Can a PDF connect to a database which can be revised?

I have someone that wants to have a file that would have the information for a house with a photo as a template. They want the information to work with a database (Excel or something probably) that he could easily swap out or revise. My plan was to create this with InDesign which I know I can do already but is it possible to convert this to a PDF and still have that ability? If not, is there a way to add some kind of database connection to a PDF? I realize you would probably need Acrobat Pro if it is at all possible but if the Reader works at all, would like to know that also

I have done this and play my DS using my Cable/DSL connection.
Use System Preferences/Sharing.
Choose to share your Ethernet Connection to computers using Airport. I had problems when I tried to use WEP encryption and my firewall. Turn both of these off when you wish to connect to Nintendo WFC. Start the sharing to allow you to connect.
On your DS you have to do some settings too. On the Wi-Fi settings:
SSID - The name of your Airport Network that you created
WEP Key - <blank>
Auto-obtain IP - Yes
IP Address - 10.0.2.4
Subnet Mask - 255.255.255.0
Gateway - 10.0.2.1
Auto-obtain DNS - No
Primary DNS - 62.31.64.39
Secondary DNS - <blank>
These settings work for me, so good luck with your DSing.

    Hi,
    There is a particular example with MS SQL 2000 in thread http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=608314
    In the given example you just need to change the database URL and the JDBC driver. Just examine the code a little bit.

  • Can't get connected to the database

    Hi There,
    I am a novice to Oracle. I recently installed Oracle 9i Personal Edition in my PC. I also installed 9i Developer suite, however i'm having problem connecting to the database everytime I run for instance, Form developer, report developer or Desginer. I get A Network dial up box. It ask me which network connection I'd like to use. It seems that the applications offered by the 9i Developer attempt to connect into server and in fact I'm runing the database on my pc not from a remote server.
    I appreciate any help regarding this isssue.
    Thank you
    Ayache.

    Step 1 : If you have several Oracle Homes at your PC you have to choose as primary Oracle Home the Oracle Home belonged to the Oracle Server. Do it so:
    SELECT START> PROGRAMS> Oracle Installation Products> Home Selector
    Step 2: tell me how many databases you have created and what are the SIDs of them.

  • Create Connection to MYSQL database which is on server using Dreamweaver CC

    Hello,
           I created a site using Dreamweaver CC and i have used the FTP server for this. Now i want to connect it to the database that i created on my server with the table.

    Hi,
    you can't export and improt database simultaneously. like as said Mr. Ben Pleysier.
    Actually it's possible but I would recommend using this method. This method is more confidence. because you have two database file (your pc and  remote server) and we are backed up files at the same time
    you can export and import database manually.
    firstly we export database file at local computer. (This process will be done on the local computer. localhost)
    you can see an examples below images.
    localhost php my admin panel on my pc
    1.
    2.
    We have record database file on the computer.
    and going to remote server php my admin panel. for import to database file.
    Remote Server Php My Admin Panel

    2.
    I hope I could help.
    bye

  • Security - Can I limit the number of computers which can access a PDF?

    I'd like to set the following specific securities over my PDF document:
    1. Password access
    2. Editing (copy/paste) disabled.
    I already know how to do these two in Acrobat.
    3. Limit the number of computers which can open the document. (i.e. I want to prevent the document holder from sending their copy of the PDF to someone else via email, external hard drive, etc.  Once he/she opens the PDF on their laptop, it can't be opened again on any other cpu)
    4. Expiration (i.e. I want to set a 5/10/15/ or 30-day expiration on the document.  Once it's been opened, it will become inaccessible in 5/10/15/ or 30 days' time.....whichever I would specifiy)
    Can someone help me with the last two items?  Your help is much appreciated.

    If (and this is a big IF) all recipients of your PDFs have digital IDs (PKI-based certificates), you can encrypt your PDFs with certificate encryption. In the encryption workflow you add recipients' certificates (with public key only) to the encrypted document. After that only holders of one of those certificates may be able to open your PDFs. This method does not restrict the documents from opening only on specific CPUs and does not prevent documents from being moved from one location to another but rather restricts the ability to open this document to a pre0defined group of people who are identified by their Digital IDs.
    The caveat here is that all these people need to have Digital IDs and send you their public keys.

