Windows 7/8.1 Excel import issues

I'm having similar issues as other posters and there doesn't seem to be an answer
I'm using Office 2010 on XP, Win7 and Win8.1
the files to import are print spool files (fixed width) with lots of columns of numbers
The only time the file imports correctly is in XP
Problem #1 - on an Windows 7 box, I can import the file just fine but any formulas created don't work.  Any ideas why?
Problem #2 - on Windows 8.1, when I go through the text import wizard (Step 2) the column lines move as I scroll through to create the columns.  Why wouldn't they stay static where I created them?
Thank you for any suggestions!
Could this be an Excel patch from MS for some reason???

Hello ,
Thank you for your question.
I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue.

  • FDM Excel Import Issue - Data not loading.

    I cannot get an excel mappping table to load to FDM. I am working on the Entiy dimension. I noticed a few things when trying to trouble shoot this. If you delete a record, the excel file will load that one entity back to the mapping table with the changes from the excel file. Also, if I delete the table and load a new mapping table with excel it will add the first record. The only thing that changes on the new load is the data key. I could not find anything in the Oracle forum on this.
    When you manually load this data you do not add the sequence number, which seems to be always zero , the data key, which seems to be incrementing itself some how(but not sequentially) , and the partion key and dimname , which appear to not change. I was assuming that the issue was in the way I was adding this other data. I am obviiously new to FDM, so any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

    I am facing similar issue.
    I am trying to map ICP Entries using an excel file.
    I have made 2 mapping (explicit) entries, manually and exported it in Excel and then added all the Mappings in the same file, in proper format. when I am importing, I am not getting any error but the mapping is not getting updated and the new entries are also not getting added. so Ideally no Change in the tDatamap table.
    Environment details: FDM Version 11.1.1.3 is getting used. Target App is Essbase 11.1.1.3. able to connect to Essbase, no issues with connectivity.
    Has anyone face this issue.

  • IMPORT issues: Works with iMovie 3 but not iMovie 6 ???

    Okay, still trying to get my import issue resolved.
    I have a SONY HDR-HC3 DVmini.
    No problems with iMovie 3 on my Powerbook.
    iMovie 6 on my MDD will let me control the camera, but the screen stays BLUE with no IMPORT.
    My buddy thinks it might be a Quicktime issue.
    He said to download Quicktime Pro, that might resolve this issue.
    I can copy the iMovie 3 file to my machine with iMovie 6 and do the editing, just not the importing...

    Hi
    Can be so much.
    Often Camera has to be connected to Charger/mains during Capture.
    An majority is a faulthy - badly connected FW-Cable (USB don't work at all)
    My list on this
    *NO CAMERA or A/D-box*
    Cable
    • Sure that You use the FireWire - USB will not work for miniDV tape Cameras
    FireWire - Sure not using the accompany USB-Cable but bought a 4-pin to 6-pin FW one ?
    • Test another FW-Cable very often the problem maker.
    Camera
    • Test Your Camera on another Mac so that DV-in still works OK
    • Toogle in iMovie pref. Play-back via Camera (on<->off some times)
    • Some Cameras has a Menu where You must select DV-out to get it to work
    • Camera connected to "charger" (mains adaptor) - not just on battery
    Does Your Camera work on another Mac ?
    Sorry to say it is to easy to turn the 6-pin end of the FW-cable 180 deg wrong.
    This is lethal to the A/D-chip in the Camera = needs an expensive repair.
    (Hard to find out - else than import/export to another Mac ceased to work
    everything else is OK eg recording and playback to TV)
    Connections
    • Daisy Chaining most often doesn’t work (some unique cases - it’s the only way that work (some Canon Cameras ?))
    Try to avoid connecting Camera <--> external HD <--> Mac but import directly to the Mac then move
    the Movie project to dedicated external hard disk.
    Mac
    • Free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? Please specify the amount of free space.
    (Other hard disks don't count)
    I go for a minmum of 25Gb free space for 4x3 SD Video - and my guess is 5 times more for 16x9 HD ones
    after material is imported and edited.
    SoftWare
    • Delete iMovie pref file may help sometimes. I rather start a new account, log into this and have a re-try.
    • Any strange Plug-ins into QuickTime as Perian etc ? Remove and try again.
    • FileVault is off ? (hopefully)
    Using WHAT versions ? .
    • Mac OS - X.5.4 ?
    • QuickTime version ? (This is the heart in both iMovie and FinalCut)
    • iMovie 8 (7.1.?) ?
    • iMovie HD 6 (6.0.4/3) ?
    *Other ways to import Your miniDV tape*
    • Use another Camera. There where tape play-back stations from SONY
    but they costed about 2-4 times a normal miniDV Camera.
    • If Your Camera works on another Mac. Make an iMovie movie project here and move it
    over to Your Mac via an external hard disk.

