Excel date formula????

Hi,
I am a complete novice at Excel and need help with converting a date with an English layout (30/12/2013) to an American layout with 00.00.00 next to it. So i want to create 12/30/2013 00.00.00. How can i do this using a formula and apply to a column of dates?
Thanks.

I suspect there is necessary information you have not provided.
But if the dates are "real" Excel dates, and you want to do this with a formula, then merely
=TEXT(A1,"mm/dd/yyyy ""00.00.00""")
If the dates are text strings, or a mix of text strings and real dates, or if you want the 00.00.00 at the end to be more than just a text string, or if you want the date to be something you can operate on, then the solution will be more complex. But
I will wait to provide that, pending clarification from you.
If they are a mix, then you can first select the column; use the data text-to-columns wizard, and when you get to step3, select date and DMY format. That should convert them all to "real dates" and allow you to apply the above formula.
To tell if the date is a text string, or a real date, test it to see if it is a number (e.g. =isnumeric(a1)). Excel stores dates as serial numbers with 1 = 1 Jan 1900.
If you want the 0's at the end to represent something (e.g. hrs/mins/seconds), rather than just being a text string, let us know.

Convert an integer value that was created with the Excel DATEVALUE formula to a valid date?

Hello everyone,
How can I convert an integer value that was created with the Excel DATEVALUE formula to a valid date in SSIS?
Is this even possible?
For example:
=DATEVALUE("8/22/2008") will format the cell to display 39682.
Reading the column as a string to get the int value (39682) - how can I turn this into a valid date using SSIS and then importing the real date to sql server?
Thank you!

You can use Script component for this and convert your integer values to Date. An example here is following:
CultureInfo provider = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
string dateString = "08082010";
string format = "MMddyyyy";
DateTime result = DateTime.ParseExact(dateString, format, provider);

Reading Excel data through java servlets

I am doing a project in jsp and servlet. During the project i have to read some excel data from the excel sheet and store them to DB2 database. While reading from the data from the excel sheet a problem occurred. I have used the poi package to read the data from the excel sheet and the code is correct and it reads the excel sheet. Now i just displayed the number of rows and cells in the excel sheet and while displaying the value of the every cell, the servlet displays only the address of each cell instead of displaying the value. Here i am attaching the code that i have used and the output of the servlet.
One more thing that i have noticed here is i just wrote a simple java program to read the excel data using the same steps that used earlier in the servlet. In this case the program displays the actual value of the excel cell.
Could you please help me to solve the problem.

For blank cells we return an empty string.
For formulaCells that are not string Formulas, we return empty String

Issue with Excel data-chains via SharePoint

I'm having issues with a coulpe of Excel (2010) data-chains through SharePoint at my work. When i set up a chain it shows for instance [Sheet2.xlsx] and fetches data just fine. But when I close and re-open the sheets, the chain code is changed to the
entire http-adress, such as "http://company.com/controlling/[Sheet2.xlsx], and gives a VALUE-error instead of fetching the data.
Is my problem connected to Excel or Sharepoint? And what can i do to make the chains work?
Thanks in advance, and please excuse if some of the mentioned terms are inaccurate. I use Excel in my native language (danish), but the Danish community in here is not very large :)

Hi,
Are you using some formula(Such as Vlookup) to link the Excel date which shored in the SharePoint?
If it is, we may try to use the full URL in the formula. Here are some samples, we may refer to:

Excel Workbook with Excel Data Model stored on SharePoint - daily refresh

I'm not sure if this is exactly the right forum but I'm hoping that someone here can either answer or point me in the right direction.
I have an Excel Workbook with an Excel Data Model.
The Excel Data Model uses SQL to contact our data warehouse and pull through data into tables.
We are storing the Workbook on a SharePoint site and viewing it using Excel Services.
The data in our data warehouse is updated daily and so I would like to refresh the workbook daily and remove the option to refresh the data in the browser.
Is this possible with a workbook that has an Excel Data Model (I've seen lots of posts that relate to workbooks with connections to tabular models).
Thanks
Paul

