Exporting to a CSV format

We are using Discoverer 10.1.2.45.46c.
I have a user who received a new pc. When she exports a numeric field to a csv format, the decimal points (.) in the numeric field get converted to a comma (,) and will create new columns if that file is imported to excel format.
I assume there is a pc settiong to counteract this, but have not found it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure it must be a setting and I would have thought it would be n the Disco server if Plus or Viewer but as it sounds like it's just for this user I would have thought it was a setting on the User's PC (or registry).
Also, one thing just occurred to me. Is this Excel 2007? I would think that Disco works fine by now with Excel 2007 but haven't seen any docs on it. I'm wondering since it's a new PC if this user is the only one with Excel 2007?
Finally, have you tried export by:
1. the Excel button
2. the file -> export option to CSV
You could always try an export in HTML format and then read that file in where it should convert.
I realize these are all kludges for now but all I think of to then check Metalink to see if it's a known feature with your setup.

There is a workaround to move from 1.5 version to the older 1.4 version. But this could be specific to the browser setting the JRE version.
Excerpts from sun docs:
However, a user can still run older versions. To do so, launch the Java Plug-in Control Panel for the older version, then (re)select the browser in the Browser tab.
Example:
Assume you are running on Microsoft Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer, have first installed version 1.4.2, then version 5.0, and you want to run 1.4.2.
Go to the j2re1.4.2\bin directory where JRE 1.4.2 was installed. On a Windows default installation, this would be here: C:\Program Files\Java\j2re1.4.2\bin
Double-click the jpicpl32.exe file located there. It will launch the control panel for 1.4.2.
Select the Browser tab. Microsoft Internet Explorer might still appear to be set (checked). However, when 5.0 was installed, the registration of the 1.4.2 JRE with Internet Explorer was overwritten by the 5.0 JRE.
If Microsoft Internet Explorer is shown as checked, uncheck it and click Apply. You will see a confirmation dialog stating that browser settings have changed.
Check Microsoft Internet Explorer and click Apply. You should see a confirmation dialog.
Restart the browser. It should now use the 1.4.2 JRE for conventional APPLET tags.
Details are here
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/deployment/deployment-guide/jcp.html
My system (Windows XP) has the version 1.5_09 set as the default. However i just installed JRE 1.5_06 and would like to revert back to _06 as the default JRE..
Will update if i find more information

How to export report IN CSV format through JAVA.

how to export report in csv format.when try to export in csv format.its exporting into csv but report not containing column heading , report heading and it showing all the data in a single line.we have integrated the reports with java.

Use a Java API which can create PDF files based on some collection of plain vanilla Java objects (List, String, Number, etc).
Google can find them all. Just feed it with something like "Java PDF API" or so. A commonly used one is iText.
That said, when talking about this in JSP context, ensure that you do NOT write raw Java code in JSP files using scriptlets. Raw Java code belongs in Java classes. In such case you need a Servlet. In JSP just use taglibs and EL to interact with backend Java code and data. Scriptlets are discouraged since over a decade.

Problem in exporting report in CSV format

Hi All,
I am using Crystal Reports. Following are details about it:
CR Developer
Product 8.5.0.217
*_Problem that I am facing:__*_
I can create report in .rpt format, it is working fine here. But while trying to export this report in CSV format, it gives report that doesn't contain any information.
Is it because I am missing something or it is a known issue?
Thanks and Regards,
Anand

Hi,
I too am facing the same problem.
The report was made in 8.5. I have exported the report & opened it in Crystal report 12.
I can export to PDF, RTF, DOC & Tab separated Test.
However when I export this report in .csv (legacy mode) I just get the header & when I export it in .csv (Standard) I get a blanck .csv file.
I have checked 'Isolate Report/Page sections' and 'Isolate Group sections'. Still no data in the report.
refreshed it too.
I contains sub reports, but not in the page header & footer (I think) & it does not seem to have cross tabs & OLAP grids.
Any help is appreciated.

Customize the Export option as ONLY in CSV format

I designed the detail report which has 17585 rows and 52 columns, If I export the report in excel its taking long to download (7-10 Mins 148 MB Size with all formatting properties), where as in DATA CSV format its taking less than a min and the file size is 4.4 MB.
Is there is any option where I can only customize the Export option as CSV format. Also my report contains Narrative view for the Heading, Can I add the Export link some where on the Narrative view that is in CSV format.
Please help me out with this issue.
Thanks

I'm trying to find out how to export my apple contacts to the Salesforce software and they need to be in a csv format and I don't know if this is possible and how to do it if it is?

