Creating .xls file Using Java I/O

Hi,
I am crearting a .xls file from a oracle database that support japanese charsets(i.e it has data in UTF-8 format). I am creating the file using below java statements:
1. Writer out = new OuputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream("temp.xls"));
2. out.write(data);
So using above statements I am reading data in UTF-8 format and writing it a file using UTF-8 format.
But my created .xls files does not allow me to see japanese characters as they visible in a browser. But in place of temp.xls if I use temp.txt or temp.doc , then I am able to see the japanese characters when those files are view using TEXTPAD OR MS-WORD APPLICATIONS.
I have japanese font installed on my machine. So I am not understanding where the actual problem is with my way of file writing or with MS-EXCEL APPLICATION ....
Please suggest me some solution ....
Thanks in advance......
kumar.

Actually the way u have told result in the same. Even the file is .csv or .xls I am not able to see some japanese characters in my excel application provided I have japanese fonts installed on my machine. But when using the same servlet if i create an .doc or .txt file i am able to see japanese characters when i open .doc or .txt using MS-WORD OR TEXTPAD LIKE APPLICATIONS.

Create RFC Function using Java Program

hi
I am trying to create a small utility in java that extracts data from SAP system and loads it to local Db
For extracting data from SAP we have a custom ABAP function (RFC) running on SAP server that is called from Java using JCO3 APIs
Installation of this utility on client side involves -
1. Installing RFC on Clientu2019s SAP instance
2. Installing / Configuring Java code on Clientu2019s machine
Is there a way to install / create a RFC function using java -JCO APIs so that Step-1 can be omitted?
I had browsed through a sample provided in examples installed with JCO3 but its very trivial example can someone point to a exhaustive link or explain how this can be achieved using Java program
Thanks

Hi Amit
I am not sure I understand the question. You want to create an RFC in Java? If this is correct why not create a Remote Method in java for example as EJB or Web Service which is more standard than creating an RFC.
On the other hand if you want to create a RFC client in Java (a Program which calls a RFC in SAP ABAP system) you can use JCo APIs (which can be either standalone or on the NW Java server) or JRA (from NW 7.1 onwards).

How to compare and edit Resource bundle file using java programe

Hi All
I have two resource bundle with key, value and some comments. I need to write a java code to compare both of the values of the keys and if the values are different then i want to replace the second value with the first value.
Its a programe which will udpate the second file with the first file values.
I tried using Properties class but it didnt worked because when i am saving the file using store method it removes all the comments and the order of text also got disturbed.
How I need to do this any help appriciated.
Please elt me know if someone needs more info.
Thanks in advance.

Let's assume the ini file is a mapping type storage (key=value) so lets use Properties object. (works with java 1.4 & up)
import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileInputStream;
import java.io.FileOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.Properties;
public class Test {
     private static Properties props;
     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
          File file = new File("test.ini");//This is out ini file
          props = new Properties();//Create the properties object
          read(file);//Read the ini file
          //Once we've populated the Properties object. set/add a property using the setProperty() method.
          props.setProperty("testing", "value");
          write(file);//Write to ini file
     public static void read(File file) throws IOException {
          FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);//Create a FileInputStream
          props.load(fis);//load the ini to the Properties file
          fis.close();//close
     public static void write(File file) throws IOException {
          FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(file);//Create a FileOutputStream
          props.store(fos, "");//write the Properties object values to our ini file
          fos.close();//close
}

you have several options:
- make your system administrator software install software on Unix and NT so that you can see a directory on the Unix machine from your NT machine, and just copy the file there
- use FTP to put the file on the Unix machine

Create xml file using java

how can i create an xml file with some data in java ?

You can use the JAXB API to create a java objects that represent a certain DTD. You can then create the xml file by using these objects to conform to a DTD. Each of the objects effectively represent one element or set of elements in an xml file. See www.java.sun.com/xml and JAXB for more details.
