Opening an Excel 2003 file in Office 2010 Universal Data Connection error when opening the file from a domain.

Hi.
One of my users are having problem with old accounting files in Excel 2003 when opening Excel 2010.
The user experience that linked information is not being updated properly.
And suspects that it something do with Universal Data Connection .
How can an Excel 2003 spread sheet be converted to Excel 2010 spread sheet and still contain active links?
When the user is opening and converting the file as mention in your suggestion, on the common share on a common domain, the links "breaks".
we are not using SharePoint on our domain.
But when doing it on a local machine, the links does not "breaks".
Looking forward to get solved to this problem.
Thank you in advance.

it sounds link, the links changed from relative paths to absolute path. You need to use absolute path in original file.

Error when uploading; the file name is invalid, or the file is too big

Hi, I have posted this topic also in this thread, but we are not getting any answer to this problem. Also, the existing discussion in this thread gives us no idea what to do.
We get the a.m. message when using the "FILE-UPLOAD" UI element only for selected users and for these only in IE8 and not in Firefox.
So we believe that the cause for the error is likely on the client side, especially in some IE settings.
Is there any advice available what to look for and where to check?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
close Jdev, remove all bar one of the lruFiles item nodes in preferences.xml in \JDevHome10.1.3.1\system\oracle.ide.10.1.3.39.84
(note i am using 10.1.3.1)
when you are finished it should look something like this:
<lruFiles>
            <Item class="oracle.ide.editor.RecentFile">
               <editor>oracle.jdevimpl.help.HelpSystemAddin</editor>
               <explicit>false</explicit>
               <nodeURL path="../../../jdevstudio10131/jdev/doc/ohj/bc4jjavadoc.jar" jar-entry="oracle/jbo/server/ViewObjectImpl.html.help"/>
               <projectURL/>
               <workspaceURL/>
            </Item>
</lruFiles>restard Jdev
this has worked for me for this specific error a few times.

Data target error when opening InfoPackage (not loadable)

Hi,
I have transported my objects from the development environment to QA environment, but now when I try to open one specific InfoPackage (in QA) to schedule a data load to an DSO, I receive the following error:
Data target 'P_USUARIO ' removed from list of loadable targets; not loadable RSM 33
Data target 'P_USUARIO ' is not active or is incorrect; no loading allowed RSM 36
I tried to run RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL program before realizing that it is not relevant in NW04s and I tried to transport many times again this specific data target with no success.
Any suggestion??
Thanks in advance.
Raphael

Hi:
The program you ran is for Transfer Structure.
The error you are gettign is for an Inactive Update Rule.
If the infopackage is loading several data targets and an update rule is inactive, then, you have take off laoding to that Update Rule in Infopackage.
First, see which Update Rule is Inactive. Look in all the tabs of infopackage and you will find it.

How can I change the file version for scanned PDFs to 1.4 when using the "PDF from Scanner" feature from Acrobat XI? By default it's always saved as 1.5.

Because our IT system can only handle PDFs with versions up to 1.4, we need to "PDF from scanner" feature to store the scanned PDFs in version 1.4.
Acrobat 9 always saved it in 1.4, but starting with Acrobat X, the PDFs are saved in 1.5.
There must be a setting or configuration somewhere where I can change this.
I already tried modifying the distiller's standard joboptions, but that did not work.
Thanks for any help

We use in our software an open-source pdf library that only supports pdf versions up to 1.4. I know it is old, but it's not that simple to exchange it.
But I just had a look into the Actions as you suggested. This way I get it to work. It costs one additional click, so that's acceptable.
Thanks for the support.

Error when opening XLSX file with Excel 2003 SP3, file does open but in read only mode with temporary name

I am using Excel 2003 SP3 and have the Office 2007 compatibility pack installed. When I open Office 2007 formatted Excel files (XSLX) directly in Windows Explorer, I receive the following error if I do not have Excel already opened:
"Windows cannot find '<path to file>'. Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again. To search for a file, click the Start button, and then click Search."
Even though I receive the error, the file does open; however, it opens in Read Only mode with a name such as "Xl0000024.xls". The number seems to increment up each time it happens.
Now here is the strange part. If I have Excel already open and try to open the file in Windows Explorer, the file opens fine in Modify mode with no error and with the correct file name.
I Googled the error I was getting and found KB211494. It says I should uncheck the box in Options on the General tab that says "Ignore other applications", but this box is already unchecked in my case. Any other ideas? This is
really frustrating as a small percentage of our company has upgraded to Office 2007 with the rest still on Office 2003.

This may be a file association problem. To solve that:
In Windows 7:
1. Right-click the file,
2. Select "Open With"
select [Your Program Here]
3. Check always use this program.
In Windows XP:
1. Locate the file as you have described above
2. Right click the file
3. Select Open with from the pop-up menu
4. Click Choose default program…
5. Select Excel in the Recommended Programs box
6. Check Always use the selected program to open this kind of file
7. Click on OK.
1. Make Excel not available from Office 2007 listed under Programs and Features in Control Panel.
2. Take a registry backup using the steps given here
3. In the registry editor window expand HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and navigate to .xls right and delete it.
4. Exit Registry Editor
5. Undo Step 1 to make Excel available.
6. Restart the computer and verify it the issue is fixed.

