Possible to use Ms Excel data as a dataprovider in Flashbuilder for charting

My dept has an excel spreadsheet with sales data. I'd like to know if anyone has used Excel data for charting in Flashbuilder? Does anyone know of any resources or samples?
Thanks in advance.

Looks like I found my own answer.
Seems that all I need to do was convert my Header data into a 2D array.
Don't know why that one was so tricky to figure out. But it's working now.

Sequence: possible to use sequence in "Data" tab

Hello,
I have one question concerning the "Data" tab in Developer which makes it possible to enter rows like in an excel sheet.
Is it possible to use a sequence in a direct way here? Entering "<sequence_name>".nextval or ""<sequence_name>".currval" just puts the string like "s.nextval" or "s.currval" in a varchar2-field.
Trying to put "s.nextval" in a number-field results in ORA-01722 which means invalid number.
Would be very helpful when there is a way to do this?
Thanks a lot in advance for answers how I can achieve this.

SQL Developer has a small utility that does what Jim describes. Select Tables, right -click to invoke the context menu, then select Trigger -> Create (PK from SEQUENCE). The context menu title is misleading in a sense that you might want to populate any column and you can, but in general this can be used to populate the PK with the next value in a sequence. (Assuming you have created the sequence)

Is it possible to use Microsoft excel on iPad?

Is it possible to use all the functionality of Microsoft excel on an Ipad. I can currently view spreadsheets but I can't edit, filter/sort them the way I can on my PC?
Many thanks

Is it possible to use an XML Data Template to create a report in APEX?

Hi,
I have created an XML Data Template in BI Publisher passing one parameter and running two queries, then created an RTF Document Template to present the data.
I can create a nice report in BI Publisher using the two elements. I have used RTF Document Templates to publish reports in APEX but the data comes from a Report region running a single query.
I would like to run a report based in this kind of XML Data Template, in order to use several children queries related to a parent query. Is it possible to do it in APEX, or you have to use BI Publisher?

Hi,
I have the similar question. I used data templates in BI Publisher but now I want to use the same data template in Apex to print some reports.
I tried to some examples but these were only using report queries. I also tried with the Web Service but this didn't work for me either maybe because I didn't
used it in the right way. When I used the WS I received the binary of the report so the WS worked it was just the how and where to use it that didn't work for me.
Now this older entry is BUMPED maybe we find a solution for our problem this way.

HT201250 Is it possible to use Dropbox or Microsoft OneDrive as the backup disk for time machine?

I have a MacBook Pro for which I have not set up Time Machine. I have a Dropbox account and a Microsoft OneDrive account, each with plenty of space to serve as backups. Is it possible to use either of these as THE backup disk for Time Machine? It doesn't appear intuitive from Time Machine on my MBP.
Thank you.

No. Time Machine does not work with "cloud" drives.

Is it possible to Save an Excel Data form as a User form.

This Question has come up before, but I think the OP was misunderstood. http://community.spiceworks.com/topic/194594-can-an-excel-spreadsheet-be-turned-into-a-fillable-form...I have a group of rather large spread sheets each represents an inventory for a "service"I can use the Form command on the Ribbon to get an Entry form for that flat Database no problem; but that form is absurdly long, and cumbersome. And while I could duplicate the form by hand it seems a waste when Excel can create the form in about a second. What I really need to be able to do is save, and edit; Reorganize the form. So my group can use it for Data Entry, and print copies of the form for the service audit. Your help is hugely appreciated. Tom.
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

Thanks, bifocals, but it's not working that way.
Here's what happens:
I open the email with the xls attachment.
I click on the attachment and select Open Attachment, then Edit with Documents to Go.
Nothing happens, it brings me back to the original email.
I tried the same thing but instead of selecting Open Attachment, I hit Download Attachment
Next screen is "Select Folder", defaults to "...ckBerry/documents/Up, but I also created a new folder called test.
If I select the test folder, the next screen is:
Select Here
Select Folder
Up
View Thumbnails
View Titles
Open
New Folder
Delete
Rename
Properties
Receive Using Bluetooth
Hide
Close
So I assumed that it would be "Select Here", but again, it takes me back to my email message and nothing opens.
If I go to Documents to Go, select the Excel to Go, and Open Files... and browse to the test folder (it's there!), it does a quick Scan and the only result is the Up folder.
It's so annoying! Some people in other forums have suggested that it's because it's an xls file and not a media file, hence the name media card, but I find that hard to believe.
Please let me know your thoughts. Many, many thanks.

