Ask for a better way

Recently, I bought a new iphone, and I want to transfer some important sms from my phone to the iphone. But it’s too many works by transfering one by one.
Anyone has an easy way?
PS: I have read one way on http://www.92download.com/wiki/IPhone_software

First off you should go to the forum or maker of the previous phone. They might know a better way.
Second, Why not just keep them on the other phone? are you gonna keep it? keep it with the sms messages in it. Put it in a draw and charge it every 6 months or so and it should last a long time.

Looking for a better way to utilize streams to track deletes in the db.

I'm trying to figure out a way to track deletes in the database using streams. I found that a dml_hander for deletes could satisfy my needs but it appears I would need to create a dml_handler for each table in the schema. Since I have ~250 tables I'm thinking there has to be a better way to do this. I simply need a way to capture all deletes and insert them into a table before they are deleted from the db. Is there a better way then creating a handler for each table?
Thanks,
Doug

So far you haven't posted a version number or any information about the use of any auditing tool, whether FGA or other auditing so it is impossible to either comment or advise you further.
If you want help you are going to need to do something you did not do in your original post and that is provide a description of your environment, your business rules, how you have attempted to use FGA or standard auditing, etc. Streams is for replication not auditing so perhaps you mean AQ but so far you haven't said that yet either.
The more information you can provide, and perhaps some code or clear descriptions of what you've attempted, the better the help possible.

Looking for a better way to count responses to survey questions

Hello all - I've created a survey for a site and now want to display the results for the site admins. I am simply trying to display the counts - the number of times a question has been answered a certain way. I realize that I may need to construct the survey itself differently and how it stores the data, but here's how it goes so far.
There are 10 questions, each with 4 options in radio button groups. The database table has a column for each question and stores the value of the selected radio button. So that's pretty simple.
Now on the results page this is the only way I can think of doing it, but there has to be a better way. For each response, I create a recordset filtered on the question and option value, then display the total record count. That works just fine, but to count each option, that means 40 recordsets on the page - al to merely determine "How many times was Question 1, Option A selected, and How many times was Question 1, Option B selected, and so on.
The only other thing I can think of, there perhaps is a better way to count the occurrences of these values in the table either with PHP or in the SQL itself. Or, perhaps if the values themselves are all numeric and follow some sort of pattern I can use a math solution.
Any thoughts, solutions and ideas are welcome! Thanks.

THANK YOU!!
I used this format before actually for an exam in an online training program, and I don't know why I didn't make the connection.
I also want to connect the responses to the participant, but I think that would even be secondary to the survey itself.
So just to clarify, if you would, I would have a survey table l like I do now, with each survey generating an ID with each one and perhaps the user info or a column for User ID. Then, the questions table each with an ID to populate the questions, a options table, each with its own ID and linked to the questions that populate the options.
Finally a responses table that records the Survey ID, Question ID and Option ID with each record.
In the exam I did before, the questions and responses were in the same table, so I suppose I could make it work that way too. But, now I know why I didn't think of this - unlike the exam where each question was presented one at a time, the survey is on a single page and would require a multiple record insert - which I haven't done as much as single inserts, so it didn't pop into the head.

Looking for a better way to backup end users

Hello there.
Not sure if this the best forum for this post but here goes.
Last week my company had a break in and a couple of laptops got lifted. Not a big deal as I had backups of the machines on tape. It did take a while to recover the files though. During that time I got to thinking about a better way to backup and I am looking for any ideas of if this would work or not.
First quick overview. About 60 end users majority with laptops.
What I am thinking of doing is this. Take an xServe RAID configured in RAID 5, for redundancy and speed, and creating a shared folder on it for each of my end users. This way if they need to retrieve a file they can log in and will not have to call me. Then, this is where I need help, use some tool to copy all of their files at specified intervals into their folder, at least once a day. I am currently using Retrospect to backup everyone directly to tape and I could use that to do this but the only thing I do not like about Retrospect is it can only do one user at a time. With 60 users I have to start it pretty early in the day. I know copy files would be alot faster so I am not ruling it out. I was also thinking about using ChronoSync to accomplish this and then use Retrospect to backup the RAID to tape for long term storage. I am ruling out using Home directories on the xServe for my users because they are all laptops and are usually out of the office at least one day a week.
If anyone could offer some ideas of whether or not this is going to work or not or if you have other suggestions, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
you could be using a combination of Mobile Accounts (for the settings of the ibook) and rsync (which is installed by default on 10.3 and 10.4), check man rsync for more info.

