Problem opening excel files due to Hyperion Essbase Addin

When trying to open an Excel file as an attachment from Outlook (with Excel closed), Excel opens and tries to open the file. However, the file never opens. If Excel is already open and I try to open the file from Outlook, it works fine.I initially thought it was an option in Excel that needed to be changed. However the problem only started after I installed Hyperion Essbase. So I uninstalled Hyperion, and I no longer had the problem. Does anyone know why Hyperion Essbase is causing this problem?

Hi,You can also turn the add-in off from Tools | add-in menu.Hope this helps,Grofaty

Problem opening excel files exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18

I can't open excel files (xls) exported from Discoverer Plus 10.1.2.48.18 when I enable macros. The application (Excel) hangs up.
Someone have any idea about this?
Thanks,
Diego

Hi Meifang
I did some more research and found a document on MetaLink 250820.1 that talks about Discoverer not being able to call Excel if Discoverer is running via an IP address instead of a qualified domain name.
The article talks about making Discoverer a trusted site in the Internet Options of IE. Here's the relevant info from the posting:
Workaround for MS IE (if necessary):
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options Security where you will see the Trusted Sites icon (green icon with a check mark)
3. Click the Sites button
4. Add the following: http://IP:port/
(where IP, port are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
5. Click the OK button
6. Click the OK button again
On my own PC, I was having a similar problem and I was unable to get Excel to launch. In the end I did this:
1. Open a new MS IE browser
2. Navigate to: Tools | Internet Options | Security where you will see the Local Intranet icon (computer icon against a globe)
3. Click the Local Intranet button
4. Click the Sites button
5. Click the Advanced button
6. Add the following: http://IP/ or http://website
(where IP or website are the location of where Discoverer server is running)
7. Click the Add button
8. Click the OK button
9. Click the OK button again
10. Click the OK button a third time
With this done, I made sure that my Explorer settings were correct by doing the following to ensure that a couple of settings for the .xls & .html file types are unchecked:
1. Open Windows Explorer
2. Navigate to: Tools | Folder Options | File Types tab
3. Highlight the Extension XLS (or HTML)
4. Click the Advanced button
5. At the botton of the screen are three settings that use checkboxes. If either of the following two are checked, un-check them:
Confirm Open after Download and Browse in same window
6. Click the OK button
7. Click the Apply button
8. Re-boot the PC
After I did this I was successfully able to get Excel to open from within Discoverer.
Best wishes

Problem opening excel file in new window

Hi,
I have a JSF application that sends an Excel file back to the user.
My backing bean has a method that uses POI to generate the excel file and then write it to the servlet response.
This works fine if I call the method from a command button, but this displays the file in the current browser window, whereas I want to open the file in a new window.
I added an onclick javascript call to a command button which does a window.open() to open a jsp in a new window. The jsp contains an empty view, as I'm using an on-load phase listener to make the call to my backing bean method which should send the excel file when the file opens.
However, when the window opens, I get an IE error message saying 'Could not open xxx.faces', and then an excel error message saying 'Could not open xxx.xls. This may be because the file does not exist, or the file is already open etc etc'
However, I found that if the popup window goes through a servlet (which just forwards to the jsp page) instead of going to the jsp directly, it works like a charm.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this would be very much appreciated. If I can't fix it I'll just stick with the servlet approach, although it just seems a bit messy.
(I'm using IE6 SP2, tomcat 5.5 btw)
Cheers,
Stuart

I'm doing a similar thing, but I use commandLink to lauch the window. CommandLink has the "target" attribute that I set to _blank. As you would expect, that opens up the page in the new window.

Problem in opening excel file in different window

hi
i want to open excel file in different window it open in same window properly on the bases of condition but when i try to open in different with window.open( )
it give error that file has already used or path not exist OR requisted site either unavailable
how can i rectified

Hi.
I am too facing the same problem. I am using Jakarta Poi to display my resultset in an excel sheet directly(and not into a jsp)
The browser opens a window showing Open Save Cancel. If i click and save the excel sheet and then open, it opens. But clicking on Open directly doesnt open the excel sheet. Rather it gives the same error
The file name or path name does not exist.
The file you are trying to open is being used by another progrtam . close the document in other program and try again
The name of the work book your tring to save is the same as name of another document that is readonly .try saving workbook with different name
Can somebody please help me fix this problem, since its an urgent requirement. Mail me at [email protected]

