Header in excel output

Hi,
I'm trying to generate an output to excel spread sheet in oracle reports10g. I want to use different header instead of it is populating from the column name in sql query. The reason why i have bigger column names that i have need to show excel spread sheet.
ex :
select ename ,empid,bonus from emp;
the output will be
ename      empid     bonus10
Adams     2029     10
Scott     3030     20
But i want
Employee Name      Employee Id     Bonus %
Adams     2029     10
Scott     3030     20
Please help me on this.
Thanks & Regards,
Ramana.

I can think of 2 ways to possibly do this:
1. change your field name in your select:
Ex: select ename AS 'Employee Name' ,empid AS 'Employee #' ...
2. in the data model layout, right click 'ename', select Property Inspector, and then change the 'XML Tag' to be whatever you want it to say (Employee Name).
Hope this helps,

Follow this Example. You can do it in the below manner
You need not add HEADER1 HEADER2 to the internal table. You can just declare one field like below and append all the header columns to the internal table HEADER

Hi Rohit ,
I had copied these .class & .xml files under Myclasses -> oracle.apps.icx and oracle.apps.po and oracle.apps.fnd was same which comes part of the standard OA tutorial.
I copied same under Myprojects as well.
you have to decompile the class file into java file and then place it in Myproject directory , also copy all dependency files like BC4J components , and then
try to run from Jdeveloper .
Alternatively you can get the entire ICX folder and zip it and add it via library .

Problem with Excel output format

Hi Guys,
I am creating a report in XML Publisher (not standalone). I am facing some problems could anyone please help me to figure out the issues.
Is it possible to have all three output format (PDF, HTML & EXCEL) exact (same aligned) only by creating a single RTF Template? I am facing the problem with Excel output format the output format of excel is taking excels cell formatting.
Example Numeric fields --> Right Aligned, text fields --> Left Aligned
One more issue with excel is -ve(negative) values are getting displayed in red and in brackets like ($13) (with red color).
Our client want excel output on priority.
Is there any limitation for excel output format of reports?

Hi Mahi,
Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
1) What about the negative values?
if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
2)How can we align header or data?
Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
Please help.
Many Thanks,

Xml publisher excel output

Hi.
I have the rtf-template for xml-publisher report with excel output.
There is the table there. I need format the table according appointed requirements (in output excel file). For example, width of the columns of the table must be fixed width. How I can define width of the columns with xsl language in rtf-template?
[email protected]
Best regards

UP
There is positive progress there.
For example, I can change height of the heading row of the table by this way:
<xsl:attribute name = "height" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute>.
These xsl tags I put it in the text field of the rtf template between <?split-column-header:GROUP?> and <?VALUE?> tags (There are dinamic columns in the table).
But <xsl:attribute name = "width" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute> tags work incorrect, not as I need (Some cells is spanned in the height and division of the text is by the word).
May be I need some others tags? Or I need different object or property?
I want to note that xml-publisher's tags <?split-column-width:@width?> and <?split-column-width:width?> are not working in excel output (or I use it incorrect).
I am really need your help. How I can define exact width of dinamic columns?
Thanks.

Excel Output is being displayed as HTML in the browser

Hi All,
I am using PeopleSoft XML Publisher 5.6.2 to generate an Excel report using RTF template. The report runs successfully.
However, when I click the Output file link in the View Log page of process scheduler, the file is being displayed as a HTML page, though the extension of the file is .xls.
Also when I try to save the file by using 'Save Taget as' option, the browser prompts me to save the file as 'mhtm' file and not 'xls' file.
The following is an extract from the output file.
<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
<title>IM Top 10 Surplus & Deficit Locations</title>
After doing some research on Internet, I found the following blog post(dated back in 2008) to describe my situation and a workaround to the problem.
http://peoplesofttipster.com/2008/04/16/xls-xmlp-output-opening-in-browser-not-excel/
http://peoplesofttipster.com/2008/04/18/xls-xmlp-output-opens-in-browser-workaround/
Workaround described in the above blog post is to update the charset to us-ascii replacing UTF-8. This seems to work. But with limited file processing capabilities of peoplecode, this workaround is not a simple solution.
I also verified the mime-type mapping in the web.xml file in the webserver. Please find below the .xls mime-type mapping in the web.xml file.
<mime-mapping> <extension> xls </extension> <mime-type> application/vnd.ms-excel</mime-type></mime-mapping>
Question:
1.How do I force the browser to open the excel output file using either Excel plugin or Excel Application instead of displaying it as HTML page?
2.If not the above, how can I force the system to promt the user to save the file as Excel file instead of mhtml?
Additional details :

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Please try this by Open windows explorer, Click Tools -> Folder Options ->,Click on File Types and Select XLS from the list, Click Advanced, select "Open" and Make sure the “Browse in same window” is not selected.

Change the Desforamt as Delimited and give the File name as file.xls and run the report
you will get the Excel Output but the total will be pronted On RHS for every row.Hope this would help you to print the report in Excel File.

XML Report - Excel output automatic cell expand

Hi,
I created a XML report with Excel output. It works fine but I have 35 columns in that report.
When I open the excel file - columns are not expanded, user needs to expand it manually.
But It should automatically expanded when the user opens the report. How can i do that?
Thanks in advance.

You need to create the rtf template with enough width for each column to render the output fully expanded when viewed from BI Publisher Desktop, which will look the same when run as a concurrent request. If you used the table wizard to create your excel layout, you can widen the columns in Word and paste/enter some spaces before or after each header field in the top row which will force the html rendering that XML Plublisher utilizes to widen the columns when creating Excel output. The fundamental disconnect here is XML Publisher is not rendering .xls or .csv output, but rather html that opens in Excel minus most Excel formatting. You might need to use a 22 inch landscape layout to fit all 35 columns after they are widened.

Hide column in Excel output?

I have a .cfm file generating Excel output using CFContent.
The client want to have certain data in a hidden column.
I am already using XML to freeze the header and I tried
hiding the column by using a <LeftColumnVisible> tag within
the WorkSheetOptions (which is what Excel generates when you hide a
column). But it doesn't come through in the CF output.
Any suggestions?
Ken

Thanks. But "Exclude XML output" does not work dynamically. It cannot be set to "No" or "Yes" programmetically.
What I would like is to provide my user a parameter "Show Column X? (Yes/No)". Based on user's choice, the Excel output should display or hide column X.
Thanks for the response!

I would very much appreciate if you could send me the code for generating Excel output.

Hi,
Here's the code for generating the excel output, you can write this in button press of form which calls the excel report.It automatically opens a new excel sheet , and then it executes the SQL query, after that each rows will get filled with the values.
First of all you need to makeall the queries in the report in to a single query.
declare

Missing column data in Excel output

I have a report where one object is not displaying when output to excel. When refreshing the report in Webi or Deski, the results show, but when it is exported to excel, that particular column is missing data...the column header still shows though. I have tried adding the formula =Trim([Object]) which worked once but is not working in this instance. Any ideas on what may be causing this and potential fixes?

Hi,
There are no merged columns. I made sure the table is flush to the top of the report. Also the column header is visible. See below. I highlighted the Summary column in webi to show the formula that had worked previously to alleviate this issue, but as you can see in the excel output, it is not working. Also, I made sure the formatting of that column is the same as the other columns.
