CSV to XLS

Alright folks.
I'd like to use Labview to convert a csv into an xls spreadsheet file.
I was thinking labview could open the spreadsheet, search for the commas "," and convert them into a "/t".
is there a search function that does this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

An XLS spreadsheet file has a great deal different in it aside from using tab vs comma for the delimiter. An XLS file is a proprietary Microsoft format that needs to be written from Excel. (Which can be done through LabVIEW) If you simply want to convert a comma separated value text file to a tab delimited text file, that is easy, see attached snippet

The report options under "configure" and CSV or xls.

The report options under “configure” does not give .csv or xls as options. Instead of using vi to pass data to database, is there a simple way to transfer all the results (just like the way in the report that automatically generated) to .csv or xls...
Thanks.

Hi,
in order to modify the report generation, you have to understand the way how TestStand works in regard of the report generation.
There is a tutorial which explains this which you can find here. But please note that the tutorial is currently undergoing an improvement process.
The reason that the report options don't give you the option for xls or csv as report is:
Neither xls nor csv are predefined. So for example measurement values in xls can be placed in a special worksheet or included in a main sheet in a certain column.
hope this helps,

System error in program CL_RSR_WWW_PAGE and form 01EXPORT_DATA:01
Can someone let me know what needs to be done? Our ICM is also up and running.

DW8 Form to create and attach a CSV or XLS file instead of just an e-mail?

Hi,
Is it possible to create a Dreamweaver 8 form that submits an
e-mail that contains/attaches a comma deliminated file (CSV) or an
Excel XLS file containing the contents of what the user filled out
in the form?
I can't seem to find anything about this anywhere. I have
seen it done before (not sure if the form was created with DW or
not). We want a file attached to an e-mail so we can import the
results of a form into an Access database instead of having the
user enter in what was returned in the content of the e-mail (don't
want user input errors, extra work, etc...).
How would I do this?
Thanks,
-paulw

>Thanks, but the application is not a web application.
Then you will need to provide more information about your
client and server environment and more of the requirement details.
Until we know what you have to work with, we can't offer any
suggestions.

Prasanna

Hi,
How do you want to upload the file?
Do you want to convert the file into .xls and the load the individual files to MS sharepoint.
For, loading individual files, then you can convert the file to.xls by,
Goto- Infocube - context Menu -- Display Data - click on Local File button on toolbar,
Then select the type sa spread sheet and save it to the required destination.

Export text from pdf to csv or xls / identity-H text

Hello,
Is it possible to export text in a pdf to a csv or an excel file (with coresponding page numbers where the text was found)
For a product we make we need to put all the text of a page into the metadata of the page. Normally we use a ghostscript for this but when customers provide a PDF with identity-H text this won't work most of the time. When this doesn't work we create a postscript of this PDF and recreate a PDF with distiller, quite often after this the ghostscript will recognize the text, but if it doesn't work... then we need to put all the text manually in an excel file and with all the text boxes and lay-out in the PDF this is a quite frustrating task.(especially a few hundred pages)
The question on top is a sulotion which will work if it is possible because that is failproof but, if someone knows an other solution to the actual problem we experience with identity-H that would be very helpfull too.
Thanks in advance!

Here is a visual example of what I am referring to, showing the right-click location and the different options that appear. (The blue selection box is from me selecting and dragging around the question from a non-text area)

Importing custom created security profiles from a .csv or .xls document

Hi Experts,
We have a prerequisite where we need to create custome security profiles as per the requirement.
These security profiles I have created in an excel sheet and wish to import it in the server.
The reason behind creating the security profiles through excel sheet is that in the future we will be working on a new server. So instead of doing any rework we can directly import from this excel sheet.
For creating a security profiles through an excel sheet, I have mentioned the following things in the excel sheet.
1. In a "eso_security_profiles" i have mentioned the profile name,description,internal ID, etc..
DISPLAY_NAME       DOCUMENT_DESCRIPTION    INTERNAL_NAME     CATEGORY COLLAB_PROFILE    INTERNAL_TYPE     RESTRICTED
DISPLAY_NAME:Category Manager
DOCUMENT_DESCRIPTION   : This profile is for the user who has full rights only at project business document but cannot approve and have no access rights to the master data
INTERNAL_NAME : fci.profile.doc.category_manager
CATEGORY :   BUYSIDE
COLLAB_PROFILE    :   TRUE
INTERNAL_TYPE     :
RESTRICTED   :
2. And in the "eso_security_rights" I have mentioned the access rights as per requirement.
RESOURCE        SECURITY_PROFILE                               ALLOW_PERMISSIONS      DENY_PERMISSIONS
rfx.RFXDoc        fci.profile.doc.wft_category_manager     ODP_READ
Please give some inputs on this. Am not sure if what I have done is the right way.
Thanks.
Vaishali.

