Upgrading from Excel 97 to Excel 2000

Recently, I upgraded from excel 97 to excel 2000.
Since then, all the Labview vi's I've used to work with excel are no more executable (broken wire) on my computer.
However when I opened these vi's on another computer (also with excel 2000) there are no errors.
How can I make these vi's work on my computer?
Are there something missing during excel 2000 installation? How can I check that?
I'm using Labview 5.1 under Windows NT
Thanks

If you are referring to the "Write table to XL.vi" try doing the following:
1) Go into the block diagram and open up the vi "Open Excel and make visible.vi"
2) Right mouse click on Automation refnum (The label is titled exel._application)
3) Check to see that under the area "Select ActiveX class" that excel is
selected.
If not you will have to browse through your directories and locate
excel8.olb for
excel97 (I don't know what it is for excel 2000).
4) After that, go to the property and invoke nodes and reconnect the wires.

  • Best practice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?

    Does anyone know the best pratice for Smartview when upgrading from Excel 2003 to Excel 2007?
    Current users have Microsoft Excel 2003 with Smartview 9.3.1.2.1.003.
    Computers are being upgraded to Microsoft Excel 2007.
    What is the best pratice for Smartview in this situation?
    1. Do nothing with Smartview and just install Excel 2007.
    2. Install Excel 2007 and then uninstall and reinstall Smartview
    3. Uninstall Smartview, Install Excel 2007, and then install Smartview
    4. Somthing else??
    Thanks!

    We went with option 1 and it worked out fine. Be aware that SV processes noticeably slower in Excel 2007 than 2003. Many users were/are unhappy with the switch. We haven't tested SV v11 yet, so I'm not sure if it has improved performance with Excel 2007 or not (hopefully it does).

  • 3 range parameter query to Oracle data base from Excel 2000

    A user bas been trying to setup parameter queries into an Oracle
    DB. He normally used MS query and written VBA code to
    modify the query for daily or adhoc updates.
    With Excel 2000, he wanted to take advantage of parameter
    queries linked directly to cells in a spreadsheet.
    He was able to get single or two level parameter queries
    directly linked to the spreadsheet to run, however every time he
    went to a
    three level parameter query it crashed while returning the data
    to Excel.
    The error windows read: Microsoft Excel [Oracle][ODBC] with no
    other details.
    Is there a limit on the number of "levels" for parameter
    queries.
    The user was able to build and see the results of a three level
    query in MS Query, but every time he tried to return the data to
    Excel, it crashed.
    Jeff

    This is an Microsoft Access problem. When you initally connect
    to an ODBC source database Access caches the connection and does
    not ask for connection information on subsequent linked table
    accesses. This causes a problem if you request information from
    tables belonging to different users during the same Access
    session. The way to avoid this error happening is to create a
    user with access privileges to both users being used by the
    Access front end. When you connect to Oracle use the new user
    and you should be able to connect to all the linked tables. It
    may also be worth copying the Access databases to one single
    database and trying the migration that way.

  • Upgrading from fp 1600 to fp 2000

    I came across this http://www.ni.com/white-paper/3975/en/ when searching for relevant topics.  Is there a way to do what is shown in this tutorial in Measurement and Automation?  We're upgrading all of our fp 1600s to fp 2000s and 2010 and would really like to avoid rebuilding the directory and applications.  If anybody knows of a way I can do this, your advice would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks!

  • Excel file error after upgrade from 2010 to 2013

    Hi there,
    I did the upgrade from 2010 (Enterprise) to 2013. The excel files are not opening giving error.
    ULS Log: "Unexpected error when trying to access service settings in the configuration database. Make sure the proxy for this service application is a member of the default proxy group for the active web application. Error = ExcelServerWebServiceApplication.Local:
    Could not get the web application associated with this context. This indicates that the Excel Server service is not properly registered or provisioned.."
    Question : Do I need to create New Excel Service Application separately on SharePoint 2013 Server?
    I followed this link for upgrade
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj839719.aspx but it doesn't say anything for Excel SA.
    Note: I have plan to configure separate Office APP Server to give user access the documents on iPad/iPhone. Should I need to do any configuration related to this error on Office App Server?
    Please advice.
    Thanks,
    Khushi

    Hi Khushi ,
    Yes, you need to create New Excel Service Application separately on SharePoint 2013 Server. Due to  only the following service applications have databases that can be upgraded when you upgrade from SharePoint
    Server 2010 to SharePoint Server 2013:
    Business Data Connectivity service application
    Managed Metadata service application
    PerformancePoint Services service application
    Search service application
    Secure Store Service application
    User Profile service application
    Attaching and upgrading these databases configures these service applications. Settings for other services will have to be reconfigured when you upgrade.
    Reference:
    Services upgrade overview for SharePoint Server 2013
    For configuring Office Web Apps Server , you can refer to the blog:

  • Excel layout changed after EHP5 upgrade from EHP4.