Error while opening excel file

Hi...
I m facing problem with excel file....when i used to open file its saying "file cannot be creating"
But when i try from my PC it is not showing any error...
Plz kindly suggest me any solution.
Regards
Meenakshi

Hi Meenakshi,
Please check following step in customization:
Use T code DC 30: go to work station application (1st tab) if you have already done with Excel then just check with following entries or make new entries as follows:
1) WS appliction : XLS (Name with your choice)
2) Archive identification : *
3) File suffix for appl : XLS
4)file format : *.xls,.xlsx*
Please note .xlsx is for new version i.e ms office 2007
5) MIME type: application/msexcel
Make check (tick mark) on start authorization, additional file and content version. and save.
In 2nd tab i.e. Define work station application in network-> New entries
w/s application: XLS
Data carrir type : PC (this to be done in DC 20)
application type: 1(display) 2 (edit)
Path with prog. name: %SAP-OFFICE-INTEGRATION.INPLACE%
For display %SAP-OFFICE-INTEGRATION.INPLACE% and for edit %SAP-OFFICE-INTEGRATION.OUTPLACE% , save. Now go to CV01n create DIR save. In CV02n i.e change mode attached the excel doc check in file save and try to open.
Hope this will solve your problem.

Cannot open Excel files on Windows share and ONLY Excel files

I'm browsing a Windows share and for whatever reason it will not let me open Excel files directly from the network location. If I view the Coverflow, I can see a a preview of the actual file as well as copy it to the desktop and open it.
I receive an error message that says "filename.xls could not be found."
I can open up any other file from the network location, but not Excel files.
I checked the file permissions and they mirror the other file types, it may be worth mentioning that I utilize network synchronization and view these files from a PC as well. I also noticed when I create a new file in that location, it will only appear in OS X and not Windows, but is still completely accessible.
Any help is appreciated!
Thanks

Spreadsheet app that opens Excel files?

I should have asked this in my last post about word processors in OS X. If I'm just a casual user who rarely needs to open Excel files (e.g. friends email me some spreadsheet about who knows what), should I just plan on using NeoOffice (OpenOffice), or is there some other option out there if I don't want to buy MS Office? It seems that iWork doesn't even come with a spreadsheet app. However, even if it did, I'm wondering if there'd be another alternative sufficient for a casual user like myself.
Mac OS X (10.4.6)

NeoOffice handles multiple sheets and has loaded my Excel files with no problems. I have not used NeoOffice extensively as I downloaded it to become familiar with what it can do, so I have not come up against its limitations yet. NeoOffice is a large program (338 mb on my external hard disk) which contains all the modules in one (rather than separate programs like Word, Excel and PowerPoint), so it takes a while to initially open but once open it switches between the modules with little delay.

Cannot open the file due to an unknown error. (FRM0007)

When open deski document in 3-tier mode, the following error is showed"
"Cannot open the file due to an unknown error. (FRM0007)"
-It happens for all deski documents
-It works ok when opening in 2-tier mode.
-It happens on some specific userID.
-It happens on tow computers
The following is log that may be helpful.

Hi Emily,
It seems to be windows profile related issue could you please try to delete the user preferences under the registries for which you are getting the issue for the particular users.
Note: The following resolution involves editing the registry. Using the Registry Editor incorrectly can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall the Microsoft Windows operating system. Use the Registry Editor at your own risk. It is strongly recommended that you make a backup copy of the registry files before you edit the registry.For information on how to edit the registry key, view the 'Changing Keys and Values' online Help topic in the Registry Editor (Regedit.exe).
1. Go to start programs->run->RegEdit.
2. Then go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER< Software< BusinessObjects<Suite 11.5<Business Objects.
3. Select the user preferences and delete the same.

