Extra Carriage Return While Using GUI_DOWNLOAD in ASC Mode

Dear All,
Happy New Year..First of All!
We are facing a problem in using FM GUI_DOWNLOAD for downloading internal table data in ASC Format. The FM seems to be adding one extra Line Feed / Carriage Return in the end of the file. We have debugged the code, and found that the internal table is populated correctly,but after the FM is called and the file is downloaded to the PC, we find that there is one extra blank line that is appended after the data. We have gone through some similar topics in SDN , some of them being:
GUI_DOWNLOAD : Extra Line
gui_download - last line
GUI_DOWNLOAD
We are already using the parameters TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS = 'X', TRUNC_TRAILING_BLANKS_EOL = 'X' and WRITE_LF_AFTER_LAST_LINE = ' ', with no effect. Also tried searching in OSS, but did not find a proper note. Can anybody please throw some light on this problem?
Thanks and Sincere Regards,
Amitabha

Hi...
If you can not ignore this problem. Because it download data line by line. First it set the cursor then download one record and so. For final record it it download the record then set the cursor to next line. Then it check that no more lines in the internal table. Then it exit from the FM.
Thank
Subhankar.

Blank spaces while using GUI_DOWNLOAD for Chinese characters

Hi,
While using GUI_DOWNLOAD for chinese characters I have used a code page option of 8300 for Chinese.
The file which is getting downloaded in a notepad has some Chinese characters coming under some headings.
After that columns other columns are getting shifted towards the right.
This is working correctly for English characters.
Can someone please help me.
Now I am using CL_GUI_FRONT_END_SERVICES=>GUI_DOWNLOAD.
What special options should I pass now.

Extra carriage returns in footnotes of exported RTF

All documents containing footnotes in Indesign are exported with extra hard returns after each footnote when exporting to Word .rtf.
I am using Indesign CS5 but this has always been the case since earlier versions of Indesign.
Does anyone know a way to avoid this or of a way to fix it afterwards in Word. Search end replace for double paragraph marks in Word doesn't seem to be working in footnotes.

The email is formatted poorly by the sender.
The screen width for a PC is min 640x480, which is large enough to display the email with the extar carriage returns on every line.
The Blackberry has a much smaller resolution, even with smaller text (which you could try but I wouldn't count on).
The BB removes extra CR/LF's (ie if you have three or four per line, it will only show one), but it isnt going to reformat the entire email.
Especially since the email is generally formatted for a reason.
The sender has not formatted the email (thatws an auto-reply email, right?) for small screens or mobile devices.
If you open the email in outlook and then reduce the window size to 1/4 or smaller than you will see the exact same thing on the Outlook email...
So, there is nothing you can do on the BB. Its the sender who needs to change their emails.

Manipulating excel file while using GUI_DOWNLOAD

hi all,
while using GUI_UPLOAD i want to
1) fix the width of the column of excel file
2) define the font of the data in excel file
3) change background color of the cells in excel file.
please suggest as to how can this be done?

using GUI_DOWNLOAD you can't change the data in excel sheet...if you want to do the things you need to use OLE concpets for downloading of data to Excel sheet wherein you can do most of the options excel can handle..
Check within SDN as there are blogs for downloading data to Excel sheet using OLE concepts..

Is there anything to be taken care of while using GUI_DOWNLOAD in ITS?

Hi All,
I have a requirement on which I am using GUI_DOWNLOAD for downloading a file into a network Drive.In the foreground I am executing using ITS.When I click on 'SUBMIT' button it goes to "Interpreter failed ...Internal error code: 0x2101".Till the point of GUI_DOWNLOAD its working fine.When I am executing from SAP system,its working fine.Once I execute from browser only problem comes.Have anybody faced a similiar situation and if so please help me.
Thanks in Advance,
Anjaly

Hi Anjaly,
this means that the template could not be found. I assume you are using the ITS 620, in the integrated ITS this error would result in an ABAP runtime error.
Ok, how to solve? Please examine the ITS trace files especially that one for the Bussiness HTML interpreter. Its is Agate<N>_sapjulep.trc.

Exception UNKNOWN_ERROR while using GUI_DOWNLOAD in POWL

Hi,
I am trying to use FM GUI_DOWNLOAD to download an internal table in POWL to an excel sheet.
Using GUI_DOWNLOAD I get an exception 6 = UNKNOWN_ERROR.
Can anyone help? Or should I be using another function module? If yes, which?
Cheers

HT1758 Can i connect my non apple laptop to my iMac and use the iMac as an extra/dual screen while using my laptop?

