Merge Data files into a spreadsheet

I am wanting to select all pdf's in a folder and merge them into a spreadsheet, I know there is a tool for this but I want to make it select all the files in the current folder automatically as someone else has to do the report and I want to avoid mistakes.
Thank you for your help in advance.

What you're describing will require creating an Action and a folder-level
script to process the files and then output the spreadsheet file (a CSV or
TXT file). That would be much more work than just using the built-in
feature, and making sure you select all the files in a folder...

  • Merge data files into spreadsheet exports 1 field

    In acrobat 11.0.5 the 'merge data files into spreadsheet' tool only exports the filename and 1 field. The form was created in livecycle designer ES3 and previous versions created in livecycle 2 and 2.5, using previous versions of acrobat have exported all fields when using the 'merge data files into spreadsheet' tool. IU there a fix for this?

  • Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet not working

    HELP! I created the form files in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI, saved as Reader Extended PDF, have a submit button that emails me, and I download them to a folder on my desktop. When I try to "Merge Data Files into Spreadsheet" all I get back is the file name. I've tried with 10 files and only one file and it STILL won't work so it is not that the fields don't line up.
    What do I do now?

    It's hard to say without looking at one of the files. If you can't post one somewhere, I'd be happy to take a look if you're free to email me: acroscript at gmail dot com

  • Cant merge data files using adobe acrobat 9 pro extended

    I have created a form using Adobe Live cycle and it has a e-mail submit button i.e. the form is converted to XML document. Now, when I try to merge the XML files into one spreadsheet using Adobe 9 pro extended, nothing is coming in the report file (CSV file) except the names of all XML files I wanted to merge. But when I do the same excercise in another computer using the same XML files and using Adobe Professional 7.3, the report file is generated perfectly. Please help me so that I can use  Adobe 9 pro extended.             

    you can get an acrobat 9 pro trial version here, if you follow all 7 steps:  http://prodesigntools.com/all-adobe-cs5-direct-download-links.html
    i'm not sure if your license for the extended version will work with the non-extended version but, give it a try.

  • Problems with Merge Data Files

    Created a form with radio buttons and finally have it working on my computer including the Merge Data Files creating the report.csv file.  However, when my co-worker creates the report.csv, the columns for the radio buttons are not included.  Had this problem on my computer when I had names for the radio buttons, but fixed it.  The data columns for the radio buttons are not exported on the co-workers computer.  Both are Pro X version, mine 10.0.0 but co-worker's is 10.1.7.
    Any suggestions?

  • Help merging 3d files into one 3d-pdf-scene

    Is it possible with the LCS to merge 3d-files into a single 3d-pdf-scene just like it is in the Adobe 3D Reviewer? I don't have a "Master"-file that defines an assembly like a catia *.CATProduct file so I can't refer supporting documents in the Generator3D. I also tried the assembler-service but with that I was only able to create a PDF that holds all the single 3d-data on different pages and therefore in seperated 3d-scenes.
    thanks

    Hi Timo,
    If you are still interested in this functionality to merge 3D files in batch, please contact me at [email protected] to discuss further.
    Thanks.

  • [Multisim]How to import data files into Multisim?

    Hi guys,
    In Multisim, we can plot various kinds of graphs, which again can be export to data files like *.csv. I have a csv file, which contains data in X and Y axes. How can I import this data file into Multisim, and make it displayed in a graph?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    The Piecewise linear source (PWL) accepts data as voltage or current vs. time. You can find this part by selecting Place>>Component, go to the "Sources" group then select "Signal voltage sources". Place this part on the work area, double-click on it and there should be an option to open a .txt file.

  • I want to merge mp3 files into one file so i can play a mix in i tunes without pauze

    i want to merge mp3 files into one file so i can play a mix in i tunes without pauze

    Audacity is what you need.
    Obviously you need to create a new MP3 file of the combined songs and not delete the originals.
    If your DJ-ing and/or just have too many songs to do that, then look at the free VirtualDJHome version, gives you a lot of control over your music playback.