    Hi Bengt W, I tried it all, but nothing worked. Your answer has been helpfull insofar as all the different trials led to the conclusion that there was something wrong with my iMovie software. I therefore threw everything away and reinstalled iMovie from the HD. After that the exportation of DV videos (there has not been any problem with HDV videos) to my Sony camcorders worked properly as it did before. Thank you. LKN 1935

    in addition to Bengt's excellent '9 yards of advice' ..
    camera set to 'Play' , not rec/computer/etc.?
    camera not on battery, but power-line?
    did your Mac 'recognize' this camera before...?
    a technical check.
    connect camera, on, playback, fw-connected...
    click on the Blue Apple, upper left of your screen ..
    choose 'About../More..

    If so it has to be Mac OS Extended formatted

    Thanks for all your suggestions. What I learned is that I had a software problem. I had something called "Nikon Transfer" on my Mac that was recognizing my Canon camcorder as a still camera and was preventing iMovie from working properly. After uninstalling Nikon Transfer and doing a reboot, everything worked great.
    I never liked the Nikon Transfer software anyway--I guess I'll get a cheap card reader and use that to transfer photos in the future.
    *No Camera or bad import*
    • USB hard disk
    • Network storage
    • File Vault is on

    The problem was the external backup hard drive that is connected, you need to disconect the external drive before the mac can see the video camera.

  • UCMDB Excel import - update/delete relationship

    Hi, is any solution to update or delete a relationship between the object in Excel import? I created one (excel import), but there are wrong way in the relationship, so I want to change/update or delete all wrong, and create the good . Anyone have any ideas?

    Hi,
    Do you mind telling us which Excel version are you using? Which file are you using as data source? Excel, access or other? I tested in my environment, but I can't reproduce your issue.
    Would you like to share us a sample data source through OneDrive if possible?
    On the other hand, I recommend we follow this link to re-create the connection to test:

  • Import Issue with Attributes

    Hi everybody,
    during import of approx. 16.000 records I am facing an issue concerning the attributes. The input file is an Access database, which was exported from another repository. Now, I am using Import Manager to re-import this file into a new repository. The taxonomy and the allocation of attributes in this taxonomy are the same. However, when I import the data, some products have wrong attributes attached to them with wrong values. I already tried to do a two-step import (first product data, then attributes). The same problem here. In the Access file all records are correct. Any ideas?
    Best regards

  • Duplicate Video Import Issue

    Hello,
    I am running PPRO CS6 (6.0.3) on Windows Vista
    I am having a duplicate asset import issue. Let me explain...
    I have a couple of Premiere Pro project files with multiple sequences in each. In each of the project files I have the same source video files imported as the some of the sequences in each of the project files reference the same source video file.
    So here it was is happening...I have a project file with sequences 001-025 in them and I have have another project file with sequences 026-050. I have 25 sequences per project to keep the project sizes smaller and more manageable so my system doesn't choke.
    Sequences 014 and 015 in the first project file both reference "Video01.avi" which is located on my external F: drive. I want to import sequences 027-030 from the second project file which both reference the same "Video01.avi" file on the same drive.
    I know PPro is intelligent enough to know when importing assets from another project file that shares the same assets as the project you are importing into, it knows to only import the dependent assets which are not in the project file you are importing into. I have done this countless times and PPro has correctly only imported the assets it needed.
    However for some reason when I am trying to import the above mentioned sequences from one project into another it is bringing in a duplicate copy of the source footage necessarily. I can't figure out why it is doing this. The sequences it is importing both reference the identical file on the same drive, etc. And I am using the "Import Selected Sequences" option.
    Thank you,
    Shane

    I think I have solved my own issue. As stated above when I was trying to import sequences from another sequence it was brining in a dup copy of the same clip in the sequence. I was able to successfully have it not do that.
    What I realized was happening is that even though the source footage video file is identical in each project file, when I opened it up the clip in the source monitor I had different IO points set for each version of the clip in each project. PPro I am assuming imported the second copy to preserve the IO points on the second version of the clip that was being imported.
    I simply cleared each set of IO points on each reference of the clip in the project file and I was able to import the sequences I wanted without bringing in an additional copy of the source clip. So now I just have one copy of "Video1.avi" in my project file instead of multiple.
    Hope this helps someone in the future who may be experiencing a similar issue.

