Excel and jsp

Hi,
I am writing into a jsp whose response content type is excel. I have a number value in one of the beans for which i am trying to display the full number and not round it off.
for example my jsp page looks something like this
<%@ page contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
<td><bean:write name="transactionResult" property="pan" /></td>
the value in pan is a large number like 215020175160527,
when the jsp page opens up in excel its rounding it off to like 2.1502E+14. I am trying to make sure that it doesn't do that. Can it be done through my jsp code or is there some setting in excel that i can change so that its a permanent change. Please help.
Thanks

There are two products I am aware of that will factilitate this: JExcel and POI. I have used the latter, and it is relatively feature-rich and compatible with M$ Excel files. You can download a copy at jakarta.apache.org.

Excel Report JSP Exception

Hello All,
I am unsuccessfully following the "Output to Excel with Oracle9i Report" tutorial found at http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html to create a web-based JSP report that automatically opens in Excel within the browser. I created the template using Excel, saved this as a web page, opened this in Reports Builder, etc. Once I complete the report in Reports Builder and save it as a Reports JSP, I can successfully run this within Reports Builder using the "Run Web Layout" feature. The problem is when I try to run this JSP within my web-application in JDeveloper using the in-line reports server. The browser launches Excel, but then the ReportsTag.doStartTag() method throws a JspException (see below). Anyone seen this problem or been successful achieving this? I have a normal web-based JSP report that is running fine within JDeveloper using the reports in-line server. Also, the only way I could get my web/paper-based report to be generated in PDF format and Paginated HTML was to start a separate reports server and submit my report to the rwservlet of this server. Shouldn't I be able to use the in-line server in JDeveloper? Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hi Bill
Let me clarify your doubts. You can use in-process Reports server with report servlet as well as from the jsp engine. The difference here is really on what Reports you can actually run from Reports servlet and jsp engine.
For running from Report servlet:
http://xx.x.xx.xxx:9004/reports/rwservlet?reports=...
You would be using report definition file [rdf/jsp] which have paper layout information included in definition. You can run these paper reports to pdf/html/rtf/delimited/delimitedata format.
Runnig a reports from jsp engine:
http://xx.x.xx.xxx:9004/reports/examples/<reports_name.jsp>?server=...+userid=...
You would be running a report definition [jsp/xml] which have reports jsp tags as part of reports web layout information. Please note these web layout reports which you mention using reports jsp tags, are run under the jspengine using reports tag libraries. The only format you can generate here is html [or excel output].
Reports in-process server is a concept where if user has not started a exclusive Report server, Report servlet, and also reports tag libraries, would start a default reports server to run the particular request. This way it would make things easy for the user and he would need to manage a seperate report server of it own.
Thanks

Excel with JSP

Hi everyone
I relly do need some help...
I have an Oracle Database and I need to:
1. View my results (of any request) in an excel spreadsheet using JSP (I think this part is the easiest...)
2. And that is my real problem: Use an excel spreadsheet to insert values in the database with JSP...
I hope I made it clear because even for me it's really tricky...
Thanks a lot...
Yassi

There is a example in Marty Hal;l's book"Core Servlets and JSP pages".
It is static, but the same idea would work coming from a database.
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Comparing Apples and Oranges</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
<CENTER>
<H2>Comparing Apples and Oranges</H2>
<%
String format = request.getParameter("format");
if ((format != null) && (format.equals("excel"))) {
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
%>
<TABLE BORDER=1>
<TR><TH></TH><TH>Apples<TH>Oranges
<TR><TH>First Quarter<TD>2307<TD>4706
<TR><TH>Second Quarter<TD>2982<TD>5104
<TR><TH>Third Quarter<TD>3011<TD>5220
<TR><TH>Fourth Quarter<TD>3055<TD>5287
</TABLE>

Get the data from excel and insert into the database

I want to read the data from excel file, get the data from excel and insert into the database.

You can use the Apache POI HSSF API to read data from Excel files and you can use the Sun JDBC API to insert data in database.
This has nothing to do with JSP/JSTL.

Creating Charts in MS - Excel from JSP tables

Hi,
Is there any way of taking the values in my JSP tables and passing them into ms-excel, and creating graphs or charts based on these values??
I don't particulaly want to use a macro ... is this the only way? or does someone know an easier and more profficent way?
Cheers

graphs and charts - no. There is probably no easier way.
Putting the values in is not hard. Just set the return type to vnd/ms-excel instead of text/html. And send the HTML table only. This will read into newer versions of excel fine. If for older versions then make your table comma delimited data instead. This can be done through style sheets using XML.
Just some ideas. Without knowing more can't really help more.

I can't get a 'real' file excel using jsp

I have a page as this:
<%
response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=c.xls");
%>
<html><head></head><body>
i'm writing on a excel file
</body></html>
when the browser execute this page there are 2 options:
open the file c.xls or save it.
i have noticed that if i save (or i open and then save) this file on my computer i don't get a 'real' excel file.
in fact if i open this file with notepad and look at the code i find this code:
<html><head></head><body>
i'm writing on a excel file
</body></html>
then i open the file saved on my computer and i save it again with the file-type set on Cartella di lavoro Microsoft Excel(i don't know the translation for the english/american version of Excel); now i have a 'real' file excel and if i open with notepad the code is something as a lot of strange characters.
Why by default the file is saved as Pagina Web(the translation is Web Page)??
And how can i get(if it is possible) that the file is saved by default as a Cartella di lavoro Microsoft Excel(a 'real' file excel)???
thanks and sorry for my bad english

No kidding? Really?! I'm shocked as sh*t.
It's saving exactly, no more and no less, then you are giving it. You are writing out:
<html><head></head><body>
i'm writing on a excel file
</body></html>
So that's what you get. ....
I think I see you're mistake. I guess that you think that by specifying this line:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename=c.xls");
That the server is magically going to open this file for you and attach it to the response. Well, that's not in any way shape or form how it works. Setting headers set's a header in the response that the server sends to the browser. The browser looks at it and says "oh, the content of this page is a file called "c.xls". The content of the file is the "<html> ..." stuff that you write. If you want to write an Excel file, then you should open the Excel file and write it out.
But you should also probably not do this in a JSP page, but in a servlet for several reasons, all of which are discussed in several threads in this forum which you could undoubtedly find by searching for "download servlet".

