Header part of Report sectio not exporting well to Excel in IR studio 9.3.1

Hi All,
I'm using Hyperion System 9 Interactive Reporting Studio version 9.3.1.0.0.248. System 9 Server is also same version.
I have a requirement to export the Report section in Excel format and email to the user retaining the format, header, footer etc. in printable format.
Since direct export to Excel doesn't retain all the formatting, I am exporting to MHTML and then open in Excel.
After export, the formatting and alignment of the header part is not appearing the way it is designed in Reports section. The Header part appear jumbled or wrapped and not centered. In another reprot, where I have a company logo in the Report Header section, all the items in the Header section appear one after another in different rows in the Excel file, instead of appearing as one banner.
Any solution for this issue?
Thanks
Z

I have not seen that functionality at all in Report Studio.

What Keynote features will not export well to PowerPoint?

I am an expert PC user switching to mac...
We use MS Live Meeting for webinars, and it only accepts (as far as I know) PowerPoint presentations. I would like to produce the presentation in Keynote, and then save as to PowerPoint. However, my experience with Pages importing office 07 has been disappointing to say the least.
So, before I spend a lot of time learning Keynote, I would like to know what features of Keynote WILL NOT export properly to PPT. I don't want to spend a lot of time creating cool effect (magic move?) only to realize it was wasted.
Is there a URL that explains what won't work? Is there a way to gray out features in keynote that will not work in PPT?
Thanks
bob

Here are a few issues with exporting:
Generally the transitions will not export well -- any of the effects that are not directly available in PowerPoint will not transfer at all, and even those that are available (such as "dissolve") for the most part look worse in PowerPoint than in Keynote. This includes "content-aware slide transitions" such as Magic Move, Text Effects, and Object Effects transitions.
Smart Builds are not supported at all. Action Builds are not supported at all.
"Normal" Builds In and Out have limited support -- again, any of the animations not directly available in PowerPoint will not transfer.
In terms of graphics, Drop Shadows have limited support -- any shadows will be rendered as a solid colour, without translucency or feathered edges. Text translucency is not supported, although image translucency is. Image Adjustments are respected in export.
(The above is all gleaned from spending 5 minutes playing with Keynote. If you want to determine if some specific effect is available, I'd suggest downloading the trial version and see what happens.)
I have used Keynote quite successfully to create PowerPoint presentations, but for the most part I avoided any animations/transitions, and used it primarily for its templates, graphic abilities, and easier management of slides (e.g., I find it far more straightforward to edit templates in Keynote than in PowerPoint). Also, I always check the finished product very carefully in PowerPoint, as it is not uncommon for text spacing to be somewhat different.

Datetime not exporting correctly to excel

HI I am having an issue when exporting to excel (recordToMSExcel) format. Where the date (2010-05-26 08:13:29) winds up in excel as (5/27/2014 8:13:29 AM) after export. It only seems to do it in this one format (recordToMSExcel) pdf or the Excel wisiwyg format don't have same issue. Do I need to be setting some other setting to remedy this?
Thanks in advance.
my settings are as follows:
exportOptions.setExportFormatType(ReportExportFormat.recordToMSExcel); //ReportExportFormat.MSExcel for the data only export
                        IEFO.setShowGridlines(false);
                        IEFO.setExcelTabHasColumnHeadings(true);
                        IEFO.setMaintainRelativeObjectPosition(true);
                        IEFO.setUseConstantColWidth(true);
                        IEFO.setConstantColWidth(90);
                        IEFO.setBaseAreaType(AreaSectionKind.wholeReport);
                        IEFO.setExportPageAreaPairType(ExportPageAreaPairKind.from_int(ExportPageAreaPairKind._oncePerReport));
                        exportOptions.setFormatOptions(IEFO);

I have traced the issue back to the setting >> use 1904 Date System in excel (for Macs). If this is checked the dates are 4 years off when I open an exported crystal report file (recordToExcel export) Is there a way to set this switch to off as part of the Excel export options? Seems rather rude to have to tell all your mac customers to go change an excel setting everytime they open a crystal based report? There must be a better way...
Ted Ueda - where are you man? Help me out here, please.

Which functions and features in Numbers are NOT exported correctly to Excel?

