Dropdown in Excel with I_OI_SPREADSHEET

Hi,
is it possible to implement a dropdown field in an excel file via interface I_OI_SPREADSHEET?
Thank you in advance.
Dominik

Hi,
I don't think that dropdown feature in excel will be possible by using I_OI_SPREADSHEET. I searched lot about it but anywhere I did not found about this feature.
To know more about I_OI_SPREADSHEET , I am sendingyou links. Please check them , it might help you.

Upload data from excel with vba by calling a function module

Hello all,
i have a problem with the function module "ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE". I will call this function module with vba to load data from excel to sap with a Buttonclick. I have copied this function module and set it remotable. But i can´t call it from excel.
Can you give me some tips how can i
upload data from excel with vba by click a button.
The problem seems the function: call method cl_gui_frontend_services=>clipboard_import in the function module, because when i comment this function call the vba-call is true but no results.
How can I call the function module correct with vba?
Thanks a lot for your tips!!!!

Using Excel with Visual C++ 6.0 (need a graph control that behaves as much like the one in CVI as possible)

I hate to beat this to death but I was unable to find a
clear answer to this question. Does NI provide Excel control from within
Visual C++ 6.0?
I read that NI supports the ANSI-C library only for Visual C++ 6.0 users:
Thread : "Re: Benifits of using measurment
studio for VC++ 6.0?"
NI REP : drohacek
Quote : "we made the decision to support Visual
C++ 6.0 users only through the ANSI-C interface and not through the Measurement
Studio MFC-based class libraries."
If there is a suggested way of controlling Excel from within Measurement Studio
for Visual C++ 6.0 then I’d love to know it.
If not, can a plain statement be made basically stating that if you want
to control Excel you can’t use a Visual C++ 6.0 environment even with Measurement
Studio support?
With .NET of course you can just decide to have Excel support added during
project creation. CVI can act as an ActiveX server and easily control
Excel just by building off the examples shipped with CVI. I see that
there is support, using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ 6.0 Project Wizard,
for taking existing CVI projects and converting them to Visual C++ 6.0 projects
or for calling CVI libraries from a .dll from within Visual C++ 6.0. I suppose I could do the work
in CVI and then convert the project but I'm so deeply tied into all my MFC calls that I don't see
how I can cleanly include the CVI libraries into my existing VC++ 6.0 projects.
What I'm really after here is a visual graph control like the one in CVI that I
can use from Visual C++ 6.0. I purchased a 3rd party graph control for use
in VC++ 6.0 that works well but isn't really visual. I mean you can't
enter any values in it until you run the program and fill it out programmatically.
Then you can see which columns are two narrow, quit the program, adjust the
column width of your now empty control, and repeat, until you get the thing
looking the way you want. If I could call into Excel from within Visual
C++ 6.0 the way I do from within .NET
then I could use Excel to hold the table and just read in the values into my table
control at run time. Basically I'd use Excel as a visual development tool
for all my tables.
I do all my coding from within CVI and Measurement Studio for Visual C++
6.0. I'd use CVI for everything if I didn't depend so heavily on certain
outside controlled C++ .dll's. Could you please suggest then what I can
do to get Excel support for Visual C++ 6.0?
Last question :
Is there any plan to ever have a NI table control like the CVI table control for
use in Visual Studio? One that you can
completely set up before you do any compiling?
I imagine that the way Microsoft sets up their environment makes this idea impossible. Otherwise someone would
have come up with a truly “visual” table control before now.
Thanks,