  • TNS-12535. Trying to connect to oracle database which is on bridget VM

    I have a XP host running VMWare workstation 7 hosting a guest running Windows 2003 with Oracle database 9i (copy of my original physical server which I converted, also edited listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to IP of cloned server ). Network adapter is bridge so vmnic recived IP from DHCP and I can ping from my local network. Database is up and running. On my XP host I installed oracle client 11g and TNSPING is working and I can connect my application to database.
    Problem is because I can't connect from another XP PC from my network (also isntalled oracle client and changed listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to IP of cloned server) . Error is TNS-12535 TNS:operation time out. Firewall in off on both side. PIng is working ok. Is it a problem with bridge connection?
    Can anybody hel me with this problem?
    thanx in advance

    Applets have restriction in accessing resources (for security reasons -> that's why you recieved SecurityException). But normally database access is done on server-side, so put that stuff in the servlet and then send the data to the applet.

  • Can a PDF link to a database (Excel) for information to display? (or similar?)

    I have a template form I created and converted to PDF. It is for houses and each house has different specs that need to be listed. I want them to be able to easily update all the specs from outside of the PDF, like with an Excel file. Is there any way this is possible? If not, is there anything similar that can be done? He is really wanting a way to do this and I cant find a way of this even being possible with a PDF.
    I realize the best way is to do this is within InDesign while in creation of the template with a data connection but the person Im doing this for only has Acrobat Pro and not InDesign.

    Sorry, I was thinking of a pdf page with just a photo on it. There may be a simpler and more reliable way of doing this than the one I am suggesting, but I don't know it -- copying and pasting is possible, but it's not a very reliable way to work in Acrobat and sometimes cause more problems than it solves. But if you're adventurous, first you'll need to pdf the second photo and make sure it is the same size as the one that's being replaced. Then delete the photo from the original pdf file using the touchup object tool (you have to be careful to select the whole photo because it may be there in several pieces). Copy the new photo and paste it into the original. It won't paste exactly in the same place but will need to be positioned manually. Let me know if you ever find another way.

  • Can't create Connection to Oracle Database

    Hi i'm trying to create a simple connection to my oracle database and my projects compiles, but at the "createConnection" statement an SQLException is thrown.
    Well first of all my stats:
    Windows XP 32 bit
    Visual Studio 2005 (VC++ 8)
    Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
    OCCI
    I have already included the "..\OCI\include" directory to my projects additional include directories, the path to the new OCCI dll's and lib's to my additional library dierctories and i have also included the "oraocci10d.lib" to my additional dependencies for the linker.
    Now here is the code i'm trying to run (it's just the code of an OCCI sample modified to my preferences):
    1 #include <stdlib.h>
    2 #include <occi.h>
    3 #include <iostream>
    4 using namespace oracle::occi;
    5 using namespace std;
    6
    7 int main () {
    8     //create environment and connection
    9     string user = "myUser";
    10     string pw = "myPW";
    11     string db = "localhost:1521/XE";
    12     Environment *env = Environment::createEnvironment(Environment::DEFAULT);
    13     Connection *conn = env->createConnection(user, pw, db);
    14     cout << "Environment and Connection created" << endl;
    15
    16     //execute a SQL statement
    17     Statement *stmt = conn->createStatement();
    18     stmt->setSQL("INSERT into FRUITS (fruit, amt) VALUES ('apple', 10)");
    19     stmt->executeUpdate();
    20     conn->terminateStatement(stmt);
    21
    22     //terminate environment and connection
    23     env->terminateConnection(conn);
    24     Environment::terminateEnvironment(env);
    25     cout << "Environment and Connection terminated" << endl;
    26
    27     return 0;
    28 }
    The code crashes at line 13, where i'm trying to create the connection.
    Visual Studio breaks and is giving the information, that an SQLException occured.
    I looked for the Error code given by the exception and it's 24960.
    Well i've found some threads working around that problem, but nothing worked properly to my problem.
    Can anyone help me out of my problem?
    Addition: I've already debugged the code and the pointer to the environment is good, so this possible cause of the exception (Null-Pointer) is out!
    Thanks for any advice!
    Edited by: [email protected] on 08.06.2010 10:34

    Well i've found a post at a similar thread, where somebody told to try to compile and run the project in release mode.
    Incredibly it works fine, but only for release mode as i told.
    The debug mode is still having the same problem...
    If somebody has an idea how to solve this problem please let me know!
    Thanks, olf77.

