Regarding Excel file reading

HI All,
I am trying to read a EXCEL file from Jakarta POI Excel Api.All works fine.But When the reading file if the cell value is like 74100000000000 I am getting the output like this 7.41E13.Even i formatted the cell to the number,Text etc But no luck

All right, I'm the first to admit things need to be "dumbed down" for me.
One of my problems with technology in general is that too often it is assumed one is born with some specialized knowledge.
When I clicked on the above link, my first thought was, "What does POI stand for?"
I searched the site for a definition and also "googled" it.
Nothing.
My second thought was that it seems another layer of software, which looks just as complex as Java itself, is required to be able to read a spreadsheet. Why is there no package equivalent to java.sql? Is this just another result of the old battle between Sun and Microsoft and the browser wars of the nineties?

A serious issue with excel file read in ODI

hi gurus,
Issue with excel file read is that we can read only one file by setting the path from ODBC Data Source Administrator-->System DNS -->Select Work book
what i want to read the dynamic path(Every time I cant go back and set the Work book to select the excel file..
So i came up with a solution to write a Vbscript that convert the excel to csv my problem got solved for dynamic paths the script is as follow:
Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments
For I = 0 to objArgs.Count - 1
FullName = objArgs(I)
FileName = Left(objArgs(I), InstrRev(objArgs(I), ".") )
Set objExcel = CreateObject("Excel.application")
set objExcelBook = objExcel.Workbooks.Open(FullName)
objExcel.application.visible=false
objExcel.application.displayalerts=false
objExcelBook.SaveAs FileName & "csv",23
objExcel.Application.Quit
objExcel.Quit
Set objExcel = Nothing
set objExcelBook = Nothing
Next
Now this script convert the xls file to csv with comma seprated values
e.g in excel sheet if data is ABC XYZ PQR
csv will come with ABC,XYZ,PQR
here the delimiter is , i want the delimiter as pipe | who's ascii code is 124
but if i change 23 with 124 its not working i getting the error cannot save as...
can anyone tell me that what should be the correct code for pipe
so that the output is ABC|XYZ|PQR
AS WE CAN USE THE SCRIPTS IN TOOLS

I dont have the answer for your question but i have different approach in handling multiple Excel File.
Step 1. Copy a sample source Excel File and Call it Final.xls .
Step 2. Map this Final.xls to DSN and in Topology call this Final.xls
Step 3. Do the Reversing and Map and test the Interface . Once its done.
Step 4. Create a Package and using a http://odiexperts.com/?p=1426 get the list of all the Excel File
Step 5 . Using this http://odiexperts.com/?p=273 create a Loop to Read the Excel File name
Step 6 . Copy using OdiFileCopy to Final.xls and run your interface .
Step 7. Increment the Loop and copy your next File for Final and run the interface
Step 8 . Finally you will be able to read all the Excel File .
Step 9 . Delete the source file [ Optional ]
Hope this helps.

We have requirement where a program will generate a report and download it into an excel file on desktop. When the file is downloaded, two of its columns should be non editable.
I know complete sheet of excel can be protected using OLE, can we protect few columns also using OLE?
any idea how can it be done?

Excel File read using WebUtil does not work. Gives java.lang.NoSuchMethodEr

We have a form which reads from an Excel File. The form works in development env., but in the live env when we deployed the form it does not work. Form fails @ the 1st call to Client_OLE2 where we set the Excel file to read.
For both the envs. the values are given here:

Works fine in Dev but does not work in Live. Other Webutil functions like file open dialog box works fine in live, only this Excel read is not working.

Channa,
I sounds like you might have missed a configuration step on your Linux application server (AS). I recommend you go back through the configuration of your AS and verify each step of the WebUtil Runtime Setup Checklist was completed correctly. Seach the Forms Help system on "Runtime Setup Checklist" for a copy of the checklist.
Hope this helps,

IBot Issue regarding excel files

Hello All,
I am facing an iBot Problem .
Problem description:
Application running in Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.0
OBI scheduler server is working fine, so scheduled iBots are being delivered successfully. However, whenever the agent is supposed to send an excel file attached, it results truncated or corrupted. In contrast, the pdf report is delivered correctly. On the other hand, in other all cases, the exports to excel are working fine.
I restarted the server twice, but I am facing the same error.
Please suggest any solution.

Help Regarding excel file download

Hi,
I have developed a object with alv list display aand in the selection screen maintained a checkbox for EXPORT TO EXCEL..
and for each and every field in the field catlog wriiten the code like
IF P_EX = 'X'.
      LS_FIELDCAT-ROW_POS    = '1'.
      LS_FIELDCAT-COL_POS = 1.
But this output is not flowing into excel file when executing...can anyone help me how to download the output data into excel file when we execute.because this report runs in the background and after execution data should be flown into excel file.
Regards,
Venkat.

Hi Venkat,
use this Function module to download the file
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      FILENAME                        = 'C:\Documents and Settings\sap\Desktop\Hierarchy.xls'
   WRITE_FIELD_SEPARATOR           = '#'
    TABLES
      DATA_TAB                        = gt_target.
Here gt_target is the internal table which holds the data.
Hope this solves your purpose...

GUI_UPLOAD for Excel file read

Hi Experts,
I am transferring excel sheet content to internal table, for which I am using GUI_UPLOAD function module. It is successfully reading, but I am getting ##### values instead of text values. I am getting more than expected lines also. My code is below.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

I used my file type as 'ASC' and 'BIN' also. Can anybody help me?
Thanks and regards,

the function module gui_upload, accepts the filename as a string variable....

Re: Export to Excel Sheet functionality

Regarding excel file

Hi,
my reqirement on excelsheet.one of the condition is that file will be rejected when more than one company code or more than 200 line item per document...the comapny code in the excelsheet is col06,and the line item is col24.how can we write code for this ..?wht am i checking the coding is not working so,send me useful code.it isreally very urgent..
<b>I repeat per document not per file</b> .
Thanks In advance

Hi,
what i can understand from your question that only you want to write those records which have lt 200 items for the document.
sort it_datatab by col06.
itab[] = it_dbtab[].
loop at it_datatab into wa_datatab.
at new col06.
*<or you can use on change of it_dbtab-col06 if col06 is not your first field>
v_bukrs = wa_datatab-col06. " take the company code into a variable
clear count.
endat.
cnt = cnt + 1 .
if cnt Gt 200 .
delete itab where col06 = v_bukrs.
endif.
endloop.
now your itab contains the value which document no have lt 200 line items.
if it is also not satisfying your requirement then let me know.
regards
