How to refresh report data from bex query (BW) with parameters

Hello,
i hope someone can help me with my problem. I developed an desktop application, which loads (actual state) a report from the local file system. After setting the parameters, the report should be saved as a pdf file. Loading the report into the ReportDocument object and exporting the report to a pdf works fine. Setting parameters (without) a data source too. But now i can't refresh the data in the reports given by a parameter (e.g. time).
I know there are two methods to do this. Push and pull. I want to use the pull method, cause my program should exports different reports and i think it should be easier to handle this with this method.
On my development environment is installed:
Crystal Reports SP 4
MS Visual Studio 2010 (coding with C# .NET)
.NET Framework 4
SAP Integration Kit
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 SP1 - SDK libraries
Crystal Reports for Visual Studio 2010 SP1 - Runtime 32 bit
SAP GUI 7.20 (Compilation 3)
The bex query is enabled for external use from ole db for olap. Do i have forget something else?
Here is a part of my code:
        public ReportDocument doPullMethod(ReportDocument crReportDocument)
            TableLogOnInfo crTableLogOnInfo = crReportDocument.Database.Tables[0].LogOnInfo;
            ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = crTableLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo;
            crConnectionInfo.Password = "*******";
            crReportDocument.SetDatabaseLogon(crConnectionInfo.UserID, crConnectionInfo.Password, crConnectionInfo.ServerName, crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName);
            MessageBox.Show(crConnectionInfo.UserID + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.Password + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.ServerName + " _ " + crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName);
            for (int i = 0; i < crReportDocument.Database.Tables.Count; i++)
            //    crReportDocument.Database.Tables<i>.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogOnInfo);
                MessageBox.Show("TestConnectivity: " + crReportDocument.Database.Tables<i>.TestConnectivity());
            return crReportDocument;
Cause i'm using only one bex query, i know that the SetDatabaseLogon()-method should bring me the same result as the ApplyLogOnInfo()-method SAP Crystal Reports .NET API Guide
Exists an order which i have to follow? First setting parameter and then set the login informations or backwards? Cause i also get the "Failed to load database information" exception, when i set a parameter and TestConnectivity() returns false.
Do i have to activate the data refresh manually or will be the data refreshed automatically on export?
I searched in this forum (.NET - SAP Crystal Reports) and found only this thread which according to my problem:
[Re: Crystal report connects to BW RFC by .NET;
The question is assumed answered.

Hi Robin,
There is a SAP Integration Kit you need to allow CR to connect to SAP data sources. There isn't one for CR for VS 2010 and I don't believe there are the various extra options available in the SDK, no SDK access to the DB driver.
Possibly, Check the other post, download and run the app Ludek suggested, it will get the connection info for your report using RAS and then plug the output code into your code and see if that works. It should show the crdb_olap dll is the database driver, assuming that is the connection method you used when designing the report.
Pay attention to the database dll in the output from that app and verify it is on your PC in: C:\Program Files (x86)\SAP BusinessObjects\Crystal Reports for .NET Framework 4.0\Common\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\win32_x86
If that doesn't work then.....
The problem is, CR for VS 2010 ( version 13 ) is the runtime for BOE 4.0 ( version 14 ) which includes the Integration kit drivers on install. There is no standalone install of the database drivers. They are installed with CR 2011, which doesn't have a SDK included, CR for VS 2010 is also the Developer version for CR 2011.
Because of the "custom" connection requirements there is no SDK or access to the BW datasource extra options....
Also note that CR 2008 is not supported in VS 2010, it should work though as long as you stick to 2.0 -> 3.5 framework, no 4.0 Framework support in CR 2008 or BOE 4.0
You may want to try the SAP Integration Kit forum to see if anyone has been able to make this work or contact your account manager to verify if there are any plans to do what you are doing....

How do I recover data from my macbook pro with a disk that can't be repaired?

