Unable to read file - opening a html file with excel

Hi all,
I have the next issue:   I have developed a report on HTML format, however when I export this one (to excel) I save the file with a 'xls' extension, however, (in excel 2007), when I try to open the file I get the error "Unable to read the
file".
can you help me with this issue?

Hi,
Did you create a PivotTable report in the file? As your description, the HTML format could be used correctly in Excel 2007. Did you get the other error message?
Such as,Unable to read file.
When you click OK,   you receive the following error message:
Errors were   detected in '<var>filename</var>.xls', but Microsoft Excel was   able to open the file by making the repairs listed below. Save the file to make   these repairs permanent.
PivotTable report   '<var>report_name</var>' on   '[<var>filename</var>.xls]worksheet_name' was discarded due to   integrity problems.
Please try to use the workaround:
Turn off AutoRecovery when you work with any workbooks.Click Excel button>Excel options>Save>Uncheck AutoRecovery
Following this, if the issue exists, I recommend you fix the issue the following KB:

  • Open my html file and cannot edit it

    When I open my html file from Flash, in view design all I get is a grey box with the Flash symbol in the middle and no html tools.
    I want to link some of my buttons but if I go into view live I get html tools but I still can't access them to make links.
    How do I get my html page so that I can make my links?
    Forrest

    Your next button can still do that.  But it has to be programmed within Flash.  Flash files are not natively handled by Dreamweaver.  You have to export them in order to place them on a website within Dreamweaver.
    The only way that Dreamweaver can do this for you is if you create a button in Dreamweaver which does this action for you outside of the Flash area.  Then this button can link to another page or Flash file.  But if the button resides within the Flash file then it must be edited with Flash.

  • Help Needed in opening a HTML File from swing application

    Hi,
    I am opening a HTML file in Internet Explorer from my swing application.
    I am using the code given below
    private final static String WIN_FLAG = "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler";
    private final static String WIN_PATH = "rundll32";
    String cmd = WIN_PATH + " " + WIN_FLAG + " " + url;
    // url is HTML file Path
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec( cmd );
    The HTML file is opening up,but it always opens behind the swing application,that makes me every time to maximize the HTML file after it being opened up.
    I want to open it in front of the Swing Application.
    Any Help Please ?
    - Manikandan

    Check your Application's JFrame properties (may be ur Frame is set to be in top position ,always),and also check running your application in some other OS.

  • How do I Open an HTML file for iOS?

    How do I open an HTML file for iOS using acrobat?

    This is a forum for Adobe Reader for iOS. Acrobat doesn't run on iOS. You need to run it on a Mac or Windows computer. In Acrobat, you can choose File > Create > PDF from Web Page to do what you want. You cannot do that in iOS.

  • Opening an HTML file stored locally

    Hello fellows,
    Is it possible to open a locally stored HTML file using  Acro javascript?
    If, yes, how to make Acrobat/Reader open the HTML file only once, when the rights-enabled PDF is opened for the 1st time?
    Thank you for your responses in advance!

    Reader cannot open HTML files even manually. You can use JavaScript in Acrobat to convert an HTML file to PDF, but only from a privileged context: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/11/Acrobat11_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.89.164.html

  • Recently opening an HTML file on my computer makes firefox attempt a search for the entire file name in the search engine online, how to do i correct that?

    when opening an HTML file recently my Firefox automatically opens up a yahoo search screen and the file, the entire file name and route for the file is searched for online. I don't even use Yahoo Search i use Google but that doesn't mater have to open the file manually with searching it on on the open screen to read it because it's trying to search for it online instead of reading it from where i clicked on it.
    I.E.

    Please read this article about restoring bookmarks:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Lost_bookmarks
    As far as your passwords are concerned, I don't think there's anything you can do. But for the future, you can use the following add-ons to avoid any future loss:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2848/
    or
    http://www.xmarks.com/
    Both are good.
    And a simple way to import your bookmarks (since you already saved it on your desktop as html) is:
    Bookmarks / Organized Bookmarks / Import and Export
    Good luck.

