XML PUBLISHER : excel file generated is of large size

Hi ,
scenario: Using XML publisher I am able to get the output in the Excel format but the file size is 28.2 MB
Issue : The file size is too big so unable to send email through XML bursting program.
Observation:
For the generated excel sheet when save as option is chosen then its save as type is Web Page (*.htm,*.html ) with the file name appearing in double quotes "sample.xls" , when the save as type was changed to excel and saved , the file size was found to be 5.7 MB .
Please advise on the following:-
xml publisher's generated output file size is 6 times bigger than the actual excel file size , is there a way to rectify this huge size output for EXCEL file.

SR

How can I convert an Excel file to XML file

The problem is I am given an Excel file and have been asked to convert it to an XML file using Java.Can any body highlight any clue regarding this? My thanks in advance.

Gotta use your own imagination.
I'd have a root tag <excel-spreadsheet>. Under that I'd have a <worksheet> tag for each worksheet. Under that I'd have a <row> tag for each row. Each <row> tag would have <column> tags, with "name" attribute, and the spreadsheet entry as the value.
The problem is that you can't really map everything that will go into a spreadsheet into this stream (e.g., graphs, stray cells, etc.) It maps well to tables, but that's it.

How to create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Comm Ch

How do I create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Communication Channel? I have my mapping done and I am outputting the file as a comma delimited csv file. However, the target can only process an Excel file (.xls). How can I generate an Excel in XI?
I saw this blog, but I don't know how to create a XSLT transformation.
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/10/xi-generating-excel-files-without-the-java-nor-the-conversion-agent-not-possible
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Here are the steps I took to create an XSLT transformation in XI 3.0:
1. I created my source and target XSDs using XMLSpy.
2. I created the XSLT mapping from source to target in XMLSpy (referencing the souce XSD schema).
3. I created another XSLT mapping to format the target into Excel XML.
4. Import the source and target XSDs in the IR's External Definitions
5. Zip each XSLT mapping (.xls) and import it into the IR's Imported Archives
6. Reference the XSL mappings in the Interface Mapping

Comparing an excel file to and xml file and appending data to the xml file

I have an xml file (mapsource) and an excel file. One of the columns in the excel file matches up with a node in the xml file. I want to be able to loop through both files and add a new node to the xml file where the one of the columns in the excel file matches a node in the xml file.
I can create a query object out of the excel dosument using the cfspreadsheet tag.
I'm able to use xmlparse to create a xml document object from the xml file.
What I would like to do is add col_3 from the excel spreadsheet as a new node when col_2 is equal to gpx.wpt.name.xmltext of the xml object.
Any help or direction would be very helpful!

PeopleCode to "Save As" - convert an excel file to XML file

All,
Is there any way to convert an excel file to XML file via PeopleCode? I can manually "Save As" an excel file to be an XML file, but is there anyway of doing it via PeopleCode? I guess it would be a little possible via VBScript, but since by App server resides on a Unix box, that would not work.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Mani

The attached zip file contains several VI's to read and write directly to Excel using ActiveX. There are several example VI showing how to use everything. This set is saved in LabVIEW 6.0.2.
I suggest you unzip these to your user.lib directory so you'll be able to easily access them from the functions palette.
I have not actually used these, but others that have say they have worked well for them.
Good Luck

Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.

XML to Excel file using dom4j

hi!
i'm new with dom4j and i don't have any idea on how to do the following task:
i have an xml document which i have to save as an excel file using dom4j. my problem is i also have to insert records in the middle of the file. is it possible?
sample layout:
Worksheet Header (also have to plot a value)
Column Header (also have to plot a value)
-- need to insert records here --
Sub-total row
Total row
i would appreciate any help from you guys...
thanks in advance...

Hi there!
First I haven't seen any application that uses dom4j to write excel's file, but I can recommend you to use Apache's POI to write and read from any excel's file, actually I'm working rigth now with it, and works fine with Office 2003.
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hssf/
For the XML you can use what ever you feel confortable with, dom4j, jdom, etc. I really like jdom thougth

How to convert excel file into xml file

Friends
Will you please help me out becz i am daily getting excel file from SAP which i have to translate into the xml file.
Waiting for ur reply.
Hitesh

Depends on how your excel document looks like and what you wish to accomplish.
First, save the excel file as a tab or comma separated file.
Create a program that reads the lines of the file, and just print the cell content into the right xml tags.
E.g.
Street Name
Main st 3 Wild Bill
Main st 2 Crazy Bill
could be translated into an xml:
<Adress>
<Street>Main st 3</Street>
<Name>Wild Bill</Name>
</Adress>
<Adress>
<Street>Main st 2</Street>
<Name>Crazy Bill</Name>
</Adress>
or:
<header>
<col>Street</col>
<col>Name</col>
</header>
<row>
<col>Main st 3</col>
<col>Wild Bill</col>
</row>
<row>
<col>Main st 2</col>
<col>Crazy Bill</col>
</row>
etc
E.g. using the code
String[] lineColumns=...
while(lineColumns!=null){
println("<row>");
for(int i=0; i<lineColumns.length; i++){
println("<col>"+lineColumns[i]+"</col>");
println("</row>");

Translation of excel file to an xml file

hello
does any one know how do I translate an Excel File to enter to the XI as XML file?
(XI 3.0 version, SP21)
Thanks
Kfir

Module acts as a special function that is used by an Adapter to provide the additional functionality to the Adapter.
By using File Adapter we can only read .xml files and .txt files (using File Content Conversion).
If we want to read an excel sheet, it is not possible by using the normal File Adapter.
For this purpose we are developing a module & Deploying it into the sap j2ee server and we will specify the module name in module tab of Communication channel.
Then this module will read excel sheet and convert that into an xml format which XI can understand.
Thanks.
