Multi-Tab Excel worksheet

Is it possible to create a multi-tabbed worksheet in CF 8? I can do a single tab using cfcontent, haven't found anything on adding additional tabs

CFCONTENT has nothing to do with generating excel sheets.You're just defining that output data is sent in binary form, with a certain mime type. Creating an Excel sheet is something completely separated. If you use already a third party component for this, check if it supports multiple worksheets.
A csv file is not an Excel worksheet (conceptually) at all. There are no features like sheets. It's dummy data with just commas, quotes, values and linefeeds.
One alternative would be to create an Excel XML worksheet. I haven't tried thismyself, but here are some pointers:

CF9 is of course the easiest solution with its cfspreadsheet tag, if you can upgrade.

Can we create Multi Tabbed excel Sheet using Crystal Reports 2008

Hi,
We want to create a Crystal Report which will export the output as multiple Tab's ( we can use sub reports). Can we create a Multi Tabbed excel Sheet using Crystal Reports 2008 ( not Crystal reports Basic 2008). Please share any information/links on how to do that.
Also if it is not supported please let us know which version supports it.
Thanks,
Vasu

At least one of the 3rd-party Crystal Reports Desktop Scheduling tools listed at: http://www.kenhamady.com/bookmarks.html provides that functionality. It allows you to burst a single report so that each Group at level 1 becomes a separate tab. You can control the tab names (and tab colors) via fields/formulas inside the report.
You can also automate the process of exporting to (and also replacing or appending to) specified tabs inside existing workbooks.

Export to Multi-tabbed Excel File

Hi,
I'm using Crystal Reports XI R1 and aside from designing reports in WEBi, do newer versions of Crystal support exporting reports to multi-tabbed Excel files?
Thanks,

How do I open a multi-tab excel document in numbers?

New mac for Christmas!
I am reluctant to instal MS Office and am willing to try out Apples programs. Only major issue is I cannot open my multi-tab workbooks that I created in Excel. I use them daily. Is there anyway to open them? Does the Numbers program have tabs si

What have you tried? I generally drop the excel file on the Numbers icon in the doc.
If you want the files to remain excel files you should get excel. If you are ok transitioning to Numbers give it a try. Numbers will export to excel once a file is open but does NOT natively save excel files.
You can also try OpenOffice or LibreOffice for free.

Read multi-tabbed excel file attachments from Sender Mail Adapter.

There is a need to read excel attachments from incoming email to a
mailbox. We know we can use Sender Mail adapter to easily read .xml, .txt
or .csv attachments.
For excel attachments we know from SDN that you have to write
adapter modules to handle excel. However the excel file we need to read has
multiple worksheets(tabs) and data may be contained in any of them.
Is it possible to use SAP XI Mailsender adapter to read such a file as an attachment? What kind of module development would we need for this? I am not much of a Java programmer so examples or links to other documentation would help.
Thanks,
Rudra

Rudra,
Use Java Mapping. There is a free java api available called JExcelAPI to achieve this.
Shabarish's blog describes about this. This might be helpful to you

Data open/save-as in Excel worksheet

Hi all,
i created implement one diagram into my existing vi for opening and saving the data in microsoft excel worksheet but it doesn't work. I have been looking through Excel Macro Example but couldn't make sense of it much.
still new in this and will really appreciate if someone can give me any insights for my problem.
thank you

You need to learn about data dependency!
In your VI you are performing three actions simultaneously:
Reading from an instrument and collecting data and then writing it to a text file in tab-delimited format, and then reading that file, but not doing anything with it.
Opening an Excel workbook and then a worksheet, and then closing the reference to the workbook.
Opening the Excel application and then closing it the reference to it.
Why do you need to open/close Excel if you're already writing the data to a text file in tab-delimited format? Excel can read this directly.
I would strongly suggest going through the LabVIEW tutorials that discuss data dependency and how to code in LabVIEW.

Any method of ole2 to count the no. of rows in excel worksheet ??

Dear all,
want to generate a for 1..n loop structure to access the excel worksheet.
iam using ole2 to upload data from excel to oracle.
rest is fine..
till now iam arbitrarily inputting a value as a count from forms to run the loop.
want to know is there any method of ole2 to count the no. of rows in excel worksheet...???
regards,

If you have purchase order number in your cube then you can use the easiest method of all of counting -- a calculated key figure with exception aggregation.
Create a CKF and add any basic key figure to it from your cube (basic means a key figure from the cube, not another CKF or RKF). If you're using the 3.x query designer then click the Enhance button and set the exception aggregation to Counting All Values. If you're using the 7.0 query designer then click on the Aggregation tab and switch the Exception Aggregation to Counter for All Detailed Values. With either query designer set the reference characteristic to your PO number characteristic. This CKF will count the number of PO documents.
See this document for step-by-step instructions: [How to... count the occurrences of a characteristic relative to one or more other characteristics|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/7e58e690-0201-0010-fd85-a2f29a41c7af].

