Export to Excel - German Umlauts

Hello Experts,
i have the following problem and no idea how to solve:
When i have a Web Report opened and export it to .xls german words like "Stückzahl" become something like "StÃ¼ckzahl" - does anyone know how to solve?
SAP Netweaver BW 7.10
Excel 2007
If I export, it makes no difference whether I use the Internet Explorer or Firefox.
If you have more questions or need specific informations, please tell me.
With kind regards

Hello Mr. Simpson,
Please check SAP Note 1536353. Remembering that for Excel Export you can define the character set (eg. UTF-16) in the Export to Excel command in your template (if you use the default, it is 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN).
Hope it helps.
Kind Regards,
Marcio

German umlauts not supported in CSV file export of campaigns

Hi all,
I just customized and tested exporting business partner data out of a marketing campaign to a CSV file. I created a mail form and made the appropriate customizing settings in SPRO.
All worked fine, but when opening this file with MS EXCEL, german umlauts (ä, ö, ü, ß) cannot be depicted correctly.
I figured out so far, that my file in encoded in UTF-8.
Does anybody know if there are some settings to be made in SAP and/or Excel to solve the problem with the umlauts?
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks a lot.
Best regards
Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,
I had the same problem as well. This is the solution suggested by SAP Support:
Unfortunately this is a problem with Microsoft Excel. It is not able to
handle the UTF-8 format file directly. Please try the following steps
and check whether the data is displayed correctly -
1) Download the file to your local system
2) Open a worksheet in Excel
3) choose 'Data->Import External Data -> Import Data' from the menu
4) Then select the file and import it.
Please remember to set the encoding of the file as UTF8

German Umlaut in CSV export on mac os

Hello,
i have problems with the csv export when i use an apple mac. German Umlaute are not displayed correctly, neither when i open the .csv file with TextApp nor when i open it with Numbers from iWork.
On a windows machine all is fine. Excel and every text editor i tried opens the file fine with the umlaute displaying correct.
The application is set to automatically encode the csv and application language is set to german.
Is there any other setting that i can change to get a correct csv export on an apple mac?
Apex version is 4.0.2.00.07, Oracle version is 11.2.0.1.0.
Thanks for help in advance,
Dirk

Hi Dirk,
Most likely, the Automatic CSV encoding attribute is set to 'Yes' for your application. If you're running your application in German, then the CSV file will be encoded in WE8MSWIN1252.
Can you try setting Automatic CSV Encoding to "No" (in the Globalization attributes of your application)? The CSV file will then be encoded in UTF-8 - which means that your Windows users may not open it directly but, instead, have to do a data import and specify utf-8 character set.

Howto set up proper utf-8 locales and german umlaute?

Hi there,
have some issues here and i think it has something to do with my locales... I have them since one of the last updates i think...
First problem:
In Kopete, i can send the german "umlaute" (ä, ö, ü) to others and they are sent and displayed correctly at their side... But when they send me these characters, i get only a square and a deleted next-letter-in-the-word by them. This happens with every theme and font combination in kopete. Here is an example:
Second problem:
In Konsole, the "umlaute" are correctly displayed on my folders, but in the messages i get the chars are simply deleted and not visible. This happens in the VC and in Xorg too. Here is another example:
(It should mean "Keine Handbuch Seite für pacman.conf")
My config:
I think i have configured my System properly, well at least i hope that Here are the relevant parts of my config files:
/etc/rc.conf:
LOCALE="de_DE.utf8"
KEYMAP="de"
CONSOLEFONT=
CONSOLEMAP=
/etc/profile:
export LANG="de_DE.utf8"
export LANGUAGE="de_DE.utf8"
/etc/locale.gen:
de_DE.UTF-8 UTF-8
en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8
And "locale -a" gives me:
C
POSIX
de_DE.utf8
en_US.utf8
The fonts I use:
KDE GUI: Bitstream Vera Sans (everywhere)
Y-Terminal (Konsole) Font: Bitstream Vera Sans mono
So, how can i configure a proper german utf-8? I have already searched the forums (both here and the DE one) and the wiki, but found no solution to this....
THX
Funkyou

