How to save report data as a plain text file

running APEX 4.0. I have to extract some query data to send via a text file. I see that my report options are RTF, CSV or XML - is there a way to get it out as TXT?
The Data Unload does have this option but the data is not from a single table (though I can dump it all into a temp table if this is the only way to export as TXT) but is it possible to have the end user run the Data Unload from an application or is this just a developers option?
The goal is to have a user be able to run the report and save it as TXT without having to "do" anything other than click a button.

I put it as a before header process on a blank page - when the page is called from a button, this htp.prn runs, you save the file, and with the
htmldb_application.g_unrecoverable_error := true; at the end, the rest of that page doesn't run.

How to export report to excel and to text file in previewer

How to export report to excel?
And, it takes long time for generate report to rtf or pdf file in previewer.
How to speed up the process? or, it's better generate report to text file directly by Run_product?
Please help!

You can generate report to tab delimite format that can be imported to excel.
As for the performance question, because reports can't specify what format when you run against previewer, so I don't know what previewer you are talking about. Generate to file is always faster than to your application previewer (assume) because you have one more step after output generated in the file: read from file and render it. Depends on the render and size of the output, it may have significant performance difference.

How to Save SQL query template as a text file

Hi,
How to save a SQL query template in my server as a Text file?? I tried using Text saver but it is not getting saved in the path specified.
Sweety

Hi Sweety,
In the transaction editor (for business logic), add your query template to a transaction. Add a Tracer after and link the Query property of the SQL Query action block to the Message property of the transaction. Run the transaction and you will see your Action Block's sql script as the message from the Tracer. You can do the same with the Server property, SD and ED, etc.
Also if you wish to dynamically load the sql script into the query, you can do that at run time by linking a script source to the query property. Useful to have if you have to use a complex expression to dynamically create your script. This sometimes occurs when you have multiple filtering inputs from a webpage and you can reduce the number of tables in a complex join when the fields are left empty. Normally this would be done as a way to improve the performance of the query.
Hopefully this is clear. If not I can probably provide some sample expressions.
Regards,
Mike

Save results of javascript operation to a plain text file

Hi,
How do you save to a file using Acrobat javascript? Not a PDF file - I know how to do that - but to a plain text file.
I have javascript that searches through a PDF document and generates some output. I can send the output to a Report (in PDF format, obviously) or to the console, but I can't see how to send it to a plain text file, which is what I need.
Any assistance gratefully appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim.

Ah, great, yes that seems to do what I want.
However, I get an error ...
My code is as follows:
function CreateOutput()
     // assembles text and puts it into the variable: output
     // e.g.:
     output = "Hello, world";
var output = "";
CreateOutput();
this.createDataObject("testfile.txt", output);
Unfortunately I get this error and I don't understand it!
InvalidGetError: Get not possible, invalid or unknown.
Doc.pageNum:6:Batch undefined:Exec
Obviously I'm doing somethign wrong ... but what?
Thanks very much,
Tim.

What happened to importing plain text files in iTunes?

I used to be able to export the playlist containing all the music I wanted to listen to as a plain text file. I would then import this file into a spread sheet, sort as I desired, assign each song a number, sort on that number and save the resulting groups to plain text files. I would then import these text files as playlists. It appears that this capability has disappeared in the current version of iTunes. I am capable of working with the xml if I have to, but that is more effort than I think is necessary. Have I missed something?

I have been thinking about what you are suggesting and even with your last reply it does not solve the problem. I suspect you still do not see what I am driving towards. I have playlists for all songs with 5 starts, all songs with 4 stars, all songs with number of plays less than n. I also have playlists of those three that have not been played in n days. I listen to those sometimes. I also listen to my existing playlists which contain subsets all music not christmas and have at least a 3 start rating. This last set is not smart at present. With the current setup, music in those first 3 playlists get played more often. Any smart playlist that has to include not played in the last x will not play those songs more often unless I play those playlists more often. At present, to generate those non smart playlists I export, divide, and import information. Apple has changed the format it accepts on input. I either have to accept their new import method and start programming, or find a smart playlist method that solves this problem. I do not believe that anything yet suggested for smart solves the problem. The closest I have come is 3 playlists. One smart and two dumb. The smart one is all songs with rating above 3 and not christmas that have not been played in last x and is not in the two dumb ones and limit to 100. The dumb ones start empty. Let it populate, drag the list to one of the dumb ones. Let the smart one recompute. Drag it to the second dumb one. Play one list on each device. When playlist finishes, blank the dumb one for that device, sync, let iTunes repopulate the smart list, drag to dumb list and sync again. In the long term, I think I am better off programming.

Hi teda,

Actually the report is created in webi java panel using RE SDK and is saved in Report Sample Folder then i'm saving it in user's personal category by following code
string query = "Select SI_PERSONAL_CATEGORIES From CI_INFOOBJECTS Where "
                     + "SI_INSTANCE=0 And SI_ID=" + reportID;
                InfoObjects infoObjects = infoStore.Query(query);
                InfoObject infoObject = infoObjects[1];
                Webi wreport = (Webi)infoObject;
                ObjectRelativeIDs personalIDs = wreport.PersonalCategories;
            /personalIDs.Add(Convert.ToInt32(categoryID));
               infoStore.Commit(infoObjects);
But the report is presents in the Folder also and in user's personal category also.
I dont want the report to be in the folder (Report Sample) if i saved it in user's personal category.
How can i do that?
any idea.
Please help me.
Thanks in advance

How to save the data present in TEXT BOX?

Hi friends i am able to create a text editor in one of my screen but i want to know how to save the data when the text is entered in that text box and retrive when they open the screen?

Hi ,
Please check the format below since it is based on a working code
first you need to create a text in s010 function module...
there should be some key based on which you plan to save the text..imagine it is Purchase order then..PO+item numner is always unique.eg:0090010(900PO/item10).so in the code you can append these two and they will be unique..so you can always retrieve them,overwrite,save them anytime you need
**************data declarations
TYPES: BEGIN OF TY_EDITOR,
EDIT(254) TYPE C,
END OF TY_EDITOR.
data: int_line type table of tline with header line.
data: gw_thead like thead.
data: int_table type standard table of ty_editor.
****************fill header..from SO10 t-code..when you save you need the unique key..youfill it here and pass it in save_text function module
GW_THEAD-TDNAME = loc_nam. " unique key for the text -> our unique key to identify the text
GW_THEAD-TDID = 'ST'. " Text ID from SO10
GW_THEAD-TDSPRAS = SY-LANGU. "current language
GW_THEAD-TDOBJECT = 'ZXXX'. "name of the text object created in SO10
*To Read from Container and get data to int_table
CALL METHOD EDITOR ->GET_TEXT_AS_R3TABLE
IMPORTING
TABLE = int_table
EXCEPTIONS
ERROR_DP = 1
ERROR_CNTL_CALL_METHOD = 2
ERROR_DP_CREATE = 3
POTENTIAL_DATA_LOSS = 4
others = 5.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
ENDIF.
loop data from int_table and save to int_line-tdline appending it.
*save the text
CALL FUNCTION 'SAVE_TEXT'
EXPORTING
HEADER = GW_THEAD
TABLES
LINES = InT_LINE
EXCEPTIONS
ID = 1
LANGUAGE = 2
NAME = 3
OBJECT = 4
OTHERS = 5.
IF SY-SUBRC 0.
ENDIF.
*To pass to Container
CALL METHOD EDITOR ->SET_TEXT
hope that the above sample with helps you solve the problem
Please check and revert,
Reward if helpful
