Upload xls file issue

HI Experts , i am uploading data from xls file , the problem is that if the xls file is in edit mode , the system goes in indefinite loop or hang state , is there any way or function module to determine whether the xls file is being edited or open .
Thanks in advance.

are you using Function Module for this? If yes, just uncomment the exceptions, problem will be solved, i suppose.

I am able to do the uploading if the file is in .CSV format and not .XLS format....
there are lots of forums on SDN for the same....but at the end there is no solution provided.....
experts kindly solve it this time...thanks in advance

Hi,
It is not possible to upload an xls file because it will be having some binary characters. better to go with .csv file format.

Upload XLS File, Loop through rows query a DB

What I would like to do is enable the user to upload an excel
spreadsheet with one column and many row of IP's. Then put the ips
in a list or array and loop through the list and query a table to
get the IPs that match the list.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

We have some similar apps except that, instead of uploading a
file, the users copy and paste the column into a text area. Then we
do this:

<cfset
hscnumbers=Replace(form.hscnumbers,chr(13)&chr(10),",","ALL")>

<cfif find(",", hscnumbers) gt 0 and right(hscnumbers, 1)
is ",">
<cfset hscnumbers = left(hscnumbers, len(hscnumbers) -
1)>
</cfif>
And then we have a list to send to the db.

Upload xls file in application server

Dear ALL
I have a requirement in which I need to create Excel file on SAP
Application Server using OPEN DATASET command. As I have to run the program and create the file in background mode, I can't use 'WS_DOWNLOAD' or 'DOWNLOAD' functions. When I can create the file with .xls addition on the application server,
all the fields in the file appear in the same column. How can place them in different columns as one field in one Excel cell?

Hi,
Yes you can try doing like,
DATA: c_tab TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab,
      c_ret TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
itab1-f1 = 'AA'. itab1-f2 = '01'. APPEND itab1.
itab1-f1 = 'BB'. itab1-f2 = '02'. APPEND itab1.
itab1-f1 = 'CC'. itab1-f2 = '03'. APPEND itab1.
itab2-f1 = 'ZZ'. itab2-f2 = '26'. APPEND itab2.
itab2-f1 = 'YY'. itab2-f2 = '25'. APPEND itab2.
LOOP AT itab1.
    CONCATENATE itab1-f1 itab1-f2 INTO objbin1 separated BY c_tab.
    CONCATENATE c_ret objbin1 INTO objbin1.
    APPEND objbin1.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT itab2.
    CONCATENATE itab2-f1 itab2-f2 INTO objbin2 separated BY c_tab.
    CONCATENATE c_ret objbin2 INTO objbin2.
    APPEND objbin2.
ENDLOOP.
LOOP AT objbin1.
    MOVE objbin1-line TO objbin_final-line.
    APPEND objbin_final.
ENDLOOP.
And then you can use open dataset and transfer statements to download internal table data in AS.
Hope it helps

Uploading flv files issue

I upgraded to DW CS3 and now when I try to upload a flv file,
it says it can't complete it and the file isn't updated. I go back
to my old version of DR8 and it works just fine. When I synchronize
in CS3 it will tel me that files need to be updated, but when I try
to do it, it says it can't complete. Why? This doesn't happen EVERY
time though which makes it even harder to figure out. I tried
deleting the version on the server, but it still won't upload the
new version. How am I supposed to update my site and get the new
files up? I make a lot of changes to the site, then synchronize
it.That is the only way to be sure I haven't missed some files. Can
someone tell me why it works ok in DW8 but not in CS3? Is there a
setting somwhere I need to change? Thanks for any help.

Welcome to our community, Leslie
I'm thinking that what's happening here is the LMS simply
doesn't recognize that the .FLVs should be included. So I'm
wondering if the following workaround would work for you. When you
insert the FLV reference, code an absolute path. For example, lets
say the LMS serves the Captivate up and the logical path is
http://www.somesite.com/training/CaptivateMovie.htm.
Maybe you store all the .FLV files in this locaton:
http://www.somesite.com/training/videos.
So you would then code the link to your FLV to use that explicit
path of
http://www.somesite.com/training/videos/MyVideo.FLV.
I'm not 100% sure this will work, but I can't really fathom a
reason it shouldn't.
Cheers... Rick

How to open XLS file without Authentication

Hi All,
We are using SRM and we use SAP EP for accessing the SRM Screens. When we are creating a shopping cart there is a option for uploading files and we upload xls file there. The issue we are facing here is whenwe view the shopping cart, there is a link for the uploaded XLS file. When we click on this file the portal ask for user id and password, when we click on the cancel button the xls file gets opened. But whereas the userid and password screen is not appearing for the word document.
Is there any settings which needs to be done for bypass the userid, password screen to open the xls file.
Thanks and Regards,

