Comma separated Excel file FCC?

Hi Experts,
I have an excel file like below (I have just mentioned the row n column to give an idea):
first name(A1), last name(B1), street (C1) city(D1), state(E1)
John (A2), Smith(B2), MacArthur(C2), Dallas(D2), TX(E2)
Mike(A3), Dale(B3), Main St(C3), Austin(D3), TX(E3)
Kevin(A4), Costner(B4), 2nd Steert(C4), Houston(D4), TX(E4)
Can I tranform this into xml out-of-the box using XI 3.0 file adapter file content conversion? If I have to use the module, is there as stadard module available or should have to build from scratch?
If I open the excel file in notepad, it opens as comma separated text file
first name,last name, street,city,state
John,Smith,MacArthur,Dallas,TX
Mike,Dale,Main St,Austin,TX
Kevin,Costner,2nd Steert,Houston,TX
How do I do FCC for the above CSV file? I mean I have one header with the field names and remaings rows as record sets.

PI Standard Adapter will not support Execl files.,there is no standard module available, you have to develop adapter module to process EXCEL files.

If you have comma separated values in text file then you can use file content conversion to convert CSV file in to XML,standard adapter will support this.

search in sdn , many blogs available on the same ,converting CSV to XML it is very easy.

[Forum FAQ] How do I export each group data to separated Excel files in Reporting Services?

Introduction
There is a scenario that a report grouped by one field for some reasons, then the users want to export each group data to separated Excel files. By default, we can directly export only one file at a time on report server. Is there a way that we can split
the report based on the group, then export each report to Excel file?
Solution
To achieve this requirement, we can add a parameter with the group values to filter the report based on the group, then create a data-driven subscription for the report which get File name and parameter from the group values.
In the report, create a parameter named Name which use the Name field as Available Values (supposing the group grouped on Name field).
Add a filter as below in the corresponding tablix:
Expression: [Name]
Operator: =
Value: [@Name]
Deploy the report. Then create a data-driven subscription with Windows File Share delivery extension for the report in Report Manager.
During the data-driven subscription, in the step 3, specify a query that returns the Name field with the values as the group in the report.
In the step 4 (Specify delivery extension settings for Report Server FileShare), below “File name”option, select “Get the value from the database”, then select Name field.
Below ‘Render Format’ option, select Excel as the static value.
In the step 5, we can configure parameter Name “Get the value from the database”, then select Name field.
Then specify the subscription execute only one time.

Thanks,
Is this a supported scenario, or does it use unsupported features?
For example, can we call exec [ReportServer].dbo.AddEvent @EventType='TimedSubscription', @EventData='b64ce7ec-d598-45cd-bbc2-ea202e0c129d'
in a supported way?
Thanks! Josh

Comma Separated Values files ?!!

Is there special classes for dealing with CSV (comma separated values) to use a text file just like a database ??
thanks in advance

sorry, it just sounds like a strange thing to do. Normally, you would not use CSV for persistent data storage with a High Level Language. In your design, if you wanted to refer to a particular record, you get into all sorts of problems. You could keep a note of where each record is, like what line number its on, but then you would need some way of modifying this note when you add records. Also, you would have to be sure that no-one is accessing the file outside of the program as then things will not be where the program expects them to be. You could refer to each record using some identifier, but then if you are going to start using all of this, then you may as well go the database route. If you are new to java, it will probably help you learn. I just don't envisage you ever having to use the type of design you are talking of in practice. The closest thing that you ever might use it for is if you had a plain text configuration or parameter file for a program.

this can be done uisng excel , open the text fiel with excel and save it as .csv file. and try ...
or else i will tell another solution for it...

CSV (Comma Separated Value) files in Appleworks

Hello I have to create a subscribers list to upload to another program. They tell you to create a CSV file. Can I do this with Appleworks? If so, how do I go about doing this.

Sounds like you're on the right track. First create the spreadsheet. When all the data has been entered, make a block selection of the data. Next, open an AW wordprocessing document window, switch back to the SS window, click on your selection, and drag the selection to the WP window.
Now your SS information is in a WP document with tabs between the cell entries on each row, and the rows are separated by carriage returns -- don't be too concerned about how it looks. Press command+F to open the "Find/Change" dialog, enter "\t" (without the quotes) in the "Find:" box, and "," (with, or without the quotes, depending on what the recipient needs) in the "Change:" box, and finally, click on the "Change All" button in the Find/Change dialog box.
Using the "File >Save As..." menu item, save the document as "Text" (from the dialog's "Save As:" pop-up) and include the appropriate file name extension as described earlier.