I think there are third-party programs which will do that, but you can also do it with Automator:
See the links in my post, here: https://discussions.apple.com/message/22390873#22390873
The file or clipboard contents will be in Tab Separated vars, so you'll have to open with a spreadsheet program and save as Comma Separated Vars format.

EXPORT to text or CSV format from a form

Dear all,
Could you please help me to export the data from my form to a text file or to a csv format. I am very new to forms.
i need to export the data from the oracle form to a text file or CSV file format.
I had created form named as form1.
In form1 i have a block named as block1. In this block i have 4fields as field1, field2, field3, field4. using a tabe1 which has the same 4fields.
This form is in tabular form.
Example:
In the form i have data like as below and i got this data from table1. I used a execute query to get the data from the table into this form.
field1 field2 field3 field4
raj 1234 abc 510
dil 777 hi 787
Now my requirement is i need to export this data into a file, when i click on a button(Export) it has to browse for a folder on my desktop and i have to name the filename to save the data.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

This should be almost same as in your previous task for import data.
Try this:
DECLARE
   v_file_name   VARCHAR2 (100);
   v_file        client_text_io.file_type;
   v_delimiter VARCHAR2(1) := ',';
BEGIN
   v_file_name := webutil_file.file_save_dialog;
   v_file := client_text_io.fopen (v_file_name, 'w');
   GO_BLOCK ('block1');
   FIRST_RECORD;
   LOOP
        client_text_io.PUT_LINE(v_file, :block1.field1||v_delimiter||:BLOCK1.field2||v_delimiter||:BLOCK1.field3||v_delimiter||:BLOCK1.field4);
    IF :SYSTEM.LAST_RECORD = 'TRUE' THEN
         EXIT;
    END IF;
    NEXT_RECORD;
   END LOOP;
   client_text_io.fclose (v_file);
END;

Exporting report as PDF and CSV formats same time with out executing DB query twice

Post Author: cpriyanka
CA Forum: Exporting
I am using Crystal Report 9.0 version and Java.
I am getting "PrintOutputController" from "ReportClientDocument"
And then by calling export(ReportExportFormat.PDF) generating PDF format report.
Now I need to generate both PDF and CSV format files same time. How can it be done?
My understanding is when we call "export" it does the DB query execution and other functionality.
In that case, if I call "export" two times with two different formats, then DB query will be executed twice and that takes lot of time.
To avoid, is there a way I can all some API so DB query executed once, but I can export report in to multiple formats?
I appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Hello,
Are you using the "pull" or "push" method for your crystal reports? If you are using the "pull" method (the report itself executes the sql) then I believe there is no way around having the query execute twice since it is fired off each time you open and export the report.
If you use the "push" method, however, then you can just create the recordset/dataset and then set the datasouce once for the report.
Here's a broad overview of push and pull though the Crystal Report Viewer is used. The viewer may or may not be applicable in your case:

CR4E is bundled with RAD 7...actually to be clear it is a version of CR4E Professional. Users of RAD 7 will also get a dev/test license of CR Server as well as number of additional features to support developing applications against their BusinessObjects Enterprise or Crystal Reports Server systems. For more information regarding the RAD 7 launch you can read the press release here:<a href="http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/061205/20061205005363.html?.v=1">http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/061205/20061205005363.html?.v=1</a> I am hoping to do a webinar in January highlighting a number of the new features available with the IBM Rational Application Developer integration.As for RAD 6 support, unfortunately the CR4E toolkit does require Eclipse 3.2 support so it will not work with RAD 6.

How can I export the universe to CSV format in Rational (java)

How can I export the universe to CSV format in Rational ,please give me one demo .thanks!!

There's no direct access to an Universe from Java - Universes do have an SDK, but it's COM-based.
If what you want is to retrieve data from the Universe, what you can do is create a Web Intelligence document reporting off that Universe, create a Query with the data you want from the Universe, then use the ReportEngine (REBean) SDK to retrieve the ResultSet from the Query - note that there's no CSV export option, so you'd have to walk through the ResultSet and write to an CSV yourself.

Help exporting in csv format

Post Author: Vivek Sharma
CA Forum: Exporting
Hello All,
Version of Crystal Reports: 11.0.0.1282
Wanted to find out if it is possible to export data from a main report and subreport together in csv format? So far if I export in csv format it only exports data from main report and not from subreport.
Thanks,Vivek

Daniel and Atul highlight the two different kinds of data out processes that Essbase supports: targeted exports of selected parts of the database and full backup/migration-ready exports.
You didn't state what you were trying to do, but you will want to follow one or the other approach, depending on need. I wouldn't, for instance, use a targetted export to write out the entire db -- it would be very slow (to put it mildly). By the same token, writing out the entire db to a comma delimted columnar file to get 50 records would be a bit of a time waster, too.
