Csv/excel

hello,
i have a html report
i wish to have a option that generates html
how do you do this
tips??
<cfloop query="westcoastCases">
<tr>
<td>#allcaseID#</td>
<td>#dateformat(CRTN_DT,"mm/dd/yyyy")#</td>
</tr>
</cfloop>

Hello,
could you be a bit more specific?
Do you want to generate the file in a different way or do you want to modify the file before opening it in Excel?
To generate the header into the csv you can use an example from BluShadow {message:id=9525835}, to generate formatted "Excel" files you can ask the FAQ {message:id=9360007}

Connecting to CSV/Excel

Good Morning,
I'm working with a back-up admin on setting up the CSV/Excel JDBC drivers to enable me to connect VC models to CSV/Excel data.
Can anyone provide a step-by-step (or more detailed description) for the setup steps at: <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/vc/jdbcConnectionSetup&.">SDN VC - JDBC Connection Setup</a>
After navigating to the described service, the admin is not sure of the next step.
Are the above steps at SDN for NW04s?
Thanks

There is a whole section in the WIKI with links to setup for different BI connectors:
https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/VC/Setup+connections
And yes, those are all valid for NW04s.

Mime mapping in web.xml not working for csv/excel

I am using the weblogic 8.1 app server. I want to serve up some static content
from an "exploded" web application (dir structure instead of a war file). This
static content includes html files and csv files that cause the browser to give
an option to the user to open the file in excel or download to disk. I have inserted
the following mapping inside web.xml in the exploded directory structure...
<web-app>
<mime-mapping>
<extension>csv</extension>
<mime-type>application/vnd.ms-excel</mime-type>
</mime-mapping>
</web-app>
I redeployed the "web application". When I try to access a csv file, instead of
giving me the save/open dialog, the browser displays the ASCII contents of the
csv in the browser like an HTML file. Am I missing a step? Is the xml above not
for the functionality that I am trying to implement here?
Thanks.

Hi All:
Thanks for all your help regarding the adfAuthentication success_url. Now I am able to configure to make this work. But now I am facing another issue i.e. I am getting 401 Not authorized message when the success_url is pointed to the jspx page.
Note: I am using custom login module similar to DBProcOraDataSourceLoginModule so my roles are stored in the custom Role class. So I am not sure how to pass this role info to the security in ADF in order to authorize the page to be viewed.
Could you please help and can you point me to any specific link.
Thanks & Regards

Import CSV/Excel data into Flex Datagrid using Java/JSP

Hi,
Is there any way we can import excel/csv data into flex datagrid component.
I see that is been done using php in this site. http://code.google.com/p/as3xls/
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

You can store the list of data from the Excel sheet that you have read already into an ArrayList
Then go through the JDBC tutorial, and learn how to insert a single record into the table.
After you understand how to insert a single record, you can iterate through the ArrayList of data and insert them into the table in the database.
If you know JDBC, see if you can use OR Mapping frameworks like Hibernate or iBatis, they make it very easy to manage database in Java.

Need to upload a CSV/Excel to a table in OAF page

Any idea how this can be done?

Is that the process or do we have any other process. If so could you please point out to some examples of using messageFileUpload?

Date Format in CSV & Excel

Hi,
I have a search result which has some date columns and have a button to export these results to CSV file.
The database column is of datatype VARCHAR but date is stored in it and displayed, so while fetching data from there we are converting it to date in format DD-MON-YYYY.
while displaying the search results, its working perfectly fine.
When downloaded to CSV file, and Opened with Any Text Editor other than Excel, the date format is proper as in screen ie. DD-MON-YYYY
But, once we open the CSV in excel update few columns and save the file, the date gets saved in the DD-MON-YY format.
Since this file will be uploaded back to the application, we can either design our recieving application to expect date in DD-MON-YY format. But is there anything that we can do to have it maintained in DD-MON-YYYY format itself ?