Got a new laptop from work, no choice on the type, but want to plug it's docking station into my iMac so I can use dual screens while using the laptop. Can I use the Ethernet port for this?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Target Display mode only supports Late 2009 and Mid 2010 27-inch iMacs, and Mid 2011 and newer iMacs to use them as external displays, but it only works over Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt, not Ethernet.
Your PC needs Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt (depending on your iMac) to be able to use your iMac as an external display, so it is probably that you cannot use the iMac as an external display. Instead, look for information in the Internet about VNC viewers that allow you to do that

Please reply:how to avoid extra trailing spaces while using cursor sharing

i am using cursor sharing with FORCE or SIMILAR.
what is the solution to avoid extra trailing spaces without any java code change.
do we have any option in oracle to avoid extra trailing spaces during the query processing ?
I am using Oracle 10g
CURSOR SHARING is a feature in which multiple sql statements
which are same will have a shared cursor (in the library cache) for an oracle session,
i.e, the first three steps of the sql processing (hard parse, soft parse, optimization)
will be done only the first time that kind of statement is executed.
There are two ways in which similar SQL statements with different condition values can be made to "SHARE" cursor during execution:
1. Writing SQLs with Bind Variables: SQLs having no hard coded literals in them
For e.g., the query below
SELECT node.emp_name AS configid
FROM emp node
WHERE emp_no = :1
AND dept_no =
DECODE (SUBSTR (:2, 1, 3),
:3, :4,
(SELECT MAX (dept_no)
FROM emp
WHERE emp_no = :5 AND dept_no <= :6)
AND node.dept_type = :7
ORDER BY node.emp_name
Here all the variables are dynamically bound during the execution. The ":X" represents BIND Variable and the actual values are bound to the SQL only at the 4th step of the execution of the SQL.
In applications: The queries written with "?" as bind variables will be converted into ":X" and are sqls with Bind Variables.
2. The CURSOR_SHARING parameter: Only Useful for SQL statements containing literals:
For eg., the query below:
SELECT node.emp_name AS configid
FROM emp node
WHERE emp_no = 'H200'
AND dept_no =
DECODE (SUBSTR (:1, 1, 3),
'PLN', :2,
(SELECT MAX (dept_no)
FROM emp
WHERE emp_no = :3 AND dept_no <= :4)
AND node.dept_type = :5
ORDER BY node.emp_name
In the query above, there are two hard coded literals H200 , PLN. In this case when the same SQL executed with different values like (H2003 , PLN), oracle will create a new cursor for this statement and all the first three steps ( hard & soft parse and optimization plan) needs to be done again.
This can be avoided by changing the CURSOR_SHARING parameter which can be set to any of three values:
1. EXACT: Causes the mechanism not be used, i.e. no cursor sharing for statements with different literals. This is the default value.
2. FORCE: Causes unconditional sharing of SQL statements that only differ in literals.
3. SIMILAR: Causes cursor sharing to take place when this is known not to have any impact on optimization.
So, FORCE and SIMILAR values of the parameter will be helping in cursor sharing and improve the performance of the SQLs having literals.
But here the problem arises if we use the FORCE and SIMILAR other than EXACT.
alter session set cursor_sharing ='EXACT'
select 1 from dual;
'1'
1
alter session set curson_sharing='FORCE'
select 2 from dual;
'2'
2
alter session set curson_sharing='SIMILAR'
select 3 from dual;
'3'
3
So, this will give extra trailing spaces in when we retrieve from java method and any
further java processing based on the hardcoded literal values will fail. this needs lot of
effort in remodifying the existing millions of lines of code.
My question is i have to use cursor sharing with FORCE or SIMILAR and can't we do the trimming
from the oracle query processing level ?
please help me on this ?

Why can't we use GUI_Download in background mode...........

Hi experts as per the requirement my program should run at specific time in background mode, it need to upload the Personal numbers from the input file and for those personal numbers extract the data from multiple tables. but this report shd run in background.
and download the output in the form of flat file.
as i'm running in background mode can't use the F.M GUI_Download and GUI_Upload.
can any one guide me how to solve this issue and why can't we use these F.M. if we can't use then what is the alternative to run in background mode.

A program that runs in background mode doesn't have any connection to a frontend. After all, you can schedule it to run at a time where your frontend computer is not running.
In this case you have to load your files on the application server (or a mount point) and use the FMs C13Z_FILE_DOWN(UP)LOAD_ASCII(BINARY)

HT3924 iTunes not working anymore while using screen in Target Mode

Hi, I use this feature a lot when working from home, as my company laptop is only 12.5" it's nice with the 27" screen. This has always worked out great, but recently (not sure if it started after Moutain Lion upgrade), I'm not anymore able to listen to my iTunes music (running in the background), when moving to "target display mode".
Immediately after pressing cmd+F2, and moving to external mode, the music starts skipping...
It happens with iTunes, Spotify, MPlayerX...
I tried to turn off "always put harddrives to sleep while possible" but this didn't help.
I tried to listen to music stored on different HDDs, didn't help.
Anyone found a fix, or need to wait for new OS update?
Thanks,
Seb

Hi, Hilary. The backlight in your Powerbook's display isn't working. That's most likely caused by an inverter failure, rather than a failure of the backlight itself (which is very rare). The inverter supplies power to the backlight, and sometimes it just fails. Repairing the hard drive won't fix it, and closing the display while loading pictures from a camera didn't cause it. It just failed, and now it needs to be replaced. Don't bother with any of the FireWire Target Disk Mode stuff you've been trying — just take the machine in for service.

