Linking excel data into Smartview
Our users have data in multiple tabs that is currently linked into one master worksheet.We have a Planning webform that is setup the same way and needs to be rolled out as an input template. If a user opens the webform from smartview, is there a way to link data from these different tabs or do they have to update the links everytime they open the form?
p.s. why would you want to dissassociate your rows of data in excel into seperate rows, such that they lose the information about which was "product1", "product2" etc.

Want to load excel data into oracle table with out changing it to CSV
Hello all,
I have a requirement in dumping excel data into oracle database table without changing it to CSV file and this has to be used in normal sql/plsql environment i.e., pkg/procedure cant be used in the forms also...
so, can u guys can help me out in this
thanks.............The link Pavan provided discusses Oracle Heterogeneous Services. This allows you (using ODBC) to create a database link from Oracle to a non-Oracle data source like Excel. This would allow you to query the Excel data source from SQL*Plus or any other client tool. But that is probably going to require that your Oracle database is running on Windows since I'm not aware of any Excel ODBC drivers for Unix.
Another potential option would be to write a Java stored procedure that parsed the file. There are a few different Java libraries that can read and write Excel data files. You could load one of those libraries into the database's JVM and then write Java code that parsed the file. You would then be able to call your Java stored procedure from PL/SQL.

Upload excel data into Internal table
Hi,
I'm trying to upload excel data into internal table, well the excel file layout will be different on each run of the report.
Excel file will have 60 columns and 500 record limit. I can upload the excel data using 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE' and 'KCD_EXCEL_OLE_TO_INT_CONVERT' but the output table is generates 60 lines for each record i.e.., 60 * 500 = 30,000 which could cause performance.
I try with the FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP', but this will only work if the file structure is static. It didn't work for dynamic file layout. Even GUI_UPLOAD doesn't work to upload excel file, it will work if I convert the file to Tab delimited file.
Please advise if you know any alternate procedure to upload excel data into internal table.
Thanks,

Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports?
Hi Friends,
Can anyone send me a Step- by- Step on How to Load Excel data into Crystal Reports? Pls help me. Thanks in Advance.
VijayIt's also important to 'prep' the excel file prior to connecting to it.
Give the data tab a meaningful name
Make sure the column headers are unique and that every column has a header
Delete any blank tabs
If you have trouble with Excel changing the data type of a field (say, a social security number you want to be a string value rather than a number so you don't lose leading zero) an alternative would be to save the spreadsheet file as a CSV, create a schema.ini to specify the data types for each column (example below) and use the same steps to connect except instead of choosing Excel 8.0, scroll to the bottom and choose Text. You have to make sure the CSV file is in the same folder as the schema.ini file that defines the columns.
Schema.ini example:
200912PUSD.csv
ColNameHeader=True
Format=CSVDelimited
MaxScanRows=25
CharacterSet=OEM
Col1=SSN Char Width 9
Col2=LAST_NM Char Width 25
Col3=FIRST_NM Char Width 25
Col4=DOB Date
Col5=STDNT_ID Char Width 10
Col6=SORTKEY Char Width 10
Col7=SCHOOL_NM Char Width 30
Col8=OTHER_ID Integer
Col9=GRADE Char Width 2
The filename in the first line needs to have the [] brackets around it, but I couldn't get it to display in this forum correctly.

Copy and Paste Excel Data into an Adobe Lifecycle Table
I've created a form in Adobe LifeCycle that includes a table. I've set up the table so that they are fillable Text cells (5 Colunm's worth). What I need to do is Copy data from Excel and paste into the Adobe Form's table (with the same headings). After realizing that it would only paste all 5 cells of Excel data into 1 Adobe Form's cell, I tried merging all 5 Adobe Form cells. That smushed all of the Excel data and still isn't usable.
How can I create one text field object for each column in the spreadsheet when pasting from Excel into an Adobe Form Text Table?You can't ....you have to do cell by cell copies

Importing excel data into oracle tables
Hello gurus,
Importing excel data into oracle tables..
I know this is the most common question on the thread ...First, i searched the forum, i found bunch of threads with loading data using sqlloader, converting excel into .Txt, tab delimited file, .csv file etc....
Finally i was totally confused in terms how to get this done....
Here is wat i have
- Excel file on local computer.
- i have laod data into dev environment tables(So no risk involved, but want to try something simple)
- Oracle version 11.1.0.7
- Sqlplus and toad (editors)
Here is wat i like to do ....i dont know if its possible
- Without going to unix server can i do everthing on local system by making use of oracle db and sqlplus or toad
SQLLOADER might be one option...but i dont want to go the unix server for placing files and logs and stuff.
Wat will be best and simplest option to do?? and wat format will best to convert from excel into csv, or txt or tab delimited etc.....
If you suggest sqlloader, any code example will be greatly appriciated.
Thank you so much!!!Hi,

