Opening Excel sheet in Excel Application instead of browser

Hi,
I need to open an excel sheet from a JSP. When i click the link it opens a pop-up which asks open/save. This is fine. but when i click open it opens the excel sheet in the IE itself. I want the excel sheet to be opened using MS Excel Application. This is the piece of code i have used:
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment;filename="+ displayFileName);
Also the pop-up does not show the "displayFileName" as set by me but some other name.
Please help me out regarding this!
Thanks in Advance!!!

I think that for that you have to use java with activeX

or if possible use the runtime library to call the excel executable and send it arguments.

How to downlaod vednor master data into excel sheet in SAP Application serv

Hi friends
I want to download SAP vendor master data into excel sheet and the file should be stored in SAP Application server Location with padding zeros.
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi Ramesh,
It is not possible to download data in Excel file on application server. You can better download the same in tab separated text file and then convert that text file to XLS.
Please do not open multiple threads for same problem.

How to downlaod vednor master data into excel sheet in SAP Application ser

Hi friends
I want to download SAP vendor master data into excel sheet and the file should be stored in SAP Application server Location with padding zeros.
Please help me.
Thanks

Hi Ramesh,
You can download the data into application server using the following code. You will have the vendor details in the internal table. Then you will open a file and transfer the data as follows.
*   Download internal table to Application server file(Unix)
DATA: e_file like rlgrap-filename value '/usr/sap/tmp/file.txt'.
open dataset e_file for output in text mode.
lOOP AT it_datatab......
    transfer it_datatab to e_file.
ENDLOOP.
close dataset e_file.
In application server you will have only files and not excel sheets.

Upload Specific Excel Sheet from excel file in sap internal table..

I have an excel sheet and it contains many sheets.. I want to read a specific sheet no.. or that sheet would have sheet name.. i want to read that specific sheet and load its data in the internal table.

Hello,
In this case you need to create OLE object and then get specific workbook using it's method.
For e.g.:
CREATE OBJECT gh_excel 'EXCEL.APPLICATION'.
CALL METHOD OF gh_excel 'Workbooks'= gh_mapl.
You can search SAP help for more information on using OLE objects.
Thanks,
Augustin.

Unable to open forms when Launching another application on same browser.

Hi,
I have a server with configuration Oracle EBS 12.1.1 on RHEL 5.5, Database 11.1.0.7. On client machine we use Internet explorer, Firefox and Chrome to access the EBS and forms.
We are able to open the forms from all browsers, but problem arise when we access another application on same browser, resulting in not opening of oracle forms.
This is a java application using the same database on the server. This application works fine but Our Oracle Forms has to face the problems.
When we try to launch the forms, it results in FRM-92101 error. I read the MOS documents for
R12: "FRM-92101:There was a failure in the Forms Server during startup" Error When Attempting to Launch Forms [ID 454427.1]
Then I checked the application log file, it says that:
13/08/12 18:47:41.891 formsweb: Forms session <207> failed during startup: no response from runtime process
13/08/12 18:50:43.704 formsweb: Forms session <209> aborted: runtime process failed during startup with errors
Unable to switch to Working Directory: /oracle/TEST/apps/tech_st/10.1.3/forms
When I further investigate I found there is no such "forms" directory under "/oracle/TEST/apps/tech_st/10.1.3".
Then I read Oracle Notes:
FRM-92101 : Unable To Switch To Working Directory. (Doc ID 1434888.1)
FRM-92101 Error in Application.log: Unable to Switch to Working Directory (Doc ID 432708.1)
But no luck with all these. Please suggest something. Can't open both application simultaneously on same browser.
Regards,
Prashant Namdeo

Hi,
Please state whether the application was working fine before.
Please provide log file of:
--$LOG_HOMEora/10.1.3/j2ee/forms/forms_default_group_1/application.log
--DB alert logfile --check whether you can find any valuable information.
Please have a look at the following MOS notes:
FRM-92050 java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no frmjsl in java.library.path [ID 438522.1]
Troubleshooting FRM-92XXX Errors in Oracle Applications [ID 365529.1]
And have a look at:

Comparing 2 excel sheet in excel 2010

Hi
I am running report where I am comparing data from last month to current month.
lets take an example here
sheet 1
A B
abc inc 20,000
xyz ltd 30,000
Qrs Co 40,000
wxy pvt 80,000
abc inc 10,000
sheet 2
A B
abc inc 80,000
xyz ltd 40,000
Qrs Co 40,000
MnO inc 60,000
PQR 10,000
abc 20,000
What I am looking to here is
1) Identify the change like XYZ from 30k-40k
2) Mno and PQR added to sheet 2
3) wXy not in sheet 2
4) shows right abc value

sheet 1
abc inc 20,000
abc inc 10,000
sheet 2
abc inc 80,000
abc 20,000
I have quoted the related part only and therefore this is not
possible, except you define
special rules.
You can use a simple VLOOKUP formula to get the values in sheet2 from sheet1, but only when the value in column A is unique.
This is the basic
requirement for comparing any records.If this is not
given, then all attempts are only
guessing games.

Link in the Task Mail opens the form in Infopath Designer instead of browser

Hello,
I have designed an InfoPath form and associated a SP designer workflow.
It is a approval workflow. When a new form is submitted, using the "Send Email" action in the workflow, it notifies the approver that a new form has been submitted and needs approval. In the mail body, I have used the Current Item's "URL Path"
for the user to be taken to the submitted form directly.
This opens up the form, but instead of the browser, it forcefully opens the form in the InfoPath designer. I have set the forms to open in the browser in the advanced settings of the library.
Where and what else change do I still need to perform for the form to open in the browser?
Thanks,
Guru

Hi,
From your description, I am not quite sure your issue clearly, my understanding is that you want to send item URL to user with workflow, and the user can access the item by the
URL. Your issue is that user will download the item via the URL instead of open the item in browser. If my understanding is incorrect, could you provide detailed information or a screenshot?
Could your provide the URL that user
received in the mail?
You could try to construct the URL pointing to the current item which could be open in browser as below.
http://sp/form1/test.xml?DefaultItemOpen=1
http://sp/_layouts/15/FormServer.aspx?XmlLocation=/form1/test.xml
http://sp/_layouts/15/FormServer.aspx?XmlLocation=/form1/test.xml&ClientInstalled=true&DefaultItemOpen=1&Source=http%3A%2F%2Fsp%2Fform1%2FForms%2FAllItems%2Easpx

Click a Link and open the save-as dialog box instead of browser opening it

Basically, i have a link to an image and when i click it the browser opens the image. I would prefer that when i click the link to the image that i get some sort of save functionality to occur.
I created a link to the Google logo so it looks like Google image when clicked the browser opens the image. What i would like to do is click the link and then have the save-as dialog pop up (or something similar). Currently I would either have to right click the opened image and save image as or right click the link and then save-as that way. In this instance the file doesn't reside on the database but an external source so is there a way to save-as dialog once the link is clicked?

Sorry, I have no idea what you are doing; can you give us some details?

hi naresh
i think there is some miscommunication in case of my question,my requirement is to add a logo in excel sheet from application server,i mean when the user clicks to download the excel sheet the logo should immediately appear in the excel sheet,and it is not a fixed logo it can be anything which appears in applicaton server(on that program).
as far as excel sheet stanalone is concerned i know to do it and as well as to get the logo in the application server standalone ,but i cant download the logo in excel sheet from the application server.now does my question make sense ?

Using Olefield to embed an excel sheet

Hi Manish,
My answer may not be straight to the point.
But, let me explain what I have done with my application.
We have a similiar case here, but the difference is we are
accessing Crystal Reports where as you are accessing Excel sheet and you
are using OLE object where as we are using Active X. But the concept
is going to be the same.
Our application contains some batch process on the server which
fills up the table in our database.
Crystal report should access the table and get the data.
For this we need to pass a set of parameters through Forte.
This is acheived through the active X properties.
I think you can map excel sheet to a data base table and fetch
the data from there using some simple macros.
Hope this helps you.

hi,
I am trying to embed an MSExcel sheet in a forte application. I
