Exporting form data to excel help

Hi there,
I have created an interactive form using Livecycle Designer that comes with Adobe 9 Pro. Forms will be download from a website, completed and emailed back to me. I'm having trouble trying to export the data to excel. Whilst it lets me export data to excel it does not appear in the logical order as it is on the form. I'm not sure how to fix this and/or if its possible to only have certain fields displayed in excel?
Is it also possible to automate the process so that data in completed forms that i save will update the inforamtion in excel?
Any help greatly appreciated, I'm new to forms.
Windows XP
Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro
Microsoft Excel 2003
Thanks,
Ken

You probably need to ask in the LiveCycle forum since this is a Designer issue I think. If you are doing the export from Acrobat, then list the steps you are using. However, the field order and such are going to be set by Designer.

Exporting forms data to Excel Acrobat X

It was a snap to export data to Excel and create reports from PDF forms in Acrobat 9, but I can't find the functionality in Acrobat X. Where is the feature hidden?
Thanks!

Does this work in both STANDARD and PRO? Standard offers that feature, but I am only seeing a summary of the data files (tiles of the documents) instead of a file of the actual merged data like I would normally see.

How can i export the data to excel which has 2 tables with same number of columns & column names?

Hi everyone, again landed up with a problem.
After trying a lot to do it myself, finally decided to post here..
I have created a form in form builder 6i, in which on clicking a button the data gets exported to excel sheet.
It is working fine with a single table. The problem now is that i am unable to do the same with 2 tables.
Because both the tables have same number of columns & column names.
Below are 2 tables with column names:
Table-1 (MONTHLY_PART_1)
Table-2 (MONTHLY_PART_2)
SL_NO
SL_NO
COMP
COMP
DUE_DATE
DUE_DATE
U-1
U-1
U-2
U-2
U-4
U-4
U-20
U-20
U-25
U-25
Since both the tables have same column names, I'm getting the following error :
Error 402 at line 103, column 4
alias required in SELECT list of cursor to avoid duplicate column names.
So How can i export the data to excel which has 2 tables with same number of columns & column names?
Should i paste the code? Should i post this query in 'SQL and PL/SQL' Forum?
Help me with this please.
Thank You.

You'll have to *alias* your columns, not prefix it with the table names:

What's the best way to export UTF8 data into Excel?

Hi,
Database charterer set is UTF8
     PARAMETER     VALUE
1     NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET UTF8
2     NLS_CHARACTERSET     UTF8
My requirement is that I want to export oracle data into excel file by using UTL_FILE oracle supplied package.
But while writing data into excel files it’s looses in UTF8 encoding and writes some garbage data into file.
I am very much sure that while retrieving the data form database it is perfectly encoded with UTF8, but after data is written to the file it eats the UTF encoding resulting into some garbage data.
e.g.
I am retrieving this filed from database which is UTF8 encoded in DB “Langäcker 55” but when it is written into excel it becomes “LangÃ¤cker 55”.
Is Oracle UTL_FILE eating the UTF8 encoding while writing into file? if yes, is there utility which can help me to remain the UTF8 encoding as it is while writing in to excel file? Is there anythingi can do in Oracle to get this done?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Santosh

Until now I have not found anyone who could write real Excel files (MS binary format) in PL/SQL. So I assume that you write your data in strings separated by a character like ; or |, aka CSV.
Try to open your file with 'wb' (write binary) instead of 'w' and then use
-- write data
utl_file.put_raw(v_file,utl_raw.cast_to_raw(<your data>));
--write remaining data
utl_file.fflush(v_file);
--close the file
utl_file.fclose(v_file);Regards

"Starting in Excel 2007, the "Big Grid" increases the maximum number of rows per worksheet from 65,536 to over 1 million, and the number of columns from 256 (IV) to 16,384 (XFD). "

Copy your jxl.jar and open it with winzip. See if there is Workbook.class file inside it in the folder jxl.
Try to download jxl.jar from this link

How we export report data into excel in report 10g

We can use TEXT_IO Package

Reg: Exporting the data into excel in ADF 11g application.

Hi All,
We have developed an application in ADF 11g which retrieves the data from database in the form of table. Now we have a requirement to export that data into an excel sheet.

Hi Harsha,
you can use <af:exportCollectionActionListener /> component to do that. Set the exportedId property to point to of the table. You have options to export all rows or only selected rows.
<af:commandToolbarButton text="Export All Rows to Excel" immediate="true"

Javascript for exporting form-data from spawned pages in csv-table

Hello,
I need your help with a problem concerning acrobat.
I created a form. The user can spawn new pages from a template.
The fields have the format Pn.templatename.fieldname, for example: P0.form.kosten1
The user fills the form, saves the file and sends it to me.
Now I have to get a CSV- or Excel-Table from this Data.
The Export-Function doesn't work, because of the different fieldnames.
Does Javascript work?
Perhaps I can create a 2-dimensional array and then write it to a csv-file??
Has anyone a good Idea?
Thank you for helping.
Many greetings,
Thomas

The only way I've found to do this is to open the form in Acrobat, click Forms, mouse over Manage Form Data, then click Export Data. Your only options are to save as .xml or .xdp. I saved my data as .xml. I was then able to import the .xml file into excel by clicking Data, mousing over xml, clicking Import... and browsing to the Acrobat generated .xml file. I know this is convoluted but it's the only way I've found to get the data into a spreadsheet. Acrobat exports the data as filename_data.xml, i.e. a form named contacts will export it's data as contacts_data.xml. Be aware, I've only tested this on a form that had a table in it and nothing else. If your table is part of a form with other fields in it I have no idea how the other data will look after exporting.

