Generate and disaply excel file as iview in ep6?

Hello, everybody.
I built a iView in EP5 that can generate and display excel file on the run-time. I used contecttype in httpservletresponse to set the content type to excel so the browser will see the data as excel.
But it looks like the setcontenttype for httpservletresponse does not work anymore in EP6, does anybody know how to make the broswer "sees" the data as an excel file in EP6?
I am using EP6 SP9

Hi Gary,
you definitely can set the content type if you call an AbstractPortalComponent and set all things within method doOnNodeReady (search for both terms on SDN forums, you'll find a heap of hints).
In addition, I don't know if you create "real" Excel data or use the html trick. If you don't know the latter, see Export Portal data to Excel
Hope it helps

Generate and display excel file

Hi guys,
Is there a way to generate and display excel file in sapgui without the need of downloading the excel file to local directory first?
I found the following 2 ways of doing it, but both require me to download the generated xls file to local directory:
#1 way:
1. Generate the xls file using GUI_DOWNLOAD with the filename = 'c:\test.xls'.
2. Call fm SAP_STARTS_EXCEL and pass in the parameter i_filename = 'c:\test.xls'
#2 way:
1. Generate the xls file using GUI_DOWNLOAD with the filename = 'c:\test.xls'.
2. Upload it back using the below so that i can get it in xstring format.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
     exporting
       filetype = 'BIN'
       filename = 'C:\test.xls'
     tables
       data_tab = itab.
3. Then pass it to the cl_gui_html_viewer to display it.
call method html_control->load_data
    exporting
      url          = 'test.xls'
      type         = 'application'
      subtype      = 'vnd.ms-excel'
    importing
      assigned_url = l_url
    changing
      data_table   = l_pdf_data
    exceptions
      others = 1.
I prefer the #2 way as my program will get wrapped thru ITS server, and it seems the #1 way will not work. So is there any way i can get the excel file to be generated in xstring format so that i can pass to cl_gui_html_viewer straight away to display without having to save to local directory first?
Any other suggestion apart from the above 2 ways are welcome as well.
Thanks guys.

Open and Save Excel Files

Hi All,
I need code of How to open and save excel file in local system in Oracle forms.
With Regards,
Chandra Shekhar

Hello Chandra,
Webutil can be used to achieve this functionality.
STEPS TO FOLLOW
================
1. Install and configure Webutil following instructions in the webutil manual
and the readme file.
2. Create a form with a block Eg. DEPT
3. Create a button, and in that button put the following code -
DECLARE
application Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
workbooks Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
workbook Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
worksheets Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
worksheet Client_OLE2.Obj_Type;
args Client_OLE2.List_Type;
cell ole2.Obj_Type;
j INTEGER;
k INTEGER;
BEGIN
application := Client_OLE2.create_obj('Excel.Application');
workbooks := Client_OLE2.Get_Obj_Property(application, 'Workbooks');
workbook := Client_OLE2.Invoke_Obj(workbooks, 'Add');
worksheets := Client_OLE2.Get_Obj_Property(workbook, 'Worksheets');
worksheet := Client_OLE2.Invoke_Obj(worksheets, 'Add');
go_block('dept');
first_record;
j:=1;
k:=1;
while :system.last_record = 'FALSE'
loop
for k in 1..3 /* DEPT has 3 columns */
loop
If not name_in(:system.cursor_item) is NULL Then
args:=Client_OLE2.create_arglist;
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, j);
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, k);
cell:=Client_OLE2.get_obj_property(worksheet, 'Cells', args);
Client_OLE2.destroy_arglist(args);
Client_OLE2.set_property(cell, 'Value', name_in(:system.cursor_item));
Client_OLE2.release_obj(cell);
End If;
next_item;
end loop;
j:=j+1;
next_record;
end loop;
/* For the last record */
for k in 1..3
loop
If not name_in(:system.cursor_item) is NULL Then
args:=Client_OLE2.create_arglist;
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, j);
Client_OLE2.add_arg(args, k);
cell:=Client_OLE2.get_obj_property(worksheet, 'Cells', args);
Client_OLE2.destroy_arglist(args);
Client_OLE2.set_property(cell, 'Value', name_in(:system.cursor_item));
Client_OLE2.release_obj(cell);
End If;
next_item;
end loop;
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(worksheet);
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(worksheets);
/* Save the Excel file created */
args := Client_OLE2.Create_Arglist;
Client_OLE2.Add_Arg(args,'d:\test.xls');
Client_OLE2.Invoke(workbook, 'SaveAs', args);
Client_OLE2.Destroy_Arglist(args);
/* release workbook */
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(workbook);
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(workbooks);
/* Release application */
Client_OLE2.Invoke(application, 'Quit');
Client_OLE2.Release_Obj(application);
END;
4. Save the form and compile it.
5. Run the form.
6. Execute the query in the block.
7. Click on the button.
8. An excel file will be created in the d:\ directory by the name test.xls.
Kind regards,
Alex

Saving and using excel files in Numbers.

