Extract Excel Data to RT (perl)

Hi i am trying to extract some data from Excel and export into a perl program (Request Tracker). I am not sure what technologies i should use.
Eg. convert to xml? cvs? or to java? use JavaEE?
Please advice
Thanks

Also, modern versions of Excel will sav files in an xml format, so you could then go straight to perl for a completely java-free solution :)Doesn't even need to do that! ;-)

Is it possibke to extract import data from excel file not csv type

I am getting training from somebody, who is telling me the excel file has to be type csv only to extract and import the excel data for creating infoobjects, is that true.
Please kindly provide steps, if any one has steps to extract the excel data while creating info object.
I am going thru an excersise for creating info objects, but while brining the excel csv file data to info objects do i again need to create each field column and its attributes etc.
Thank you all for the helpful info.

Hi
If you want to load data from excel to BW(Info Objects or data source), then file should be in excel format. to import the data system directly import it into excel sheet(normal one)
to load the data you should have all values and attributes in your excel sheet which you have created in BW system.

How can I use Automator to extract specific Data from a text file?

I have several hundred text files that contain a bunch of information. I only need six values from each file and ideally I need them as columns in an excel file.
How can I use Automator to extract specific Data from the text files and either create a new text file or excel file with the info? I have looked all over but can't find a solution. If anyone could please help I would be eternally grateful!!! If there is another, better solution than automator, please let me know!
Example of File Contents:
Link Time =
DD/MMM/YYYY
Random
Text
161 179
bytes of CODE    memory (+                68 range fill )
16 789
bytes of DATA    memory (+    59 absolute )
1 875
bytes of XDATA   memory (+ 1 855 absolute )
90 783
bytes of FARCODE memory
What I would like to have as a final file:
EXCEL COLUMN1
Column 2
Column3
Column4
Column5
Column6
MM/DD/YYYY

90783
MM/DD/YYYY

Is this possible? I can't imagine having to go through each and every file one by one. Please help!!!

Hello
You may try the following AppleScript script. It will ask you to choose a root folder where to start searching for *.map files and then create a CSV file named "out.csv" on desktop which you may import to Excel.
set f to (choose folder with prompt "Choose the root folder to start searching")'s POSIX path
if f ends with "/" then set f to f's text 1 thru -2
do shell script "/usr/bin/perl -CSDA -w <<'EOF' - " & f's quoted form & " > ~/Desktop/out.csv
use strict;
use open IN => ':crlf';
chdir $ARGV[0] or die qq($!);
local $/ = qq(\\0);
my @ff = map {chomp; $_} qx(find . -type f -iname '*.map' -print0);
local $/ = qq(\\n);
#     CSV spec
#     - record separator is CRLF
#     - field separator is comma
#     - every field is quoted

Is it possible to Extract the Data from Website?

Dear Experts,
Is it possible to Extract the Data from Website and Upload it in the SAP Table?.It is very Urgent.Please help me.
Thanks & Regards,
Ashok.

Hi Friend,
Generaly if it is one time activity you can do it manually by copy paste in excel.
But if it is weekly or monthly activity then you have to ask website provide to provide data in excel or CSV file and upload it into SAP.
I have a situtation like this, and they (Rapaport price) provide it in CSV format with defined columns.
So it is better to raise the issue to website provider.

Hi
You can use TDMS file format to save the data. I have attached a reference Vi.
On button click you can log the data or remove the case structure and continuous log the complete acquisition data.

Extract Query Data to a Shared Location

Hi,
I need to extrcat BW query data to a shared location (e.g.,
server\folder\file) in the form of a flat file. I know how to extract the query data till application server. I can also do it directly using an APD. But I need to extract it on a daily basis and APD is not allowing to schedule it in the background. It allows only direct execution. Can anyone know how to do this.

Use RSCRM_BAPI and then schedule the job...I'm following the same method.

