Controlling location of Window Split Pane in Excel export of SSRS report to include column headings in frozen/split pane at top

With a SSRS 2008R2 report consisting of a page header and a tablix in the body with columnar information, how can you control which rows are in the Frozen Pane at the top of the workbook when exporting the report to Excel. Currently the top
pane is just the Page Header. I want to include the column headings from the tablix as well.

Hi G,
Based on my test, I can reproduce the issue in my local environment. The report only display page header as the fixed data when export it to Excel. Even the tablix header with fixed date repeats on every page when we render the report in Report Designer,
but it cannot display as fixed data in Excel. This is by design.
To work around this issue, we can add the same content in page header, then adjust the space between page header and report body to make them like a whole tablix.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

How to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports

Hello,
I am new in Crystal Reports and I wonder if it is possible to enhance the Excel export from Crystal Reports with post-processing that would be applied to the Excel exported file.
By example, is it possible to freeze the window panes, so rows and columns are frozen in place on the screen?
Is there any possibility to obtain the file exported to excel to work with.
Or maybe there is some ways to parametrize the Excel export from Crystal Reports?
Any suggestions are welcomed.

If you are using Crystal Reports 2008 you can use the Report Application SDK that is now available.
It has a object called PrintOutputController that has an export method that allows you to get access to the exported file before you send it to the user.
Check the Developer library and the samples for details.

Excel export of crosstab report in Discoverer desktop 9i not proper

Dear All,
I have made a crosstab report where I am taking the totals of the fig at all the datapoints. For this total, I have put the "Label" as &Value. When I run the report, it shows the correct output and correct values for the label field. But when I am exporting the report in excel, the label does not refresh for all the items properly. Instead it shows the Label for the very first set of data across all the itesm.
Can somebody pls tell me the reason behind this?

Excel Export of a Report containing Subreports expands first subreport, but not subsequent ones

I have a report built in SSRS 2008 that contains a subreport that is made visible by toggling an item on the row of the parent report that contains the subreport.
When I export the report to Excel it works great except that the first subreport is always expanded in Excel and the ability to toggle it is not given in Excel. All subreports are not visible (toggled as not shown) when exporting, yet the first subreport is always shown in Excel as an expanded value with no ability to toggle in Excel. All the other subreports are exported correctly as not visible with a plus sign next to the parent row to expand it.
Any ideas what might cause this?

I've have the same issue but haven't found a solution yet. Do you remember if you ever solved your problem?

Column headings are mismatched when export to excel (Data Only)

Hi All,
We have an old Crystal Web Portal designed using CE10 in VS 2003.   The crystal viewer shipped with VS 2003 exports to excel (Data only) in correct order where all the columns headers are matched with the corresponding data.
We have re-written the entire new web portal in VS 2008 with using CE10 on windows 2003 server. Everything works we can view the report, page navigation, export to PDF, export to MS Excel 97-2000.   However when export to MS Excel 97-2000 (Data only) option, the column headings are mismatched with the corresponding data.   I don't understand what changed between VS 2003 Crystal Viewer and VS 2008 Crystal Viewer.   I think this has to be the crystal viewer problem because I'm exporting from the viewer tool bar.
Here is the API referencing in the code:
In Visual Studio I'm referencing all CE10 10.0.3300 version api's. Howerver since Crystal Viewer with VS 2008 is newer and has 10.5.3700 version I'm using CrystalDecision.Shared and CrystalDecision.Web are version 10.5.3700.   These seems to have no problem. The entire web portal works fine.
More about Web Portal:
-User is validated upon login with CE10
-use selects the report from the list
-Report ID is then passed to reportdocument
-reportdocument API loads the report and
-Viwer.reportsource= reportdocument.reportsource
We cannot update Crystal Enterprise 10 right now.   I'm in the middle of deploying new web portal with VS 2008.   I have to resolve the Export excel (Data only) option and have the column headers matched with the data in excel.   I have tried everthing.
Can some help here.
thanks

Hi,
The report saves the printer information and if it can connect to the exact same printer then the print options will get passed to the printer.
If the report is being sent to a different printer, Crystal doesn't know if this new printer will support the same settings, ie. duplex or color. In our case we were setting the report to print duplex printing and landscape. When our application went to print it actually crashed because some of the printers didn't support duplex.
What we did is disable the print button on the viewer and added the PrintDialog control to our form. Use the ReportDocument.PrintOptions method to set the properties for the PrintDialog control.
var printDialog1 = new PrintDialog();
printDialog1.UseEXDialog = true;
printDialog1.AllowSomePages = true;
if (myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings != null)
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings = myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings; //Use any saved printer settigns
     printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies = Convert.ToInt16(copies);
     dr = printDialog1.ShowDialog();
     if (dr == DialogResult.OK)
     myLink.Parent.SavedPrinterSettings = printDialog1.PrinterSettings;     //Save the latest printer settings
     nCopy = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Copies;               //Get the number of Copies
     sPage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.FromPage;               //Get the number of Start Page
     ePage = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.ToPage;                    //Get the number of End Page
     myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterName = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName;     //Get the printer name
     myReport.PrintOptions.CustomPaperSource = printDialog1.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSource;
     if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Vertical)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Vertical;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Horizontal)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Horizontal;
     else if (printDialog1.PrinterSettings.Duplex == System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Simplex)
          myReport.PrintOptions.PrinterDuplex = PrinterDuplex.Simplex;
Hope this helps,

