Export to Multi-tabbed Excel File

Hi,
I'm using Crystal Reports XI R1 and aside from designing reports in WEBi, do newer versions of Crystal support exporting reports to multi-tabbed Excel files?
Thanks,
Brian

Read multi-tabbed excel file attachments from Sender Mail Adapter.

There is a need to read excel attachments from incoming email to a
mailbox. We know we can use Sender Mail adapter to easily read .xml, .txt
or .csv attachments.
For excel attachments we know from SDN that you have to write
adapter modules to handle excel. However the excel file we need to read has
multiple worksheets(tabs) and data may be contained in any of them.
Is it possible to use SAP XI Mailsender adapter to read such a file as an attachment? What kind of module development would we need for this? I am not much of a Java programmer so examples or links to other documentation would help.
Thanks,
Rudra

Rudra,
Use Java Mapping. There is a free java api available called JExcelAPI to achieve this.
Shabarish's blog describes about this. This might be helpful to you

Can we create Multi Tabbed excel Sheet using Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
We want to create a Crystal Report which will export the output as multiple Tab's ( we can use sub reports). Can we create a Multi Tabbed excel Sheet using Crystal Reports 2008 ( not Crystal reports Basic 2008). Please share any information/links on how to do that.
Also if it is not supported please let us know which version supports it.
Thanks,
Vasu

At least one of the 3rd-party Crystal Reports Desktop Scheduling tools listed at: http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html provides that functionality. It allows you to burst a single report so that each Group at level 1 becomes a separate tab. You can control the tab names (and tab colors) via fields/formulas inside the report.
You can also automate the process of exporting to (and also replacing or appending to) specified tabs inside existing workbooks.

How do I open a multi-tab excel document in numbers?

New mac for Christmas!
I am reluctant to instal MS Office and am willing to try out Apples programs. Only major issue is I cannot open my multi-tab workbooks that I created in Excel. I use them daily. Is there anyway to open them? Does the Numbers program have tabs si

What have you tried? I generally drop the excel file on the Numbers icon in the doc.
If you want the files to remain excel files you should get excel. If you are ok transitioning to Numbers give it a try. Numbers will export to excel once a file is open but does NOT natively save excel files.
You can also try OpenOffice or LibreOffice for free.

Export internal table to Excel file pressing a new button created in ALV

Hello, I am trying to implement the functionality to export to excel file inside a button that i have created into my ALV. I don't want to use FileDownload UI.
The code I have set for event handler of this button is the following:
METHOD attach_files .
TYPES:
    BEGIN OF tipo_alv_tab,
      tipod    TYPE objid,
      descd   TYPE p1000-stext,
      begda   TYPE begdatum,
      endda   TYPE enddatum,
      pernr     TYPE pernr_d,
      nombre TYPE ad_namefir,
      email     TYPE ad_smtpadr,
      posicion TYPE p1000-stext,
      uodesc   TYPE p1000-stext,
    END OF tipo_alv_tab.
DATA:
    i_alv_tab    TYPE TABLE OF tipo_alv_tab,
    conv_out     TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_out_ce,
    content      TYPE xstring,
    lv_filename TYPE string,
    xml_out      TYPE string.
Fill values from memory
IMPORT name1 TO i_alv_tab FROM MEMORY ID 'ZCA'.
Build XML file with internal table information
CALL TRANSFORMATION ('ID') SOURCE tab = i_alv_tab[] RESULT XML xml_out.
Build XSTRING with XML
CALL FUNCTION 'CRM_IC_XML_STRING2XSTRING'
    EXPORTING
      instring   = xml_out
    IMPORTING
      outxstring = content.
Format XSTRING
conv_out = cl_abap_conv_out_ce=>create( encoding = 'UTF-8' ).
Convert data
conv_out->convert( EXPORTING data = xml_out IMPORTING buffer = content ).
Save file
CALL METHOD cl_wd_runtime_services=>attach_file_to_response
    EXPORTING
      i_filename      = 'Excel File.xls'
      i_content       = content
      i_mime_type     = 'application/msexcel'
      i_in_new_window = i_in_new_window
      i_inplace       = i_inplace.
ENDMETHOD.
When pressing the button, the file created is without extension, and with a rare name. When trying to open the file, it seems to be corrupted.
Does anyone know what am I doing wrong???
Please, help is really really appreciated!!!!

Hi Jorge,
The export data to excel functionality is available inbuilt in ALV and you dont have to write any implementation. However, if you want to create your own button for it, you can do so as below.
data:
lr_button type ref to cl_salv_wd_fe_button,
lr_function type ref to cl_salv_wd_function.
CREATE OBJECT lr_button.
lr_button->set_text( 'Export to excel' ).
lr_button->set_tooltip( 'Export data to excel' ).
lr_function = l_alv_model->if_salv_wd_function_settings~create_function( id = 'EXCEL' ).
lr_function->set_function_std( IF_SALV_WD_C_STD_FUNCTIONS=>EXPORT_EXCEL ).
lr_function->set_editor( lr_button ).
Now, you have created your own button, created a user defined function for the ALV and set this button as editor for the function. And using the set_function_std method, we have just mapped the functionality of your new button to the existing export to excel functionality in ALV.
Hope this is what you are looking for.

Multi-Tab Excel worksheet

Is it possible to create a multi-tabbed worksheet in CF 8? I can do a single tab using cfcontent, haven't found anything on adding additional tabs

CFCONTENT has nothing to do with generating excel sheets.You're just defining that output data is sent in binary form, with a certain mime type. Creating an Excel sheet is something completely separated. If you use already a third party component for this, check if it supports multiple worksheets.
A csv file is not an Excel worksheet (conceptually) at all. There are no features like sheets. It's dummy data with just commas, quotes, values and linefeeds.
One alternative would be to create an Excel XML worksheet. I haven't tried thismyself, but here are some pointers:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa140066%28office.10%29.aspx
http://prsync.com/oracle/multisheet-excel-output-18866/
CF9 is of course the easiest solution with its cfspreadsheet tag, if you can upgrade.

Exporting Tcode MKVZ to Excel File

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to export the output of tcode MKVZ (List of Vendors: Purchasing) to a local file in the format of spreadsheet. I successfully exported the file but when I reviewed the content on the excel file, some rows were missing and others were merge to other rows.
Please help me how can I export it properly on spreadsheet.
Regards,
Ronald

Hi Jürgen,
Your guess is absolutely right. I'm connecting to the sap system remotely so that's why I need to export it locally. Then, I choose the format spreadsheet. By default on the filename, there was already a .XLS extension, so I only need to add the name of the file then click the generate button. It was successfully generated. When I tried to open it on the excel, it always prompts me that the file I'm going to open is in a different format than the specified by the file extension. Still, I ignored the warning message since the excel file can read and open the file. But the data format was not on the right rows or columns.
Now I understand that it should be in a txt format before I import it to an excel file. But how come that the spreadsheet is not an excel format? I thought it is a format of excel.
Thanks so much for your help, assistance and patience.
Cheers!
Ronald

SSIS: Merge Problem: the input is not sorted (for use in exporting a multi-record format file)

I am using the following useful article regarding exporting a multi-record file:
http://vsteamsystemcentral.com/cs21/blogs/steve_fibich/archive/2007/09/25/multi-record-formated-flat-file-with-ssis.aspx
I have created the 2 datasources, ordering each on a field commmon to both.
I have created the two derived columns headers and am now moving on to the merge.
It is failing with the following error:
"the input is not sorted"
And whilst I definitely have an order by on the query, when I look at the metadata between the datasource and the derived column, the Sort Key Position items displays "0" for all my fields, I was expecting the sort field to have a "1" in this column. What am I missing?
Any help would be most appreciated!

The thing to remember here is that the SSIS designer gets its metadata from the RDBMS - metadata like the column names, data types and sizes that describe the data being returned.
But the RDBMS metadata does not include anything about the sort order of the data.
If you have an ORDER BY clause in your source query, you need to accurately and appropriately set the IsSorted and SortKeyPosition properties in the Advanced Editor for your data source component. It is your responsibility as the package developer to ensure that you're giving SSIS the correct information. If you're not, you'll get the same errors you've posted here.

Export properties to an Excel file

Hello,
Is it possible to export all properties of each page and Iview to an Excel file?
Greetings,
Gene

Hi Gene,
No, but the documentation is MUCH better than three years ago :-] (there was no doc at all about these things, and nevertheless we started to develop such things and more).
Get used to it, and you will gain some knowledge you will be able to re-use for other problems...
Hope it helps

How to export data to an excel file using VBScript

I'm trying to create a VBScript in DIAdem (V9.1) which automatically saves all the current channels in the data portal to an excel file. I've tried using 'Call ExcelExport' and specify a full file path but the file is never created. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
There are a couple of other things you can try. If you don't like Ingo's suggestion about multiple Excel STP files, your only real option is to create an ASCII file. Note that you can give the ASCII file an extension of *.CSV or even *.XLS, and Excel will read it right in.
So the question boils down to how to format the ASCII export correctly and quickly.
You can use the DAT file approach Ingo mentioned and even re-write the file with VBS to include a few header lines of your own choosing. Note that this approach does NOT support text channels. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
You can alternatively use the CSV export function in DIAdem 9.1 to output an ASCII file with the name of each channel as the single header row above all the values. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
You can also just read the values from the DIAdem channels and write them out to an ASCII file cell by cell, managing everything with VBScript calls. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
I hope that helps,

Hi,
its not like that excel will show you only 65k lines, you can just export the file into excel and open it in editor or import it into access and work on it. but dont open file in excel and save it, it will save only 65k lines only.

