Help! My boss wants to Save as Excel!

My boss wants our application to be able to save data directly from our application to multiple file types, this includes Excel, word.... etc, basically every type that the windows SaveAs functionality allows. Is this even possible? Even if I can not include the ability to save to all of those types, I get the feeling that saving it to excel would appease her. I would really appriciate the help and if anyone is from St. Louis, lunch is on me!

well it depends on what you want to do :
1 - if you want to export the data to a file that Excel can read, have alook to
this documented example (it works, I am allready using it):

2 - if you want a more powerfull and full integartion with microsoft tools you can
use JIntegra ( not a freeware ) have a look this other link :

I am not in St. Louis , so you can save your money :-)

  • Error "document not saved" when want to save Word/Excel files on NAS server

    Hello everybody!
    I have a NAS server (QNAP storage).I want to have some folders with these permissions : 
    1.nobody can create or delete folders in first parent folders (blue folder and red folders )
    2.everybody can create/save folders,docs... in it. (Black folders)
    when I set permission like picture below,people can not save documents in Excel or Word format in folders ( I have this problem just for Word and Excel).they face with errors : document not saved / access denied,contact your administrator.
    special permission for blue folder (domain users) 
    (include inheritable permission) and (replace all child subfolders...) are unchecked.

    when I uncheck "delete" permission in red folders and save it,"modify" permission in main permission will uncheck,too.I dont know why?in this situation,people can save docs, but they can rename/delete folders,too ( I dont want they delete
    or rename parent folders).
    what I must do?
    regards,
    atiye moghaddam

    Hi.
    How are the rights configured to be inherited? Could you do a "icacls <folder>" on each level and post it back.
    Also worth considering is that this is a Linux Samba system, so it might not work as a regular windows system.

  • Main.vi creates 2D Arrays and I want to save the arrays in an microsoft Excel file(e.g engine_1)and in differnt worksheets(e.g. measure_1;measure_2;...)

    main.vi creates 2D Arrays and I want to save the arrays in an microsoft Excel file(e.g engine_1)and in differnt worksheets(e.g. measure_1;measure_2;...)
    The path(Grundpfad)for the excel file should be inserted in the main.vi.

    1. There's a shipping example called Write Table To XL.vi (Help>Find Examples>Communicating with External Applications>ActiveX>Excel) that you can use as a starting point.
    2. Buy the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit. Info can be found here.
    3. Search this forum for other examples of writing to Excel.

  • Set Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. When I want to save the file in WORD, EXCEL or esporta file into ... immediately throws an error "save as failed to process this document no file was created". What's the problem?

    Set Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. When I want to save the file in WORD, EXCEL or esporta file into ... immediately throws an error "save as failed to process this document no file was created".
    What's the problem?
    Any help in finding a solution is greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Installed AcrobatXI PRO 11.0.09  on seven computers and laptops. Two of them gives an error when you try to save a document in WORD, EXCEL, Power Point, or when exporting to... error: Save failed to process this document. No File was created.
    But all good saves in the format of TXT and jpg.
    I have uninstalled and restored and re-installed and updated and registry cleaned and removed using the special utility Cleaner Tool for Acrobat, but nothing helps.
    On one notebook with Windows 8.1 and Microsoft office 2013, on another laptop with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010, the same problem, although there are computers with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010 and everything works.
    Tell me where to find the problem and how to solve it.
    Thank you.

  • I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made & opening as read only for the 2nd person - but allowing them to save the file.

    1) I am having trouble with an excel file wanting to save when no changes were made.  As soon as you open the file and exit.  It prompts for a save.
    All excel versions are 15.0.4701.1002.
    Using a table.
    the functions CELL, OFFSET, TODAY, INDIRECT, NOW, INFO and RAND are not being used.
    2) Same file.   2nd person is being told they are opening the file as read only - but when they are quitting excel prompts them to save the file. 
    Everything was working fine.  I started having problems with Excel, IT wiped my version out and re-installed office. 
    File is on networked server HP - Windows Server 2012 Essentials.  
    We are all on Windows 8.1 Pro.
    I really hope someone can help - the excel expert had no answer - and passed me along to here.

    I copied the whole file and started deleting worksheets one at a time and testing it by closing it and re-opening it then closing it again – to see if it wanted to save. 
    Once all the pivot tables were deleted – the problem went away. 
    I found that some of the pivot tables had automatic refresh upon open, so this caused the excel to think data had changed. 
    It is fixed now.  By clicking on one cell of the pivot table, analyze, options, data and uncheck the 3<sup>rd</sup> square down to not automatically refresh.  NOT A NETWORK ISSUE.

  • Need some help in saving video message from viber to my Iphone. I disabled the thing that would save photos and videos automatically then, there comes a video I want to save. After loading and watching it, I press the "save to gallery"

    Need some help in saving video message from viber to my Iphone 5S with new ios 8's program . I disabled the thing that would save photos and videos automatically then, there comes a video I want to save. After loading and watching it, I press the "save to gallery" thing but it doesn't save in gallery. I tried all, restarting my phone, rebooting then turning on the save automatically thing and when I watch it again, it still wouldn't save.

    Probably a good question to ask Viber or look at their support site.

    Repair permissions and restart your computer.  If this does not work, zap the pram.  You should now see your external hard drive.

