How to transfer data between spreadsheets without using Business Objects?

Hello, every time I try and log onto the business objects platform I keep getting "this system can be contacted but there is no central management server running at port 6400".  All I need to do is pass variables between spreadsheets. Both files are located in the same folder. Below are the links ive tried but have been unsuccessful  to pass data.
(This link I used the swf loader component child and flash variables task Daya posted on Feb 15. However nothing loaded. The link wasnt a link i could display is in a browser. So i kept getting 0% when in preview mode.
Passing values from dashboard to dashboard with Flash Variables
Next I tried the following link. I did everything word for word and was able to display both files on the html page, but no link or connection between them existed. I would select a state and noting happened to the other swf files chart. Does this need to be in the Business Objects platform?
Dashboards 4.0: Connect to an external
Lastly , I used the link below. I followed everything and was able to get interaction from the parent to child however with only the files that were available on this thread. Their URL was this http://myxcelsius.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/child.swf?salesman=Schrute,Dwight. I get the concatenation but I dont get how this URL was generated? How do I develop my URL? My URL is able to display in a browser. My URL is
http://kln-ftvp/KLNPheonix//LinkToReport.htm?fqn=MyEnterprise.Public.graphtest&run=true
SWF Loader shows 100% instead of Dashboard.
Even with my URL being able to display in internet explorer, I still only show 100% and a blank screen. Can anyone help me with any of the issues I am having trouble with? Your help is most appreciated. Thank you.

It looks like you have more than one problems so it might be good to separate them out.
Issue 1 - Logging on to BusinessObjects
You say that when you try log on to the BO Platform you get the error message there is no central management server running on port 6400. I'm assuming you are trying to do this from the Dashboard designer.
Does it work when you try to log on from the web browser?
Make sure that you enter the correct system name in the system field when trying to log on from Designer. If you are unsure, either check what system name is used when you log on from your browser or check with your BO administrator.
Issue 2 - Passing values to a child dashboard
If you try to preview the dashboard in the designer, remember that the swf loader doesn't work in preview mode, so whatever you are trying to display won't be visible.
First of all you need to have 2 separate flash files that works independently of each other. The one that you are planning to use as a child flash, make sure that you create the flash variables so you can pass variables to it and use them to filter your data if that is your requirement. But hold off on that for now.
When you have 2 working flash files, save them both to the BI Launch Pad (or InfoView if you are on 3.1) and make sure they both work there. Then get the opendocument url for the child dashboard and try to open it in your browser directly using this url. If that works, use the same url in the swf viewer in the parent dashboard, save the parent dashboard back to BI Launch Pad and open it. It should now work.
Let me know if you have any problems with these steps.
Cheers,
Josh

  • How to transfer data between a multi-thread dll build with LV7 and MS C++, using envent programing method.

    It is easy to transfer data between a simple input/output dll build with LV and an external code like C++, but when data are available inside a loop running in the dll(in fact thread running in LV); How can I read them or receive an handle pointer to the calling C++ application when new data are ready.

    If you're using LabVIEW 7, you can use the PostLVUserEvent function to fire an event for an event structure in LV. Refer to the Using External Code in LV manual.
    Or you could use datasocket for this. The datasocket activex dll is nids.dll. You could have the class wizard generate wrappers for you or if you have Measurement Studio, you could use the custom wrappers it provides to communicate between the VI and dll.
    I hope this helps

  • ODI: How to transfer data between Essbase apps

    Hi,
    I'm using old Planning version 3.5 on Essbase 7.1.6. It has no partition options between apps. XREF function work slowly. I need to transfer data with transformations between two Essbase Apps. I'd like to use ODI 10.1.3.6.4 to do it. I'd like to transfer data between essbase apps via Staging Area.

  • How to transfer data between planning functions in BPS

    Hi All,
    I have requirement, where user will enter the sales qty plan in manual planning function and need to read the zinfo object to distribute the sales qty accordingly to manufacturing plant and push into infocube.
    To fulfill above requirement, i'm thinking to create one manual plan and user will enter the total sales qty and create one more exit planning function to distribute the sales qty for each plant.
    For above approach, i need to get the data enter in mannual planning function to exit planning function.
    Can anyone let me know how to transfer data from one planning function to other planning function under same planning level and package.
    Thanks you,
    santosh.

    Hi Santosh,
    You can achieve the Distribute functionality using the Standard Planning Function for Distribute (Refer SAP Help for details).
    Moreover you would not have to do anything specifically to transfer data from one Planning Function to another. The application picks up the latest data records for processing whatever Function you are executing. If you want to execute a series of Planning Functions you could use a Planning sequence to achieve the same.
    Hope it helps

  • How to transfer data between different tables in an Oracle 10g databse?

    I have to do the following: there are 5 database tables in our Oracle 10g database that store certain data. Then there are 2 new tables where we want the data to go to. My task is to somehow transfer all the data that is in the first 5 tables and insert it in the 2 new ones. All tables are in the same database. The challenge lies in the fact that the structures of the tables are very dissimilar so it won't be a matter of a simple INSERT SQL query.
    The data access tier of our application is developed in JAVA. We use EJB. So one way I am thinking of doing the above mentioned data transfer is to simply code it in the JAVA backed. But that might be to slow, there are millions of records in those first 5 tables. What is the best way to do something like that? Perhaps a custom (Perl?) script or some such?
    Thanks.