    Looking forward for your kind suggestions......1) Did you write that code? If yes, proceed to 2). If no, I charge 150 euros/hr. Let me know when you want me to start.
    2) Post the code for a program that opens a text file with the following in it:
    hello world
    and prints the contents out using System.out.println().
    3) Modify the program in 2) to determine if the file contains the word "yes". Post the code.
    4) An html file is no different than the text file in 2).

    When I click open, regardless of what software I use to do so: OpenOffice, IE, FF, notepad, wordpad - only HTML code is seen. This is what I assume to be because of what "jscher2000" mentioned - the URL is converted into a HTML.txt file.
    Notably, if I go to the website on IE and open the HTML file through it, it works no problem. I have tried disabling addons.
    I have been looking for fixes & addons to go around this problem, but none so far. First time posting!

  • Safari 5.1 does not open local html files

    Safari 5.1 does not open local html files (with .htm or .html extensions). It fails on files that previous versions of Safari opened. Firefox continues to open them. Any suggestions?

    Turn this option off:

  • Open Local HTML file in app browser?

    Hi,
    We have a question, we would like to link to a local HTML file form within a DPS article, we need the HTML file to open up in the in-app browser; we cannot use a web content overlay for this particular feature. We are able to achieve this easily with content from an online source by creating a Go To URL link with the website in the URL section.
    Can this be done form the HTML resource folder and can this be tested in the adobe content viewer?
    Or even better can we easily link to a local folder using the Go TO URL with a local file path? If so what would this be?
    Thanks

    Yes, you can open an HTML file in an in-app browser by adding the HTML file to the HTMLResources.zip. Create a button with a Go To URL action that looks something like this:
    HTMLResources/HTML_Local/index.html
    Make sure that you create your HTMLResources.zip file properly and upload it to the folder. You can test this in the Adobe Content Viewer on either the iPad or the Desktop as long as you preview the folio (not the article or layout).
    Basically, you use the same technique to link to the HTML file that you use to link to PDF files. For details, see the DPS Tips app > Advanced Overlays > Linking to PDF Files.

  • Edge project won't open. HTML file is empty. HELP!!

    I've been working on a project for nearly a month now and when I opened the .an file today it says it can't fine the associated html file even thought it's in the same folder. So I opened the html file in my text editor and it's BLANK. All the code is gone. Same for the edge.js and edgeActions.js files. I can try and piece together the html file from other test files I have, but the stage class (EDGE-205613315) is dynamically generated I assume. So I couldn't just come up with that.
    Anybody have a way to get the .an file to rebuild the html and js?
    Please??

    There's really nothing to look at. When I was talking to Adobe, I realized that the .an file is showing a file size of zero bytes, so as far as I can tell, the project erased itself when I was saving and restarting. When I open the html file in Edge, it looks like a brand new file - there aren't any elements, symbols, actions or anything. Blank canvas.
    Before I left work yesterday, I altered the html file by adding a header and footer div above and below the <div id="stage"> code. The page was running fine in my browser with those divs intact, and the .an file appeared to be saving just fine. Can adding that code have corrupted it somehow? Seems really odd to me that it would totally wipe all the associated files. But if that's an issue, then I need to find another way to build my full page around the edge file.
    Thanks for trying to help.

  • Open an html file inside spry collapsible panel

    Greetings,
    Using CS5
    Does anyone know the CSS code/possibility of opening an html file inside the Spry panel?
    I've tried the following code:
    .CollapsiblePanelContent {
        background-image: url(lookoutgraph.html);
    Is there a better CSS element for calling up an html file?
    For what it's worth...the html file I'm tring to open uses a <canvas> tag. When opened by itself, the html file has no problem opening and displaying the canvas data.
    Much Thanks!

    With the exeption of images, to add external content to a document you will need to make use of either serverside or clientside code.
    Have a look at the SpryHTMLPanel here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/htmlpanel/html_panel_sample.html
    Otherwise, please supply a link to your site so that we can come up with alternatives.
