XL-Reporter 2005 PL29 - Office 2007

Hi fellows,
I read many postings in this forum which stated that XLR 2005 PL29 does NOT run with MS Excel 2007.
In the posting <XL Reporter with Office 7> by Irina Stanca from Sep. 9. 2007 I found a reply from Mr. Owen Slater which stated that XLR PL29 DOES RUN with MS Excel 2007.
I myself WAS NOT ABLE to install XLR 2005 PL29 with MS Excel 2007 (based on SAP 2005A SP01 PL26)! The error message was <Excel has to be installed. Cannot find Excel.>
At SAP I only could find contradicting information:
1. On the XLR information page: ... XL Reporter currently supports Office 2007 only within the SAP Business One 2005 track.
2. On the download/update page for XLR PL29: XL Reporter currently supports only Office 2003.
Is there any common understanding if or if not XLR is running with Excel 2007?
Maybe there are special settings you have to obey when installing XLR with Excel 2007?
Thank you for any help!
Regards,
Frank Romeni

Btw, you must explain here whether you are using SP00 or SP01 of SAP B1 2005A. The standard and professional edition of MS.office 2007 are compatible or match with XL reporter requirement.

Expoer of web reports to excel(office 2007)

Hi gurus,
for export of webreports to excel (office 2007) the german characters correctly assumed why
i wil great appreciate to you giving your immediate response.

Hi,
I received a response from Metalink. We are using an old version of Discoverer (10.1.2.48.18) and need to install patches to fix different excel bugs that were identified.
Our DBA is out right now so I am not sure when that will be done. In either case, it seems that is the problem. I will, of course, test the issue whenever the patches are installed.
Thank you.

XL Reporter not working for MS Office 2007

Hi
We have SAP B1-2005 with (PL35, XL Reporter 6.80.01), after installing XL Reporter we got the error as Microsoft Excel is required but not installed, for which we had browsed the forums and got the below said solutions
1. Uninstall XLR completely.
2. in SQL Server Studio Management, delete IX MetaDB database
3. Uninstall Office 2007
4. Install Office 2007
5. Open SAP Business One and install XL Reporter.
After doing the above said process we are still getting the same error.
Please help us to resolve.

There is no problem running XLR with MS Office 2007.
There is only one exception: XLR does not run with MS Office 2007 in the Small Business Edition!
To handle the security problems you have: You have to allow macros in Excel, since a great part of XLR is realized as macros in Excel. And perhaps you have to set the security in Excel to a less secury level than you have.
Sorry, but currently I can't tell you the exact security settings in MS Excel 2007 I use to run XLR. Since they differ from the settings in MS Excel 2003 and the machine I have installed MS Officew 2007 is crashed.
To solve your problems maybe you should set the security to the lowest level. If XLR is running set the security stepwise to a higher level until there arise problems. This is just an idea, since I can't tell you the exact settings.
Hope it helps!

The Report Generation Toolkit does probably not support Office 2007 yet. This is because the Office ActiveX interface used to change with each version and the Report Generation Toolkit comes with specific libraries for each of the Office versions it supports. With the wrong office version the Report Generation Toolkit VIs are normally broken and can't run without some more or less involved modifications.

Does the Report Generation Toolkit support Office 2007?

With the hot-out-of-the-oven Office 2007, Microsoft has done a complete overhaul of the Office environment that we all have spent many years learning to perfection (well.. almost). Lucky those who got a head start as part of the Office Beta program.
Well, NI claims that the current version of the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit supports "Microsoft Office 2000 (Word, Excel, and Graph) or later" and therefore literally also the new Office 2007.
I doubt that the ActiveX API has remained unchanged when developing Office 2007, so let's use this thread to uncover the experience you have with calling Office 2007 applications using the LabVIEW Report Generation Toolkit.
Anyone???

