Excel process does not end properly

Hello All.
I am using excel in my program writing data into it an excel workbook and then later on reading data from it. I have written down the code of closing excel worlkbook and shutting down excel application hence releasing the handles for it. But when i do that i.e. when the code containing excel workbook closing and excel application shutting down executes, excel workbook is closed but excel process does not end properly and can be seen in the task manager. And when i repeatedly open the excel file through my front end interface and close the file, another excel process is added in the task manager which does not end and so on. What can be the problem and solution. Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
Moshi.

Interfacing to Excel via ActiveX may be tricky, ending in situations like the one you are facing now.
The basic principle is that every single handle opened to an Excel object (workbook, worksheet, range, variant and so on) must be closed properly for the entire process to terminate gracefully. If a reference remains unhandled at program end you will find an instance of Excel remaining in the task list and you may suffer erratic behaviour in subsequent accesses to the product.
You must double check all references and add approporiate dispose/close commands for every one of them.

I am using Activex controls from Labview to log the data into Excel spreadsheet. My applica

tion is running fine without giving any error messages. But even after the vi stops, excel process does not shutdown. "Excel.exe" process keeps running until I end it from Windows NT Task Manager. Is there any way to end the excel.exe process from Labview?

tion is running fine without giving any error messages. But even after the vi stops, excel process does not shutdown. "Excel.exe" process keeps running until I end it from Windows NT Task Manager. Is there any way to end the excel.exe process from Labview?I use Excel Active X control frequently to save and then analysis test data. In order to properly destroy the "Excel.exe" process it is important to close all the automation refnums opened when using the Excel active x controls. After completing your desired Excel task wire all the refnums in reverse order they were created into the Automation Close function in Functions->Communication->Active X pallette. This includes all Application, Workbook, Worksheet, or Range refnum. Missing even one of these refnums will mean that Excel.exe will still persist in the task manager and cause problems when excel is opened from outside LabVIEW. I hope this helps.

WebUtil: Excel-process remains open

Win-XP, Web-Util, iAS 9.0.2 (Windows XP)
Hello,
If I use WebUtil and OLE2 to access Excel, everything works fine - accept for the poor performance (!). But at the end, an "Excel" process (as can be seen in the task manager) remains open, although I used
CLIENT_OLE2.RELEASE_OBJ(application).
Everytime, I invoke
CLIENT_OLE2.CREATE_OBJ('Excel.Application')
a new Excel-process is started, but never stopped.
Does anybody have a idea to avoid this problem? Thank you for any answer!

I just tried the following example onw Win 2000 using word and this works ok (cleaning up the process).
DECLARE
app CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
docs CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
doc CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
selection CLIENT_OLE2.OBJ_TYPE;
args CLIENT_OLE2.LIST_TYPE;
fname VARCHAR2(200) := 'c:\temp\example.doc';
BEGIN
-- set the filename
     IF :OLE_ASK_FILENAME = 'true' THEN
          fname := CLIENT_GET_FILE_NAME(null,null,null,null,OPEN_FILE,TRUE);
     END IF;
-- create a new document
app := CLIENT_OLE2.CREATE_OBJ('Word.Application');
CLIENT_OLE2.SET_PROPERTY(app,'Visible',1);
docs := CLIENT_OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Documents');
doc := CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE_OBJ(docs, 'add');
selection := CLIENT_OLE2.GET_OBJ_PROPERTY(app, 'Selection');
-- insert data into new document from long item
CLIENT_OLE2.SET_PROPERTY(selection, 'Text', :long_item);
-- save document as example.doc
args := CLIENT_OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
CLIENT_OLE2.ADD_ARG(args, fname);
CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE(doc, 'SaveAs', args);
CLIENT_OLE2.DESTROY_ARGLIST(args);
-- close example.doc
args := CLIENT_OLE2.CREATE_ARGLIST;
CLIENT_OLE2.ADD_ARG(args, 0);
CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE(doc, 'Close', args);
CLIENT_OLE2.DESTROY_ARGLIST(args);
CLIENT_OLE2.RELEASE_OBJ(selection);
CLIENT_OLE2.RELEASE_OBJ(doc);
CLIENT_OLE2.RELEASE_OBJ(docs);
-- exit MSWord
CLIENT_OLE2.INVOKE(app,'Quit');
END;
Have you actually quit the application?

