Limitation rows excel

Hi all,
It's possible to exceed the limit of 65536 rows by VBA code?
Thank you
Gianmarco

This limit is due to Excel, not to BW.
On the other hand, consider the readibility of a report which contains more than 65000 lines ... I would say BW is not the good tool, or the report is not well defined by the user.
It's usually the case when you migrate from an "old" reporting tool to a new one : People do want to have the same report as the previous, instead of rethinking the analysis.

Limitation with Excel 2007

Hi all,
My user has both excel 2003 and excel 2007 installed on his machine. When he runs the query in 2007 it gives him the limitation of 65000 rows which was taken off in 2007.
Any ideas why is this happening?
Regards,
Dave.

Hi Srinivas,
Read some oss note row limit 65k, is due to performance and memory constraint.
Plan to broadcast some of the operational which has more than 65536 rows. Is it possible to get more than 65k rows in Analyzer either 7.0 or 3.5? which support pack can make it possible?
Could you give the hint
Thanks,

Hello Tim,
First time posting a message in this forum. We have a report that we export to Excel for users to analyse it futher. Report consists of all percentages with % sign at the end of each value in the cells. Negetive numbers are highlighted in red enclosed in brackets with % sign at the end. All numbers are rounded to one decimal in the source query, so the XML data has values rounded to one decimal. When we export the report to Excel, all positive numbers are rounding to 2 decimal points and negetive numbers to one decimal point. When exported to PDF, all values are rounded to one decimal. Is there a way to fix this in Excel output?
Thanks in advance.

If you are executing update statement from sqlplus session.
Make sure "feedback" is turned on. It'll show numbers of rows updated just after the command;
SQL> update tt1 set col1 = 1;
0 rows updated.
SQL> show feedback
FEEDBACK ON for 1 or more rows
SQL> set feedback off
SQL> update tt1 set col1 = 1;
SQL>Details about this sqlplus system setting:

Limiting rows displayed from user-selection on dashboard prompt

Hi,
I'm looking for a way to limit the number of rows displayed after a user has made a selection using a dashboard prompt. Here is my scenario:
User selects 24 periods of data using an 'In Between' dashboard prompt (i.e. Jan05-Dec06). 24 rows are returned by the query but I only want to show the last 12 rows (Jan06-Dec06).
Motivation is that I'm using the MSUM function to display a 12-month moving sum total and I don't want to display the first 12 rows as they do not contain a complete moving sum total.
I've looked at using a variable to store the user selection at the dashboard prompt, but the 'In Between' dashboard prompt does not allow one to store a result in a variable.
Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks!

Hi Som,
Thanks again for your feedback. I've thought about using dynamic repository variables, but found them not to be the answer. Although the moving sum would always be a 12 month total, the user needs to be able to vary the range of periods using the dashboard prompt. Today he might only want to look back 12 months, tomorrow he may need a 5 year overview. Using dynamic repository variables would mean I'd have to create variables for the entire history i.e. CM until CM - 240 (20 years * 12 months). If a user then would like to report on a specific period, he would need to pick the correct dynamic variables, which would not be user friendly/acceptable.
I think I may need to resolve this problem in my datamart by calculating & storing a 12 month total (the only 'fixed' requirement of the report) in my fact table. This would also remove the need for the user to select 12 months more that he would see in his report (a drawback of my original scenario above).
Thanks again for your input!
Regards,
Dutch

Get Last Row Excel VI

Hello Everyone
I came across the VI attached on
https://decibel.ni.com/content/docs/DOC-22422
(Below is my modified LV 2010 version but it is not much different)
I understand that you are able to put in numerical data but in a single row I want to be able to have numerical data, words, and a URL.
I think you have to use the Append Image to Report for the URL part but does anyone understand why it has to be 2D array if I just want the
last row to put in all my data. I do not know where or how I can add just words to this last row or the image.
Any help is appreciated.