Refresh Excel Data in OfficeControl

Hey,
I have seen a few posts about loading SAP data from an internal table and downloading to Excel. But is there a way to refresh the Excel data without downloading?
Scenario: User uploads Excel sheet into WD4A app. A button is pushed on the Web Dynpro application and the data is refreshed in the Excel sheet.
Thanks,
Kenneth

The OLE2 functions in ABAP (which would allow this tight integration) seem to use the GUI to serve the OLE2 requests -
[ABAP/4 OLE Automation Controller|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/bcfesde6/bcfesde6.pdf]
so I don't think you could use these.
However, the OfficeControl UI element should allow you some sort of control. Check the doco there - looks like you could do some pretty interesting things if you had a macro in your spreadsheet to allow you to do them!
Although from your question you seem more to want to be able to parse an Excel spreadsheet from a download and then regenerate it with some fields changed - probably more a question to throw open to the ABAP forum

Refresh Excel data/charts reports in sharepoint

Hi all,
I created an Excel report with some Pivot Charts, starting from a
Sharepoint list data.
The Excel is saved in a document library of the site.
The aim is to keep Excel data/charts updated with the values of the corresponding
list.
When I open the Excel with Excel Online and click on "Data" - "Refresh all", I see no updates.
Anyway, if I export the Excel on my pc and click on refresh data, I can see the updates.
Any solutions? Thanks in advance

You can't refresh the SharePoint List data in Excel this way. I thought you are using SharePoint server then you need to configure power pivot for your form after that you can get the Odata feed from the SharePoint list using the Odata source you can refresh
the data in excel online.

Upload Excel data to Sharepoint list VIA infopath form

Hi,
I'll try to explain the process of what I want to do first.
1. In Excel
I have an exceldocument (XLS, XLSX or XLSM) with 4 named columns and a named worksheet saved locally on my computer.
I want to upload this data into preferably a custom list in sharepoint but it needs to run via a infopath template first.
2. In Infopath
The Infopath template will prompt the user to specify values in 2 additional fields.
After giving input to these fields user may browse for the locally stored excel document and upload the document.
In the same infopath template a dynamic array should be visible containing 6 columns (4 from excel + 2 from headerlevel of template) and the amount of rows based on the number of rows from excelsheet.
At the end of template a submit button is found for uploading the entire array into sharepoint custom list.
Is this possible to do at all?
NOTE! End user should not have to save the excelsheet as XML file nor do a XML mapping.
Infopath should, perhaps with help of VBA read excelsheet and transfer data to correct destination in sharepoint on it self.
Looking forward to your reply

Hi Jonas,
You can attach your Excel doucment into InfoPath form and send InfoPath form to a custom web service. Then you can parse the Excel data and combine the Excel data and additional fields into SharePoint list in the customized web service.
For more information, you can have a look at the thread:

Excel data read from users and upload in to Oracle DB using custom webpart

Hi Team,
I need to get the excel date from user using file upload control and read the data from the excel using custom webpart and validate the each rows whether having the values or not and need to upload the data to the oracle database.
Can you please let me know the best approach to read the data from excel using sharepoint custom webpart.
Thanks,
Mylsamy

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to read excel data from the uploaded file and insert the data into Oracle Database.
The following way for your reference:
1.Create a Visual Web Part using Visual Studio.
2. Add an asp.net upload control into the .ascx file.
<div>
<asp:FileUpload ID="fileupload" runat="server" />
<asp:Button ID="btnUpload" runat="server" onclick="btnUpload_Click" Text="Upload" />
</div>
3. Add some logic methods into .ascx.cs file.
protected void btnUpload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
//read data and insert the data into Oracle database.
4.We can create a web service for adding data to Oracle database, then consume this web service in the visual web part.