I wish to know EXACTLY which functions I use in a Numbers sheet WILL FAIL to export correctly to an Excel or Neoffice spreadsheet.
For instance, I created a Numbers spreadsheet using prolific use of the IFERROR function. However, when I EXPORT to XLS, all the cells that used the IFERROR function were replaced by the literal value of the cell. My IFERROR formulae were not EXPORTED as I had expected.
I note that some formulae were converted correctly in my EXPORTED spreadsheet: eg MAX, MIN, AVERAGE.
I understand that IFERROR was a function introduced recently to Excel, ie in the 2007 version. Consequently, I suspect that Numbers exports to a pre-2007 version of Excel. If so, which version?
I have found this list that shows which functions are compatable amongst various versions of Excel:
Excel Functions: Compatibility Reference (2010, 2007 & 2003). (n.d.). Retrieved from https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsHau4_IeCfwdG45c0VhcjBBUGNreVo2ZzN NRU1BT0E#gid=0
This list shows that, for instance, IFERROR exisits inb both Excel 2007 and Numbers-09. So why is IFERROR not exported?
Curmi, J. (n.d.). Summary of function in excel and numbers-09. Retrieved from http://curmi.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/functions-in-excel-and-numbers- 09.pdf
Some examples of my use of ISERROR in Numbers are as follows:
=IFERROR(RANK(C47,$C47:$J47,1),"")
=IFERROR(MEDIAN(C51:C58),"")
=IFERROR($C32-C88+1,"")
I use the above function to carry out the calculation ONLY IF a cell is non-blank and contains a number.
More questions
What are the rules that Numbers uses to convert to Excel?
Is Numbers converting to the 2003 version of Excel? ... or an earlier version? ... which version?
Why desn't Numbers advise me there were conversion errors or simplifications made?
eg: "Cell A33 Function IFERROR was exported to the cell value for Excel"
Is there a preference that I can select which version of Excel that Numbers will export to?
In the meantime, I must abandon Numbers and use NeoOffice!

Thanks,
I applied your suggested ISERROR transformation to examples such as:
=IFERROR(RANK(C47,$C47:$J47,1),"")
=IFERROR(MEDIAN(C51:C58),"")
=IFERROR($C32-C88+1,"")
However, a caution for young players....
Certainly, the ISERROR function exports to .xls. However, it behaves differently in NeoOffice.
Items 1 and 2 function identically in the case of say, ranking a row in which some cells are blanks.
Item 3, when translated using ISERROR to =IF(ISERROR(C32-C88+1),"", C32-C88+1), results in "" (ie error is raised) in Numbers but yields figure 0 in NeoOffice when there is a blank in either of the cells.
I recall from programming school in the mid-1970s that using GOTO statements and On Error branch statements were not admissible as routine programming steps. In fact, we received an automatic fail grade if we used a GOTO or GOTO like construction. So, I have found a more programmatically elegant way to solve my problem: eg:
=IF(C88="","",C32-C88+1)
Curiously, earlier I found/suspect this does not work equivalently in Numbers and NeoOffice:
=IF(ISBLANK(C88),"",C32-C88+1)
When you try using ISBLANK you always get an intuitively unexpected result because ISBLANK ONLY gives TRUE when there is absolutely nothing in a cell. A Formula reference in the cell, even if the function result yields "", gives FALSE... because, according to the definition of ISBLANK the cell contains a formula.
As I tell my students, ALWAYS lookup the HELP on any function you use. ALWAYS test the function to see how it performs!.... and lesson 3: Always test your spreadsheet on different systems.... then hope!
FYI:
Here's a link to my Spreadsheet (Neoffice .xls) and a video explaining its use.

Truncation of Heading characters when an ALV is exported to an excel sheet

Hi All,
I am facing a problem while printing an ALV output on to an excel sheet. In the header the last characters are being truncated in the excel.
Now, I have the entire data in tb_output itab. So using REUSE_ALV*, i printed the output. Here comes the problem.
I heard about LIST_FROM_MEMORY and LIST_TO_ASCI which can solve this problem. But not much sure how to use those. Whether I need to pass my itab tb_output into any of these?
Please help me out from this problem.
Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Seenu

Hi!
You have 2 options:
1. Shorten your headings so that their length is LE to the fieldlength of the data they are displaying. E.g. for PO number maximum possible is 10.
2. Try using the parameter OUTPUTLEN in the field catalog. You can increase this to be equal to the length of your column heading.
Hope this helps.
Cheers!