There are two questions, so here are two answers.
Question 1 -- how do you mix numbers, strings, and URLs? Answer -- convert everything to strings (which, I believe, is what happens internally -- indeed, the input is labelled Text Data).
Question 2 -- why do you need to pass in a 2-D array if you are only writing a single row? Answer -- the "generic case" is to write an entire table, i.e. rows and columns, or a 2-D array, all at once. As a "special case", you can accept a single row if you convert it to a 2-D array (1 row, many columns) simply by passing it through a Build Array block. Thus you can have a single function Append Text Table to Report handle both multi-line text tables and single-line (faked to appear as though it were multi-line) text tables.

Limiting Rows

Hi,
I need to display only first 10 rows. How to do that please help.
-Amit

you can create a dashboard prompt with a LOV of number from 1 to ...
then set a presentation variable for this. say pv_selected
then in the report,
modify the filter as RCOUNT(TABLE.COLUMN)<= @{pv_selected}

Row/data size limit when saving DESKI report to Excel?

Users are getting an "(Error: INF )" message when attempting to save a report to Excel. When the report has been generated using a smaller date range it generates 12,104 rows and saves successfully to Excel. When a larger date range is specified the report generates 18,697 rows and generates the above error message and does not produce an Excel file. The Excel file size for the 12,104 rows is 18.5 MB; the 18,697 row file would be in the neighborhood of 25+ MB. The row limits on Excel are well above what we're generating, so we're thinking there's a brick wall in the process that creates the Excel file from the BObj report?
We are running XIr2 patched to SP4 on Windows servers/XP desktops using MS SQL Server database softwear.

Hi Sarbhjeet,
Thank you for all your help.
Further to our investigation we found that this is known issue and it is a limitation of the Product, it wont be fixed.
The ADAPT for the same is ADAPT00743734
It is reproducible with XI 3.1 as well.
FYI...........
1. PDF Engine will get the rendering information from the busobj. If there is a character size differences between PDF and busobj, there are chances that you may see bigger cells or reduced data in PDF.
2. In the report when Fit to 1 page by 1 wide in Pagesetup->FitToPrint, the page size will be set to the fit the complete report in busobj.
3. When save as PDF, this information (increased page size, due to settings in 2) will be sent to PDF Engine. The Engine will try to fit the size into the available standard PDF size (based on Print settings and other combinations).If it tries to fit the report (enhanced page size) to the available size, then we loose lot of information depending on the number of columns and rows.
4. Shrinking the report in busobj may not feasible.
When we change the page size in Fit to Print (either Adjust to % or Fit to ) , in reporter it changes the page size instead of changing the rendering to fit to the page.
When save the report to PDF, it gets the information with extended page size. So we see the enhanced page in PDF.
Also in order to implement the shrink (instead of changing the Page size), each cell has to be shrieked to the percentage of the reduced page (compared to the original page size). It becomes more complicated when charts come to picture.
I hope the above information helps.
Thanks & Regards,
Anisa

Rows not Limiting correctly.

Hi,
I have an invoice that I have created as an .rtf.
I used this in my template:
<?for-each:G_LINES[position()<10]?>
It has about 20 some or more rows on the one page. Can anyone offer any advice. I have search through the Forum for limiting rows and read through many of the posts.
Thanks,
Jess

Vetri,
I ended up getting the issue of the rows resolved. Curious do you have a sample with the usage of more than one footer?
For instance: one footer is used on all pages until the last page which displays a different header?
Let me know.
Thanks,
Jessica

Result set does not fit; it contains too many rows

Dear All,
We are in BI7 and running reports on Excel 2007. Even though number of rows limitation in Excel 2007 is more than 1Million, when I try to execute a report with more than 65k records of output, system is generating output only for 65k rows with message "Result set does not fit; it contains too many rows".
Our Patch levels:
GUI - 7.10
Patch level is 11
Is there any way to generate more than 65000 rows in Bex?
Thanks in advance...
regards,
Raju
Dear Gurus,
Could you please shed some light on this issue?
thanks and regards,
Raju

Vara Prasad,
This has been discussed on the forums - for reasons of backward compatibility I do not think BEx supports more that 65000 rows .... I am still not sure about the same since I have not tried out a query with more that 65K rows on excel 2007 but I think this is not possible...

