Excel linux

Hi, I have a question in regard of a set up data source using excel in RHEL 5 for OBIEE 11G. Which odbc driver to use and setting/configuration in RHEL? Thx

Now, seriously you would not be asking about strategies to transfer information from Excel to Oracle! These are kind of job you usually get paid for :) - Just joking of course.
Please state your requirement correctly, there could be other ways to get the job done without trying to write a parser for Excel on Linux.

  • I love Arch! It's Great, Super, Excellent!

    I installed Arch on my Thinkpad R60 for 6 months. Everything works well -- wireless card, ThinkKeys, KDE, Applications, Printers, pacman......
    Actually, ArchWiki helps me a lot. It's the most excellent linux configuration document I've ever seen. And I should  also say Thanks to every package maintainer......
    But I learned a lot of great linux distributions died because of many kinds of reasons. I hope Arch will keep going and bring us new suprising and best linux using experience.

  • Creative ZEN and Linux works well with au

    Thanks for an excellent device!
    with the latest .20.x firmware the Creative ZEN works flawlessly with AmaroK under openSUSE 0.3. (Wich is an excellent linux distro)
    If someone experience problems transfering music, check that you have the latest libmtp installed. This can be done with Yast. Make sure that the Packman sources are installed. (See the opensuse.org wiki for information on how to add sources.)
    Best regards

    shame I can't figure out how to do this on ubuntu gusty! i've had to resort to windows.. bah!

  • Japanese TV Tuner USB - Linux compatibility

    Hello everyone,
    I'm looking for a TV Tuner USB with an excellent linux support(of course archlinux), compatible with the japanese televion.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Well, this seems to run on Linux (according to the customer reviews), even though the system requirements says Win only. Maybe other products from Geniatech also do this, when not stated?

  • Pi$$ed off at that other system -- the G cr@p

    :twisted: I've had Arch on my ibm t-23 for a couple of weeks now. Excellent linux system. I have that other G thing on my desktop, and I'm about as fed up as I can get! Everytime I try to up grade I have to download or change something. The forums look like you need a engineering degree to understand them. Ask for help and you get flamed!
    Sick of spending all my time trying to keep the thing running right.
    Arch on the other hand is easy to use and maintain, the forums are friendly, and I had no trouble using pacman to get what I need.
    One quick question -- I would like to install Arch on my desktop, but I have ATI Radeon for a video card. Should I change it for a Nivdia(Sp?) card?? Is there a way to get ATI drivers for Arch? Seen a lot of Archers complaining about ATI. Could use some feedback -- Thanks, Larry

    lmellen wrote:Will hwd detect the ATI 9200 card and list the correct drivers?
    No idea, but there is no reason to run hwd since you already know what kind of card it is, just use the generic radeon driver that is part of xorg.
    lmellen wrote:I assume that hwd will also load the correct modules in the Xorg conf. file?
    Hwd does not load anything it only shows you what hardware you have and what modules you would need to load.
    lmellen wrote:If not and I need to download with pacman, will pacman load them into the right files?
    Pacman is part of the default installation of arch.  If you are using arch it is installed.  Pacman will NOT load the modules for you YOU must do that yourself.
    Arch is intended for advanced users who don't want any extras doing things for them.  At most basic configuration files will be installed with any given application other than that you have to set everything up yourself for your system.
    Once you get get xorg installed (pacman -S xorg) run xorgconfig as root to generate a configuration file.  When you get to the video driver section select the generic radeon option (#6 I think...).  For your monitor unless you see something that says LCD pick generic vesa.

  • GUI building for a simple application

    Hi;
    I' ld like to seek for opinion, if I'll need to build a small application with GUI support, whatis the recommendation?
    I want to consider the factors as below:
    - fast
    - time saving
    - easy handling
    thanks.

    I want to consider the factors as below:
    - fast
    - time saving
    - easy handlingyour factors are oo small and too general. Almost all major programming languages (using IDE) provides those factors.
    you need to dig a little deeper and ask question regarding your application requirement..like:
    - what platform would your application supports?
    - would you be maintaing the application (upgrade, etc) or it's a write once thing
    - Does you application interact with other application (like MS Excel, Linux OS)
    - etc..
    Once you have understood your requirement, you can then look at the technology available to determine what best work for your application (you will weigh in tradeoff)

  • Download alv report in excel format in Linux

    Hi All,
    I am working on SAP GUI for Java in Linux PC. I have installed
    Open Office.
    After executing an alv report there is no spreadsheet option
    to download the report in excel format .
    Also, when doing Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet ,
    the report is not downloaded in proper format.
    So, how to download the alv reports in excel format ?

