I am contributing to a book, and I used Mendeley to manage the bibliography of my chapter. Now the editor has asked me to provide my list of references in a file format compatible with Zotero.
I can easily export the Mendeley collection as a .RIS file and import it to Zotero using this procedure, but I would not like to export the whole collection (more than 2000 entries), neither select the references manually one by one (about 100).
Is there a way I can automatically select the bibliography I used for my chapter in the Mendeley Desktop and then export it in a unique .RIS file?
I am using Mendeley Desktop version 1.18 on a Windows 8 machine.
Thanks for your help.
I've had success two ways:
Create a folder and place all the items that were cited in the book chapter in that folder. Select the folder, highlight the records [Ctrl+A], then export those cites as the RIS file to upload to Zotero.
Tag the used citations with a unique tag, select those records [Ctrl+A], and then export that collection as the RIS file.

In Domino Designer, I would like to export a view to CSV file, with the details as per below:
Select all document
In UTF-8
Include Column Title
I tried to use formula language to at least export it to csv, and save it at the current user's desktop, but it seems like %UserProfile% is not working.
#Command([FileExport];"Comma Separated Value";"C:\Users\%UserProfile%\Desktop\temp.csv")
I have tried to change "%UserProfile%" with Public, and it works, but preferably I wish it could be done using current user profile.
My questions are:
Can I use formula language to code something like this?
Is there any lotusscript similar to my description as above (i.e The CSV file can be exported only by one click?
Thank you in advance.
No
Yes, see example as a starting point.
As far as I understand, APEX 5.1 does not support Excel files to be loaded into tables.
I found this package that seems to make it possible to SELECT from Excel files, but it does not show how to use it with, for example, files loaded via the "File Browse" Item.
Now, I am very new to this environment, so please explain it from the beginning.
What I did is I upload the package script to the SQL workshop and executed it, without errors. But now?
APEX 5.1 doesn't support it out of the box, but you can use the EXCEL2COLLECTION plugin (available here).
It is very straightforward, just create a file browse page item with an upload button which calls an onsubmit process (e.g. CreateCollection) of type Excel2Collection[Plug In] - specify the file browse item, a collection name and the CSV separator, then you can do as you please with the data (e.g. you may want to run some validations on the data then insert it into a table where you can access it as normal).
I need some help loading data from Excel Files (*.xlsx, *.xls)to Oracle 11 using an Oracle Apex 4.0.2 User Account.
I found and modified a process to load *.cvs files. This process works as follows:
Load the *.csv files into a BLOB column.
After insert into the table, I execute the
This process inserts every row to the table
I want you to help me to code a similar code, but instead of loading *.csv I want it to work with Excel files.
Oracle Apex 4.0.2 has a Workshop to load but it is only allowed to Developers, and I want to create this process in order to allow Users to load data by themselves.
Any reason why you don't upgrade to apex 5.0, or at the very least 4.2? The "Data Loading" components have been added in 4.1 and offer you a fast way of developing this exact requirement. 4.0 is ancient by now and no longer supported.
Loading an xlsx or xls is vastly, vastly different from loading a CSV. Again, I'd ask, why not update. There are plugins available which process excel files to collections, even XLSX. Again though, your apex version is too low. You're shooting yourself in the foot here. Not that there aren't coding options available, but still.
If you still don't want to upgrade for some arbitrary reason, focus perhaps on xlsx files. They're essentially zip-files with a bunch of files. I wrote a blog on this back in 2012. http://tpetrus.blogspot.be/2012/09/a-non-standard-export-to-excel-2010-xlsx.html
It's still relevant and I'm only linking it because it contains all the guts of the code. It's not infallible and has limits though. There's probably other ways, too. Less so for 4.0.
There is a great package developed by Anton Scheffer that allows you to work with xls or xlsx files (once uploaded as blobs) as tables and perform query operations like:
-- every sheet and every cell
select *
from table( as_read_xlsx.read( as_read_xlsx.file2blob( 'DOC', 'Book1.xlsx' ) ) )
--
-- cell A3 from the first and the second sheet
select *
from table( as_read_xlsx.read( as_read_xlsx.file2blob( 'DOC', 'Book1.xlsx' ), '1:2', 'A3' ) )
--
-- every cell from the sheet with the name "Sheet3"
select *
from table( as_read_xlsx.read( as_read_xlsx.file2blob( 'DOC', 'Book1.xlsx' ), 'Sheet3' ) )
Then you could use the data as needed.
Here's the code.
Yes. someday's ago I done something like this.
I was upload some Excel Files (*.xlsx, *.xls) in oracle database table using oracle apex by a Apex plugin call "Excel2collection".
Actually first I was load the excel file into apex collection table then I move it from collection to oracle database.
Here I provide a link of my blog where I write the full process step by step.

Excel2Collection plugin is hard to beat. That's Anton's solution bundled into an APEX plugin. This way you can feed the file browse item into a process and have it spit out APEX Collection records

I am using Data Architect and want to export data of a table with memo fields.
If I export to CSV, everything works fine.
When I export to Excel (2003), the memo content is truncated and formatted with funny squares which is typical of a unicode encoding/decoding problem.
Ex : original string : "ABCD"
When exported to Excel : "A_B_" where the underscore is a square
I have looked into the devzone newsgroup but have not found any reference to this issue.
As an alternative you could try to use some ODBC to Excel converter tool.
Writing a small program that exports data using ADS and OLE should be rather easy, too.
I'm an Advantage support rep and we saw your message from the feedback.advantagedatabase.com site.
I confirmed the behavior you've seen and am reporting it as a possible bug. In the meantime we did add the ability to directly copy the table and paste it into excel (e.g. select all of the data and then right click > copy records - this method allowed me to paste into an excel table without issue). This feature is in ARC version 10.x.
Also, as noted you can also access the data using ODBC or OLE DB. You can download these drivers from http://devzone.advantagedatabase.com/ under the "Product Download" section.
If you'd like further help or more detailed tracking of this you can open up a support ticket by calling 1-800-SYBASE5 (792.2735)

I had MOC 2005 re-installed on my office PC recently, and found to my chagrine that it had lost all of my contacts. I've searched for ways to export/import the contacts list, but have not found any useful answers. Some suggest looking in the registry at key tree HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Communicator, but all I find are the titles of the contact groups I used to have (as binary Unicode values), but which MOC no longer recognizes.
My plan is to export the registry (or data file) values and then write a script to re-instate them, I just need to know where to find those values.
Any suggestions?
Update
I think I may have found the answer myself. I located an XML file in:
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\
Microsoft\Communicator\presence_User_Name_Company_Com.xml
which appears to contain all my contact info.
I plan to examine it a little further soon.
open this file in excel from the following location C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application Data\
Microsoft\Communicator\presence_User_Name_Company_Com.xml . all the contacts will be arranged in a single column. you can save it....:) easy way to take a bakup....
It's not possible to export directly the contents of the whole OCS map. But you can manually proceed to a separate export.
Select the content of each group you have in your OCS, cut and paste in a notepad window.
You get there a liste of mail addresses separated by semicolumns.
create the complete list step by step, group by group.
Once the list is created, you can send it to your friends, and they just have to create the groups in their own OCS, and group by group, cut and paste the rows of addresses in the group.
The group is automatically updated.
If you use the Office Communicator client for Mac, you can save your contacts list and then import them. The only thing it doesn't do is retain the groups, if you have organized contact groups.
For MS Communicator 2005 running on Windows 7, you can find the file here:
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Communicator\presence_User_Name_Company_Com.xml
We don't have Communicator 2010 at our site, perhaps some could confirm if this path/file is correct for more recent versions.