Thx for the suggestions, but none of them seems to solve it...
baze:
This line was already uncommented and i have generated my locales for several times now... I have updated my post with the uncommented lines in /etc/locale.gen, just to collect all information...
Romashka:
Ok, but what if the two variables contain the same content? I mean, when i define LANG="de_DE.utf8" in /etc/profile and it is then overwritten by /etc/profile.d/lang.sh with LANG="de_DE.utf8", then this is simply the same variable defined twice with the same content... I have tried to unset the one in /etc/profile, but it did not solve it...
As for CONSOLEFONT, i had never one defined, can anyone suggest me a proper one? And the other question is: Its not working on the terminals, but it is also not working in Xorg, so is this really a CONSOLEFONT issue?
I have tried another thing and switched my locales to de_DE@euro ISO-8859-15, and with this setting the chars appear correctly... But i cannot be the only one where it does not work, i feel so excluded without UTF-8
Have also tried another terminal in Xorg... In XTerm the chars are not deleted like in Kopete or on the VC, but i see an inverted question mark instead of them...

Tranlation of text 'Export nach Excel' for ALV in WD ABAP

Hi,
I've created a WD that uses an ALV component. The problem I have is related to standar ALV texts. There are several buttons in the ALV header but just one is important in this case. The one is 'Export nach Excel'.
I execute the WD for Spanish language but this text always appears in German. The funny thing is that if I execute in English the text appears translated in English. Spanish language is loaded in the system so this is not the problem.
I've tried to find this 'Expot nach Excel' text in Se63 but without success. Also I had a look to table LTDXT with no luck.
Any ideas where I can find this text and translate it into Spanish?
Thanks.

Hi,
there might be incomplete language transports in your system or other things. But first you could position the cursor on the button in the application and then press F1. Then the help information is displayed together with the technical information where you should see the technical info about the object.
Regards, Heidi

German Umlauts in helptext displayed as rectangle

Background
Upgrading Apex from 3.2.x to 4.0.2.00.07
Problem
Apex running in German. The tests look normal ( German Umlauts looks correct)
Only customized helptext or standard help text will display the Umlauts as rectangles.
Load_de.sql was running corrctly
On Apex.oracle.com -> The issue also not reproduceable
If set: Set Screen Reader Mode On = on
it works too?
Environment
ApEx 4.0.2.00.07 on linux 64-bit on a 11.1.1.0.7 database
Client: XP SP3 IE 8
Any ideas?
Perhaps similar issues in other languages like French or so?
Thanks Hendrik

Did you look at the character set when you exported your application from the 3.2 environment?
Did you import it into the 4 environment using the same character set?

Parameter QUARTAL -- Export to Excel

Hi,
Setup: german date format: dd.mm.yyyy
In one basic table, we add a new column showing yearly quarters (set up in the admin area):
Start Date Quarter
1.6.2007 Q2 2007
15.10.2007 Q3 2007
But if I do a export to excel, the shown quarters are changed to dates (dd/mm/yyyy) back again:
Start Date Quarter
1.6.2007 1.4.2007
15.10.2007 1.10.2007
I dont know how oracle admin treats all these data and why it changes the quartals to dates back?!?
Thanks for any ideas

Continuing on from what PH says:
How about converting the date to a text first before the export to Excel.
I remember doing this same kind of thing that you're referring to in the past where the exported Excel file had to be in a certain format to be sent to another company.
So adding a calculation in the Disco workbook to convert the date to text would 'freeze' the format you want, and therefore when exported, should have the 'text' version of the date - so hopefully no conversion by Excel.

[solved] grep german umlaut using regex? use iconv

Hi guys,
when grepping
"<condition data="Bewölkt"/><temp_f data="45"/>"
i don't get any output.
The same grep sequence works fine for words like "Leichter Regen" or "Klar", so i suspect grep fails because of the german umlaut ("ö" in this case).
Now, this is my current locale:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
If i export LC_ALL=de_DE i no longer get 0 output but rather "Bew" instead of "Bewölkt" or "Meistens" instead of "Meistens bewölkt".
Any ideas how to teach grep to use iso-8859-15 or something like that?
Here's the relevant part of the function:
declare -a wetter
wetter=(`curl -silent "http://www.google.de/ig/api?weather=$1+$2+$3" | grep -o 'condition data=\"[A-Z].*\"/><temp_f' | grep -o '[A-Z][a-z]*'`)
echo Wetter: $wetter

Yes, i was just now getting into regular expressions and sed so my functions will be very dirty for the time being . I'll try the sed command though, thank you.
I tried iconv as well as your suggestions but the problem remains.
When i save the .xml file on my hard drive i can grep "bewölkt" but not when i use curl to view the data. When i use curl grep simply ignores everything after the umlaut:
curl -silent "http://www.google.de/ig/api?weather=Berlin" | grep -o 'condition data=\"[[:alpha:]]*.*'
condition data="Meistens bew
condition data="Wind: W mit Windgeschwindigkeiten von 23 km/h"/>[...]
Maybe the problem is that i don't seem to have iso8895* locales.