Carriage Return using XSL

Hi,
I have an RTF template that contains <xsl:text> 
</xsl:text> in one of the form fields because I want to force a Carriage return in the output.
The form field looks something like:
<?when?>
Some text
<xsl:text> 
</xsl:text>
More text
<?end when?>
The resulting output is Some text 
 More text. What am I doing wrong ?
Thanks,
Pat

Hi Pat,
Hmmm..looks like the XMLP processor is not preserving the carriage return while processing the document. In fact i tried giving certain hexadecimal characters for achieving the carriage returns in the resulting document, but to of no use. It doesnot work!!!
I used the following in my RTF template:
<xsl:text>Hello </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ROWSET/ROW/ENAME"/>
<xsl:text> & Family,
</xsl:text>
<xsl:text>Your id is </xsl:text>
<xsl:value-of select="ROWSET/ROW/EMPNO"/>
XML
<ROWSET>
<ROW num="1">
<EMPNO>7839</EMPNO>
<ENAME>KING</ENAME>
</ROW>
<ROW num="2">
<EMPNO>7788</EMPNO>
<ENAME>SCOTT</ENAME>
</ROW>
</ROWSET>
Desired output:
Hello King & Family,
Your id is 7839
What is achieved using XMLP 5.5:
Hello KING& Family,
Your id is 7839
Which clearly shows that the XMLP processing is not preserving the carriage returns, special symbols etc.
Tim,
Do we have any solution to this issue in the upcoming releases of XMLP?
or is there any other way to achieve the functionality?
Please reply asap.
Thx,
Nitin

Default Carriage return in the last column when data is downloaded to Excel

Problem:
When you download data into Excel and if the last column of your excel is a numeric field, XMLP will add a carriage return (special character) to your numeric field. This feild will be considered as character field by excel.
Work Around:
When you build the template, create an empty column as your last column and leave E (or end-for-each) in that empty column.
Note:
If the last column is a character column then you do not have to do this.

I originally had that END:VCARD without any carriage return.
But I still get an extra carriage return at the end when the JSP renders to VCF
I'm using Tomcat running on Linux.
I found this, article which implies (but does not explicitly say) JSP in general adds a newline to the last line:
http://www.caucho.com/resin-3.0/jsp/faq.xtp (But its not tomcat either, so maybe this info is irrelevant).
Edited by: shogo2040 on Dec 22, 2008 3:31 PM - changed rendered to VCF from rendered to JSP

XSL mapping of ARTMAS IDoc - carriage returns and white space

Hi all. I have tried all sorts here and am completely stuck. I am mapping an article master ARTMAS IDoc using XSL mapping and an extra carriage return and white space characters are being added to the FIELD1 and FIELD2 fields of the E1BPE1MARAEXTRT segment and I don't know why! These fields contain all our bespoke field values joined together so they are 229 and 250 characters long respectively, which I think is related to the problem. The mapping program looks like this:
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="/">
<ARTMAS04>
<IDOC>
<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/EDI_DC40"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MATHEAD"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MARART"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MARAEXTRT"/>
<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MAKTRT"/>
<xsl:for-each select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MARCRT">
    <xsl:if test="(PLANT='D100') or (PLANT='D200') or (PLANT='D300')">

<xsl:copy-of select="//ARTMAS04/IDOC/E1BPE1MEANRT"/>
</IDOC>
</ARTMAS04>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
I have a test IDoc going through this and the first 3 characters of the FIELD1 are "BIK". If I look at the source of the XML file, the problem area looks like this:
<E1BPE1MARAEXTRT SEGMENT="1">

You can't really see it above, but there is a carriage return and 8 white spaces before the BIK. Where does this carriage return and white space come from?! Any help would be really appreciated - this is driving me crazy!
Many thanks,
Stuart Richards

Stuart,
I think I know the cause to your problem. I am not an XSLT programmer but based on searching this forum I found how I can acheive the carriage return at the end of my document. Your xsl statement is as follows:
<xsl:output method="xml" encoding="UTF-8" omit-xml-declaration="no" indent="yes"/>
Change the indent value from yes to no. This should remove the carraige return. Hope this works for you.
I actually need a carriage return and line feed on my document so I am still stuck. All I have acheived is the carraige return.
Thanks,
Jim
