Export as Tab Separated Text (TTX)
I am using CR XI R2 to create the reports. The reports are then run through Oracle's IBPM Process Monitor which uses CR Runtime Engine 9. The old Oracle's IBPM Process Monitor also uses the same runtime engine, but it offered option to export the reports to TTX. The new one doesn't. Are we missing a DLL?
Thanks.
Mai
TTX is not installed by default. Go to Add/Remove programs and select Crystal Report XI R2 and Modify and use the Custom Install option. Expand the database option and check on TTX. If it's not there you'll have to use another datasource like XML etc.
Thank you

Convert tab separated text to non-trivial xml. (pwsafe -- KeePassx)
I'd like to take the output of `pwsafe --exportdb > database.txt` and convert it to a KeePassX XML friendly format (feature request in pwsafe).
I found flat file converter but the syntax is beyond me with this example. Solutions are welcomed.
More details
Here is the pwsafe --> KeePassX XML translations. The pwsafe export is simply a txt file with 6 fields (the first field can be ignored):
uuid= doesn't translate
group= group>title
name= entry>title
login= entry>username
passwd= entry>password
notes= entry>comment
Example txt file for conversion (exported from pwsafe):
# passwordsafe version 2.0 database"
uuid group name login passwd notes
"123d9-daf-df-3423423" "retail" "amazon" "myamazonuser" "sjfJ849" "superfluous comment"
"4599d934-dsfs-324" "retail" "netflix" "netflixuser" "dj3W$#" ""
"4kdfkd-434-jj" "email" "gmail" "mygmail" "dfkpass" ""
Example xml in keepassx xml:
<!DOCTYPE KEEPASSX_DATABASE>
<database>
<group>
<title>Internet</title>
<entry>
<title>github</title>
<username>githubusername</username>
<password>githubpassword</password>
<comment>optional comment</comment>
</entry>
</group>
<group>
<title>retail</title>
<entry>
<title>amazon</title>
<username>username</username>
<password>myamazonpw</password>
</entry>
</group>
<group>
<title>retail</title>
<entry>
<title>netflix</title>
<username>username</username>
<password>mynfxpw</password>
</entry>
</group>
</database>
Last edited by graysky (2015-06-14 18:27:17)It seems that ffe does not work quite well with tab/space separated list (at least I was not able to get it working). However you can use sed to replace tabs with commas:
sed -e "s/\t/,/g" input.txt | ffe -c pwsafe.rc -s example.txt -l 2>/dev/null
and this is pwsafe.rc
structure pwsafe {
type separated , *
output group
quoted
header first
record line {
field uuid * * noprint
field title
field title * * entry
field username * * entry
field passwordd * * entry
field comment * * entry
output noprint {
data ""
no-data-print no
output entry {
data " <%n>%t</%n>\n"
no-data-print no
output group {
file_header "<!DOCTYPE KEEPASSX_DATABASE>\n <database>\n"
record_header " <group>\n"
data " <%n>%t</%n>\n <entry>\n"
record_trailer " <entry>\n </group>\n"
file_trailer "</database>\n"
no-data-print no
If you are not bound to ffe, maybe it is easier to use a python script which is simpler to modify and it is more flexible. Something like the following should work:
#!/usr/bin/python
import sys
from xml.dom import minidom
class Converter(object):
def __init__(self, filename):
self.url = filename
def convert(self):
inp_f = open(self.url, 'r')
data = inp_f.readlines()
inp_f.close()
# xml document model
doc = minidom.Document()
root = doc.createElement('database')
doc.appendChild(root)
for line in data:
if '"' not in line:
continue
fields = line.split('\t')
if len(fields) < 6:
continue
# uuid = fields[0].strip('"') # unused
group = fields[1].strip('" ')
name = fields[2].strip('" ')
login = fields[3].strip('" ')
passwd = fields[4].strip('" ')
notes = fields[5].strip('" \n')
group_node = doc.createElement('group')
root.appendChild(group_node)
# <group>
group_title_node = doc.createElement('title')
group_node.appendChild(group_title_node)
group_title_node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(group))
# one <entry> per <group>
entry_node = doc.createElement('entry')
group_node.appendChild(entry_node)
# <entry> -> <title>
entry_title_node = doc.createElement('title')
entry_title_node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(name))
entry_node.appendChild(entry_title_node)
# <entry> -> <username>
entry_uname_node = doc.createElement('username')
entry_uname_node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(login))
entry_node.appendChild(entry_uname_node)
# <entry> -> <password>
entry_passwd_node = doc.createElement('password')
entry_passwd_node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(passwd))
entry_node.appendChild(entry_passwd_node)
# <entry> -> <comments>
entry_comment_node = doc.createElement('comment')
entry_comment_node.appendChild(doc.createTextNode(notes))
entry_node.appendChild(entry_comment_node)
print('<!DOCTYPE KEEPASSX_DATABASE>')
print(root.toprettyxml(' ', '\n'))
if __name__ == "__main__":
try:
ifname = sys.argv[1]
except IndexError:
print("Input file name required")
sys.exit(1)
cc = Converter(ifname)
cc.convert()
NOTE: I'm assuming from the example you posted that every <group> node contains only one <entry> child node.
--edit[0]: corrected a typo in the python code (just realized that it is <comment> instead of <comments ) and made the parsing function more reliable