  • Geting an error trying to import a data file into OWB repository

    Hi,
    We're using OWB 11.1.0.7.0
    I'm trying to import a new data file and I'm getting an error.
    When I go to The Project/Files/ I right click on the module I want to add the files to,
    I get a 'Wizard' titled 'Welcome to the Import Metadata Wizard'.
    I click next.
    I get the 'Filter Information' screen that asks if I want to select 'All Data Files' or a specific file.
    I pick 'All Data Files' and click 'next'.
    I get the 'Object Selection' screen that has a left and right panel. The left side is titled 'Available' and the right side is titled Selected.
    The 'Available' panel had the directory in Linux (/etl/datafeeds/dev) where our data files are stored with a plus sign next to it.
    When I click the plus sign, I get an error message that says:
    API2836: Directory

  • Split TempDB Data file into multiple files

    Hey , 
    I have been seeing TempDB contention in memory on our SQL server 2012 Enterprise Edition with SP2 and I need to split TempDB Data file into multiple files .
    Could someone please help me to verify the following information:
    1]
    We are on SQL server 2012 Enterprise Edition with service pack2 but as per SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition under CAL Licensing –We are limited to use 20 logical processors instead 40 logical processors. Our SQL is configured
    on NUMA nodes and with the limitation SQL uses only 2 NUMA nodes on live .There are 10 logical CPUs are evenly assigned to each NUMA nodes. Microsoft recommends that if SQL server configured on NUMA node and we have 2 NUMA nodes, then we may add two data files
    at a time. Please let me know should I add two TempDB data file at a time?
    2] We have TempDB Data and log files both on the same Drive of SQL server  .When I split TempDB into two Data files, I can get them on the same Drive .What your recommendation should I need to create TempDB Data files on the same drive or on separate
    disks?
    3] What would be the blackout plan for splitting the tempdb into multiple files? Please let me know if someone has a better back out plan ?
                1] Run script that create tempdb Database with a single file
    2] Reboot SQL service in order to apply change   
    Your help will be apprecited .
    Thanks ,

  • How can i log two (almost equal) data streams into one spreadsheet file?

    Hello,
    My problem is (as stated above) that i would like to log data obtained from 15 current-sensors and data obtained from 15 pressure sensors into one spreadsheet file. The idea is to put them next to eachother (preferabley pressure current sensors 1, pressure current sensors 2, pressure current sensors 3 etc.).
    Next to that I'm having difficulty logging certain constraints into a separate spreadsheet file. I.e. I've placed a maximum value constraint on my datalogger and I wish to log the data that has surpassed the max. constraint seperatly from the main logging file (see above) and (of course) preferably with the associated sensors. I would be extremly grateful if someone
    out there could help me with this problem becouse when I've fixed these problems my internship will finally have come to an end (and i NEED a vacation). Thanks in advace;

    Shouldn't be too difficult. You would obviously have to have some form of test to see when your data has gone out of the specified range. You could then have this secondary logging process inside a case structure. You could innitialize this second file with the same header info. This is easiest if you go ahead and log all the sensor values into this new "surpassed" file if any of them are over. Otherwise, you will have to enter space characters ahead of the sensor values to ensure that the columns line up. You can create a string constant with a bunch of space characters and just use it over and over as necessary.

  • Import data from a spreadsheet (data file) into TestStand steps

    Hi,
    I have some 100+ customers with different configuration data.  Whenever I need to run test for a different customer, I need to update the TestStand steps in each sequence file with new values.
    I'm thinking if there's a better way to simplify this, perhaps by using a spreadsheet/data file to input the data?  But I have no idea how to do this?
    My steps are from two sources, one type is a dotNET DLL, another type is Active X/COM (calls TestComplete software).
    Any suggestion would be appreciated!
    Thanks!

    Yes there is, make use of the PropertyLoader. Checkout the examples found in the TestStand Examples folder.

