Programmatically read .rpt file, datasource and write it to word using ..

I am using Crystal Reports 2008. The default editable rtf export format is tab based, really not useful for table formatted data.
I would like to read rpt file along with data (e.g. saved xml source data) and write it to ms word format using com objects. Is this possible? If yes and supporting tutorial or information.
2nd: Is there any available ready software/tool to a true word format conversion?
Thanks in advance.

Above will apply to your version of CR and .NET also.
Is there any available ready software/tool to a true word format conversion?

Read data from Excel and write into oracle database

Hi
I want to know how can i read data from excel and write into oracle database using java.Kindly help me out to find a solution.
Thanks and Regards
Neeta

Hai,
I am suggesting the solution.
I will try out and let u know soon.
Make a coma separated file from your excel file.
Assuming that your requirement allows to make a csv file.
This file may be passed as an file object to be read by java.Using JDBC you must be able to populate the data base.You can also use String Tokenizer if needed.
You do not want to go via sql Loader?
For reading the excel file itself do you want java?

Need to read text file content and have to display it in multiline text box

dear all,
Need to read text file content and have to display it in multiline text box.
actually im new to file handling. i have tried up to get_line and put_line.
in_file := TEXT_IO.FOPEN ('D:\SAMPLE.txt', 'r');
TEXT_IO.GET_LINE (in_file,linebuf);
i dont know how to assign this get_line function to text item
pls help me in this regards,

Simply write:
in_file := TEXT_IO.FOPEN ('D:\SAMPLE.txt', 'r');
TEXT_IO.GET_LINE (in_file,linebuf);
:block2.t1 := chr(10)||:block2.t1||chr(10)||linebuf;
chr(10) --> is for new line character

Read PDF Formatted Spool and write PDF File to Application Server

Hi Experts,
After ECC 6.0, HR-W2 and W2C Form Spools are getting generated in PDF format.
We have a requirement wherein we want to read the PDF Spool Programatically and write the PDF file to Application server (Using OPEN DATASET and CLOSE DATASET)
PARAMETERS : p_spono LIKE tsp01-rqident.
DATA: pdf_data type FPCONTENT.
types: lt_pdf_table(1000) type x.
data: l_pdf_data type standard table of lt_pdf_table,
       l_pdf_line type lt_pdf_table,
       l_offset type i,
       l_len type i,

*Read the spool content
CALL FUNCTION 'FPCOMP_CREATE_PDF_FROM_SPOOL'
    EXPORTING
         i_spoolid = p_spono
         i_partnum = '1'
    IMPORTING
           e_pdf = pdf_data

    OTHERS = 5.
* Modify the spool contents to prepare internal table
l_len = xstrlen( pdf_data ).
while l_len >= 1000.
    l_pdf_line = pdf_data+l_offset(1000).
    append l_pdf_line to l_pdf_data.
    add 1000 to l_offset.
    subtract 1000 from l_len.
endwhile.
if l_len > 0.
    l_pdf_line = pdf_data+l_offset(l_len).
    append l_pdf_line to l_pdf_data.
endif.

ENDIF.
Currently as you can see I have commented out GUI_DOWNLOAD Function Module, But it works perfect when I try to Download file to Local Desktop.
But when I try to pass the same Contents to Application server file and then try to open it by downloading file then it opens BLANK pdf file.
As per requirements I should be able to write the file correctly on Application server and If I dowload it from there it should open PDF file correctly.
Let me know if you require further details about the issue.

Shital

Reading text file, Replace string, Write to new file....

I'm kind a lost of on this problem. Using the BufferedReader class and BufferedWriter class, develop an application that reads lines of text from a file. Replace any occurrence of the word *?the?* with *?JAVAJAVA?* and change all characters to upper case before writing each line to a different text file named outfile.txt. Finally, have your application use the appropriate method on the File class to return the absolute path of the outfile.txt file and output the path to the screen.

UDF to read a file name and use some of its contents to map fields in target.

I have a scenario where I need to take the month and year from the file name and map it to suitable fields in the target. Ex - filename_apr2014 from this i should be able to read the month and year and map it. How to do this? I tried the udf -
public String getFileName(Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
got this error while testing the mapping -
Runtime exception when processing target-field mapping /ns0:MT_<<>>_Output/I<<>>; root message: Exception:[java.lang.NullPointerException: while trying to invoke the method com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfiguration.get(com.sap.aii.mapping.api.DynamicConfigurationKey) of a null object loaded from a local variable at slot 2] in class <<>> method getSourceFileName[com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf7.rt.Context@5b04fc0f]
See error logs for details

Hi Satish - You declared "conf" twice.
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
UDF -
String filename = "";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
filename = conf.get(key);
return filename;
And did you define the variable slot 2 in any of your UDF's?
The above UDF return the filename and you should handle the sub string later..

