Download Excel file from Webdynpro

I have recently created functionality in a Webdynpro application that downloads an Excel 2003 file. Unfortunately I also need to allow a download for a file to prior versions of Excel. Does anyone have a code snippet that will perform this type of function?

Hi Atilio.
The tutorial 34 under the following link:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/webas/webdynpro/tutorial on excel export using the web dynpro binary cache - 34.htm
Explains how to download the content of a table from a wdp app to an Excel 2003 file.
Best Regards.
Gregory.

Download Excel file from from a second server

Hi,
In our Java based web application (jsp pages) users need to download Excel files stored on a different server (business tier) than the first application server server that hosts only the presentation tier.
For security reasons users don't access the second application server. From a technical point of view what's the best solution to answer this requirement ? The logic should be the following: the user clicks on a report name that is displayed on this browser, the request is sent to the first application server that will retrieve the report stored on a second server and will return it to the user.
Thanks a lot.

it's been a while since i've done ejb stuff, but i believe you can configure an ejb to "runas" a different user. so, you would configure an ejb on the accessible server to "runas" a user who has access to the secondary server.

Strange: When download excel file from Apex, it ask XDB username/password.

Hi
I'm using Apex 4.0.1 on Oracle 10.2.0.3, I have a application where end user can upload some file(excel/PDF/Word) as an attachment and later on they will download. Everything is fine but one thing:
When User press the download button, a popup window asking you whether you want to open it or save it. when it's PDF/Word file, all works fine no matter what you choose; but when it's an Excel file, if we try to open it(press the open), it will popup a window saying 'XDB need a username and password'. But if you ingore it, it did open the file without any issue; If user press Save button, no issue at all.
So the app still work but it's kind of annoying..
Any one seen this before? Any idea?
Thanks
Mike

You should open the excel file in binary mode, in that case, no errors will occur.
Also, there is a very good package located on
http://stareyes.homeip.net:8888/. It's free. The only thing is the server open
for a certain hours during the weekday. 11:00amp to 7:00pm New York time zone.

I am unable to download excel file from company portal.

I have not installed any reader. Kindly suggest which is the best software for create, edit, view PDF, Word, Excel etc ...

Apple’s having trouble with the iTunes Store servers right now. Wait for them to resolve the issue.

Download all excel files from sharepoint location to local folder

Hi,
How to I copy all excel files stored at sharepoint location to local folder?
Regards,
Nidhi

Hi NidhiP,
To download Excel files from a SharePoint library by using SSIS, we need to make use of the Script Task. In the Script Task, we can use the methods provided by
Lists Web Service to work with SharePoint files, and then use the
WebClient.DownloadFile Method or
FileStream Class to transfer the files from SharePoint to local file system.
For the code examples, please refer to:

Filename of downloaded Excel file

I frequently download Excel files from a website that seems for the most part windows centric. These excel files have an extension of .xls, I can double click them to open, but when opened they just have the file name of WORKSHEET. If I rename the file in the finder the same thing happens. If I try to open the file in numbers I get something like
<table border="1">


<tr><td colspan = "15" valign="middle" align="center">Investor's Business Daily 100</td></tr>
<tr><td colspan = "15" valign="middle" align="center">Data as of 8/1/2008 market close</td></tr>
Any idea? Now I have to open the file in excel, then do a save as, type in the file name (if I don't want WORKBOOK), then delete (or write over) the original file. What can I tell the website people?

Hi,
You can use this function GUI_EXEC.
Let say you want to use winzip to zip the file then what you should do like this:
use this command --> ' -min -a D:\WALCOTT.ZIP D:\MBARANG.TXT'
D:\MBARANG.TXT --> path to the file you want to Zip
D:\WALCOTT.ZIP --> result zip file
The command above is depends on the software you use to zip.
then
DATA: cmdguiexec(150).
cmdguiexec = cmd.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_EXEC'
EXPORTING
command = cmdguiexec.
Hope this help you.
Best Regards,
Victor.

How to download file from Webdynpro ABAP?

Hello,
What is the best way to download a file from ABAP Webdynpro?
I tried calling method *cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download*
from within an Action of my WDA, but it got an error 06, which is "Unknown Error" (not very helpful).
The same code works when I execute it from a regular ABAP program.
I am not using ALV. I just created a file by reading a database with WDA selection fields, then transformed it to XML using CALL TRANSFORMATION.
Thanks,
Colleen

You can't use the GUI_DOWNLOAD, because you have no GUI present, which is the reason why you are getting the error. You will want to take a look at the class/method cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response

HT2488 How do I create a workflow in Automator or a script in AppleScripts to download an excel file from a specific webpage?

I would like to create a workflow in Automator or a script in AppleScript (or a combination of the two), that opens Safari to a specified page and downloads an excel file from this page and saves the downloaded document to my desktop.
Is this something that be done? If so, how?
I have so far been able to build a workflow in Automator to open Safari and added an AppleScript that takes Safari to a specific page that has an Excel document.
I can't figure out where to go from here... Any help would be apprecitated.
Thanks!

Would you have the web address the excel sheet is on?
Is there a simular web page you could point to if not?
Would there be a copy of the file on an FTP page. This would be easier.

the curl is a terminal command ( Unix ). It allows you to read a file off of the web.
man curl
provides cryptic information on the commnad curl.
press the space bar to advance a page.
press letter to q to quit.
What you may have to is to read in the web page as a text file. Go "fishing" through the page to find the excel file you need. Once you find the file, you can use curl to read the file.
curl is a very full featured command. (read complex to figure out ).
It is easier to diagnose problems with debug information. I suggest adding log statements to your script to see what is going on. Here is an example.

I can't download PDF files or excel files from my email

Why I cannot download PDF or excel files from my email. I click on the attach but it does nothing at all

You are saying that files are not opened in the mail app when you are reading the email or the file does not open when you tap on the icon?
Try quitting the mail app and the launch it again. Try restarting the iPad as well.
To quit the mail app .... Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