1) "Successful Records"
2) "Customer Validation Errors"
3) "CS Validation Errors"
4) "No Activity Type Assigned"
Also I have enabled CSV output under "Report Export"
Now the issue is when I downloaded this entire report into spreadsheet, only the non-url columns are being exported.
I have even made sure that "Include In Export" under Column Attributes is set to YES.
I tried to reproduce this issue using Dept & Emp tables but it seems to be working there.
I don't know if it is the query which is causing this issue or a genuine Apex bug.
Hope someone might have faced some thing like this earlier.
Appreciate your thoughts on this.
Thanks,
Raj.

Set the name of cell or cells' range for a report and when export it to excel the names will be defined.

Hello,
I have an C# application that exports report from Reporting Services to Excel files.
I would like to know if there is a possibility to set the name of the cell or range of cells in the report (via Report Builder or somewhere else) and when open the Excel the names are set. Similar functinality when you open the Excel and go Formulas/Define
Name and set the name for a unique cell or range.
Regards,

Hi there,
I don't believe this is possible in Reporting Services. One workaround, if you don't know the exact range at runtime, might be to put hidden characters (white?) in your sheet at start and end of range, then do some postprocessing on the file using
VSTO or perhaps a 3rd-party tool like this one.
http://www.aspose.com/reporting-services/excel-component.aspx
If you do know the range it should be much easier.
cheers,

Export excel setting Page header once per report not working

Hi All,
      I am having a java web application which creates the predefined template reports in pdf or xls or rpt format. I have a requirement where in case of XLS format, the page header should be displayed ONCE PER REPORT. I have Crystal Reports XI release 2 and Java 1.5.
    I am setting from java code
     formatType = IReportFormatOptions.CeReportFormat.EXCEL;
     reportFormat.setFormat(formatType);
     IExcelFormat formatExcel = (IExcelFormat)reportFormat.getFormatInterface();
     formatExcel.setExportPageHeaderFooter(IExcelFormat.CeReportExportHeaderFooterOption.ONCE);
I have installed a patch named Excel Export patch which basically sets some registry entries
Set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal
Reports\Export\Excel\PageAreaExportType to 0 for default behavior, 1 to display no page area, 2 to display page area once per report, and 3 to show the page area once per page.
Set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Crystal Decisions\10.0\Crystal
Reports\Export\Excel\ColumnWidthBaseArea to 0 for default behavior, 4 for column width based on detail
section.
I have set PageAreaExportType to 2 and ColumnWidthBaseArea to 0 and 4.
Still i see the page headers repeating on every page. Could you please help me in resolving the issue?
Thanks in advance.

Currently in our new version of java application, we are not using DHTML viewer. Predefined report templates are published on crystal server and from Java application, we send the report parameters to the crystal and also specify the format type.
Exporting excel from the crystal template is working fine with the page headers repeating only once (have set the page header show once per report option before exporting it to excel). But the same is not happening from the Java application. i have attached the required files to the message that i posted. If you have the access you can take a loot at them.

Is it possible to select parts of a pdf to export to excel?

I have multiple forms with the same exact layout on each one and am wondering if it is possible for me to take certain parts of the form and export it to excel.

You can post a link for all to see (attachments were removed from the forum several years back for security reasons). There may be other issues to consider in your work flow after you mentioned a scan. That is not a form, but a graphic, possibly with OCR. But the latter also varies based on the OCR selections made. You also have to remember that OCR is far from perfect so using it to create an Excel database may be risky when using scanned documents. So the bottom line is that a lot more info on your work flow would be useful in addition to the example documents (even if you send directly to Lori).

Handling page breaks in Crystal Reports XI when exporting to Excel

We generate reports in Crystal Reports and programmatically export them to Excel for our end users, so the user receives both an .rpt and .xls version. We are upgrading from Crystal 8.5 to Crystal XI and have found with some of our reports that the page breaks in Excel are different in Crystal XI than in 8.5. The first page will fill to the end and then the next page will contain a few lines of data, the next will be full and the next will contains a few lines. Viewing the Excel page breaks, there are soft breaks before the short pages and hard breaks before the long pages. It's as if there is too much data defined for each page so it spills onto the next page before creating another hard page break. In Crystal 8.5, the paging was continuous as expected. Is there any way to fix this in Crystal XI?

