You cannot use absolute path like 'C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\SHQuota.xls' inside an embeded content.If you want to open excel file inside embeded content then you have to put it on some web server and accesss it through proprt url like 'http:\\.........' .
One way is to put your excel sheet in OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics and then use the URL inside Embeded content
http://localhost:9704/analytics/SHQuota.xls. It will prompt you to open or save the file.It wont open the excel file in the same window.
If you want to open in the same window then embed your excel sheet into one html page and place that html page at
OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics path and access the html page by the url inside embeded content.
Thanks

  • Export to Excel – XLS file formatting

    Hi,
    I have created process that exports report to XLS file. I write XLS file using XML tags, supported by Excel, which allow me to format each cell (especially look and data type). Unfortunately I can’t force Excel to see cell as date-cell.
    I’m getting from database date in YYYY-MM-DD format and I want the same in Excel. I can export it as string value, but I want Excel to see it as date – not string.
    This code works fine:
    <ss:Cell><ss:Data ss:Type="String">'||x.begin_date||'</ss:Data></ss:Cell>
    but Excel see the cell as a string.
    I want something like that:
    <ss:Cell><ss:Data ss:Type="Date">'||x.prnm_short_name||'</ss:Data></ss:Cell>
    but this one doesn’t work, as well as “DateTime” type.
    Do you know how to solve this problem?

    Here is a sample of how you can create a procedure from an EXCEL file.
    1. create, format and save Excel file as an XML file
    2. edit file to add" htp.p(' " tags to begining of each line and "')';" tags to the end of the lines
    3. add standard header tags at start of file (see code below)
    4. add standard end tags at end of file (see code below)
    5. grant excute privileges as required
    6. test procedure: from browser (http://.../apex/owner.excel_rpt in this case; you do not need to use apex to do this
    - you might want to secure the procedure once you got it running by limiting it to run only from your app
    CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE excel_rpt (fname VARCHAR2 DEFAULT 'excel_rpt.xls')
    IS
    -- query to get data; can be used in CURSOR LOOOP to fill in report
    CURSOR rpt_cur IS
    SELECT PROGNAME, user_name, priv, dept
    FROM test_data;
    BEGIN
    -- standard header to open file in EXCEL application -- REQUIRED
    owa_util.mime_header( nvl(NULL,'application/octet'), FALSE );
    htp.p('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="' || fname || '"');
    owa_util.http_header_close;
    -- to get this, save your Excel file as XML, open in editor (I used Notepad++),
    -- prepend "htp.p(' to all the line", postpend "');" to all lines
    htp.p('<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>');

  • Putting 2 vob files onto 1 DVD -Please help

    I borrowed a handicam that burns to mini DVD, as mine broke. Usually I import files as DV on the mac from my camera and cut them together there.
    With this camera, I have two halves of a recital that I want to put onto 1 DVD. I saved the DOB files from each mini disc ont my Mac and I figured I would just put them both into iDVD or edit with iMovie and burn onto 1 DVD, but I cannot import or use DOB files with them. I also have Final Cut Express, but again - no DOB files. iMovie won't take them.
    I tried converting the files with VLC or MPEG Stream on a PC but the audio and video don't sync.
    All I want to do is put both VOB files on a DVD that will play in a DVD player.
    Please help me! I am extremely frustrated and under a deadline...

    Make your sequences, export out as DV AVI files, bring them into Encore and author as usual.

  • JSP results on excel (.xls)  file

    Hi all,
    I want to have a link on a jsp file which would display the contents of the .jsp on an (.xls) file
    I know some webpages allow this like yahoo finance does.
    Can anyone please help me with this and let me know how to approach it .
    Thanks in advance,
    Peter

    ....it's all about the content-type...
    I'm going to bet that you haven't written an xls generator in Java... so we'll go with the next best option.... by default excel is associated with csv, so you can look at whatever mime type is assigned to csv and hopefully Excel will be used to open it.. a quick search reveals: "application/vnd.ms-excel" as the mimetype.

  • Opening Excel XLS files in Numbers

    I have Mac OS 10.6.2 on my MacBook using Numbers '09.
    A windows excel pc user sent a xls file.
    When I try to open this file on my MacBook with Numbers is get message
    "The document is encrypted and can’t be opened."
    The windows user says the file is not locked/protected/encrypted ...
    I have opened other xls files ok.