Xcelsius suddenly only allows chart to call data from first excel worksheet

Hi
I'm using Xcelsius 2008 Engage with SP1 FP3 installed.
I have never had this problem before, but in the last week, Xcelsius won't allow a chart to call data from any worksheet in the excel file other than the first worksheet. If I reorder the worksheets in the excel file, i can access a different worksheet, but only the one that is saved as the first worksheet (left most tab).
In dashboards i have already created, i can't change the data range of a chart that's already calling data from a worksheet unless i select the first worksheet.
Could this be an automatic update from microsoft? Has anyone else experienced this and worked out how to overcome it? It is frustrating to keep moving the worksheet to the front and reimporting the data everytime i want to make a change that isn't in the first excel worksheet.
Thanks,
Scott.

As far as I remember it's not possible. Thus, find attached VI and use it to convert line/column to excel cell format. It's working if you are not using more than 26 columns (i.e. column AA, AB, ... if this is the case you have to improve it a little)
Hope this helps

Supressing tabs in multi tab report

I have a multi tab report that all the tabs are based off different queries. I want to suppress individual tabs and not have them export in Excel if the query returns no records.

Hi,
We can do this manually by selecting required report tabs (copy) and saving them in excel or to automate this process should work on SDK.
Cheers,
Suresh Aluri.

Can I prefill forms from an excel worksheet

I am looking for an alternative to typing or copy and pasting names onto forms that I distribute to clients. I am wondering if there is a way I can link an excel worksheet or export data from a document to prefill on each form. Something similar to a mail merge of some type.
Thank you!

Probably the easiest way to do this is to import the data in Acrobat from a tab-delimited file that you export from Excel. The first row must contain the exact field names and subsequent rows contain one or more records. When you import, you will be able to select a row of data and it will then be used to populate the form. So the workflow is:
1. Begin by setting up a worksheet to include the field names of the PDF form as the first row.
2. Populate the worksheet with one or more records.
3. Save worksheet as a tab-deliimited text file.
4. Open the form in Acrobat
5. Import a row of data form the text file. E.g., Tools > Forms > More Form Options > Import Data > [select text file] > [select row]

Independent canvases into a multi-tab component

Hi!
I built eight individual dashboards which I now would like to assemble in one, maybe two multi-dashboards tab components. I realize I could export the excel page of each one but I would still have to build the dashboards one by one into the tab component multi-dashboard. Is there any way to directly copy the dashboards and "paste" them into the multi-tab component?
Thank you kindly!

Gunderic,
There is one more option to get this...
Export the 1st dashboard to swf.
In the new dashboard, use the image component and import the swf file into the tab.
Hope this helps...

Sending report output to Excel worksheet- Why all labels R put in one line?

We need to export data from Oracle database to MS Excel work sheet. We developed a report and put all required things in the report. Set DESFORMAT and DESNAME parameters accordingly. Every thing works fine. But all the labels at the start of report are put in one line when we open output file in Excel worksheet. That is report heading, sub heading and column headings are all put in one line. Rest of the data is fine.
To make excel worksheet more readable, we need to show these lines as these appear in layout and Line Previewer.
Pl. help.

Thanks Siva,
Yes I am setting destination format to DELIMITED. But I do NOT want to suppress headers. In fact I do want headers in proper manner. The reason is that a no of files are produced by the same report for different columns as per user option in parameter form. So I want to put headers at the top of Excel file so that later on, at the time of using file for graphs in excel, user is able to properly recognize what the file contains. So I do want headers in manner in which they appear in Live Previewer and printed report.
Waiting for reply from U and support group.

Suddenly, all my saved Excel Worksheets are opening as Numbers documents, even though I've NEVER used the Numbers application, and even though the documents continue to be identified as Excel documents--losing years of work. What happened?

How can I uninstall Numbers? I've never used the Numbers application before, and suddenly all my saved Excel Worksheets are opening as Numbers documents, even though they continue to be identified as Excel documents? I'm losing years of work.

Right click on a Excel Worksheet file, choose 'Get Info'. In the small window that opens change the 'Open with:' from Numbers to Excel. Click on 'Change All…'
