Save file to excel format

-the 3... version of SQL developer has one very important function (from my point of wiev) done unnecessarily difficult.
- in earlier versions (2...) was simply “export data, -> xls- “ and the out coming file was ..in any editable form of Excel – format
- I (personally) moved back using TOAD – main reason was because that sort of unnecessary inconvenience of transferring data to the format my clients wants -- it is boring

I see your point, but I applaud the new Excel output options. I use this feature constantly, and the couple of extra default values and clinks are worth it. Options:
*Maybe just add a "finish" button to the Wizard so that it skips the next "tab" in it (basically defaults to the old Excel export technique). Even with the new features, I think that it is literally just one extra click compared to prior versions.
*Fix the issue where there is an empty column appended to the right of the data (this has been there in all versions to date). To see it, unload to Excel. Open the file in Excel and hit ctrl-end.
*Allow the system to use an Excel "template" so that it uses default fonts, colors, etc. Within the "template", allow you to pick the worksheet and cell that the output goes to (e.g. Summary!A4).
*Fix the date issues, so that when it is exported to Excel, Excel treats dates as real dates not strings
*Support the newer Excel 2007 file format (this has been around for 3 years now)
*Make the SQL easier to read (great feature, difficult to read it). We use SQL Developer to handle a lot of ad hoc queries, and it is convenient to have the SQL worksheet since it saves documenting and debugging time dramatically. The SQL output that is shown on the "Unload Summary" looks right, but when it gets exported, the carriage returns don't display nicely.
All of the above have been entered into the "Exchange" before. Obviously, we can't expect everything to be done by Oracle, but it is great to see them adding capability to this area of the tool. I'd probably try making an extension, but I don't know Java.

  • HT201279 convert Numbers file to Excel format

    When I convert my Numbers file to Excel format, each worksheet name is appended with "Table - 1". 
    Each subsequent conversion adds another "Table - 1" to the name of every worksheet as well.
    How do I stop this from happening?

    If you are exporting then importing repeatedly, it will keep appending these things to the names.
    Numbers document with two sheets, both with a single table called "Table 1" will get exported as two Excel worksheets: "Sheet 1 - Table 1" and "Sheet 2 - Table 1". It creates a separate Excel worksheet for every table and names each with the sheet and table name.
    Reimporting this to Numbers will result in a Numbers document with a sheet called "Sheet 1 - Table 1" and another called "Sheet 2 - Table 1" and both will contain a single table called "Table 1".  It imports each Excel worksheet as a Numbers Sheet and creates a table for each called "Table 1".
    It really doesn't work well to import & export repeatedly. Much better to use one app or the other.

  • Upload a file of Excel Format into Internal Table!!!

    Dear All,
    Currently i have a question for upload a file of excel format, I can just convert the file of excel format to text format first. Then it would be OK.
    As we all know, Frequently,The users would always like to provide the excel format to us. Thus, Is there any solutions directly uploaded the file of Excel format into database for web dynpro for ABAP? Not web dynpro for Java.
    Appreciated what you reply!
    Thanks in advance.

    Richard,

  • When we save a file in excel format from the webpage, the alignment of columns is disturbed which does not happen in IE, P

    We are using Oracle Apps. wherein we have an options to export the contents of the web page. It default stores the file in .tsv format. if we choose to save the file in excel then the file is saved. however when we open the file in excel, the text is garbled. If we try the same option using IE, then the text is automatically aligned as required.

    Dear cor-el, wow you are quick. I understand you better now, but I'm not sure it's a good idea to write to you in dutch, only if you are Dutch yourself.
    Anyway, first the location bar is what I call the address bar.
    Second I work very simple and easy. I never use the address bar when I'm looking for a website.
    I just type the name of whatever I'm looking for in the empty bar on my google page and wait for the response.
    Third, most of the sellers I buy from on ebay, I just discovered by accident and I immediately saved them in my favorites bar.
    So if I need to go to their website(s) I just go to my favorites bar and click on the name of the seller(s) I'm looking for.
    Now to answer the question from your earlier letter, the URL's I'm trying to save are those from the webpage(s) I open on the websites I visit and not from the website(s) itself.
    The second part of your last letter from " You can modify......" is too difficult for me to understand.
    If it's important I'll ask a friend, a mainframe specialist to explain it to me.
    Thanks again for help. Regards, Ruiz

  • Tax Reporter: magnetic media files in Excel format

  • SharePoint Library - If I save file from Excel File Save As - then I always get "File already exists. Do you want to replace it?" - Upload works fine though.

    Hi there,
    In my SP 2010 document library - When I try to save an Excel file from File > Save As menu to the document library it always prompts me "File already exists. Do you want to replace it?" even though the file does not exist in that document library.
    To the same document library - if I upload a file then it accepts it all fine.
    Any clues why I cannot save files using File > Save As menu?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    As I understand, the notification pops up when you save an excel file to SharePoint library, while when directly upload file to library, there is no wrong.
    Please confirm if the issue occurs to other machines.
    Please open Microsoft Office Upload Center on the issue machine, then click settings, clear cache via checking Delete files from the Office Document Cache when they are closed.
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-in/excel-help/office-document-cache-settings-HA010388664.aspx

  • How can I save file as other format?

    I want to create file and save file as others Vetor format,such as Dwg,dxf,ai and i can open it in AutoCad as well as Illustrator.How can i do it ??
    Thanks in advance!
    E-Mail:[email protected]

    every file format has its own format, I mean by format is really "format".
    any characteristic has its own specific place in a special format.
    you can make your own file format, so you will keep your information in a special part of file and so and so.
    And when you want to retrieve your informtion you know where and how you are able to do it.
    Now if you want to use somebody else's format like "DXF" you need to somehow find out what is the format of that particular file, so if you through your application have provided the same type of information and save them in the same manner, your file will become the same format that you wanted to be.
    I invite you take a look at the following address on web:

    Nothing worked. I can't save my file, and I'm late for a meeting. I want a support person to call me. I shouldn't have to pay to fix your bugs.
    I've used this file for over a month, and it was working fine until today.

    I cannot save, or use excel files, just view them.  I cannot even open up the "file" button in an excel sheet, or use macros or anything that should work.  I shut down my computer this morning, and started it up an hour later, and now the sheet
    won't work.  
    Is this because of an update microsoft just put out?  If so, how can I disable it?

  • Render a CSV file in Excel format

    Hi
    I am trying to render a report from BI Publisher in a CSV format. In OBIEE when the report is downloaded as csv, it gets rendered in Excel format. Is there some way to do the same in BI Publsiher also?
    Regards

    Now, i dont think, you can get it automatically open with excel.
    Even if you create RTF template, and get excel output, its not going to be a comma separated file, but it will be a excel file.
    I guess, you have to create RTF template and choose excel option and see, if it fits your requirement.

  • How to set pages to save files in msoffice format (docx) by default?

    need to be  compatable with outside world...  have current version of pages.

    The native document architecture for any version of Pages is not .doc/x, but .pages. It cannot be configured to save in the MS Word format by default. If you must be truly compatible with the outside world, then use Word from Office for Mac 2011, which does save natively in .docx format.