Export from Crystal Reports to .ttx takes long time
We have multiple sites running the same Crystal report. The report can run and present data in an hour resulting in thousands of records. Then we need the report to be exported into tab-separated text. The export can take 10-12 hours for some of the sites. Could this be a Crystal Reports issue?...Some are running CR10 and some CRXI? We are not sure if it is a systems issue or a Crystal Reports issue. Can anyone help?
Multiple things could be causing this. If you go to the fastest machine, does it have better network access, more mem, etc...
Or, is it just closer to the data source, than the slowest. I would take the quickest, and the slowest and try to isolate
the differences between those two. Honestly, could be anything. Patch levels of CR, Operating system, ODBC Drivers, maybe even printer drivers.
if you find your self exporting to tab delimited quite a bit, it might be worth redesigning the report,
you could add the tabs between the fields in one huge formula. our several smaller ones,
{Item 1} & chr(10) & {Item 2} & chr(10) & {Item 3} & chr(10) & {Item 4}....
anyway, then you could just output standard txt, and your tabs will already be imbedded.
That may buy you some speed. -

Script to export swatch names as tab-delimited text?
Howdy!
I run the screen printing department at a large shipping company, and as we grow, we're trying to integrate & computerize our workflow. 95% of the designs we have on file are built as spot color in Illustrator.
We're trying to automate some functions here in the screen-making department, such as a computer-generated inventory of screens on-hand. When we image a screen, it'll get a barcode sticker and we can then *beep* it into inventory. When we reclaim a screen we can *beep* it out of inventory. My thinking is that this would be a metric ton faster than wandering around on the shop floor looking for screens when clients placed re-orders.
In order to do that, I've got to generate a spreadsheet with the name of each color in the design in its own field of a spreadsheet, so that they can be used to populate our inventory system and get assigned SKU's.
I can do this manually, but it's going to take a long time. What I was sort of half-heartedly wishing for was a way to export the names of all the spot swatches used in a design as text, hopefully tab-delimited so that it can be copy/pasted into a spreadsheet.
Am I nuts?Chris, you could give this a try? It was done for mac OS as a batch. It should…(if it works) write a tab delimited text file to your desktop. As is it works for all the illustrator .ai & pdf files of a given folder. It would append the text file for each directory which you run it on. If it works this could easily be changed to work with just an open doc.
var defaultFolder = new Folder ('~/Desktop');
var illFolder = defaultFolder.selectDlg('Please select your Folder of Illustrator files…');
if (illFolder != null) {
var fileList = illFolder.getFiles(fileFiltering);
if (fileList.length > 0) {
main(fileList);
} else {
alert('This Folder contains NO Illustrator files!');
} else {
alert('User Canceled!');
function main(fileObjs) {
for (var i = 0; i < fileObjs.length; i++) {
var fileName = fileObjs[i].name;
var colorList = customColors(fileObjs[i]);
var thisInfo = fileName + '\t' + colorList;
writeLog(thisInfo);
alert('Finished…');
function customColors(filePath) {
var colorList = '';
filePath.open('r');
while (filePath.tell() < filePath.length) {
var line = filePath.readln();
if (line.substring(0, 23) == '%%DocumentCustomColors:') {
colorList = line.substring(25, line.length-1) + '\t';
var nextLine ='';
while (nextLine.substring(0, 18) != '%%CMYKCustomColor:') {
var nextLine = filePath.readln();

