Formula for dates back 7 days failing because of end of month?
HI I have a CR that has been working fine till now. it runs every Sunday late in the day and looks back past 7 days. it has formula for dates from and to.
tonumber(totext(CurrentDate,'yyyyMMdd'))-6
and tonumber(totext(CurrentDate,'yyyyMMdd'))
yet this past Sunday, it is not giving all previous 7 days. could it be related in any to the end of month? i cant think this is it. but perhaps.the date col is type = NUMBER and in YYYYMMDD.
WHen I ran this report manually by selecting on the dates needed it returns more data.
Hi Paul,
The issue is when you convert a date to number a subtract 6 from it, it doesn't go 6 days back; it just subtracts 6 days from that converted number.
So, today, represented as a number would be 20140804 however, when you subtract 6 from this number you get : 20140798 which of couse is Not a date.
Your code (if the dates are stored as number in the database) should be :
tonumber(totext(CurrentDate-6,'yyyyMMdd'))

Connection Source for .... failed because the environment is not trusted
I got a message like this -
Connection Source for .... failed because the environment is not trusted
when trying to bind a field to a data connection field. What does this mean? I setup the data connection and it tested out fine.I am not exactly sure what you are referring to by the see "Note". I didn't find a "Note" that was related. The only thing I did find was the following:
"If you are using external data sources in a form design that you want users to fill in Adobe Reader, you must set usage rights for the form by using Reader Extensions Server."
I am only trying to display back information out of a database. I don't want to write information. Is there any way to get around this?

My time machine back up failed because it says the backup volume could not be mounted
My time machine back up failed because it says the backup volume could not be mounted. What does that mean and how do I fix it so that it backs up?
A whole lot about Time Machine for help with TM problems. Also you can select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "time machine" to locate articles on how to use TM. See also Mac 101- Time Machine.
Use Disk Utility to repair the TM drive. If that doesn't help, and you don't find help from the above, then erase the drive and start a new TM backup. -
I am unable to get past the first step of Winston Churchill's answer because my phone says "checking for a software update failed because you are not connected to the Internet." Did my iphone's WiFi connection also get lost with the Contacts, Mail and Text Messages? When I tried the software update, as recommended by Winston Churchill, the iphone was connected to my desktop which is connected to the Internet.
You can't use your computers Internet connection to update your phone from the phone itself. If you want to use the computers Internet connection to update your phone you must update it through iTunes.

Use formula for date range instead of parameter?
I am designing a Crystal report that will always pull records for the next full week.
Example: Today is 8/4, so I need the report to pull data for dates 8/11 through 8/15.
Currently, I am using parameters each time to run this report.
Is there a formula that could automatically pull this date range without using parameters in my report?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.This is actually not too difficult. Assuming you want to be able to run this on any date and get the "Next Full Week" starting on Monday (based on your date range above), here's what you could do:
1. Create a formula that I'll call {@StartDate}
NumberVar dow := DatePart('w', CurrentDate, crMonday) - 1; //Day of week, starting on Monday.
NumberVar days := 7 - dow;
CurrentDate + days
2. Create a formula that I'll call {@EndDate}:
{@StartDate} + 7
3. In the Select Expert, manually edit the selection formula to use these date formulas instead of the parameters.

Basic functions (high) in query formula for highest # of days past due
Hi All,
I hope you can help. I am trying to create a formula in a query for FIAR Line Item Cube (0fiar_c03). I would like to calculate the hightest number of days past due for open line items. There is an operator 'high' in basic functions within the query formula. Is it possible to use this?
Regards,
Cheryl AdamonisThere is a workaround usind conditions.That is you can try to filter the top 10 % or top 10 after calculating the no of days past.However this way you will not be displaying complete dataset

Hi everyone
I am fairly new to Java and PI, and I have to create a UDF that takes the currentDate and subtracts 7 days. I was just wondering the best way to go about this with java?
Thank YouUDF Code as below ..
Calendar now = Calendar.getInstance();
now.add(Calendar.DATE, -7);
String subtractSevenDays = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy/MM/dd").format(now.getTime());
return subtractSevenDays;
// Dont forget below import statements
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
import java.util.Calendar;
Map it to target field.
Note: You can choose any pattern in the above SimpleDateFormat argument.
Currently the output will be ex: 2011/04/01

Which external hard drive should I buy for data back up? Thanks
emac g4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
emac g4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)Hello Seventree and welcome to discussions,
If I can assume that the title of your post is your entire question....
Make sure its Firewire - That way, you can boot up the eMac in the, unlikely, event of an internal drive failure / problem. You cannot boot PPC Macs from a USB drive.
Get the biggest you can afford. The external may well outlive the eMac! Many machines now " ship " with 500 Gig drives. That amount is only likely to increase.
Maxtor is one brand that seems to be well regarded among many here. I am sure there will be other suggestions for you.