    Hi Vinod ,
    Save as Local File -> Spreadsheet
    It will ask for Directory and file name with .xls format . Give proper name e.g. test.xls and save, and after saving file right click on the file and click on Open with "OpenOffice.org calc".
    It will definetly work.

  • Connecting Excel 2010 64 bit on Windows 7 64 bit to Oracle 11gR2 on Linux

    Using:
    Excel 2010 64 bit
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Oracle instant client 11.2.0.1 64 bit
    connecting to Oracle 11gR2 64 bit on Linux 5.8 64 bit
    I have created a User DSN in Windows called "NITRO Oracle 11gR2 DB" using the Oracle 64 bit instant client driver 11.2.0.1. Configured as so
    http://i.imgur.com/2a3MZ.png
    Connection test is successful.
    In Excel 2010, I go to Data ribbon, From Data Connection Wizard
    http://i.imgur.com/han3u.png
    I then choose Other/Advanced, and then Oracle Provider for OLE DB.
    http://i.imgur.com/w3P1c.png
    I click next and then put in the data source, user name and password and click test, and it fails with Micosoft Data Link Error. http://i.imgur.com/zuv41.png
    Do you know what I'm doing wrong?

    12154 means the client couldn't resolve what you filled in for Data Source. What did you fill in for Data Source when configuring the OLEDB connection? It looks like "nitro" should be the correct thing to fill in, based on your statement that the ODBC DSN you configured works with it.

    Hi,
    can you describe what is happening when you run the ODI procedure described below:
    - Does the procedure fail with an error, if yes, which error(full details)?
    - Does the procedure pass but no xslx file is been created?
    - Does the procedure pass and an xslx file is been created, but Excel can't read it? If yes, what is the structure of the xslx file when read in an editor?
    What I can see from your code below is that you have choosen -FILE_FORMAT=VARIABLE, but the XSLX format is supposed to be XML.

  • Excel import on Oracle Linux - How to create an ODBC Connection

    Hi,
    We have Oracle BI EE on Oracle Linux. We need to create an ODBC DNS and import tables to Admin tool.
    How would you create a ODBC connection inside Linux to Microsoft excel file using unixodbc. What drivers we need.
    Please let us know.
    Thanks!
    Nilaksha.

    See this post here: Re: [NQODBC][SQL_STATE: HY000][nQSError: 100[nQSError: 43093][nQSError: 16023]
    You need to find an Excel ODBC driver for Linux. The ones that come with OBIEE won't read Excel as far as I know.
    For info on creating an ODBC connection for OBIEE on Linux check the manual or search this forum. You don't need unixodbc for it.

  • ODI reading Excel via ODBC on Linux

    I've got ODI loading data from Excel via ODBC with everything running on Windows, and it runs fine!
    But will this work when I run ODI on a Linux platform? Will I have to buy some kind of ODBC driver for Excel under Linux? Has anyone done this before?
    Any help gratefully received!
    Thanks
    A

    There exists a native JDBC driver for excel, it is a sourcefourge project. This allows you to read excel data irrespective of platform through JDBC rather than having to use the JDBC/ODBC bridge.

  • Odi 10g excel jdbc to oracle on linux server

    Hi everyone,
    I want to read excel file to insert Oracle DB.I know On windows system I should ODBC data server using Microsoft exel driver.But On linux server How can I do that?
    I have read and downloaded this document.
    http://odiexperts.com/odi_jdbc_excel/
    and this one
    ODI reading Excel via ODBC on Linux
    Bu Maybe it can be problem that copy JDBC excel jar file to agent file in linux server odi.(in odiexpert.com.it is written so)
    İs there any solution read excel file on linux server?
    Can anyone help me?
    Regards

    There is no other way as this is a os specific issue. Better you go for JDBC drivers processing excel file like Dev has developed or some other vendors are selling it.
    Another option could be create one agent in the windows system where you are getting excel files and process them using that agent.