I have saved Numbers files as Excel files. and then saved them to Dropbox. They are .xls files.
My associate uses a PC and his Excel files are .xlsx files.
I can open his files.
How can he open mine?
We are sharing info on a file.

no problem!
if you have an excel document on your mac or pc that you want to view only, email it to yourself from your desktop, open the email onyour iPad, and touch the attachment - it will open as a view only file so all the cell formulae etc are hidden, you just see the visible elements.
if you want something you can use to edit, i use an app called Office2 (that's a superscript "2" or 'Office squared'. I'm using the iPhone version on my iPhone and iPad, It's currently £3.49 on the iTunes app store. But I see there is now an iPad version (HD) available for a fiver.
Basically, you do exactly the same as above but when you touch the attachment in the email, if Office2 is installed there is an option at the top asking which app you want to open it in. Choose Office 2 then you can open, change, save, mail it back to yourself.
i don't use very large excel files, but it works for me!!

Generate and send Excel format file by mail in bakground.

Hi fellows, i have a requirement, which is to generate an excel file in background and send it attached by e-mail. This file have many characteristics like Freeze pane, Auto filters, and some other format characteristics, One of the ways for achieving this kind of characteristics is using OLE or Desktop Office Integration, but both run in foreground. Other way i found is formatting the excel using XML and then at the moment of sending it by mail, changing extension for xls, but the problem is that it occupies too much space, i imagine cause it is raw xml, for example for a file for 1,000 records and 14 columns generates a file of 1.6Mb which is not like generating the same file using OLE or DOI (24Kb).
I would like to know if there is a way to use an excel component or another way that takes less space for generating the file with format and also send it by e-mail in background??
Thanks.
Noe.

is 1.6 MB the smallest size you can generate, did you remove every optional tag?
XLSX format is a compressed XML format valid since office 2007. Maybe you can try to generate it? (I don't exactly know which ZIP algorithm it requires, SAP can compress using the ZLIB Compression Library)
You may also attach a Windows server to SAP via RFC. You should create an RFC server. You may have a look at this [sdn article - Communication to Presentation Server in Background Mode|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/9831750a-0801-0010-1d9e-f8c64efb2bd2] for some clues about running an RFC server. I guess you could use a VB script on the server.
For sending emails, this is a separate question, you may have a look at wiki: sending mails - home page.

Xml publisher generate huge size excel file

hi,
we use xml publisher to generate excel file.
the problem is:
when there are over 100,000 rows, the excel file size will be very very huge,and it will take very very long time to open it.
i open the excel file with UltraEdit and find it is filled with html sytax.
When that excel file is opened with excel and saved as .xls file, the size will be dramatically reduced.
anyone can help?

Hello
I am getting the same problem, the EXCEL output file size is huge.
What I notice that it is stored as Web Pages *.htm; *.html (Save as Type) in Excel this is the reason it is huge.
If I save as Microsoft Office Excel Workbook *.xls it Reduce the size.
I don't know how to save as *.xls through XML Publlisher.
Any body knows? please Help..
Thanks.

Steps to prepare and upload excel files data to r/3?

Hi abap experts,
We have brand new installed ECC system somehow configured but with no master or transaction data loaded .It is new empty system....We also have some legacy data in excel files...We want to start loading some data into the SAP sandbox step by step and to see how they work...test some transactions see if the loaded data are good etc initial tests.
Few questions here are raised:
-Can someone tell me what is the process of loading this data into SAP system?
-Should this excel file must me reworked prepared somehow(fields, columns etc) in order to be ready for upload to SAP??
-Users asked me how to prepared their legacy excel files so they can be ready in SAP format for upload.?Is this an abaper job or it is a functional guy job?
-Or should the excel files be converted to .txt files and then imported to SAP?Does it really make some difference if files are in excel or .txt format?
-Should the Abaper determine the structure of those excel file(to be ready for upload ) and if yes, what are the technical rules here ?
-What tools should be used for this initial data loads? CATT , Lsmw , batch input or something else?
-At which point we should test the data?I guess after the initial load?
-What tools are used in all steps before...
-If someone can provide me with step by step scenario or guide of loading some kind of initial master data - from .xls file alignment to the real upload - this will be great..
You can email me some upload guide or some excel/txt file examples and screenshots documents to excersize....Email: [email protected]
Your help is appreciated it.!
Jon

Depends on data we upload the data from file to R/3 .
If it is regular updation then we used to get the data from application server files to R/3 since local file updation we can not set up background processing..
If it is master data upload and that to one time upload then we use presenation server files to SAP R/3..

Why does Apple say that Numbers can open and save Excel files, when in actuality, it can only open .XLSX files and only Export to Excel (not save-as excel)?

