Export to text removes trailing spaces in XI R2

I've found an article that talks about the problem of the export to text removing trailing spaces, but the article mentions that this is fixed in Crystal Reports XI with a newer version of u2ftext.dll to version 11.0.0.941.
[1218375 - Trailing spaces ignored when exporting to Text format|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_erq/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313338333333373335%7D.do]
I'm using Crystal Reports XI R2 and my u2ftext.dll version is already 11.5.11.1470.
I'm I missing something or is there another solution to the issue in XI R2?
Thanks,
Jeff

How to remove trailing space at the end of a song.

This is related to this thread: Shorten song length (remove trailing bars) in Garageband 10.0.1
I have also done some Googling and have found some links related to selecting and exporting regions, which I have tried, but this is what I noticed.
It does not work when I select certain instruments, eg Synthesizer - Soundscape - Subtle Shiftscape or Synthesizer - Lead - Screamlead. I believe that what is happening is that those sounds tend to have some additional length to it. No matter where I cut my region, the additional length still get added. I don't have that problem if I don't select those instruments.
Anybody has any ideas?

Are you using GB 10.0.2 as well?
I am using both - GarageBand 10.0.2 and GarageBand '11.
And if I deselect all regions, File - Add Region to loop library is of course greyed out. Is it possible to save multiple tracks as a loop?
No.
Yep, I've deselected all regions. Still no luck.
My answer above was in answer to your "This time GB felt I only needed the first 4 measures of the song, even though I defined an entire Region over the length of the song and selected everything with Ctrl-A..."
You should be able to export the complete song, if you deselect all regions, and select all of the song using the cycle region with "Export Cycle region only" enabled, or with "Export Cycle region only" disabled, nothing selected, and the end-of-song marker correctly set.
However, this will not get rid of the trailing empty bars.
Reimport the bounced song to a new Ringtone project and trim it and save it as a tone, or to a regular project and add it to the Loop Library.
Find the AIFF file of the loop in the Loop library - it will be installed in your User Library in your Home folder

Hi,
Its good that u pasted the complete log file. In your environment you have to run this upgrade tool only once from any of the middle tier.
And with respect to your error that u got in precheck is quite simple. All u have to do is just run this script from by connecting to portal schema using sqlplus.
Run dropupg.sql
Location-------- /raid/product/OraHome_1/upgrade/temp/portal/prechktmp/dropupg.sql
Later you re-run the upgrade tool and let me know the status.
Good luck

How to remove trailing spaces in SQL PLUS spool

Hi,
I've requirement to pull data from tables and I'm using sqlplus spool to automate data fetch from various tables:
I'm using the following script for the same :
set echo off
set feedback off
set pagesize 0
set linesize 2000
set heading on
set trimspool on
Spool table1.TXT;
prompt col1|col2|col3|col4|col5
select
LTRIM(RTRIM(col1))||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col2)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col3)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col4)) ||'|'||
LTRIM(RTRIM(col5)) ||'|'||
from TABLE1 ;
spool off
After using trimspool on option also I'm having trailing spaces issue how to fix it?
Thanks,
Mahender.

Hi,
do you need LTRIM/RTRIM? This is namely your problem. By using a function around your column Oracle reserves the maximum lenght for the column. So what do you get without those functions? Furthermore you are concatenating all the columns. This is also a function. For getting '|' in between columns you can also set a seperator by using
set colsep '|'Herald ten Dam

Crystal Reports 10 - Export to TEXT with Delimited Space Format

Hello,
I am new to Crystal reports, sorry if this is a really basic question. I am trying to create a report which I can export to a TXT file. The TXT file format will be delimted space (size 500 characters). I would like to know how I can use Crystal reports to fix the size of the fields.
For example field 1 is 22 characters, field 2 starts directly after field 1 and is 9 characters (9 spaces), field 3 is then 7 characters so an example of the output I need is:
1111111111111111111111 2222222
I will need to use a mixture of TEXT fields and database fields to create the report. Thefore is it possible to specify the length of a text file i.e. TEXT1 = 22?
I am new to Crystal so I hope there is a simple solution without the use of coding
Thanks,
Brett

You will have to force the fields to the length that you are looking for, as Crystal treats strings as variable length strings. So to force a character field to 20 characters, you'd do something like:
left({db.charfield} + ReplicateString(" ", 20), 20)
For a number, you could use either
ToText({db.numfield}, "0000000000")
or
right(ReplicateString(" ", 10) + ToText({db.numfield}, "0"), 10)
(for a 10 digit integer; change the format string in ToText for other numeric data types)
I suggest that it may be clearer and more accurate to create one formula field with the entire line formatted as needed, then just display that one field on the report.
HTH,
Carl

Export to Text format

When a report is exported to Text format, trailing spaces do not appear in the exported file.
How do you resolve this issue?
1. Create a report.
2. Include 3 fields
3. Export ->txt
After the end of 3rd field we require 200 spaces...any idea...

