Read from excel file stops at column 5(E) returns error at data variant function

hi,
i am read an excel file approx 15 rows by 16 rows.
The vi works fine upto 5 rows and 5 columns and prints data on front panel after using data variant.
The Cell range are also seems to be correct for higher rows/columns but then the errors occurs at data variant to 2d dbl stage.
Any idea what might be wrong in the vi
Thanks
chintan

Thanks for the reply.
I found out what was wrong the data types should be the string type and i was using DBL.

Error in reading from excel file

hi,
I have written a program which reads from excel file
and based on the value of the column i have to do something.
Everything is fine but when i run it, it produces an error message
Exception: For input string: "851.0"
the value 851.0 is acually the value of the first column.
Here is the code and i hope someone can help me to find the solution
try{
                           Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
                           Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:odbc:exceltest" );

                                       System.err.print("Exception: ");
                                       System.err.println(ex.getMessage());
                             }

Maybe 851.0 is float value, not string.
Try Object columnValue1 =
rs.getObject(i); instead of String
columnValue1 = rs.getString(i);
You are absolutely right i actually change the line
custNo =Integer.parseInt(columnValue1);
into
custNo =Double.parseDouble(columnValue1);
Thanks alot :)

.exe reading from Excel files

Hi everybody,
I know similar questions have been asked lots of times but while searching the forum didn't find an anwer to my problem.
I created an exe file (using exe4j) of a java application which reads form Excel files. Although it works when I run it from my editor, when running the exe file it cant find the Excel file. More specifically I have this error:
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
In order to read from excel files I use POI. I used it so as not to use ODBC driver and make it possible to run in every computer. When adding the driver, the exe works.Do you know a way to make it work without having to install the Driver?
Thanks in Advance

You need database drivers to read excel spread sheets?
Also, why did you make it an exe? just jar it and be done with it.

How to read from excel file and write it using implicit jsp out object

our code is as below:Please give us proper solution.
we are reading from Excel file and writing in dynamicaly generated Excel file.it is writing but not as original excel sheet.we are using response.setContentType and response.setHeader for generating pop up for saveing the original file in to dynamically generated Excel file.

If you want to copy files as fast as possible, without processing them (as the DOS "copy" or the Unix "cp" command), you can try the java.nio.channels package.
import java.nio.*;
import java.nio.channels.*;
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
class Kopy {
     * @param args [0] = source filename
     *        args [1] = destination filename
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        if (args.length != 2) {
            System.err.println ("Syntax: java -cp . Kopy source destination");
            System.exit(1);
        File in = new File(args[0]);
        long fileLength = in.length();
        long t = System.currentTimeMillis();
        FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream (in);
        FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream (args[1]);
        FileChannel fci = fis.getChannel();
        FileChannel fco = fos.getChannel();
        fco.transferFrom(fci, 0, fileLength);
        fis.close();
        fos.close();
        t = System.currentTimeMillis() - t;
        NumberFormat nf = new DecimalFormat("#,##0.00");
        System.out.print (nf.format(fileLength/1024.0) + "kB copied");
        if (t > 0) {
            System.out.println (" in " + t + "ms: " + nf.format(fileLength / 1.024 / t) + " kB/s");

Store data in mysql after reading from excel files

i am trying to make o program where i will read the data from excel files and i will store them in a database. I am using eclipse as editor and mySQL. I am using APACHE POI to read the excel files and JDBC for the connection. The excel files have the structure as shown below:
ID NAME SALARY STREET
321 TIM 1254 14 avenue
121 PAUL 1265 28h oktovriou
432 NICK 4521 papaflessa
I have of course plenty of such files which contains many more rows and columns. The purpose of my program is to read the data, create table named as the name of the excel file and the fields of each table to be the first rows of the excel file. Afterwards the values will be the rest data of the excel file. In the code below i have managed to read them, show the data in the console. Afterwrds i am trying to call a database with JDBC but there i have problem when i create the table.
try
String[] allFields;
String createTableStr = "CREATE TABLE" + createTableStr
+ "(" + org.apache.commons.lang3.StringUtils.join(allFields,
",") + ")";
Could anyone help me?