Can any one please help me out. Iam in need of a labview code which has a excel sheet consists of
3 columns
1) DATE
2) TIME
3) TEMPERATURE value.
If a string is entered as a input and that string should be compared with the Names under DATE AND TIME column in the excel sheet and if the string entered matches with any of the string under the DATE AND TIME column then it should pass one output
1) The value of that string
For example if Iam entering the i/p as 10/7/2012 03:55:05 PM then it should search the strings under DATE AND TIME tab and if row 8 as the 10/7/2012 03:55:05 PM string with a value of 461.106 then it should return two o/p's one as 461.106
If the entered string is not matched with any of the strings under DATE AND TIME coulmn it should return an output as zero.
i am attaching a excel sheet screen shot which is in csv format
Thank You

Wrong output in excel CSV - Excel displayes more records as the report

Hello,
I have a report with a parameteritem : p1_date_ from that will be filled by
Source value or expression
select to_DATE ('12/MAY/2005','DD/MON/YYYY') from dual
The report query used this Parameter in the query: SELECT * FROM .. WHERE ( TRUNC (at.my_date) >= :p1_date_from
OR :p1_date_from IS NULL)..
Run the application -> only one record comes back, but
If you click on the excel export and show the file two records will be displayed
It looks like that the excel link will not use the parameter p1_date_form
after pressing a button Go with (go_submit) -> Excel will display only 1 record -> correctly.
This looks like default behaviour, but the problem is how to "synchronize" both the Report and the CSV export?
I received an idea from Scott Spadafore, but the implemetation doesn't work as expected.
If needed I have a short testcase tablecreate script, table insert script and application export .

I tested the testcase in htmldb.oracle.com and it was not longer reproduceable, but my customer needs a workaround for version 1.6

Csv excel problems line breaks

hello there, i am new to cf but i have this report that has a
csv option for excel.
but the problem is :
it has breaks between cells.
meaining:
there are rows/records that ar empty
for example:
row 1 is filled with columns.
then
empty row
empty row
then,
row 3 is filled with columns.
any ideas?

You shouldn't have to do anything special in HTMLDB to export data with LF in the text.
Build your region based on a SQL statement ie:
Select ID, title, subtitle from document
On the report attributes page set CSV Output to YES and add a label for the url.
When you click the CSV url you should get output that looks like this:
"ID","TITLE","SUBTITLE"
"1","My Title","My subtitle
has a line break"
"2","Title2","My subtitle2"
Excel or Word should be able to read this file just fine.
I set up a test at:

Import CSV Excel into Access - Missing Data

I am saving a file in Excel as a .CSV. When I import it into my Access database, some of the data is missing

Please see this.
http://www.accessmvp.com/KDSnell/EXCEL_Import.htm
Instead of Excel, use CSV, like this.
DoCmd.TransferText acImportDelim, "ImportSpecificationName",
"TableName", "C:\yourCsv.csv", True

How to download a csv/excel file stored in a server using OA Framwork

Hi All,
We have a requirement where we have to generate a CSV file using PL/SQL block and the user shoul download that csv file to his client machine whenever it requirs to him. We have generated csv file and save the same in a particular location in the server. As the CSV file size may be around 10 to 15 MB we feel the storing and retrieving of the csv file in a BLOB object is a performance hit. Now we want to dowload the file from the csv file path without storing the csv file into database BLOB object.
Is this possible using OA framwork? if so please guide me how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sathesh.

