Importing Excel Sheets

Does anyone have an idea how I can import/extract data from an excel spreadsheet in JSP.
I need to extract data from an Excel sheet and store it in a database.

hi!
It's very very simple to do
Just download load the POI project (poi-2.5.1-final-20040804.jar file) from the Apache Jakarta site - it's a open source project
just put the jar file into your class path.
import the packages which i mentioned below...(it's a minimum requirement)
import org.apache.poi.hssf.usermodel.*;
import org.apache.poi.hssf.*;
import org.apache.poi.poifs.filesystem.*;and refer the document (for coding) which include in that jar file itself... they included the example like Openning the workbook and fetching the rows....
so u develop the rest of the things...
Note: download bin & src.

Empty rows from imported excel sheet

Hi all
I use Intelligent Explorer 8.3 and have an imported excel sheet in the query.
If I process this file I receive a lot of empty rows on top the data I like receive. But in this excel sheet there are no empty rows. What could be the problem?
Is there a setting which I can change the path to this excel sheet?
The only way I know is to rename the excel file that I get a message box to set the path again.
Thank you very much in advance
Michael

I solved the problem with the empty rows already. The problem was that Brio retrieves empty rows if they are used before. There is obviously a difference between empty rows which are used and which are unused. But I am still trying to find the excel settings where you can change the path to the excel sheet.
Thank you anyway

Import excel sheet for update of a table

Hello
I'd like to import data from an excel spreadsheet or CSV file. Is there a simple way to update the table with this data?
Can import handle one spreadsheet containing data from 2 tables of which one is to be updated.
Eg. column 2 in rows 1 to 4 contain the foreign key values. The remaining rows contain the data to be uploaded to the table (UPDATE no INSERT)
Thanks
Cindy

Cindy,
Sorry - I misunderstood your initial question.
Unfortunately, our import wizard only does INSERTS - not UPDATES.
What you could do as a workaround is upload your data into a staging table, then run an update script to update your actual base table. Once you are done, you can delete all of the data from the stage table, and perform the update operation again.

Imported Excel Sheet Rows won't UNHIDE

Imported basic checkbook type spreadsheet from Excel into Numbers. In original, left column has dates, but not every row -- some dates had multiple entries so several cells in column A were blank. When I imported all seemed to go okay... but then I notice some row numbers skipped. The formulas are all still correct -- but even "unhide all rows" doesn't get them to expose.
Any thoughts?

was able to answer my own question -- seems it automatically turned on a filter for blanks in that column .... hmmmm

Importing Excel sheet in ODI in Linux (Ubuntu)

HI,

I have tried with the File Technology but there I am unable to do customized reverse engg it is throwing error i.e "custom reverse engineering is set for model and cannot be used at table level in ODI", so can't import the data.
Please help me resolving this issue.
Thanks In Advance

Take a look on this article.
ODI_JDBC_EXCEL - ODIExperts.com
Regarding the agent, you have to install it on windows machine and put the excel files there so that agent can access these files. Since the agent is configured with the master repository, when you execute the scenario from Linux machine, select windows agent and execute. That's all.

Import Excel to nabula nattable

Hi ,
I am using nabula nattable and i am try to import excel sheet to my nattable so please how to import excel sheet to my nabula nattable ? please help me sir ...

I'm currently writing one, not sure when I am able to finish.
These are the only resources currently available I know:

Can I use Power Query to Import a table from Excel sheet range which starts not from the top row?

