How to export data to an excel file using VBScript

I'm trying to create a VBScript in DIAdem (V9.1) which automatically saves all the current channels in the data portal to an excel file. I've tried using 'Call ExcelExport' and specify a full file path but the file is never created. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Steve,
There are a couple of other things you can try. If you don't like Ingo's suggestion about multiple Excel STP files, your only real option is to create an ASCII file. Note that you can give the ASCII file an extension of *.CSV or even *.XLS, and Excel will read it right in.
So the question boils down to how to format the ASCII export correctly and quickly.
You can use the DAT file approach Ingo mentioned and even re-write the file with VBS to include a few header lines of your own choosing. Note that this approach does NOT support text channels. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
You can alternatively use the CSV export function in DIAdem 9.1 to output an ASCII file with the name of each channel as the single header row above all the values. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
You can also just read the values from the DIAdem channels and write them out to an ASCII file cell by cell, managing everything with VBScript calls. There is an example of this in the zip file attached below.
I hope that helps,

How to export data to an excel by preserving styles

Hi All,
I am trying to export data to an excel using ColdFusion. Below is my code.
<cfheader name="content-disposition" value="attachment; filename=dashboard.xls">
<cfcontent type="application/msexcel">
<table width="200" border="1">
<tr>
    <td width="40"> </td>
    <td width="160">
      <table width="160" border="1">
      <tr>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td>
      </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td width="40"> </td>
   <td width="160">
      <table width="160" border="1">
      <tr>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="red"> </td><td width="20" bgcolor="black"> </td>
      </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
</table>
When I try to execute above code by commenting <cfheader><cfcontent> then the output is perfect. styles are preserved. And when I uncomment <cfheader><cfcontent> and execute code, then an excel file will get open. But all the styles are lost. So how to preserve all styles(table width etc.) in excel.
Can anybody please assist me on this. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Manoz.

I copied your code and did the test. Result: no problem.
However, I used the following table data in my test. Did you use any data in yours? To fully test an HTML table, you have to put in some data.

<table width="200" border="1">
<tr>
    <td width="40">xxx</td>
    <td width="160">
      <table width="160" border="1">
      <tr>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red">AAA</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">ccc</td><td width="20" bgcolor="red">eee</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">ggg</td>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red">&n b s p;</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">ddd</td><td width="20" bgcolor="red">fff</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">hhh</td>
      </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
<tr>
    <td width="40">yyy</td>
   <td width="160">
      <table width="160" border="1">
      <tr>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red">111</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">333</td><td width="20" bgcolor="red">555</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">&n b s p;</td>
        <td width="20" bgcolor="red">222</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">444</td><td width="20" bgcolor="red">666</td><td width="20" bgcolor="black">888</td>
      </tr>
      </table>
    </td>
</tr>
</table>
Two other things to note. First, I have used &n b s p; for empty table-data. Secondly, though the MIME type you have used for excel might work, the correct value is application/vnd.ms-excel.

The attached zip file contains several VI's to read and write directly to Excel using ActiveX. There are several example VI showing how to use everything. This set is saved in LabVIEW 6.0.2.
I suggest you unzip these to your user.lib directory so you'll be able to easily access them from the functions palette.
I have not actually used these, but others that have say they have worked well for them.
Good Luck

How to export data to multiple csv files?

Hey Scripting Guys,
As stated by the name I'm a novice at scripting. Typically I'm able to resolve most of my scripting challenges by reading through your site or scouring the internet. This challenge I haven't been able to resolve. Please help!!
I'm running a script (posted below) to grab data and export it to a csv file. My challenge is that I want to run the script daily via task manager and have it create a new csv file either daily or weekly. I'm having trouble with the scripting
creating a new csv file. How do I resolve this?
It would be beneficial to append the date to a standard file name, ex. c:\exportedcsv7-11-2014.csv; the next day it would be c:\exportedcsv7-12-2014.csv; and so on.
Thank you in advance to any assistance.

Thank you for the information and the tip. I took your advice and did some research on Strings, something that I do have trouble grasping. I'm familiar with variables already and feel comfortable using them. I also need to study .Net which
I totally don't understand.
Since I appreciate your advice and guidance I'd like to know if I'm on the correct track. Please look at my breakdown to see if I'm explaining it correctly.
$d=Get-Date
Here a variable is being created using the Get-Date cmdlet, if we execute $d the date will appear
$d.ToString('dd-MM-yyyy')
This converts the date into the format dd-MM-yyyy.
I took the information and tips you provided then came up with this after reading about strings.
export-csv -notype "c:\folder\vmds_$($d.ToString('MM-dd-yyyy')).csv"
The double quotes evaluate the variables. The single quotes do not evaluate anything they just show what's inside of them (a.k.a. literal string). The $() evaluate the expression in ('MM-dd-yyyy') before writing it.
You are correct I definitely need to strengthen the foundation of my basics. Thank you for the direction and advice.

How to load data from MS Excel file

Hello All,
Please help me regarding:
how to load data/ insert records from MS Excel spreadsheet into Oracle table without converting that MS Excel file into CSV.
Thank You in advance.

1. Create ODBC SYSTEM DSN using Microsift Excel driver(xls) and select your excel file as workbook.
2. Create file initXLS.ora in %ORACLE_HOME%\hs\admin directory contailing the following line:

6. Create database link (public or private depending on your needs):
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK XLS USING 'XLS';7. Now you are all set. For example my file has:

How to export report output into excel file

hi friends,
i would like to get the solution from you for how to export the report output into a .xls file. i know how to convert it into .rtf and .txt files but i think it's difficult to do this .xls way, could you help me to comeover this problem?
thankyou very much.

The official answer is "delimited", which
generates adequate comma or other delimited
text. No formatting, and without extra
effort no support for non-ASCII characters.
Might be sufficient for you.
Note that Excel can read html files - we
built programs to generate html files with
name of "blah.xls" and some Excel-ish
extensions, so Excel is automatically opened
and the document is all nice and pretty.
(Oracle html output has some odd logic about
choosing number of columns, we didn't use
it.)

Thanks in Advance*.

Hello Santosh,
Play with the below importing parameters in the function module "GUI_DOWNLOAD".
WK1_N_FORMAT - Format for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_N_SIZE - Column width for value columns in files of the type WK1
WK1_T_FORMAT - Format for text columns for files of the type WK1
WK1_T_SIZE - Column width for text columns for files of the type WK1.
It might help you I guess. Also read the documentation of those importing parameters by clicking on the long text green icon after the description in the IMPORTING parameters tab of the function module.

How to Export SSRS report into Excel format using query string

Hello all,
I am new to SSRS world.
Last night i was trying to add a hyperlink on the SSRS report (.rdl) file, by clicking which we can export the report into "Excel" format, but with no luck.
Can anybody tell me how to form the hyperlink, so that we can export the report with its current content ( I mean the report content generated by selecting some parameter values)

Hi Suman85,
Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
Just as kishan1901 said , you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “Click here and export the report
to excel” .Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:
="http://vyof1884200/ReportServer$youhoo?/My+Adventure+Works/Product+Sales+and+Profitability+by+Month&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=excel"
Then preview the report ,you will see
Click here and export the report to excel
when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved , opened or canceled.
I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.
Regards,
Challen Foo