Read from Excel file in SP2013

Hi,
I have a requirement to read data from a formatted Excel file which is located in a document library, and put the contents in a List via code. This functionality should check - if he record exists update the list item, if not create a new list
item.
I have installed the PIA assemblies and have referenced the excel iterop services dll from
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\Visual Studio Tools for Office\PIA\Office15\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll
I am trying to use the excel interop services but getting the below error :
public void readexcelfromExcelOp()
using (ClientContext clientContext = new ClientContext("http://development002/"))
List docList = clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("MDRDocuments");
lblstatus.Text = " got the document library ";
Excel.Application xlApp = new Excel.Application();
Excel.Workbook xlWorkbook = xlApp.Workbooks.Open(@"D:/C.xlsx");
Excel._Worksheet xlWorksheet = xlWorkbook.Sheets[1];
Excel.Range xlRange = xlWorksheet.UsedRange;
int rowCount = xlRange.Rows.Count;
int colCount = xlRange.Columns.Count;
for (int i = 1; i <= rowCount; i++)
for (int j = 1; j <= colCount; j++)
lblExcel.Text = xlRange.Cells[i, j].Value2.ToString();
Error 1 at the above highlighted section of the code - One or more types required to compile a dynamic expression cannot be found. Are you missing a reference?

You might want to look at Excel Services and use the .../_vti_bin/ExcelRest.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee556820.ASPX
This will allow an ajax call in the browser or web request to return Xml. To ease access to content within Excel file setup Named Ranges. http://development002/_vti_bin/ExcelRest.aspx/MDRDocuments/c.xlsx/model/Ranges('MyNamedRange')
Hope this helps.
If looking to access Excel server-side use the OpenXML API, but avoid
accessing the physical hard drive; put the Excel document in SharePoint.

BO Data Services - Reading from excel file and writing to SQL Server Table

Hi,
I would like to read data from an excel file and write it to a SQL Server Data base table without making any transformations using Data Services.

Read from text file and seperate column

hello,
I have a problem reading my text file. This text file is downloaded from weather link. All data will be changed upon the selection of user. my problem is I can read the data column by column but i cannot retrive the right column header for each data. I also attached the test file. Can somebody help me? Thanks in advance..

Hi
Sorry, I missed that one. The file formatting is strange though. It uses spaces to separate columns but also within columns. I attached a modified VI that tries to take care of that, but it fails at the columns "Solar Energy" and "Hi Solar Rad.". This is very difficult to read programmatically as there's one space each between "Solar", "Hi", and "Solar" again. So how do we distinguish between column separator and space within column?
Is download.txt the original file? Or was it probably modified by an editor that would replace tabs by space characters?

Problem in reading from excel file with my requirement

Hi,
Below is my input excel file format
A    XXX
B    XXX
C    XXX
D    E   F   G H I    J K L M N
XX   XX XX XX.........................XX
All the A...N are headings and XX's are values.
How should I define an internal table for this requirement. I am using FM TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP to read input file.
Please let me know the correct way to define internal table for the above file format.
Regards,
Cheritha

Hello Cheritha,
Your final internal table(t_final) should have all the fields viz. A, B, C, D etc.
You need to read the file to an internal table say t_data. In the internal table t_data, the field values will be each row in this internal table.
So you need to loop on t_data and based on the field name assign it to the corresponding field in the internal table t_final.
Hope this is clear if any clarification please do reply

Reading the data from excel file which is in application server.

Hi,
Iam trying to read the data from excel file which is in application server.
I tried using the function module ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE. But it didn't work.
I tried just reading using open data set and read data set it is giving junk characters.
Please suggest me if you have any solution.
Best Regards,

Hi Narendra,
Please see the below code I have written
OPEN DATASET pa_sfile for INPUT in text mode ENCODING DEFAULT MESSAGE wf_mess.
CHECK sy-subrc = 0.
DO.
READ DATASET pa_sfile INTO wf_string.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
EXIT.
else.
split wf_string at wl_# into wf_field1 wf_field2 wa_upload-field3
wa_upload-field4 wa_upload-field5 wa_upload-field6 wa_upload-field7 wa_upload-field8
wa_upload-field9 wa_upload-field10 wa_upload-field11 wa_upload-field12 wa_upload-field13

wa_upload-field34 wa_upload-field35 wa_upload-field36 .
wa_upload-field1 = wf_field1.
wa_upload-field2 = wf_field2.
append wa_upload to int_upload.
clear wa_upload.
ENDIF.
ENDDO.
CLOSE DATASET pa_sfile.
Please note Iam using ECC5.0 and it is not allowing me to declare wl_# as x as in your code.
Also if Iam using text mode I should use extension encoding etc.( Where as not in your case).
Please suggest me any other way.
Thanks for your help,