Hello Grant
You can most certainly use Excel with VC++ 6.0. Measurement Studio won't provided you with any classes to talk to Excel in VC++ 6.0. This is because Excel allows control via Automation and you can use its automation API to do anything you need with Excel. This is what CVI uses as well.
You can see this MSDN article on how to set this up. This mentions VC.NET, but it should work the same way.
Here is one that talks about VC 6.0 and Excel.
Here is a code project article about this.
Even with .NET, you have to do thru the Excel Automation support. Excel started shipping with Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) which are .NET wrappers about the Excel Automation object model. C++ Automation is definetely not as nice as .NET, BTW
See this document for more information about the Excel object model.
I would not recommend using the CVI Excel libraries if all you want to use them for is Excel automation. You will end up creating un-necessary dependencies and go through extra layers that way. You can make calls straight to Excel from VC++ without requiring CVI.
One quick observation about your excel approach. If you decide to use Excel as your table, you might be requiring everyone who uses your application to have Excel installed on their machines. Just wanted to make sure this was acceptable to you.
Have you looked at the Datagrid Activex control, which is one of the common controls that ships with Visual Studio? You can add it to Visual Studio by right-clicking and picking it from the list of installed activex control. If you have not already, you should check it out.
Microsoft has made significant improvements in the number of controls they provide with .NET. They have a Datagrid control that seems to be what you need.
Measurement Studio did add some high level classes for Excel and Word Automation that simplify some common tasks, but these exists for VS 2003 C++ and VS 2005 C++, not for VC 6.0. Underneath, we end up using the same Excel automation classes, so you can easily setup something similar for VC 6.0. Plus you can find alot of references online on how to use the Excel Automation object model with C++.
We currently have no plans in Measurement Studio to create a table control unfortunately. I am assuming when you said graph, you actually meant table, since Measurement Studio already provides a ActiveX graph controls for VC++ 6.0 that is very similar to the CVI graph.
On a side note, VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?
To summarize
- Yes, you can use Excel with Vc++ 6.0 without mstudio.
- Try using the Datagrid Activex control if you just need a table.
- Measurement Studio provides high-level excel and word classes for VC++ 6.0
- Measurement Studio provides a graph control for VC++ 6.0 which is very similar to the CVI graph.
- Measuremnt Studio does not have a table control.
- VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?

Export to excel with javascript/vbscript or with plsql(html table)

i have searched for a way to export data from OracleXe to excel without losing formatting .
So far i have found 2 possible relatively easy ways that i am still researching
(i do not include the ask tom sylk format way of exporting )
1 to export the query to a html table, while using stylesheets for formatting
(using microsoft specific styles)
2. use of javascript/vbscript to fill an array and write this array to excel with use
of visual basic for applications in excel.This also provides charting capabilities.
I am still researching this two ways, and have
encountered a few obstacles (help would be appreciated)
1 the first way:
a. create a button " export to excel"
b. create the following pl/sql procedure:
owa_util.mime_header('application/vnd.ms-excel');

htmldb_application.g_page_text_generated := true;
htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
c: run the procedure conditionally based on the button "export to excel"
the problem with this way is that using htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true; is not the ideal way, because it
stops further processing, but if i leave it out, the export doesn't happen.
To export to excel while retaining data formatting you have to use microsoft excel
specific styles(Seedocumentation on the microsoft site)
2.The second way:
a create a pl/sql procedure or sql query.
b use this query to fill a vbscript/javascript array with values
c write these values to excel with use of vba in excel :
the obstacle i encountered here was that i dont know how to export the result of a
query to a visual basic script or javascript array.

Using approach 1) works fine for me.
the problem with this way is that using htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true;
is not the ideal way, because it
stops further processing, but if i leave it out, the export doesn't happen. Why is this a problem?
I created the button to export the excel file on page 1 and created your pl/sql procedure on page 2 using an onload process.
Works fine.

Hyperion IR 11 -Export to Excel with formatting

Hi,
we have problem in exporting pivot sections to excel with the format intact.
Is there really an option in Hyperion IR 11, to use this as such?
I have a script that creates excel, by creating a MHTML And converting it to excel.
But I need to know other options as well.
Thanks in advance.