    I am unable to install itunes. I get the pop-up asking if I want to save or cancel the iTunes64 file. I click save... and then nothing happens. Help!

    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:

    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    When you restore from a Time Machine back up you can pick and chose what is restored. It is not an all or nothing process. Nor do you have to do the partial restores all at the same time. If days after the first partial restore you find something else you want you can restore just that.

    Welcome to the discussions,
    WHY does it claim to be 8G but my capacity now says its just 6.83
    The size of you HD is calculated binary when it comes to use it, instead of decimal when companies want to advertise there products. 1 KB=1024Byte instead of 1000KB as advertised by the manufacturer. In your case this reduces the actual available space by the factor of 0.93 or approx. 7,4GB.
    If you have an "other" section in your color bar showing the different types of data on your ipod, which is bigger than 500MB, this could be a sign of corrupt data caused by a sync that did not complete or copied damaged data. A restore will reduce the size to normal again.
    Restoring: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    If you restore your ipod, iTunes will install the newest firmware first and then add back your data and settings from your last backup if you choose to "restore from backup". Every backup is replaced by the following one, so make sure to include this folder in your backup routine in case you'll have to go back.
    You can check the location and size of the backup folder for your ipod here:
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: \Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup\
    copied from: About backups http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    Sorry, I can't answer your payment question, I have never used your kind of setup, maybe you can find something useful here: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/

  • Firefox 4 does not ask me if I want to save my tabs when I quit. Tried all the suggestions in Firefox Help and still have the problem.

    I just got a new MacBook Pro and installed Firefox 4. When I go to quit, I do not get the box that asks if I want to save the tabs before quitting, and they have not been saved. I tried all the Firefox suggestions on the Help Page, and nothing fixed this problem.

    You may well be able to restore the tabs even if there is no explicit message on closing that asks you if you wish to restore.
    You will be able to change firefox 4 to ask you by changing preferences, I am not sure it is covered in any Knowledge Base article, butit is often mentioned, see for instance: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/799856

  • Firefox frequently freezes. I can't click on anything (tabs, menu buttons, bookmarks, etc.) The only button that works is the upper right close button which when clicked will ask me if I want to "save & quit." Then I have to restart. Help fixing this?

    Frequently when I use Firefox it will all of a sudden freeze. It no longer will accept any user input from the keyboard or mouse. I cannot click on any of the open tabbed pages I have or on my bookmarks or any of the menu buttons. Nothing works. When it happens if it is loading a page it will just freeze in the middle of loading it. I've tried to see if the freezes are caused when it loads certain types of content (java, flash, etc...) but there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to when it happens or with what types of pages. I cannot find a pattern. The ONLY button that works is the close button in the upper right hand corner (X). I can click on that and then Firefox will prompt me with it's regular message asking me if I want to save and quit, quit, or cancel. I'll hit save and quit and then reopen Firefox. It opens my tabs and if I was in the middle of a post it generally will still remember the text I've typed (except Facebook!).
    It's beginning to drive me nuts and I'm really hoping to find a fix to this.

    You will also notice that your shift key will be emulated. Meaning that keys you will try to press will press but they will act like you are pressing the shift key when you are doing them.
    Try this, minimize the firefox window by pressing the tab on your taskbar. After doing that maximize it again. You will magically be able to click any link on your page. When you navigate to a new page however, the entire situation will start all over. My only remedy is rebooting and hoping it doesn't happen again soon.

  • Firefox will no longer ask if I want to save password. Box checked to save PW. Help.

    Program was asking if I wanted to save passwords. It longer ask. I have checked the box for "Save PW". Exceptions do not have any web sites logged. It appears to have stopped working previous to the last Fox upgrade.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.
    *https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Private+Browsing
    *You enter Private Browsing mode if you select: Tools > Options > Privacy > History: Firefox will: "Never Remember History"
    *To see all History and Cookie settings, choose: Tools > Options > Privacy, choose the setting <b>Firefox will: Use custom settings for history</b>

  • How to save an excel file as CSV with semi-colon as data separator?

    We are creating a flat data file to load the flat file data to our BW system with Excel.  When we save the file, there are three kinds of CSV types for selecting from the "Save as type" list box:
    CSV (Comma delimited)
    CSV (Macintosh)
    CSV (MS-DOS)
    There is no CSV (semi colon delimited) type.  If we pick CSV (Comma delimted) as the type, then when clicking the "Preview ..." picture icon under the "DataSource/Trans. Structure" tab of the InfoSource for this flat file (with the CSV radio button checked the Data separator default is ";"), the File Upload Preview window shows the data is messed up that some columns of the excel flat file are combined into one column.
    Since the save type we picked is "CSV (Comma delimited)", then we try to change the default Data separator from ";" to "," in the preview selection screen, but still not helpful!
    How to resolve the above problem?
    Thanks

    Hi Kevin,
    This "," is defined in your windows setting. If you want to have ";" as separator then go to control Panel, select Regional Options, go to Numbers Tab and define the List separator as ";". After that when you will save your excel file as CSV(MS-DOS) it will have ";" as separator. This will make sure that the amounts are not broken in to two different fields while loading.
    Else if you keep "," as separator then you can also go into the Excel and define all number fields as Number without thousand separator.
    Let me know if you have any doubts in this.
    Regards,
    Rohit