Read from measurement file (wrong values)

I have a VI where I save data using the ''Write To Measurement File utility''. When I open the .lvm file in the note pad I can see all the data correctly, but when I use the "Read From Measurement File" tool and try tho make a graph the data shown is not correct. Attached the .lvm file and one image of the chart that labview made using the "Read From Measurement File". If you open the lvm in the notepad you can see that the time column goes up to 22 sec. In the chart the time axis goes only up to 7,5 sec. What is going wrong??? Thanks
Ps: I changed the file .lvm to .txt to attach
Solved!

I was able to do it. But the X data wasn't correct. That is because your timestamps aren't regular spaced. So you can't use a waveform graph.
You need to use an XY graph. See the attached code for how to convert the two channels of data (time, your values) into a datatype to feed to the XY graph.

FROM EXCEL FILE TO INTERNAL TABLE

HI GURU'S,
i'm using the following code to conver the excel file into internal table.
CALL FUNCTION 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'

What is the exact format for the to send the Excel File.
My requirement is the Excel file contains the several fields , that should be stored as a records in the internal table
My problem is when i send the data in the excel file as one column, i'm getting all the data in the first column of the Internal Table.
If i send the data in the excel file as a record it is not filling the internal table.
what is the problem??/
if the Excel files contain multiple records is it able to convert the data into internal table records.
Regards,
Adi.

Reading long text from excel file to an internal table

Hi
Can any body tell me how to read long text from excel file to an internal table.
When i am using this FM KCD_EXCEL_OLE_TO_INT_CONVERT then it is reading only 32 characters from each cell.
But in my excel sheet in one of the cell has very long text which i need to upload into a internal table.
may i know which FM or what logic i need to use for this problem.
Regards

Hi,
Here is an example program. It will upload an Excel file with two columns. You could also assign the Excel structure dynamically, but I wanted to keep the example simple. The main point is that the internal table (it_excel in this example) must match the Excel structure that you want to convert.
Remember, this is just an example to help you figure out how to properly use the technique. It will certainly need to be modified to fit your requirements, and as always there may be a better way to get the Excel converted... this is just one possibility that has worked for me in the past.

Read data from Excel file and diaplay in Webdynpro

Hi all,
I need some help. I have a Excel file with set of name, phonenumbers . I want to know how to display the data using Webdynpro. Could some one help me. help is appreciated and I promise to award points for right answer.
Thank you
Maruti

<b>Hi
i can explain you to read data from Excel file
First You have to download the jxl.jar file. You can get this file from the Below site
</b><a href="http://www.andykhan.com/jexcelapi/download.html">jexcelapi jar</a>
It will be in Compressed Fromat So Unzip it to get the Contents
After Unzipping The File You will get a Folder (jexcelapi/jxl.jar)
Now in NWDS open web dynpro explorer, Right Click Your Project, a popup menu will appear and in that click Properties
You will get window displaying your Project Properties
On Left Side of the window You Will Find "Java Build Path"
Click That "Java Build Path" and you will get 4 Tabs Showing ( Source,Projects,Libraries,Order and Export)
Click Libraries Tab
You will find options many options buttons
In that click the Button "Add External Jars"
You will get Window in order to fecth the jxl.jar file from the location you had stored
After selecting the jxl.jar i will get displayed and click ok
Now Open Navigator
Open Your Project
You will find Lib folder
Copy the jxl.jar to that lib folder
Note : You cannot Read the Content from the excel file directly
First You Have to copy that file to the Server,
And from the Server you can get the file absolute path
With the absolute path you can read the contents of the Excel file
You have to save the Excel file as .xls Format and Not as xlsx format i will not accept that...
You have Upload the Excel file from the Server Using the File Upload UI Element
This Coding will extract 3 columns from the Xls File