Hi~
I get the same question.
I export pivot sections to excel with the format intact, but it did not work.
When export pivot sections to excel can not with the format intact
My script below:
ActiveDocument.Sections["sectionname"].Export('C:\\test.xls',bqExportFormatOfficeMHTML,true,true);
What is it wrong? Thanks~

Export to excel with formatting was autowrapping text in a cell

Export to excel with formatting was autowrapping text in a cell without having to check the can grow option. When the can grow option is checked it does wrap the text however it spans multiple rows, which causes complications when trying to sort.
It worked in:
ProductVersion=10.0.0.533
ProductName=Crystal Enterprise 10 Embedded
Doesnt work in:
Crystal Reports 10.0 Service Pack 6
After the upgrade the reports did not autowrap, b/c the "can grow" option was not checked. I believe this was fixed by "ADAPT00305137 Patch ID: 36479914
Description:
When users export to Excel 97-2000 with the page-based format, text fields are wrapped, even when the "can grow" feature in the
Designer is turned off." . After we turn the option to grow on it does wrap however it spans across multiple rows. So I guess my question is there a way for it not to span multiple rows when wrapping text?
Edited by: dforde on Jan 27, 2010 11:12 PM

I could be wrong, but I believe the export to excel option exports the database values, and the export to HTML exports the values seen in the sheets. If the database values are stored as seconds, the Excel will see them as seconds, and the data will have to be formatted properly in Excel.
I haven't toyed around with Excel exports that much, but it might be possible to set up a template or macro in excel that would have the proper formatting, and use it when opening the Disco export.

THANK YOU

Hi,
I can't answer to all your questions, however I can tell you that:
2) The directory where to put the report file is specifiend in a file named
<serverName>.conf
in the sourceDire property
<property name="sourceDir" value="/directory/dove/mettere/i/report"/>
that you can find under ORACLE_HOME/reports/conf
3) The URL is
http://<server IAS address>:<port number>/<jsp file path>/<repName>.jsp?server=<report server name>&userid=<user>/<pwd>@<DB conn string>[&<param>=<valore>[&...]]
5) In IE you have only to set the previous URL in the address bar.
Hope this helps you

I recently signed up for a one month trial of adobe pro. I logged in. I cannot convert a single page of PDF file to word or Excel with this trial. I just get the request to sign up for a year. What good is the trial if I can't try it?

Hey vcomfort6,
Please ensure that you are using Adobe Acrobat and not Reader to convert PDF file to word or excel.
Could you tell me whether it is a scanned document? Does this happen with all PDFs or any specific one?
Do you get any error message? What exactly happens when you try doing the same?
Hope to hear from you.

Excel with contents in web dynpro for ABAP application

Hi Experts,
I have excel file (example "http://xxxx/test.xls") with contents in remote system. I want to incorporate this excel file into my web dynpro application. For this I used Officecontrol UI element and set the following properties for Officecontrol
1. datasource : binding with context attribute DATAS(xstring)
2. document type : ms_excel
I wrote code the following code in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method.
data :   content TYPE xstring,
           url TYPE string VALUE 'http://xxx/test.xls'.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
EXPORTING
    text           = url
IMPORTING
   BUFFER         = content .
wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATAS' value = content ).
while running my application, I getting excel without contents and with one message "SAP IOS". Please suggest how to display excel with contents in view of my application.
Can any one help me.....
Thanks & Regards

I think you are overestimating the power of the SCM_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module. By supplying a URL as the value of the input text, it isn't going to magically go read the content from the remote location and convert that to a binary string. It is going to take whatever value you supply in th importing TEXT parameter convert that to binary. In other words it is literally converting the string http://xxx/test.xls to binary. You will need some other mechanism to read the content from the remote location into ABAP memory before you can process it. You will need to use the CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or call some sort of web service to retrive the content.