Looking for a better way to determine string variable from multiple options

Hi,
I trying to figure out a better way to determine a string variable from multiple options.
Say i have five pictures each with a different filename: img1 - img5...these file names could be named anything really but for this example i will keep them as img1, img2, img3, img4 and img5.
I want to display a messagebox with the string depending on what a certain variable is.
So for example, we have the number X, if X = 1 then i want the messagebox to show "img1" as the message
Essentially the way I have been doing it so far is:
Private Sub WhichImage()
Dim ImageName As String = ""
Dim i as integer
If i = 0 Then
ImageName = "img1"
End If
If i = 1 Then
ImageName = "img2"
End If
If i = 2 Then
ImageName = "img3"
End If
If i = 3 Then
ImageName = "img4"
End If
If i = 4 Then
ImageName = "img5"
End If
MessageBox.show(imagename, "Name of image", MsgBox.Style.OkOnly, MsgBoxResult.Ok)
end
Up until now, this has been fine, but what if I have 50 images, do I have to do this for all 50 images? or is there an easier way like putting the image names into a text file and have it read from the file depending on what the variable i equals? If so,
how do I go about this? Does each image name go on a separate line? can it just be separated by a comma instead? or is there a better way?
Please note that i know that i have declared "i" above in my code and not intialised it with anything, in reality "i" comes from somewhere else in the program so please ignore that part, it is not what I am concerned with.
Thanks

Does each image name go on a separate line? can it just be separated by a comma instead? or is there a better way?
Arrays are useful for this.
Dim imagenames() As String = {"img1", "img2", "img3", "img4", "img5"}
Dim imagename As String = imagenames(i)
MessageBox.Show(imagename, "Name of image")
Any sort of collection will do instead of an array, and may be simpler to manage. There are many other options - the most suitable one probably depends on where the names originally come from. For instance, if you are getting them from a folder
using the FileSystem.GetFiles method, then they are already in a collection.
If the files names never change then you may as well include them in the program code, using something like the code above. If they can change, then you could use a text file, but that means you need a file update routine. If that is required
then the way you store the names will dictate how you access them.

Looking for a better way to write this SQL

Oracle version 11R2
OS version (does not matter)
What I trying to do is write a query that finds Public Synonyms without a target object. I came up with this but I thinking there's a better way.
Select
s.owner, s.synonym_name, s.table_name, s.table_owner, s.db_link, InitCap(o.object_type) object_type
from
sys.DBA_SYNONYMS s, sys.DBA_OBJECTS o
where
s.synonym_name is not null
and
s.table_owner = o.owner (+)
and
s.table_name = o.object_name (+)
and
s.owner = 'PUBLIC'
and
object_type is null; object_type is null appears to be the weakness. It seems the check of the target object should be better.
Feedback, comments, queries welcome.

I'm not sure exactly what "better" means in this context (faster, easier to read, etc.) but I'd tend to use a NOT EXISTS
SELECT s.*
FROM dba_synonyms s
WHERE owner = 'PUBLIC'
   AND s.db_link IS NULL
   AND NOT EXISTS (
    SELECT 1
      FROM dba_objects o
     WHERE o.owner = s.table_owner
       AND o.object_name = s.table_name )I added the DB_LINK criteria to filter out public synonyms that reference objects in remote databases which obviously don't exist in the local DBA_OBJECTS.