I'm in need of a data recovery solution. My Macbook pro (17") running OS X Mountain Lion won't boot and is stuck on the gray startup screen with the apple icon and spinning gear and disk utility states "Error: Utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files." Unfortunately, I don't have a back up and don't know how to access or back up the data on my drive. Mounting it to another computer as an external drive via firewire did not work. Does anyone know of any solutions to extract the data from my macbook pro hard drive before I reformat it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi there
I really am sorry about your problem. I have opened up my help centre and it too states '[...]back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall OS X, and then restore your backed-up data'. It then says: If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced.
I just noticed it says reinstall OS X. If it says this then this indicates a rather serious computing problem.
Help centre also states: If Disk Utility reports “overlapped extent allocation” errors, two or more files occupy the same space on your disk, and at least one of them is likely to be corrupted. [The next step is the following] Check each file in the list of affected files. [added by me]
A damage disk causes files to be corrupted. Also you can repair a disk by deleting corrupt files (i.e. one can still use a damaged disk providing it has been repaired). Disk Utility is able to help to repair corruption problems but not if your program files have become corrupted due to large-scale damaged disk.
I understand why you want to connect to another hard disk because you want to extract your files and I would probably do the same. I am on a 13-inch Macbook Pro trying to solve your problem.

How do I take data from a query sample record and query another block with it?

I have a master/detail form (6i) that contains a master block (staff), and a detail block (phone). I would like to be able
to query by phone number, but when I execute the query, I would like a 'search results' box to pop up that contains the
phone number I queried for, as well as some other staff info. There might be multiple records that match my query,
and I'd like them all to be listed (or list 10 or so, with a scrollbar). I'd like a push button next to each record that will take
me back to the master/detail window with that record displayed. So, I created a third block that is based on a joined
view of the staff and phone tables. It is a multi-record block, with 10 recs displayed and a scrollbar. It is in a separate
window. I don't want the user to have to navigate to that block, however, to perform their query. I would like them to be
able to enter the query in the phone number block, then somehow grab the phone number they've entered and use it to
query my 'search' block. This is the part I'm having trouble with. Can someone please help? THANKS!

Where do I put that line of code? I see that it goes at the Script part near the top, but how can I use that, I am pretty new to this language. I am not familiar with this line, where does it bind the value from the datagrid to the variable?
fullXML[myDataGrid.selectedIndex].FIELD_NAME;
myDataGrid would be the id from the grid I am guessing?
and selected index would be the channel.description part?
and FIELD_NAME; is the variable name?
does this go into a funtion or is it placed at the top where the variables are declared?

Binding data from BEx query to Google Maps

I have been able to create the SDK and install the Extension. I can see the Custom Components. I have added a BEx Data Source with Location and values. I have bound the source to the component, identified the Address Dimensionand and the Red Markers field. When I run it, my data is not diisplayed.
To utilize this Extension, do you have to write extra code? I have been searching everywhere and I am not finding any assistance.
Thank you,
Roger

I haven't tried this myself yet - but did you register your Google API key? Please see Google Maps in SDK Extension

How to exclude the data from the query ?

Hi all,
I got the following sql script :-

                         WHERE CGCV_COST_GROUP_CODE = 'ACOSG'
                         AND CGCV_GRADE_CODE_1 = 'G1' ) B
WHERE OS.sl_dt <= TO_DATE('31/05/2012', 'dd/mm/yyyy')

AND OS.SL_COST_GROUP_CODE(+) = 'ACOSG'
AND sl_grade_code_1 = 'G1'
order by sl_item_code, sl_dt
The following output will be :-
Date_______Item__Code________V1___V2

02/02/2012_AAA___ABC1005_____50____200

01/03/2012_BBB___ABC1005_____50____1000
04/04/2012_BBB___ABC1005_____12____1000
From the output, when group by item & code, I am actual needs only Code with CRE1005, but for item : AAA group, I cannot delete code of ABC1005 because it consists of code with CRE%. For item : BBB, where Code not like CRE% then the two records actually I don't need to select in my SQL.
Can anyone help me to think about ways of solving this issue ?
Thanks.

