How to read XML SpreadSheet using OleDb Provider

Hi All,
I have generated an xml spreadsheet (*.xls) using XSL. I have another program that reads this spreasheet and processes it.
Dim sConnectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=" + filnavn + ";" + "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"
Dim objCon As OleDbConnection = New OleDbConnection(sConnectionString)
objCon.Open()
Dim objCmdSelect As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM [General$]", objCon)
Dim objAdapater As OleDbDataAdapter = New OleDbDataAdapter()
objAdapater.SelectCommand = objCmdSelect
Dim _DSGen As DataSet = New DataSet()
objAdapater.Fill(_DSGen)
I m facing an issue while opening a connection to the generated spreadsheet. It says "{"External table is not in the expected format."}".
My Connection string is
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" + "Data Source=" + filnavn + ";" + "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;"
Do i need to change anything to this string ? I tried using a dataset and calling dataSet.ReadXml(excelFileName); But the dataset doesnt contain my table. Any inputs on how to read an xml spreadsheet ?

How to read StarOffice Spreadsheet using Oracle Form?

Hi all
I want to read StarOffice spreadsheet with few columns in Oracle forms.
I have done this with Microsoft Excel but not with StarOffice.
Does anyone have idea regards how to do this?
Rgds

We've done this using the OpenOffice 2.4 / LibreOffice UNO interface. There are a bunch of JAR files which are distributed together with OpenOffice: unoloader.jar, juh.jar, jurt.jar, ridl.ar, unoil.jar (in the %OPENOFFICE_HOME%/program/classes directory). You can find the documentation here (technically it's easier than OLE because OpenOffice provides a Java implementation of UNO. However, the documentation is far from being as good as Microsoft's Office API docs):

How to read XML message present in Table using PL/SQL?

Hi,
How to read XML content present in Table using PL/SQL .And is it possible to parse the xml uisng xslt and insert xml output in same table again ?
Thanks!

Late reply, but hopefully better late than never.
You can possibly do it all via a single SQL statement, such as {message:id=4232077}
XMLTable Syntax can be found at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/functions228.htm#CIHGGHFB (for 10.2 users) else find your correct version at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html

HI Hareesh,
i have gone through that blog.
i tried it...but i am getting mapping error no receiver determination fond because there are so many excel files.
my data is available on sharedString.xml but also it is in not same order.
i have no clue how to handle this part form the blog.
"This way our mapping will receive all data from the sheet in an XML format. The only thing that's left is to create an XSD file from the XML file we received in order to be able to use it in the mapping and as our Service Interface and we can proceed with mapping. As you can see from the sheet.xml files all the data is placed with column name and row number so it's not that difficult to map it to an table type format using the Message Mapping only (no java, abap mapping required)."

Reading XML file using BAPI I must use adapters .

Reading XML file using BAPI and then uploading that xml file data into SAP using BDC.
I cant take file on to my Application server I am getting the file dynamically from other file server and I need to use BAPis to read data from XML file.please tell me what should be my Import,Export and Tables parameterrs should be.
Thanks

Hi,
Import, export and table parameters for BAPI is required, without that BAPI will not able to collect the data from XML. What you need to do is write a Zprogram and collect the data, store that data in internal table and call the BAPI by passing required parameters.
Different Scanarios:
1) Before calling a BAPI write some other program which collects the data from XML and create a UNIX file. Try to get the data from UNIX FILE
2) If you see the XML tags, data will be in side that tags, try to get the data from XML tags and store that data in one SAP table. You can use the BAPI by fetching the data from table
3)Create a table and store the data in the table. Use the table in SAP to extract the data.
BAPI won't work without any parameters, you have to pass some parameters then the BAPI will return some values.
Hope i am clear.
Thanks&Regards,