  • How to merge pdf files into one pdf file?

    In E-Rec we need the capability to mass printing for correspondance. There i want to merge pdf files for candidates into one pdf file. I am doing the following:
    Data: lv_document1           TYPE rcf_s_cs_document_content.
    LOOP AT activity_object_tab INTO ls_activity_object.
        lo_act_corr ?= ls_activity_object-activity.
         CALL METHOD lo_act_corr->process_document
           EXPORTING
             channel  = 'FRONTEND'
           IMPORTING
             document = lv_document1.
      ENDLOOP.
    Now lv_document1 contains the pdf file in  lv_document1-DOCUMENT_X which is of type RAWSTRING.
    This works for one candidate, in this case the pdf for last candidate will be displayed.
    But how would i append in the loop or what would i need to do display all candidates in one pdf.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

  • How can I combine 200+ XDP (XML) files into one spreadsheet or database for analysis?

    Hi all,
    I've got 200+ XDP files that were created by entering data into a LiveCycle PDF form 200+ times and then exporting the data as XDP 200+ times.
    Now, I want to view all the data at once (for example, in an Excel Spreadsheet or database) so I can look for trends in the data or come up with a summary (for example, 180 of 200 responses answered Question 1 'Yes'). The form does have some image fields, but I don't need to see or analyse those fields.
    I'm a bit of a newbie. Is there an easy way to do this? Thanks!
    - John

    I had a similar goal to gather data from a folder full of XDPs into a spreadsheet to track user behaviors, capture commonly entered values, and run reports.
    If you are familiar with Python, I highly recommend creating a simple script using Python 2.6 and the elementTree (effbot.org) libraries.
    Since I cut my teeth on this project, I found it helpful to break down the script's tasks into individual parts. The material and examples for getting a folder's contents, writing variables in lists, and using elementtree is as terrific as it is scattered in location and diverse in implementation.
    1. Grab an xdp in your directory ( for book in path: )
    2. Parse the xml by using the elementtree iterator
    3. Assign your element's values to variables during iteration
    if element.name == 'dataNode':
         variable = element.text
    4. At the end print your variables with deliminators between each (I used a pipe "|" because commas were commonly used in our forms)
    print "%s|%s|%s|%s|%s" % (currentFileName, variable1, variable2, variable3, variable4)
    Once you are happy with the data printed out to your console; and each row corresponds to a xdp, stream the output to a file and import that file into Excel in a CSV-style text import (specifying your deliminator during the import process)
    so if your script that does the above is called "xdpGrabber.py", run:
    $ python xdpGrabber.py >> xdpSpreadSheet.txt
    and open xdpSpreadSheet.txt in excel.
    There are some gotchas here - repeating nodes can be tricky, and heavily nested or scattered xml structures will add much more complexity to the script.  However, if you are only looking for certain fields that always come in the same order when reading the xdps from top to bottom you can get them using simple "if element.name == 'stuff'" references in the order they appear - as elementtree parses from top to bottom.
    If this is appealing to you, I suggest you run one of your sample xdps against the example script given here: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2003/02/12/py-xml.html
    I used Python 2.6 and elementtree on a windows XP laptop.  I would routinely create spreadsheets from 3000+ xdps, each with 50-100KB of data, in under 15 minutes.  I'm guessing the real bottleneck is streaming the output to disk. There isn't much out there that can compete with elementtree for speed reading xml!
    If you need some assistance getting started  feel free to reply here or message me for an example script.
    Good luck!

    Hi,
         Here are modifications to your vi to do what you are describing. It helps, when trying to work through issues like these on this forum to not start a new thread with each iteration of your question. Those of us that are trying to help can follow it better if you just "Reply" to your previous thread with the new, related question. If the question is for a totally new issue then a new thread is best, but when you are working through the details of essentially the same problem it really helps us follow it if you stay in one thread, and that usually means faster answers.
    We also like it if, when an answer helps, you give us a rating (the more stars the better) as it is about all we get out of it!
