Problem in saving the spool list into Excel file.

Hello Friends,
I run a background process for a report, and storing the resulting list into Excel format file. But the result is column values jumbled, it means columns values are not sitting in the right place in excel sheet.
I also tried saving as unconverted text file and then open it using excel still the same result.
Cheers,
Senthil

Hi,
Use the FM 'EXCEL_OLE_STANDARD_DAT'.
In this FM populate the tables parameter 'fieldnames' to get each cloumn below the heading correctly.

Problem when we dowload spool list into excel.

Hello Gurus,
I have developed an custom report, The output contains 15 columns. When i run the report in foreground the output will be displayed in correct format also when i download the report list into excel(List->Save/Send->File) then the records will be downloaded in proper format(Each record under respective column heading).
But when the report is scheduled in background the spool list(SP01) is displayed in the proper format. But when I download this into excel(SppolRequest->Forward->SaveToLocal) . The excel data will be in improper format and all record value are not under respective column heading.
Can anyone advice me.
Thanks and regards,
Vinod

when i download this into excel file the original value is only coming .the calculated value i.e) calculated based on three values didnt get displayed in excel file..Help me please...
Thank u,
Manjula Devi.D

Hi.
I find that
List > Export > Spreadsheet
gives no subtotals, but
List > Export > Local File and then Spreadsheet
does give subtotals.
I find that
Views > Microsoft Excel
followed by
Save As
does give subtotals.

Reg: Download report into Excel file

Hi All,
While downloading the ALV report into excel file(System -> List -> Save -> Local file) or (List -> Export -> Local file), i cannot download full report in to excel. Even though the report contains just 200 rows(I can able to download about 90 lines).
Some reports can able to download all the data, even the report is very big. Currently I am blind to solve, anyone can help me to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

The most elegant way of downloading ALV display data to EXCEL is displaying the excel in the SAP GUI screen itself. Select "Excel in Place" and then save it from there. Before that you need to let the VB script of SAP know as trusted macro. This is done by opening a blank excel file then go to Tools > options > Security > Macro Security > Trusted Publishers (tab) > (check) Trust access to Visual Basic Project. This activation is one time activation. Once you do this you can see ALV display exactly like in normal ALV with all the colors fields etc.

No Microsoft files listed in the settings "convert into PDF files"

Hi, I wanted to convert different Microsoft Office files, but it doesn't work. There are no Microsoft files listed in the settings "convert into PDF files". I had the trial version of Adobe Acrobat Pro XI installed on a MAC in Windows that runs trough Parallels. Hope somebody can help. Thx

Hi Rahul,
many thanks for your suggestion.
Yes, Parallels is a virtual machine on the top of MAC and I can see all files in the Windows Explorer. Also the ones I created on the MAC top with the Microsoft Office Software Word or Excel for MAC as well the ones I created earlier on a Windows PC.
Unfortunately there is no possibility to convert files into PDF format with a click on the right mouse. And Adobe also doesn't open Word documents because it doesn't support this format.
But nonetheless it wouldn't be a solution that I prefer to convert in adavance every single file in a PDF format. I need to create a PDF package from different formats.
I assume this issue has to do something with MAC or Parallels, because this function of the Adobe Versions Acrobat 8 Pro and XI Pro work well on a Windows PC. I just don't understand why there are no Microsoft Office file formats listed in the Adobe settings. This settings also can't be changed. I tried to find out but couldn't find any hint for this problem thus I'm a bit at a loss... Maybe you have another idea?

How to re-read a spool, modify it and re-saving the spool.

Do u want tot retrieve the data of spool?? If so then check it out
Read Temse data from UNIX filesystem and display. You must reconstruct the relationship between Temse tables and the spool files (tables TST01 and TSP01) for this to work. Dname, Rqident, Dsize are the important fields. This was used to retreive deleted spool output pertaining to an important project. Spool cleanup job RSPO0041 deleted the spool files regardless of the Delete after date

Procedure :

Restore the spool files (assuming you employ spool_method G and also backup /sapmnt/SID/global/xxxSPOOL directory) in a temp. directory and rename them to numbers which will not overwrite the existing max(dname) in TST01.
Using ABAP or SQL copy in the same table, a row from both TST01 and TSP01 and update TST01:Dname (spool name), TST01:Dsize (size of the spool file in bytes) and TSP01:Rqident (spool number)

To make Excel sheets from sqlplus, you can use the markup html tag in sqlplus.
Here's an example.
Example
<code>

SET PAGESIZE 999
SET MARKUP HTML ON ENTMAP ON SPOOL ON PREFORMAT OFF
SPOOL c:\test_xls.xls
SELECT object_type

How do I enable the button to use the tree list in excel? (Enable the list type: Tree enabled in Office 2013 - VSTF 2013)

Hi, I was looking to see if anyone knows how I can troubleshoot my connection problem with TFS view in excel. I'm trying to produce a tree view in Office 2013 as described in the following KB -
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd286627.aspx
I have followed the instructions on the KB all the way up to : 'Add backlog items and tasks and their parent-child links using a tree list' and at this point I can't seem to get it to work as the button is greyed out.
Note that I have completed steps 1-6 for the previous procedure... all 6 steps work just fine. However on step 2 of the second procedure - the instructions state I should be able to 'Add Tree Level' - However the button is greyed out.
Anyone know what I need to do to enable the button to use the tree list in excel?
Frank

Frank,
I believe your issue is that you have opened a Flat query and are trying to add tree levels. A flat query is just that and you cannot change the query type from Excel.
The second process is managing a backlog (which is a tree). TFS web access has a link on the backlog view to create a query. That query will be a "tree of work items" query that returns the items in the backlog including their parent-child relationships.
This type of query supports the Add Tree Level and Add Child functionality as does a new Input List (not bound to an existing query).