    I never got this behaviour (but my correspondants know that I hate …Soft products).
    Maybe it's that the file was built by a recent version of XL which is not deciphered by Numbers.

  • Can't put ripped DVD files onto iPod

    I've ripped a couple of 1.5hr video files to MPEG4 format using Xilisoft's DVD to iPod software (very good by the way) but I can't get these files onto my iPod (I've checked them in Quicktime and they look fine).
    I've tried importing into the library then manually dragging and dropping, but they just won't copy (I don't get any warning message either). Syncing doesn't work either.
    Anyone got any ideas?

    What exactly happnes when you try to sync?
    Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
    Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
    Do the songs play in iTunes?
    Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

  • Some Excel (.xls) files won't open

    Hi,
    I have Microsoft 2004 for Mac.
    I found much to my dismay that two important Excel files on my computer won't open. When I double click on them, the normal loading window shows very briefly (the window says: Opening XXX.xls; Press Command + to Cancel), and then nothing happens - the file is not open. Double clicking it again produces the same results. I tried to open the files from the File-Open menu. It did not work.
    All the other Excel files on my computer open normally (well I did not check every one of them; but for those which I did check anyway). The two problematic files are in the same folder.
    The latest updates for Microsoft 2004 have been installed.
    There is no special setting for the two files in question (like permission settings).
    I tried to move the files to a different location of my computer and opened them from there - did not work.
    There is nothing wrong with the file naming.
    And when I sent the problematic files to my own gmail and tried to open the files from gmail (click view on the attachment file), I was able to open the files successfully from there.
    Any ideas as to what is happening, and how to fix the problem?
    Thank you very much!

    Ok, I figured it out. Contrary to what I stated in the post, the software is not up to date. So I proceeded to update the software and the problem went away. The problematic files now can be opened.

  • How to put music library files onto new iPhone 6 with iTunes

    I set up my new iPhone 6 on my Macbook Pro for backup to the cloud using wi fi. I also set it up as a phone, not as an ipod. But when I synced the phone, no music library files copied onto the phone, which has 128 gigs, only reference graphics showing an iCloud icon, so I have to play everything by streaming from a hotspot or using cellular data.  How do I just put the music library on the phone?

    Thanks!  Fascinating, but playing the very same files for the first time through my car's stereo system, the volume required was much lower and the sound was much better. I think the old 4s must have been deteriorating, or the new 6 is far more powerful and better.

  • How do I import the data from Excel (.xls) file into Oracle Database table

    You can connect to Oracle from Excel directly. I know you can read data but am not sure if you can export data.
    Other option is to import the data into Access.
    Create an ODBC connection for Oracle

    I received an Excel file with images that need editing in Photoshop.  This is the only file type in which I have these images (no .jpg, or .png).  How can I Import them into PS CC? 

    Open the Excel file
    Save it as a web page (*.htm ,*.html) (save as type: in save as... under file) in a folder say "My Documents",

  • How can I put seperate score files onto one page in the Layout?

    I have written some exercises in different keys. They are small files. Each of them are saved individually and cover only part of a page each but I want to lay them out on one single page. I can't work out how. Each file is in a different key. As a short term solution I tried to combine them into one file and then could not work out how to change the key signature. When I insert the #'s and b's the following notes don't move to the right. So that does not work the way I do it. Does someone have a solution, please?
    Cheers,
    ansu

    Thank You, musicspirit, for your support. What you suggested I had done already, but it did not work always only sometimes. ( Like a disfunctional light switch). Maybe I missed some setting or whatever or tried too many things...or..Anyway quite a few things didn't work, I spare you the details. Meanwhile I did disk maintenance and tossed out the files and started again from scratch ( which I wanted to avoid) and everything worked out fine so far. No problems with clef change, etc.
    But to make it look as if I had three songs or three separate exercises on one page I need to create a bigger space between the 3rd and 4th staves and the 6th and 7th staves. I can do this only globally, which means I manage only to increase the space between all the staves. (I hope I am not asking the wrong thing again. Manuals are not always easy for the novice.)