Create text file (ASCII), tab separated and load in sap (transaction al11)
hi..
i need to create a text file (ASCII), tab separated in sap which can be viewed in transaction AL11.
thank you.Hi kailashl,
Do intend to create a tab delimited file through program. or is it that you wish to diretly place the file on the application server.
PS: if you wish to place the file which you have on the application server from presentation you use the tcode CG3Z, you need to give the source file path on the front end and target path on the application.
If you wish to write the file onto the app server using program that you can do using dataset. and for tab delimited u can use CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES=>HORIZONTAL_TAB.
PS: Award points ONLY if the solution was useful to you. -
Export address book group text file?
Hi,
I need to get a group of addresses to a friend who can not use the vcard format. I need to do it in a text file format, but don't see any way in address book to do that.
Can you help?
MegThe vcards are actually text files - you can read them with BBEdit or Text Editor.
One way to achieve what you want is clumsy but may be workable, depending on the number in the group and what your friend plans to do with them. In Address Book, select the group and go to File/Print. Choose the List style, select the fields to be included and then click the PDF button and save the group as a PDF. Send the PDF to your friend. Friend can open it, click the "Select Text" tool, select the data and copy it off to whatever is to receive it.
Another more standard way would be to run applescript to pull the data you need into a comma-separated or tab-separated data file which can be imported into spreadsheet or address book programs. Several versions of such scripts have been posted here recently, or there are various importer/exporter scripts available on the internet.

Is there any methodology whereby a file can be exported, or saved, as a Tab Delimited File?
ThanksSelect All
Copy
Paste in a Pages document
Export as text.
Other way (my preffered one) :
Select All
Copy
run this Script :
--[SCRIPT clipboard2textFile]
Enregistrer le script en tant que Script :clipboard2textFile.scpt
déplacer le fichier créé dans le dossier
<VolumeDeDémarrage>:Users:<votreCompte>:Library:Scripts:
Copiez la table à exporter dans le Presse-papiers.
menu Scripts > clipboard2textFile
Le script créera un fichier TSV (valeurs séparées par TAB).
--=====
L'aide du Finder explique:
L'Utilitaire AppleScript permet d'activer le Menu des scripts :
Ouvrez l'Utilitaire AppleScript situé dans le dossier Applications/AppleScript.
Cochez la case "Afficher le menu des scripts dans la barre de menus".

Save the script as a Script :clipboard2textFile.scpt
Move the newly created file into the folder:
<startup Volume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Library:Scripts:
Copy the table to export into the clipboard

Data getting truncated while exporting report to a text file in crystal 10?
Hi All,
I am using crystal 10.When exporting report to a text file ,a dialog prompts asking for Character perinch with a default value 9.If I change the value from 9 to 16 i am getting the correct data(that means character per inch value is 16) and it update "CharPerInch" value in registry under following location to 16.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal Reports\Export\Text
The dialog asked for character per inch also has option to select not to prompt again and i also selected that in first go.
When i export the report again in text format it didn't prompt for number of character per inch but the data gets truncated.
What i believe is even though it updates entry in registry and reads, it is not using the same value for export. It never consider the value that is in registry, if the check box is not selected then it is using the value entered in the dialog and if the check box is selected then in the next run it uses the default value as 9.
Can anyone suggest me how to override this problem ? Is there any other setting place in registry where i can enter the number of character per inch.I don't want to crystal to prompt always for character per inch.Hi Venkateswaran,
The other option to avoid truncation of the data could be
Right click the text filed
Click on Format Text to open the Format Editor
On Common tab check the text box for Can Grow.
This will prevent the data from truncating in preview as well as while exporting to text.
Otherwise you will have to set the characters per inch to 16 each time. I donu2019t see changing the registry value causing any difference here.

Trying to Export Details Column as Text Files
In the bin, where all the information is columned regarding (on the right hand side) regarding duration/in/out... and all the other information...
Is there a way to export only that information as a text file of any sort? I have a feature film's length worth of footage, and I'm trying to create a list of all the available shots we have for the crew, what master tape they were captured from, their in and out points, and all that...
(As opposed to print screening the whole thing...)
Any help would be just fantastic and save me an incredible amount of time (or confirm I have to spend an incredible amount of time)
Thanks.Export "batch list" will give you a tab delimited text file that can be imported in to a spread sheet. Hide or add columns in the browser for further control.

