Problem with number-fields in csv-Export-Files

Hello,
the export with the csv option works fine and our users like this export-function.
But Unfortunatelly we have some problems with the exported number fields. In my region I defined the field with a format mask.
On the screen it looks fine but when I change to csv the values are exported as text-values.
So in excel the columns are shown with left alignment.
When I try to change the format in excel to number, excel change the column type but not the value inside.
On this account we cannot use the sum-function and the display of the value is wrong (alignment).
Which possibilities do I have to resolve that problem?
Thanks in advance

I have the same issue - Anyone any ideas on how to export currency values in a report to excel as numbers?

Problem with number field

Hi,
I'm using ADO (Oracle Provider for OLEDB) to connect Oracle 9. If the type of any field in table is Number(9) and I open query with this field, all negative values are displayed as positive values. For example: If I write -1 value to this field and then post the dataSet (Delphi7 - TADOQuery) value is refreshed to 1. Real value in database is -1.
Could anybody help me with this problem?
Regards Jan.

Once again :)
I finally foud out that Deplhi does support (varDecimal), but delphi TCustomADODataSet (ADO recordSet wrapper) component incorrecltly treats such field type. It regards Decimal(<9,0) as integer (TIntegerField) but when it gets value from underlying ADO recordset it expects integer variant. So it's delphi problem. I hat to fix this problem in source code of this component.

Problem with number fields using ASP

Hello all,
I am running IIS 5.0 on Windows 2000 SP 2. I have Oracle 8.1.5 installed on this machine. I am currently only using the sample database that with Oracle. When I run a simple select statement from the ASP page, I see everything correctly, except the number fields. In SQL Plus, the same query works fine. The query only has three types of fields --> varchar, date and number. Varchar and date fields show up fine but the number doesnt. It shows up as 0. I am giving the code I used below. Please let me know if I am missing something or if there is a bug that needs to be patched. If it is a bug, then please let me know where I can find the patch for it.
Thanks a lot,

Hi all:
It seems like the above mentioned case is a bug. Supposedly it has been fixed in newer versions of Oracle but I am not sure about it as I dont have the time or resources to test and find out. But here is the fix for it in 8.1.5.
It seems only the fields that have a size defined along with the number field dont show up properly. If you leave the number field as it is (without specifying the size), then it seems to work fine.
Thanks a lot for all your help,

Problem with number-fields in PDF Output Using FOP

When generating PDF Output using FOP as described in the utilitiy provided in the HTMLDB Studio http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=18326:44:12104450162492733947::::P44_ID:1522
formatted numbers over 1,000 are resolved as characters (because of the comma) and are therefore right justified. This results in alignment issues for numeric columns.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to work around this.
Thanks,
David

Hello,
Your probably going to have to edit the xslt to get the result either by stripping out the comma or by setting that column to explicitly align the way you want it.

Problem with a field set to refresh after insert at Row level

hello all,
i have a problem with a field (a serial) which is set by a db trigger at insertion. The field "refresh after insert" is properly set in the Entity and everything is refreshed correctly when i insert data via an adf form in a jspx but when i want to insert programmatically nothing is refreshed. I insert data this way :
ViewObject insertVO = findViewObject("myView");
Row newRow = insertVO.createRow();
newRow.setAttribute("mandatoryAttribute1",value1);
newRow.setAttribute("mandatoryAttribute2",value2);
<more init here but not the serial since it will be set by the DB trigger>
insertVO.insertRow(newRow);
but when i want to get back the value with "newRow().getAttribute("TheSerial");" i always get a null back and not the value set by the db trigger.
One way to get the serial is to commit after each insert but i don't want to commit between inserts.
i've tried to unset the refresh after insert and override the createDef() method to setUseReturningClause(false) as it's is advised in chapter 26.5 of the ADF 4GL dev. guide but in this case i have an exception JBO-29000: JBO-26041.
How can i get the value back properly ?
thanks
-regards

The data for the newly created row doesn't get inserted into the database until the commit is executed, so the insert trigger isn't called.
If you need to get the value without committing, then you should implement the trigger programmatically and drop the trigger from the database. The code below shows how you could do this.
ViewObject insertVO = findViewObject("myView");
Row newRow = insertVO.createRow();
SequenceImpl seq = new SequenceImpl("MY_SEQ", insertVO.getDBTransaction());
Long next = (Long)seq.getData();
newRow.setAttribute("primaryAttribute", new Number(next));
...You will need to replace MY_SEQ and primaryAttribute with the correct values for your example, but this should acheive what you want.

Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"

Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"
The files are not corrupt. The problem is occurring with all DMGs that are apparently formatted in MS-DOS FAT16. No the file will not mount with Disk utility or any other disk mounter programs I have found.
This is now the second time this occurred and now effects my MBP and my iMac. First time i spent days with Apple support and the only solution was ultimately back up the data, reformat the HD, start over from scratch and reload everything. That lasted about a month before the problem resurfaced and is now an issue on both iMac and MBP.
I tried to identify all the programs I installed immediately before the error, as I am convinced it is the result of a software conflict.
Recent programs includes:
1) upgrading from Parallels 5.5 to 6.0 on both machines.
2) using an HP secure II usb drive and setting up a secure disk.
3) installing new itunes 10
4) new update to Flip For Mac.
The files affected are downloaded dmgs, including personal brain and google earth, both which are formatted in FAT16.
Any help or thoughts? Apple has now spent hours trying and they say i now have to reformat and wipe and start over. That is unacceptable and based on pasted experience the problem is likely to repeat itself. having to wipe and rebuild a HD ever month is not an solution. i need to fid the root problem.
In the meantime, anyone got a real solution on how to extract the data for a DMG using a different method?
Message was edited by: remaia

Where you able to find the solution, i am having the same problem, all was fine till i install some programs only same one i saw did we both did was flip4mac i uninstalled it but the problem is still there, i also restored and erased the hardrive but im not up to doing that all over again. If you found anything out let me know i would greatly appreciate it

Problem with the EFI system partition's file system.

I installed latest yosemite 10.10.2 update - did a verify disk on “WDC WD1001FALS-403AA0 Media” (internal HD on my iMac 21.5-inch, Mid 2011) and got
Problems were found with the partition map which might prevent booting
Error: The partition map needs to be repaired because there’s a problem with the EFI system partition’s file system.
However a verify disk on the volume partition gets a clean bill of health!
I haven't done a 'repair disk' yet. Thought I'd check if anybody else has same message first.
Cheers

I had issues where my MacPro 8-core would not boot after the 10.7.4 upgrade, but my MacBook Air 13" 2011 upgrade worked just fine.
I had to restore my MacPro HD from my TimeMachine back up. Apparently, the Softraid raid drivers that I use on my MacPro are not compatible yet with 10.7.4. See here for more info:
http://macperformanceguide.com/blog/2012/20120511_1-MacOSX-SoftRAID.html
I contacted Softraid and they are already aware of the issues and are working with Apple for a fix.

MacBookPro SSD Error- ALERT: The partition map needs to be repaired because there's a problem with the EFI system partition's file system.

MacBook Pro OS x Mavericks. I have Sandisk 256GB SSD and I am getting a below error message.

Does anyone know how to resolve this error and fix it ? unfortunately I don't have a Time Machine backup. Thanks!

Have you tried to run the verify/repair permissions and verify/repair disk through the recovery disk? If that didn't work then I would reinstall the OS after backing up. If that still doesn't work I would take it in.

Problem with FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE in deleting a file on server.

Hi All,
My Task is to delete a file with version number 6 and rename all other files, so that my new file will be version 0.
Am using the FM SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE to delete/rename a file on server.
Though, this is working fine in debugging mode I can see the file getting deleted in regular run, which is followed by renaming some files, it is NOT working in regular run.
Somehow the deletion and renaming are not happening correctly in regular run, but does happen successfully while in debugging.
Am I missing anything or any refresh or delay needed?
Here is my code for DELETE :
CONCATENATE P_PATH '\' P_TABNAME '_6.dat' INTO LF_FILE.
CONDENSE LF_FILE NO-GAPS.
*// Check if this file exists
OPEN DATASET LF_FILE FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.

Hi All,
Problem resolved.
We need ensure all files which are opened [by OPEN DATASET], are CLOSED before trying any operation like DELETE or RENAME on the files.

Client Having Problems With Acrobat 11.0.3 and files created in earlier versions

We are noticing problems with our PDF's depending on the version of Adobe they are viewed with.
If the PDF File was created pre 11.0.3 and you view it with 11.0.3 you only see squares in the narratives from SQL/Oracle Text Fields .
If the PDF File was created with 11.0.3 and you view it with 11.0.3, it is fine.
Update. As with most Software/Support services the correct information is not always received and must be forced out of the Customers.
The PDF files are drawing of Auto Accidents created in Adobe Acrobat and stored on a Microsoft Server Network. The files are then merged inside a Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9.0 SP2 Application with Data received from Microfoft SQL Server 2005 Database through a ODBC driver to a FoxPro Cursor and then created with a Visual FoxPro Report Form. The VFP Report form page that displaies/prints the PDF file is a OLE File Object and is created / Printed through Amyuni 4.5xx Converter to a PDF file and then viewed with Adobe Acrobat 11.0.3.

There are software packages that will do those checks. So in that sense there is a way to check. However, that would be a programming task and not necessarily simple. So I really can't help you on the programming aspect (I would refer you to something like the SDK forum for programming).
To check the file, you would normally open the document properties (ctrl-D). The general tab provides the version number and the fonts tab will tell you what fonts are used and embedded.

BUG?? UTF-8 non-Latin database chars in IR csv export file not export right

Hello,
i have this issue: my database character set is UTF-8 (AL32UTF8) and contains data in a table used in IR that are Greek (non-Latin). While i can see them displayed correctly in IR and also via select / in Object Browser in SQL Workshop when i try to Download as csv the produced csv does not have the Greek characters exported correctly, while the Latin ones are ok.
This problem is the same if i try IE or Firefox. Also the export in HTML works successfully and i see the Greek characters there correctly!
Is there any issue with UTF-8 and non-Latin characters in export to csv from IRs ? Can someone confirm this, or has a similar export problem with UTF-8 DB and non-Latin characters ?
How could i solve this issue ?
TIA

Hello Joel,
thanks for taking the time to answer to my Issue. Well this does not work for my case as the source of data (Database character set) is UTF-8. The Data inside the database that are shown in the IR on the Screen is UTF-8 and this is done correctly. You can see this in my example. The actual Data in the Database are from multiple languages, English, Greek, German, Bulgarian etc that's why i selected the UTF-8 character set when implementing the Database and this requirement was for all character data. Also the suggested character set from Oracle is Unicode when you create a Database and you have to support data from multiple languages.
What is the requirement, is that what i see in the IR (i mean in Display) i need to export in CSV file correctly and this is what i expect from the Download as CSV feature to achieve. I understand that you had in mind Excel when implementing this feature but a CSV is just an easy way to export the Data - a Comma Separated Values file, not necessarily to open them directly in Excel. Also i want to add here that in Excel you can import the Data in UTF-8 encoding when importing from CSV, which is fine for my customer. Also Excel 2008 and later understands a UTF-8 CSV file if you have placed the UTF-8 BOM character at the start of the file (well, it drops you to the wizzard, but it's almost the same as importing).
Since the feature you describe and if i understood correctly is creating always an ANSI encoded file in every case, even when the Database character set is UTF-8, it is impossible to export correctly if i have data that are neither in Latin, not in the other 128 country specific characters i choose in Globalization attributes and these data is that i see in Display and need to export to CSV. I believe that this feature in case the Database character set is UTF-8 should create a CSV file that is UTF-8 encoded and export correctly what i see i the screen and i suspect that others would also expect this behaviour. Or at least you can allow/implement(?) this behaviour when Automatic CSV encoding is set to No. But i stongly believe - and especially from the eyes of a user - to have different things in screen and in the depicted CSV file is a bug, not a feature.
I would like to have comments on this from other people here too.

Problems with JPGs that have been exported from InDesign

I have used InDesign CS4 for years and recently been upgraded to the Creative Cloud package, I have gone from a PC to a MAC as well.
The problem seems to be when I export a document in InDesign to a JPG file, when I try and use the JPG in other applications such as Powerpoint (for the Mac), the jpg isn't highlighted as an option to insert...like it hasn't been recognised.
I also recently had a problem uploading some jpg photos I had edited and exported to jpg and tried to upload to Snapfish and although I have done this many times before, it said my jpg file was corrupt.
No virus, or anything like that.
Does anyone know whether you can tweak the 'export' settings for indesign, I wondered if it was a compatibility issue?
Anyone help me?
Thanks

Well of course, there are the settings in InDesign's JPEG Export dialog, but there, all you can really do is make sure you're writing a "baseline" JPG in RGB mode. (Disclaimer: I haven't seen the 'CC' dialog, so there may be more about which I'm unaware.)
...when I try and use the JPG in other applications such as Powerpoint (for the Mac), the jpg isn't highlighted as an option to insert...like it hasn't been recognised.
That sounds like it could be a Microsoft Office issue. Can you insert a JPG that isn't the product of InDesign export? This is also why I mentioned RGB. I've seen Office apps choke on or ignore CMYK JPG's.
The number of posts in this forum on the subject of InDesign's JPEG export is unsettling to me. I truly believe it's a case of "Just because you can doesn't mean you should." Maybe I was "raised differently," figuratively speaking, but it would have never occurred to me to develop a workflow around the regular/routine export of raster images from my page layout application. If JPEG is my intended output, InDesign is the last application I'd reach for, perhaps unless I had a rare and specific need of a raster image depicting an InDesign-originated page layout. But even then, chances are I'd export from InDesign to PDF, then rasterize that by opening in Photoshop. If you need full control over raster image output, Photoshop is the much better bet.