  • Can't create connection to local database

    I'm trying to create a connection to a local database but I'm having problems.
    Currently we use SQL Plus to do work on the local database. With that we don't need to specify a host string we just leave it blank and it connects with no problems. SQL Developer is now requiring a host string, what are we supposed to use?

    I added this to the tnsnames.ora to try to help
    ORCL.world =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS =     
    (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
    (PROTOCOL = TCP)
    (Port = 1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL)
    You want something simpler, more like this.
    ORCL.world =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL)
    Trying to connect after that I get an error saying
    ORA-12541 TNS no listener.
    I made sure the listener service is started but I
    don't know what else I need to do with the listener.In a command window, type lsnrctl status. It should show what port the listener is running on and what services it is supporting. You should modify your tnsnames.ora to match
    Post the output here if you need more guidance.

  • How can I hold a value of voltage, which can be used as a numeric value

    Hi, I'm trying to read in a voltage value and then hold it when i press a button. This value should then be able to be used as a numerical value, e.g. I can divide it or add constants etc. I realise this is probably a totaly remedial question, but it's for my dissertation at uni and my tutor thought it would be a great idea to program part of it in Labview, which NOONE in the uni knows how to use, and we've never been taught it.
    Any help would be awesome,
    Grant

    Thanks JoeLabView, but maybe I should start by describing the purpose of the program.
    I'm reading the voltage going into a DC motor (max 200V) so i'm using a 10:1 voltage divider to reduce the voltage seen by my labjack since it can only measure up to 20V. I read the voltage seen at the voltage divider, e.g.  20V at 200V and then, in labview, multiply this by a multiplying factor to get it back to 'actual' voltage. e.g. 20*10 = 200. But since resistors aren't made perfect, (especially not 5A ones) my divider actually works out at something like 9.8756:1. Therefore I have to set the voltage to the motor to something known (e.g. 100V), then tell labview that value, it reads the voltage input to it through the labjack, and MultFactor = UserInputVoltage/LabjackVoltage.
    Using the multiplying factor, I can then display the 'Actual' voltage over the motor.
    The motor is also being controlled by LabView, but this is simply using a slider, attached to an analogue_out VI for the LabJack, so shouldn't be too consequential.
    Now to answer your questions.
    1) The LabJack is a USB device which 'instantaneously' reads the voltage, so as the voltage input to it changes, so does the value output by its VI in LabView. It changes in real time.
    2) I will need to continue to use the input from the LabJack once I have generated the mulitplying factor, multiplying the LabJack input by the multiplying factor in real time, so I can plot a graph of the change in voltage with 'real' values.
    3) Do you mean what does my program do just now when i release the button, or what i want it to do?
    4) I don't know how to structure the program, but hopefully what i've said above should help.
    5) The interface will include;
    Numeric Control to set the 'actual' input voltage
    A button to tell the program when to generate the mulitplying factor
    A waveform chart displaying the 'actual' voltage (0-200V)
    A slider that I can use to control the motor. (this part i can do myself, it's a reference for a PWM circuit connected to a buck converter)
    Thanks again man, hope this is what you need.

  • Can't edit connections w/o deleting drafts; can't delete drafts w/o edit connection!

    I'm in a CS3 catch-22! I had Contribute working fine & had 3 drafts I was working on. Web host changed FTP passwords. I go to edit connections and it says "Can't edit without deleting or publishing drafts". When I go to publish, of course I can't because the FTP password is wrong, and I can't delet for the same reason. I tried deleting from Outlook Explorer but there seems to be a problem still -- no drafts show in draft console, but I STILL CAN'T EDIT! HELP!