Hello,
Perhaps this will help. Open an Excel file, select a sheet, range then set a value, save then close. The idea here is not to write or save but demo a few basic operations.
Also note 'as is' all memory is cleaned up without resorting to what many do, force the garbage collector. This is important if objects are not cleaned up it is very possible in extreme cases to bring a machine down so one should ensure all objects are cleaned
up which only comes from well written code be it C# or VB.NET

Can't open Excel files with Numbers

Hi,
I'm having troubles when I try to open Excel files with Numbers. The iWork program simply shuts down and a message appears, telling that a "sudden problem happened".
Can anyone help here? I really appreciate.
Rafinha

Hi Rafinh,
Welcome to Numbers discussions.
Numbers will open Excel documents. Sometimes deleting the Numbers Preference file will do the trick. Close Numbers then delete the Numbers preference file: home > Library > Preferences, com.apple.iWork.Numbers.plist
In the upper right of this window click Search thousands of questions have been asked and answered.
These Discussions are enduser helping enduser, not Apple employees answering questions. Questions will be answered when a enduser such as yourself finds time, desires to, knows the answer along with the time to respond.
Again, welcome to Numbers Discussions, have fun here.
Cordially,

Possible cause of "Cannot open Excel file error"?

Hi!
Here's my problem: one of our LabView applications creates .xls Excel
files. However some of these files are too big to be opened into
Excel, so we need to open these files in DIAdem to analyse the data (in
fact, even the smaller ones often need to be analysed in DIAdem).
The problem is that DIAdem seems totally unable to open Excel files,
small or big, created by our LabView application or not. The
error message appearing when we try to import Excel files is "Cannot
open Excel file"... which doesn't give any clue about the cause of the
error. My question is: what may cause this error to
occur? I searched both the help and the website without finding
useful information.
The computer is running on WinXP with OfficeXP installed, and we are
using DIAdem 9.0. If additionnal information is required, just
let me know.
Thanks in advance!
Maxime B.

Hi!
I did some experiments this morning. First of all, the file I had
created using Excel that I tried to open yesterday just opened. I
don't know why it didn't work yesterday, but, for now, it's
working. Now, for my LabView-created files, I still get the same
error message. However, if I open the files in Excel and try to
save, a warning message appears, saying that the file may not be
compatible with the text (separator:tabulation) format. If I
ignore the warning and save the file as a .xls file, I can now import
it into DIAdem. The problem is probably that my LabView-created
files are not "real" .xls files. Now, this is a problem, because
I can't open some of the bigger files in Excel without having the data
truncated (Excel has a maximum of 65536 rows); last year, using DIAdem
8.X (I don't remember the exact version we had), I could open those
files without any trouble... Is there any way to get those files to be
opened with DIAdem 9.0? I attached one of those files if it may help.
Thanks!
Maxime B.

I'm having a problem opening my files -..

I'm having a problem opening my files …..for example if i want to download something off the internet and run it after it always opens in Textedit which is annoying…..other programs open fine which are dmg but the exe files won't run….i need help

If you are in fact running Mac OS 9 or earlier, which is from 2001 or earlier, .dmg files are disk image files like the .smi files used under Mac OS 9, but they are only Mac OS X compatible. They are frequently used to store Mac OS X only installer disk image files. .exe files are are Windows and MS-DOS executable files which can only run with Windows or DOS virtualization:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-2741
Most Mac OS 9 programs you'll be able to download either have a .sea, .sit, or .hqx suffix in their file name and are able to be opened with the old Mac OS 9 copy of Stuffit Expander.
If you are using another operating system, please go to Apple menu -> About this Mac and tell us what you are running. You posted to the Mac OS 9 forum, hence my response. If there is an X in the name, you posted to the wrong forum, and I'll have this post redirected and try to answer if I have time.

How to list all currently open Excel files with ActiveX?

Hello all!
I would like to program with ActiveX a way to retrieve a list (array of strings) of the filenames of the currently opened Excel files in windows. However, I am fairly new to the ActiveX/Excel business in LV and after hours looking at the "millions" of objects in the property nodes I give up and hope some kind soul here can help me. I couldn't find any information in this forum regarding the same issue, although some were close
I am using LV 7.1 without the Report Generation Toolkit.
Thanks!
/Goran

Hi KC,
thanks for your reply. I have in fact been able to find the desired things in the ActiveX properties/methods for Excel in LabView. It took me some looong work going through the functions which I suspected to be the ones. Anyway, I post a little jpeg here of the code if someone ever needs the same functionality. What it does is that it checks how many Excel workbooks are open and controls if each of them matches the searched Excel filename, if one does, it is closed.
Enjoy
