Random excel files appeared on my desktop, and I can't put them in the trash. How do I delete them?

Reboot and see if they go away.

They appear as mounted DMG files.If you right click on them mdo they have an Eject entry?
Have you set the OS to Show All Files with a terminal command? If so take that off for now.
Look in your Home folder (Users/UserName) and then the Desktop subfolder under it. Do you see all these files/folders/drives?

Viewing Excel Files using Tomcat - Problem with caching

Hi all,
A small part of an application I'm writing has links to Excel files for users to view/download. I'm currently using Tomcat v5 as the web/app server and have some very simple code (an example is shown below) which calls the excel file.
<%@ page contentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel" %>
<%
response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
response.sendRedirect("file1.xls");
%>
This all works except but I'm having one big problem.
The xls file (file1.xls) is updated via a share on the server so each month, the xls file is overwritten with the same name but with different contents. I'm finding that when an update is made to the xls file and the user then attempts to view the new file in the browser they recieve only the old xls file. It's caching the xls file and I don't want it to. How can I fix this so that it automatically gives the user the new updated file.
The only way I've managed to get Tomcat to do this is to delete the work directory and delete the file from my IE temp folder and then restart Tomcat - this is a bit much!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

I'd a problem with caching a few years back, for a servlet request which returned an SVG file.
As a workaround, I ended up putting appending "#" and a timestamp / random number after it. The browser assuming each request was new, and didn't use the cache.
Eg.
http://myserver/returnSVG.do#1234567
where 1234567 is a timestamp / random.
Not sure whether you can do this on a file based URL... but maybe worth a shot...

Owen

How to save data (DBL array) in a excel file

Ok, I am new into Labview. This question may seem easy for you guys, but for me, it is quite a challenge. I have current coming out of a loop. When the program stop, I would like to be able to save it as well as the time when it has been taking and the average current in a excel file. When my labview code stops, how do I do to get a pop up window which ask me where and what name to save it to? How do I get so that on the top of each column, it says : current (Amp) Time (ms) Average Current (amp)?
thank you very much,

Hello,
We love to see people catch the LabVIEW spirit and anything we can do to help
you through the initial learning process is our pleasure.
As KC suggested saving the file as a .csv is a good idea,
you can also save it as a txt file and open it with Excel specifying a delimiter
for the columns.
There is a really good example you can find in the LabVIEW
example finder if you search for the keyword ‘file’, the example is called “Write
to Text File.vi”. They use a Get date/time String to record the time when data
is acquired.
I have attached a simple Write to File picture of a VI that
takes a random number and writes it to a file. When I run the VI, a popup asks
me what I want to call the file. The first part writes the heathers on the
columns and inside of the for loop I save the data. Underneath the block diagram
is a picture of the output file when I specify the number of samples to be five.
If you want your file to be on a very specific format, you
can create a template file, read it in LabVIEW, and then add your data to it
and save it to a new file.
Hope this can get you started with your program.
There are a lot of good tutorials online on how to
get started using LabVIEW. Here is the link to a three hour
introduction course:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/learningcenter.nsf/03f7c60f17aad210862567a90054a26c/60c2782788a811c986256cd50001a0a6?OpenDocument&node=200067_us
We are also comming out with LabVIEW 8 in November and we have a program called LabVIEW Standard Service Program
(SSP) that allows you to get automatic upgrades and updates. Please let
me know if you are interested in knowing more about it.
Good luck,

Writing Trace Info to and Opening an Excel File on command

I am currently using a Read Traces (numeric) vi to collect values from Tags and output them to a XY Graph. Alongside the graph on my front panel, I would like a boolean control to command (when true) LV to write the data to a spreadsheet and open that spreadsheet so it appears on screen, ready for the user to view and then save the excel file where he/she would like.
Is this possible? I am a little unsure what File I/O functions I need in order to achieve this? I have tried using the "Write Traces to Spreadsheet vi" available in the DSC module, but haven’t had much success. I have attached my code to show you how far I have got.
Any help with this problem will be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Stuart Wilson

