Reading OLE files

does anyone know how can i read (only the text) from OLE files, such as WORD or EXCEL, in java?
thanks.

You can do that with special libraires. Look at ww.apache.org for examples.

ABAP OLE Word for reading a file

Hi,
I am looking for the method or property to get the word document content to send it to the clipboard.
All I found an OLE is for writing but not for reading and I need it to read a file.
Someone got an idea?
Thanks a lot.

Hi David, the ad on top sucks.
it's already almost 10 years old but SAP did not develop anything new un this area (as far as I know),
[Desktop Office Integration (BC-CI) H|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCCIOFFI/BCCIOFFI.pdf]
copy_selection
You use this method to copy marked text from the office document to the clipboard:
CALL METHOD document->copy_selection
EXPORTING no_flush = no_flush
IMPORTING error = error
retcode = retcode.
paste_clipboard
You use this method to insert the contents of the clipboard at the current cursor position. The
clipboard contents are inserted as fixed text; there is no link to the object:
CALL METHOD document->paste_clipboard
EXPORTING no_flush = no_flush
IMPORTING error = error
retcode = retcode.
select_all
You use this method to mark all text in the office document.
CALL METHOD document->select_all
EXPORTING no_flush = no_flush
IMPORTING error = error
retcode = retcode.
I hope you were looking for this.

How to read .xls file from FTP server t oInternal table

Hi
am using the FTP_SERVER_TO_R3 to read xls file from FTP server to internal table
but the data i get in LT_TEXT is special characters.
CALL FUNCTION 'FTP_SERVER_TO_R3'
EXPORTING
handle = hdl
fname = f_name "ProdDataFromCRM.xls.
* CHARACTER_MODE = 'X'
* IMPORTING
* BLOB_LENGTH =
TABLES
BLOB = lt_text
* TEXT = lt_text
EXCEPTIONS
TCPIP_ERROR = 1
COMMAND_ERROR = 2
DATA_ERROR = 3
OTHERS = 4
can any one help me out to get the exact data..
Really appreciate your quick response..
Thank You

Hi, if you really retrieve an excel file, you can not see the data in ABAP. You may see them in Excel. For this you may use
CALL METHOD document->open_document_from_table
of the interface i_oi_document_proxy for OLE objects. You can access the data with reference to the interface i_oi_spreadsheet.
Please check [Desktop Office Integration (BC-CI)|http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCCIOFFI/BCCIOFFI.pdf] for details.
But, who knows, perhaps you want "And Now For Something Completely Different".

Reader OLE server does not draw PDF-document if paper size is too big

If PDF document paper size is for example A0 (841 x 1189 mm) OLE object can be created and application shows PDF content correctly. But if application saves it's document and reopens it Reader does not draw content of embedded PDF document any more. Decreasing PDF document size to A1 solves the problem. Embedded object is not corrupted because it is possible to open it to Reader.
I'm confused why Acrobat Reader OLE server is capable of drawing PDF file content in creation phase but not later on when application opens same file containing embedded PDF objects.
"Application" means all possible application that has OLE support. I have tried this with three different applications and the behavior is same with all applications. Because of this I assume that application I'm developing does not have bug.

Hello Sig
The scanner works with a Windows computer, which proves the device is functional at a cursory level. The drivers are now distributed by Apple and this is an Apple computer. There is no scanning software provided by HP. HP's answer is that Mountain Lion takes care of all of this. I anticipate that some setting or driver was somehow tweaked since the scanner had been working with Mountain Lion until a few days ago. The device in question is an Apple product. So, I'm pretty confident that I'm in the right place.

Can no longer read plist files

I've got a script that iterates through a list of hostnames, connects to each host, looks for the existence of a list of applications, and if they exist reads their Info.plist for the version. This worked seamlessly until a couple of days ago. The only change I can think of is having changed my username on all of my Macs from <username> to <username>.sa to differentiate privileged accounts from unprivileged accounts. Yes, this caused a number of issues, and I've hunted them down. I can connect to every host with <username>.sa, perform actions with sudo, etc. What I can't do any more is read plist files, even when logged in locally:
quad:~ username.sa$ defaults read /Applications/Utilities/Adobe\ Flash\ Player\ Install\ Manager.app/Contents/Info.plist

The file is there. It is readable. I can read it... just not with the 'defaults' command. This is with all plists on all of my Macs.

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Error: Unable to read footer file

Hoping someone out there can help me. I get this error on
everypage in my site and have no idea how to stop it.
Error: Unable to read footer file
The error does not show up when I preview inside dreamweaver
but only rears its ugly head after I post the site up on the
internet. I have searched for hours through the Dreamweaver menus
and can not find these elusive footers and have no idea where they
are coming from or what footer file it is trying to read.. Please
help. This probably has a simple solution and I am just not able to
understand it. Thank you.

Possibly, but without a URL we can't comment. Post it, and
we'll see.
At a guess, sounds like an include file is missing. Are you
on some sort of
free hosting plan where the host puts some adverts in the
footer? If that
file is removed from your site directory you might get the
error you've
mentioned (at least, that was the case on the only other time
I've seen this
error)

Pete.

