SRM 7.0 - Importing RFQ through excel with hierarchies

Hello Experts,
I am working with SRM 7.0 Portal, and I have a problem when I import an RFQ through excel with hierarchies for Portal.
I am using the BADI BBP_PD_DOWNLOAD to handle export and import of data from the portal.
To export to excel i use the function module BBP_PDH_FILE_DOWNLOAD_RENDER, and to import i use BBP_PDH_FILE_UPLOAD_PARSER.
The problem is that i export data from portal layout to excel with the defined hierarchies, however when i import the same excel, the data is displayed in the Portal without the hierarchies were defined.
Has anyone experienced this problem?
Best regards
Ricardo Marques

Hi,
I would import the Excel Data to SRM-MDM Catalog. User can select items from catalog.
Regards,
Masa

Word Mail Merge does not accurately import a Text field in Excel with more than 15 numbers

Hi, I've looked through some of the discussions regarding importing numbers from excel into word mail merge. I'm having a problem. In Excel I have a column that includes numbers with more than 15 digits. In Excel, I have made this column a text format, so
now in Excel those long numbers show up correctly. However, when doing a mail merge in Word, again the numbers past 14 digits change to zeros. I've read many help articles about this but am still not finding a solution. I even tried going the DDE route and
that didn't do it either. I checked out this answer: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f57/mail-merge-data-corruption-429351.html which was the most helpful, but again, DDE seemed to work for this person but not for me. I hope someone can offer a solution.
I was hoping that I could do a picture switch, but that does not seem to be an option for this particular problem. I don't know why importing it in DDE format did not solve the problem. Thanks for any help!

Wow! After all my searching and just after posting this I figured out the solution! I originally had { MERGEFIELD Field_Name \# # } But then I just removed everything after the field name, as is normal for any other text field, so not indicating it was
a number, and now it shows up correctly even if the number (from a Text formatted field in Excel) is longer than 15 digits. Hope this helps anyone else who has a problem. I did not use DDE to solve this problem.

RFQ FAX or Email through sap with Attachment

Dear Gurus,
I want to sent RFQ through FAX or by Email, do i need any extra other software as infterface to send fax or email outside SAP?
Can i send Email & Fax through SAP Directly? If yes then, the configuration at MEssages (forms & output control), MN02, & vendor master with correct fax & email address is these settings is enough orelse i am missing any settings?
Is it possibel to send attachment with RFQ through FAX or by email?
Please advice

Hi ,
You need to check with your BASIS team whether they have SAP Fax /email /PDF services implemented or active.
Most of the clients would have activated Email//PDF process , but not fax ...So check with your techies and there are specific notes available on service.sap.com which will walk you through the required set-by-step implementaiton. Please download these notes from sap oss site.

Is using Excel through Automation with Java possible ?

Hi, I'm currently a Visual Basic developper thinking of moving to a java based RAD technology.
For a couple projects, I need to generate Excel Spreadsheets and present them to the user. I usually do this in VB by using the COM object provided by Excel, instancing it and using the Range([cellname]).value property to write data in the sheet.
Is their any way to do a similar thing in Java, or does this level of comfort come solely by using a Microsoft developpement product (thus more integrated with office) ?
Thanks in advance.

1. Writing java functions in MS Visual J++ 6.0, instead of in MS VB, and then compiling as a COM function has been the only way I've been able to mix the convenience of spreadsheet IO (alas, still in Excel) with the powerful functions we can write in Java.
2. It's ironic java programmers must still build IO interfaces in their IDEs every time they want to write & use a new java function, while MS has made user-written VB functions available to all Excel users (even to MS Word users). Last time I looked, the Star Office speadsheet only allows writing functions in ersatz VB (Sun Basic) instead of in Java.
3. To Sun: Please make java available to the masses by giving us a spreadsheet that runs user-written java functions. The spreadsheet is the most powerful programming paradigm around. Remember when Lotus made a zillion $? You can make more money from Gates's vision than by imitating his products.