We are currently working on a maintenance release for the Report Generation Toolkit to support Office 2007. You can install the current toolkit with Office 2007, but you will have some problems. If you copy the four LLBs from the Compatibility\Office 2003\vi.lib\addons\_office folder on your Report Generation Toolkit CD to the corresponding vi.lib\addons\_office location in your LabVIEW folder after installing the toolkit, things will work for the most part. But you won't have 100% compatibility until the maintenance release is done.

Problems with Downloading BI Reports to Excel in Office 2007

Hi,
I've created reports using the BI Publisher plugin for Word 2007 and deployed these through Apex. Users that have Office 2003 installed get to download the file without any compatibility issues. Those users on Office 2007 get a warning as follows:
"The file you are trying to open. 'filename.xls' , is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now? "
The file will open and save, it's just annoying getting this message each time. There aren't any problems when downloading the report in other formats.

This is a known issue.. It is a "Fix" from Microsoft, to make sure folks know that the file is NOT a true Blue XLS style file.. My office just went through this and it can be adjusted, but involves a registry setting that they DID NOT want to impliment..
Please see the attached url:

Report alignment and header not proper while modifying using MS Office 2007

We have an RTF template designed using old MS Office version (1997 - 2003).
Wehn we save the document after making any change using MS Office 2007, the alignment is changed in the merged PDF output (esp. table cell border hiding / displaying).
Moreover, the data in page header (data from XML) is not appearing.
Any ideas?

Hi Kumar
If I understand you correctly, I think the the following should work:
I Assume text-006 = 'fiscal year :'
CONCATENATE text-006 p_gjahr INTO ls_line-info SEPARATED BY space.
APPEND ls_line-info TO lt_top_of_page.
NB space will put a space between the variables being concatenated but you can use any variable in there eg for a comma separated list etc.
Hope that helps.
Andy
Message was edited by: Andrew Wright
In addition to this rather than trying to use offsets to position the text within the variable, you could use the SHIFT command as follows:
SHIFT ls_line-info RIGHT DELETING TRAILING space.
If you insert this between the CONCATENATE and APPEND statements above it should right-justify the text within the ls_line variable.
Kind regards
Andy

Microsoft Office 2007 compatibility with SAP Business One 2005B

Problems with MS Office 2007 and Tiger Server

I have an Xserve hosting file services for Macs and PCs. There is a RAID attached to the Xserve storing user data and ACLs are enabled. Since installing Office 2007 on the PCs there's been the following problem which can be replicated -
When saving an Excel or Word document back in the 2007 suite to the Xserve, the user will be unable to save the document if it is saved back for the third time. In Excel 'Unable to save document is reported'. In Word the document can't be saved due to a network error or a file permision problem being reported.
The above is true for existing documents created in Excel or Word 2003, then saved in 2007 versions, which are on the Server, or for documents created using Excel or Word 2007.
Users are logging on with different user accounts. They first log on to a Windows domain hosted by a Small Business Server then a drive has been mapped on their PC, to give thme access to the Xserve.
As I said things were OK until Office 2007 was installed on the PCs.

I'm having the same issue, allowing guest access on the share did change the logs I'm getting in Samba. Earlier on it was giving errors on the inability of guest access to the share.

============================================================
I also noticed that the temporary file that is created by office is not removed after the attempt to safe the file. (something like: ~$filename).

The 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine (Windows Server 2008 R2 (64) vs MS Office 2007)

We just have switched our local server from 32-bit to 64-bit machine and now we have Windows Server 2008 R2 Service
Pack 1 with MS Office 2007. On server we are running an application in ASP.Net 3.5 using visual studio
2008. All users have 32-bit windows 7 and MS Office 2007.
when user tries to import data from Excel to Database (SQL Server 2005), error comes as
"microsoft.ace.oledb.12.0 provider is not registered on local machine".
I have tried a solution by installing Access Database Engine 2007 Office System Driver on the Server, but the error
was same. Now what should I do to resolve this problem??? Should we install Office 2010 64-bit on the Server or is there any other solution???

Hi,
Thanks for your posting.
the file can be made in excel 2007, try to install:2007 Office System Driver: Data Connectivity Components