Error reading excel file using POI.

Hi ,
I am having some problem when reading the excel file.
While reading excel file I am getting error-java.io.IOException: Unable to read entire block; 4 bytes read; expected 512 bytes.
part of my code:-
InputStream stream = objFormFile.getInputStream();
POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem(stream);//getting above error here.
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook(fs);
Case 1:
I download the file on the system ,save it ,and then directly upload it to the system ,I get the above error .
Case 2:
It works fine if I download the excel and manually open and save it and then upload it .
I am using JDK1.4.1 and poi-2.5.1-final-20040804.jar.
Can any one please help me out for the above problem?
Edited by: hruday on Jul 31, 2008 3:20 AM

Instead of using POIFSFileSystem, try to directly create the HSSFWorkbook
InputStream stream = objFormFile.getInputStream();
//POIFSFileSystem fs = new POIFSFileSystem( stream );//getting above error here.
HSSFWorkbook wb = new HSSFWorkbook( stream );

Error reading Remote file when the connection is slow

I have a program that reads a file from a remote server. The file is an xml file.
This uses URL inputstream.
This works just fine but when the xml that it reads grow in size, the content of the file is not completely sent to the variable string.
I have come to a conclusion that slow connection to the server could somehow cause this. The error is intermittent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
I hope you guys could help me tune this code or if you have suggestions like other ways to read a remote file. Which will work even if the file grows bigger.
Thanks
public String readRemoteFile(String fName)
try

well looks that ur run() method is being called more then one time (..)
why dont u try file method exists() before writing it to ensure that it is not written previously

I found the installActions file in the installer folder and I think this could be the problem
INFO: The 'shiphomeproperties.xml' file is missing from shiphome location '/home/oracle/Desktop/database/install/../stage/products.xml.' Add this file to the 'Disk1/stage' directory of the shiphome.
though I am attaching the log file for more details do you think the installer is corrupt :(

Error reading wsdl file excepetion null

Hi
I am trying to invoke a proxy service (web service) wsdl from a bpel process. When i add a web service adapter, put url of external web service and save it, all my service end points defined in the BPEL process are becoming non editable. Binding of operation is changing from web service to HTTP binding for all end points. When I try to edit any partner link, Jdev throws an error " error reading wsdl file excepetion null " for local services. For external service, even though i am refering to a url on the server, it points to " C:\Oracle\Middleware\jdeveloper\jdev\bin\...\xxxx?WSDL" and throws same error " failed to read wsdl file(System could not find the path specified". I am just clueless as to why this is happening. Any help is much appreciated.

\\Error Reading Rules File when dimbuild with DLR

Hi
I am using Essbase 11.1.2.1.
I create a DLR via the web console EAS (11.1.2.1 too) : a very simple one : dimbuild DLR, ";" as separator, 2 fields (parent and child)
when i try do do a "Update Ouline..." with a very simple file (1 line : accounts;test) I have this error message "\\Error Reading Rules File"
I don't know if it can help but if I create the same DLR on another 7.1 essbase serveur through this same wec eas console (11.1.2.1), I have no problem...
another information, too : my 11.1.2.1 server has a //ESS_LOCALE English_UnitedStates.Latin1@Binary ESSLANG. My 7.1 server has a //ESS_LOCALE French_France.ISO-8859-15@Default ESSLANG. I really don't know if there is a link, or absolutely not.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Fanny

unable to load essmsh.exe : the error message seems to indicate that it is a problem with a path in the environment variables.
So if you say that the "Error Reading Rules File" is typically a path issue, all is probably linked!
The admin will probably correct that tomorrow : I let you know if it solves the problem!
Thanks!

Error reading product file driver files

When attempting apply a large merge patch I receive the following error:
Screening out files not valid for this installation...
Determining valid on-site files...
AutoPatch error:
The following file is missing:
/oracle/prodappl/pa/11.5.0/admin/driver/pasb038.drv
AutoPatch error:
Error reading product file driver files [complete; make tapes]
AutoPatch error:
Error determining valid on-site files
Any ideas?
I've tried using options=noprereq option, but that didn't help.

- Try to restore the file from a backup you have Or just copy it from any other environment.
- Make sure that you have included all pre-req patches in the merged file.
I've tried using options=noprereq optionBy this you tell adpatch not to check for pre-req, use 'options=prereq' instead.

Error reading Maya file

I was trying to import a camera into AE, but I encounted the error: AEGP Plugin MayaImport: Error reading Maya file. (5027::12)
Here's how I did:
Version of softwares:
Maya 2014 and 2013
After Effects CS6
System:
Windows 7 & Mac OS 10.6.8
I exported Camera and locator from a maya(.mb) file and save it as a .ma file. I baked all keyables of the camera.
Then I tried to import it into AE. and the error occured.
I tried different versions of maya and different systems, as I mentioned above. But the results were the same.
Does anybody know how to fix it? Or show me another way to import Maya's camera into AE?
Thanks!

Without seeing the actual Maya file nobody can say anything. Could simply need a manual editing of the file version info or some reformatting...