Create w boutton in cell excel with vbnet help plzzz

how to create a buttons for ech cell exactly 4 cell (browse) to import a value in cell of excel file (from 4 excel file) imported in datagridview vb net
all the work at vb net and in the datagridview

Hi moOTAZ,
Your question is not clear enough. Please give us some detailed information.
If you want to use VB.NET application to export the data in DataGridView control to the Excel files, then you have many options.
1. Use Excel PIA, loop through all the cells in the DataGridView control, get the cell value you want to export, use Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel namespace to create a new Workbook, add a new Worksheet then save the cell value in this Worksheet. The sample
code here:
Dim xlApp As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
Dim xlWorkBook As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook
Dim xlWorkSheet As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet
Dim misValue As Object = System.Reflection.Missing.Value
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer
xlApp = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.ApplicationClass
xlWorkBook = xlApp.Workbooks.Add(misValue)
xlWorkSheet = xlWorkBook.Sheets("sheet1")
For i = 0 To DataGridView1.RowCount - 2
For j = 0 To DataGridView1.ColumnCount - 1
For k As Integer = 1 To DataGridView1.Columns.Count
xlWorkSheet.Cells(1, k) = DataGridView1.Columns(k - 1).HeaderText
xlWorkSheet.Cells(i + 2, j + 1) = DataGridView1(j, i).Value.ToString()
Next
Next
Next
xlWorkSheet.SaveAs("D:\vbexcel.xlsx")
xlWorkBook.Close()
xlApp.Quit()
2. Use OleDb to insert data into Excel
Check the tutorial in this KB article:
How To Use ADO.NET to Retrieve and Modify Records in an Excel Workbook With Visual Basic .NET
3. Use OpenXML SDK if you don't have Excel application installed on the machine

Using Excel with Visual C++ 6.0 (need a graph control that behaves as much like the one in CVI as possible)

I hate to beat this to death but I was unable to find a
clear answer to this question. Does NI provide Excel control from within
Visual C++ 6.0?
I read that NI supports the ANSI-C library only for Visual C++ 6.0 users:
Thread : "Re: Benifits of using measurment
studio for VC++ 6.0?"
NI REP : drohacek
Quote : "we made the decision to support Visual
C++ 6.0 users only through the ANSI-C interface and not through the Measurement
Studio MFC-based class libraries."
If there is a suggested way of controlling Excel from within Measurement Studio
for Visual C++ 6.0 then I’d love to know it.
If not, can a plain statement be made basically stating that if you want
to control Excel you can’t use a Visual C++ 6.0 environment even with Measurement
Studio support?
With .NET of course you can just decide to have Excel support added during
project creation. CVI can act as an ActiveX server and easily control
Excel just by building off the examples shipped with CVI. I see that
there is support, using the Measurement Studio for Visual C++ 6.0 Project Wizard,
for taking existing CVI projects and converting them to Visual C++ 6.0 projects
or for calling CVI libraries from a .dll from within Visual C++ 6.0. I suppose I could do the work
in CVI and then convert the project but I'm so deeply tied into all my MFC calls that I don't see
how I can cleanly include the CVI libraries into my existing VC++ 6.0 projects.
What I'm really after here is a visual graph control like the one in CVI that I
can use from Visual C++ 6.0. I purchased a 3rd party graph control for use
in VC++ 6.0 that works well but isn't really visual. I mean you can't
enter any values in it until you run the program and fill it out programmatically.
Then you can see which columns are two narrow, quit the program, adjust the
column width of your now empty control, and repeat, until you get the thing
looking the way you want. If I could call into Excel from within Visual
C++ 6.0 the way I do from within .NET
then I could use Excel to hold the table and just read in the values into my table
control at run time. Basically I'd use Excel as a visual development tool
for all my tables.
I do all my coding from within CVI and Measurement Studio for Visual C++
6.0. I'd use CVI for everything if I didn't depend so heavily on certain
outside controlled C++ .dll's. Could you please suggest then what I can
do to get Excel support for Visual C++ 6.0?
Last question :
Is there any plan to ever have a NI table control like the CVI table control for
use in Visual Studio? One that you can
completely set up before you do any compiling?
I imagine that the way Microsoft sets up their environment makes this idea impossible. Otherwise someone would
have come up with a truly “visual” table control before now.