    Hi All,
    We have just finished the EHP5 upgrade from EHP4 for ECC 6.0 for our production system. BUT we noticed that The standard layout, (also known as Dynamic List Display) has been chagned in EHP5 compare to EHP4.
    This is affected us as we have lot of macros enable for the excel files.
    Request you all to help. Is there any sapnote, anyway we can resolved this issue.
    Thanks

    Hi Markus,
    Thanks for reply.
    I not sure how i can attached file over here? Is there anyway to attached files in the forum?. I have the before and after image of excel file.
    But the position of the data which is downloaed in the excel sheet has been changed after upgrade. For example ,Before upgrade the column named "Description" in the production plan report was in the second column i.e. B where as after upgrade the "Description" column in the production plan report is in the first column i.e. A.
    I mean the postion of the data changed in after upgrade. Therefore macro which are enable are not working anymore.
    New Format Example
    Production plan          
    Description                        Material                               Sales doc.
    IRB 2600 M2004                 3HAC020536-018              104861
    IRB 2600 M2004                 3HAC020536-018              2BT0615486
    OLD Format
    Production plan                    
                                          Description                    Material                               Sales doc.
                                          IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               104861
                                          IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               2BT0615486
    Hope this above will help to make it clear.
    After checking this message ... the output example given above seems to be not showing the way i itend to... But in above example in the old format the Description column was at column B instead of column A after upgrade.

  • Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Mav does not support Microsoft word or excel.  What's up with that?

    Just upgraded from Safari to Maverick, but pop-up informed me that Microsoft Word or Excel will not run on OS X Mavericks.  What's up with that?  Should I click accept or ok?
    I assume this is the latest Mav OS...so the version would be 10.9.2?  It was suppose to be a free download from Apple.

    If you do not want to spend a lot of money on buying the latest Office you can get most or all of what you need from LibreOffice which is free. http://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-fresh/

  • Any workaround for using Excel  2000 in 2004s ???

    Greetings.
    1. We have Excel 2000 and Windows 2000 standardized in the company and not upgrading to the Windows XP/Vista  in the immediate future.
    2. Since the new 2004s BI tools do not support downloading to Excel 2000, we are looking for other options such as continue using  3.5 query designer.  But from the 3.5 Query designer "Display Query on the web", Publish to Portal or Bex Broadcaster links not working or erroring out.
    Greatly appreciate your tips and suggestions for this scenario.
    Thanks.
    PK

    Hello PK,
       Do not try to find a workaround  to use excel 2000 with NW 2004s. This may not be useful as Excel 2000 is not supported by SAP for NW 2004s.
    But you should be able continue using BW 3.5 tools. Please post the errors that you are getting so that members can help you.

  • Problem for Report Generation Toolkit for excel 2000

    Hi all,
    Now I am Developing my program with Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.0 and Labview 7.1.
    In my computer I am using Excel XP, and there is not any problem. But when I build to
    a exe file, and use in a computer with Excel 2000, it didn't work.
    And I try to check the source file in this computer, I found that there any some connection
    error. And this is caused by the active X class. As I know Excel 2000 is using Microsoft Excel
    Object Library 9.0, but i cannot find it in the list of active x. So it is using Microsoft Excel Object
    Library with a very old verison. So in the property node there are missing functions, such as the
    UsedRange in _Worksheet in the Excel_Get_Range.vi. However, In VBA, I can find the 9.0 Library.
    Is it the problem of 9.0 library? How can I solve the problem? How can I upgrade the library to 10.0?
    Thanks.
    Regard,
    Ryan

    Hi Mike,
    Since my program is for all the staff in office, everyone may use it.
    I cannot call the whole office to upgrade the excel to XP.
    And I think Report Generation Toolkit is alway support Excel 2000,
    since the old version of it is not support for Excel XP.
    Regard,

  • Report Generation Toolkit with Excel 2003 and Excel 2000

    Hello,
    I'm using the Report Generation Toolkit to generate an Excel report from an Excel template.
    The "NI_Excel.lvclass" is included in the "source" section of the application builder options.
    I create an exe file on  a PC where Excel 2003 is installed. On a Notebook, where only Excel 2000 is installed, the application crashes at the generation of the report:
    I guess the problem is the different version of Excel but I don't know. On the developer PC with Excel 2003 it works fine.
    In this document it's only talked about different Word versions.
    How can I use the Report Generation Toolkit here?
    I'm using it that way:
    Regards

    Oh, it seems that the Report Generation Toolkit "only" supports Excel XP/2003/2007.
    I think, that's the problem.