What is the maximum file size for CSV that Excel can open ? (Excel 2013 64bit)

Hello,
Before anyone jumps in, I am not talking about the maximum worksheet size of 1048576 rows by 16384 columns.
I have client whom has a 1.5 Gb CSV file, 1.9, 2.6, 5, 17 and 89 Gb file (Huge).
If I open the 1.5 Gb, the file opens (After waiting 5 minutes) and then a warning pops up that only the first 1048576 rows have loaded. That is fair enough.
If I try and open any of the others, Excel comes up to a blank worksheet. No errors. It just seems to ignore the file I tried to open. This happens from within Excel (File - open) or from double clicking the file in explorer.
Excel goes to this blank page almost imeadiatly. It does not even try to open the file.
If I try with Ms Access, I get a size warning and it refuses to load the file. (At least I get a warning)
I would have expected Excel to load at least the first 1048576 rows (If that is what there are in the file), and give an error.
The computer is more than capable (Xeon processors, 16 Gb ram, SSD hard disks top of the line HP Z820 power workstation).
With the 1.5 Gb file loaded to 1048576 rows, it uses 15% ram/pagefile. CPU's hit about 5%.
I have confirmed it is Win 7 64bit, Excel 64bit. I am fairly confident we are over the file size but without an error message, I don't know what to tell my client whom is looking to me for answers.
I have already discussed that the 89gb file in Excel is unreasonable and they are looking at a stat's package but I need an answer on these smaller files.
Anyone got any ides ?

Hi,
The 1,048,576 rows & 16,384 columns is the
workbook size limitation in Excel 2013. Thus, I recommend we try the Mr. Bernie's suggestions to import the large CSV file.
1. Use VBA to read the file line by line and split/examine the import file in sections. If you have further question about the VBA, please post your question to the MSDN forum for Excel
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=exceldev&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc
2. Use Excel 2013 add-ins. Power Pivot and Power Query. For more detailed information, please see the below articles:

Excel Analyzer template problems with Excel 2003

There are numerous common problems when using Excel Analyzer templates with the Analyzer Add-In for Excel 2003:
The following problems have been found in the latest version of the stand-alone BI Publisher version 10.1.3.3.2:
1) If your report name is more than 24 characters long, the Excel Analyzer template will never open in Excel. The error is completely uninformative, too. The reason is that the Analyzer template tries to make a tab in the Excel file called <report_name>.xdo. Since tab names can only be about 26 characters long, Excel chokes when opening the file. It would have been nice if BI Publisher printed an error when encountering this situation.
2) If your report produces too many rows, Excel will time out when opening the Analyzer template. Again, the error in this case is completely uninformative. In fact it appears no different from the error in (1). Excel 2003 is supposed to have a row limit of 65,000, but we can't get the Excel Analyzer template to open with more than about 15,000 rows. This is a completely unacceptable limitation if you're going to be making pivot tables in Excel. This is a processing time-out problem, which cannot be remedied by changing any settings in BI Publisher.
3) If you use the data in your Excel Analyzer template to make a wide report, like maybe one column for each day in the year, because maybe you want to plot the data over a full year, then forget about opening this report successfully. Since the number of days in a year is more than 256, Excel will choke when trying to open the template. No informative error here either.
4) If you're going to make a Pivot Chart in Excel, in the Analyzer template, then your reports cannot produce more than 256 rows. I'm not talking columns, I'm talking ROWS people! No more than 256 rows. This is because Pivot Charts require creating a sideways pivot table, which means your rows end up as columns. This is the only way to plot data with time on the x-axis, which is where it should almost always be.

