Please Help - Excel Cold Turkey

Hi out there,
I'm trying desperately to wean myself off Excel and onto Numbers.
I have an excel spreadsheet that contains a table of all our regular monthly payments in date order with the date the payment goes out as a number then a description in the next column then the amount in the 3rd column.
When I open the sheet, a cell contains the day of the month as a number (I can't even work out how to get todays date as a number that I can compare with in Numbers!)
Then I use the following formula to calculate the remaining bills that are left for the month.
=SUM((A3:A27>Current!D1)*(C3:C27))
ie A is the column with the bill date (as a number from 1-31), Current!D1 is todays day number in the month and C has the amounts.
When I imported the sheet into Numbers it didn't like the above formula. Can anyone tell me how I can achieve the same result in Numbers so I can get myself off of Excel?!
Thanks in anticipation,
Rob

In Numbers, the conditional SUM function is called SUMIF. You can read about it in the Numbers 08 User guide PDF, or in the Numbers Help pages.
If you don't care for that method, you can add a column in which you conditionally post the values and then SUM that new column.
Regards,
Jerry

Excel Download of a Web SAP BW Report asks userid and password.please help

Dear BW folks,
Issue: When I run a specific SAP BW Report from Web and download the same into excel & csv.
When I open the excel file downloaded, it asks me user name and password to enter. csv file downloaded doesn't ask.
The report has 0cust_sales hierarchy and SBU hierarchy.
Is there any thing to do with these hierarchies that the excel download is asking user name and password?
Please help me out!!!!! This report needs to be downloaded into excel sent to my manager.....

It is possible,please refer the below link

Also, for the time being, you can run the query and save a workbook and sent across

I am using report generation toolkit 1.1 with Labview 7.0 and Office 2003 professional. The create new report VI opens Excel but throws error (-2147167262- from automation open VI) when I try to open MS word. please help...

Hi Leo22,
Does this error occur if you use any of the example programs that come shipped with LabVIEW? I would try opening one of the examples that write data to Word and see if those give you an error. Also, have you tried just putting down a New Report.VI and change the report type to Word? If this simple vi (that's all you need to open Word) breaks, I would check to see if there are any instances of Word still open. Check the task manager to see if any word processes are still open. There should not be a problem accessing Word 2003 from LabVIEW 7.0. If neither of these solutions work, please give some more detail about your application and we can research further. Thanks!

Problem displaying an Excel File: Please Help

Hello,
I spent 3 hours this morning reading the forum on how to display an Excel file in the browser using JSP and I apologize in advance if the answer is in the forum.
I cut and paste many examples: My goal is to display an excel file on the browser.
Below is the code but the result is a disaster (please se after the code the result).
My question is how can I display an excel file using the browser. What's wrong with my code. Apparently it worked for many people on the forum.
Please help. I must do that by tomorrow and I had spent already so many hours.
THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE.
So far the forum had helped me a lot.
<%@ page language="java" import="java.io.*" %>
<%
String myfile = new String("/temp/temp.xls");
File fileName = new File(myfile);
// Setup our streams
FileInputStream fis = null;
ServletOutputStream out1 = response.getOutputStream();
// Set content type and other response header
response.setContentType(getServletContext().getMimeType(fileName.getName()));
//response.setContentType("application/excel-document");
//response.setContentType("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment; filename=\"" + fileName.getName());
response.setContentLength((int) fileName.length());
// Read in the file from the correct place and stream it to the user
int iRead;
FileInputStream stream = null;
try
stream = new FileInputStream(myfile);
while ((iRead = stream.read()) != -1)
out1.write(iRead);
out1.flush();
} catch (IOException i) {}

For those who are having the same problem than me here the solution:
In fact I was only interested in saving the file
<%@ page language="java" import="java.io.*" %>
<%
String myfile = new String("/temp/temp.csv");
response.setContentType ("application/vnd.ms-excel");
response.setHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=\""+myfile+"\"");
int iRead;
// Setup our streams
FileInputStream fis = null;
ServletOutputStream out1 = response.getOutputStream();
FileInputStream stream = null;
try
stream = new FileInputStream(myfile);
while ((iRead = stream.read()) != -1) {
out1.write(iRead);
out1.flush();
} catch (IOException i) {}

Important Microsoft Office 2011 Excel File isn't opening Please Help!

Hello everyone,
I'm having problems opening one single excel file. I've tried others and they open with no issue. This file I'm trying to open now opened 2 days ago as it's a project I've been working on and I desperately need to get back to working on it!
I'm running OS X 10.8.4 on a Macbook Pro with Microsoft Office 2011. When I open the workbook it loads the progress bar, then doesn't show anything from excel apart from the top bar with file/edit/view... etc
When I try and open it from this point it gives me a message
'XXX.xlsx is already open.
Reopening will cause any changes you made to be discarded. Do you want to reopen XXX.xlsx
PLEASE HELP and don't hesistate to ask for anymore information if you need it. Thank you.