If u know following details you can use below method to download any file ( XLS/any) its generic method I have used in one of my project-
1. File Name with Extension
2. File path at which it has been placed
3. Page Context (you must know i assume)
public void DownloadFileFromServer(OAPageContext pgeContext, String file_name_with_path,
String file_name_with_ext)
System.out.println("Filename path "+file_name_with_path + "File Name:" + file_name_with_ext);
HttpServletResponse responseVar = (HttpServletResponse)pageContext.getRenderingContext().getServletResponse();
if (((file_name_with_path == null) || ("".equals(file_name_with_path))))
System.out.println("File path is invalid.");
File fileToDwnld = null;
try
fileToDwnld = new File(file_name_with_path);
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println("Invalid File Path or file does not exist.");
if (!fileToDwnld.exists())
System.out.println("File does not exist.");
if (!fileToDwnld.canRead())
System.out.println("Not Able to read the file.");
String MADfileType = getMADMimeType(file_name_with_ext);
System.out.println("File Type - " + MADfileType);
responseVar.setContentType(MADfileType);
responseVar.setContentLength((int)fileToDwnld.length());
System.out.println("File Size is " + fileToDwnld.length());
responseVar.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\"" + file_name_with_ext + "\"");
InputStream inStr = null;
ServletOutputStream outStr = null;
try
outStr = responseVar.getOutputStream();
inStr = new BufferedInputStream(new FileInputStream(fileToDwnld));
int ch;
while ((ch = inStr.read()) != -1)
outStr.write(ch);
catch (IOException e)
e.printStackTrace();
finally
try
outStr.flush();
outStr.close();
if (inStr != null)
inStr.close();
catch (Exception e)
e.printStackTrace();

How to delete 1st 2 rows in a csv/excel file?

Hi,
Is there a way to read a csv file and delete the 1st 2 rows (or any no. of rows I would like to)?
I'm currently using Ben Nadel's GREAT piece of code (Parsing CSV Values into a Coldfusion query) found at http://www.bennadel.com/index.cfm?dax=blog:501.view as follows:

<cffile action="read" file="#variables.uploadedFile#" variable="csvResult">

<cfinvoke component="components.csvToQuery" method="CSVToQuery" returnvariable="qCsvData">
     <cfinvokeargument name="CSV" value="#trim(variables.csvResult)#">
     <cfinvokeargument name="FirstRowIsHeadings" value="true">
</cfinvoke>
I need to manipulate qCsvData to delete the 1st 2 rows.
Any ideas would be most welcome.
Thanks and regards,
Yogesh Mahadnac

Hi Joseph,
Thanks again for your brilliant answer!
I still need you help by the way, if you don't mind, of course!
I've based myself on your logic and tried to implement it differently.
(apologies if it's a bit complicated. it's almost 1 o'clock in the morning here, and sleep is getting over...)
Here is what I've done:
Now, I know that I need to ignore the 1st 2 rows, which means, my headers in fact start on the 3rd row.
I've created my column names dynamically and then added rows to my query object.
<cffunction name="removeRecords" returntype="Query" output="false" description="I remove records from a query.">
     <cfargument name="queryObject" type="Query" required="true" hint="Query to remove records from" />
     
     <cfset var myQry = QueryNew("")>
     <cfset var i = 0>
     <cfset var j = 0>
     <cfset var columnName = "">
     <cfset var columnList = "">
     <cfset var tempList = arguments.queryObject.columnList>
    
    <cfloop index="i" from="1" to="#arguments.queryObject.recordcount#">
        
        <cfif i gt 2>
            <cfif i eq 3>
                
                <cfloop index="j" from="1" to="#listLen(tempList)#">
                    <cfset item = ListGetAt(tempList,j)>
                    
                    <cfset columnName = replaceNoCase(trim(arguments.queryObject[item][i])," ","_","All")>
                    
                    <cfset columnName = replaceNoCase(trim(columnName),"/","_","All")>
                    
                    <cfset QueryAddColumn(myQry,columnName,"cf_sql_varchar",ArrayNew(1))>
                    
                    <cfset columnList = columnList & columnName & ",">
                </cfloop>
                
                <cfset columnList = left(columnList,len(columnList)-1)>
            <cfelse>
                
                <cfset QueryAddRow(myQry)>
                <cfloop index="j" from="1" to="#listLen(tempList)#">
                    <cfset item = ListGetAt(tempList,j)>
                    <cfset fieldValue = trim(arguments.queryObject[item][i])>
                    <cfset col = listGetAt(columnList,j)>
                    <cfset QuerySetCell(myQry,col,fieldValue)>
                </cfloop>
            </cfif>
        </cfif>
    </cfloop>
     <cfreturn myQry>
</cffunction>
Question:
Is there a simpler way to do the following?
<cfset columnName = replaceNoCase(trim(arguments.queryObject[item][i])," ","_","All")>
<cfset columnName = replaceNoCase(trim(columnName),"/","_","All")>
I'm trying to replace all blank spaces and any "/" between words with an "_".
I know we can use Regular Expressions to do it much simpler, but I'm not very familiar with the syntax.
I'd be grateful if you could please provide me with the correct syntax.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Yogesh