BexGetData - Limitation or bug/problem ?

Hello,
We are currently running BI 7 NW04s on Service Pack 9 (but with many notes applied to fix known issues).
I am attempting to determine the level of flexibility available with the BExGetData and "convert to fomula" functionality in the Bex Analyzer (Excel).
Am I correct in thinking that once you have "converted" your table to formulas you can only use the characteristic values that were displayed in the drill down prior to converting?
For example, I have a report listing Amount by Cost Centre and Cost element.
On running the query I have the Cost Centre and Cost Element values filtered to a single value for each - giving me one row of data.
I then convert the values to formulas and attempt the replace the Cost Centre and Cost element characteristic values with other values where I know there are posted amounts in the cube. The formula always displays #NV , even though I know amounts exist.
A number is only returned when I key in the original values I had in the drill down prior to converting. This behaviour seems at odds with the description of BexGetData and convert to formula in the Netweaver help.
Can somebody please tell me if I am totally misunderstanding the extent of this new functionality.
Thanks in advance,
JCM

Hello JCM2007,
I understand your problem and your question.
In my project the reporting-target is excel-analyzer and not the web.
We have several cubes concering to SAP-controlling.
Profit-Center-Accounting (and cc too) needs the following fields and values:
Proft-Center
Account
Year/Period
Version
Plan/Act-mark
Amount
The idea was, writing an Query to reduce the numer of fields and values, and
use it as a Dataprovider instead of the Cube (see SDN-show). (without variables)
My first step was:
Rows: 0accounts (with one presentationhierarchy) expanded to all nodes and values
cols: 0amount, Year, Period, Version, Plan/act/Mark
Normaly I would like to have the profit-center in rows, but there is a limit
in Excel (65k). So i put the Profit-Center into the filter.
In this example I got a simple result, navigation works fine, when converted in
formulars
But I want more flexibilty. I don't want use the filter-dialog and I don't want
use variables.
Using profit-center and 0account in rows can only work, if I use
hierarchynodes and expand only (f.e.) to level 3. (see limitation of Excel < 2007)
After the first result, I convert to formular. And then I have the effect:
I only can swap values (Profit-Center or accounts) wich have allways been
listed (or included) in the first queryresult. For example, I swap the nodevalue
of a field of level 4. Here I got the #NV, because the hierarchy was expanded to
level 3. But there are values concerning to the entered value.
Whats the reason (maybe I was wrong)
You are right, the flexibility has a limit. Only values of the basic-query (bevore converting to formular) are availible when your entering new values.
But what can I do? I my opinion there is a bug in this function.
My interim solution works as follow:
- You have your converted-to-formular Excel-result concerning to Dataprovider DP1.
- You got #NV when entering an new Object (cost-center/profit-center)
- Place a new design-item under your excel-layout (designmode)
- Use the same dataprovider DP1.
- exit the designmode.
- You have the same result before converting to formular.
- Now click right mouse button to querypropertys.
- You see cols, rows and filter fields.
- Change the selection of cols, rows or filter fields. (but do not delete the
selection-criteria) of the first excelresult (otherwise #NV is in the first result).
- Choose only those selections you realy need.
- go back to your queryresult.
- Now you have a bigger resultarea.
- So you can DELETE the designitem now, because You didn't need it.
- Now try the first resultarea.
Swap values, and it will work fine.
Be carefull:
If your query-resultarea is to large, you will become problems in excel.
The OLAP-resultarea (requested in the dataproviderquery) will be transported
to the local excel-cache. Your pc-cpu need 100% for a few minutes (50% dualcore)
and memory grows to 500 megabyte (in my example). In this environment, excel aborts and you have problems with the users.
Look for aggregates and combine nodes of object and accounts. (I have 40 aggregates because there are more then 2000 profit-center and costcenters)
The first result is much smaller when you use aggregates. But you must insert the designitem when you want enlarge your queryresult.
Regards
Roland