Unable to add PST file in office 2010

Hello - -

I followed exactly what they said in the discussions - - apply "fix it" tool....theirs issues resolved in the end. Mine still didn't. Anybody knew how to fix this issue? Help will be much appreciated - - PLEASE HELP!!
Here was the message posted in the link:
When I try to add a PST file into Outlook 2010 I get this error message: "an unknown error occurred, error code: 0x8007002". I've tried repairing and re-installing the Office suite but
no luck.
When I click "Add" under "Data Files" tab on "Account Settings" window I get this error message. I've also tried opening the PST files from "File"
-> "Open" -> "Ope Outlook Data files (PST)" and I got a different error as below.
"Cannot find this file. verify the path and file name are correct."
There is no problem with the PST files as I get these errors as soon as I click the "Add" button.
Any suggestions would be appreciated!!
Another message: "An unknown error occurred,
error code: 0x80070002

Hi
As per the information and details provided by you, to add a PST file in Office 2010, please follow these steps: -
Are you trying move this file to
some directory in your profile? May be you using some protected path.
And also check this file
Properties/Security/Full Control = Allow – If you have not, then set it using admin rights.
I hope this information will be helpful for you.
Thanks and regards

Powerpivot 2012 on Excel 2010 - External Data connections not saving passwords, having to re-enter password EVERYTIME I refresh data

Hey Guys,
Using Excel 2010 with latest version of Powerpivot 2012 available 11.1.3129.0
For my SQL Server Data connections in Powerpivot I DO NOT have any issue, when clicking refresh it never asks me to enter a password and uses my Windows AD info.
However, for my plethora of other external data connections (Informix, Oracle, Etc...) that I would like to have fluid use within Powerpivot, big problems.
Lets start with Oracle. Below is a screenshot of my connection tab within Powerpivot.
So as you can see, all the details are entered and Allow Saving Password is selected. Now I will close out of Powerpivot and Excel completely and re-open. I will navigate to the Powerpivot tab
and select Powerpivot Window. And then will select to "Refresh All" and am quickly prompted with the "Data Source Credentials" window to re-enter my data source password, again.
What I have already tried. The above method for starters in which I use a connection string under Table Import Wizard --> Others (OLEDB/ODBC)... I found it the least annoying route, although
still have to re-enter password everytime, which is what I hope this forum can help with.
I also have tried doing a direct Oracle connection in Table Import Wizard but also does not eliminate my #1 problem.
I have also created an ODC file to try and use that with stored credentials within the file, also still asks for password each and everytime.
The same thing happens with my other data connections to Informix and DB2. So any help and/or suggestions anyone has would be great. I also cant upload these powerpivots to our powerpivot gallery
on SharePoint 2010, I have a sneaking suspicion it is due to the version of powerpivot I am currently using.
Thanks

Hi there,
My company is not using Excel 2013, only 2010. So that is what I have to work with. From what I have read this is a huge hole in the Powerpivot 2012 framework and is extremely frustrating. This seems so basic and simple and like something everyone using
this product would use, and yet it still doesnt work.
Great feedback. Connect is the right place for this feedback on 2010 as well. Thanks!

Outlook 2010 gives error when opening a PowerPoint attachment.

Outlook 2010 gives error when opening a PowerPoint attachment.
Hi All,
We have several VIP employees that are getting the following error on all PowerPoint documents that come as attachments from Outlook.
I have researched and tried the following steps and verified these settings are already applied.
I did find a work around but not a fix and our security team will NOT allow me to change this setting however if I uncheck the setting all employees can open the outlook attachment.
Any other ideas on a fix for this if I am unable to uncheck Enable Protected View.

Hi Matthew,
This is a perennial problem, here is a thread which has a deep discussion about this issue:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/07f710a5-a6ca-4256-8f27-6aac41a6b37e/outlook-2010-unable-to-open-word-excel-and-power-point-attachments-from-an-email?forum=outlook
It looks like nobady really find a solution there, the only workaround is what you have found - change the protected view setting in Trust Center. You will lose some security by doing this but it seems to be the only solid solution currently.

I get missing plug-in error when opening my online bill which is in PDF format. I am using a 2010 Macbook with the latest version of Safari and Adobe suite installed in my computer. Why do I get this error? What should I do?

I get missing plug-in error when opening my online bill which is in PDF format. I am using a 2010 Macbook with the latest version of Safari and Adobe suite installed in my computer. Why do I get this error? What should I do?

In relation to my previous inquiry regarding inability to view a pdf file using Safari...
Is it possible that I can view other online bills from other website but not this particular bill from one specific website?
Sorry if I missed any important point in this article -->Apple Safari 5.1 and Adobe Reader/Acrobat Advisory
Thanks again!

Travel and detours have kept me from following up sooner. If the problem that you wrote about still persists.....
Let us go back over that Adobe document regarding troubleshooting damaged projects.
3. Delete the Application Preferences
Where you able to follow that path and delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file at the end of the path? And, after you did, did the saved/closed programs still refuse to open? If you could not carry out this procedure, what were the limiting factors that kept you from do
7. Test to see if individual media files are causing the problem.
That is an important one. How far did you get into following the instructions given in the document? If you could not complete the test, what was the major block that prevented you from doing so?
I want to make sure that we have gone through everything in that document and ruled all factors there in or out. If it was a matter of you not understanding the instructions, I am hoping that the above will channel you questions to me so that I can clarify anything that you did not understand in the Adobe document instructions.
I do not recall if I asked previously. Even if you cannot open all your saved/closed projects, can you still open a new project and save/close it? Maybe even reopen it?
Please review and consider.
Thank you.