OBIEE 11.1.1.6.12 - value modification during export in tab delimited format
Hi all,
we have noticed unproper value modification during export in tab delimited format.
Please find example below:
The proper value is 24150170000011615 (it is state register number of enterprise).
The wrong value is 24150170000011600.
Correct value:

http://s23.postimg.org/6k7dwiezf/obiee_2.png
Wrong value after export:
http://s22.postimg.org/qdgqgogn5/obiee_3.png
What should we do to fix it?The bigger picture is as follows:
I have a button on my report that essentially should download the output of report to tab delimited text file. This button is integrated with a custom built class which has a main method. When I click on the button, the logic written in the main method gets executed.
In this method I generate my internal table and pass to cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download method with parameters mention above.
I try debugging but every thing seems to be working correct when sy-subrc = 0 through executable program and it does not enter into the download method logic when i do it through main method, instead sy-subrc is straight set to 6 (unknown error).

At work i have to deal with a lot of excels in which i have to save the file as .txt and then .xls, I will then upload the .txt file to SAP
In the txt files, the numbers are being saved with "." (dot) and not with a ","(Comma) in the decimals, even though then numbers in excel are formated in number with 2 decimals and with comma separator.
So I'm having problems with this, I've tried the different formats (number, text, general) but nothing seems to work. If I save manually in Tab delimited .txt the files is always saved with a comma in the decimals, but if i run the excel macro the .txt always save with a dot. I've also tried changing the file format in my VBA (TextWindows, TextMSDOS, Currentplatformtext) without sucess.
Can anyone give me some help with this? I've been looking the internet for a solution but found none. The number of files i have to upload is huge, so i'd like to program my macro to do all this saving automatically.
Thank you..
PS:The VBA code I am using now is this:
Sub Save()
Dim NomeFicheiro As String
Dim PathGrav As String
NomeFicheiro = InputBox("Nome do Ficheiro?")
PathGrav = "H:\Starflows\" & NomeFicheiro
If NomeFicheiro = "" Then Exit Sub
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=PathGrav, FileFormat:=xlTextWindows, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=PathGrav, FileFormat:=xlNormal, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
End SubI thought it might me the regional settings, mine are in Portuguese and by default we have the comma as decimal separator, so this should be ok.
I tried changing to the English (US) format using both the comma and the dot as separator, but the problem remains, the macro is always saved with dot instead of comma, even so if I save the file manually as tab delimited text.
What I also did was, I configured dot as decimal separator in the regional settings and putted commas in the numbers in my excel, I think it recognizes the numbers as text, in this case, when i run the macro the numbers in the text are saved with quotes like this but with commas, for example "12,56". But in this case SAP does not accept the file because of the quotes.
I remembered something that might be the reason for this happening. when I manually save as tab delimited .txt, excel asks me 2 questions, which i answer yes and which could be important.
1. Excel tells me that the selected file type does not support workbooks that contain multiple sheets and to save only the active sheet click ok. This does not look like the problem but i changed the code to:
ActiveSheet.SaveAs Filename:=PathGrav, FileFormat:=xlTextWindows, CreateBackup:=False
I executed it but the dot and not comma remains.
2. 123.txt may contain features that are not compatible with Text (Tab delimited). Do you want to keep the workbook in this format?
*To keep this format, which leaves out any incompatible features, click Yes.
*To preserve the features, click No. then save a copy in the latest Excel format
I press yes and the file is saved as comma delimited.
Could it be that i need to add something to my VBA code, as when the macro runs I am not prompted any of these questions.

Import data from tsv (tab separated values) file
I have a large tab separated values file that I want to import into an oracle table so I can a) run queries on this data and b) split into smaller and more manageable files.
I'm very new to Oracle. I have installed 10g XE and sql_developer.
This tsv file has 3,684,011 rows. Maybe it could be imported into an Access DB then into Oracle, but that seems like extra work??I have a text.tsv file (Google calls it a csv, but
that's their error) which I feel I should be able to
just drop onto AW and have it open in a spreadsheet.
All I get is a couple of odd characters in the A1
cell.
Try dropping the file onto an open AppleWorks word processor document. If it is indeed a tab delimited text file, with no internal formatting information, you should then be able to copy it and paste into a spreadsheet.
Your comment regarding "a couple of odd characters in the A1 cell" indicates to me that there's more than simply text, tabs and returns in the file. If that's the case, you should be able to see the extra (often odd) characters in the WP document. If so, toggle 'Show invisibles' to on by pressing command-; (semi colon), then copy only the relevant text, tabs (will show as a right pointing arrow) and returns (will show as a reversed L haped arrow pointing left), and paste that block into your spreadsheet.

Barry