Posting an Excel file to a FTP Server

Hi,
I have a requirement, where I have to convert the contents of an internal table to an excel file, along with header details and put that file to a FTP Server.
I am able to create an excel file in FTP server, using function module FTP_R3_TO_SERVER and transfer contents of my internal table. But the contents of my internal table are getting copied to one column. How do I get the contents in different columns?
Also how do I get the header details?

Hi,
you can simply create a comma-separated text file on your SAP application server, line by line, each column separated by a semicolon (;). That file can later easily be opened with Excel. Afther the file has been created you can send it to the remote FTP server.

Create an excel file from java

I am using Jakarta's POI to create an excel file from MySql. The POI works well when a samll amount of data was written from MySql (created .xls file less than 3500KB). The problem is when a large amount of data need to be written to an excel file, java.lang.OutOfMemoryError Exception in thread "main" appears. In my project, I really need to have a large amount of data to be wriiten ton excel file. Do somebody has good solution for it?

What about using some text files like csv
(comma-separated value) file? It is plain text but
Excel (and other spreadsheet programs) will be able to
read it.
But then there will be no formatting and bells and
whistles. It was just an idea.Excel will also read HTML <TABLE>'s, with full formatting. There are some extra tags for numeric formatting, also. Just create an HTML table, and save to a file with .xls extension, e.g.:
<TABLE>
<TR bgcolor="#00FF7F">
<TH>Agency ID</TH>
<TH>POS ID</TH>
<TH>Machine Serial</TH>
<TH>Disk Serial</TH>
<TH>MAC ID</TH>
<TH>System Manufacturer</TH>

Exporting Metadata (caption information) from JPEGS to a comma separated value (CSV) file

Here is my dilemma. I am an archivist at an arts organization and we are in the process of digitizing many of our materials to post them on the web and make them available to internet users. One of the principle components of our collection is a large trove of photographs. We have been in the process of digitizing these images and embedding metadata (in the Caption/Description, Author/Photographer and Copyright fields) via PhotoShops File Info command.
Now I am at a crossroads. We need to extract this metadata and transfer it into a comma separated value form, like an Excel spreadsheet or a FileMakerPro database. I have been told that it is not possible to do this through PhotoShop, that I must run a script through Acrobat or Bridge. I have no clue how to do this. I have been directed to a couple of links.
First I was directed to this (now dead) link: http://www.barredrocksoftware.com/products.html
The BSExportMetadata script allegedly exports the metadata from files selected in Adobe's Bridge into a comma separated value (CSV) file suitable for import into Excel, Access and most database programs. It installs as a Bridge menu item making it simple to use. The the Export Metadata script provides you with an easy to use wizard allowing you to select associated information about a set of images that you can then export. This script requires Creative Suite 2 (CS2). This script sounds like it does exactly what I want to do, but unfortunately, it no longer exists.
Then I found this:
Arnold Dubin, "Script to Export and Import Keywords and Metadata" #13, 8 Aug 2005 7:23 am
I tried this procedure, but nothing seemed to happen. I also tried to copy the script into the JAVASCRIPT action option in Acrobat, but I received a message that the script had an error. It also seems to me that this script does not set up a dumping point, that is, a file into which this information will be exported to.
I am a novice, not a code writer or a programmer/developer. I need a step-by-step explanation of how to implement this filtering of information. We have about 2000 jpeg and tiff files, so I would rather not go through each file and copy and paste this information elsewhere. I need to find out how to create a batch process that will do this procedure for me. Can anyone help?

Hello -
Is anyone aware of a tool that will do the above that is available for mac? Everything I've found so far seems to be PC only.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

How to save an excel file as CSV with semi-colon as data separator?

We are creating a flat data file to load the flat file data to our BW system with Excel. When we save the file, there are three kinds of CSV types for selecting from the "Save as type" list box:
CSV (Comma delimited)
CSV (Macintosh)
CSV (MS-DOS)
There is no CSV (semi colon delimited) type. If we pick CSV (Comma delimted) as the type, then when clicking the "Preview ..." picture icon under the "DataSource/Trans. Structure" tab of the InfoSource for this flat file (with the CSV radio button checked the Data separator default is ";"), the File Upload Preview window shows the data is messed up that some columns of the excel flat file are combined into one column.
Since the save type we picked is "CSV (Comma delimited)", then we try to change the default Data separator from ";" to "," in the preview selection screen, but still not helpful!
How to resolve the above problem?
Thanks

Hi Kevin,
This "," is defined in your windows setting. If you want to have ";" as separator then go to control Panel, select Regional Options, go to Numbers Tab and define the List separator as ";". After that when you will save your excel file as CSV(MS-DOS) it will have ";" as separator. This will make sure that the amounts are not broken in to two different fields while loading.
Else if you keep "," as separator then you can also go into the Excel and define all number fields as Number without thousand separator.
Let me know if you have any doubts in this.
Regards,
Rohit

When I import a text file(comma separated )into a numbers spread sheet all the data goes into one column. Why does the text not go into separate columns based on the commas.