    The problem is that the way the data is stored in the old tables you cannot write a query that would return it in such a format that you could immediately insert it in the new table without some formatting. Let me illustrate with an example. To pull the data from the old tables I use this query:
    SELECT
         SXML_DOCUMENT_DATA.VALUE As DocumentValue,
    SXML_ELEMENT.NAME As ElementName
    FROM
         SXML_DOCUMENT,
         SXML_DOCUMENT_DATA,
         SXML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL,
         SXML_ELEMENT,
         SXML_TYPE
    WHERE
         SXML_TYPE.XML_TYPE_KEY = SXML_DOCUMENT.XML_TYPE_KEY
    AND     SXML_DOCUMENT.XML_DOCUMENT_KEY = SXML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL.XML_DOCUMENT_KEY
    AND     SXML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL.XML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL_KEY = SXML_DOCUMENT_DATA.XML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL_KEY
    AND     SXML_ELEMENT.XML_ELEMENT_KEY = SXML_DOCUMENT_DATA.XML_ELEMENT_KEY
    AND     SXML_TYPE.NAME = 'DA_UNIT_COMMITMENT'
    AND     (SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'resource'
         OR SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'resourceType'
         OR SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'commitmentType'
         OR SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'startTime'
         OR SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'endTime'
         OR SXML_ELEMENT.NAME = 'schedulingCoordinator')
    ORDER BY
         SXML_DOCUMENT.NAME,
         SXML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL.XML_DOCUMENT_DETAIL_KEY,
         SXML_DOCUMENT_DATA.XML_DOCUMENT_DATA_KEY,
         SXML_ELEMENT.NAME;
    The results from the SQL query above look like this:
    DOCUMENTVALUE | ELEMENTNAME
    1 | ALAMIT_7_UNIT_1 | resource
    2 | GEN | resourceType
    3 | BRS8 | schedulingCoordinator
    4 | IFM | commitmentType
    5 | 2008-07-29T18:00:00:00 | startTime
    6 | 2008-07-30T00:00:00 | endTime
    7 | ALAMIT_7_UNIT_1 | resource
    8 | GEN | resourceType
    9 | BRS8 | schedulingCoordinator
    10 | IFM | commitmentType
    11 | 2008-07-29T00:00:00 | startTime
    12 | 2008-07-29T04:00:00 | endTime
    and so on. The type of data repeats every 6 records. And the values of each 6 records corresponds to 1 row in the new table, which looks like this:
    schedulingCoordinator | resource | resourceType | commitmentType | startDate | endDate
    1| 1 | 27 | GEN | IFM | 2008-07-29T18:00:00:00 | 2008-07-30T00:00:00
    2| 1 | 27 | GEN | | 2008-07-29T00:00:00 | 2008-07-29T04:00:00
    So hopefully now you see the challenge. It is not as simple as writing a SQL query that returns result rows corresponding 1 to 1 to a row in the new table. Somehow I need to take the first 6 result rows from that big SQL query and put them in the first row of the new table. Then the next 6 and put them in the second row and so on. And also, we are talking about millions of records. What happens if I process the first 2 million and then some error occurs? Do I start from the beginning again? One idea I have is to process the data in chunks, say process 500 results, commit, process another 500, commit, and so on.

  • HT1296 How to transfer data between 2 iphones while not having the old one

    How can I transfer or sync  all the data from my previous iphone to the new one while not having the first(it's not working due to high voltage problem of the area),and of course not loosing anything?

    Correct, you do not need your old iPhone. All you need is your old iPhone's backup. If you had an old model iPhone and wanted to replace it with a newer one, restoring it from a backup of your older one would be the process you would use.
    Make sure before you start that your new iPhone is either really new or completely erased. If you did not just buy it new, do Settings > General > Reset > Erase all content and settings before restoring it from your old iPhone's backup.

  • How to transfer data between the different states in "state machine"?

    I want to transfer some data from one state to another. I tried the tunnel, but it can't work since it's the case structure. Does "state machince" support data transfer? Or any other methods I can do?
    Thank you.

    Yes, adding a shift register to the outer while loop should work, make sure to initialize it.  Perhaps you could attach your vi so we could have a look at it.  Be sure to give us as much info as to what your goal for the vi is.

  • How can share data between jsp pages using beans??

    any one can give me code for 2 jsp pages with bean that share data for them

    <jsp:usebean name="yourBeanName" type="com.whatever.foo" scope="session"/>
    this will look for a bean named yourBeanName in the scope specified by the scope attribute. If none was found, the container will instantiate one with the no arg constructor for your bean and place it into the proper scope.
    if your bean had a method getName(), you could then on your jsp do:
    <%=yourBeanName.getName()%> to print the results of the method to the page. there are other ways to do the actual placing of the output on the page, but this is the most direct.