Such instances are examples of why one should maintain good backups. I suggest you consider using Time Macnine backups. It would allow you to go back in time to earlier versions of the file if a later one is corrupted or if you save unwanted changes by mistake.
You would need a $80 external disk drive for the Time Machine volume. Your data is much more valuable than that $80 cost. Disks can fail at any time, taking all of your data with them.

Please help...excel to html

Dear,
I have a assignment about java. My platform is red hat linux, jsp, tomcat server. I don't know how to upload a excel file and display this in browser. The main problem is that how to convert excel file into html format or anyother method?
that is i want to display the excel file in jsp....Can anyone help me.
Please help me as it is very urgent. please!!
Thanks very much
joyce

Work assignment or homework for school?
joycejoyce, you're swallowing a lot here if you really are fresh to Java. Have you written any Java before taking on this assignment?
You sound like you're in a panic. Get a good book on servlets, like Jason Hunter's O'Reilly book or Marty Hall's "Core Servlets and JSPs" and start reading a little before you jump into a POI black hole.
No matter how desperate you are, you can't expect anybody watching this forum to just hand you a solution. You're going to have to do some work, and it's going to take time. Start reading, coding, and learning. Try to do something easy before you do something hard. Can you run Tomcat at all? Can you do a simple servlet and JSP and get them to work? That's a start. Do that before you tackle anything else.

HI Experts,

Hi Sai,
you can use XSLT or java mapping or adapter module to convert IDOC xml to XLS. Please refer the below blog
Convert incoming XML to Excel or Excel XML – Part 1 - XSLT Way
Convert incoming XML to Excel Sheet Part 2 – Adapter Module way
Convert incoming XML to Excel Sheet
then after converting to Excel, you can use the payloadswap bean in mail adapter

How to handle blank time value in excel download in ALV. Please help

Hi Experts,
   I have a ABAP webdynpro report which contains a ALV grid output. The ALV table has a time field (create_time of type tims).
   The problem is when the create_time value is initial (00:00:00 by default) it displays 00:00:00 in the ALV.
   When I export the contents to excel then there it shows the same value as 12:00:00 AM.
   How can I avoid this programmatically? Actually when time is initial then I want to display as blank instead of 00:00:00.
   For this if I change the data type of this field to CHAR08 then it displays the value as 0 (if initial) and 140523 (if time has some value or its not initial) instead if 14:05:23.
   I don't know if there is any better way to handle this.
Please help.
Thanks & Regards
Gopal

My suggestion is that you make the context attribute a type string. Then when you populate the data into the internal table that is bound to the context you perform a write statement on the date field. Here is some psydo-code.
if <ls_data>-time is initial.
clear <ls_output>-time.
else.
write <ls_data>-time to <ls_output>-time.
endif.
This way when the time is inital you can display nothing instead of the 00:00:00. This should also keep Excel from knowing that this column is a time field. To Excel it will just be a string and it should display whatever text you placed into the field.
Of course this means that filtering and sorting on this field won't work right. Those operations will be befored without knowledge this is actually a time field.

I have an iPad air and have downloaded the microsoft app excel. I have an email with an excel attachment. When I "tap to download" the attachment, it auto converts to a PDF file. I want it to open in excel. Please help.

I have an iPad air and have downloaded the microsoft app excel. I have an email with an excel attacment. When I "tap to download" the attachment, it automatically converts to a PDF file and opens as a "view only" document. I want it to open with the excel app so I can see and update the spreadsheet. Please help. Thanks!

If Excel works as do other apps, you should be able to tap and hold on the attachment and then select "Open in Excel" in the window that will open. Note that you need to be subscribed to and signed into Office 365 to be able to edit documents in Microsoft's apps.

Keithley to excel interfacing problem ..Please help ! !

I am currently doing project on scanning the resistance from a keithley 2700 DMM for reliability testing of thermistors.
I got the resistance value using single measurement VI.
But what i need is everytime i invoke the keithley scan based on a counter signal ,it should give the resistance value.
And all these values should get saved in an excel file one after the other along with the cycle number.
The problem i encountered is that ,"after the trigger pulse is given to keithley 2700, it gives the output only after 5 seconds. So i am not able to interface the keithley with the table and i am not able to get the previous values."
I am attaching my current VI. Here i got the 2 required outputs, but i could not import them into excel one after the other.
Please help me.
NB: here i have considered a latched boolean switch as my counter signal.
Regards

No worries. The best way to learn is to just take a look at examples. You might not know exactly why the examples are the way they are, but it will still help a lot. When I look at the ni.com/idnet page for your DMM, I get this driver:
http://sine.ni.com/apps/utf8/niid_web_display.download_page?p_id_guid=0470C9F181C02E75E0440003BA7CCD...
This driver includes an examples folder--take a look through it, and especially look at "Keithley 27XX Continuous Multi Read". I think that may do what you need, or at least a lot of it.
As to the examples, look at those links in my last post. If they don't do what you want them do, check ni.com/community and see if you can find something similar. It really comes down to how much information you need to store.
Thanks,
D Smith