The spreadsheet opens fine, I can view it with no problems.

How to use the cgicmd.dat to specify a directory name for desname

Hi folks,
What I'm trying to do is use a command key to specify the directory for a file, specified via desname. Here's an example.
cgicmd.dat
custom_reports_dir: /some/directory/custom_reports
Then I want to reference it via something like this..
http://server:7777/reports/rwservlet?cmdkey=rpt_connect&destype=file&desname=custom_reports_dir/test.pdf&desformat=pdf
Where in the above example, I'm trying to use the command key to specify a directory name, and then append a file name to it. It isn't working for me, is this possible to do? I figure since it's not an argument in itsself, it's being interpreted literally, rather than being substituted for the parameter.
Thanks very much,
-Adam vonNieda

That depends on how you actually run your program in the first place. If you just use a batch file you could simply make the path to the javaw.exe relative (e.g. jre\javaw.exe �cp lib\myJar.jar com.MyClass). Or you could look into some third-party software that allows you to create installations packages for Java. I have used Zero G's InstallAnywhere before and they have support for you setting up their executables to use a bundled jre. I am sure all the other java install makers have similar functionality.

Is it possible to use multiple macs/iphones/ipads with single apple tv for an exhibition?

Hellow everyone,
Wondering if some genius out there can help me come up with a solution, or whether this is just too pie in the sky!!
So, I'm exhibiting at a huge conference at the end of the month and want the following set up:
MacBook Pro Retina showing a video loop through AirPlay Mirroring
MacBook Pro showing exmaples of my work in safari photoshop etc through AirPlay Mirroring
iPhone (4s with iOS7) to show examples of my work in safari through AirPlay Mirroring
iPad (iPad 2 with iOS7) to show examples of my work in safair through AirPlay Mirroring
So, basically I want the video loop to play constantly and act as a screensaver almost, then when the sitution dictates I can quickly switch what is being shown on the AppleTV to whichever device I am at.
As an example, the video loop is happily playing. Someone comes up to me and wants to talk about responsive web design. I whip out my iPad and load up an example site in safari. if I turn on my AirPlay Mirroring, great the AppleTV will update and show what is on my iPad. Great, but what about when I've finished with this person. I turn AirPlay Mirroring off on my iPad and the ApplTV goes back to the main menu because it has kicked out my MacBook Pro. Imagine this scenairo happening time and itme again.
The question is, is there anyway of making some kind of heirachy where my MacBook Pro with the video is the default source, then the Apple switches depending on what is selected, then reverts back to the MacBook Pro??
Or, is there a neat little app that I can run from another iphone (almost using is as a remote) to select which source the Apple TV shows and all the devices are constantly running AirDisplay?
Possibly asking a bit too much here, but it would be amazing if I could get some form of solution that allows me to use minimum wires and no fidly changing channels on the tv with a remote!!
Many thanks in advance!
David

take have to take turns
and you have to disable one and enable the other manually

Why Web services are used to send data not HTTP in Web dynpro for Java?

Is Web Dynpro for Java supports Web service , RFC as communication to other systems why http cannot be used in Wweb dynpro for java.........
Thanks and Regards,
CSP

Hi Pradeep,
Yes, Web Dynpro java supports web service, you can expose your web service as RFC Model to
communicate with others system. As per as HTTP is concern we don't have any
supportive method in web Dynpro. Insted of HTTP we use context in web dynpro to communicate.

