Excel spreadsheets created on PC shoe up as "read only" on my iMac 27 also in Excel. How do I correct?

Are you saying when you open the Info window on the file and try to change the permission it won;t let you? Do you get any messages? Is the account youare using an Admin account?
If you could post a screen shot of the Info window opend on the file in question it could help.

When I create a hyperlink, it removes the : from the url when a person clicks on the link. How do I stop this from happening?

In both Indesign CS 5, 6 and Adobe Acrobat, the hyperlinks I create, remove the colon making it a failed hyperlink. I am at a loss as how to move forward.

Yes, it ends up looking like "http//website.com"

Create new users from an excel spread sheet

Hi Everyone.
I am very new to SAP and I have only done the ABAP programming course last month.
To make mme become familiar with ABAP - I was given a task of creating users from an Excel spread sheet - This will be used later on when we implement the new SAP system and decommision the legacy system.
I am just wondering If anyone has created such program - I would appreciated If I can have a copy So I can learn how it is done -
At the moment, I was thinking of using BAPI_USER_CREATE1 and BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMIT to create users and optimise the creation call. Is there any thing else that I should be aware of ? I'd be appreciated if someone drop me some ideas - Thanks in Advance

Hi Samantak.
Thanks for your quick response.
Since posting the question, I discovered that within 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' sub-call statements - comit is already done. Now my questions are:
1) Do I still need 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMIT' to optimise the CREATE new newusers call ? Apparently, yes.......I am curious for the reason 'why' since comitting is already done.
2) I did an interactive call of the 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' - a user id was actually created in the system. Now, my second question is.. Is there a way of calling 'BAPI_USER_CREATE1' without comitting the data (i.e. create user record on file)..
I want to call this whout comitting because I want to sort out the number of 'good' records from the supplied data list - and presenting the success percentage to the users before comitting the data.
Thanks

No i haven't mixed up.But the file from where i have to retrieve the data is in csv format.Even though i created another csv driver.and tried but i cud not find a solution to load/transfer a set of records from one file(in Excel/csv format) to another file(in mdb format).plz help me.Is there any other methods for this data transfer.A csv file is NOT an excel file.
The fact that Excel can import a csv file doesn't make it an excel file.
If you have a csv file then you must use a csv driver or just use other code (not jdbc) to access it. There is, normally, a ODBC (nothing to do with java) text driver that can do that.

SAP BO XCelsius : Drilldown from pie chart to raw data ( Excel Spread Sheet) in Xcelsius

Hi,
I am working on a dashboard where my requirement says, Drill down data from Pie-Chart to Raw data ( Excel Spread sheet).
Clicking on one pie should show me the required data in Excel format
May I know if this is possible to create from Dashboard design tool SAP R4
Thanks
Javeed

Hi Javeed,
Drilling data from pie charts is very much possible. The data drilled down can be shown either in spread sheet format via components called "Scorecard" "List View". But if its specified that you need the current data drilled down to a separate excel spread sheet only then, you may need to use the third party components for it.
There are many such components available for free. There are components available which are paid as well. You will have to find out which ones are free. Check out the threads below.

I need to download data from Oracle data base into a Excel spread sheet

I need to download data from Oracle data base into a Excel spread sheet.
Any input will be appreciated.

Goes something like this:
1) create an ODBC connection (on NT/WIN: ODBC DATA SOURCES in the control panel, create a USER DSN.
2) in EXCEL-menu: DATA->GET EXTERNAL DATA->CREATE NEW QUERY. In the wizzard you will see the DSN created in the previous step. Select that source.
3) follow the wizzard.
Hope this does any good...

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity?

I want to open excel spread sheets make additions and export back to pc users. Is numbers suitable for this activity? I am using a MACBook Air

just read this in an other answer:
Pages can open docx files, Numbers can open xlsx files. Each can export to can export .doc or .xls to the newest Word or Excel format.respectvely, but not to the more recent .docx or .xlsx.
Translation is not perfect in either direction. Numbers and Excel handle some similar features (eg. pop-up menus vs data validation) differently, and the translator cannot translate from one implementation to the other.
If much of your work is going to be transferred between your machine and Windows machines running either MS Excel or MS Word, with editing taking place at both ends of the tunnel, then you'll probably be better off with Office, or one of the Office clones on the Mac end.

Problem in writing data to excel spread sheet

Hi Folks,
I have developed a jdbc application that writes data to excel spread sheet.while trying to write data to excel, it could not write date values properly.it is writing 00.00.0 for all the date feilds.
Can some one help here.
Thanks in advance.

You can try VistaJDBC at http://www.easyhr.com.au/software/easy_mdb_mde_compactor.htm .
Otherwise you can write your code to csv/xml/dbase III format, since Excel can open those file format easily.

Hello, if you have the font that Photoshop is supposed to use to write the barcode, and each image is also listed in the spreadsheet, you can use the little known feature called variables: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/photoshop/cs/using/WSfd1234e1c4b69f30ea53e41001031ab64-7417a.h tml

Exporting each articles button names to an Excel Spread Sheet or other form

Is there a way to export a list of all the button names in each article to an Excel spread sheet or some other form? If someone knows of a script that does this that would work to. The button names are based on their function: OL = Overlay, TAB = Tab and BTN = Button. Here is an example of one of the articles that we have gone through and named the buttons and what they do. We just do not want to have to go to each button in each article and copy and past it to an Excel doc.

@stephen0218 – with the following line or the ones that you are using:
app.documents[0].buttons.everyItem()
you will hardly address all buttons in a document.
At least not in a document that is prepared for ADPS.
You'll get just the ones that sit plain on the page: not inside groups, not inside other objects like rectangles or states of MultiStateObjects (MSOs).
You will have more luck if you are using "allPageItems" and sorting out the buttons.
But be aware that "allPageItems" is blind to objects (also buttons) in states of MSOs that do not belong to the active state.
