Excel file deletes from Shared location

While accessing an excel file from a shared location, if the file hangs during opening or saving and if I go to Task Manager and end the EXCEL process, the file gets permanently deleted from its location.
I have faced this issue multiple times. What should I do to avoid this?

Hi,
I have a question and I really appreciate your help.
My Question is
I would like to copy a file/folder from one location to another.
(For ex: From my Hard disk to a Network folder).
I want to do this from Oracle Forms 5.0 and my operating system is Windows 2000/NT Workstation.
At present my users are doing this by using drag and drop windows functionality,
But now they want to do this by using a GUI screen.

I cannot Open EXCEL files transferred from my old HP laptop.

I am unable to open EXCEL files transferred from my HP LapTop. How to resolve?

The forum for MBP:

As for Excel, checked microsoft office community?
Maybe if you try export first....?
Vista has its own ownership permission flags. Maybe if you modify the file or a copy first, and then copy.

You may first want to look into Safari's "Installed Plugins" section within the browser. This is (usually) found under the Safari Help header in the top of a browser. I say usually, because I don't use Safari often and mine is an older version. They handle applications and plugins like most others, to a point.
I see in Safari Installed Plugins that mine would use
application/pdf
Acrobat Portable Document Format
Acrobat Reader & reader plugin v9.5.5 for web browsers
(in Safari 5.x, where I looked into this)
While I use FireFox, SeaMonkey (Mozilla) and others, where I can choose in preferences the helper applications to open from the browser, Safari has different methods; so if you can change this in the preferences or settings of Safari in a later version I am not certain.
You could see what the defaults are by using Safari help menu to open the Installed plugins, and maybe find out what happend to Adobe reader plugin. Could be it was 'sandboxed' in a later OS X and needs to be installed differently to be accepted as safe.
It is easier to set how a file type is handled once it is inside the computer and not held in the browser; by file type in general or specific to each single document. I do both, and seldom let an a browser do these things due to security considerations. I download and open them, only then if I feel they are safe.
Sorry to not have a specific answer for that anomaly.
Good luck & happy computing!

Help required in reading a file from Shared location on Network

Hi,
I need help in reading a file from a shared location. Can you kindly tell me the pattern for inputting the shared location path. I am using fileUtilService>Exists
"\\Shiva\test\shared\eForms\temp.xlsx" is the actual location of the file. How should i input the location in the INPUT variable of EXISTS.

readResource content operation will fetch documents from Adobe Repository. Unless you checkin the required file into repository, the above error will remain.
From a shared folder, you should able to read the files using readDocument (using FileUtils) without any issues. Perhaps, the access rights prevent the execution.
If you are running JBoss as a windows service (turnkey will create a windows service for the JBoss instance), try the following:
Run -> services.msc -> Right click on JBoss service for Adobe LiveCycle -> Properties
Check the value given under logon tab. The User Account mentioned there should have appropriate access to the shared folder you are attempting read.

Excel files deleted when not found

I am using the Report Generation toolkit for Microsoft Office. I have a vi that opens a template, renmaes it, saves it, and writes to an Excel file. The file is then saved again before the vi exits.
The problem is if the Excel file is accidently closed, then the vi closes and tries to save the excel file, it deletes the file that was saved. This seems to happen in the NI_Excel.lvclassave Report to File.vi, and comes up with error -2147417848 The first three case structures are false, which leads to the close and delete file subvis. I thought I could get remove the delete file vi, but I can not rename the subvi (...save report to file) to do this. This problem is causing me to lose product data.
How can I either make a copy of the sub vi, or prevent the subvi from deleteing the file if the file is not open?
metzler CLAD

Hi metzler,
According to this KnowledgeBase Article: Close Microsoft Excel While Running Report Generation Toolkit it is recommended programming practice to catch and handle the resulting error if the user attempts to quit Microsoft Excel mid-execution. In no way will NI recommend editing its shipping VIs.
I hope this helps!

Problem opening excel files exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18

I can't open excel files (xls) exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18 when I enable macros. The application (Excel) hangs up.
Someone have any idea about this?
Thanks,
Diego

Hi Meifang
I did some more research and found a document on MetaLink 250820.1 that talks about Discoverer not being able to call Excel if Discoverer is running via an IP address instead of a qualified domain name.
The article talks about making Discoverer a trusted site in the Internet Options of IE. Here's the relevant info from the posting:
Workaround for MS IE (if necessary):
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options Security where you will see the Trusted Sites icon (green icon with a check mark)
3. Click the Sites button
4. Add the following: http://IP:port/
(where IP, port are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
5. Click the OK button
6. Click the OK button again
On my own PC, I was having a similar problem and I was unable to get Excel to launch. In the end I did this:
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options | Security where you will see the Local Intranet icon (computer icon against a globe)
3. Click the Local Intranet button
4. Click the Sites button
5. Click the Advanced button
6. Add the following: http://IP/ or http://website
(where IP or website are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
7. Click the Add button
8. Click the OK button
9. Click the OK button again
10. Click the OK button a third time
With this done, I made sure that my Explorer settings were correct by doing the following to ensure that a couple of settings for the .xls & .html file types are unchecked:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Navigate to: Tools | Folder Options | File Types tab
3. Highlight the Extension XLS (or HTML)
4. Click the Advanced button
5. At the botton of the screen are three settings that use checkboxes. If either of the following two are checked, un-check them:
Confirm Open after Download and Browse in same window
6. Click the OK button
7. Click the Apply button
8. Re-boot the PC
After I did this I was successfully able to get Excel to open from within Discoverer.
Best wishes
Michael

