Utilization of add-on programs & report

Dear all,
We are working on upgrade project. We would like to review the add-on programs and reports. I know there is some way to check
how long the program/report have not been used. Can anyone provide me the detail?
B. Regards,
Nancy

Hi,
Similar question was asked by someone else in another forum (NW administrator) earlier,like to ask you to execute same steps:-
You can check TRDIR table(se11/se16) and display it. In the next screen once you will get 'Data Browser Table TRDIR' selection screen. There either you put the individual 'add-on programs/reports' name in the 'Name' field & execute it or for all multiple entries execute it.
Once you execute it with the particular Z program or report name then you will get the required details like CDAT(Created on),UNAM(Last changed by),UDAT(Changed On),SDATE(Standard selection screen generation: Date),IDATE(Selection screen generation: Date) etc.
Hope this can help you to get the required info.

XL reporter error-requried COM add-in program for XL reporter has not ben l

Dear All,
I am getting this error could anyone please let me know the solution:
"A requried COM add-in program for XL reporter has not been Loded and prohibuit Microsoft Excel from running.

Hi,
try to use the solution from the SAP note 893307:
XLR - Activation of Other Microsoft Excel Add-Ins
Symptom
When Microsoft Excel is launched from within the XL Reporter application, other add-ins selected in Microsoft Excel's Add-Ins window are not automatically loaded into Microsoft Excel upon start.
Other terms
XLR, Business One, Addins, deactivated
Reason and Prerequisites
When Microsoft Excel is started through Automation (COM), Add-ins are not loaded by default. This is by design and XL Reporter follows this behaviour.
The following is a workaround solution that is avalible in SAP Add-On XL Reporter 2004 SP02 patch 2 and SAP Add-On XL Reporter 2005 SP00 patch 1 and subsequent releases.
Solution
If you need to have other add-ins automatically loaded upon start, a workaround solution is now possible:
In the Microsoft Registry Editor on your client machine, change the following settings in your system registry: in the registry tree underHKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/iLytix/XLReporter/Settings/SBOOEM, add a key with the following name: StartExcelAddins. The key can have two values: the value, 1, which activates other add-ins upon start, and the default value, 0, which leaves the other add-ins inactivated.
Incorrectly editing the registry may damage your system. System registry changes should therefore only be performed by an advanced user who is prepared to both edit and restore the registry. For details about the system registry, please refer to Microsoft Registry Editors help system
if not solve yet, just let me know

Error running XL Reporter: 'a required COM add-in program..' for Excel 2007

I have 2 users running Excel 2007 that can't run XL reporter. They get the message 'a required COM add-in program for XL Reporter has not been loaded'. I have instructions for Excel 2003, but not for 2007. Does anyone know how to resolve this for Excel 2007?

When I look in Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel it reports Firefox as 5.44GB. Could this be true? If so how do I reduce the amount of space it is taking up?

When I look in Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel it reports Firefox as 5.44GB. Could this be true? If so how do I reduce the amount of space it is taking up?

It is quite common for the program size listings to be wrong. To check the actual size of the Firefox installation, you can manually check the size of the Firefox [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory installation directory]. It is is typically around 26-30Mb, and the default location on 32 bit Windows is C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\
There are also a couple of other locations where Firefox stores data, check the size of the following folders as well.
Firefox also stores user data such as bookmarks and passwords in the [[profiles|profile folder]]. It should be inside this folder C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
Firefox stores temporary files in the cache. To find the location of the cache, type '''about:cache''' into the location bar. It should be inside this folder C:\Users\''username''\AppData\Local\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\
The last 2 folders are normally hidden, you may need to set Vista to [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial130.html show hidden files and folders].

Help writing a program that uses Add/Remove programs

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to create a program that will utilize add/remove programs to repair an installation of a program. Specifically I'm trying to write something that will help automate repairs of QuickBooks installations. I've tried using Filemon to figure out what executables I might need to call and I've searched high and low in the forums and Google for help but I'm not getting anywhere. Is there some sample code out there that shows you how to work with the Add/remove programs screen and the programs in it?
Thank you for any help you all can provide me.

[email protected] wrote:
It might be possible if you use the JNI, ** ouch ** That's going to hurt.
but more than likely, Java is a poor choice for the program that you're trying to write.I'll second that. You might want to try C# if you want to write a more Windows-centric program. Its syntax is extremely similar to Java's (I wouldn't say that it was ripped-off of Java, but you could say that probably and not be wrong). But it is a powerful language with a rich library and would interact with the Windows libraries much more readily than java would.

