Display:tag and excel formatting

I am using the display:tag (http://displaytag.sourceforge.net/) code currently. I have a separate jsp for my excel dumps. However, when I export to excel, any leading zero's I have are shaved and dropped off by excel formatting. Is there a way to keep these leading zeros when going to excel??
I wasn't sure to format something in my css, then apply the class? Or to put something inside of the <display:column> tag itself.
thx in advance

I believe that is the problem. I have tried putting in quotes, but only get errors. Here is the exact field I need the code on:
<display:column property="ACCTG_LOC_CD7" title="Location" align="right" /><td/>

CF Report Builder and Excel format

Hi Everyone,
I was trying to display a report in excel format in report builder. It shows the data, but I do not find the print button options, whereas I can see it with other formats. Is this the way it is, or do I need to format anything more within my report for showing up the print button option?This is only happening for excel format
Thanks

Hi Keiko,
Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
reports.
Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
Report Builder and you can judge then.
I am sure you will have fun with CF.
Thanks

Issues while saving the Webi Report locally in pdf and Excel Format

Hi,
I am getting issues with the images on a Webi Report when I try to save the reports locally on my machine in either a pdf format or in an Excel Format.
I think the issue is that when I am trying to save the report it saves the address of the image binded in the report but it doesn't save the image/download the image and when the report is opened locally it couldn't refer to the image location.
I am using BOXIR2 with SP2.8.
I am not sure what should be the right solution for this. Any insight or resolution will definitely be helpful.

Hi;
I would investigate on the load balancer and/or Apache front end servers, are you sure you don't have a keep alive setting enabled somewhere on one of these servers? in the Tomcat connector maybe?

Reports 3.0.5 and Excel Format Report Generation

Hi Folks,
I need to create excel format report on my Windows based OS using Report Desiginer 3.0.5.
Can someone help in this matter as urgent as possible? Your help will highly be appreciated.
Thanks
Zahir

The problem is that you're going to have to jump through hoops to do something that's very, very easy in the release you're going to, so you need to seriously consider where to put your efforts. If you want to do this in 3.0, then you'll need to follow the data file report example in the 2.5 Building Reports manual (see http://otn.oracle.com/doc/reports25/bror2/ch6a.htm#toc096)

Problem with CR exporting and Excel formatting/merging

I'm currently running Visual Studio 2008 (Version 10 of CR). We have a Winforms application that runs various crystal reports I can't say there's anything particularly sophisticated about it. Just slap the report in a viewer, pass in the parameters, and run. As I've mentioned elsewhere I have not done much with CR (or Excel for that matter).
The problem is this. Our client is exporting certain reports to Excel, the 'full' version if that's the right term, not the data only option. The first field on every line of the detail is a text object consisting of several fields, concatenated. These fields combined form an ID number that we want to sort by. Unfortunately, so they tell me, this is currently impossible because in the export, the number occupies two columns and they are not merged. (Actually it doesn't look like any of the report columns bear any relation to any of the Excel columns.)
I always thought Excel export was one of those black box extras.
Now I have to ask, is there any way to customize it, programmatically or otherwise? (Am I overlooking any options?)
(Digging a bit deeper, could there be something in the CrystalDecisions API that I could use? Not sure I see anything useful in the ExcelExportOptions object yet.)

Mimetype and Excel format

Hello,
I have a problem using Mimetype in the URL when I run a report. If I specify PARAMFORM=YES, then the parameter form gets spooled to Excel instead of the actual report. Here is the URL I am using:
http://Web_server/scm/cgi-bin/rwcgi60.exe?report=Top_supplier_alpha.rdf+userid=user/pass@DB+destype=cache+PARAMFORM=yes+desformat=delimited+MIMETYPE=application/vnd.ms-excel
Any help is appreciated
Thanks

Generating reports in RTF and Excel on Sun Solaris

hi,
Could any one of u out there kindly tell me if it is possible to generate reports in RTF and Excel formats on a Report Server running in Sun Solaris machine. We use Reports 6i.
Because I am able to generate a report in RTF format on report running in Windows NT machine, but on Solaris i get a message that the Reports Server terminated abnormally!.
Thanks,
Prabhu S

Could you please tell us whether you fllowed any special procedures
or made some specific settings to launch RTF reports ?Can't help much, I'm afraid. The report and web server settings were
all made before I got here, and are not visible to me.
We can get RTF from report builder/generate-to-file and when running
reports on the web. Our servers are all Sun/Solaris boxes, although
we display on DOS boxes. Excel we get from a program, not from the
report server.
Report builder 6.0.8.10.1, database claims to be 8.1.7.0.0.
Sorry I can't help much more than saying "yes, it can be done".