Use a Excel template when saving a csv export

Hi!
I wonder if it is possible to use an excel template when export data from a report to excel? If so, is there anyone who have an example how to do this?
Regards
/Ulf Jonsson

Hi Ulf,
CSV is a generic standard for exchanging tabular data in flat files.
You can not pass any processing instructions through CSV, for formatting or dynamic behavior in Excel.
SYLK is a text-based interchange format for spreadsheets; it supports formulas, borders, fonts, point sizes, etc. SYLK is supported by Excel and other spreadsheet packages. SYLK is the RTF of spreadsheets. The problem with SYLK is that it is not well documented.
Maybe you need to look after a license of Oracle BI Publisher for your Apex environment to do more sophisticated publishing.
I have no experience with that.

Martijn

Using a SQL data source and XML data source in the same template

I am trying to develop a template for the Request for Quote report generated in Apps 11.5.10. I have loaded the data from the XML output into the template, but I am missing one field - I need the org_id from the po_headers table. Is it possible to use a sql data source (i.e., "select org_id from po_headers_all where po_header_id = [insert header_id from xml data]...") in addition to the xml data source to populate the template at runtime? When you use the Insert > SQL functionality is it static at the time the template is created, or does it call to the database at runtime? I've looked through all the docs I could find, but this isn't clear.
Thanks for any help or suggestions you may have.
Rhonda

Hi Pablo
Thats a tough one ... if you go custom with a data template you will at least get support on the data template functionality ie you have a problem when you try and build one. You will not get support on the query inside the data template as you might have gotten with the Oracle Report, well you could at least log a bug against development for a bad query.
Eventually that Oracle Report will be converted by development anyway, theres an R12 project going on right now to switch the shipped OReports to data templates. AT this point you'll be fully supported again but:
1. You have to have R12 and
2. You'll need to wait for the patch
On reflection, if you are confident enough in the query then Oracle will support you on its implementation within a data template. Going forward you may be able to swap out your DT and out in the Oracle one without too much effort.

How can I be using so much data on my iPhone 5

How can I possibly be using so much data on my iPhone. I usually listen to Pandora for about an Hour each day I drive to work. So far (the first 8 days of my billing cycle I have used about 1 GB of data. According to Verizon's calculations I based on this usage I should be using a total of about 1.5 GB of data/month. I called both Verizon and Apple and received no resolution. Apple confirmed that the Phone's wifi shuts off WIFI when the phone is asleep. Resulting in the phone switching to LTE. Apple also indicated that apps that are in the background tend to use data as well. This still doesn't make sense. I had the same data usage pattern (Pandora) with my old 3GS and only used about 1GB/ month. There has got to be another solution. I refuse to believe that just using Pandora for about an hour/day for 5/days a week results in a GB of data usage. Any suggestions?

So, I thought itunes match (like Pandora) streams music from the cloud. I didn't think that the phone 'syncs' several times a day. I did notice a pattern between 11am-1pm data being used in the order of 29 mb yesterday, 42 mb the day before, and 43 mb the day before that. This is at a time when I know I am not using any significant data on my phone. Yesterday I even closed all my apps w/the exception of Pandora which I made sure wasn't running during the day. This additional usage can easily add up to the 100 mb/day i'm averaging.

Using REST-based data in SolMan

Hi,
In the [Apache Project ESME|http://incubator.apache.org/esme], we have made JMX-based data available via a REST interface. This is partially related to restrictions that are present in many cloud-based environments. We are looking to see how existing enterprise monitoring systems might be able to use this data.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use REST-based data in SolutionManager?
Thanks.

Hi Alfred
I tried to use nested tables and varrays in forms several times but also wasn't able to do so. The problem is that on the client side there are not all the PL/SQL 8 features implemented. Look what the manual says:
"Not all Oracle8 features are currently supported across this release.
The major unsupported features are:
- Collection types (nested tables and
varying arrays, or varrays)
- Stored procedures that return object
values
- Scalar datatypes NCHAR and NVARCHAR2
You should also be aware that, although this release does support PL/SQL 8, client-side PL/SQL 8 does not yet fully support all the features in the Oracle8 Server. (Server-side PL/SQL 8 support is complete.)"
So you'll have to wait for the next release or a patch I guess. Please correct me if I am mistake.
Hope this was kind of useful
