Giving a specific path to the reading from excel application

Hello, i want to know there is a way of giving a specific path to an application (reading from excel sheet) without all the time getting to enter the path? if someone could help. i'm using labview 8.0
Regards,
Tchaou

you could just use a path constant. Drop a path constant on the BD and right click on it and select browse and then find the file you want.

Reading the data from excel file which is in application server.

Hi,
Iam trying to read the data from excel file which is in application server.
I tried using the function module ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE. But it didn't work.
I tried just reading using open data set and read data set it is giving junk characters.
Please suggest me if you have any solution.

Hi Narendra,
Please see the below code I have written
OPEN DATASET pa_sfile for INPUT in text mode ENCODING DEFAULT MESSAGE wf_mess.
CHECK sy-subrc = 0.
DO.
READ DATASET pa_sfile INTO wf_string.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
EXIT.
else.
split wf_string at wl_# into wf_field1 wf_field2 wa_upload-field3
wa_upload-field4 wa_upload-field5 wa_upload-field6 wa_upload-field7 wa_upload-field8
wa_upload-field9 wa_upload-field10 wa_upload-field11 wa_upload-field12 wa_upload-field13
wa_upload-field14 wa_upload-field15 wa_upload-field16 wa_upload-field17 wa_upload-field18
wa_upload-field19 wa_upload-field20 wa_upload-field21 wa_upload-field22 wa_upload-field23
wa_upload-field24 wa_upload-field25 wa_upload-field26 wa_upload-field27 wa_upload-field28
wa_upload-field29 wa_upload-field30 wa_upload-field31 wa_upload-field32 wa_upload-field33
wa_upload-field34 wa_upload-field35 wa_upload-field36 .
wa_upload-field1 = wf_field1.
wa_upload-field2 = wf_field2.
append wa_upload to int_upload.
clear wa_upload.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
CLOSE DATASET pa_sfile.
Please note Iam using ECC5.0 and it is not allowing me to declare wl_# as x as in your code.
Also if Iam using text mode I should use extension encoding etc.( Where as not in your case).
Please suggest me any other way.
Thanks for your help,

How to store the data read from excel using java code in Ms access database

Hi. I wrote a code to read the data from excel. May i know how can i save it to Ms access database using java. Also i have many excels. So i should not connect the database using DSN. So is there any other way to achieve this?

Both articles explains how to use the jdbc-odbc bridge. I think I've seen a pure jdbc driver for access but it wasn't from Microsoft and it wasn't free.

Retrieving Jar path in the HD from within the jar?

I have a small problem. I wrote a program which is packed in a jar file and this program is able to compile and run java files (Which I do by running javac and java processes) but the kind of files that this program compiles requires some other libraries inside the same package (In the jar file) so I am wondering how can I retrieve the jar path in the harddisk from within this jar because at the moment I ask the user where the program is and I think it is kind of ugly to ask the user where the program is from within the exact same program we are looking for.
Hope I made myself understandable.

Thanks for the answer. I mistakenlly ended writing a new thread (New to the forum)
but if you would kindly look here, I have other problem now which I have been working on for a whole day.

.exe reading from Excel files

Hi everybody,
I know similar questions have been asked lots of times but while searching the forum didn't find an anwer to my problem.
I created an exe file (using exe4j) of a java application which reads form Excel files. Although it works when I run it from my editor, when running the exe file it cant find the Excel file. More specifically I have this error:
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
In order to read from excel files I use POI. I used it so as not to use ODBC driver and make it possible to run in every computer. When adding the driver, the exe works.Do you know a way to make it work without having to install the Driver?
Thanks in Advance

You need database drivers to read excel spread sheets?
Also, why did you make it an exe? just jar it and be done with it.

please help me ... The question has nothing to do with 'getting' data from excel and certainly not with putting it into MySQL.
The stack trace specifically tells you that your connection string is wrong.
It also tells you which connection string is wrong.
Which you can use to determine specifically which one is wrong. And which you did not provide that info to us.

The best place to ask your question is at the JSMS website, forum or mailing list since this is no error that directly comes from a class belonging to the core Java classes.

Hello Sachin,
You can use the following metalink note:How to Read Data from an EXCEL Spreadsheet into a Form Using Webutil Client_OLE2 (Doc ID 813535.1) and modify it a little bit.
Instead of copy values into forms you can save them in your temporary table.

Error in reading from excel file

hi,
I have written a program which reads from excel file
and based on the value of the column i have to do something.
Everything is fine but when i run it, it produces an error message

the value 851.0 is acually the value of the first column.
Here is the code and i hope someone can help me to find the solution

                                   st.close();
                                   con.close();
                                  } catch(Exception ex) {
                                       System.err.print("Exception: ");
                                       System.err.println(ex.getMessage());
                             }

Maybe 851.0 is float value, not string.
Try Object columnValue1 =
rs.getObject(i); instead of String
columnValue1 = rs.getString(i);
You are absolutely right i actually change the line
custNo =Integer.parseInt(columnValue1);
into
custNo =Double.parseDouble(columnValue1);
Thanks alot :)

As Jay mentioned above it might be due to the size of the Excel spreadsheet as you might be hitting the limitation in Apache POI library used for adapter.
What is the size of the Excel file?
What is the value of -Xmx parameter - see DS Management Console > Adapter configuration page.
Thank you,