Hello Grant
You can most certainly use Excel with VC++ 6.0. Measurement Studio won't provided you with any classes to talk to Excel in VC++ 6.0. This is because Excel allows control via Automation and you can use its automation API to do anything you need with Excel. This is what CVI uses as well.
You can see this MSDN article on how to set this up. This mentions VC.NET, but it should work the same way.
Here is one that talks about VC 6.0 and Excel.
Here is a code project article about this.
Even with .NET, you have to do thru the Excel Automation support. Excel started shipping with Primary Interop Assemblies (PIA) which are .NET wrappers about the Excel Automation object model. C++ Automation is definetely not as nice as .NET, BTW
See this document for more information about the Excel object model.
I would not recommend using the CVI Excel libraries if all you want to use them for is Excel automation. You will end up creating un-necessary dependencies and go through extra layers that way. You can make calls straight to Excel from VC++ without requiring CVI.
One quick observation about your excel approach. If you decide to use Excel as your table, you might be requiring everyone who uses your application to have Excel installed on their machines. Just wanted to make sure this was acceptable to you.
Have you looked at the Datagrid Activex control, which is one of the common controls that ships with Visual Studio? You can add it to Visual Studio by right-clicking and picking it from the list of installed activex control. If you have not already, you should check it out.
Microsoft has made significant improvements in the number of controls they provide with .NET. They have a Datagrid control that seems to be what you need.
Measurement Studio did add some high level classes for Excel and Word Automation that simplify some common tasks, but these exists for VS 2003 C++ and VS 2005 C++, not for VC 6.0. Underneath, we end up using the same Excel automation classes, so you can easily setup something similar for VC 6.0. Plus you can find alot of references online on how to use the Excel Automation object model with C++.
We currently have no plans in Measurement Studio to create a table control unfortunately. I am assuming when you said graph, you actually meant table, since Measurement Studio already provides a ActiveX graph controls for VC++ 6.0 that is very similar to the CVI graph.
On a side note, VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?
To summarize
- Yes, you can use Excel with Vc++ 6.0 without mstudio.
- Try using the Datagrid Activex control if you just need a table.
- Measurement Studio provides high-level excel and word classes for VC++ 6.0
- Measurement Studio provides a graph control for VC++ 6.0 which is very similar to the CVI graph.
- Measuremnt Studio does not have a table control.
- VC++ 6.0 is really really old. Have you considered upgrading?

Import data from excel/csv file in web dynpro

Hi All,
I need to populate a WD table by first importing a excel/CSV file thru web dynpro screen and then reading thru the file.Am using FileUpload element from NW04s.
How can I read/import data from excel / csv file in web dynpro table context?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Here are the basic steps needed to read data from excel spreadsheet using the Java Excel API(jExcel API).
jExcel API can read a spreadsheet from a file stored on the local file system or from some input stream, ideally the following should be the steps while reading:
Create a workbook from a file on the local file system, as illustrated in the following code fragment:
          import java.io.File;
          import java.util.Date;
          import jxl.*;
         Workbook workbook = Workbook.getWorkbook(new File("test.xls"));
On getting access to the worksheet, once can use the following code piece to access individual sheets. These are zero indexed - the first sheet being 0, the second sheet being 1, and so on. (You can also use the API to retrieve a sheet by name).
          Sheet sheet = workbook.getSheet(0);
After getting the sheet, you can retrieve the cell's contents as a string by using the convenience method getContents(). In the example code below, A1 is a text cell, B2 is numerical value and C2 is a date. The contents of these cells may be accessed as follows
Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
String a1 = a1.getContents();
String b2 = b2.getContents();
String c2 = c2.getContents();
// perform operations on strings
However in case we need to access the cell's contents as the exact data type ie. as a numerical value or as a date, then the retrieved Cell must be cast to the correct type and the appropriate methods called. The code piece given below illustrates how JExcelApi may be used to retrieve a genuine java double and java.util.Date object from an Excel spreadsheet. For completeness the label is also cast to it's correct type. The code snippet also illustrates how to verify that cell is of the expected type - this can be useful when performing validations on the spreadsheet for presence of correct datatypes in the spreadsheet.
String a1 = null;
Double b2 = 0;
Date c2 = null;
                    Cell a1 = sheet.getCell(0,0);
                    Cell b2 = sheet.getCell(1,1);
                    Cell c2 = sheet.getCell(2,1);
                    if (a1.getType() == CellType.LABEL)
                       LabelCell lc = (LabelCell) a1;
                       stringa1 = lc.getString();
                     if (b2.getType() == CellType.NUMBER)
                       NumberCell nc = (NumberCell) b2;
                       numberb2 = nc.getValue();
                      if (c2.getType() == CellType.DATE)
                        DateCell dc = (DateCell) c2;
                        datec2 = dc.getDate();
                       // operate on dates and doubles
It is recommended to, use the close() method (as in the code piece below)   when you are done with processing all the cells.This frees up any allocated memory used when reading spreadsheets and is particularly important when reading large spreadsheets.
          // Finished - close the workbook and free up memory
          workbook.close();
The API class files are availble in the 'jxl.jar', which is available for download.