Read a file content and copy to another Diectory

I wanted to do the following
1-read a file from dir
2- read the content of the file
3- if the file contains zeros
exit from this file and go to read next file
else
do some calculations
i read a file and its contents and found zeros in the contents, so how can i say in the code to go to next file..
any help please

It depends on your code, but most likely using "return":
//pseudo code
while(moreFiles) {
parseFile(file)
void parseFile(File file) {
while(moreContentToRead) {
if(foundZero) {
return;
}

Read from Oracle DB and Write to MySQL

Hi All,
I am fairly new to database administration, so please bear with me if this is something that is simple or not achievable at all -
SetUp:
I have an Oracle DB on one dedicated Server, to which I only have a read_only access.
I have a MySQL database setup on a windows server 2008, both are on the company network and accessible to internal employees only.
Problem Statement:
I need to read certain tables from Oracle DB and push the records to MySQL database.
I have a stored procedure which was doing this but from one Oracle Schema to another, which is running fine, now I need to use the same stored procedure but read from one database (Oracle) and write to another database (MySQL), is there a way to do this through the stored procedure, I know I can write a java program to do this, but need to do it through a stored procedure.
Appreciate any help in this regards.

Read blob 's data and write them to a table

I've managed at last to upload a blob to a table database (thanks to KUBA's)
Now I want to retrieve the blob from the database table , read it's contents and insert them to a new table. I want to do this after the upload process finishes...
the blob is always a txt file similar to this
GR;Greece
CY;Cyprus
Because I am a bit lost any guidelines would be very helpfull
thanks

Hi user571628. A couple of days ago I was working on the same thing, I couldn't finish the app. 'cause I was assigned to do other web app., I used the same example as you to upload the image to the DB and someone called "gnewtonaus" came up with what appears to be an excellent idea to do it, you have to use something called PL/SQL web toolkit (I have never used it and don't know how it works)... but this is what you have to do:
You've already solved the upload part so to download the BLOB (say an image in his example) you can use a simple PL/SQL stored procedure like the one below
E.g to display an image (from the DB) on an HTML page you just use

-- Display a photo from the database
procedure display_photo(i_person_id in varchar2) is
v_blob blob;
begin
-- retrieve blob from database
select image into v_blob from pho_photos where person_id = i_person_id;
-- set http headers
owa_util.mime_header('image/jpeg', FALSE);
htp.p('Content-Length: ' || dbms_lob.getlength(v_blob));
owa_util.http_header_close;
-- initiate direct BLOB download
wpg_docload.download_file(v_blob);
exception
when others then
htp.p(to_char(sqlcode)||' - '||sqlerrm) ;
end; -- display_photo

If you get it running please post how you did it, bacause I'll have to come back and do it myself.

Rpt file storage and deployment

Hello all-
I have a few questions I'm hoping someone can answer.
Currently we deploy an application with around 1100 reports. Due to customer security the report must be stored locally by them on their server with no outside access. Due to this we currently ship them new and updated reports which are stored in a standard \reports folder. One of the problems with this is the integrity of the rpt file itself. Storage of the reports in this manner allows the users to open the reports (if they have CR installed) and make changes which then are manifested when ran within the application.
I would like to store / deploy the reports in a different manner but I don't know that much about it and I am not sure what methodology would work the best.
Being that out data is stored in a SQL server can rpt files be stored in a SQL table (like a blob?) If so if it easy to call the reports from the table?
Can you store rpt files in DLLs?
I know we could assemble the reports inside the application itself but that would require a release when one off report changes take place.
Am I barking up the wrong tree here or if what I am thinking about possible?
Thanks a lot for any and all responses!
Rob

Hi,
What version are you using crystal report .rpt? Thats why new crystal report are now integrated for security purposes so that .rpt files cannot be shown. For my experience you cant but you can still store the reports in a folder that they cant open the file. Do not install the whole package of the CR but instead just register the DLL so that it can be recognized by the OS.

2) I have problems with pacman -S it says " Unable to lock database if you're sure pacman is not already running you can remove /tmp/pacman.lck"
when i do rm /tmp/pacman.lck it says that it can't be done cause the file doesn't exist.. and Im sure that my dhcp and dns is working fine... (just in case of any wonder)

Reading a file in and storing it as a string

I need help with reading the contents of a .txt file in and saving the whole thing (including format) as a string so that I can then use a while loop to go through one character at a time. I know that there is an incredibly easy way to do this iI just can't think of it right now. Thanks.

I am really bad with processing files. I don't know
how to do what I want. I get null when I do this:
while ((text = in.readLine()) != null) {
text += in.readLine();
System.out.println(text);
while ((text = in.readLine()) != null) {
do something with text, but DON'T call readline again
maybe just System.out.prinln(text); for now to make sure you're getting something
} If you never get into the body of the loop, then the file is empty.

Programmatically reading .indd files.

Hey everyone,
I've been trying to get this right, but after having called with Adobe support and sales, I've turned to the community. My situation is like so: I need to read .indd files (in that format, no .idml) to read the XMP data that's embedded within. My environment is a 64-bit Linux server with Debian 7 running, with Ruby as the language of choice for the project. Any language is OK as long as it runs on this platform. I know, however, that the Adobe InDesign license strictly prohibits reading data explicitly from .indd files and encourages use of ExtendScript. Adobe InDesign Server is a possibility, but the price is too high for our purposes.
What would you recommend?

Instead, I was looking for a viewer of these files so that I can view them on any computer. Now, do you understand?
Thanks
Bye