Looking for a better way to observe POJO changes

Let's say you have a POJO like Employee, and you want to make changes to the fields in the POJO observable. What's the best way to do this? The listeners should be able to register for change events, without necessarily subscribing to every property.
I could create an ObservableEmployeeHelper that takes an employee and wraps each of the fields in Simple*Property objects, and then fires notifications whenever any of those properties change. But it would be nice for the listeners to be able to pick and choose what they want to listen to -- something like this:
addListener(EmployeeEvent.ALL, new ChangeListener<ObservableEmployeeHelper>(){...});or
addListener(EmployeeEvent.SALARY_CHANGE, new ChangeListener<ObservableEmployeeHelper>(){...});The other problem is that the ListCell and TableCell's really don't know how to deal with a change to the POJO instead of to the a single observable attribute. For example, if Employee has a status field (ON_HOLIDAY, ON_SICK_LEAVE, ON_SITE, WORKING_FROM HOME) and you want to display an icon next to the user's name indicating this status. It's difficult to do in way that automatically updates the icon in a list whenever you change the status. My hack for this to attach a listener to the Employee observable status property and watch for changes. But this can lead quickly to memory leaks if not done well.
And currently if you put the Observable POJOs into an ObservableList, you won't get notified if a particular POJO changes, only if the entire list changes.
Is there an easier way to watch for changes to any field in a POJO?
It would be nice if there was an @Observable annotation that you could just add to the fields of your POJO and some kind of mixin that you could add to the class that would propagate changes, register listeners, etc.
Edited by: mfortner on Aug 6, 2012 5:00 PM

I think you'll need to build somekind of custom solution for this.
I've done this for my own program so I can monitor changes in any of the properties using just one listener. This helps me to do two things:
1) Monitor when an object has changed (if any of its properties was changed), and register the object for future storage (unless modified again within a specific timeout)
2) Monitor when an object was accessed (if a specific set of properties was read), and schedule the object for enrichment (fetching additional data in the background)
Using properties for this is great because a lot of action can simply be done in the background and as soon as the information is available the UI will update. For example, when the Photo property is accessed the first time by binding it to an ImageView, the Photo won't have loaded yet (it's null). The access is noticed though, and so a background thread loads the Photo from the database. When this process is finished, it updates the Photo property -- thanks to the binding to ImageView, the Photo will be updated automatically in the UI.
The advantage of course is that I donot need to fetch these things myself anymore -- the program will do this automatically... and for only those objects that actually were accessed (the rest will remain in a minimal state until actually used).
Same for the automated storage. I just bind a property to the UI, or multiple of them, and when any of them is changed, a process starts that waits for 3 seconds before storing the object. If any more changes occured in the mean time, the timer resets.

A better way to write last_day query

Hi folks,
I am looking for a better way to write a query to find last_day in month but if its sunday or holiday it should move to day before last day.
So for example if 31 is sunday it should go for 30, if 30 is holiday it should move down to 29.
I got this so far but the connect by level is hardcoded to 15. Want to see if there is a better way to get this working:
select max(datum)
from (    select last_day(trunc(sysdate)) - level + 1 as datum
              from dual
        connect by level < 15)
where to_char(datum, 'day') != 'sunday'
   and to_char(datum, 'DDMM') not in
         ('3012')Best regards,
Igor

Like this
select to_char(last_day_month, 'Day') day_is,
       last_day_month,
       last_day_month - case when to_char(last_day_month, 'fmday') = 'sunday' then 1
                             when to_char(last_day_month, 'ddmm' ) = '3012'   then 1
                             else 0
                        end last_business_day_month
from (
          select last_day(add_months(trunc(sysdate, 'year'), level-1)) last_day_month
            from dual
          connect by level <= 12
DAY_IS    LAST_DAY_MONTH LAST_BUSINESS_DAY_MONTH

Keeps asking for my hotmail password and saying its wrong stopped recieving mail

keeps asking for my hotmail password and have stopped recieving mail

Mail asks for your password when it cannot contact the Server. It presumes [usually incorrectly] you told it the wrong password, and asks for a better one. The one you enter replaces the one that is stored.
But often the reason it cannot connect is that the Mail Server holding your emails is temporarily DOWN.
Ignore those requests and take that account Online again later.
(You may have to re-enter the password, because it often clobbers your good password with the one you enter, and sometimes does not store ANY password after that stupid dialog box.)