Error while importing data from excel to forms

Hi,
I am working on Oracle forms 10g, and I'm supposed to import data from excel sheet to forms.
While the user enters the data,sometimes after entering a particular word he/she hits the alt+enter button.
As a result the data appears in two lines in a single row
So,when I try to import the data it's not importing the data in a right manner.
S0,I want to replace this linefeed and carry with five spaces.
Eg:The user instead of entering Geekpedia enters Geek
pedia
in the excel sheet.
Now when I import this in the forms I want it to be imported as Geek Pedia.(5 spaces between Geek and pedia).

Maybe you can consider save excel as .csv files and then you can load them as flatfiles to external table in OWB.

Excel with contents in web dynpro for ABAP application

Hi Experts,
I have excel file (example "http://xxxx/test.xls") with contents in remote system. I want to incorporate this excel file into my web dynpro application. For this I used Officecontrol UI element and set the following properties for Officecontrol
1. datasource : binding with context attribute DATAS(xstring)
2. document type : ms_excel
I wrote code the following code in WDDOMODIFYVIEW method.
data :   content TYPE xstring,
           url TYPE string VALUE 'http://xxx/test.xls'.
CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
EXPORTING
    text           = url
IMPORTING
   BUFFER         = content .
wd_context->set_attribute( name = 'DATAS' value = content ).
while running my application, I getting excel without contents and with one message "SAP IOS". Please suggest how to display excel with contents in view of my application.
Can any one help me.....
Thanks & Regards

I think you are overestimating the power of the SCM_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module. By supplying a URL as the value of the input text, it isn't going to magically go read the content from the remote location and convert that to a binary string. It is going to take whatever value you supply in th importing TEXT parameter convert that to binary. In other words it is literally converting the string http://xxx/test.xls to binary. You will need some other mechanism to read the content from the remote location into ABAP memory before you can process it. You will need to use the CL_HTTP_CLIENT class or call some sort of web service to retrive the content.

Internal Table to Excel with Column Header line

Hello everyone,
I need to download Internal table data to excel with a column header line.
My Code is as follows:
TYPES: BEGIN OF y_hdr,
        head(30) TYPE c,
        END OF y_hdr.
Data: t_hdr TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF y_hdr.
Fill internal table t_adrcdata
fill the header table t_hdr
    CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
      EXPORTING
        filename                      = C:\test.xls
        filetype                        = 'DBF'
    IMPORTING
      TABLES
        data_tab                        = t_adrcdata
       fieldnames                       = t_hdr
     EXCEPTIONS
       file_write_error                = 1
       no_batch                        = 2
This code gives me a row with column headers.
However they are all truncated after 10 chars.
The truncation is independent of column data length. Data could be of length 2,5 or 40 but the header always displays upto 10 chars.
Keeping the filename as test.xls, when I download it in ASC format instead of DBF the headers are of proper length.
What could I be doing wrong?
I know this topic has been discussed before but my question is pertaining to DBF Format download. The reason I chose DBF format is because it downloads the data in DB format and does not give in to Excel formatting.
FOr example in ASC format:
1, A field of type Char(12) used to get downloaded into excel without the leading zeros. 000012345678 --> 12345678
2. Date in format dd-MMM-yyyy in a char(11) field used to get downloaded to excel in dd-MMM-yy format.
When I chose DBF, this issue was resolved. However, the column headers got truncated at 10 chars.
Please feel free to recommend any other way of downloading to Excel and preserving format if this method is incorrect/ there is a better way.

Hi,
Take 'ASC' format for file type.
But when you declare your internal table to pass for FM you have to create all the fields with char.
Example:
data: begin of it_exl occurs 0,
        bukrs(04) type c,
        belnr(10) type c,
        buzei(03) type c,
end of ut_exl.
You need to manipulate your date format and other stuff before appending to this internal table.
Thanks,
Deepak.

