Not able to add an excel file as data source to create new values in the mapped domain

Hi
I am trying to use some sample data from an Excel file to improve the quality of a Knowledge Base I have created in the Data Quality Client. I followed the following steps:
Knowledge Discovery
Data Source: Excel File
Browsed to the Excel File on my local drive.
I'm getting the following error: Failed reading Excel File
I have checked the security settings, and provided full control to the user. I'm not sure as to what is the issue here. I
am totally new in this field and with my little knowledge trying to build a Knowledge Base. But the hurdle stopped me.
Thanks in Advance

Hi
You can add a  Excel file as the data source for a universe,  below are the steps.
Ensure that the following steps are done before inserting a table from Excel sheet into a universe.
1. Go to Excel and highlight all the cells that you want in the same table.
2. Go to the Name box from Insert->Name->Define and give a name (in Designer, you see this name as a table of all the values you have selected).
3. Go to Designer and pop up the table browser. You have to drag and drop the name you gave.
and check the SP of ur BO.
you can use .xls file as datasource but you cannot use .xlsx(windows 2007) .

Rajesh

  • User is not able to download specific excel file in sharepoint

    Hi,
    Could you please help?
    thanks

    Hi Srabon,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you cannot download the excel file from SharePoint.
    I recommend to check if the Download a Copy buttons can be used in the Excel web app and in the ribbon of the library.
    If both the two buttons cannot work, I recommend to check the permission of the user on the excel file and check if the Information Rights Management is enabled in the library.
    When Information Rights Management is enabled in the library and the user has only read permission on the document, then the file cannot be downloaded.

  • Multiple excel files - ODBC Data Source Administrator

    I have about 1750 excel files that I need to convert to text format.
    Is it possible to ... configure all files in the ODBC Data Source Administrator window?

    If you need these DSNs for Java only, you can define them directly inside the connect string.
    Look at these previous topics:

  • Problem with Read-only user being able to add and delete files and folders.

    The setup:
    Computer #1
    iMac (intel) running 10.5.5
    File sharing ON
    Sharing folder on external USB drive called 'iTunes' (but not the drive volume itself)
    Users:
    - Everyone = Read Only
    - Admin(me) = Read/write
    - UserA = Read Only (with account PW and username identical to local login for computer below)
    Computer #2
    UserA's iBook G4 running 10.4.11
    When I go to finder>network>iMac>connect it prompts me to login which I do and then select 'iTunes' folder which is visible and mounts successfully. I can see all files, access them all. Life seems great. Then I discover that I can also modify and delete files from the iBook, and create and delete directories.
    I'm new to networking and although I've setup and managed minimal networking tasks on PCs before, this is my first foray into the Mac networking world. Please help.
    What am I doing wrong? What haven't I set?
    Thanks in advance.

    Sorry, I should have clarified this in the first email.
    When I login from the iBook, I am logging in under a read-only user (not as myself, who is admin on the iMac). The user on the iBook has only been given read-only permissions on the iMac yet is able to add and delete files.
    This read-only login/PW however, is the admin account on the iBook, but that shouldn't allow this person to write on the iMac so far as I understand things...right?

  • Not able to add Video

    Last week i bought 30GB iPOD.
    I am not able to add videos in it.
    In iPOD setting, in Video tab all the options are in disabled mode with the default selection as no need to add videos. i think if i am able to enable "Manually maintain my own video" option, then i can upload video in my iPOD. Please let me know how to enable it.
    Thanks & Regards
    Subbu

    You probably have your iPod set to manually update your music.
    For some reason, iTunes will grey out the video options if you have it set to Manual.

  • I'm not able to listen to audio files that I purchased, help.

    I'm not able to listen to audio files I just purchased. Please help.

    Bravo are the files visible?  Did you get them from the iTunes store and purchase them on your iPad?  What happens when you try and listen? 
    If you haven't done so yet, I would try the basic restart/reset.

  • How import excel file as data sorce in OBISE Physical layer correctly?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm trying to import an excel file as data source in OBISE Physical layer. I create the ODBC that link the correct file (http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/bi_ee_1013/bi_admin/biadmin.html#t1)
    than imported the Excel using the import from database tool in the Oracle BI Adminstration. I see the Excel but i can't see data in it. Can you help me, please? I'm new in this.

    Did you enter a range in excel file?
    The range represents table name in the physical layer after you import excel file.
    See in this blog example:
    http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2008/06/obiee-excel-import-prepping-data.html
    Did you use import from database and select excel data source that you created in ODBC?
    I did the same and works for me.
    Save repository first and view data and check connection pool/data source name in your excel database folder.