When attempting to open .XLS files in Numbers, the format is not recognized. When the format is .XLSX, the format is recognized. Why is it this way? It's still much more common for folks to have the .XLS file format on their excel files. Why would Numbers not be backwards-compatible?
Additionally, to state in the benefits of this program that one can save to 'Excel' is a little misleading. You can't save to anything except .numbers. Sure, you can export to Excel (with file extension .XLS, I might add), but you can't save or save-as.
Does anyone else see the irony in being able to export to .XLS but not be able to open an .XLS?
There is something to be said for clarity.
You can't expect folks to have Numbers and Excel on their systems, so how else are they supposed to open .XLS files in Numbers?
And I don't need to see another advertisement for NeoOffice or OpenOffice here, thanks. I'd actually like Numbers to be a little more sensible.
That is all.

When the advertisements were written, there was no Lion so we were able to Save As Excel.
At thiqs time there is no longer Save As command under Lion but the feature is always available.
When your editing task is ended, you are free to use this scheme:
File > Duplicate
File > Save and in the dialog you will have the option save as Excel.
Numbers isn't and I hope that it will not become an Excel editor.
Its resources contain a flag defining it this way.
I posted several times a script editing this resource.
This morning I'm not in a mood allowing me to do your duty.

I am not sure why I get the following error for the below code. Everything seems to work otherwise.
Error found: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8002000B): Invalid index. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8002000
B (DISP_E_BADINDEX))
Application _application;public void CloseFile(string filename, bool isSaveChanges)
_application.Workbooks[filename].Close(SaveChanges: isSaveChanges);

I' work with excel files with connection you can save data and close connection Easy.
//connection String for xls file format.
if (fileExtension == ".xls")
excelConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" + fileLocation + ";Extended Properties=\"Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=2\"";
//connection String for xlsx file format.
else if (fileExtension == ".xlsx")
excelConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=" + fileLocation + ";Extended Properties=\"Excel 12.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=2\"";
//Create Connection to Excel work book and add oledb namespace
OleDbConnection excelConnection = new OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString);
excelConnection.Open();
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt = excelConnection.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDbSchemaGuid.Tables, null);
if (dt == null)
return null;
String[] excelSheets = new String[dt.Rows.Count];
int t = 0;
//excel data saves in temp file here.
foreach (DataRow row in dt.Rows)
excelSheets[t] = row["TABLE_NAME"].ToString();
t++;
OleDbConnection excelConnection1 = new OleDbConnection(excelConnectionString);
string query = string.Format("Select * from [{0}]", excelSheets[0]);
using (OleDbDataAdapter dataAdapter = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, excelConnection1))
dataAdapter.Fill(ds);

Can numbers open and view excel files with filters applied?

Hi - I don't currently have iWork but was considering purchasing it. I frequently get sent excel files from work (which I view on my iPad 3) that have got filters in the column headings applied and I need to be able to change the dropdown values in the headings to see different cuts of the data in the spreadsheet. Does anyone know if the current version of Numbers allows users to do this?

Numbers has a row filtering feature, but it doesn't involve the Header or any dropdown menus. In Numbers row filtering is controlled from the Reorganize Panel which is activated from the Toolbar. Given this, I don't think an imported Excel document will have the filtering feature active. Hopefully someone who uses both Execl and Numbers will weigh in.

Cannot open Excel files on Windows share and ONLY Excel files

I'm browsing a Windows share and for whatever reason it will not let me open Excel files directly from the network location. If I view the Coverflow, I can see a a preview of the actual file as well as copy it to the desktop and open it.
I receive an error message that says "filename.xls could not be found."
I can open up any other file from the network location, but not Excel files.
I checked the file permissions and they mirror the other file types, it may be worth mentioning that I utilize network synchronization and view these files from a PC as well. I also noticed when I create a new file in that location, it will only appear in OS X and not Windows, but is still completely accessible.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

How do I read a range of data from an open and "live" Excel file using LV7.0 Express

I need to interface with software which continuously (once per second) writes a new array to a fixed location in an open Excel file. I would like to read this data into Labview from where I can do what I like with it. I am relatively new to LabView and have tried all "Read Data" examples that come with the product, Active examples seem very unclear. Anyone got any samples/suggestions to get me started?

It is possible but might be a little bit complicated. Does your application opens the Excel file or Excel file was opened through Excel or another application already?
In the first senario, once the excel is opened, start reading the data, do not close the report file (dispose the report) or close the excel file
In the second senario, it is a little bit more complicated. You need to use low level Excel ActiveX functions. The procedure is:
1. Open reference to Excel
2. Activate the desired workbook if it is already opened
or open a new file
3. Activate the sheet containing the data
4. Read the data
5. Loop if necessary (step 2 if diff wb, step 3 if diff sht, 4 if same sheet)
6. Close Excel reference (Very important, close the
ref only, do not use Application.Exit to exit Excel).
Hope this helps,