Excel Workbook with Excel Data Model stored on SharePoint - daily refresh

I'm not sure if this is exactly the right forum but I'm hoping that someone here can either answer or point me in the right direction.
I have an Excel Workbook with an Excel Data Model.
The Excel Data Model uses SQL to contact our data warehouse and pull through data into tables.
We are storing the Workbook on a SharePoint site and viewing it using Excel Services.
The data in our data warehouse is updated daily and so I would like to refresh the workbook daily and remove the option to refresh the data in the browser.
Is this possible with a workbook that has an Excel Data Model (I've seen lots of posts that relate to workbooks with connections to tabular models).
Thanks
Paul

Error while extracting the data in R/3 production system,

We got the following error while extracting the data in R/3 production system,

No Storage space available for extending the inter 44 R3 299
No storage space available for extending the inter R3 299

It´s very difficult to help you without knowing
- what is going to be transferred
- where you get this error
- system configuration
- actual memory usage
- operating system
- database and configuration etc. etc.etc. etc.
I suggest you open an OSS call and let the support have a look on your system. It´s much easier if one has system access to find out the cause for that problem.

Refresh Excel Data in OfficeControl

Hey,
I have seen a few posts about loading SAP data from an internal table and downloading to Excel. But is there a way to refresh the Excel data without downloading?
Scenario: User uploads Excel sheet into WD4A app. A button is pushed on the Web Dynpro application and the data is refreshed in the Excel sheet.
Thanks,
Kenneth

The OLE2 functions in ABAP (which would allow this tight integration) seem to use the GUI to serve the OLE2 requests -
[ABAP/4 OLE Automation Controller|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/print46c/en/data/pdf/bcfesde6/bcfesde6.pdf]
so I don't think you could use these.
However, the OfficeControl UI element should allow you some sort of control. Check the doco there - looks like you could do some pretty interesting things if you had a macro in your spreadsheet to allow you to do them!
Although from your question you seem more to want to be able to parse an Excel spreadsheet from a download and then regenerate it with some fields changed - probably more a question to throw open to the ABAP forum

Unable to extract the data from ECC 6.0 to PSA

Hello,
I'm trying to extract the data from ECC 6.0 data source name as 2LIS_11_VAHDR into BI 7.0
When i try to load Full Load into PSA , I'm getting following error message
Error Message: "DataSource 2LIS_11_VAHDR must be activated"
Actually the data source already active , I look at the datasource using T-code LBWE it is active.
In BI on datasource(2LIS_11_VAHDR) when i right click selected "Manage" system is giving throughing below error message
"Invalid DataStore object name /BIC/B0000043: Reason: No valid entry in table RSTS"
If anybody faced this error message please advise what i'm doing wrong?
Advance thanks

ECC 6.0 side
Delete the setup tables
Fill the data into setup tables
Schedule the job
I can see the data using RSA3 (2LIS_11_VAHDR) 1000 records
BI7.0(Service Pack 15)
Replicate the datasource in Production in Backgroud
Migrate Datasource 3.5 to 7.0 in Development
I did't migrate 3.5 to 7.0 in Production it's not allowing
When i try to schedule the InfoPakage it's giving error message "Data Source is not active"
I'm sure this problem relate to Data Source 3.5 to 7.0 convertion problem in production. In Development there is no problem because manually i convert the datasource 3.5 to 7.0

When I do this I get the DragEventArgs Data (the clipboard data) and it has the 20 supported formats I listed in the 1st post. From these formats #4 seemed like it could have some useful info.
WPF
<Window x:Class="PowerPointDropSlide.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
Title="MainWindow" Height="350" Width="525" AllowDrop="True" Drop="UIElement_OnDrop" DragOver="UIElement_OnDragOver">
<Grid HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch" Background="LightBlue">
<TextBlock Text="Drop something here!"/>
</Grid>
</Window>
Handlers:
public void UIElement_OnDragOver(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
public void UIElement_OnDrop(object sender, DragEventArgs e)
string[] supportedFormats = e.Data.GetFormats();
object pptSlidesPackage = e.Data.GetData("PowerPoint 14.0 Slides Package");
