Reading data in XML files and outputting information into xl spreadsheet

Can anyone help??? i want to read an XML file, and after reading the file, store certain data into a XL speadsheet. i am new to all this and dont know where to start. Can anyone provide me with coded examples or links to certain sites that can provide me with examples. I would be very grateful, thanks!!!

you will either have to use a third party toolkit or develop your own for this purpose. In case you develop your own, please be kind to share it with me ;)
I am not sure about the free ones. But Sitraka is know for developing such kits. For instance you may use sitraka's JClass which will be more then what you need. I guess JClass is free for evaluation, but you have to pay them after that.
all the best, and update this thread if you find anything for free !!
Here are some usefull inks(It seems the very first link provide some free and useful apis. Let me know, if you are able to use them)

Reading data From XML file and setting into ViewObject to Pouplate ADF UI

Hi,
I have following requirement.
I would like to read data from XML file and populate the data in ViewObject so that the data can be displayed in the ADF UI.
Also when user modifies the data in the ADF UI, it should be modified back into to ViewObject.
Here is an example - XML file contains Book Title and Author. I would like to read Book Title and Author from XML file and set it into ViewObject Attribute and then display Book title and Author in ADF UI page. Also when user modifies Book title and Author, I would like to store it back in View Object.
Please help me with this requirement and let me know if any solution exist in ADF, for populating the ADF UI screen fields with external XML file data.
Thanks

Read data from xml files and populate internal table

Hi.
How to read data from xml files into internal tables?
Can u tell me the classes and methods to read xml data..
Can u explain it with a sample program...

<pre>DATA itab_accontextdir TYPE TABLE OF ACCONTEXTDIR.
DATA struct_accontextdir LIKE LINE OF itab_accontextdir.
DATA l_o_error TYPE REF TO cx_root.
DATA: filename type string ,
 xmldata type xstring .
DATA: mr TYPE REF TO if_mr_api.
mr = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
mr->get( EXPORTING i_url = 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'
 IMPORTING e_content = xmldata ).
WRITE xmldata.
TRY.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
 SOURCE XML xmldata
 RESULT shiva = itab_accontextdir.
CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
ENDTRY.
LOOP AT itab_accontextdir INTO struct_accontextdir.
 WRITE: / struct_accontextdir-context_id,
 struct_accontextdir-context_name,
 struct_accontextdir-context_type.
 NEW-LINE.
 ENDLOOP.</pre>
 
Description:
In the above code snippet I am storing the data in an xml file(you know xml is used to store and transport data ) called 'xml_accontextdir.xml' that is uploaded into the MIME repository at path 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'.
The below API is used to read a file in MIME repo and convert it into a string that is stored in ' xmldata'. (This is just a raw data that is got by appending the each line of xml file).
mr = cl_mime_repository_api=>get_api( ).
mr->get( EXPORTING i_url = 'SAP/PUBLIC/BC/xml_files_accontext/xml_accontextdir.xml'
 IMPORTING e_content = xmldata ).
 Once the 'xmldata' string is available we use the tranformation to parse the xml string that we have got from the above API and convert it into the internal table.
<pre>TRY.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
 SOURCE XML xmldata
 RESULT shiva = itab_accontextdir.
CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
ENDTRY.</pre>
Here the trasnsformation 'id ' is used to conververt the source xml 'xmldata' to resulting internal table itab_accontextdir, that have same structure as our xml file 'xml_accontextdir.xml'. In the RESULT root of the xml file has to be specified. (In my the root is 'shiva').
Things to be taken care:
One of the major problem that occurs when reading the xml file is 'format not compatible with the internal table' that you are reading into internal table. Iin order to get rid of this issue use one more tranformation to convert the data from the internal table into the xml file.
<pre>TRY.
 CALL TRANSFORMATION id
 SOURCE shiv = t_internal_tab
 RESULT XML xml.
 CATCH cx_root INTO l_o_error.
ENDTRY.
WRITE xml.
NEW-LINE.</pre>
 
This is the same transformation that we used above but the differnce is that the SOURCE and RESULT parameters are changed the source is now the internal table and result is *xml *string. Use xml browser that is available with the ABAP workbench to read the xml string displayed with proper indentation. In this way we get the format of xml file to be used that is compatable with the given internal table.
Thank you, Hope this will help you!!!

I need to extract some basic data from image files and put it into a spreadsheet.

Hi.
I'm looking for I believe is a simple task but I am not sure how to go about it. I want to get the relevant data (seen in the screen grab below) into a spread sheet. I need to get the File Name, Size, Dimensions, Resolution and Kind into the spreadsheet so I can better analyze the data for my purposes. I have tried to find EXIF and IPTC extractors but only come across products that show me the info with no way of transferring it. I figured there must be a way to do this in the Finder. Maybe it's a simple Automator task (which I am not very good at) or a Script.
Can anyone guide me thru or suggest a tool that would work?
Thanks,
Stephen

Most certainly it is not a feature of iPhoto for the Mac
thought that was a clear statement
and the reason that LarryHN mentioned iPhoto is that you posted your question in the iPhoto for Mac forum
There has to be a way to get that metadata into a text file and then transfer it to the spreadsheet.
not sure why you think that
I guess you can print your screen shot and do an OCR scan

Read data from XML file and plot graph on Ms Words

Hi,
I'm using Visual Studio 2010, what I want to do is written in the title.
so far i was able read and plot graph on a Form but i unable to use the same method on Crystal Reporting.
The method plotting in Crystal Reporting is complicated and it require a fix data set or database which is not suitable for my case because every time the number of column and row or data will be different. (this is what i think base on what i found)
is there a way for me to display the output on a ms words?
and what is the method.
thanks.

Hi Huangcongmazhananzi,
Based on your description, I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum for this issue, since this forum is to discuss the VS IDE.
I might not have the correct detailed answer you need, but I might lead you into the right direction to solve your problem.
If this issue is related to the Windows Forum app, this forum would be better:

Hi, extract data from xml file and insert into another exiting xml file

i am searching code to extract data from xml file and insert into another exiting xml file by a java program. I understood it is easy to extract data from a xml file, and how ever without creating another xml file. We want to insert the extracted data into another exiting xml file. Suggestions?
1st xml file which has two lines(text1.xml)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<xs:PrintDataRequest xmlns:xs="http://com.unisys.com/Anid"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://com.unisys.com/Anid file:ANIDWS.xsd">
<xs:Person>
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="http://com.unisys.com/Anid file:ANIDWS.xsd">
These two lines has to be inserted in the existing another xml(text 2.xml) file(at line 3 and 4)
Regards,
bubbly

RandomAccessFile? If you know where you want to insert it.Are you sure about this? If using this, the receiving file would have to have bytes inserted that exactly match the number of bytes replaced. I'm thinking that you'll likely have to stream through the second XML with a SAX parser and copy information (or insert new information) as you stream with an XML writer of some sort.

If the files are small, you can load the target file in a DOM document, insert the data from the source file and persist the DOM.
If the files are large, you probably want to use a StAX or SAX.

This is a possible solution to your problem.

 public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException{
 //retrieve the commandline parameters
 String fileName = "default.html";
 if (args.length != 0) fileName =args[0];

 System.exit(0);

 i = st.nextToken(); //then after it is the href value.
 getURL(st.sval); //retrieve address
 in.close();
 static void getURL(String s) {
 //Check string if it has http:// and truncate if it does
 if (s.indexOf("http://") > -1) {

 //if no '/' then print all
 if (s.indexOf('/') > -1) {