Writing Trace Info to Excel File.vi ‏77 KB

Hi Stuart,
I have written an example piece of code for you which has the basic functionaliy that you want.
The example plots random data to a chart. When the boolean is pressed this data is written to a spread sheet file and Excel is opened to display this data.
As it is a generic solution you need to replace certain items when you incorporate the structure into your code: Instead of writting the history data of a chart you can use the "write traces to spreadsheet.vi" to write the data. The automation of excel can then be used in the same way as in the example.
There is also an example available in the "LabVIEW Example finder" called "Write Table to XL.vi". This example takes the data from a table and cell by cell inserts it into an excel speadsheet. Which the operator can then save from within excel. However, this method is not the most efficient way to get data into Excel.
I hope this is helpful.

"File Now Available" when opening Excel File

When I open an excel file from using the OpenFileDialog VB, there is a bit of a delay. After a few seconds a dialog box pops up saying:
"File Now Available"
This has two buttons "Read-Write" and "Cancel"
1) How do turn the alerts off and have it default to Read Write?
2) The delay in opening can cause issues as the user will not know that there is in fact a delay. The user may then proceed through my form and press the OK button which will cause an error. How do I show a status bar to alert the user that there is some Excel process running in the background (i.e. slowling opening the file) when using the OpenFileDialog? Worse case scenario I can set the enable property of the OK button to False until the file is open.
Thanks
EM

Two thougths -
Use this:
Private Function IsFileOpen(strFullFilePath As String) As Boolean
'http://www.xcelfiles.com/IsFileOpen.html
'Check if File is Open. Works for Excel files, but not text files.
    Dim hdlFile As Long
    'Error is generated if you try opening a File for ReadWrite lock >> MUST BE OPEN!
    On Error GoTo errsub:
    hdlFile = FreeFile
    Open strFullFilePath For Random Access Read Write Lock Read Write As hdlFile
    IsFileOpen = False
    Close hdlFile
    Exit Function
errsub: 'Someone has file open
    IsFileOpen = True
    Close hdlFile
End Function
Or just access the Excel file without "opening it" at all using OLE DB (use SQL to modify it) or ExecuteExcel4Macro.
Cheers

How to recover Excel file if not saved?

The situation is - an accountant in an Excel file deleted data and save the changes. Tell me how to restore the old data? And in general it possible?

I agree with your viewpoint as Excel autosave is limited to 3-10 minutes and generally it is hard to restore the old data via this method. But i do not agree with that you say it is no way to get the old data because a professional office excel recovery
tool can help get the previous excel easily. Take a random example http://drm-assistant.com/datarescue/restore-overwritten-word-excel-powerpoint-file.html

Office Docs and Excel files mysteriously converting to tmp files

I experienced this twice this month with two different customers. What happens is certain folders with excell and word docs will be moved inside other folders and the files will be gone only some random character file.tmp (
54F81A6B.tmp) The first incident happend on a synology diskstation DS213 Shared Drive where the only fix was to reset the Diskstation and restore from backup. The second incident was on a Windows Home server share. Both computers
are windows 7 pro 64 with office 2013. Im starting to think this is a bug with office 2013. I scanned for viruses and none found. Where do i start to resolve this?

Hi,
Did the issue only occur with the Office files? Do you install some sync software?
I recommend we try to install the Office 2013 SP1.
Next, as far as I know, the Office temp file will display when we open it or use it. We may try to use
Process Monitor to collect which program open/block the Office threads during you copying/pasting.

Excel file can't save

working on an excel file and can't save it cause some other user open the same file as read only and it's not just on one PC it's in a several ones and it's random sometimes appears others not please help
thanks

Hi,
Where is the excel file saved? On a network share or on the local drive?
This issue may occur if the Temp folder is not accessed successfully. We may try to clear the Temp folder with admin account and then test the issue again.
If this issue still persists, I'd recommend you have a look at the following blog article and follow the instructions in it to troubleshoot the issue:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/the_microsoft_excel_support_team_blog/archive/2012/05/14/the-definitive-locked-file-post.aspx
Please let me know the result.

