Unable to import Excel workbooks into Power BI

I've enabled Power BI and am trying to add a couple of Excel workbooks but consistently keep getting the following message:
Correlation ID: 9E7B1927-2105-E21B-DC45-07990C7190A3
Date and Time: 04/02/2014 03:29:24 AM (UTC)
"please try refreshing your browser"
Anyone else encountered this problem and resolved it?
Thanks

What is your file size? It might be too big, I believe there is a 10MB workbook size limit.

Importing excel data into oracle tables

Hello gurus,
Importing excel data into oracle tables..
I know this is the most common question on the thread ...First, i searched the forum, i found bunch of threads with loading data using sqlloader, converting excel into .Txt, tab delimited file, .csv file etc....
Finally i was totally confused in terms how to get this done....
Here is wat i have
   - Excel file on local computer.
   - i have laod data into dev environment tables(So no risk involved, but want to try something simple)
   - Oracle version 11.1.0.7
   - Sqlplus and toad (editors)
Here is wat i like to do ....i dont know if its possible
    - Without going to unix server can i do everthing on local system by making use of oracle db and sqlplus or toad
   SQLLOADER might be one option...but i dont want to go the unix server for placing files and logs and stuff.
Wat will be best and simplest option to do?? and wat format will best to convert from excel into csv, or txt or tab delimited etc.....
If you suggest sqlloader, any code example will be greatly appriciated.
Thank you so much!!!

Imran,
This is increadible option in toad!!! It works absolutely sweet!! I have toad 9.7 version. IT works great. Thank you so much!!You are welcome :)
Well i have further discussion on this ....this option is great if you doing in staging or development area. What if your doing in prod?? If you automating the sqlloader then how do u do it?? I think we still need to stick with traditional approach of laoding data by making use of SQLLoader right ?? If m wrong please correct me.well, in our case, we do have access to a custom schema in prod where we create the staging table and load the data from datafiles.
try this:
load data
infile 'C:\dest.csv'
into table dest_table
fields terminated by "~" optionally enclosed by '"'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(name,
owner_nm,
description_column,
UPDT_DT DATE 'MM/DD/YYYY')
{code}
you can get more info about sql loader and your error here:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96652/ch05.htm
http://www.allinterview.com/showanswers/53766.html
And one more quick question ...i found an example of control file , in that i see .dat format file. Is it a data file ?? can i try that option ?? But in excel i didnt see to convert the .dat format file.
Any thoughts ???
It is same as a delimiter text file.
steps to create a .dat file (from a excel file):
1. Insert a column between two columns and populate it with the delimiter (in our case, it is ~)
2. Save the file as unicode text.
3. Open the file in text editor and remove all the tabs (find an replace with blank)
4. Save the file as "DEST.dat". Select encoding as UTF-8 while saving.
5. Your .dat file is ready.
Regards
Imran

Import excel graphs into illustrator

When I try to import the graphs from excel into Illustrator the text converts into a gibberish. Is there any proper way to import excel graphs into illustrator?

Obviously it helps if you have got the same fonts in the Excel and the Illie files. But I believe that this is not the whole answer – or at least there is a nice difference between gibberish and utter gibberish.
For example if you try to open a .docx or .xlsx file in TextEdit you will get totally mind-boggling utter gibberish, whereas .doc and .xls files usually behave more or less normally even if there is a font conflict.
Now Auntie Illie is very fussy about her fonts, so do what dandidotcom says first and if you still get utter gibberish even with the right fonts, try downsaving the Excel file to .xls.

Is it possible to publish Bex Excel workbook into portal?

Hello,
Is it possible to publish Bex Excel workbook into portal?
Thanks

Hi,
Publishing BW workbook in portal can be done in two ways.
1)Using RRMXP transaction
/people/arunkumar.sampathkumar/blog/2006/08/09/publishing-bw-workbooks-into-portal
2)Using information broadcasting in portal and publishing into the KM folder
For information broadcasting - you have to install the precalculation server in the portal server.This is needed for precalculation of the workbook.After installing the precalculation server start the corresponding service.If you execute transaction "RSPRECADMIN" in BW, it shows the status of precalculation server, Whether it is running or not
After doing this. Assign the BEX role inthe portal to the user.Now from this screen you can broadcast the BW workbook
Also you can create an iview for the same.

The import facility of Excel or Word Document is only on a PC system of Dreamweaver.
File >> Import >> Excel Document
File >> Import >> Word Document
For mac system I understand this facility isn't there. What can you do about this?
1) Get hold of a PC and download a trial version of DW and import the file(s) and you are done;
2) Ask a friend to do it for you;
3) Post your excel file online and some nice guy like Nancy, john or Murray will help you out.
Good luck and let us know if this has given you some more ideas to explore.
Good Guy

Import Excel 2007 into SQL Server 2005

Hi
When importing Excel 2007 data into sql via Import wizard:
choose "Microsoft Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB
Provider" as the data source in SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, then click Properties, switch to the All tab, input your excel file path to the Data source field and input "Excel 12.0" to the Extended Properties field and then click OK to follow the wizard.
I get the following error:
Error 0xc0202009: Source An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005
Error 0xc02020e8: Source Opening a rowset for failed
Exception from HRRESULT: 0xc02020e8 (Microsoft.sqlserver.dtspipelinewrap)
I have recently upgraded to Vista and did not have this problem in XP, does anybody know how to fix this, as I really need to get the data into SQL server 2005 (without using SSIS)
Thanks!