Hi Vaishali,
I understand that you need these security profiles in another server going forward. I would suggest another way around rather.
Please create the Security profiles in SAP Sourcing itself, then export the OMA file. When you move into another server please import this OMA file. This will serve the purpose of having the new security profiles in the new server.
If you are modifing something in the workbook, then you should carefully review field details. As I am not sure which version of SAP Sourcing and details of workbook, so I would suggest the above way to try out.
Hope this helps
Thanks

How to read a file whose extension in .csv / .xls

Hello everyone,
I figured that " read from spreadsheet file" can be used if you want to read from a .txt file which may be saved in a spreadsheet format. But if you want to read from a .csv or .xls file, this function returns garbage. Is there a way to read from .csv or .xls files ??
Thanks

.csv and .xls are completely different.
.csv (="comma separated values") is just as ASCII table using a comma as field seperator and linefeed to seperate rows. If you set the delimiter to comma in "read from spreadsheet file", you should be able to read it just fine. Just make sure you never go to any countries where the comma is used as a decimal seperator, or everything will mess up.
.xls is a proprietary fle format by microsoft and you will not be able to read it using plain file I/O. Open one in notepad and you'll see what I mean.
Of course it is possible that your .xls file is not actually a microsoft excel file. Once in a while you see programs posted here that write plain ASCII tables, but decorate the file with an .xls extension. While this does not make it an excel file, the file manager will cause it to be opened by the excel application when double-clicked. Fortunately, excel often does a pretty good job reading such ASCII tables and the data "looks right" in excel. Excel is also the default application to open .csv files.
There are ways to read and write genuine excel files. The example finder has some examples.
If you don't mind, attach one of your data files for our inspection.

How to convert from line chart data to CSV format

Hi ,
I am using Flex 3 and AS.
I am getting data from MS SQL and display the data as line
chart this is ok.
But i want to convert this line chart data to CSV or .xsl
format.I find one example in fourms the from data grid to CSV
For this URL is
http://www.abdulqabiz.com/blog/archives/flash_and_actionscript/datagriddataexporter.php
But i want Line chart to CSV.Please help me.

Line chart is a just a visual representation of some data
that's sitting in your database. Isn't it? You load this in Flex,
probably using HTTPService class, and pass it to some chart object.
Now when use says that she needs it in CSV format, you're
gonna have to send another request to the server to produce the
same data, convert into CSV or XLS format and let user download it.
Of course, if use doesn't want to download, you don't have to
go to the server, at least for CSV format. You can convert the same
data that used plot the chart to convert to CSV.
Am I missing something here?

Long number in CSV file appearing in scientific notation by default

Hi,
How can I stop a long number in a CSV file that is opened in excel from appearing in scientific notation by default?
eg.
"hello","778002405501 ", "yes"
becomes:
hello | 7.78002E+11 | yes
I have tried wrapping the data in quotes in the csv but to no avail.
Thanks in advance,
Alistair

You can change the extension from ".csv" to ".xls" and use table to form the data and use
style=”mso-number-format:\@;”
Please read the sample code below in Classic ASP:

Export Of Data In The .CSV Format With Column Headings On Top

I'm trying to export data in the .csv format from a report (Crystal Reports XI Release 2). When I export the data, the heading appears in the first few columns on the left hand side (i.e. columns "A" thru "G") for every row, rather as a column heading on top. These header describe the data beneath it. I tried various combinations of export options. The file needs an extension .csv (or .xls) for the tool that uses the data. Any suggestions how I can accomplish this ?

Abhishek,
I tried to apply your solution, but forgot that the Crystal Reports support desk updated my version of Crystal Reports XI to Release 2 for a previous problem. My CDs are Crystal Reports XI Release 1. Now I can't export at all until I figure out how to turn on the export option. I do have access to older version (version unknown) that came with one of business system. The options it has are "Character", "Tab", and "Delimeter" for "Separated Values (CSV)". It does not have the option that you mentioned. Is there a similar option with this older version ? Lastly, How can I turn on the "Export" for "Crystal Reports XI Release 2" ? Thanks ! ! !

Wrong forum! You need to post the question in a JDeveloper forum.
https://community.oracle.com/community/developer/english/development_tools/application_development_in_java/jdeveloper_and_adf
If you use the free Oracle sql developer (based on JDeveloper) you could just write a simple query to get data in CSV (not xls) format:
SELECT /*csv*/ * from myTable