Hi,
Being an experienced Excel user before Power BI, I am just starting to explore the M and Power Query capabilities, and need help already (ain't easy to google this use case somehow):
I need to import the table which sits in the Excel file with header row in the row 17 of Excel sheet, with some metadata header in the preceding rows of the columns A and B.
01: Report name, Quick Report
02: Report Date, 1/1/2014
17: Employee Name, Manager, etc...
18: John Doe, Matt Beaver, etc.
Both (a) direct attempt to load as Excel file and (b) the indirect way through [From Folder] and formula in custom column -- both lead to the same error: "[DataFormat.Error] External table is not in the expected format."
Specifically, I tried to use the [Power Query -> From File -> From Folder] functionality, select an Excel file and add a custom column to access the binary content: [Add Custom Column] with formula "=Excel.Workbook([Content])".
It looks like Power Query expects a rectangular range with headers full-width followed by a contiguous table range to import anything, and refuses to load if that is not the case...
QUESTION: Is there any way to load whatever-formatted data from Excel first, and then manipulate the overall imported range (like referring to rows starting from 17th using "Table.SelectRows" etc.) to read the actual data? Reading and using
the metadata from header would be a bonus, but that comes second... The main issue is to get something from a non-regular Excel file to later work with using M formulae ...
Thanks!
SAM

Finally found the answer to this one in ():
You Cannot Open a Password-Protected Workbook
If the Excel workbook is protected by a password, you
cannot open it for data access, even by supplying the correct password with
your connection settings, unless the workbook file is already open in the
Microsoft Excel application. If you try, you receive the following error
message:
Could not decrypt file.
ANSWER: So, will have either weave in the work with temporary unprotected files or requires opening them before updating the data source (although this almost defeats the purpose of automation...)
ANSWER to ORIGINAL QUESTION: password was preventing Power Query from reading the Excel file. For solution see above.
Thanks anyway for participation and inspiration, Imke!

Identifying text file names and importing on single Excel sheet

Hey!
Does anybody can help me with Excel VBA macro code in order to import data from text files into single Excel spread sheet? I want to create User Form where user can select start and end date of interest and macro code will import
bunch of text files depending on user demands...

text files covering whole year):

- Make a new Excel file
- Open the VBA editor
- Add a Userform
- Place 2 text boxes and 1 command button on that form
- Paste all code below into the code module of the form
- Download this file:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/35239054/FileSearch.cls
- In the VBA editor press CTRL-M and import that file
- Save the Excel file in the directory that contain your text files
- Run the form
You can format the columns of the sheet as you like, e.g. column E:H should be a number with 5 decimal places. The top row can contain some headings. My code did not affect the formatting or the headings.

How to import a dynamic excel sheet to a dynamic database table.

I am not a developer, but am looking at what is possible in SQL server as I am planning an implementation strategy.
My requirement is as follows:
I receive an excel sheet and I do not know what are the columns or the number of columns in the sheet.
I need to load this sheet data into a dynamic table in SQL server - named based on input excel sheet. The column names should get created from the header row. This should be achieved just by providing excel sheet name & location.
Thanks

Problem with Changing Data while Import through Excel Sheet

Hi Experts,
I am new to SAP LUMIRA and I am facing an issue with it. Actually, I am importing the data for analysis from an Excel sheet into SAP LUMIRA. I am able to prepare the visualization in the first go. But If I am changing the number of columns in the excel sheet afterwards (that may occur in normal circumstances where data is dynamic) and then refreshing the LUMIRA dashboard, it fails. Please can you tell me about a possible mistake or is it really feasible when we change data afterwards and then refresh the dashboards once again.
Looking forward to your answers.

Aman

Import Excel with mutiples sheets into Oracle

Hi,
I got a few questions here, I did some google-ing but I would like get clarifications:
1. In order to make Excel "talks" to Oracle with External Table, do I need to convent the Excel file into .csv?
2. Apparently my Excel has mutiple sheets (20+), do I need to save each sheet individually as 1 single .csv before they "talk"?
(sounds like it...but I "hope" there is another way...-_-)
3. I am using TOAD and the tool "Import Table Data" can read .xls and .xlsx directly, however I will have to do 20+ times for each sheet... beside that, is there any other quicker way to read the Excel files?
(even if I use External Tables I have might have to save each sheet into a .cvs for 20+ times...-_-)
Thanks everyone in advance...
My questions sounds stupid.....=_=!!