Try to insert a new formula after the third field like this
space(200)
or try to create a formula for the third field like this
+space(200)
and place this formula in the place of the third field and export to text file.

Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard Text Box Enter Space is Removed -- Help

Got a new computer at work with Adobe Acrobat 9 Standard and it is taking some getting use to (came from Acrobat 7 Professional).
I need some help with the text box tool. When I create a text box and use the enter key and click out of the text box the space is removed where I hit enter. I googled around and if I use cntrl and then hit enter the space will stay there. How do I get around this so I do not have to hold cntrl everytime. Plus if I go back into that text box and add another space it removes the space from before so I would have to add the spaces in again. I hope this is a setting I have messed up. It is quite annoying and hopefully someone can help me out.
I am on Windows 7 Professional if it matters.

I've reported this as a bug a number of times since Acrobat 9 was released and so far they have refused to fix it in Acrobat 9/10/11. I had never heard of the Ctrl+Enter workaround, so thanks for that.

Copy and Paste from Safari to MS Word Text Form Field adds a trailing space

I know this is just a minor issue, but an inconvenience for me nonetheless.
When I go to the same page and copy and paste the same text from Firefox, the trailing space is not added.
What I find puzzling is that when I paste the same copied text into notepad from Safari, it does not add the trailing space.
So it is likely an issue with MS Word's method of pasting text, but strange to me that it does not happen from Firefox.
Is there a way to inspect the exact contents of the clipboard to see if there are any differences?
I just did a little bit more testing, and found that Word only adds an trailing space when I paste into a "Text Form Field" from only Safari.
Maybe the solution is to stop using MS Word. (Ha, Ha)

OK, I think I found another way to describe my issue:
When I copy text from a webpage in Safari, some form of "meta-information", or formatting data, is kept, and when I paste into MS Word, the formatting from the webpage is retained. In my default setup of Firefox, this formatting meta-information is not retained, it only copies the plain-text.
So my question is actualy: How do I prevent Safari from retaining formatting data, and only copy the plain-text?
I have been testing some clipboard managers, and have yet to find one that will auto-filter out formatting data from text that I copy, but they can after interaction.
The other, current, method I have been using is to:
1. select and copy the text in Safari
2. paste text into notepad
3. select and copy text from notepad
4. paste de-formatted text into MS Word
Or in Firefox:
1. select and copy the text in Firefox
2. paste text into MS Word (no formatting retained)

Removing extra spaces from email attachment of text file

Hi All,
I am having a question in opening email attachment file in text mode.
Whenever I am trying to open a CSV file in text mode after each row it adds blank spaces. These blank spaces are to complete the 255 characters on each row I guess.
My client doesn't want these space. So can anybody tell how to remove those spaces?
<removed by moderator> response would be helpful.
Thanks and Regards
Nishad
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Apr 28, 2011 4:02 PM - priority normalized

Hi,
There is no solution for this as u know that the data which you r sending in csv its actually getting populated from an internal table.
You cannot make your internel table dynamic for this requirment.
It should have a fixed length. Now if the data is less then also the length.
So u have identified correct that because of 255 the blank space is population, nothing is in your hand.
U have to convince the client, to make them understand where is the limitation.
Thanks & Regards

XML leading trailing space in elements removal.

Hi,
I am getting an xml file like this.
<House>
<Refrigirator> Whirlpool </Refrigirator>
<WashingMachine> Samsung</WashingMachine>
<TV> Samsun TV </TV>
<cooler> L G </cooler>
</House>
I have to get the output with out trailing spaces in the XMl elements. No schema restrictions has to be applied on this xml file only either with XSLT/Xquery or any other which suits to this I have to use.
<House>
<Refrigirator>Whirlpool</Refrigirator>
<WashingMachine>Samsung</WashingMachine>
<TV>Samsun TV</TV>
<cooler>L G</cooler>
</House>
Thanks.
Edited by: user12679330 on Jul 13, 2011 12:41 AM

input xml is not enough to correct me
* <Washing Machine> -> <Washing_Machine>
* space in xmlelement
better to change the procedure of forming xml
but in you case
try something
with T as
(select xmltype(
'<House>
<Refrigirator> Whirlpool </Refrigirator>
<Washing_Machine> Samsung</Washing_Machine>
<TV> Samsun TV </TV>
<cooler> L G </cooler>
</House>') xml from dual)
select replace(replace(xml,'> ','>'),' <','<') from t
REPLACE(REPLACE(XML,'>','>'),'<','<')
<House>
<Refrigirator>Whirlpool</Refrigirator>
<Washing_Machine>Samsung</Washing_Machine>
<TV>Samsun TV</TV>