  • Getting short dumps while reading bulky data from excel sheet

    Hi all,
    We have converted our non-unicode based sap system (R/3 4.7, Windows 2003,
    SQL 2000) into a unicode based system recently. We are facing two peculiar
    problems for last few days.
    *Problem 1 - *Whenever we want to upload the data from excel sheet, the
    system throws a dump after reading about 400 entries, while last week the
    same system used to read about 8000 entries in a single go.
    *Problem 2 - *Also, whenever we realease a transport requst from development
    containing a lot of changes, the request will reach the quality system but
    without the changes. but if i ll try to import the changes into quality
    system after generating more than one request containing small small
    changes, they get reflected in QAS immediately. Is there any size
    constraint in transporting a request fro DEV->QAS->PRD.
    Please suggest some ways.
    I am pasting the dump (that I am getting while data uploading from Excel).
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Runtime errors
    MESSAGE_TYPE_X*
    Occurred on
    22.02.2008 at
    13:21:02*
    The current application triggered a termination with a short dump.
    What happened?
    The current application program detected a situation which really
    should not occur. Therefore, a termination with a short dump was
    triggered on purpose by the key word MESSAGE (type X).
    What can you do?
    Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)
    and make a note of the actions and input that caused the
    error.
    To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
    You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer
    termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion
    date.
    Error analysis
    Short text of error message:
    Control Framework : Error processing control
    Technical information about the message:
    Diagnosis
    An error occurred when the system tried to process the commands
    from the Automation Queue on the presentation server.
    There are several possible reasons for this:
    - The installation of the SAP GUI on the presentation server is
    faulty or obsolete.
    - There is an error in the application program
    - There is an error in the SAPGUI or an integrated control
    Procedure
    1. Make sure that you have imported the appropriate Support
    Package, the current kernel, and GUI patch for the release of your
    System
    2. Check whether the error occurs locally on one or a few PCs, or
    generally on all PCs. Note whether the error only occurs for some
    users, for example because of a specific Customizing setting.
    If it only occurs locally, this suggests an installation problem
    with the PC. Check the installation; if necessary, reinstall the
    software. In the dump, search for the SY-MSGLI field, since it may
    point to the cause of the error.
    3. Activate the Automation Trace (in accordance with SAP Note
    158985).
    4.Start the transaction and continue until the screen immediately
    before the dump.
    5. From the System -> Utilities menu, choose Autom. Queue,
    Synchronous Processing.
    The status bar of the GUI displays the text:
    "Automation synchron flush mode on"
    6. If you now proceed with the application, the short dump will
    display the ABAP call that caused the error; the Automation Trace
    will contain the error on the presentation server.
    7. If necessary, load the short dump and trace files on to
    sapservX, so that SAP can analyze them.

    How to correct the error
    Probably the only way to eliminate the error is to correct the program.
    You may able to find an interim solution to the problem
    in the SAP note system. If you have access to the note system yourself,
    use the following search criteria:
    "MESSAGE_TYPE_X" C
    "SAPLOLEA" or "LOLEAU02"
    "AC_SYSTEM_FLUSH"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself, please send the
    following documents to SAP:
    1. A hard copy print describing the problem.
    To obtain this, select the "Print" function on the current screen.
    2. A suitable hardcopy prinout of the system log.
    To obtain this, call the system log with Transaction SM21
    and select the "Print" function to print out the relevant
    part.
    3. If the programs are your own programs or modified SAP programs,
    supply the source code.
    To do this, you can either use the "PRINT" command in the editor or
    print the programs using the report RSINCL00.
    4. Details regarding the conditions under which the error occurred
    or which actions and input led to the error.

    for the 50 millionth time: Excel spreadsheets are NOT databases, you should NOT try to use them as such and NEVER access them using JDBC.

  • Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf

    Page numbers incorrect after conversion from Excel to pdf
    ""This above link (thread:834599) is from a case back in 2011 that claims to solve this problem, but it does not solve this problem. I think that customer only cared about having continuous page numbering, not discrete page numbering per sheet.
    ========================
    I still have this issue in Acrobat XI and MS Office Professional Plus 2010. I keep upgrading to no avail. This regression has resulted in a huge time drain for me. If you fixed it, please explain how I can get my hands on the resolution.
    Previous versions of Excel and Adobe Acrobat enabled flexibility around the "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) token, depending on context and usage. The "# of pages" token could represent EITHER the number of pages in the workbook OR the number of pages in the tab/sheet, depending on how you generated the PDF:
    You could select "Selected Sheets" and then select all or some of the individual sheets in the workbook, and the PDF would honor the discrete numbering of each of the sheets, so the first page of each sheet was p1 and the "# of pages" was the number of pages in the sheet; not the number of pages in the workbook; or
    You could select "Entire Workbook" and the PDF would honor continuous page numbers across all sheets, as a single document.
    Now, it only honors the total number of pages in the workbook, regardless of the method you use to publish to PDF: saving as PDF, printing to PDF, using "createPDF" from Acrobat plugin to Excel's menu ribbon; selecting all sheets, some sheets, or Entire Workbook; automatic First page number or "1" under Page Setup > Page> First page number. (This last option, btw, does restart every sheet at p1, but it hardly makes sense if the total number of pages is still the total number in the workbook instead of the number in the sheet.)
    I spent a lot of time trying each which way that the blog posts recommended and have tried this on multiple versions of Excel and Acrobat now.
    NONE of these time-consuming experiments gave me what I wanted.They all insist that "Page #" of "Number of Pages" (Page &[Page] of &[Pages]) is the total number of pages in the workbook or the total number of pages in the selected sheets combined.
    The numbering are correct in Excel Page Layout.
    The same issue happens when using LibreOffice calc. (Although, I never tested with Libre Office before, so I don't know that it ever worked).
    The workaround now is to create PDF for each spreadsheet one at a time, and then compile them using the Acrobat combine/binder feature. All alternatives are extremely time consuming and tedious. It used to be automatic. This is a major regression that has gone untreated for over a year now, maybe two years.
    My task takes infinitely more time to complete than it did with previous versions of Acrobat. That means that days are added to my project, when the functionality used to enable a quick pdf generation that was ready for review, now I have to do this very manual time-consuming set of steps to generate a draft. As the project has grown and more tabs are added, my pdf-generation task takes that much longer. We require lots of drafts. It used to be easy and fast. Now it is hard and time-consuming.
    In my opinion, the problem is not Excel; it is Acrobat because it was introduced with an upgrade in Acrobat, not an upgrade in Excel. The problem was introduced in Acrobat 9 or 10. Please provide a patch or add-on or something.

    If you are setting up the page numbers in Excel, the resulting PDF would display the the page numbers created in Excel. On Excel 2010 support page, (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/insert-and-remove-page-numbers-on-worksheets- HA010342619.aspx#BM2) is stated the following "tip" which indicates by default Excel 2010 starts numbering each tab with 1. Exel's workaround tip is below - 
    Set a different number for the starting page
    Tip   To number all of the worksheet pages in a workbook sequentially, first add page numbers to all worksheets in a workbook, and then use the following procedure to begin the page number for each worksheet with the appropriate number. For example, if your workbook contains two worksheets that with both be printed as two pages, you would use this procedure to begin the page numbering for the second worksheet with the number 3.
    On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the Dialog Box Launcher next to Page Setup.
    On the Page tab, in the First page number box, type the number that you want to use for the first page.
    Tip   To use the default numbering system, type Auto in the First page number box.
    Also helpful in the same section is the note on viewing page numbers. To see if the page numbering dilemma originates in Excel make sure you are using the Page Layout View see below:
    Hide All
    If you want numbers shown on pages when you print a worksheet  you can insert page numbers in the headers or footers of the worksheet pages. Page numbers that you insert are not displayed on the worksheet in Normal view — they are shown only in Page Layout view and on the printed pages.
    Overall it may be easier not to create the page numbers in Excel but instead create then in Acrobat using the Headers and Footers option in Acrobat.  I hope this helps - it sounds like a frustrating issue you are experiencing.

  • How to call a labview dll from excel-VBA?

    How to call a simple Labview DLL from Excel VBA?
    I have seen examples of DLL calls from VB but does it work the same way for VBA? I have 2000 excel and Labview 8.5. I created the DLL and tried to call it from VBA using the same type of code as in NI's website example(ofcourse its a bit diff with 8.5)
    http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/...
    BUT it errors out when called from excel
    ERROR: The object invoked has disconnected from its client

    You would need to provide more details about the LabVIEW DLL, such as the prototypes of the functions (VIs) that you're trying to call, and your actual VBA code. Specifically, what object you're trying to create. You should also make sure the Run-Time Enginer is installed, as well as any required libraries such as the VISA Run-Time if you're using VISA. Have you made sure to enable the ActiveX server for the DLL?