Efficient or Better Ways for Data Declaration

Hi Guys,
Basically I've always programmed much the same way for a pretty long time now. Lately I've been asking myself the question - "how can i start improving on my tried and trusted ways".(oftern a linear programming approach). As part of this I'm examining ways to declare data better within in programs and to adopt a neat way to do so.
This may seem pretty trivial but the first question I want to ask is how to declare data better
e.g. I need to declare constants - each constant corresponds to a rule number; 1, 2,3,4,5,6 - 23 etc.
Instead of declaring the following line 23 times - is there a better way to declare in such a way.
Constants: c_rule_1 type c value '1' ,
                c_rule_2 type c value '2',
                etc etc etc
Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
DK

Hi,
With my knowledge, data declarations for all constants with DATA comamnd itself is good practise in point of performance. Alternative is dynamic creation of variables. But it consumes more time and is not good to practise. Instead of crating individual parameters for each constant, you could create a structure and add all constants as fields as follows:
constants: begin of con,
                   1 type c value '1',
                   2 type c value '2',
                end of con.

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up the iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for that before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. Is there a way to reset the keychain password?

I just upgraded to Lion. I was trying to set up iCloud and it asked for my "login" keychain password. I've never been asked for the keychain password before. I've tried every password I can think of and nothing works. I'm normally asked for the password to my machine when upgrading software, signing on, etc. but this is different apparently. I tried the same password and it didn't work either. I read a couple of posts and they all want to take me through Applications/Utilities but that requires knowing your password in order to change it. I don't know it. Don't remember ever setting up a keychain password. Does anyone know how to change the keychain password if you don't know the keychain password???

Most of the time your Keychain password is the same as your login password. If you configured your computer to log you in automatically, you may not have used your login password in so long you forgot it.
There is no way to retrieve the "login" Keychain password, but you can reset the Keychain from the Preferences menu: select it in the Keychain Access menu and select "Reset My Default Keychain". This will create a new, empty Keychain but the old one will be saved should you ever remember its password.
The result of this is that you will have to supply passwords for everything that requires it, since without your Keychain they will no longer automatically fill themselves. However, once you supply them and store them in your new Keychain, they will be remembered.

Is there a better way to edit and create a Page Size list for InDeisgn CC 2014?

I have about 65 iMac machines I'm responsible for at a publishing company. The users need a specific custom Page Size list to display when setting up a new document. It's a very long list of sizes for various products. The only way I know how to edit this size list is to open the .xml file in Dreamweaver and edit the code. I would like to know if there is a better way to do this for InDesign CC 2014. At the moment I have to take this one file and install individually on all users accounts on all 65 machines. Here is the path of the file I edit by hand: Mac HD/Users/(User Account)/Library/Preferences/Adobe InDesign/Version 10.0/en_US/Pages Sizes/New Page Sizes.xml

There is no special folder for templates. You just put them where it makes sense to you, and you access the same way you would open any existing file.
The only functional difference between a template (.indt) and document (.indd) file is the default opening behavior. By default templates open as untitled copies and documents open as originals. You can change from one to the other just by changing the file extension.
The advantage of using a template over a document size preset is the preset only defines a page size. The template can include multiple pages, multiple master pages, styles you want to use, objects already in place, etc. And the use of a template removes the temptation to "recycle" an old issue of a recurring project. Starting each issue fresh from a known clean template reduces the risk of accumulated minor corruption that can eventually cause a fatal problem.