It is compressing the leading spaces but there is a space between the field and full stop.
Eg: if G_S_DATA-SAL = 144.00 the ouptut is displayed as 144.00 . (space between the amount and full stop).
How can I remove this space?

I want to remove Trailing zeros from a charecter value

Hello ,
          i want to remove trailing zeros for a prticular value.Following is my code :
DATA: V_FLOAT TYPE F VALUE '4.8240000000000000E+03',
           V_CHAR(25) ,
           P10_4(10) TYPE P DECIMALS 4.
CALL FUNCTION 'CEVA_CONVERT_FLOAT_TO_CHAR'
EXPORTING
FLOAT_IMP = V_FLOAT
FORMAT_IMP = P10_4
ROUND_IMP = ' '
IMPORTING
CHAR_EXP = V_CHAR.
SHIFT V_CHAR RIGHT DELETING TRAILING '0'.
WRITE : V_CHAR ."NO-ZERO.
<u><b>Output:</b></u>
if we pass the value '1.3000000000000000E+01' it should be 13.0
ex2: '1.3400000000000000E+01' it should be 13.4
ex3:'4.8240000000000000E+03' it should be 4824
is there any way to get the solution without functional module. If so Please tell me with code.

hi
u can do it in number of ways.
Use TCODE SU3
Select default tab and select radio button 123467.89 in decimal notation and save it.
or u can try :
if you want to do this through ABAP program.
1. to delete trailing spaces.
SHIFT <V_VARIABLE> RIGHT DELETING TRAILING '0'.
to delete leading zeroes,
SHIFT <VARIABLE_NAME> LEFT DELETING LEADING '0'.
only for one abap program, u can use set country command
for all programs :
sap menu>system->go to user profil->own data>default --> and choose ur format.
hope this helps u.

Gui_download issue - trailing spaces getting truncated for fixed length fil

Hi All,
I have a requirement where I need to download an internal table as a fixed length file.
The code is as follows:
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
EXPORTING
BIN_FILESIZE =
FILENAME = L_FILE
FILETYPE = 'ASC'
APPEND = 'X'
WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR = ' '
HEADER = '00'
TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS = ' '
WRITE_LF = ' '
COL_SELECT = ' '
COL_SELECT_MASK = ' '
DAT_MODE = ' '
IMPORTING
FILELENGTH =
TABLES
DATA_TAB = IT_TEXT
EXCEPTIONS
FILE_WRITE_ERROR = 1
NO_BATCH = 2
GUI_REFUSE_FILETRANSFER = 3
INVALID_TYPE = 4
NO_AUTHORITY = 5
UNKNOWN_ERROR = 6
HEADER_NOT_ALLOWED = 7
Each row in the internal table IT_TEXT is 242 chars long.
The FM is truncatinf the trailing blanks on the file. How do I get the FM to not truncate the trailing blanks in each row?
My internal table has multiple rows and the number of rows on the table should be same as the number of rows on the downloaded file.
I tried setting the WRITE_LF parameter to space.
In this case, the trailing spaces are not truncated(which is as per my requirement), BUT all the rows in the internal table appear in a single line on the downloaded file instead of multiple rows.
I also tried setting the TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS field to space but that does not work either. Spaces at the end of the row are still truncated.
so the requirement is: the spaces at the end of each row should not be truncated and
each row on the internal table should have a corresponding row on the downloaded file.
(it is a fixed length file)
I also tried using the following code
class cl_abap_char_utilities definition load.
DATA: BEGIN OF IT_TEXT OCCURS 0,
       TEXT(242) TYPE C,
       cr_lf TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf,
      END OF IT_TEXT.
when i compile, i get the following error
The type "CL_ABAP_CHAR_UTILITIES" is unknown.
Im using R/3 4.6C. Could this be a problem?
Please suggest a solution for this problem.
Thanks!
