How to open a workbook in BEx 700

Hi Friends,
Is there a way to open a workbook in BEx, just knowing its ID and name?
Workbook is not saved in a role, psooibly in favourites of a user. In 3.5 using FM RSAH_LAUNCH_EXCEL
was a way to achieve this.
Any ideas?
Regards
Joe

Hi again,
First of all thanks for answers.
Please let ne give a short explanetion of my issue:
i'm BW Admin, we are currently "moving" from 3.5 to 7.0. My problem is, that I'm  missing al ot of ueseful tools, provided in 3.5.,
not longer available in 7.0, as you can see form my threads in the past. In all of the long years of working in IT, I never expeienced such a step back and a lack od conbienence intrducing a new release of any software.
However, one of my users is spending his holidays and a collegue just wants to run a workbook obviously saved
in his favourites. And I'm still searching for a possibilty for achieving this in a easy way, without changing settings in
user administration (copying favourites copying ,even etire user....).
Thanks and Regards
Joe

  • How to open jxl workbook directly using JSP...??

    Dear Friends,
    I have created an object for "jxl.write.WritableWorkbook" in my action class, suppose let's say "objWB"
    now I can write this object to a file using objWB.write(), If I write to a file I am able to open it using FileInputStream
    but I don't have permissions on my client machine
    so is there any way, where I can open it directly using JSP.
    Thanks in advance..

    Don't think be happy

    Don't think, be happy eh? How can you be happy if you have no capacity to register it?
    In any case, to "open" a document in any web environment, you write the binary data to the response with the correct content-type set. If for example you set the content-type to "application/ms-excel" and on the client computer a program is registered to handle that content type, the document might be opened directly in that application. If there is no application registered to handle the content-type, a download of the file is usually offered.
    Do a google search for popular content-type values. I'm sure you can also find examples on how to output a binary file to the response. You are already almost there, in stead of writing the data to the fileoutputstream, write it to the outputstream of the response object in stead.

  • Open another workbook with a button in Bex Analyzer

    Hi,
    is it possible to create a button in a workbook in Bex Analyzer which opens another (specific) workbook in a new window?
    Or is there another easy way to open a specific workbook in Bex Analyzer.
    Best regards.

    Hi,
    You can configure excel to open each document (e.g. workbook) in a own window, within options (display ->windows on taskbar).
    You can also have 2 excel windows logged on to different BW systems (e.g. QA and PRD) bij opening not Bex but Excel for the second session and opening the BW Addin mannuelly via the Extra's -> addin menu...
    How to open a specific workbook is beyond my current knowledge..

  • How to open 7.0 migrated Workbooks in 3.5 analyzer

    Hi,
    We have migrated BEx 3.5 workbooks to 7.0 version.
    We now want to execute these migrated workbooks in 3.5 analyzer, but we are not able to. Does migration of WBs create a new version of the existing WB or does it overwrite the migrated WB over the old one?
    How can we run our migrated WBs on 3.5 analyzer while retaining the migrated ones?
    Thanks,
    Abhishek.

    Hi,
    Pls have a look at this post.
    Re: How to open 7.0 migrated Workbooks in 3.5 analyzer
    Technically if you upgrade your workbook it will create new 7.0 work book with same name..
    but thing is most of time it doesn't work for upgraded workbook..
    Check your support package level, still if you face issues, log oss message.

  • Workbook in BEx Analyzer doesn´t open

    Dear all,
    I´ve a problem, because I have a user on the bw and I work with the BEx Analyzer.
    When I open a special workbook there comes a white screen and then nothing.
    I deleted the user I´ve used and created the user new but still the same problem.
    But when I create another user id the problem doesn´t exist.
    What can it be?
    Or are special user parameters set in the sap bw? because I have not set any parameter

    the authorizations are ok.
    I´ve made a authorization trace with ST01 and that´s not the problem.
    A few weeks before the problem doesn´t exist. But after a few weeks I´ve opened the workbook and it doesn´t open.
    Is it possible to delete the user but that all things of the user will be deleted like entrys in tables of the customizing where the user is in?

