Naming the csv file exported to Excel

Hello all,
Is it possible to force an excel csv to have a different name when exporting report contents?
Currently out csv files are named: region_name[1].csv for example. How do we get rid of the "[1]"?
Thanks

You could define a form item and substitute the default name with a &item_name. so that the user can define the excel output name.... At least in standard report csv downloads..
Thank you,

How to export out the date into the csv file?

Hi, I had been trying to export out the value of the date to csv file.
This is the script:
$strADPath = 'LDAP://dc=test,dc=com'
function ConvertLargeIntegerToDate([object]$LargeInteger){
try
$int64 = ConvertLargeIntegerToInt64 ($LargeInteger)
if ($int64 -gt 0)
$retDate = [datetime]::fromfiletime($int64)
else
$retDate = $null
return $retDate
catch
return $null
$objSearch = New-Object DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$objSearch.Filter = '(&(objectClass=user)(samaccountname=user1))'
$objSearch.SearchRoot = $strADPath
$objSearch.PageSize = 1000
$objSearch.SearchScope = "subtree"
$objResults = $objSearch.Findall()
$dateAccountExpires = ConvertLargeIntegerToDate $objUser.accountexpires[0]
Write-Host "date Account expires: " $dateAccountexpires
$objResults| ForEach-Object{
$_.GetDirectoryEntry()
} |
Select-Object -Property @{Name="sAMaccountName";Expression={$_.sAMAccountName}},
@{Name="cn";Expression={$_.cn}},

@{Name="givenName";Expression={$_.givenName}},

Export-Csv -Path 'D:\test44.csv'
This is what I get in PowerShell ISE:

Hi George,
Thanks! It does work in XML format. But since I would need to present the data in a spreadsheet, is there any other way I could go around it?

.csv files exported not converting to Tabular format jdev patch 6908968

After jdeveloper patch 6908968 on 12.0.6, the data is copied into an Excel .csv file but the entire data is copied to the single cell/column.
Developed an OAF page which has the standard Oracle Export Functionality for one of our requirements. When exporting from the OAF page, it is creating a .csv file(as expected) , but the data is not copied to individual cells. The whole data is going to one cell rather than into individual columns.
According to Bug 4699555 you can use one of the following workarounds :-
a. change "List separator" value from ";" to "," in the Regional Options,
b. in Excel, after opening the .csv file, go to "Data" -> "Text to Columns ...",
choose "comma" as the delimiter in the wizard.
c. instead of Opening the file, Save it with .txt extension open MS Excel and open the saved file and specify delimited + comma as the delimiter during the text import process.
The workarounds work, however this is not acceptable as there are 380,000 users. This worked as expected with 11.5.10 and not with upgraded R12. 12.0.6 with jdeveloper patch '6908968' for developing the OAF page with jdeveloper export button option.
Is there a setup step missing or that changed for R12 and the column delimiter?

You MAY want to think about a product that will read the output from your DVD player and convert to DV AVI
Matt with Grass Valley Canopus in their tech support department stated that the model
110 will suffice for most hobbyist. If a person has a lot of tapes that were played
often the tape stretches and the magnetic coding diminishes. If your goal is to encode
tapes in good shape buy the 110, if you will be encoding old tapes of poor quality buy
the model 300
Both the 110 and 300 are two way devices so you may output back to tape... if you don't
need that, look at the model 55
http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc55 One Way Only to Computer
http://www.grassvalley.com/products/advc110 for good tapes, or

How to include seconds and millisecond in the CSV file time stamp generated by the SpreadSheet Object?

I'm Using Lookout 6.02, in a XP Pro Windows Machine, Service Pack 3.
I have an application that collects data at the rate of 20 samples per second. It works just fine, the CSV File contains all the samples without missing a single one.
The problem is that the time stamp in the data file only shows hours and minutes. With 20 sample per second, there are 1200 samples per minute. It is hard to figure out in which second or sample number, occurred some events collected. These files are open with Excel and analyzed with Excel. There is no easy way to implement a search or a guidance for knowing the sample number or the exact time in Excel. My problem is to add the seconds and if possible the milliseconds to the time stamp done by the spreadsheet object.
Any suggestion?
Other ways to do the same that includes the time stamp all the way down to milliseconds?