Need report output same as its show in the previewer in the (.txt and .xls) format

I need an output file(in text and excel format) generated from the report builder exactly in same format as it shows in the Report previewer.
it should include all the labels as well as the data.
Thanx in advance
Reply ASAP
From
Dharmendra

Hi Dharam
You can create text file output as seen on Live Previewer by generating to Text (File->Generate to File->Text). Ensure that you run Builder with the following command line parameter:
MODE=CHARACTER
If the Builder mode is not character (BITMAP), it will generate PostScript file if you do a File->Generate to File->Text.
You can create Excel format output from Reports with Delimited output (File->Generate to File->Delimited). In the ensuing dialog box, choose comma (,) as the delimiter to obtain a CSV file. Export this file in Excel.

How to disable Format Warning when displaying JSP in Excel under MS-Office

We have an application running in WebSphere 6.0 container, the application displays jsp data in Excel, it had no problem before MS-Office 2007 was install. However, after MS-Office 2007 is used, following format warning dialog box is always displayed:
The file you are trying to open, Requests[1].xls, is in a different format than specified by the file extension.
Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file.
The user has to click the "Yes" button before the Excel report can be successfully displayed. This is not acceptable by our production users, and I need your helps to get rid of this dialog box.
The application uses struts. The Action class retrieves data from database and the data is forward to the result jsp
in an data object set in an attribute of the session's Request object. The Action class also set the display info, such as the contentType,etc., in session's Response object (please see below for details).
The result jsp retrieves data from the data object and display in Excel according to the display info provided in the
session response object.
To eliminate any possible problem that may be caused by the data, I have simplified the result jsp by removing original
codes (such as data object forwarded from Action, and Tag Library, etc.), and just hardcoded few data for displaying in Excel, however, the same format warning box still always shows up.
My Action class set display info as below:
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Expires", "0");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control","must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
response.setHeader("Pragma", "public");
response.setHeader("content-disposition","attachment; filename=Requests.xls");
My simplified result jsp is listed below:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-html.tld" prefix="html" %>
<%@ taglib uri="/WEB-INF/struts-bean.tld" prefix="bean" %>

<TITLE></TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<TABLE border="1">
     <TBODY>
     <TR>
     <td><p align='left'>myData1</p></td>
     <td><p align='left'>myData2</p></td>
     <td><p align='left'>myData3</p></td>
     <td><p align='left'>myData4</p></td>
     </TR>
     </TBODY>
</TABLE>
</BODY>
</HTML>
So, I reduced the result jsp to contain only few hardcoded data, but the format warning always shows up. Is it caused by inconsistency between the MS-Office 2007 browser and the JSP engine in WebSphere 6.0 Web container? Need your help to resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

That's the caveat of fooling your webbrowser and Excel with a plain HTML page along an Excel content-type and Excel extension.
Don't do that. That's plain stupid. Provide a real binary Excel file. You can create one using Apache POI HSSF or Andy Khan's JExcelAPI. Alternatively -and more recommended in case of large reports-, just use the CSV format. It's easy to create a CSV file in 20 lines of code and Excel perfectly understands CSV formats. Don't forget to change content-type to CSV.

ALV Grid to display in Excel Format

Hi All,
When I am executing the report RFBILA00 in ALV grid and I want to display it in EXCEL. I could not able to do.
I have selected various options like selecting Views---Excel, but the excel sheet is opened but the values are not been displayed.
Can any one suggest any other way.
Thanks,
Srini

Hi,
it may sound a bit silly, but I have tried to replicate what you did, and managed to get a simple download.
- run RFBILA00, selet ALV gid control for list output
- wait for the report to appear on the screen
- go to the "List" option (upper left row)
- from the drop-down menu of the "List" option select "Export" and the "Spreadsheet"
- the system flags in information box, confirm this message
- after confirmation the system flags another information box, "Export list to XXL", select the "Table" option and confirm
- after confirmation wait for the next information box, confirm that you want "Microsoft Excel"
- wait a few seconds for the system to populate the upcoming spreadsheet
- save a copy of the spreadsheet in .xls-format.
Instead of spreadsheet you may want to consider to "Save to Local File" and then convert to spreadsheet format within "Excel" itself.
Hope this helps.
Kind regards,
Rudolf

Display of report in excel format.

Hi,
How to display a report in excel format?? I have the display details in an internal table.
    Is it possible for the output to come in excel format as soon as we run the pgm other.than downloading from list or grid format..If so how to do it??Kindly help..
Thanks..

Hi,
Once you have all the data in the internal table, just use function module 'Download' or 'WS_Download' and pass the parameters in function module like the below for example.
if not i_list[] is initial.                          " i_list is an internal table
call function 'WS_DOWNLOAD'
      exporting
           filename            = filename1
           filetype            = 'DAT'
      tables
           data_tab            = i_list
           fieldnames          = i_header     "i _header has the field names
      exceptions
           file_open_error     = 1
           file_write_error    = 2
           invalid_filesize    = 3
           invalid_table_width = 4
           invalid_type        = 5
           no_batch            = 6
           unknown_error       = 7
           others              = 8.
endif.
Now, the excel will be created which has all the data.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Srinivasa