Controlling the data formatting in excel using jsp.

Hi,
How to controlling the data formatting in excel using jsp with out using external jar files such as "jexcel" and "POI". And one more limitation is that it should be compatible with java 1.2.1

As an aside, "data" is already a plural. The singular is "datum."

How to use servlets and JSP for my homepage?

servlets and JSP are server-side program. If my homepage is on some web-hosting websites, can I upload the servlets and JSP to run it? if possible, where can I find such a web-hosting place?
sraiper

Not many hosts offer JSP or Servlet support (and some do but then stop and never give you a refund, grrrrrrr!!!!).
Also, ones that do support it can often be more expensive. There are some free ones but all the one's I've come across have problems that made them unsuitable for my needs.
Here is a list of hosts that support Java:
http://www.thejspbook.com/resources/category.jsp?id=1005&name=JSP+web+hosting
I can't comment on any from that list, however I use http://www.positive-internet.com they are a bit pricey but they have excellent support and are always happy to help with any Tomcat (the JSP/Servlet server they use)configuration issues or needs that you may have.

Problem with "Save as Adobe PDF format" in Excel and Word

Hi
When I use printing zone in Excel and make a «Save as Adobe PDF format» (menu File / Save as Adobe PDF), the first save is well done. But when I make it a second time, what's not in the printing zone is printing in the document.
I have also problem with the «Save as Adobe PDF format» in Word. The images superposition are not well print.
I'm using Windows 7 in french, Office 2010 french and Adobe Acrobat XI standard. All is in the latest version.
Thanks

The Save As PDF feature in Office2008 Call up a PDF Creator similar to the AdobePDF Print Driver. whch OX.6 can't use.
To create Pdf you have to use method used:
http://indesignsecrets.com/acrobats-adobe-pdf-printer-replaced-in-snow-leopard.php
Not before you attempt to use this method if Rossetta is not installed. pop in your Systems DVD and install Rosetta. Then follow directions to install the Adobe Quality PDF Automator Script which will show up in the Print Menu. Click on Print > then click PDF. Then Click on Adobe quality PDF. AS for setting up Job options and other details Supposedly your suppose to have access. But I have no idea.
First thing Rosetta should be installed out of the box. and Second Adobe should install this Script from their installer. So their should be no intervention from the user. it should just work. Early report when OSX.6 first came out almost no one was able to get this to work. and I see periodic reports that people still can't get it tork and they have to to resort to saving as .ps files then droping on distiller.
Good luck.

Export to Excel and Save as Static File

Hello all,
When I export to excel from SharePoint 2013, and save the file, the data remains dynamic in that if I update the list in SharePoint it will update the data in Excel. This is great and I use it in a few places, but I also need to capture a point in time and
save the exported Excel file as static data (i.e. Export to Excel, and Save as the Q3 Report). How can I save the file as static/remove the dynamic link so I just have the data at the time of export?
Thanks!

Hi Kelly,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to export to excel as a static file.
In SharePoint, when you export list to excel, it works as a one-way sync. It can sync data from SharePoint to Excel. If you don’t want to sync the data from SharePoint, you can copy the data from the exported excel file to a new excel, then save the new
excel file.

Edit .app file in excel and then open it in client tool?

Dear Gurus,
I am very new to HFM and would like to know what practice a HFM consultant will use in editing the metadata.
My boss recommend me to edit metadata( .app file) in excel and save it into a format that can be read and opened by client tool.
However, I find no way to achieve this.
How can i edit metadata in excel and then open it in HFM client tool?

Good morning,
I think the best way to do it it's working with macros. You can work with an Excel file and then, convert it to the .txt format by using macros. A .txt is more suitable to be later worked as .app.
However, you can also do it by using Copy/Paste.
1. Open the .app in a Note Pad, so you can work with .txt file.
2. Copy the .txt data in the Excel file.
3. Then, it's just working with Data > Text to Columns to format the file. Then, you can work in Excel.
Then, you will have to put the Excel file in a .txt, so you will have to follow the data files requirements. You still can do this manually, but you will have to pay attention to the format (FILE_FORMAT=11.1.2, !VERSION=11.1.3609, !CUSTOM_ORDER=Custom1;Custom2;Custom3;Custom4, !APPLICATION_SETTINGS, !CURRENCIES, etc., as it is the Admin Guide). It will also depend on the HFM version you're working with, specially when working with customs.
I received a good document about a couple of months ago that can be helpful, so if you send me an email address, I'll forward it.

WORD, EXCEL, and POWERPOINT now crashing when saving new file

I have Microsoft Office 2004 WORD, EXCEL, and POWERPOINT, which were working just fine for several days on 10.5.1. (all updates are current). Now, every time I try to save a new document, all 3 apps crash, with the following thing in common in the crash log:
0xb80ec881 gettimeofday_wrapper + 37593
This doesn't happen when opening an existing file, and saving changes to it. Note: A few days ago, I ran Disk Utility to do a permissions repair for another issue - could this have caused this issue?
Any ideas???
