How to troubleshoot problems with Excel import

When I import a spreadsheet from Excel into Numbers, I get a notification window with a long list of errors encountered during the import.  I can deal with the formatting issues, and I've managed to get rid of most of the "unsupported formulas" errors.  However, I still have one stubborn "unsupported formulas" error.  How do I get Numbers to identify which cell(s) have unsupported formulas that were removed on import from Excel?

There are some triangle symbols, but they refer to using a BOOLEAN as a number.  That's not where the problem with unsupported formulas is, though.  Numbers says that it replaced the cells that had unsupported formulas with the contents of the cell at the time of import, which I interpret as meaning that I should be looking at cells that don't contain formulas.  My problem is that I have lots of cells that contain only numbers, and I somehow need to find that single cell that have an unsupported formula in the Excel version of the file.
Thanks for the suggestion, though.

  • 4.1EA2 - Still problems with Excel import

    Hello out there,
    I just tried importing a .xlsx with 4.1.0.18.37 and I still have an old issue and a new one:
    First, SQL*Developer seems not to determine the appropriate field length from the Excel file anymore. I usually uncheck the preview limit to 100 records. In my current import every text field was proposed as varchar2(26) even if there are just three characters in every record.
    Second, and this is an old one, numeric fields cannot be imported properly. I get ORA-1722 invalid number. This was introduced with 4.1EA1 and still is not fixed yet. I run both SQL*Developer and the database (11.2.0.2 if that matters) with german localization. Oddly enough, the SQL written to the log (named *-bad.sql) runs without problems when executed afterwards.
    I suspect SQL*Developer malformatting numeric values when sending it to the database. In the preview the numbers are shown with decimal comma, which is correct for display purposes and in the *-bad.sql they are correctly shown with decimal point which is what the database expects. So somewhere between these, there seems to be some NLS issue.

    >>First, SQL*Developer seems not to determine the appropriate field length from the Excel file anymore. I usually uncheck the preview limit to 100 records. In my current import every text field was proposed as varchar2(26) >>even if there are just three characters in every record.
    That's right, we're rounding up. Since we don't know how wide the actual stream is, we only previewed a 100 records, we round up to avoid problems at import time.
    Click the dropdown control, i'm guessing you'll see your '3' there.

  • Problem with Excel output format

    Hi Guys,
    I am creating a report in XML Publisher (not standalone). I am facing some problems could anyone please help me to figure out the issues.

    Hi Mahi,
    Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
    I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
    1) What about the negative values?
    if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
    2)How can we align header or data?
    Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
    3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
    Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
    Please help.
    Many Thanks,
    Pragati

  • Problem with export / import

    Hi everybody, I am having a problem with an import. I am doing an export with a value in an user exit:
    EXPORT V_NLQNR = V_NLQNR TO MEMORY ID 'QUANTL'
    And after I call import in another program:
    IMPORT V_NLQNR = V_NLQNR FROM MEMORY ID 'QUANTL'.
    But when I check the sy-subrc I am getting 4, so I don't get anything.
    Does anybody why?? Is there a problem if I call the export from an user exit??
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    I think you have the right idea.
    As a suggestion I would name my variables to make it clear which data is being
    exported/imported. I would also use different names on the left and right side of the = sign. 
    Here is a working example from programs that I use:
    In the first program
       EXPORT intercodata FROM g_data_exp TO MEMORY ID 'INTERCOWOS'.
         where g_data_exp is declared as a global variable
    In the second program
       IMPORT  intercodata TO g_data_imp FROM MEMORY ID 'INTERCOWOS'.
         where g_data_imp is declared as a global variable
    The syntax that you use ( p1 = dobj1 )  should work as well, just make sure that the variable v_nlqnr to the right of the equal sign has a value before the export.
    Regards

  • Getting Started with FCE - Problems with my imported files

    Hi,
    I'm trying to get started with Final Cut Express, but I'm experiencing lots of problems when I import my project from iMovie.
    My project contains video, which I imported into iMovie at 960 x 540. It also contains some keynote animations, which I exported from Keynote as quicktime files.
    When I export my files to FCE, I instantly get problems.
    1) When I add the imported file to the sequence, I get an "Attention the clip does not match the sequence's setting or any of your sequence settings" error.
    2) Whether I choose to translate my settings or not, I try to play the video in the timeline, but there is a continuous beeping sound, no audio from my video and when it hits the keynote animations, it just says "unrendered" or "media offline".
    Please can you offer any advice on how I can get started with FCE more successfully.
    Thanks!

