How to convert the 3.x ABAP Routines into BI 7 ABAP Routines

Hi All,
I am trying to convert a BI 3.x data flow into BI 7 data flow suing DTP's.
But i am stuck at Transformations. We have used several Routines in 3.X data flow and those routines are not converted automatically into the new data flow.
Is there any other tool or program whcih will convert the ABAP routines automatically into the new ABAP format.
my sample ABAP 3.x Code looks like this in Start routine,
LOOP AT DATA_PACKAGE.
    IF (     DATA_PACKAGE-CPPVLC EQ 0
         AND DATA_PACKAGE-CPPVOC EQ 0
         AND DATA_PACKAGE-CPSTLC EQ 0
         AND DATA_PACKAGE-CPQUAOU EQ 0
         AND DATA_PACKAGE-CPSVLC EQ 0 ).
      DELETE DATA_PACKAGE.
      CONTINUE.
    ENDIF.
I tried to replace DATA_PACKAGE with SOURCE_PACKAGE, but it did not work.
any help will be appreciated.
Cheers
POPS

I tried to replace DATA_PACKAGE with SOURCE_PACKAGE, but it did not work.
When you use SOURCE_PACKAGE it will not have header line so you need to use workarea.
Use something like
LOOP AT SOURCE_PACKAGE into WA_SOURCE_PACKAGE.
Define WA_SOURCE_PACKAGE of type SOURCE_PACKAGE.
and replace further data_package in the code with WA_SOURCE_PACKAGE
Hope this helps.

How to convert the String "1+1==2" into the boolean true?

Hi folks!
I need your help...
In a Java program, I have a String such as
String str="1+1==2";
and I want to know if the content of this String is true or not.
How to get the answer in a boolean b?
I already know that
boolean b=Boolean.valueOf(str).booleanValue();
doesn't work (b contains false);
whereas when I try
boolean b=Boolean.valueOf("true").booleanValue();
it perfectly works (b is true).
Would you be so kind as to solve my problem?
Thanks ;)

Hi folks!
I need your help...
In a Java program, I have a String such as

How to get the answer in a boolean b?How can the content of a String ever be a boolean ? and we all know that one...
If he were to revise his orginal requirement things would not be so
difficult for him.
"1+1==2" and "2*12-2*10==2" have one thing in common. They both check if the
RHS is equal to 2 or not...and THAT is a boolean.
And if that is a String it takes no genius to figure out how to
get a number out of them.
What's the problem with getting his boolean result.

How to Convert the content in BLOB field into a PDF file...

Hi,
I am having PDF files stored in BLOB column of a table in Oracle Database (11G R2).
I want to retrieve the files back and store them in hard disk. I am successful in storing the content as a file with '.doc' but if I store the file as '.pdf', adobe fails to open the file with error
Adobe Reader could not open file 'xxx.pdf' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded)
I am using following example code to achieve my goal...

You can't convert binary data into character based data.
So very likely this is your problem.

Converting the layout from OTF format into PDF

Hi Experts,
I am new to SMART FORMS,I don't have a clue about how to convert the layout from OTF format into PDF format and how to store it in Presentation server.
Please send me a Model program or step by step approach of the same.
Useful inputs will be rewarded higher points.
Thanks in Advance,
Dharani

Hi,
The steps are given below:-
1) First get the name of your generated function module for the smartforms.
2) Then call the generated function module.
3) Then use the FM:CONVERT_OTF' to convert into PDF as shown below:-
call function 'CONVERT_OTF'
    EXPORTING
      format                = 'PDF'
    IMPORTING
      bin_filesize          = w_pdf_len
      bin_file              = w_pdf_xstring
    TABLES
      OTF                   = OUTPUT_DATA-OTFDATA
      LINES                = LT_LINES
    EXCEPTIONS
      err_max_linewidth     = 1
      err_format            = 2
      err_conv_not_possible = 3
      err_bad_otf           = 4
      others                = 5.
Hope this is clear.