How to generate Excel files in Oracle Reports

Hi,
I've already built a JSP using oracle reports and Deploy on the report service. I also add a button to the left of the JSP.The next thing I want to do is:when user click on the button, the system will prompt a excel file contains the same content as the JSP file.
Can anybody teach me how to do? Thanks very much

Hi Ni,
It may not be possible to see the output of the SAME report in Excel as well. You will have to design another report which can open in Excel. You can follow this demo:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/excel/index.html
Then you can add an action to your button so that it opens the new report in a new browser window. This new browser window will open MS Excel and show the report inside Excel.
The reason that you can't output the SAME report in HTML as well as MS Excel is because we use page contentType to specify the application that the browser should open the document in (the application can be MS Word, MS Excel, etc). For example,
<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
But we can only specify one contentType for a JSP, so the report can either be viewed as HTML or inside MS Excel.

Excel Exports

1) Does anyone have a solution for creating an Excel Export with a chart / graph included?
2) Is there any way to include formatting in an Excel Export? I'd like to be able to include Borders, Font Coloring, Formula's etc.

Vega,
What version of ApEx are you running? I know in 2.x you could not export graphs "directly" into excel. However, although I've never done it, I've read documentation from companies that opted to use ApEx over Java and ASP solutions... One practice was to leverage the use of individuals familiar with VBA to format reports exported from ApEx. Have any of those around? ;)

Sorry, meant to say VBA (Visual Basic for Applications)

Cannot open Excel files on Windows share and ONLY Excel files

I'm browsing a Windows share and for whatever reason it will not let me open Excel files directly from the network location. If I view the Coverflow, I can see a a preview of the actual file as well as copy it to the desktop and open it.
I receive an error message that says "filename.xls could not be found."
I can open up any other file from the network location, but not Excel files.
I checked the file permissions and they mirror the other file types, it may be worth mentioning that I utilize network synchronization and view these files from a PC as well. I also noticed when I create a new file in that location, it will only appear in OS X and not Windows, but is still completely accessible.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

Viewing file location in Windows explorer from within organizer. PE 10

Does anyone know how to view a cataloged file location WITHIN organizer Elements 10 by where the orgainzer opens up the file location in Windows Explorer (Not windows IE Explorer browser). I know you can see the file path in the properties pane but I swear some how I clicked on a file once and Explorer opened up in organizer 10 showing the location in the file tree on the hard disk. I am using Widows 7 Home preminum with all updates. Am I crazy? Thanks.

If you want to see the folder tree click the display button (near top right of Organizer) and switch to Folder Location View.

I edit the location in the info pane, but it doesn't show up in Places!

Hi everyone, I have recently started to use iPhoto '09 but having a little difficult with Places. I do not have geotagging, so I am editing the location of my photos manually (nothing too specific, just the city). When I first attempted it, I used the info pane for the event, added the city (saw a pin drop in the appropriate location on the mini-map in the info pane) and then clicked done. However when I went to the Places window...no pins were on the world map!
I closed the computer and decided to try again the next day. Although I cannot imagine I did anything different, this time it worked! Yeah!
But today I added new photos and again edited the locations in the info pane (clicked the little 'i' in the right bottom corner), but while the info pane shows the correct location both in words (Location) and on the mini-map...when I go to the Places window, the pins are no where to be found (only see the pins from the previous day).
Am I missing something simple here? It's driving me nuts! hahaha...

I'm going from memory since this is done from work, but I believe you have to use semi-complete addresses (IE., 'Chicago' by itself won't work, you need to use 'Chicago, Il.' or 'Chicago, Illinois'. IF the address is for a 'Place' iPhoto knows (and it knows hundreds if not thousands of places) it will pop up and allow you to choose that location. If nothing happens, that probably means iPhoto doesn't know that 'Place' and you need to provide a more complete or more accurate name for it. Like I say, try getting in the habit of using at least a City and State... you can also choose the 'Locate on Map' feature and it will actually show a map of the place and you can Move the Pin to exactly where you want it, choose from Satellite View, Terrain View, Map view, zoom in, out, or enlarge or reduce the area covered by the Pin (the Blue Circle around the pin. Hope this helps...

How to? switch between the following mission control preference "group windows by application" on the fly? OR have both readily available

Is there any way to switch between the following mission control preference "group windows by application" on the fly? I would like to turn this feature on and off quickly. OR have both readily available?
If osx 10.9 does not support this, does any one know if automater can be used to creat a short cut to turn this preferance on and off?
Current solution (not much of a solution)
I currently added the preferance control icon for mission control on my dock.

Do you mean the general System Preferences icon? ...If so, it's possible to put the icon specifically for the Mission Control pane in the Dock:
I'm on Mountain Lion and that Preference Pane is in: Macintosh HD > System (not Users) > Library > PreferencePanes > Expose.prefPane
...Drag that Expose.prefPane to the right-hand side of the Dock, say, next to the Trash. Then you can simply click on the resulting Expose Prefs icon in the Dock to open its Prefs panel.

(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