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    (please specify iMovie and FCE version)
    Well, your sequence settings in FCE should be DV-PAL 48 Khz.
    Create a new sequence.
    From iMovie and Keynote, export your movie with quicktime conversion andd select DV-PAL 48 kHz (*And Not* DV Stream...). This material should play without rendering because his format and codec match the sequence's codec.
    Import your files and everything should be OK.
    Michel Boissonneault
    The audio should be AIFF 48 kHz 16 bit linear PCM

  • Problem with the imported video clips

    Hi! I'm very new to Premiere Pro, so please don't scold me :)
    I have a video file (.AVI) that I want to remove the audio from, and insert a new audio track.
    Here's my problem: When I import the AVI file into Premiere, and double-click it to preview it, it is really glitchy. The video is 1 minute long. During ~5 seconds in the very beginning, the whole video's "video" track is played, extremely speeded up (It plays through it all). The rest of the video consists of a freezed frame, and the audio is played in normal pace.
    I do not know which codec the AVI-file is encoded with, is this relevant?
    When I restarted Premiere the first time, it told me that it had to download codecs. I pressed OK and the codecs was downloaded and installed okay, but the problem remains.
    I copied the .AVI-file directly from my camera (Canon IXUS 700 I believe).
    When I play the original AVI file with VLC, everything runs perfectly with audio and video.
    I'm totally clueless, anyone have a clue how I can solve this?
    Any help at all appreciated, thanks in advance!

    >I do not know which codec the AVI-file is encoded with, is this relevant?
    Very relevant. Please provide
    these details to help us help you.

  • Problem with the importing wizard

    Hei,
    I have a dll which I want to import to the Labview project. So, I decided ti use the import wizard, but when parsing the header file, Labview freezes. I am using a couple of structures (3) and a handle. I have also read that the wizard has problems when dealing with complex data. What would be best solution for adding it to the project? To in a way "unbundle" the struct and then create a many simple variables and then parsed to dll.  (This would be a pain)
    How to deal with the handle or will wizard easy understand that?
    I am really looking for a painless solution  
    thanks for the help

    Can you post the header file for the DLL?
    Through a process of trial and error you could determine which functions causes problems with the wizard (comment out half the functions, attempt to import, repeat) and then manually create the LabVIEW VIs for the troublesome ones. If there aren't too many functions, you could do it all by hand, which isn't that hard if you have some understanding of C (and if you don't, you'll undoubtedly have other problems when the wizard doesn't do the right thing).

  • Performance Problems with Excel Client

    Hello all,
    We installed BPC 7.5 SP7 NW on our customeru2019s system and experience massive performance problems on our local clients in combination with Excel and MS Office in general.
    u2022When opening u201CMaintain Dimension Membersu201D it takes some time (approx. 2 min) to open the Excel Sheet with the elements. The u201CSave to Serveru201D as well as the u201CProcess Dimensionu201D also takes time to execute. When executing u201CProcess Dimensionu201D the sandbox appears and it takes approx 2 min until the Process popup window appears. The process itself has normal performance.
    u2022We also experienced slow performance with the opening or saving dynamic templates dialogue in the Excel Client.  It takes some time until this dialogue appears.
    In general, we experience slow performance every time BPC is opening a pop up window! We also experience slow performance when opening a (non BPC) MS Office document.
    In order to resolve this issue we looked at the following notes and forum entries:

  • House Bank number problem with BSP import

    Hi,
    I have a problem when i import an bank statement that i get an error that the house banknumber is not the same as in de import file. I believe the problem is that in de house bank definition in SAP there are dots (.) between the housebank number like 12.56.58.789 and in the import file on row :25 there are no dots between the number 125658789. Does anybody know how to solve this problem ? i tried something with the add-on format definition and find out that the field "AccountInfo" need some changes.
    The expression that is used in the bfp file is      (?<=:25:)[^\r\n]*(?=\r\n)
    Can somebody help me?
    THANKS
    Mark

    Hi Mark,
    The rule for importing data from a bank statement is that house bank account defined in B1 and the data filled into account number field should match bit by bit. So in your case there are two options:
    1. change the account number definition in B1 to remove all the dots.
    2. if that's impossible, you have to change the BFP file via Format Definition add-on to insert the dots into the pure digit series. that could be done by assigning a mapping method to the account number field.
    use concat() function and substring() function together. about the usage of the function ,you can refer to the online help of the tool.
    Cheers,

  • Anyone seen this problem with Excel 2003?