Internal Table to Excel with Column Header line

Hello everyone,
I need to download Internal table data to excel with a column header line.
My Code is as follows:
TYPES: BEGIN OF y_hdr,
        head(30) TYPE c,
        END OF y_hdr.
Data: t_hdr TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF y_hdr.
Fill internal table t_adrcdata
fill the header table t_hdr
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        filename                      = C:\test.xls
        filetype                        = 'DBF'
    IMPORTING
      TABLES
        data_tab                        = t_adrcdata
       fieldnames                       = t_hdr
     EXCEPTIONS
       file_write_error                = 1
       no_batch                        = 2
This code gives me a row with column headers.
However they are all truncated after 10 chars.
The truncation is independent of column data length. Data could be of length 2,5 or 40 but the header always displays upto 10 chars.
Keeping the filename as test.xls, when I download it in ASC format instead of DBF the headers are of proper length.
What could I be doing wrong?
I know this topic has been discussed before but my question is pertaining to DBF Format download. The reason I chose DBF format is because it downloads the data in DB format and does not give in to Excel formatting.
FOr example in ASC format:
1, A field of type Char(12) used to get downloaded into excel without the leading zeros. 000012345678 --> 12345678
2. Date in format dd-MMM-yyyy in a char(11) field used to get downloaded to excel in dd-MMM-yy format.
When I chose DBF, this issue was resolved. However, the column headers got truncated at 10 chars.
Please feel free to recommend any other way of downloading to Excel and preserving format if this method is incorrect/ there is a better way.

Hi,
Take 'ASC' format for file type.
But when you declare your internal table to pass for FM you have to create all the fields with char.
Example:
data: begin of it_exl occurs 0,
        bukrs(04) type c,
        belnr(10) type c,
        buzei(03) type c,
end of ut_exl.
You need to manipulate your date format and other stuff before appending to this internal table.
Thanks,
Deepak.

Download internal table to excel with header

Hi All,
I have a requirement to download internal table contents to excel with field headings. I tried searching in forums before posting but didn't got much help.
I have used GUI_DOWNLOAD, WS_DOWNLOAD and EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT.
But unable to download the header in excel..along with data...
EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT is getting field header in excel but not downloading automatically , need to save manually which is not the requirement.
The data is huge with around 151 columns....I got 2 internal tables.
One for the data and the other with field names.
Many Thanks,
Ravi K

Hi Ravi,
You need to have 2 different internal tables for achieving the needful. One internal table would be having your data and another would store your table field names i.e., declare a structure of length 100 characters,
TYPES : BEGIN OF GTY_FIELDNAMES,
                TITLE(100),
              END   OF GTY_FIELDNAMES.
DATA: GIT_FIELDNAMES TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF GTY_FIELDNAMES,
            GWA_FIELDNAMES TYPE GTY_FIELDNAMES.
DATA : GD_FILENAME TYPE STRING,
            GD_PATH     TYPE STRING,
            GD_FULLPATH TYPE STRING,
            GD_RESULT   TYPE I.
Now have a subroutine where by you append your headings into the internal table i.e.,GIT_FIELDNAMES
   CLEAR GWA_FIELDNAMES.
   GWA_FIELDNAMES-TITLE = 'Material Number'.
   APPEND GWA_FIELDNAMES TO GIT_FIELDNAMES.
   CLEAR GWA_FIELDNAMES.
   GWA_FIELDNAMES-TITLE = 'Material Description'.
   APPEND GWA_FIELDNAMES TO GIT_FIELDNAMES.
Once you are done with it you can call up the save dialog
* Display save dialog window
   CALL METHOD CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_SAVE_DIALOG
     EXPORTING
       WINDOW_TITLE           = 'Save File As...'
       DEFAULT_EXTENSION = 'XLS'
       DEFAULT_FILE_NAME = 'SalesPlan'
       INITIAL_DIRECTORY      = 'C:\'
     CHANGING
       FILENAME                      = GD_FILENAME
       PATH                               = GD_PATH
       FULLPATH                      = GD_FULLPATH
       USER_ACTION               = GD_RESULT.
* Check user did not cancel request
   CHECK GD_RESULT EQ '0'.
   CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
     EXPORTING
       FILENAME              = GD_FULLPATH
       FILETYPE                = 'ASC'
*     APPEND                = 'X'
       WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = 'X'
*     CONFIRM_OVERWRITE     = 'X'
     TABLES
       DATA_TAB                 = GIT_FINAL                  " Internal table having data
       FIELDNAMES            = GIT_FIELDNAMES     " Internal table having headings
     EXCEPTIONS
       FILE_OPEN_ERROR       = 1                         "#EC ARGCHECKED
       FILE_WRITE_ERROR      = 2
       OTHERS                           = 3.
Hope this gets sorted your problem.
Thanks & Regards,