Not sure if this is an SQL or C# question, but here it goes: I am trying to create my first CLR assembly for SQL using C#. I found several examples online, and am following them. However, when I try to load my assembly into the SQL Server,
I receive the aforementioned error. I've googled the heck out of it an am coming up with nothing. Anyone have an idea that can point me in the right direction?SQL Server 2008 uses .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (and, really, the base portion of the framework is just 2.0 with updates, 3.0 and 3.5 just update the 2.0 base and add some new assemblies). If changing the VS2010 to 3.5 didn't do it, I'd try starting out with
an entire new project and set the target to 3.5 at project creation time. Unless you're using some odd referenced assemblies that are version 1.1 or 4.0, this should work (I've been using VS2010 with 3.5 targets for SQLCLR for quite a while without incident).
Hope this helps, Cheers, Bob Beauchemin, SQLskills -

Connection for srouce dataconnection failed because the environment is not trusted
HI all I keep gettng this message when I
preview the page
i get this message that sayd he the connection for the source dataconnection failed because the environment is not trusted
can anyone help??Here is a blog entry that discusses how to deal with getting specific records etc....
http://forms.stefcameron.com/2006/09/29/selecting-specific-database-records/
Note at the bottom of the blog he mentions new security rules in version 8. Make sure you follow that link and look at the section on cloning ....you will need to do that in your script.
Once you are on that blog you can search for your "Environment not Trusted" error. There were a couple of hits in the Q/A sections at the bottom of the blog. There is no definitive answer but there was a couple of suggestion there.
Also if you go a google serach on "Environment not Trusted" there are numerous hits on different discussion forums. You may get your answer from one of those. If you find the answer can you post it back here please?

My iPad hasn't backed up to iCloud for 2 weeks after repeated attempts even AFTER I paid extra for more iCloud storage. I've connected it to my laptop and it still won't backup. I'm so frustrated because it keeps saying back-up failed but I don't know why. Please help, thanks!
To back up to your computer, right-click on the name of your iPad on the left side of iTunes and click Back Up. (If running iTunes 11, first go to View>Show Sidebar.)
To get your iPad to back up to iCloud again, try deleting your last backup (if you have one) by turning off iCloud Backup in Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup, then tap Manage Storage, swipe across your backup and tap Delete, then go back and turn iCloud Backup back on again. If it still won't back up, you may have an app that is preventing the backup from succeeding. To locate which one, go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup>Manage Storage, tap the name of your device under Backups, under Backup Options tap Show All Apps, then turn them all to Off (including camera roll) and try backing up again. If it succeeds, then the camera roll and/or one of your apps is preventing the backup and you'll have to located by process of elimination. Turn the camera roll On and try backing up again. If it succeeds, turn some of your apps to On and try backing up again. If it succeeds again, turn some more apps to On then try again; repeat this process until it fails. Eventually you'll be able to locate the problem app and exclude it from your backup.
If it still won't back up you may have network issues connecting to the iCloud server. Solutions to that include power-cycling your wireless router (unplugging it for 15 seconds, then plugging it back in), resetting network settings on your phone (in Settings>General>Reset), updating the firmware on your router, and changing the router's DNS settings to use Google's public DNS (see https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using). -
I've looked in both Windows 7's system options and Firefox options for ways of disabling this autoshortcut for going back a page, but there doesn't seem to be one. I'll be using the touchpad, sliding my fingers across, when I somehow activate a shortcut for "Go Back a Page" and end up losing tons of data on a form or chat or game.

For the past couple of days I have been getting the following alert on my tape backups:
Cannot verify tape data.
The operation failed because of a protection agent failure. (ID 998 Details: No more data is on the tape (0x80070450))
It has completed the backup but I get this error when performing a verify or when I try and restore.
This error only occurs on the same server we backup in the protection group. The other 5 servers backup fine.
We are using DPM 2010 (3.0.8195.0)Same here.
When I came back from vacation I found the same error in our DPM 2012.
The operation failed because of a protection agent failure. (ID 998 Details: No more data is on the tape (0x80070450))
I cannot find anything in the eventlog saying that the tapelibrary has been offline.
How can I check that?
Last nights tape-job went "almost" well, one server (VM) still has this error. (But I dont know if that depends on the fact that it had status "Missing" in hyper-v manager due to a Win-update shutdown on a host that had a misconfiguration (auto-reebot).)
I rebooted the DPM-server this morning and then I tried to manually run all tapejobs again but they get this status again.
I do not understand this error and why it suddenly appears to work again for a scheduled job but not when I trigger the job manually.
Is there not a solution for this?
