Problems while displaying EXCEL sheets within OUTLOOK

Dear all,
I have the following problem: 
a user within the company receives sometimes emails containing excel sheets. the user wants to use/work with the preview within outlook, unfortunately the displayed values are different compared with the values if the sheet is opened with excel. 
Now I'd want to ask if you had such  a problem and also found a solution for that?
Best regards and thanks in advance
Oli

Hi Oli,
Does this only happen to these specific spreadsheets or all? Are these fixed manually entered value? Or references to other sources?
The previewers in Microsoft Outlook provide additional security against potentially harmful code to help protect you from malicious code,
active content embedded in attachments (including scripts, macros, and ActiveX controls) is disabled during a preview.
Thus, a preview might not show the most up-to-date content in the file. To see the most complete, up-to-date content, you need open the file in related Microsoft Office application.

  • Problem while creating Excel sheet from TSQL

    Hi,
    I am trying to create an excel sheet using tsql in production server, script is running without any error however when i am trying to open the excel file it is giving an error that may be the file is corrut or in used by some other process or is read
    only.
    Same script is running fine on test server and i am able to open it. i am having SYSADMIN rights on both the servers.
    i think there are some OLE DB driver issue.
    using TSQL (SP_OA.... procedures) to create the excel file.
    System information:
    OS: 64 bit; SQL Server 2005: 32 Bit; Office 2010: 32 Bit.
    Can any one help me?
    Thanks

    Might be a stretch but your situation looks like one I encountered earlier.  Are you running this in a SSIS?  Your office is 32 bits but your OS is 64 bits, when running a SSIS from the agent under a 64 bit system and accessing and access
    a 32 bit driver, you must check the option to "Use 32 bit runtime" under execution option.
    If this is not the case, I would look for an option to execute in 32 bit mode or see if there are available 64 bits drivers.

  • Problem with Protected Excel sheets through OLE

    Hi Friends
    We are facing the problem with the protected sheets in excel, when we are accessing worksheets via SAP.
    We can insert the values in the protected sheet and we can do other manupalations, but when we are trying to do the autofit for the protected sheet via SAP, then its throwing an error while making it as Visible in SAP ECC 6.0.
    Though it is valid, because even when we do in the excel itself, it wont allow the user to shrink the columns, but this one is possible in ECC 5.0  and we can make excel is visible on the screen.
    I would like to know is this SAP Version problem or anything else apart from this? and I would like to know is there anyway to unprotect and protect the sheet through ABAP program with out a password. Now my clients wants the autofit though its protected.
    Please give me any suggestions.
    Thanks
    Praveen

    its bug with ECC 5.0. If we want to make it auto fit we need to unprotect, then auto fit.
    Later we can protect again

    The problem here is, you have setted the content type as excel sheet and you are writing some String content into the output stream. when excel tries to read the String content it will surely throw some error. Lot of excel APIs are available in the market to generate excel sheets.
    you can find one in the below URL.

  • Problem while opening Excel through OLE

    Hi Friends
    I am facing a problem while opening an excel file through OLE. it is working fine in SAP ECC 5.0, but the problem is in ECC 6.0.
    I am adjusting the cells for auto fit. I have written the code like below.
    CALL METHOD OF e_appl 'CELLS' = e_cell.
      CALL METHOD OF e_cell 'EntireColumn' = ole_columns .
      CALL METHOD OF ole_columns 'AutoFit'.
      set property of e_appl 'VISIBLE' = 1.
    if I take out the adjustment part it is working fine for this program, rest other programs even if I have this code, they working fine.
    When I am executing the statement set property of e_appl 'VISIBLE' = 1. the return code is coming as 2.
    Could anybody please help me to overcome this problem.
    Thanks
    Praveen

    In ECC 6.0, if the worksheet is portedcted SAP unable to open that sheet, now we have taken out this option so it is working.

  • Installing Control Panel 2/3 causes problems in opening Excel sheets

    After installing the control panel 3.0, I can't open Excel sheets properly anymore. A message says that the Excel sheet contains corrupted data and Excel can try to restore them. After confirming this, the excel sheet shows opened but all formating is gone.
    I had this issue yet with Control Panel 2.0. After some research on the web I found out that the problem is caused by the CP for Windows. I then switched back to CP V 1.1.4 and the excel sheets opened properly again.
    Thanks for any advise. I'm using Windows 7 and Excel/Outlook 2007.