Sorry, I've never localized the system before. I always found it convenient just to stick with en_US.utf8 until now.
I've already changed the function to use google.com so i don't have the umlaut-problem anymore.

Export to excel formatting

I'm working on a quote report which has narrative sections as well as a table. I can get the report to look great in the application but it has formatting problems once exported to excel.
In one of my narrative reports I have a simple table with a few columns. Once exported to excel the first narrative column is the entire width of the report table below it. The large cell row is also merged cells in excel.
Is there anything that can be done to help force how the report goes into excel?
I have also tried creating the report in a narrative html table to export into excel.

Can someone explain if they face similar issues as I am when you export a report output on portal to Excel it takes huge size. I assume it because of all the color formatting etc. but is there a way to reduce this size. 3.5 Bex Analyzer same report takes only 3 MB while if I export it from portals it takes 32 MB.

Export to Excel Action in MS SSRS Report not exporting all data in Report

Hi,
I have developed a complex Report that has many expandable nodes in a table format. The report works fine.
However, when I export the Report to Excel using Actions --> export to Excel, only the data in expanded nodes is included. The data in collapsed nodes is not included.
I am looking for approach to include data in expanded nodes in Excel Export. The expanded data can be expanded in Excel.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Hi Abhijit PS,
Per my understanding you are experiencing the issue with the excel report which have add the drill down action, after export to excel only the expanded nodes included and the collapsed nodes is not shown, right?
Generally, if we expand the nodes before export to excel then the excel will display the expanded details row and keep collapsed the details row which haven't expand, but we have the toggle "+","-" on the left of the Excel to help
control the expand and collapse, when you click the "+" you can expand the collapsed notes to see the details rows.
I have tested on my local environment with different version of SSRS and can always see the "+","-" as below:
On the Top left corner you can find the "1","2", this help to control the "Collapse All" and "Expand All".
If you can't see the "+","-" in the excel, the issue can be caused by the Excel version you are currently using, and also excel have limit support of this, please provide us the Excel version information and the SSRS version. You
can reference to this similar thread:
lost collapsing columns when export to excel
Please try to export other drill down report to excel and check if they work fine, if they did, the issue can be caused by the drill down action you have added in this report is not correctly, if possible, please try to redesign the report.

Exporting to Excel from Aria People Search

Is it possible to export to Excel from Aria People Search.
I would like to output the Org Chart (built in) and the Tree (I created) to an Excel file.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks,
Tom

Hi,
If you are using 10g, then OLE2 is supported. However, it will be executed in the App Server Machine.
If you want to do the operation in the Client machine (as how it was done in the Client / Server), you need to use Client_OLE (Which is part of WebUtil).
Look at

for more details on WebUtil.

German Umlaute don't work after upgrading to Yosemite with Japanese Romaji Layout set on U.S.

Hi everyone,
previously i could just use [ALT] + [U] and then press [A] / [a] / [U] / [u] / [O] / [o] to generate the german umlaut version.
After installing Yosemite this does not work anymore, which is kinda frustrating. Cause it forces me to add another keyboard layout and switch when i have to write a german umlaut.
I was previously using 'Input Source' > 'Japanese' > Enabled Romaji (Romaji layout was set to U.S.) & Hiragana.
For testing purpose i added the Standard U.S. Layout and writing the Umlaut with the keyboard shortcut still works there. So that's why i think this is a Romaji specific bug.
Has anyone any idea what's wrong ? Did Apple change something ?
Best Regards

Before I stumbled upon this thread, there was no flag at all. I had the character viewer there because pre-Yosemite it was the only way to access emoji (and things like arrows and other special symbols) in many apps (and still is for my Adobe CS5 apps). Additionally, I would use the keyboard viewer from time to time as a way to learn which keys to use for other special symbols (bring up the keyboard viewer and press option or shift-option or other combinations and it would show you a preview of what each key would generate).
While reading this thread, I added more input sources (US International and US Extended) and would see the flags. The flags replaced the previous character/keyboard viewer menu icon. I switched between each flag to test my issue under each, to no avail. Then I tried adding the Spanish keyboard but still had the same issue.
Now I've removed all the input sources except the primary US keyboard. There is no longer a flag in my menu, it's gone back to the character viewer icon.
The issue is still there. When I type option-r, u, or g, in any app nothing happens at all.
Unfortunately, neither auto-substitution nor press-and-hold work in Adobe CS5 apps, which is where I need to use these special characters the most.
Thank you for reaching out

Matrix exporting to excel with empty columns, with page break option of "Between each instance of a group" selected.

I am working with Report Builder 3.0 I am using a matrix to produce grouped data on separate worksheets in excel.
The select is:
SELECT ID, Measurement, Value, [Date] FROM Measurements_Report. (please ignore the underscores they are just for formatting)
The contents of the Measurements_Report table:
ID__Measurement__Value__[Date]
1___Hot_________33_____10/1/2014
2___Hot_________44_____10/2/2014
3___Cold_________55_____10/2/2014
The matrix contains a single row group based on the field "measurement". The Measurement group has the page break option of "Between each instance of a group" selected.
There is a column group based on the field "Date".
When this is matrix is exported to excel on the first worksheet (Hot) there are three columns as shown below:
ID__10/1/2014____10/2/2014___10/2/1014
1___33
2_______________44
Notice the last column doesn't have a value.
On the second worksheet (Cold) there are also three columns as shown below:
ID__10/1/2014___10/2/2014___10/2/1014
3__________________________55
This time notice there is only one row and only a value in the last column.
I only want the columns with data for that worksheet to show up. How can I remove these empty/duplicate columns? Hopefully there is a simple fix. Thanks ahead of time.

With the following contents of the Measurements_Report table:
ID__Measurement__Value__[Date]
1___Hot_________33______10/1/2014
2___Hot_________43______10/1/2014
2___Hot_________44______10/2/2014
3___Cold________55______10/2/2014
Returns on the first tab (Hot):
ID__10/1/2014____10/1/2014____10/2/2014
1___33
2_________________43
2______________________________44
In the excel worksheet it contains a separate column for each date with a value. Thanks again!
Why is the same date repeating on multiple columns? Do you've the time part also returned from database?

Issue with export in Excel in WAD

Hi
I have an issue with export to excel in WAD. I have a web template with two or more tabs.
On the webtemplate I have two buttons to export to excel. One to export the content from the active tab and one button to export content in all tabs.
My problem is that when I export to excel it always add the current/active content twice. I've tried with both buttons and they work as expected except that they export one table to much (the active).
can anyone help / give a clue what to look for.
br,
John

Hi
Sorry I has been a while but the problem still occurs,
I've defined my export button group like this in a seperate template and I expected that it would only return the resultset from TAB_A and TAB_B but it also export the resultset from the tab I'm currently on.
<bi:TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS name="TEMPLATE_PARAMETERS" />
            <bi:BUTTON_GROUP_ITEM name="TAB_BUTTONs" designheight="23" designwidth="300" >
                <bi:BUTTON_LIST type="ORDEREDLIST" >
                    <bi:BUTTON type="COMPOSITE" index="2" >
                        <bi:CAPTION value="EXCEL" />
                        <bi:TOOLTIP value="Table, Graph and/or Table/Graph download to PDF" />
                        <bi:ACTION type="CHOICE" value="INSTRUCTION" >
                            <bi:INSTRUCTION >
                                <bi:EXPORT >
                                    <bi:ITEM_REF_LIST type="UNORDEREDLIST" >
                                        <bi:ITEM_REF index="1" value="TAB_A_ANALYSIS" />
                                        <bi:ITEM_REF index="2" value="TAB_A_CHART" />
                                        <bi:ITEM_REF index="3" value="TAB_B_ANALYSIS" />
                                        <bi:ITEM_REF index="4" value="TAB_B_CHART" />
                                    </bi:ITEM_REF_LIST>
                                    <bi:EXPORT_FORMAT value="XLS" />
                                </bi:EXPORT>
                            </bi:INSTRUCTION>
                        </bi:ACTION>
                    </bi:BUTTON>