Access of undefined method/property through reference with a static type Class

I get the following error: (it's not word for word but you get the idea)
Error: Access of undefined method getStatus through reference with a static type Class.
Here's what's happening in the code. I'm trying to create a User class that is instantiated at the start of my app. I want the User class to have properties like mainStatus, with helper methods like setStatus etc. Pretty simple.
so on my HardDisk I have my flash_working folder with all my flash projects. I created my class file/package under the directory com.mypackage
package com.mypackage
    import flash.display.*;
    public class User extends Sprite
        public var mainStatus:int;
        public function User()
            trace("User Created!");
            mainStatus = 0;
        public function setStatus(status:int):void
         mainStatus = status;
    public function getStatus():int
        return mainStatus;
Ok, so far so good.
now I created a new .fla file under the root of /flash_working/. The class file is in /com/mypackage/User.as
in my .fla file I have:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
var i = User.getStatus();
trace(i);
That's all the code I have. Could someone please explain why it's giving me that error?
If I try to access the public var mainStatus through user.mainStatus that gives a similar error saying:
Error: Access of undefined property mainStatus through reference with a static type Class.
Thanks for any help!
jef3189

the public getStatus() function that you created needs to be referred to through an instance of the class.
So:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
var i = myUser.getStatus();
trace(i);
Also, an aside. You can create a getter/setter for status, to avoid having to do the function as such.
package com.mypackage
    import flash.display.*;
    public class User extends Sprite
        public var mainStatus:int;
        public function get status():int
            return mainStatus;
        public function set status(value:int):void
             mainStatus = value as int;
          public function User()
            trace("User Created!");
            mainStatus = 0;
And then, you can call it as:
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
trace(myUser.status);
EDIT
I just noticed that you made the variable public as well, which means you can access it without getter/setter or function.
import com.mypackage.User;
var myUser:User = new User();
trace(myUser.mainStatus);

Is there a way to import data from excel -when one of the columns in excel is hyperlink column?

Is there a way to import data from excel - so if a column is hyperlink - the whole data will move to the list (text + link of the hyperlink column)?
keren tsur

Hi,
According to your description, you want to export excel which contains a hyperlink column to SharePoint list.
Refer to the following steps:
Open the Excel, insert/create the table.
Now click on any cell of table and go to the ‘Design Tools’.
Click on the Export and then ‘Export table to SharePoint List’.
You will see a popup where you need to provide the URL of SharePoint site, list name and description.
Then click on next, On the next screen you will see columns with data types which are going to create in SharePoint list.
Now click finish and wait until the operation gets finished. You will see that list gets created in SharePoint site with the records.
Here are two links, you can use as a reference:

Convert/Import TDMS to Excel

So I have some LabVIEW code which logs to TDMS just fine. I installed the TDMS Excel Add on to Excell 2007 and it imports the TDMS just fine and it looks good.
What I would like do do now is instead of just having that TDMS file, I would also like to have the XLS equivalent as well. As if I imported the TDMS in Excel, and then went to save the workbook as XLS or XLSX. So I wanted to programatically import the TDMS file, get the active workbook from Excel, and then programatically save the active workbook as XLS, or XLSX in the same directory as the original TDMS.
I'm having problems with the first step of my plan. I see here there are some details about how to call the TDMS import using ActiveX but when I use it I get an error. Calling ShowAboutDlg or ShowConfigDlg work just fine, but when I call the Import it I get a "An unknown error occured: 0x80004003" which I believe is a invalid pointer.
Attached is the VI I was using to try to import a TDMS file. Saved in 8.20, running TDM Importer 3.1.0.25, with Excel 2007, on XP SP3. Thanks.
EDIT: The VI is pointing to a TDMS file which comes with LabVIEW 2009, this path may need to be changed.

Yeah sorry forgot that I used that OpenG VI, attached is another version which doesn't use it for those of you not on the OpenG bandwagon.
I've been using this VI for a little while now and it's worked great on several machines. But recently I've started to see problems where I get an error 97, LabVIEW: Null Refnum was passed in as input.
This happens for me coming out of the property node ITDMAddin. I probed the reference going in and its value is 0, with the variant data also of value 0. Any ideas on how this could happen or what can be done.
I changed the COMAddIn propety node from Object to Description and the string is "National Instruments TDM Importer for MS Excel" So that makes me believe that I am getting the reference to the AddIn but for some reason the Object property returns a value of 0.
EDIT: Okay I think I figured it out, if Open New Instance is TRUE for the Open Automation it works fine. Not sure why but it fixes it, a new version with the fix is up.
