Friends,
i'm trying to create a Universe based on a flat file. I found out this Business Objects Open Connectivity (in Generic Sources) to use files as sources.
But I'm not sure how to use it? Can anyone help with this or share a doc how to use this functionality?
Hi BHARATH C S ,
Follow the below steps.
1. Save the Excel in Local disk.
2. Go to Start>>Control Panel>>Administrative tools>Data Sources(ODBC)
3. Select System DSN>>Add>>Microsoft excel Driver(*.xls)
4. Give a new data source name and click on 'Select workbook' and point the saved excel sheet and click on OK
5. Create a new connection in Universe designer by using the Generic ODBC connection
6. Create a new universe and insert the table which we have defined in the Excel sheet.
If this solve your issue then Mark the answer as a correct.

Anish