How to Convert the Warning Message to Error Message in Standard Transaction

Hi,
I face one problem in Standard Transaction Code CS02. In that by entering the material Number, Plant, bomstatus press enter. it gives a warning message. How to convert the Warning message to Error. In abap how to do that. Please help me.

Mohan,
It appears that there is some configuration you can do for BOM Message types to change the message type. The IMG link for this function is:
Production->Basic Data->Bill of Material->General Data->Change Message Type
However you need to read the IMG documentation to see if this will work for you. There are only certain messages that can be changed with this configuration step.
Also, please do not double post questions in the forums.

I have a MacBook Pro, I want to copy Itunes files to an SD card to play in my car, the SD Card doesn't appear in Itunes when I insert it, and I don't know how to convert the files to the correct format, can anyone help?
Thank you

So it seems from reading the COMMAND manual that my first issue is that I used a 16GB SD card, and the manual says it will only recogize up to a 2GB SD card. I did use my MB Air's SD card slot and crated a folder and dragged the music files to it, then to the card. So I am going to get a 2GB card and try that next. Otherwise just stick with the iPOD connected. At least that is 8GB

How to save the data of ABAP report into a notepad in desktop location???

HI all,
Can any one tell me how to transfer the data of ABAP report into a Notepad.
Actually I have to schedule a ABAP report in background on daily basis and I want to transfer the
whole record into Notepad.
If any program is available for this..please clearify the relevent code for transferring.
Thanks
Rajeev

declare a character type internal table.
now move your data from it_data ( internal table with data ) into table itab.
since you are running this report in background, you cannot save it to the desktop. Instead give any app server location
data: itab(400) occurs 0 with header line.
field-symbols: <fs1> type any.
data: gv_file type rlgrap-filename default 'TEST.TXT'.
data: gv_filepath type rlgrap-filename default <path>.
LOOP AT it_data.
    DO 100 TIMES.
      ASSIGN COMPONENT sy-index OF STRUCTURE it_data TO <fs1>.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        CONCATENATE itab <fs1> INTO itab SEPARATED BY ' '.
      ELSE.
        EXIT.
      ENDIF.
    ENDDO.
    SHIFT itab LEFT DELETING LEADING ' '.
    APPEND itab.
    CLEAR itab.
ENDLOOP.
concatenate gv_filepath '/' gv_file into gv_file.
OPEN DATASET gv_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF sy-subrc = 0.
    LOOP AT itab.
      TRANSFER itab TO gv_file.
    ENDLOOP.
    CLOSE DATASET gv_file.
ENDIF.

w_low_limit = 02.
w_max_period = 3.
concatenate 'HSL' w_low_limit into v_qtr_field.

   t_trans_values-dmbe2 = t_trans_values-dmbe2 + w_amount.

How to convert the Report Builder output to .xls

Dear All,
Let me please know how to convert the Report Builder output to Excel Format.
As there are having the facility to convert the output in .PDF or .HTML format but i want to convert that into Excel Sheet......
Please Guide me in this regards
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Vishal......

Hello,
If your question is about the format spreadsheet, it is not possible from Reports Builder :
http://www.oracle.com/webapps/online-help/reports/10.1.2/topics/htmlhelp_rwbuild_hs/rwwhthow/whatare/output/output_a_simpleexcel.htm
Restrictions
It is not possible to generate spreadsheet output directly from Reports Builder. Instead, on the command line, you can run the report using rwrun or Reports Server clients (rwservlet, rwclient, rwcgi), with DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET. You cannot store DESFORMAT=SPREADSHEET as a system parameter value in the report definition (.rdf file).

          }catch(Exception e)
               e.printStackTrace();
But its giving class cast exception. Please help on this..

Do you mean "two different layers" as in separate JVMs or "two different layers" as in functional areas running within the same JVM.
In either case, if the first class is actually semantically and functionally the same as the second (and they are always intended to be the same) then import and and use the first class in place of the second. That's beyond any question of how to get the data of the first into the second if and when you need to.
Once you make the breakthrough and use one class instead of two I'd guess that almost solves your problem. But if you want to describe your architecture a little that would help others pin down want you're trying to do.
