HFM Smartview 7.2.1.1 with Excel 2007

Hi,
We are using the following Versions:
Hyperion Smartview 7.2.1.1
Hyperion Financial Management 4.0.1
Microsoft Excel 2007
When we try to retrive the data from Excel 2007 with 80 tabs, we are getting blank values around after 20 mins.
Sometimes, we are getting the values and sometimes we are getting the blank values.
Is there a compatibility issue between these versions of HFM with Office Excel 2007.
Is there any way to get the values instead of blanks.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Hari

Hi Hari,
I am not completely certain, but have a good feeling that this is a compatibility issue. I just checked the Supported Platforms Matrices:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/hyperion-supported-platforms-085957.html
The site doesn't have version 7 documentation, but the oldest version, 9.2., is not compatible with Office 2007. The earliest version that 9.2 is compatible with is Office 2003.
I'd wait and see if you will get more responses here, but I'd also check with Oracle.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Known issues for OBIEE Office Add in with Excel 2007?

Hi,
Does anybody know if there are issues for the office add-in with Office 2007?
i'm playing around a little bit to see how it works, but it seems that Excel interferes with the layout.
I do get different grafs and also i tried the tutorial with the excel template and my changes come only partly through.
Thanks
Sandra

Hi Sandra,
Were you able to use OBIEE Office Add in with Excel 2007? I am planning to look at this compatibility. I am looking here to seeif anyone found issues with this setup..
Thanks,

Hyperion Essbase QAT Menu with Excel 2007

I just upgraded to Hyperion Essbase 11.1.1.3 and I recently upgraded to Excel 2007. Moving to XL2007 made the Essbase add-in two levels deep in the ribbon so I wanted to move this to the Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). I found a great tool to develop QAT menus authored by [url http://www.rondebruin.nl/qat.htm]Ron Debruin.
I took his code and customized it to work with the Hyperion commands. Picture of menu here: http://i.imgur.com/X7zFS.jpg
Everything worked great for a few month for both myself and about 75 coworkers but once we upgraded to Essbase 11.1.1.3 from 7, the menu macros stopped working for almost everyone except for myself and a few others.
I set this macro in the xlstart folders so that it opens with excel. The QAT menu still appears for everyone, but when selecting any of the menu items to run, nothing runs.
Example: When running
Sub MyMacro21()
 Call EssMenuVConnect
End Subfrom the custom QAT menu, nothing happens. What should occur is a popup login for Hyperion. I've even tried to run the code outside of the QAT menu and it does not work so this leads me to believe something is wrong with my Hyperion code. Now mind you, this work fine on my machine.
I'm unable to determine the cause for the macro to not work. Any help or troubleshooting pointers would be appreciated.
Here is the code that I'm using.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi Mathieu,

Essbase 7 add-in with Excel 2007

Hi,
We are using Essbase Spreadsheet services 7.1.3 (EssbaseWebService) in Excel 2007 and we are facing an issue with the zoom-in function. The zoom-in retrieval time is a lot more time consuming than with Excel 2003.
Do someone ever faced the same issue ?
Thanks !

Problems with Excel 2007 and Essbase 6.5

Hi,
Two quick questions:
1. We are planning to upgrade our office to 2007, XP professional SP2 but still going to use Essbase excel add-in 6.5 for some users and Essbase 7.3 add-in for others. Has anyone faced any problems with this combination?
2. The only problem I encountered so far was when I double click a member name for retrieval, the pointer (cursor/icon) flickers / flashes continuously. But when I take the pointer out of the excel spreadsheet, the flicker goes away. Does anyone know a fix to this. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm admin of an hyperion essbase database.
I'm testing our addin 6.5.1 with excel 2007.
First problem evocated on retrieve is confirmed.
I continue my test and tell you if i find another problem.
What i would say is that old version can be unsupported but i'm sure we can use this addin on excel 2007, i hope.
Regards.

Error in BEX7.0 with Excel 2007

Previously we had Excel 2003. It was working fine with BI7.0
When we installed Excel 2007, and trying to open a query.. it is giving folowing error

I thought its authorization issue, so I traced using ST01 for this. But there the return code is showing Sucess ( RT = 4). So can anyone let me know where is the errror.

How to open TXT file with excel 2007

With Excel 2003 if we right click the txt source file name, there will be an option to open the file Excel, but with Excel 2007, then we right click txt fiel name , there is no option of open the file with excel, is this mean that we have to copy the txt file to excel file to manipulate the source file? Any idea how to do this?

just find out that we can use the browser to find the excel and open the file, next time the excel option will be there.

Error message when opening a shared workbook with Excel 2007

Hello,
We would like to share a workbook outside BW (by saving into a serveur).Since we use Excel 2007, we can't anymore open this workbook.
We have a message error (see bellow).
For your information, it was ok with Excel 2003.
When whe save the workbook in local disk and then copy from local disk
to a serveur, it's ok.
We use SAPGUI 7.10 support package 8, patch 1 Revision 1443 & BI 7.0.
Best regards
Nicolas Triqnuand

hey Nicolas,
first of all, your error message is in French... not too many people out there will be able to understand. Eventhough I do understand French, it doesn't make much sense to me... BUT... in Excel2007 all macro's are by default disabled. When you enable them (you should get a "Security Warning" right under "the Ribbon"), your BI stuff should work again.
Just gave it a try, and it runs smoothly over here.
Cheers,

Report created in SAP/ BEx 7.1 with Excel 2007 can't be opened by 2000/2003

Hi
We're currently in the process of migrating to Office 2007 from both 2000 & 2003 and we're finding in testing that staff who use BEx Analyser with SAP 7.1 to create queries and send embedded in reports to others can not be opened by recipients who are still on Excel 2000 or 2003. Staff who already using Excel 2007 can open the reports however not on earlier versions. We are ensuring the excel file is saved as the file type .xls so there's no reason we can see why it shouldn't open successfully.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Many thanks

OLAP 10g with Excel 2007 crashing problems

We currently have a 10g database and 10g OLAP toolset. We have a user population split between Windows XP on Excel 2003 and Windows 7 on Excel 2007. We are distributing the Excel Add-In 10.1.2.3.0.2 version, but the Windows 7/Excel 2007 users are having a lot of problems with Excel crashing unless it is the only application that is open (which is understanably frustrating to that user base). They have to go into task manager and kill the excel process (not just the application) or face doing a full reboot. Are there any settings we can change to improve performance on Excel 2007? We hope to do an 11g upgrade later this year, but it won't happen until 2nd half at the earliest due to other contstraints.

First verify if the patch was successfully installed by checking the Xcelsius application version from the Help Menu. It should be 4.2.5.5 or higher.
In addition, that might be behavior due to an Excel add-in affecting the automation between Xcelsius and Excel. You may need to remove any Excel add-ins that you have installed.