  • DTW--  How to Import  Issue for Production

    Hi ,
             How do i import Issue for Production Through DTW.
    Thanks & Regards
    somi mishra

    hello,
    why do you want to use DTW to issue for production ? You could use backflush as issue method so that you can skip issue for production job. If you have issue for production batch job which it means you want to add all the qty of RM issued to production one times and all at onces for more than 10 PO, I think it is better to use addon. You create an excel template and export the data to be txt file, the txt file imported to the issue for production form using the addon. I just compare this situation with the client request in long time ago. they request fast and not manual sales order creation from quotation. just to compare it to your situation but need your detail explanation.

  • Pavilion dv5 - 1217AX with Windows 8 - multiple booting and crashing issues

    I have a Pavilion dv5 - 1217AX with Windows 8 operating system. It was upgraded from Vista to windows 8 last year and it worked really very well for about 1 year. Here are the issues I am facing these days
    1. When powered on - Caps lock and Num lock LEDs keep flashing twice and the sequence keeps repeating - I checked the error code on some forums and it sounded like BIOS issue so I flashed the BIOS F38 again (SP46501) but it didn't help. I also thought it could be a memory issue so I removed the memory module and cleaned the slots and fixed the modules again but no luck. I also tried running the laptop using only one module, tried both the modules one by but no changes in error code. Then I thought it could be a toy bettery issue so replaced the toy batter that fits on the motherboard but no luck. I have also tried booting up removing the laptop battery pack but no luck.
    So how does it boot now? - Once powered on I keep getting Caps lock Num lock LED flashing issues every time. Then I power off using power on/off button on laptop around 15 times or more then the laptop somehow boots up. There is no fixed pattern, sometimes it boots after 15 attempts, sometimes 50 attempts.
    Whats happenes after booting? - Sometimes the screen goes completely blank without any error message on the screen. Sometimes Windows 8 crashes and laptop restarts, when it restarts I never see LED flashing issues (surprising). It crashes when I am watching some videos or playing some games, so looks like ATI Radeon driver issue (driver is 8.970.100.7000 for HD 3400 display card).
    Let me know if there are any suggestion to fix the botting and crashing issues faced.

    Hi Expertit ,
    At first sight ,seems to be a boot issiu.Did you thry this?
    Booting into the Windows 8 setup, select “Repair your computer” in the bottom part of the window, then “Troubleshoot” and “Advanced options”. Here I was given a good reminder of another cool Windows 8 feature. If you have a restore point created you can go back to that working copy of the OS without losing your data.
    So the first thing you will want to try is the Automatic Repair.
    If that fixes your boot problem, you had it easy and go on to create a restore point for another time you are out of luck. If Windows is unable to fix your issue, read on.
    Go back to the Advanced options and choose the Command Prompt. Going for the next easiest way to fix the problem, enter the following four commands into the prompt:
    bootrec /fixmbr
    bootrec /fixboot
    bootrec /scanos
    bootrec /rebuildbcd
    After receiving a success confirmation. Close the CMD window and restart your PC.
    If you are booted into Windows, excellent! If not, let us know , so we can try some more solutions.
    2.If your video crashes , it is probably wrong Catalyst settings.Right click on screen , open Catalyst control settings , set it to high (Radeon) performance.
    Expecting your next post.

  • Strange import issue .. no longer works in 2.6 or Beta 3

    Strange import issue.
    I use LR-2.6 everyday but have only played around with the LR-3 for a limited amount of time so the other day I decided check it out and tried to import a handful of RAW(canon) files on a SDxc-8g card via a USB card reader. I set it up to copy and convert to DNG, apply a few keywords and Metadata but when I tried it acted like it imported the first image and then froze. Card reader lights stopped blinking and just stayed on, program task bar doesn’t show any progress, not even for the first image. I then went to the folder that I was going to have the images copies to and it contained a file of the first image, but there is no indication that LR-3 even created it and it doesn’t show up in the catalog. When I tried to close out LR-3 is popped up the “in the middle of a task warning” so I just closed the program and tried it a couple more times to no avail.
    So I though o well I will just open up LR-2.6 and import them from there, guess what now LR-2.6 does the exact same thing!!
    I thought maybe my card reader was a POS but I was able to drag all the files to a new folder on my desktop and import them from there, nope. Tried rebooting a couple times, even opened a new catalog to test with, in both LR-2.6 and LR-3 and neither will work..
    I am stumped any ideas?

    Thank you for everyone's assistance
    I actually figured out what the problem was, like most issues it comes back to operator error, it seem I had inadvertently chose a "rename file on import" template that I had set up to name the files based on a custom fill-in field in the Meta Data, I normally only used that template when I was exporting images that had been completely edited, so being these images were new imports that field was blank, hence it would import the first image and then do to " don't import subjected duplicates" being checked it would just stop the import process.