Imran,
This is increadible option in toad!!! It works absolutely sweet!! I have toad 9.7 version. IT works great. Thank you so much!!You are welcome :)
Well i have further discussion on this ....this option is great if you doing in staging or development area. What if your doing in prod?? If you automating the sqlloader then how do u do it?? I think we still need to stick with traditional approach of laoding data by making use of SQLLoader right ?? If m wrong please correct me.well, in our case, we do have access to a custom schema in prod where we create the staging table and load the data from datafiles.
try this:
load data
infile 'C:\dest.csv'
into table dest_table
fields terminated by "~" optionally enclosed by '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(name,
owner_nm,
description_column,
UPDT_DT DATE 'MM/DD/YYYY')
{code}
you can get more info about sql loader and your error here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch05.htm
http://www.allinterview.com/showanswers/53766.html
And one more quick question ...i found an example of control file , in that i see .dat format file. Is it a data file ?? can i try that option ?? But in excel i didnt see to convert the .dat format file.
Any thoughts ???
It is same as a delimiter text file.
steps to create a .dat file (from a excel file):
1. Insert a column between two columns and populate it with the delimiter (in our case, it is ~)
2. Save the file as unicode text.
3. Open the file in text editor and remove all the tabs (find an replace with blank)
4. Save the file as "DEST.dat". Select encoding as UTF-8 while saving.
5. Your .dat file is ready.
Regards
Imran

Help with Importing Excel Data into Formatted Tables
This is my first post, here, so please be gentle!
I am a relatively new user of InDesign CS4, and I am creating a 70-pg manufacturer's price book. A very large portion of each page is going to be size and price information imported from a large Excel spreadsheet.
I have created the table format that I'd like to use for each page, but the trouble comes when I import the Excel data into that table. For some reason, when I import, it all dumps into one cell. Would it be best to import as an unformatted table, and then format the table each time, or is there a way to simply import the data into my pre-formatted table? I've seen how the former is done, but the latter seems much easier (...although that could be my inexperience talking).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much,
Laura (V1500)Thank you both so much for your time! This is exactly what I needed.
Cheers

How to import MS Excel data into an exisiting SharePoint List?
Hi Guys,
Is it possible to import an excel list or excel data into a SharePoint List that has already been created? Not create a new list.
I know you can import a spreadsheet which will create a new list, but I don't want that because I have created columns already that do calculations and such and I don't want to recreate them....
It can be either an excel or access list, but I want to make sure the pre-existing columns in still my SharePoint list.Sure,
Go to list datasheet view in IE
Open excel and copy the range
Paste in datasheet view
If column range match and validation overcome, data will start pasting as expected.

Regarding loading of excel data into oracle database
hello,
Can someone help me in knowing that how can we load excel sheets data into oracle database.
I will be really thankful to you.
GursimranHi,
There is tool given by oracle "Oracle Bulk Loader "
you can use this.
But in order use this you need a control file, which specifies how data should be loaded into the database; and a data file, which specifies what data should be loaded.
Example :- this is the control file which has information how the data is processed.
LOAD DATA
INFILE test.dat
INTO TABLE test
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
(i, s)
Example :- test.dat which is the data file or say your excel sheet or document
(1, 'foo')
(2, 'bar')
(3, ' baz')
example of Loading :-
sqlldr <yourName> control=<ctlFile> log=<logFile> bad=<badFile>
sqlldr testing control=test.ctl log=test.log
Thanks

Import CSV/Excel data into Flex Datagrid using Java/JSP
Hi,
Is there any way we can import excel/csv data into flex datagrid component.
I see that is been done using php in this site. http://code.google.com/p/as3xls/
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advanceYou can store the list of data from the Excel sheet that you have read already into an ArrayList
Then go through the JDBC tutorial, and learn how to insert a single record into the table.
After you understand how to insert a single record, you can iterate through the ArrayList of data and insert them into the table in the database.
If you know JDBC, see if you can use OR Mapping frameworks like Hibernate or iBatis, they make it very easy to manage database in Java. -
Importing excel data into ZAM 7.5 using SQL2005
Hi,
I am running ZAM 7.5 and have about 6500 workstation records in inventory. I have an excel spreadsheet that has been maintained for several years with some demographic info in it such as Site, Department, Building, etc for about 4000 of those workstations. I would like to get that information into the ZAM SQL2005 database. Can I import the data into the SQL database directly or is there a tool to do it? There are no purchase records tied to this data so using the purchase record import does not seem like an option. Any advice?
Thanks,

How to convert excel data into OTF and FAX
Hi All,
We have a requirement where in we have a smartform output (OTF data) converted into PDF, and an excel sheet, both being sent as email attachments.
Now, we need to send the content of both the attachments as FAX.
Since smartform output was OTF convertible, FAX was being sent using 'CONVERT_OTF_AND_FAX' FM.
Can you let me know, if there is a possible way for manipulating the data that is converted to EXCEL, as OTF, and then FAX it?
Or else, please suggest me an alternative way to FAX normal data (other than using 'CONVERT_OTF_AND_FAX').
Thanks in advance,

Copy and paste excel data into database
We have moved from the oracle7.3.x and forms4.5 to oralce8i and forms 6? In the 7.3 and 4.5 enviroment being accessed via a terminal emulator, we were able to copy and paste into the fields for input. by using escape sequences
eg.
=CHAR(27)&"OP" =PF1
=CHAR(27)&"OQ" =PF2
=CHAR(27)&"OR" =PF3
=CHAR(27)&"OS" =PF4
=CHAR(27)&"[1~" FIND
=CHAR(27)&"[2~" INSERT HERE
=CHAR(27)&"[3~" REMOVE
=CHAR(27)&"[4~" SELECT
=CHAR(27)&"[5~" PREV PAGE
=CHAR(27)&"[6~" NEXT PAGE
=CHAR(27)&"[A" UP
=CHAR(27)&"[B" DOWN
=CHAR(27)&"[C" RIGHT
=CHAR(27)&"[D" LEFT
=CHAR(13) RETURN
Is there a way now that we are using the Jinitiator applet to connect to our data base (three teir stucture)