Refresh data in SWF based on excel file saved from SAP BW workbook

Hi, is there a way to get data refresh in SWF dashboard from excel file as a data source. SAP BW workbook report will be saved as an excel file daily and placed in somewhere. I would like to create a dashboard which can connect to the excel data source and refresh on load.
Appreciate your advice and help. Thank you.
I am using Xcelsius 2008 and SAP BI 7.0

Thank you.
If I understand correctly from your advice, that is I should create QaaWs to pull data from SAP BI, which will return data in tabular format. Map the data in the cell range of a hidden tab, re-arrange and format the data into the row?
Another concern: I need to display data for 4 quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3,Q4) in the dashboard, but QAAWS will only pulls data when the data is available in the database.
   Eg. Only data for 3 quarters are found in the database, QAAWS will return data for Q1, Q2,Q4.
         This will mess up the position fixed in the xcelsius. Do you have any suggestion on this?
   Sorry to bother u for the simple questions.
   Thank you.

How to upload all excel files data from one folder into internal table.

Dear All,
I have one requirement, It is like I want to upload the frontend file data into my internal table, But here my scenario is;
If I have one folder ( Called : Temp) in my frontend system, in this folder ( Called : Temp) I have 100 excel files. In each excel file I have some 1000u2019s of entries. All these data of every file I want to take into my internal table.
If I have one file I can go for, CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog and then upload method to upload. But I want to take all these excel files from that folder at a time, is there any class or any thing is there..? plz help..
Thanks...

Hi satishsuri ,
You will have to use 3 methods together :
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse "Browse the Directory
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_list_files "Get all the files from the directory
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload "Upload each file in a loop
Example:
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_data,
         line TYPE string,
      END OF ty_data.
DATA: str_file TYPE string,
      str_dir TYPE string,
      it_file_table TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF file_info,
      wa_file_table TYPE file_info,
      v_count TYPE i,
      it_data TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF ty_data,
      wa_data TYPE ty_data.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_browse
CHANGING
    selected_folder = str_dir.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>directory_list_files
EXPORTING
    directory = str_dir
CHANGING
    file_table = it_file_table
    count      = v_count.
LOOP AT it_file_table INTO wa_file_table.
CONCATENATE str_dir wa_file_table-filename INTO str_file SEPARATED BY '\'.
CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload
    EXPORTING
      filename = str_file
      filetype = 'ASC'
    CHANGING
      data_tab = it_data.
LOOP AT it_data INTO wa_data.
    WRITE : / wa_data-line.

File Download from Server location - JSP

Hi SDN,
I have a txt file in a folder created in server location under the path /usr/sap/EPD/JC00/j2ee/cluster/server0. On click of the link correspondin to the file name in JSP, i have to open the file with the pop up to save, open or cancel. I have to achieve this in the JSP. I am currently
<td> <a href="/usr/sap/EPD/JC00/j2ee/cluster/server0/XXX/yyy.txt"> <%=fileName%></a ></td>
I am not able to achieve the intended functionality. How to achieve it. Expecting your valuable replies
Thanks & Regards,
p188071

hi,
I am using the following snippet
String filePath ="/usr/sap/EPD/JC00/j2ee/cluster/server0/xxx/yyy.txt"; // path of your excel file
     HttpServletResponse resp = componentRequest.getServletResponse(true);
     resp.setContentType("text/html; charset=UTF-8");
       // set the exact content type
     resp.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\""+ filePath + "\"");
It is creating downloading a txt file with the name usr_sap_EPD_xxx_yyy.txt without actual contents inside the file. It is just generating a file without writing the contents into that file.
What should I do?

Read multi-tabbed excel file attachments from Sender Mail Adapter.

There is a need to read excel attachments from incoming email to a
mailbox. We know we can use Sender Mail adapter to easily read .xml, .txt
or .csv attachments.
For excel attachments we know from SDN that you have to write
adapter modules to handle excel. However the excel file we need to read has
multiple worksheets(tabs) and data may be contained in any of them.
Is it possible to use SAP XI Mailsender adapter to read such a file as an attachment? What kind of module development would we need for this? I am not much of a Java programmer so examples or links to other documentation would help.
Thanks,
Rudra

Rudra,
Use Java Mapping. There is a free java api available called JExcelAPI to achieve this.
Shabarish's blog describes about this. This might be helpful to you