How to convert org hierarchy XML to CSV/Excel format using PI/XI

Hi All,
I am working with SAP PI/XI for the first time and need some help file conversion of complex hierarchy XML to CSV file using PI. I have done plenty of research on SDN and could find much related to what I want to do.
Here is the example of how my input XML would look like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<PartyMaster type="OrgHierarchy" name="Compass Group Owned">
<PartyMasterHierarchy>
<Hierarchy level="3" nodeName="Bon Appetit Sector" type="Sector" ID="A00000" refID="A00000">
<Hierarchy level="4" nodeName="BA Division" type="Division" ID="AB0000" refID="AB0000" >
<Hierarchy level="5" nodeName="BA East Coast Region" type="Region" ID="ABE000" refID="ABE000">
<Hierarchy level="6" nodeName="Engstrom, John RVP" type="District" ID="ABE01" refID="ABE01" >
</Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
<Hierarchy level="3" nodeName="Levy Sector" type="Sector" ID="K00000" refID="K00000".
<Hierarchy level="4" nodeName="Levy Sector Division" type="Division" ID="K90000" refID="K90000">
<Hierarchy level="5" nodeName="Levy Sector Region" type="Region" ID="K99000" refID="K99000">
<Hierarchy level="6" nodeName="TBA Total" type="District" ID="K9901" refID="K9901"> </Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
</Hierarchy>
</PartyMasterHierarchy>
</PartyMaster>
I would like to get CSV output in the format below
DISPLAY_NAME, DOCUMENT_DESCRIPTION, PARENT, EXTERNAL_ID, ORG_UNIT_TYPE
Bon Appetit Sector, Bon Appetit Sector,constant value, A00000, constant value
Levy Sector, Levy Sector, constant value, K00000, constant value
BA Division, BA Division, A00000, AB0000, constant value
Levy Sector Division, Levy Sector Division, K00000, K90000, constant value
BA East Coast Region, BA East Coast Region, AB0000, ABE000, constant value
Levy Sector Region, Levy Sector Region, K90000, K99000, constant value
Engstrom John RVP, Engstrom John RVP, ABE000, ABE01, constant value
TBA Total ,TBA Total ,K99000, K9901, constant value
1) How do I go about this? I think I have to configure an adapter but which adapter would give me the desired result?
2) How do I tell PI when to pick the file from and where to place it after conversion? Could this be done in adapter configuration?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

>>> 1) How do I go about this? I think I have to configure an adapter but which adapter would give me the desired result?
Use File adapter at the sender side to pick up the xml and use file adapter at the receiver side (message protocol file content conversion) to convert xml format to csv.
Basically you have to configure in the file adapter (FCC) on the receiver side to get desired csv structure from XML.
>>> 2) How do I tell PI when to pick the file from and where to place it after conversion? Could this be done in adapter configuration?
Configure sender file adapter to pick up the file from the specified directory. Configure receiver file (fcc adapter) to drop the csv file after conversion.
For sender adapter
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/content.htm
For receiver adapter in our case FCC (FILE content Conversion) follow the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW04/helpdata/en/d2/bab440c97f3716e10000000a155106/content.htm
Hope answered your question.
Mapping area: simple suggestion. Keep input and output message same structure and do one to one mapping. In the receiver fcc adapter configure for csv structure following instruction given in the above second link
Note: FCC adapter does not support nested structure more than 2. So in your case you can achieve using conversion agent tool. Otherwise you might have to achieve through some graphical mapping.
