trying to append a space at the beginning. See if that would work.
Thanks

Replacing comma with space

Hi,
Note : I am using SAP 4.6
Task      : Replace Comma with space
Problem : Not able to replace comma with space
I have task where I have to write result file to application server, when I am writing string to application server it is separating by comma, for example if you take below statement it is dividing by space that means in first column PO and then ITEM etcu2026.
MOVE 'PO ITEM is not there in table EKPO' TO W_RECORD_OUT-ERROR_MSG.
so to resolve this situation I have used below code for now, I know I can use
REPLACE ... ALL ENTRIES but this statement is not working in SAP 4.6
REPLACE ',' WITH ' ' INTO W_RECORD_OUT-ERROR_MSG.
CONDENSE W_RECORD_OUT-ERROR_MSG.
REPLACE ',' WITH ' ' INTO W_RECORD_OUT-ERROR_MSG.
CONDENSE W_RECORD_OUT-ERROR_MSG.

BACKGROUND Report option

We're running 10gAS. We use web.show_document to run our reports from Forms. We have some reports that need to be ran asynchronously. We set the background=yes parameter in the URL when we run the report, but we get an error message stating that the "background" parameter has been deprecated.
The documentation for 9iAS states that the "BACKGROUND" command-line parameter has been deprecated, but it doesn't mention the new preferred method of running reports asynchronously. Also, the Reports Statement of Direction document for 10g lists "yes" and "no" as valid values for the "background" parameter using rwservlet.
So is "background" deprecated or not? If so, what is the new method of running reports asynchronously?
Thanks.

Hi,
The BACKGROUND command line keyword is NOT deprecated. It is fully supported. Here is what Publishing Reports says about the keyword:
Description BACKGROUND specifies whether a report on the server should be run synchronously (NO) or asynchronously (YES).
Syntax BACKGROUND=YES
Note: The BACKGROUND system parameter is deprecated in Oracle Reports. BACKGROUND is used only on the command line.
So only the system parameter is deprecated. What this is means is: if you open the report in the Report Builder, and in the Object Navigator, click Data model > System parameters, you will see the BACKGROUND parameter.
If you specify the parameter=yes here, it is ignored (deprecated since Oracle Reports9i).
It is still very much supported on the "command line" as written in Publishing Reports.
Similarly, the Reports Statement of Direction document says that the BACKGROUND keyword can be used on the command line with rwservlet, rwcgi and rwclient. It is deprecated only for rwrun.
Here is the reason for deprecating it: in 6i, if you specify BACKGROUND=yes with rwrun, it would not launch a UI, and thus run in the background. However, since 9i, there is no UI associated with rwrun, so there is no use for this parameter.

How to add Comma and Tabs in Calc Script Header

Hi,
I need to add in the begging of the report script the following lines:
PNL
OPENB

12
R,N,Y
5 6 7 2 3 1 I C 8 9 A D V V V V V V V V V V V V
The last line is tab delimited.
The problem is that the TEXT formula ignores commas and tab, so I can't create the last 2 lines.
Please help,
Rami

Row and column heading in cross tab report

Hi Gurus,
Is it possible to leave column headings and row headings in a crosstab report blank?
Pooja

Hi,
You could either suppress the Column Headings by unchecking
Tools-->Options-->Column Heading or Making the background color and the font color of the cell to be same ( gray ), thereby making it invisible, though it is actually there.

Special Characters and spaces in Tablenames and Column Names are allowed ?

Hi
I have created two tables in Oracle10g
as follows
SQL> create table test(columna number,columnb varchar2(20),primary key(columna));
Table created.
SQL> insert into test values(1,'test');
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
COMMIT är utfört.
SQL> create table "test quote"("#" number,abc number,primary key("#"));
Table created.
SQL> insert into "test quote" values(1,2);
1 row created.
SQL> commit;
COMMIT är utfört.
SQL> select * from "test quote";
# ABC
1 2
SQL> select * from test;
COLUMNA COLUMNB
1 test
Now I want to cache the tables and their data into TimesTen
The cache group for table test which is not having any spaces and special characters in table name and column names is created perfectly.
But when I create the cache group for table "test quote" which is having special characters and spaces it gives error :
Command>create readonly cache group w2 from testuser.test(columna number,columnb varchar2(20),primary key(columna));
Command>select * from test;
<1,test>
1 row found.
Command>create readonly cache group w3 from testuser."test quote"("#" number,abc number,primary key("#"));
5140: Could not find TESTUSER.TEST QUOTE in Oracle. May not have privileges.
Command Failed.
Now there is contradiction that why cache group for table test is created successfully and why it is not being created for table "test quote".
What I think is if special characters and spaces in column names and table names are possible in Oracle then it sould be possible in TimesTen.
Any possible solution.
Looking forward for your reply.
Please help I am stuck badly.
/Ahmad

Hi
Problem Solved ....... Remeber only Capital letters work with special characters ......

Hello Sriram
Do you need to configure alerting or do you have a requirement for functionality outside that already provided by SAP?
See the link below for details on how to configure alerting (also there are many SDN blogs and threads about this, have you searched for these before opening this thread?).