XML Report Issue while generating the Report in EXCEL

Hi All,
I have Created the XML Report which will generate the output in EXCEL format. I am having the issue with the report output in EXCEL.
In my Case,
If I ran the concurrent it got completed normally and the output got completed normally and the output is generated successfully if the data for the input parameter combinations exists.
Issue is if there is no data exists for the combinations of parameters choosen then it gives the output in excel with the headers alone some times. (meaning there is no combinations of data exists for the input given excel is having headers alone).
wiseversa
sometimes the output in excel there is no header part too..(meaning the excel is empty/null).
Could anyone suggest how to resolve the issue so that the output in excel can include the header part if the data not exists for the input given. so that it should not generate the output as blank in excel i want the header alone should be included even if the report has no data for the input combination given.
Its very urgent issue.
Any suggestion will be a great help for me.
Thanks ,
Ravi.

What is the role of Lns process in oracle 10g data guard

Hi ,
plz help me out to find out the actual working of lns process in oracle 10g data guard
when i use SYNC redo transport
the output of v$managed_stanbdy is like that ..
PROCESS PID STATUS CLIENT_PROCESS GR# SEQ#
ARCH 9258 CLOSING ARCH 2 498
ARCH 9260 CLOSING ARCH 1 499
ARCH 9262 CLOSING ARCH 2 496
ARCH 9264 CLOSING ARCH 1 497
LGWR 9206 CLOSING LGWR 2 482
its not display any info about lns,thats means lns is not working in SYNC redo transport mode ?
but if i changed it to ASYNC then the out put of v$managed_stanbdy is like this ..
PS PID STS CPS GR# SEQ#
ARCH 9258 CLOSING ARCH 1 509
ARCH 9260 CLOSING ARCH 2 510
ARCH 9262 CLOSING ARCH 1 505
ARCH 9264 CLOSING ARCH 2 508
LGWR 9206 CLOSING LGWR 1 503
LNS 10528 CLOSING LNS 2 510
Now it display all the info about lns process...
i read in oracle documentation that lns process send redo data from primary,( through network service ) to RFS on standby side.
but first output means that lns is not working,if not then which process send redo from primary to RFS on standby ?
i also read in some blog that lgwr use some extra buffer size from primary db SGA ,to write redo in that buffer ,ans lns read redo from that buffer and send it to RFS on stanby side,
i m totally confused ..can u plz help me with correct logic behind this .
thanx in advance.

Hello,
On the primary database when you run the v$managed_standby, it shows up the LNS process as this process sends redo info to the standby database and on the standby database the RFS process receives the redo information.
So on the primary database when you query the v$managed_standby, it shows up LNS and on the standby database when you query the v$managed_standby it shows up RFS. Please let us know where you are running the query.

Please help - A new Excel process with each switch to Preview Mode

I've noticed via Task Manager that every time I hit the "Preview" button, a new Excel process is created in Windows. However, the Excel process is neither discarded when leaving Preview Mode, nor reused the next time you switch to Preview Mode.
After several previews, you end up with a bunch of Excel processes in Windows, consuming resources (particularly memory). These process do not get killed when you close Xcelsius (you have to manually terminate them).
In the end, Xcelsius crashes every couple of hours (maybe because of this issue, I haven't proved it yet).
I'm currently using Win Vista Business 32-Bits (fully patched), Office 2007 (fully patched), Xcelsius 2008 Engage with latest SP and FP.
Has anyone experienced this situation? Is there any workaround for this issue?
Thanks in advance,

'dimension attribute was not found' error while refresing the cube in Excel

Dear All,
Thanks for all your support and help.
I need an urgent support from you as I am stuck up here from nearly past 2-3 days and not getting a clue on it.
I have re-named a dimension attribute 'XX' to 'xx' (Caps to small)in my cube and cleared all dependencies (In Attribute relationship tab as well).
But while refreshing the data in excel client (of course after processing the full cube) I get an error
'Query (1, 1911) the [Dimension Name].[Hierarchy Name].[Level Name].[XX] dimension attribute was not found' error.
Here I am trying to re-fresh an existing report without any changes with the new data.
Does not it re-fresh automatically if we clear the dependencies or there something that I am missing here (Like order of the dependencies).
Cube processed completely after modifications and able to create new reports without any issues for same data. What else could be the reason?
Can some one help me here?
Thanks in Advance and Regards,