    You are downloading software illegally. ShapeShifter is shareware so unless you indicate that you paid for it I don't feel it is appropriate to post your issue in this forum setting.

  • Problem in downloading excel sheet

    Hi All,
    We have a WD Java application, where in one screen we are displaying a few records in a table. We also have a option to download and save the data in the form of a excel sheet on the click of a button.
    Now the problem is, the downloding to excel option is working fine if we use IE version 6.0. If we use teh same application in IE 8 just a empty window is opening.
    What can be the problem for this? Is there any settings that needs to be made in IE 8 or the problem is with the code?
    Regards.

    Hi Becky,
    I think browser version is an issue, may be the JAR file which you are using for excel work may be not compitable with the IE's version.
    Let me explore and will get back to you.
    Deepak!!!
    Pls find below comment from Armin from SAP:- you have to look for WD patch for this if sap has already released...:)

    IE8 will certainly be supported in the future as soon as the tests have been passed succesfully. Only those browsers/versions mentioned in the PAM are supported officially for the different Web Dynpro versions.

  • Error while sending excel sheet as attachment to Mail Receiver

    Hi everyone,
    I am facing the below error when I am trying to send data to Mail receiver adapter. The attachment is excel sheet.
    Delivery of the message to the application using connection Mail_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Object not found in lookup of MessageTransformBean.: com.sap.engine.services.jndi.persistent.exceptions.NameNotFoundException: Object not found in lookup of MessageTransformBean..
    I don't understand where the problem is. This has been running since long time and last month we have changed our web dispatcher details. I hope everything is fine. But not sure the root cause for this issue.
    Please help me in resolving this.
    Thank you.
    Regards

    Check if this helps: MessageTransformBean module
    Confirm that you have configured the MessagetransformationBean properly.
    Are you trying to convert some payload into Excel and send it as an attachment in the Mail CC? If yes, then I hope that you have included the correct Content_type value.

    Hi,
    M facing problem in displaying top of page in list .
    M using following methods:-

    lr_inner_grid TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_layout_grid,
    lr_label TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_label,
    lr_text TYPE REF TO cl_salv_form_text.
    For displaying the top of page m using event TOP_OF_PAGE.
      CREATE OBJECT lr_outer_grid.
    *Outer grid
      lr_inner_grid = lr_outer_grid->create_grid(
      row = 1
      column = 1 ).
    *... create lable information in inner_grid
    User ID
      lr_label = lr_inner_grid->create_label(
      row = 1
      column = 1
      text = text-h03 ).
    *... create text information in inner_grid

    I want that output should look like
    USERID      abcdefghjik
    PLANT        jhk to hjk

  • Problem while displaying UTF8 characters.

    Hi,
    I have a panel grid which is binding through one method.I generated two label component inside that panelgrid.
    I created HtmlOutputLabel.I'm seeting value setLabel() method.My problem is I'm setting UTF8 charecters inside.
    Example setLabel("G�te"); While displaying in browser this UTF8 character is not displaying properly.This setLabel method is getting one object as argument.I dont know how they r doing typecasing internally.
    CAn anyone tell what is the problem.How to rectify it?
    Thanks,
    Bosky

    response.setCharacterEncoding("utf-8");This makes sure that the response characters will be in utf-8.
    Also makes sure that you data that is being send is encoded as utf-8. Java stores data in utf-8 by default.

  • Oracle function to extract data into excel sheet within a script

    I have extracted data from a couple of tables onto a view. Basically I have got about 15 coloums in that view but i need to extract the data in the view into an Excel sheet.
    I just want to know if their is a function in oracle whereby i can export the data in the view onto an excel sheet, because this statements is going to be scripted and run every morning for the data to be processed.
    Oracle version: oracle 9i
    OS : Windows 2003

    If this is a one-off then IDEs such as TOAD typically
    let you export the results of a query in an
    appropriate format for Excel.Note:
    because this statements is going to be scripted and run
    every morning for the data to be processedSo that won't be feasible in this case, but it was a good point to make.