It's recommended to download and install
Configuration Analyzer Tool (OffCAT), which is developed by Microsoft Support teams. Once the tool is installed, you can run it at any time to scan for hundreds of known issues in Office
programs.

Excel file disappeared!

Updated an excel file on a laptop using excel 2007 on XP.
Saved file which is stored on external HDD. Ejected HDD using the eject tool in the taskbar.
Several hours later I tried to open the file on another computer using excel 2010 on Win 7.
Excel opened and I recieved an error that the file path does not exist. I tried to open the file again, this time when I double clicked the file it literally disappeared from the file list in explorer.
I have searched the recycle bin, I have searched recent files with the same name, parts of the name, "~", and "*". Can not find anything. There is no Autosave in excel either.
I tried a recovery program VirtualLab to no avail. Not very familiar with recovery tools.
I can get the raw data for the files again - it is the manipulation done afterward that I can not replicate.
Any suggestions on how to find it? I have been a little lax on back up due to the back up HDD being a pian in the bum.
I bought a new drive to start a fresh back up using Vice Versa and after the scan noticed lots of excel files in the recycle bin with random names - but I can not open these. Is there a recovery tool that would let me check these?

Report Generation tool kit for MS office (Opening an existing excel file and appending to the bottom)

I don't have any problems creating and filling an excel sheet with data. I use the New Report.vi, Easy Title.vi, and Easy Text.vi to create the file. I then save and dispose properly.
What I don't seem to be able to do is open the exsting file and append data to the end of the sheet.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Todd,
You can do this by creating a new Excel report with the existing excel file path wired to the "template" input. Then use "Excel Get Last Row.vi" (located under Report Generation\Excel Specific\Excel General) to obtain the location of the last row. Then use that location to input new data into the file.
Hope this helps,
Dan

.excel file takes lot of time to open after running Custom Program

DB:11.2.0.2.0
Oracle Apps:12.1.3
O/S:AIX 6.1
Hi All,
Issue Description:
When the report is submitted, the data gets populated into the table in less than 30secs and xml gets generated within a minute.
But the program takes some time in displaying the output around 5 mins but when we tried with html, it opens up quickly.
The template has a complex matrix, layout wherein, we are using nested FOR loops to display the data in the required format.
Yesterday, we ran the report “Custom GL STAT Trial Balance Report” in DEV Instance and for around 500+ records, it took around 5 mins.
The excel file is only 1 MB and xml generated is 245 KB
Moreover, recently we had increased the OPP jvm to 3GB to avoid java.lang.memory error what was occurring earlier.
select DEVELOPER_PARAMETERS
from FND_CP_SERVICES
where SERVICE_ID = (select MANAGER_TYPE from FND_CONCURRENT_QUEUES where
CONCURRENT_QUEUE_NAME = 'FNDCPOPP');
2 3 4
DEVELOPER_PARAMETERS
J:oracle.apps.fnd.cp.gsf.GSMServiceController:-mx3072m
Could this issue be due to JVM increase issue or something else?
How, could we monitor the jvm while the report is running to troubleshoot the issue?
Thanks for your time and help on this if anyone is willing to share such an experience faced before?

How can i print an Excel file when in the full screen mode (no print options on toolbar or right clk

using Vista, sometimes after creating and saving an excel file, the document is not visible when the file is reopened.
selecting full screen mode makes the document visible, but the toolbars disappear and the print option does not show up on a right click. How can i print the document and see the document in some other mode than full screen?

In order to print, you can click the CTRL+P keys to launch the print dialog,
Regarding the missing toolbar, try clicking the ALT key to shouw the software menu, then look around under the view option for any available toolbar settings,
If you cannot find it, i would recommend you to try the Microsoft support forums, as they have some more knowledge with their software features
Say thanks by clicking the Kudos thumb up in the post.