Thnaks alot Vikram,
In se11 ,when i was trying to activate the /BIC/FZBKUPC , it is showing the warnings like
Key field KEY_ZBKUPCP has num. type INT4: Buffering not possible, Transport restricted.What it means.
In PErformance Window it is showing like:
A numeric type was used for a key field. A table of this sort cannot be buffered.When buffering, the table records for numeric values cannot be stored in plain text.
Procedure
You can enter "no buffering" as an attribute of the technical settings and then repeat the activation process. The table is not buffered.
If you want to buffer the table, you must replace the type in the key field by a character type, i.e. that you must modify the table.
Please adivice with your valueable suggestyions.
Thanks Vikram.

Error: Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed.

Post Author: sagimann
CA Forum: Deployment
Hello,
I'm not sure if this is due to bad deployment, but I suspect it is, at least due to bad environment.
My env is:
Solaris 10 64 bit
Oracle 10g client installed under /opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1
BOXIR2 + FP2.6 installed under /opt/reporting, running under user 'bouser'. by the way, 'tnsping' works via that user.
Important bouser env:
ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1
TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib32
I reboot the box, then start BO like so:
cd /opt/reporting/bobje
. setup/env.sh
./mysqlstartup.sh
./startservers
./tomcatstartup
Then, I import a BIAR file with some reports, and whenever I try to open any report via infoview, I get a gray error message INSTEAD of the input param form:
Error:
Your request could not be completed because a failure occurred while the report was being processed. Please contact your system administrator.
This does not occur in our BOXIR2 on Windows, which is why I'm guess it's a deployment/env issue. The main obstacle I have is: how do I diagnose this? there's nothing in the bobje/logging folder, nothing in the /var/adm/message file except for the following line:
May 5 15:23:23 testbox1 boe_pagesd[3865]: [ID 253862 user.error] A failure occurred while the Page Server was processing report 'test report' (id=777) for user Administrator
pls advise,
thank you.

The solution is to turn off the printer preference (bottom of Page Setup screen) in the Crystal Report before uploading to the Server. Thanks to: http://pinchii.com/home/2011/12/error-adding-reports-to-crystal-reports-server/
The explanation, from a comment in the above linked blog post:
"To elaborate more on the error, what basically happens is that the Crystal Reports engine tries to get the status of the u201Creport printeru201D aka u201Cdefault printeru201D which was present on the system when the report was created, but the printer does not exist anymore. This causes the Crystal engine to error out. By setting the report to u201CNo Printeru201D, it tells the Crystal Engine not to look for that report printer when opening the report."

How to improve the efficiency of EXCEL export?

I've found a not too small issue of the built-in EXCEL export function. We have a page which let the users query a huge table and return a report page. The query takes long time, however the users are tolerable enough to stand that since they know the size of the table. Nonetheless, the process to export to EXCEL would take almost the same time (maybe a little bit shorter) as the query, which is in-tolerable. It seems that the built-in function just Re-run the query against the table and sends the file to the excel file. Is there any way to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance.
Have a nice weekend!

That is a good idea.
You can dump your query output into the collection and base the report region off of that collection. The Excel output just re-runs the region query so if you base the report region on the collection, you are done (you don't need to manually do just the export)

OLAP 10g with Excel 2007 crashing problems

We currently have a 10g database and 10g OLAP toolset. We have a user population split between Windows XP on Excel 2003 and Windows 7 on Excel 2007. We are distributing the Excel Add-In 10.1.2.3.0.2 version, but the Windows 7/Excel 2007 users are having a lot of problems with Excel crashing unless it is the only application that is open (which is understanably frustrating to that user base). They have to go into task manager and kill the excel process (not just the application) or face doing a full reboot. Are there any settings we can change to improve performance on Excel 2007? We hope to do an 11g upgrade later this year, but it won't happen until 2nd half at the earliest due to other contstraints.

First verify if the patch was successfully installed by checking the Xcelsius application version from the Help Menu. It should be 4.2.5.5 or higher.
In addition, that might be behavior due to an Excel add-in affecting the automation between Xcelsius and Excel. You may need to remove any Excel add-ins that you have installed.
