Vertical text in Excel output

Hello,
I am designing a report with Excel output using BI Publisher. The problem i am facing is that the text direction (vertical) in the RTF file does not remain the same in the Excel output. Do you have any solutions/workarounds for this problem?
Thank you.

Hi Radu,
I'm afraid, I'm not able to do it, somehow although excel has the option to rotate text by any angle, it does not seem to accept the text direction that RTF does..

  • Build Array and Output Values to Text or Excel File

    I know this is a simple question but I need some help. I'm reading a DC voltage in LabVIEW a while loop. I want to store all the read values into an array and export that array as an text or Excel file. I had a VI that I build before for this but I cannot seem to find it and I can't remember how I did it before. Any help is appreciated. I think I can do the exporting part but I do help with building the array (storing all the data values).

    I run into a problem while using the "Write to Text File Function". Initially I took about 60 measurements and wrote to a text file. That works but I increased the amount of measurements to be taken to 600 and when I did that the output in the text file are all Chinese letters (or that's what it seems like). Is this because I'm writing too much data?
    When I use the "Write To Spreadsheet File VI" to write the measurments it works fine for the 600 measurements. The problem with this is I cannot insert any text. Using the "Write to Text File Function" I inserted some text before the measurements and "end of lines", to format the data. Attached is a screenshot of my VI.

  • Converting Excel Output to Text File (Text(MS-DOS)) in oracle 6i

    I have been able to save Excel Output to Text File (.txt) using OLE. However, I need to save it as TEXT(MS-DOS) specifically due to certain formatting issues.
    Kindly suggest some solution.
    I need it very urgently.
    Thanks!

    Hello Sandy,
    does this mean that you created an Excel file using OLE and named it *.txt?
    And what do you mean by saving as TEXT(MS-DOS)? A csv file?

  • Number stored as text (in jsp report with excel output)

    Hi
    I created a jsp report for excel output. I see that the numbers are left aligned with a green traingle on the top of each cell. Was just wondering how can I resolve this and have my numbers displayed as numbers - right aligned and with no green triangle. Is there some setting I have to make explicitly so that numbers appear as numbers in excel output?
    Thx!

    Hi Sasidar,
    In Excel right click the column select format cells and then select  the format as text which is general by default.

  • XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
    Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    Do anyone have a solution for this
    Thanks in advance

  • Excel output (with graphics)

    Hello,
    I am using Oracle reports 10g 1.2.0 version.
    We need to generate oracle reports in Excel format ("real" Excel, not delimited text) with tabular data and
    also graphics.
    I used desformat=spreasheet. But is is giving only one worksheet.
    I've found the "Output to Excel with Oracle9i Reports"
    demo but the Excel template in the demo is very simple and doesn't have graphics.
    Then I've found the following:
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/excel_output/result/excel.jpg
    a) The above site has excel output with multiple worksheets.
    which is similar to what we need but I wasn't able to find related source (excel_emp.jsp).
    b) Using jsp if we can ahieve multiple worksheets with grapahics, please provide us examples.
    c) http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/excel/index.html --This site is not working to find the demo.
    Could you please help me in this?
    Thank you for any help.

    carla,
    the example you mentioned uses the JSP web source that is only available in oracle9i reports.
    in theory you can create any excel output. it is just a matter of creating the template and then adding the reports tags to populate it with data.
    you could then use reports' URL engine to produce files from this output.
    there are certainly ways to do it, but they are only available in oracle9i reports (9.0.2 and higher)

  • How to display Excel output in browser instead of client desktop

    Hi,
    Its looks like this might be the customization issue please have a look at the OSS Notes 457497 and refer to the questions 2, 3 &  4 may be you can get the idea (Specially 4).
    Why are some texts not printed at all?
    Answer:
    Which texts are printed depends on the Customizing settings of purchasing.
    Go to Customizing for purchasing.
    Choose "Messages -> Texts for Messages -> Define Texts for <Purchasing Document>". Choose "Print Document <Purchasing Document>". Select "Texts for Document Items" and add a new entry.
    You must specify a value for the print sequence in the detailed screen for your new entry.
    Let me know in case of any.

  • Problem with Excel output format

    I am creating a report in XML Publisher (not standalone). I am facing some problems could anyone please help me to figure out the issues.
    Is it possible to have all three output format (PDF, HTML & EXCEL) exact (same aligned) only by creating a single RTF Template? I am facing the problem with Excel output format the output format of excel is taking excels cell formatting.
    Example Numeric fields --> Right Aligned, text fields --> Left Aligned
    One more issue with excel is -ve(negative) values are getting displayed in red and in brackets like ($13) (with red color).
    Our client want excel output on priority.

    Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
    I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
    1) What about the negative values?
    if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
    2)How can we align header or data?
    Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
    3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
    Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
    Please help.
    Many Thanks,

  • Excel output file size is large - How to make it small in size?