I think the only way you're going to be able to do this in
Flex is to process the file on the server side using something like
the Perl Win32::OLE module to open the file from a Perl script, and
access the data, place it in an XML structure, and deliver it to
Flex, all via HTTPService.
Here is a little sample code to get you started:

Hi,
Check whether path ur providing to the open data set stmt is correct or not in debugging mode.
* File upload to internal table from UNIX Directory
    IF NOT p_i1file IS INITIAL AND NOT p_path IS INITIAL.
      CONCATENATE p_path p_i1file INTO v_file.
      CONDENSE v_file.
      OPEN DATASET v_file FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE MESSAGE v_msg.
      IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
        WRITE: / 'INPUT FILE CONTAINS NO RECORD :'(010), v_file.
        DO.
          CLEAR tbl_input.
          READ DATASET v_file INTO tbl_input.
          IF sy-subrc NE 0.
            EXIT.
          ELSE.
            APPEND tbl_input.
          ENDIF.
        ENDDO.
* Close Input File
        CLOSE DATASET v_file.
      ELSE.
        WRITE:/'Error uploading file: '(008),v_file.
        STOP.
      ENDIF.
    ENDIF.
It should work.check the sy-subrc value and file value in debug mode.

Webutil - issue with uploading text files with client_get_file_name

Hi,
I'm using webutil client_get_file_name to upload files from the client machine to the server.
It works fine for xls,pdf,doc files etc. but not for txt files it seems.
It doesn't display any error at all either.
Has anyone seen this type of issue before?
Kind regards,
Tom
Windows XP
Forms v10.1.2.0.2

Hi Sarah et al,
The code that I'm using to upload any file type format is:
vfilename := client_get_file_name('c:\',file_filter => 'All files (*.*)');
it works for doc/pdf/xls/rtf/csv etc.
but not for text files i.e. .txt
Also, could someone tell me how to open a .msg (Outlook message) file
as it gives the output:
'Cannot read item' upon the opening of the Outlook application.
I'm using the following to try and open it:
CLIENT_HOST( 'cmd /C start '||p_filename);
Your help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tom

Upload a .xls file in web dynpro abap

Hello,
I want to upload a .xls file into a internal table in web dynpro abap (Netweaver 7.31).
The file is not delimited, is not an csv file.
In my view I have an fileUpload UI Element with the attribute data is un attribute type XSTRING and the following function module are not in my system:
HR_KR_XSTRING_TO_STRING
ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
How can I upload the file with this format?.
Thanks in advance.
Xavi

Unless the files are zipped together into one archive file, you have to do them one at a time. Furthermore with the normal browser based fileUpload UI element, you must do them one at a time and the user must manually select each one (browser security limitation).
If you are on 7.01 you can use ACFUpDown to perform multiple file uploads, but there is no file dialog or directory scan so file selection is difficult.
If you are on 7.02 you can use ACFUpdown and it has a multiple file open/save dialog.
If you are on 7.01 you could use FlashIslands to perform the multiple file upload. I have a tutorial and source code sample for this on SCN.
If you are on 7.01 you could also use ACFExecute to run a batch script on the client side that zips all the files and then upload the zip archive.

Urgent: Issue with the size of an xls file generated from a rtf template

Hi all,
I have a template.rtf
In BI, when I get the file in excel format and save it, the size of the report is 32 MB. When I just "save as" the same report, without changing anything, the size of the report is 8 MB.
Do you know how to get directly the report with the size 8 MB or would you have some guidelines to avoid this issue.
Thank you in advance,
Sonia.

Thank you Kurz for your answer. I'm going to try to be more precise.
Actually I'm not in EBS. I generate the output (xls format) direclty from BIP.
The DB of my application can't be requested directly, then I use HTTP request.
From BIP, I launch the report choosing excel as output - the template is an rtf template.
I have been requested to open or save the xls file that I save (32 MB).
I open the excel file, save it again and the size of the file is now 8 MB.
Regards,
Sonia.

ITunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc. I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue. It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide

iTunes Match has stopped uploading - every file errors and says waiting - I have tried to delete the files and use other formats etc. I have had the service since Day 1 and NEVER had an issue. It didn't start until the Delete from Cloud switch to Hide from cloud - the files that do not upload show grayed out on my other devices.

Have you confirmed that you successfull purged iTunes Match by also looking on an iOS device? If so, keep in mind that Apple's servers may be experiencing a heavy load right now. They just added about 19 countries to the service and I've read a few accounts this morning that suggests all's not running perfectly right now.