    We're developing a Microsoft Excel-based app. The help system uses HTML Help (.chm) format, and works just fine with Excel 2007 and 2010. However, since a lot of potential users out there are still using older versions, we've been asked to adapt the app for Excel 2002 and 2003.
    The help system works, more or less, with Excel 2002, but when we try it with Excel 2003 the tri-pane is missing. The default topic appears but the left-hand pane containing the navigation system (TOC, Index and Search) is missing. Consequently, users can't move away from the default topic. Has anyone come across this problem before, and do you know how to fix it?

    I cannot help you with this one other than to say I haven't seen any other such reports. That may suggest it is worth checking for some small difference you haven't identified yet.
    Of course it could also mean there aren't many people with that workflow.

  • Performance and usability problems with Illustrator imports

    I am usually an enthusiast advocate for Adobe Software. As a UI/Interaction designer I regularly showcase your products as a shining example.
    That's why I am somewhat frustrated about the Flash Catalyst Beta. I trust you guys to come out with SOMETHING GREAT eventually, but I have just spend an entire day with Catalyst and it was not particularly a joy. Couldn't you have released it a bit later to save me the frustration?
    Situation:
    - Medium size Adobe Illustrator CS4 import (10 screens/stages with 20-100 Illustrator objects per screen)
    - Target : 800x600 embedded UI for medical product
    - Illustrator file chosen as starting point
    Performance / reliability problems include
    - Crashing (Vista Core2Duo with 2gig of Ram)
    - Super poor performance (wait 8 seconds to hide/show a layer)
    - No show of thumbnail images anywhere
    - No matching of document size (exact 800x600 from Illustrator became 800x599)
    - Playing the file did not work
    Usability issues
    - Poor test display
    - Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!)
    - Window selecting does not work well
    - No hand tool
    - No ability to lock layers
    - Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it)
    - No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points
    - etc. etc.
    Building a wireframe version from the ground up (with Illustrator import) seemed to work fine
    I played around with the MS Blend beta for a while, and while the basic concept of your product is much more clear, the execution of the MS product in the beta phase was lightyears ahead in terms of stability and usability
    I'm sure you can do better!
    Koen

    Koen,
         Thank you for the detailed feedback about the performance problems you have experienced and your thoughts about features you would like. Let me respond to each of your points
    Performance: We are aware that Catalyst doesn't perform well with large complex files. We have made many performance improvements since the current plublic beta, so you should find Catalyst more responsive with larger projects when the next beta is posted.
    Here are a few things you can do to work around the performance issues you are seeing with the current beta:
    - Consider rasterizing complex elements that don't need to scaled in Catalyst
    - In Catalst turn complex artwork into optimized graphics using the "Convert to optimized graphics" in the float HUD (heads up display panel)
    We have also found that particularly on Windows that Catalyst can run out of memory with large files. This area is also being worked on so stay tuned for the next beta.
    Features:
    - Poor test display [tv] Do you mean the design display doesn't match the appearance of the published project?
    - Poor match with Illustrator file (things seem to be rendered differently!) [tv] we have fixed a lot of bugs here. Expect this to improve a lot in the next beta
    - No hand tool - [tv] coming soon :-)
    - No ability to lock layers [tv] coming soon :-)
    - Cluttered interface (Not enough space for the "stage"or what you call it) [tv] Yes, Catalyst currently cannot dock/undock panels
    - No way to resize Illustrator elements from one of 9 edge/center points [tv] This is also a known limitation. I agree it is useful
    I hope the next beta comes closer to meeting your expectations. A lot of performance work and new features has been done since the last public posting, so look forward to beta II.

  • Problem with EXPORT IMPORT PROCESS in ApEx 3.1

    Hi all:
