Export to Excel using a single format file as a template

Can I use a single PDF file with form fields as a template to export several other similar PDF files (without fields) to excel?
I scanned in several report files with the same table format but different data values and wanted to export this data into excel.

Not possible.

"Excel found unreadable content in" The Problem is text in a clob exported to excel uses - Left single quotation mark -Right double quotation mark.

Here are the ASCII char being used.
145 221 91 10010001 ‘  ‘ Left single quotation mark
146 222 92 10010010 ’  ’ Right single quotation mark
147 223 93 10010011 “  “ Left double quotation mark
148 224 94 10010100 ”  ” Right double quotation mark
149 225 95 10010101 •  • Bullet
150 226 96 10010110 –  – En dash --
The default CHAR NOW is a black diamond with ? in middle in stead of 'Right double quoation mark' and others.
The Text used is copied from documents user's get
so someone is putting in I think what is called ALT ascii. This data has been used for years
some updates where put in the system, I don't know details.
The following error started you click YES and the XLS has alot of data missing not just the CLOB.
Excel found unreadable content in ‘file-name’.
Do you want to recover the contents of this workbook?
If you trust the source of this workbook click yes.
I can copy the text then load it into the a column in a xls.
I am exporting the spreadsheet from TOAD it wasn't updated so
it has to be with the EXCEL. I tried changing the ENCODING in EXCEL but that
didn't work.

I'm not familiar with TOAD, could you please let us know how did you export data from TOAD to Excel?
Based on your description, it should be an encoding problem, have you tried to change the encoding as 'UTF-8' ?

Export to Excel from Reports produces corrupt file format

Whenever I choose to export to excel results of custom reports I am unable to open the file as I am told the file format is corrupt. The contents show as containing xml data and even changing the extension from xls to xml does not get me anywhere.
If I save the report and then download I am still informed the file format does not match the extension but the fie will open in Excel.

Hi,
Please raise a ticket or provide the URL if the issue is still there.

Export to Excel and Save as Static File

Hello all,
When I export to excel from SharePoint 2013, and save the file, the data remains dynamic in that if I update the list in SharePoint it will update the data in Excel. This is great and I use it in a few places, but I also need to capture a point in time and
save the exported Excel file as static data (i.e. Export to Excel, and Save as the Q3 Report). How can I save the file as static/remove the dynamic link so I just have the data at the time of export?
Thanks!

Hi Kelly,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to export to excel as a static file.
In SharePoint, when you export list to excel, it works as a one-way sync. It can sync data from SharePoint to Excel. If you don’t want to sync the data from SharePoint, you can copy the data from the exported excel file to a new excel, then save the new
excel file.

Export to excel using value set

Hi all,
I have an ALV table and in some columns I show the texts defining value_set (set_attribute_value_set). When I export the table to Excel using the standard button in the file I can see the codes, not the defined texts. How can I solve it? I thought about defining additional columns which will contain the texts and will be invisible in the screen and visible in Excel sheet instead of the column with codes, but I would like to know if there is any easier solution.
Thank you,
Anna

Hi
You can use Filedownload control to download the content you prepare as XML
reading the context.
For Ex: if you have product ID, Product Name and price as attributes.
you can create the XML string as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<products>
<product>
 <productID>1234</productID>
 <productName>Sony</productName>
 <price>1234.00</price>
</product>
<product>
 <productID>1234</productID>
 <productName>Sony</productName>
 <price>1234.00</price>
</product>
</products>
copy paste this in note pad name the file as products.xls and open it in MSXL.
similarly you can read the context and form this xstring and just supply to filedownload control.

Reports output delayed when exported to Excel using OLE2

Hi All,
Platform - Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 10.1.2.3 on Windows 32 bit.
The report output is getting generated in a minute when exported to PDF i.e destype=cache & desformat=pdf. When we generate the output to excel is considerably delayed. It is taking time and internal server error is occuring.
1) Report developed with simple query
2) Used RPT2XLS procedure which uses OLE2 builtin to export report output into excel.
3) Called RPT2XLS.run procedure in After-Report trigger of the report.
4) We have relased all memory objects in the RPT2XLS package after exporting data and there is no EXCEL.exe running once the file is generated.
System parameters used in the URL.
. destype=file
desformat=pdf
CONTAINSOLE=yes (Required for exporting OLE2 objects into Excel in report)
desname=path & name of the file.
I have gone through the tuning documents for reports server and increased minengine, maxengine and initengine parameters of the reports engine and also changed maxconnect and IdleTimeout parameters in reports server configuration file.
What might be the reason for delaying in the output of the reports when exported to Excel. Can the guys with special knowledge on this area help us in getting out of this issue.
Thanks in advance.

Exporting into Excel Using the Dynpro Binary Cache is not working on NW04s

Hello,
I am using excel data export using the
"Exporting Context Data into Excel Using the Web Dynpro Binary Cache" guide at
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/edc2f3c2-0401-0010-8898-acd5b6a94353">this link</a>.
The tutorial is working on NW04 but when I use it on NW04s I receive errors for the StringBuffer object:
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.lang.StringBuffer.append(Ljava/lang/String;)Ljava/lang/AbstractStringBuilder;
Any ideas?

Hallo Roy,
I have created an updated/enhanced version of this tutorial running on NW 7.0. The new solution allows to open the exported Excel File instantly without opening a popup window befor:
See <a href="https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/x/0mQ">Exporting Table Data Using On-Demand Streams - SAP NetWeaver 7.0</a>.
NOTE:
Use LinkedHashMap instead of HashMap
private Map getProductColumnInfos() {
 Map columnInfosMap = new LinkedHashMap();
 columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.QUANTITY, "Quantity");
 columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.ARTICLE, "Article");
 columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.COLOR, "Color");
 columnInfosMap.put(IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.PRICE, "Price in EURO");
 columnInfosMap.put(
 IPrivateTableCompBasketView.IProductsElement.TOTAL__PER__ARTICLE,
 "Total Per Article In Euro");
 return columnInfosMap;
This keeps the order of key-displaytext-pairs passed by the client (table component) to the service (excel export component) stable.

When you run your application, it is complaining that it cannot find a class. That class is part of Apache XMLBeans (http://xmlbeans.apache.org/). You need to ensure that you get the XMLBeans JAR file and include it in your project, just like you did for the Apache POI JAR file.

Maybe it's possible, but I doubt it.
Reason is that you're asking the URL to run the report and then once done export out the values and I just don't think the 'i' - or now 'g' versions support this.
This was why the command line interface with the Desktop version was so popular as this is exactly the kind of thing you can do, plus much more.
I checked the documentation for Plus and can find nothing about doing this in the URL. Maybe someone will say otherwise, but with Plus I don't think it's possible.

How do I export a movie using a different format (iMovie 2013)

Title question. I can only seem to export my movie using .mp4 and I've seen on youtube using previous versions of iMovie being able to change the format...
I use a Sony DSC-HX20V to capture my footage which formats the videos in AVCHD and it records in an image quality of 50p. I want to also know how to import these videos onto a 4th generation iPod Touch and which format will support the device better. Thank You.

Although I don't use it myself, saving to Theater creates versions for all sorts of devices including iPod Touches.
iMovie 10 help says:
"When you add a movie, trailer, or clip to the Theater, iMovie creates versions of your movie tailored for local playback (1080p HD), playback on an iOS device (720p HD), and web streaming (480p SD)."

Underlay row not exported to excel to a single row

Happy New Year to all,
I have an underlay function in Details a section. I also have Details b thru Details z sections. When using the underlay feature in Details a, it lines up beautifully with Details b row. However, when I export to excel data only, Details a appears on its own row above Details b. What can I do to have the underlay row, Details a export alongside Details b in the same row?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Zack H.

Hi zack
Iam not giving yout he straight forward solution. but here are my inputs,
1. please check exportingto PDF? if it is fine, then we have to align the report in such a way that export to excel will bring desired result. ioe we have to design, Keeping the result in mind.
Because, the technique used to export to oexcel is line by line scanning method here as to PDF it is snap shot kind of.