Hi Jin
This is not a problem in SSIS, this is a problem occuring when I try to import data via the Import/Export wizard in Management studio.
This is the exact error I get:
Error 0xc0202009: Source
- <table_name>[1]: An OLE DB error has occurred.
Error code:
0x80004005
Error 0xc02020e8: Source

Check that the object exists in the database.

Many thanks!!

Import EXCEL Worksheet into NUMBERS

I would like to import old excel worksheets into NUMBERS

In addition to what James already said, iOS Numbers has fewer fonts available than even the OS X version of Numbers, so the iOS version is even more likely to have to substitute.
Even if you go to one of the Office compatibility suites like Documents to Go or Google's QuickOffice, you may run into that problem on an iOS device - iOS apps simply do not support the number or variety of fonts available on an OS X or a Windows machine.
If you stick to simple fonts at the office (Arial, Calibre, Times) you will usually have few problems when you move the file to an iOS device.
Also note that things like color coding in cells, and other cell formatting in Excel may not survive the transition to Numbers in iOS (and especially not going back yet again to excel in Windows), so best to keep formatting simple as well.
The reality is that any Tablet OS is a compromise of a true desktop/laptop computer OS, and the more complex the desktop application, the more likely the tablet version has to make major compromises in compatibility. If you keep your desktop documents as simple and straightforward as possible, then you'll increase the ability to go back and forth from tablet to desktop.

How to import excel list into drop down menu in acrobat pro DC

Does anyone know if an excel list of 527 items can be imported into a drop down menu in adobe acrobat DC? I am on a mac v10.10.

I would convert the Excel worksheet into a tab delimited file. Edit that file in a text editor, not Word, into a list that meets the formatting for the array for the setItems. method. Then add the code to use that array to set the items for the drop down field. So you have something like:
var MyItems = new Array("One", "Two", "Three");
this.getField("Dropdown1").setItems(MyItems);
You can then cut and paste this into the JavaScript console, highlight text and execute the text. Or cut and paste the code into a document level JavaScript.

Importing excel data into ZAM 7.5 using SQL2005

Hi,
I am running ZAM 7.5 and have about 6500 workstation records in inventory. I have an excel spreadsheet that has been maintained for several years with some demographic info in it such as Site, Department, Building, etc for about 4000 of those workstations. I would like to get that information into the ZAM SQL2005 database. Can I import the data into the SQL database directly or is there a tool to do it? There are no purchase records tied to this data so using the purchase record import does not seem like an option. Any advice?
Thanks,
Jay

Help with Importing Excel Data into Formatted Tables

This is my first post, here, so please be gentle!
I am a relatively new user of InDesign CS4, and I am creating a 70-pg manufacturer's price book. A very large portion of each page is going to be size and price information imported from a large Excel spreadsheet.
I have created the table format that I'd like to use for each page, but the trouble comes when I import the Excel data into that table. For some reason, when I import, it all dumps into one cell. Would it be best to import as an unformatted table, and then format the table each time, or is there a way to simply import the data into my pre-formatted table? I've seen how the former is done, but the latter seems much easier (...although that could be my inexperience talking).
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks so much,
Laura (V1500)

Thank you both so much for your time! This is exactly what I needed.
Cheers

Unable to import .mp4/.ts into Premiere Elements 3.0

I've captured footage from my PlayStation 3 using this device: http://gamerzone.avermedia.com/game_capture/live_gamer_portable
The device saves the footage in a .ts file.
I've tried to get information on the file using a program. If there's a better way to do it, please let me know:
When I try to import the file into Premiere Elements 3.0, I get an error message: "File format not supported/One of the necessary components may not have been installed."
I've converted the file into an mp4 format with this program: http://ftp2.avermedia.com/C875/C875_utility_v1.0.0.9_20131029.zip
Information on the file:
But this did not solve the problem.
Ideally, I would like to avoid converting the video file, if that would take up a lot of time. If I can just upgrade Premiere Elements, that would be the most ideal solution.
Please let me know if any additional information is needed.

Akvod
I am able to import a .ts file into Premiere Elements 10, 11, and 12 Windows 7 64 bit.
But, not so, for Premiere Elements 4, 7, 8, and 9.
And, the reason why your .mp4 conversion did not work would be in accord with the fact that you used AVCHD as the video compression, and AVCHD video compression was not supported by Premiere Elements until version 7.
If you do decide to move to version 12, please note that there is a dramatic difference in workspace between 3 and 12. So, go the free tryout of 12 before any purchase.
You could try to convert the .ts to H.264.mp4 and not AVCHD (MPEG4 AVC/H.264).mp4 and see if that works for you.