Create another column with the Now() function, then set the calumn format to hh:mm:ss.s
expression would be now(trigger) for the date and time or now(trigger)-today(trigger) for just time
The trigger will cause the expression to stay updated, perhaps using the same trigger for logging the spreadsheet.
Good luck
Mike

CSV output (export to excel) don't use right code table

CSV output (export to excel) don't use right code table. We use code table
8859-2 (reports and forms are OK). Why export to excel don't use this code table.
Thanks for answers

You could also take the example from my blob that Denes mentioned and instrument it to output in either CSV or HTML. This way, you could have a single procedure that worked for both formats.
All you would need to do is handle each field differently - pad a TD and /TD (with proper brackets, of course) if its HTML or just append a comma if it's CSV.
Thanks,

How to align the CSV file on upload?

Hi All,
I have to upload a CSV file as an attachment in a mail and the data's in the internal table which has to be uploaded in the CSV file are seperated using commas which on uploading appear in the CSV file in the same column but i need the data's to be seperated in different columns and different lines...
Pls help it is very urgent..
Thanks in Advance...

Hi
For my understanding you are talking about download.
For that you have to concatenate each fields of final internal table (gt_itab for example) using comma as below.
TYPES: BEGIN OF ty_lines,
         line(1023) TYPE c,
       END OF ty_lines.
DATA: l_filename TYPE string VALUE 'C:\temp\abcd.csv',
      gt_lines TYPE TABLE OF ty_lines,
      gw_lines TYPE ty_lines.
LOOP AT gt_itab INTO gw_itab.
    CONCATENATE gw_itab-f1
                gw_itab-f2 .....
           INTO gw_lines-line
           SEPARATED BY ','.
     APPEND gw_lines TO gt_lines.
ENDLOOP.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      filename                = l_filename
      filetype                = 'ASC'
      confirm_overwrite       = 'X'
      no_auth_check           = 'X'
    TABLES
      data_tab                = gt_lines.

Dulicacy of field values in the CSV file

Hi Experts
We are configuring a file to idoc scenario in which the file is a .csv txt file.
The format of the csv file is
NMI,BillNo,BillAmount,ContractAcc
There are instances where there is a duplicacy in the NMI & hence that needs to be filtered before sending it to PI.Any idea about how to filter this either at the source end or PI end.
Please throw some light in this.
Regards
Sabyasachi

Hi Sabyasachi,
Manually you will need to open the file put it into excel remove duplicate entries , again move that back again into text file. This method is a very dumb way of doing things.
A smarter way would be to write a module. The link given below is not a tailor made solution to your query but sufficient to get you started.

Can you please provide the .csv files used in Power BI Getting Started Guide

Hi Team,
I am exploring the Power BI app developed by Microsoft on My Windows 8 machine
For that I found the Getting started guide from the below link
http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/power-bi-getting-started-guide-HA104103589.aspx?CTT=5&origin=HA102835634
Power Query and Power Pivot are totally new to me and I am trying to learn more on it
While trying to execute the steps given in the starting guide I found that it requires 2 csv files (NYSE Daily 2009 and same for NASDAQ) for mashing up data agaist S&P 500
I tried to get from web, but unfortunately not getting the required data
Can you please provide the test data (the 2 csv files NYSE Daily 2009 and NASDAQ daily 2009) using which I will resume my work in Power BI?
Thanks in advance

How can I have a csv file read from excel to labview.

Hi,
I would like to read multiple csv files from excel to labview, creating a duplicate of the tables in excel, which would allow me to then draw some graphs for data analysis and comparison between the two.
Are there any examples that could be useful to what I am trying to do?
Thanks

Patel33 wrote:
From one of the csv files, I only require 3 of the columns. Is there a way to only read that part of the csv file?
No. The characters in a file are just one long string and delimiters and linefeeds are special characters that defined where fields and lines start and end. As such, columns are interlaced into the file and consists of many small sections, where the position depends on the number of characters in each field, which is typically variable. You really need to read the entire file, then only look at the interesting columns later.

How to write the char value as is in the CSV file

Hi Everyone,
I am creating csv files which contains inventory details for all the products. I am able to create the csv file with utl file concepts. My problem starts after the csv file is being created.
some of the product numbers(Though I am saying Product number, it is varchar2 data type in the table) is like this 3E-12, 3E-54 and so on. I have totally 23 product numbers like this.
When the user opens the csv file it is changing to numbers like this 3.00E-12, 3.00E-54. I want to keep the product number as it is like char value. I tried many quoting and concat methods.
But none of them works for me.
I am using oracle 9i.