Please note, this forum is dedicated to topics related to legacy SDKs, including the Report Designer Component (RDC), OCX, VCL, and Crystal Reports Print Engine (CRPE).
As the issue you are encountering is in the CR designer, please post your query to the Crystal Reports Design forum at:
SAP Crystal Reports
I'd also suggest adding more detail to your query; version of Crystal Reports used, is this an upgrade issue, new report issue, etc., etc.
Thank you for your understanding,
Ludek

and prohibits Microsoft Excel from running." when trying to open a report
definition.
SOLUTION FOR THE PROBLEM:
Reason and Prerequisites
You need to be an administrator on the local machine to add COM add-ins.
Solution
The user should be added as a member of the administrator role on the
local computer the first time you start Excel from XL Reporter the first
time so that the COM addin are registered, then you can remove the user
from the administrator group again.
Manually Loading the XL Reporter Excel COM Add-In
Symptom
If you install Microsoft Office after installing the XL Reporter
application or use another Windows user than the one you used when
installing XL Reporter, you can get an error message.
Reason and Prerequisites
The reason for this is that the report writer COM Add-in has not been
loaded, which prohibits Microsoft Excel from running.

the Tools menu, go to step 7.
2. In the Tools menu, choose Customize.
This opens the Customize window.
3. Choose the Commands tab and select Tools from the Categories pane on
the left.
4. In the Command pane on the right, scroll down to the COM Add-ins
command.
5. Select the COM Add-ins command, hold down the mouse button, and drag
COM Add-ins from the Commands pane over to the Tools menu on the Microsoft
Excel men bar. When the Tools menu commands appear, point to where you
want the COM Add-ins command to appear on the menu and release the mouse
button.
6. To close the Customize window, choose Close.
7. On the Tools menu, choose the new COM Add-ins option.
This opens the COM Add-ins window.
8. In the window, choose Add to open the Add Add-in window.

Show Subreport Name in the header part of the main Report subreport wise

Hi,
I want to create a Report which contains a collection of Subreport.
In header part of the main report I have one expression which shows specific text for specific subreport.
In Detail
I have three subreport named as
Sureport1
Subreport2
Subreport3
I have given page name for all the three subreport as subreport name.
Now I create one Main report. Where I drag one table and delete the group.
I created three rows in this tablix.
And in each textbox I have inserted one rectangle.
and place all the three subreport.
and here my expression is mentioned below.
=IIf(Globals!PageName Like "Subreport1","Subreport1",
IIf(Globals!PageName Like "Subreport2","Subreport2",
IIf(Globals!PageName Like "Subreport3","Subreport3","")))
This expression is working when I am placing all the subreports inside separate rectangle but not working when I am placing all three subreports in one tablix.
For both case it is showing in report designer window but in second case it is not showing in the pdf.
Thanks,
Aswini Rout

Hi,
As the description, I understand that you want to display the subreports’ name on the page header of the main report. When the page display a subreport, display the corresponding subreport name in the header part of the main report.
Base on my understanding, you should have page break on each subreport(suppose you add the subreports without Rectangle) since there is no group in the main report and there should not be a page break in the main report. If I have misunderstood, please correct
me.
I was not able to reproduce the issue currently. How did you define the page name of your main report. If it is possible, please upload your rdl file to your OneDrive and share the link here. You can also capture the screenshot so that I can understand the
problem in more details.
Thanks.

Export to Excel Action in MS SSRS Report not exporting all data in Report

Hi,
I have developed a complex Report that has many expandable nodes in a table format. The report works fine.
However, when I export the Report to Excel using Actions --> export to Excel, only the data in expanded nodes is included. The data in collapsed nodes is not included.
I am looking for approach to include data in expanded nodes in Excel Export. The expanded data can be expanded in Excel.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated.

Hi Abhijit PS,
Per my understanding you are experiencing the issue with the excel report which have add the drill down action, after export to excel only the expanded nodes included and the collapsed nodes is not shown, right?
Generally, if we expand the nodes before export to excel then the excel will display the expanded details row and keep collapsed the details row which haven't expand, but we have the toggle "+","-" on the left of the Excel to help
control the expand and collapse, when you click the "+" you can expand the collapsed notes to see the details rows.
I have tested on my local environment with different version of SSRS and can always see the "+","-" as below:
On the Top left corner you can find the "1","2", this help to control the "Collapse All" and "Expand All".
If you can't see the "+","-" in the excel, the issue can be caused by the Excel version you are currently using, and also excel have limit support of this, please provide us the Excel version information and the SSRS version. You
can reference to this similar thread:
lost collapsing columns when export to excel
Please try to export other drill down report to excel and check if they work fine, if they did, the issue can be caused by the drill down action you have added in this report is not correctly, if possible, please try to redesign the report.