When I import a text file(comma separated) into a numbers spreadsheet all the data goes into one column instead of individual columns based on the comma separators. Excel allows you to do this during the import.. Is there a way to accomplish this in numbers without opening it in Excel and the importing into Numbers.

Your user info says iPad. This is the OS X Numbers forum. Assuming you are using OS X… Be sure the file is named with a .csv suffix.
(I don't have an iPad, so I don't know the iOS answer.)

Open Hub File ignores comma separator

Hi friends,
I've got a problem while extracting a csv file with an open hub service.
In the system my user (tab default) has US decimal format, and I can see the values in the infocubes correctly.
But when I extract this values thru open hub service to a csv file, the comma separator and decimal point disappear.
I thought it was a problem of the configuration of my pc, so I modified the regional options selecting US format.
But, even doing this, when I open the csv file with excel the comma separator and decimal point doesn't exist.
I know there exist a transaction called something like "RSRVT" or similar that can definy the thousand separator, but I don't remember the exact name.
The field that I'm interested in the open hub file is defined as NUMC, length 17 and 3 decimal. I've tried to define with DEC format or CURR with similar result (totally failed).
Can anybody help me!... this is very urgent.
Thanks a lot.
Francis.

Comma Separated File

Hello Experts,
I am working on Interface, where i have the data in Internal Table. Now I am required to transfer the internal table data into Comma separated file with extension '.csv' .
I used the FM 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT' and provided the de-limiter as ',' . When i downloaded the file in '.xls' format , all fields in row appeared in single cell of excel sheet.
example : in 1 cell A1 the data was : abc,123,thr,456
But the needed thing is 'abc' should appear in A1 cell , '123' should appear in B1 column etc...
Please help me to attain the solution.
Thanks in advance.

You can concatenate all your field into a string, separated by ',' and then save the file.
otherwise, you can save file into a csv where field are separated by tabulator, using the following:

    tables
      data_tab                = i_data
      fieldnames              = i_header

How to create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Comm Ch

How do I create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Communication Channel? I have my mapping done and I am outputting the file as a comma delimited csv file. However, the target can only process an Excel file (.xls). How can I generate an Excel in XI?
I saw this blog, but I don't know how to create a XSLT transformation.
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/10/xi-generating-excel-files-without-the-java-nor-the-conversion-agent-not-possible
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Here are the steps I took to create an XSLT transformation in XI 3.0:
1. I created my source and target XSDs using XMLSpy.
2. I created the XSLT mapping from source to target in XMLSpy (referencing the souce XSD schema).
3. I created another XSLT mapping to format the target into Excel XML.
4. Import the source and target XSDs in the IR's External Definitions
5. Zip each XSLT mapping (.xls) and import it into the IR's Imported Archives
6. Reference the XSL mappings in the Interface Mapping

How to solve extra commas in CSV files in FCC..!!

Hi,
I have the CSV file with comma(,) separator which has around 50 fields. Among them there were some description fields which has comma (ex: karan,kumar) which has to come as a single field and comes as 51 fields instead of 50.
Due to this, im facing problem at File content conversion and it is failing with error " ERROR converting document line no. 8534 according to structure 'Header':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration / structure 'Header.': More elements in file csv structure than field names specified!
We have around 10 fields which comes in this way.Any idea how to solve this issue?
Thanks
Deepthi.

Hello Deepthi,
The option here is use fieldFixedLengths instead of fieldSeparator. By this way evethough you have more fields in file than given filednames, it will not trigger any error. (But this one will still keep the commas which you might not need in the xml structure, though you can replace these in mapping anyway this is one solution )
enclosureSign option you can try, but you need do include the delimeter in you file structure, which is again a troublesum.
eg:- field1, | karan,kumar|,fieldn
In case you are familier with Adapter Module you can do it easily, but its a final option as far i am concern.

Prasanna