  • BEx Browser35 for GUI720: Workbooks in BEx Analyzer cannot be opened

    Hello,
    When trying to open Workbooks using BEx Browser35 the Workbooks do net get opened within BEx Analyzer, the "lInks" seem to be inactive.
    The test has been conducted using SAPGUI720 with BEx35_Patch1 and Windows7/Office2010_32bit.
    Does anyone know if this problem is related to the new SAPGUI-version being used or is this a known error requriring some manual configuration.
    Kind regards,

  • How to Set default Workbook as .XLS for Bex 7.0

    Dear Experts,
    I have a customised default workbook set for Bex 7.0. The Extention of this Workbook is .XLSM
    Currently it is not accessible using Excel 2003 due to format issue.
    1)Kindly let me know what should be done so that I can open this Workbook in Excel 2003.
    2) Suggest a way to set the default extension for Bex 7.0  "Custom" workbook (Not SAP standard, the option is available in Global settings-->Default workbook) to .XLS.
    Thank you,
    Nandita

    Dear Nandita,
    The only correction for this situation is documented on these two notes below:
    1339061 - BExAnalyzer: opening XL 2007 files in XL 2003 not possible
    1267924 - BExAnalyzer: Use XLS as File Format when using Excel 2007
       With Frontend Patch 800 a new property "Use XLS File Format" in "Global
       Settings" dialog is available when using BExAnalyzer with Excel 2007 and
       the SAP Default Workbook is being used.
    So, everytime when you created a new workbook, check the flag of "Use XLS File Format" checkbox and save the workbook.
    Then you will be able to open with Excel 2003.
    Best Regards,
    Edward John

  • Critical program error in BEx designer when open the workbook

    problem is coming related to Workbook.when i m opening the workbook then busiess explorer giving the error messgae i.e * A critical program error has occured. The program will now terminare.please refer to the trace for further information * kindly please provide the best solution for this problems.

    hello , I got the same error while opening a workbook, and I found that this is happening coz I made some changes in Query  structure contained into workbook.
    So when you are opening and inserting the input variable do following things:
    1.Open the workbook and insert the variable, but do not click "OK" just click on "CANCEL",
    and your Workbook will display without data .
    2.Now go to "Design Mode" reinsert the query by refreshing  dataprovider(data analysis grid), and do the changes if you required and exit design mode,
    3. Save workbook and now insert the variable values  and check  the work book will work without any error.
    Thanks Hope it will help, coz it helped me.

  • How to execute a Macros automatically  when opening a workbook

    Hi people:
    I've done a macros routine in order to make some arithmetic operations. When I execute the macros manually works fine, however, when I open the workbook and put the filter values the macros isn't executed.
    Sub calculate()
    End sub
    Can anybody tell me if my code has to be in a special place or to have a special function in order to be executed any time the workbook is opened and refreshed?
    Thanks in advanced. Points for helpful answers

    Hi,
    I have done something very common. First for open the workbook:
    In the VBA Editor you have in your project in the "project window" two entries. Excel Objects and modules. In Excel Objets you have the workbook and the sheets. Got to the entry Workbook (double click) In the now opening code window you have to pulldown menus. Choose Workbook in the left one and Open in the right one. The code for the routine / handler appears automatically in the code window. Implement you code here or just call your routine.
    Changes: Do exactly the same as in the method descibed above but from the left pull down menu choose SheetChange. This method only has the Con that it will execute not only by refresh but also by every change on the sheet. If you want to have it only by refreshing then:
    SAP 3.5 - use the SAPBEXonRefresh method as described by Bob
    SAp 7.0 - int the properties window of your workbook you have a possible entry: In the register Exits you can enter your macro at "Run macro on refresh". If you set the option "Refresh Workbook on open" in the register General then you achieve what you want only by implementing the macro in "Run macro on refresh".

  • How to convert a workbook into PDF and broadcast as Email attachment

    When i open the workbook and go to Broadcast --> Setup a broadcast setting for this workbook. The distribution type is
    Broadcast E-mail; Broadcast E-mail (Bursting); Broadcast Portal; Broadcast Multichannel and Output Format only MS Workbook and Link to current Data. Here i miss the possibility as PDF.
    Where can i set up that the workbook should be broadcast as PDF.
    Any help appreciated.
    Thanks and kind rgerads,
    Murat

    Thanks all for your answers,
    i also read that with changing the format in Report designer then broadcasting via PDF. Is there no possibility for PDFs for MS Excel Workbooks? How does it work when opening the query in Report designer? What do i have to do there but it is no solution for us because in the workbooks we use GET BEX DATA formulas and just show parts of the analyisis grid. I need a proper solution how to use broadcaster converting workbooks into PDF an send them as email attachment