Not able to export context data to excel in NWDS 7.1

Hi all,
We have a requirement wherein I need to export data from a local context node to an excel file. I am using jxl.jar for this purpose.
I am using a FileDownload UI element to generate the excel. I am working with NWDS 7.1 EhP1.
I am using the following code :
public void excel_download( )
     IWDCachedWebResource cachedExcelResource = null;
     String fileName = "TestExcel.xls";
     File f = new File(fileName);
     WritableWorkbook workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(f);
     FileInputStream excelCSVFile = new FileInputStream(f);
     cachedExcelResource =getCachedWebResource(excelCSVFile,fileName,WDWebResourceType.getWebResourceType("xls","application/ms-excel"));
     wdContext.currentContextElement().setResource(cachedExcelResource);
     workbook.close();
     f.delete();
private IWDCachedWebResource getCachedWebResource(InputStream file, String name, WDWebResourceType type)
     IWDCachedWebResource cachedWebResource = null;
     if (file != null)
          cachedWebResource = WDWebResource.getWebResource(file, type);
          cachedWebResource.setResourceName(name);
     return cachedWebResource;
When I try to download the data to excel I am getting the following error:
you must flush before accessing the resource content
But when I deploy the application using NWDS2004s it works perfectly.
Can anyone shed some light on why this may be happening? Am I missing something? Has it got anything to do with the NWDS version?
Thanks and Regards,
Saurabh

Hi Saurabh,
      The above code is deprecated :-
Replace that with this piece of code -->
File f = new File(fileName);
WritableWorkbook workbook = Workbook.createWorkbook(f);
FileInputStream excelCSVFile = new FileInputStream(f);
IWDResource cachedExcelResource = WDResourceFactory.createCachedResource(excelCSVFile, "FileName.xls", WDWebResourceType.XLS, false);
wdContext.currentContextElement().setResource(cachedExcelResource);
cachedExcelResource.getUrl(WDFileDownloadBehaviour.ALLOW_SAVE.ordinal());
WDFileDownloadBehaviour --> Will determine how you would like to download your file.
Hope this helps !!!
Cheers,
Brian.

Export Query Data to Excel

Hey guys, I have a cfm page that I am using to query data, and the result set is displayed on the same page when a user clicks submit.
My question is, I would like to create a clickable icon where, after a user runs the query and the data table displays, I want the user to be able to click a little Excel icon that will allow them to download the data in Excel.
So, a user clicks on a little icon somewhere on the page and IE or Firefox or whatever pops up a little dialog box asking them if they want to OPEN or SAVE the file results.xls. How can I do this?
Here is my current code, but where do I implement the cfoutput stuff to export? On the same page?
<cfquery name="qActivity" datasource="khamp" result="resultInfo">
     SELECT KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ACCOUNT, KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.DES1, KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ENTITY,
    SUM (KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.AMOUNT) AS "TotalAmt"
     FROM KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT, KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL
    WHERE 0=0
    <cfif Form.Entity IS NOT "">
          AND KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ENTITY = '#Form.Entity#'
     </cfif>
    AND KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ACCTG_DATE <= '#Form.asofday#-#Form.asofmonth#-#Form.asofyear#'
    <cfif Form.accountnum IS NOT "">
    AND KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT = '#Form.accountnum#'
    </cfif>
    AND KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT=KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ACCOUNT
    GROUP BY
KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT,
KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ACCOUNT,
KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.DES1,
KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.ENTITY
     HAVING SUM(KHAMELEON.GL_DETAIL.AMOUNT)<>0
     ORDER BY KHAMELEON.GL_ACCOUNT.ACCOUNT ASC
     </cfquery>
<cfif resultInfo.Recordcount eq 0>
    No Records Match the Search Criteria.
    <cfelse>
    <hr/>
    <br/>
    <table border="1" class="displaytable">

        <tr>
           <th>Account</th>
           <th>Description</th>
           <th>Entity</th>
           <th>Book 1</th>
      </tr>

      <cfoutput query="qActivity">
      <tr>
        <td>#qActivity.ACCOUNT#</td>
        <td>#qActivity.DES1#</td>
        <td>#qActivity.ENTITY#</td>
        <td style="text-align:right">#NumberFormat('#qActivity.TotalAmt#', "_(999,999,999.99)")#</td>
      </tr>
      </cfoutput>
I got the following code off of a thread in the forum, but it trys to download the excel file as soon as the query is run (the excel download doesn't work though, it trys to download the actual cfm page instead):
<cfheader name="Content-Disposition"
value="inline; filename=tb.xls">
<cfcontent type="application/vnd.ms-excel">
<table border="2">
<tr>
<td> Account </td><td> Description </td><td> Entity </td><td> Book1 </td>
</tr>
<cfoutput query="qActivity">
<tr>
<td>#qActivity.ACCOUNT#</td><td>#qActivity.DES1#</td><td>#qActivity.ENTITY#</td><td>#NumberFormat('#qActivity.TotalAmt#', "_(999,999,999.99)")#</td>
</tr>
</cfoutput>
</table>
</cfcontent>
Thanks guysq

To actually get the data into excel, google "cold fusion excel poi" and look for Ben Nadel's cfc. Otherwise you might have issues with Office 2007.
For the icon or whatever, make your query a session variable. Then have the icon link to either a self closing popup or a very small iframe that exports the query to an excel file and then uses cfcontent to download it to the user.

Exporting the data to EXCEL 2003 in PCUI

Hi all,
I am using PCUI for CRM 5.0. In that I have a export as a standard button. It exports data in CSV format to excel. I created a XML template and tried to export the data in a well formatted way. But the data that is getting exported in CSV format is not getting exported when I choose the XML template. Only field names are getting displayed.
Also I am not getting the XML option in EXCEL that will be normally there in 2003 version.
What might be the reason?
Please help me in this regard.
Thanks,
Purushothaman.
