Exporting Tabular Form to Excel

Hi all,
i create a tabular form on a table and i update only one field that can assume value of Y and N so i use a LOV with definition Si;Y,No;N
my need is to export this in excel ( CSV ) but this error messages are raised:
ORA-06550: line 1, column 49: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "," when expecting one of the following: := . ( @ % ; The symbol ":= was inserted before "," to continue.
ERR-1000 Unable to determine LOV from "declare function x return varchar2 is begin Si;Y,No;N return null; end; begin wwv_flow_utilities.g_query := x; end;".
report error:
ORA-20001: Error fetching column value: ORA-20001: Query must begin with SELECT or WITHI also exclude the field from export but nothing change.
Thanks for any help or suggestions.
Alex

Hi all,
i find this solution by myself :
- in the Colum Attributes -> Tabular Form Element
- set Display As -> Select List (query based LOV)
- in List of value -> List of value definition i use this query
select 'Yes' display_value, 'Y' return_value from dual
union
select 'No' display_value, 'N' return_value from dualand the update is working
and the export is working
Thanks to all

Decimal places when exporting HFM form to Excel

Hi All,
We are on HFM 9.3.1.3.
From the web, when we export a data form to Excel, we lose the decimal places.
In our data form we use 3 decimal places, however all exports to Excel deafult to 0 decimal places. We can reproduce in Excel 2003 and 2007.
Is there a setting we can change so that an export to Excel picks up the decimal places used in the data form?
Thanks for your help.
Seb

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I just checked and both settings are the same:
decimal separator is a . in the server's regional settings and user preferences.
I have tried changing the regional settings to no avail.
The strange thing is that if I connect from my laptop to another 9.3.1 environment then I can export to excel with the correct decimal places.
I'd say this is definitely an environment issue.
Thanks again for your help.

Export tabular form contents to javascript array

How is it possible to export the contents of a tabular form to an javascript or a visual basic script array?

If FOO is one of the column headers in the tabular form
var th=html_GetElement('FOO'); // Gets the DOM node for the TH
var t=html_CascadeUpTill(th,'TABLE'); // Gets the DOM node for the TABLE
for (var j=1;j<t.rows.length;j++) {
var l_row=t.rows[j];
for (var k=0;k<l_rows.cells.length;k++) {
// Do whatever with the TD node at l_row.cells[k]
}

Exporting a data form to Excel

When exporting a data form to excel, if any of the columns are read only the user is only getting the column headers, not the rows and no data. The export works correctly when all the columns are write. Has anyone had this issue before? We are version 11.1.1
Thanks,

May not help but on 9.3.1 I don't have this problem.
Log in as a user with restrictive rights
Go to a read-only form
File/Spreadsheet Export
Open Excel and all columns are available

Export data on pdf-form to Excel

I would need help for exporting data from pdf-form to Execl spreadsheet
the basic idea is that a pdf-form would be the user interface to collect the data with text boxes / drop-downs (such as "Vendor", "Purchase order number", "Date", "Text" etc.) and after the data is filled on the pdf-form it would be easily exported (with button?) to one certain Excel -file.
The Excel-file should have similarly named colums and the data from pdf-form would be exported always to the next empty row.
PDF FORM
Excel -spreadsheet

Thanks but this is not quite what I was looking for
The idea was that the user would fill-in the data on the pdf -form and from there this data would be exported to one named Excel-file ( = data exported always to same Excel - file / to the next empty row)
So this Excel -file would act as a summary file / database from where the collected data could be easily sorted etc.
Another issue is that I'm looking for easy solution for the exporting fuction (e.g. button + java script) so that also the "dummy users" could operate this

Export data from forms to excel

HI
In my application im trying to export data from forms to excel.Everything works fine.First of all im using get_file_name for selecttion of file and passing it to ole2 package as follows
FILENAME := GET_FILE_NAME(File_Filter=> 'XLS Files (*.xls)|*.xls|',dialog_type=>SAVE_FILE);
     ARGS:=OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
     oLE2.ADD_ARG(ARGS,Filename);
     OLE2.INVOKE(WORKSHEET,'SAVEAS',ARGS);
The problem is if i select an existing file the get_file_name itself raises one message ".....file already exists Replace an existing file?"
Similarly the excel also also raises the same message "".....file already exists Replace an existing file?".I want to suppress atleast one of them? Could anyone help for this problem?
appreciate ur help
THANKS

Looks like...
ole2.set_property( ex_app, 'DisplayAlerts', false );
where "ex_app" variable Excel Application -
     ex_app:=     ole2.create_obj('Excel.Application');
and more Question:
When i close excel app - in process viewer i see "excel.exe"
ole2.release_obj don't work :(

Exporting new form responses to existing master Excel sheet?

Hello,
As we receive responses to our .pdf form each day, we would like to export the responses to a running master Excel spreadsheet. Is there a way to export the form data from new .pdf responses without having to over-write the master Excel sheet?
The master Excel sheet data will be connected to a series of pivot tables which we'd like to refresh once we import new data.
I greatly appreciate your help. Thanks kindly.

Hi,
Not in front of the system at the moment, but when you click on Local File, there is an option called Unformatted if i am right (the first one) select that & then save it in .txt format & later open in Excel, it should maintain the formatting.
Check & revert if it solves the issue.

Vivek

Export data to MS Excel in Adobe interactive form

Hello Experts,
I am using Webdynpro Java and ALCD 8.2. Can anyone help me out with functionality of Exporting adobe form data to excel file.
Thanks in advance,
Swami

Hi Swami,
When you say exporting data to a excel spread sheet.
Does that mean once the form is generated then user should able to export to excel, if so below is the link for that.
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/709565?tstart=1
if its like for an interactive forms where user submits data the on submit event if you want to publish the form data to a spread sheet, I believ there should be a lot of posts on generating CSV files from ABAP code. this is also possible from WDJ provided if you have the respective jar files (on submit even, read data from the context, process to required format, call the excel API and write to it.)
If from ABAP handler the post from the other blogger here might help.
does this help, let me know if you are looking for something more specific.
Cheers,
Sai

Export multiple forms to xml/excel - field headings are missing

I have created a dynamic flow multiple page form in Livecycle. When I first tested the form I would export -> multiple forms to a spreadsheet -> an xml file that I would then open in excel. This worked great and the field headings showed at the top.
I did some edits to my form and now when I run the export to xml and then open in excel, the field headings are gone. What controls this variable, does anyone know how I can correct this?
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
The heading are in the table pt_fcat - you don't seem to be passing that in form....
PERFORM setup_and_display_alv_ver2
USING
it_out_alvp "Parameter structure
it_output[] "Internal Data table(header table)
it_output[]. "Dummy table for Hierarchical ALV!!(item table)
which I guessing in in one of the includes?
Saying that the extract pof code does not show where you are calling form it_out_alv_fieldcat_before ...which populates the headings...
Regards
Stu