Exporting char(string) to excel file using GUI_DOWNLOAD

Dear Team,
When i am trying to export Data of type Char(like 12345678987654321) , after export it convert this data to Floating format(scientific n1E+n2) which is not my desired output .i need to change it using excel cell format control.
suggest me how can i handle this..
Thanks in Advance*.

Hello Santosh,
Play with the below importing parameters in the function module "GUI_DOWNLOAD".
WK1_N_FORMAT - Format for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_N_SIZE - Column width for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_T_FORMAT - Format for text columns for files of the type WK1
WK1_T_SIZE - Column width for text columns for files of the type WK1.
It might help you I guess. Also read the documentation of those importing parameters by clicking on the long text green icon after the description in the IMPORTING parameters tab of the function module.

TP

Setting paper size for multi-tab numbers file?

i have a (currently) 3 tab spreadsheet that someone is working with me on. two of the tabs i print to 12 x 18 and one of the tabs i print to 8 x11.
right now i have to open inspector, set paper size to 8 x 11, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, open print dialog, select 8 x 11 printer, print the pages from this tab. then i go back to inspector, select 12 x 18, select next tab, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, open print dialog, select 12 x 18 printer, print the pages. then i select the next tab, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, and run a print to 12 x 18 paper.
this gets me all three documents if i didn't make a mistake somewhere and forget to select the correct printer or open inspector or whatever.
can someone tell me whether in numbers i can set a PAGE SIZE for a TAB (as i have done above) and have it stick or does the selection of a page size in numbers apply to the whole document? i keep sending this to my bookkeeper and getting it back and this is a whole lot of aggravation that is really messing up my workflow and there seems like i should be able to find a way to streamline this.
note: i am actually /receiving/ xls from my bookkeeper (and exporting to xls when i send it to her) and we also need to keep the tabs together b/c one tab is pulling info from the others but i am wondering if there could be some kind of workaround.
i'd like to ask her to just print the pages to pdf before she sends it to me but this is an added layer of work on her end that is not going to happen. also, i /can/ open in excel (i have excel for the mac) so if this works easier by printing from excel i will do that.
any experience with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS

hi Y. BIG time thank you for this. i was not aware this was such an issue. i definitely cannot have any ambiguities in my spreadsheet and customizing it in numbers is the whole reason i am spending this time formatting (i.e. to make it intuitive and visual).
that said, if accepting excel and then exporting to excel will cause problems i absolutely cannot have this.
can you help me a little more on what the problems are? i have already got a file with two tabs directly imported from Quickbooks (by my book keeper in excel) and a tab that she set up that pulls data from these tabs - and then i have MY tab that i have been customizing and proofing and fixing as i go along. more info on this work below.
are there commands i can run to clean this up?
what is considered OK to do in numbers if i am accepting excel (printing? adding new numerical entries)?
THANK YOU
background: right now i am /mostly/ doing formatting things like adding bold outlines or adding color or whatever but i have /also/ been dragging and dropping some rows to put them in a better place and fixing some cell sums that were either left out by my book keeper or which needed to be added to check THEIR work. are you saying that by doing this i am setting myself up for various formatting issues such as merged cells?
if so, once i finish the format of the spreadsheet and the tabs i can only exclusively open in numbers if this is necessary. are there some commands i can run to "clean up" issues? for instance can i go around the various tabs and unmerge cells to clean things up?
also, i definitely cannot split up tabs into individual documents as the customized spreadsheets are pulling numbers from a set of tabs that are quickbooks imports....

How to export of multi-sheet Numbers file to PDF in one go?

Attempts to export more than first sheet as a PDF fails. Export to Excel is sort of OK, but only with some loss of format.
PDF work-around involved saving the Numbers file with different file names for succeeding sheets, then eliminating earlier sheets before exporting as PDFs, and finally using Acrobat Pro to glue the whole boiling together. Very clumsy.
What am I doing wrong? And what should I do instead?

I would have thought that "Print Sheet(s)" would have done this but... Export to PDF does support multiple sheet "printing." Select the Sheets then Export > PDF...