    Hi,
    An Excel file out put is too large when I get it from application. If I copy and paste the same content in an excel sheet , the size is too small.
    How can I fix this?
    Excel output size from application - 12.4 MB - 4500 records
    copy paste file size - 827 KB
    Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2
    BI Publisher Desktop Version - 10.1.3.4.2
    Thanks in advance.

    BIP generates an XHTML output with mime-type xls and thus Excel is invoked when it is downloaded. XHTML is text and therefore it is lenghty. When you copy and paste it in Excel you save it in binary format and compress.
    My suggestion is create an excel template instead of rtf. Not sure if this is possible for EBS (open a ticket with Oracle Support to confirm you can use excel templates in EBS the version you have).
    Reference:
    http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/entry/real_excel_templates_i
    In this way your output will be a truly binary file with size much more smaller.

  • Xml publisher excel output

    Hi.
    I have the rtf-template for xml-publisher report with excel output.
    There is the table there. I need format the table according appointed requirements (in output excel file). For example, width of the columns of the table must be fixed width. How I can define width of the columns with xsl language in rtf-template?
    [email protected]
    Best regards

    UP
    There is positive progress there.
    For example, I can change height of the heading row of the table by this way:
    <xsl:attribute name = "height" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute>.
    These xsl tags I put it in the text field of the rtf template between <?split-column-header:GROUP?> and <?VALUE?> tags (There are dinamic columns in the table).
    But <xsl:attribute name = "width" xdofo:ctx="block-container">40mm</xsl:attribute> tags work incorrect, not as I need (Some cells is spanned in the height and division of the text is by the word).
    May be I need some others tags? Or I need different object or property?
    I want to note that xml-publisher's tags <?split-column-width:@width?> and <?split-column-width:width?> are not working in excel output (or I use it incorrect).
    I am really need your help. How I can define exact width of dinamic columns?
    Thanks.

  • Excel Output is being displayed as HTML in the browser

    Hi All,
    I am using PeopleSoft XML Publisher 5.6.2 to generate an Excel report using RTF template. The report runs successfully.
    However, when I click the Output file link in the View Log page of process scheduler, the file is being displayed as a HTML page, though the extension of the file is .xls.
    Also when I try to save the file by using 'Save Taget as' option, the browser prompts me to save the file as 'mhtm' file and not 'xls' file.
    The following is an extract from the output file.
    <html>
    <!-- Generated by Oracle XML Publisher 5.6.2 -->
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
    <title>IM Top 10 Surplus &amp; Deficit Locations</title>
    After doing some research on Internet, I found the following blog post(dated back in 2008) to describe my situation and a workaround to the problem.
    http://peoplesofttipster.com/2008/04/16/xls-xmlp-output-opening-in-browser-not-excel/
    http://peoplesofttipster.com/2008/04/18/xls-xmlp-output-opens-in-browser-workaround/
    Workaround described in the above blog post is to update the charset to us-ascii replacing UTF-8. This seems to work. But with limited file processing capabilities of peoplecode, this workaround is not a simple solution.
    I also verified the mime-type mapping in the web.xml file in the webserver. Please find below the .xls mime-type mapping in the web.xml file.
    <mime-mapping> <extension> xls </extension> <mime-type> application/vnd.ms-excel</mime-type></mime-mapping>
    Question:
    1.How do I force the browser to open the excel output file using either Excel plugin or Excel Application instead of displaying it as HTML page?
    2.If not the above, how can I force the system to promt the user to save the file as Excel file instead of mhtml?
    Additional details :
    work enivronment
    PeopleSoft FSCM 8.9

    Hi Alex,
    Thanks for your suggession.
    I have two OAF versions and i found the xml publisher version from the below java file
    $OA_JAVA/oracle/apps/xdo/common/MetaInfo.class
    in both 11.5.10 and 12.1.1 OAF versions i am seeing the below line of code
    public static final String VERSION = "Oracle XML Publisher 5.6.3";
    when i login to the application and went to the About this page option available there
    in 11.5.10 i got to see that the version
    is XML Oracle XDK Java 9.0.4.0.0 Production
    in 12.1.1 version
    XML Oracle XML Developers Kit 10.1.3.130 - Production
    But as per your seggession from the MOS document 736897.1, i came to know that it is an issue in 5.6.3
    Can you please tell me how to find out my xml publisher version in different EBS versions.
    I am using Office 2007.
    Finally,
    in the document i can see that
    Applies to:
    *BI Publisher (formerly XML Publisher) - Version 11.5 to 12.1 [Release 11.5 to 12.1]*
    Information in this document applies to any platform.
    Means this issue is not fixed even in 12.1.3.
    To resolve this issue,do we need to do the manual image setup like the way menioned in the document 736897.1?
    Thanks