Old version of firefox in add remove programs

When I originally installed Firefox on my machines it was Firefox 11 I have updated to the most recent version Firefox 16 but in Add/Remove programs is still shows Version 11. When I do a scan on my network it still shows version 11 on all my machines. This is an issue because I need to know what the users are using. I have given the users the ability to update their FF and thought they were not doing it. Also there is only one install of FF showing in Add/remove programs..I know others have reported the old and the new versions in Add/remove programs

To confirm what Firefox version is currently installed, see
*[[Find what version of Firefox you are using]]
Alternately, go to Firefox Help -> [[Using the Troubleshooting Information page| Troubleshooting Information]] and look under Application Basics for the version number.
If the only problem is that your Windows Control Panel list of installed programs says that Firefox 11 is installed instead of the actual version, a simple solution might be to simply download the latest Firefox version from mozilla.org (currently 16.0.1) and reinstall Firefox (you can optionally [[Uninstalling Firefox|uninstall Firefox]] first but make sure you do NOT select the "Remove my Firefox personal data" option ... if you do, all of your Firefox bookmarks, passwords, and other profile data and settings will be lost!).

Add on xl reporter nit installing

I installed sap b1 2007 pl 15 client on windows xp system (sql 2005 & office 2007). now whent i login sap, during installation of add on xl reporter, it gives error
run time error '-2147417851 (80010105)

every thing is working fine on other client systems.
Pl help

Is the user that is logged onto the client an administrator? Administrative rights will be required to enable the install to complete.
Try deleting any folders that have created under C:Program Files>SAP>SAP Business One>Add ons>XL Reporter (or something like that!), delete the SM_OBS_DLL under start>Run>%temp% and start up SAP again to re-run the installation

How to backup add-on programs?

Dear all,
How can I backup add-on programs? for example, client 200 to client 800.
Best regards,
Evans.

Hi Evans,
Do you mean copying programs from client 200 to client 800?
If yes, then I'm confused, because programs (reports) are client independent objects. Hence when you e.g. create a report in client 200, the program would be immediately available across all the clients on the server and hence also on client 800.
Similarly changes made also impact all clients.
Is your requirement different?
Cheers.

Add Journal Entries Report - Output to Request Set

Hi All,
I'm trying to create a Request Set for the receivable application
The request set should contains two Programs
1- AR: Journal Entries Report
2- Journal Entries Report - Output
I defined the request set and when i start adding the programs , i selected the first program AR: Journal Entries Report from the list and gave it sequence 10
when i tried to add the other Report "Journal Entries Report - output" i didn't find it in the list and i'm not able to add it
1-Do any one know why this program doesn't appeat in the list ?
2- If i created a copy of this program and gave it other name , this program in the definition doesn't have any parameters although a parameters must be passed to it from the first request AR : Journal Entries report. how to pass parameters from the first program to it
Best Regards

nuppara,
I need to add this report to the request set as it's a workaround to get the output of the AR: Journal Entries Report as Excel - I created a post asking this question also , u already replied to it.
My workaround is like this , the AR: journal Entries Report automatically sumbit the program "Journal Entries Report - Output" based on the parameters that the user select
Print Detail By Account , Print Detail By Category , Print Summary By Account , Print Summary By Category
if i want to to make this report to be an Excel output so i'll have to create 4 templates but won't be able to assign the correct template to it , as the main request AR: journal Entries report calls it automaticcaly, and may run it 4 times
so my workaround was like this
i'll create 4 request sets ,
the first RS will be for example AR: journal Entries Detail By Account, i'll add to it 2 programs the AR: journal Entries Report , and the Journal Entry Report - output -OR a program copied from it with the same design and i'll add parameters to it-
i'll force the parameters of the AR: Journal Entries in this request set to be Print Detail By Account = 'Y' and the other options = 'N' so the report will call Journal Entry Report - output with the parmeter layout= 'Print Detail By Account ' will be displayed as text ... when it finish the request set will run the Journal Entry Report - output -OR the copied program - that i'll assign the correct template and data definition for it, so it'll run and display the output as Excel .
I need to try this solution, but i was not able to add the journal Entries Report - Output to the request set :( and i'm not sure if i'll create a copy from it will be added or not,
and also i'm not sure if this workaround may work , as i know when the AR: Journal Entires report complete it delete the data from the temp table so the 2nd request may work on an empty table , or it'll have a request_id different from the request_id of the temp table so it won't select any row
all of this is just a brain storming to find the solution. :( i'm thinking by a loud voice here :-D
i know it may not work but at least to try it i need to add this report to the request set.

How to uninstall Firefox if Add/Remove programs won't work?

My Firefox is completely unresponsive. I can't get a browser or anything. I just grabbed the application folder and threw it in the trash, because the add/remove program function did nothing. I also cannot download the newest version of Firefox. It tries, but then says, "Your download was interrupted".
How can I make sure I've removed ALL of the old Firefox and what can I do to download the new one?

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!
Thank you.