having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

Export to PDF, Excel, Excel (Data Only) formatting issues

Hi Community
I have a report that consists of 5 subreports. Out of the 5 subreports, 3 of them have a similar format whereas the other 2 are different.
Iu2019m currently facing an issue whereby the exports to excel works fine, but excel (data only) has some alignment issues(i.e. the data appears below the correct columns). However, when the report is tweaked to make export to excel (data only) appear correctly, the export to excel had its data shifted out of alignment. There is no impact to pdf exporting at the moment.
Are there any people who are facing similar issues? Is there any resolution or workaround? I appreciate any help. Thanks.
FYI, the version of crystal reports is Crystal reports is Crystal reports 2008 and we are using the crystal report viewer interface to export into excel and pdf formats. The excel version is 2007.
Regards

DW, i've also run into issues with multiple sub reports. I resolved it by putting each sub report into it's own section, and then suppressing the sub report (Note, if ur trying to export subreport data to excel, I don't think its going to work. You'd need to create shared variables and then bring those sub report shared variables into your main report).
Once you bring your shared variables into the main report, suppress your sub reports, and then export to excel, you're still left with a dataset that has missing rows. This is ok. You can solve it easily within the excel file itself by sorting the data on a unique ID like Account #. This removes the extra rows.
Not the most elegant solution, but it works.

Scheduled Report: Export to Excel (Data Only) Fails

I have an issue with a new installation of Crystal Reports Server 2008. When I try to schedule a report for extract to Excel (Data Only) the report fails with the following error:
Error in File ~tmp202064233ce6330.rpt: Operation not yet implemented.
We have scheduled the report using Word, PDF, text and they all work however the Excel (Data Only) format fails everytime with this error.
I have no problem opening the report in Crystal Reports 2008 and Exporting to Excel Data Only format manually.
Thanks in advance!

Import excel data from OWB10.2

I wanted to import excel data into OWB 10gr2. So i have followed the steps in the attached link. But i cannot perform the operations from step 6 in OWB 10rR2.
In OWB10.2 how could i create a new database link. Inorder to create a new module below ODBC i have to give the location. I cannot create the location.
Step 6: Create an ODBC Source Module and a Database Link
Use the following steps to create an ODBC source module and database link:
1. From the Warehouse Builder console, create an ODBC source module. On the
navigation tree, ODBC modules are listed under the Others node of the Databases
node.
2. On the Connection Information page, click New Database Link to create a new
database link that reads data using the data source created. Figure 3–3 shows the
entries used on the New Database Link dialog.
Note: Ensure that the initialization parameter GLOBAL_NAMES is set
to FALSE in the database's initialization parameter file. FALSE is the
default setting for this parameter.
Step 6: Create an ODBC Source Module and a Database Link
3-4 Oracle Warehouse Builder Case Book
Figure 3–3 New Database Link Dialog
Notice that the Oracle Service Name field uses the Oracle system identifier
specified for the agent.
3. Ensure that the Use for Heterogeneous Services option is selected.
Because you are not accessing an Oracle database, you can enter any value for
username and password.
4. Create and test this database link. Close the New Database Link dialog.
5. Leave the Schema name <unspecified>. Click the Change Schema button and
select <unspecified>. The Connection Information page now looks as shown in
Figure 3–4.
Step 8: Create a Mapping to Load Data Into the Target Table
How Do I Load Data Stored in a Microsoft Excel File? 3-5
Figure 3–4 Connection Information Page
6. Create a new deployment location for the module or specify an existing location.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/pdf/Cases/case3.pdf
But i cannot create in OWB10.2.
Can any body suggest me the process.

Gillies,
I am not able to create a new location for ODBC in connection explorer.
Which option should i consider. Should i consider database link or host:port:service or sql*net connection. suppose If i take database link option what is the description i have to enter in database link box. Should i create a database link manually from sql*plus.