How to refresh changed data in a plannable template with the Enter Key

Hi,
The situation I face is as follows.
Integrated Planning is being implemented as a tool for budgeting. The user changes a value in a plannable cell on the portal and wishes to see the new updated data by pressing ENTER. Currently we have provided a REFRESH button so that the user gets the desired result.
Is it possible to see the updated value by pressing ' ENTER' and if so , whats the way around to do it.
thanks in advance.
Jaya

Hey guys,
I'm interested too in this solution. In BPS there is an additional function described in the HowTo Paper HowTo run planning functions on save and other events
Now I'm looking for this possibility in IP as well in excel-based IP and web-based IP. For example a copy function should be executed automatically when pushing the enter key.
Thanks a lot!

How to retrieve lost data from trash recently deleted with in 10 days.

My computer was recently hacked and they forwarded my mail for 2 days till I caught it. Also they had mail deleted after forwarding. Trash is empty. I want to see correspondence to protect my self. Thanks

Basics of File Recovery
Files in Trash
If you simply put files in the Trash you can restore them by opening the Trash (left-click on the Trash icon) and drag the files from the Trash to your Desktop or other desired location. OS X also provides a short-cut to undo the last item moved to the Trash -press COMMAND-Z.
If you empty the Trash the files are gone. If a program does an immediate delete rather than moving files to the Trash, then the files are gone. Recovery is possible but you must not allow any additional writes to the hard drive - shut it down. When files are deleted only the directory entries, not the files themselves, is modified. The space occupied by the files has been returned to the system as available for storage, but the files are still on the drive. Writing to the drive will then eventually overwrite the space once occupied by the deleted files in which case the files are lost permanently. Also if you save a file over an existing file of the same name, then the old file is overwritten and cannot be recovered.
General File Recovery
If you stop using the drive it's possible to recover deleted files that have not been overwritten by using recovery software such as Data Rescue II, File Salvage or TechTool Pro. Each of the preceding come on bootable CDs to enable usage without risk of writing more data to the hard drive. Two free alternatives are Disk Drill and TestDisk. Look for them and demos at MacUpdate or CNET Downloads.
The longer the hard drive remains in use and data are written to it, the greater the risk your deleted files will be overwritten.
Also visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on Data Recovery.

Calling ABAP report from BEx query

Good day!
I want to call ABAP report from BEx query by right-clicking on the field and using context menu. I know that transaction RSBBS is used (sender-receiver connecting), but I don't know how to transfare data to ABAP program
In ABAP program I want to know at least data from those cell in BEx query, that was right-clicked.

Depending on your requirement and environment, you have the following options:
1. Use an info spoke and make selections as you would in a query.
2. USe FM RS_VC_GET_QUERY_VIEW_DATA_FLAT to send the data to a file and your ABAP can read this file.

How to fetch latest data from database instead of clicking on Generate report in RSRT?

Hi all,
We are not able to get latest data of BEx query.Everytime we have to click on Generate Report button in RSRT for getting latest value.
Is there any way to get latest value automatically? We are not doing any changes in query.
When we click on Generate Report it is fetching data from Database instead of cache,so if it is possible to disable cache or any other workaround?
We have used time(0TIME) characteristic in query as a formula variable. We have applied a condition on that variable to fetch the first record (latest value). When we click on generate report, it fetches correct value with latest time but when we run the query without generate report, it is not fetching latest value. The cube on which this query is developed, is a realtime cube.

Once its in the request attributes it would be far better to use JSP Expression Language as well as the JSTL that Malcolm suggested So if the servlet code said:
     request.setAttribute("myList", al);Then using EL and the JSTL tags from <%@taglib prefix="c" uri="http://java.sun.com/jsp/jstl/core" %> the JSP would look something like:
<c:forEach items="${myList}" var="user">
<TR>
   <TD><c:out value="${user.name}" /></TD>
   <TD><c:out value="${user.fname}" /></TD>
   <TD><c:out value="${user.city}" /></TD>
   <TD><c:out value="${user.cont}" /></TD>
   <TD><c:out value="${user.age}" /></TD>
</TR>
</c:forEach>
