Thanks in advance

Could it be that you're really interested in extracting specific values from the html file and then you want to export these values to csv and/or excel?

How can i import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

How can I import contacts from a csv file to "iCloud Contacts"?

The only way I know of to import cells from a csv file is by creating a new file. But then you can select the desired cells and copy them to the other file. I just did it to be sure it works.
1. Create the new spreadsheet file via the upload command.
2. Select the cells (table) that you want to move to the other file and press command+C (copy).
3. Close the new file and open the existing file.
4. Select the top/right cell of the area to receive the copied "table" and press commant+V (paste).
I hope this is what you're trying to do!

How to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table

hello everybody,
I am new here and new in Oracle. I would like to know the steps how to import data from excel or csv files to Oracle table.
Let say I already have table inside the Oracle. Then my user give me the sets of data inside the Excel Worksheet.
So, how can I import the excel data into Oracle table.
Thank you in advance.
cheers,
shima

Even easier. Download JDeveloper 11G from this site.
Set up the database connection, right click on the table, select Import->Excel and specify your file to load it. On the import pop-up, you must view and update each tab indicating Columns, Data Types, and DML.
Columns -- move the selected columns that you want to load to the box on the right
Data Types -- select column name from second column to which the data for each column of the import file should load
DML -- click this tab to generate the INSERT SQL
Once done click 'Insert'

How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail

How to Convert iTunes Songs (Apple lossless audio file) to a MP3 for E-mail?
My computer is Windows 7 and my Itunes software version is 1.0.2
Many thanks in advance...

iTunes 1.0.2 is +at least+ eight years old.
The current version is 9.2, and it's free.
If that was a typo, and you're using something more current:
In the iTunes preferences, change the import settings to mp3.
Then select the songs you wish to convert.
From the "Advanced" menu, choose "Create mp3 version".
When done, change the import settings back to Apple Lossless.
That's it.
BTW, this is the Logic Pro forum, which has absolutely nothing to do with iTunes.

How to transfer the messages saved as .csv file to the iphone?

I made abackup my messages using SQlite browser which saved the backup file as .csv file. How can i transfer it to my phone again?

PC suite does not help. Especially in my case where i created sub-folders in the "saved messages" folder, after which the messages can be read, but cannot be moved back to inbox anymore. After calling the nokia care centre, guess what the d**B customer care person said? she said one option is to forward the SMS's to another SIM card, then save it on that sim card. talk abt not using your brain!!! firstly, it would be costly, at 5cents per sms; that notwithstanding, it would take hours and hours to forward all (I have ard 900 saved sms's) to another number!
with technology at the leve it's at now, I don't see why I have to incur both the TIME and MONEY to transfer something that is already belonging to me.

1) How do I go about this? I think I have to configure an adapter but which adapter would give me the desired result?
2) How do I tell PI when to pick the file from and where to place it after conversion? Could this be done in adapter configuration?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
--Mithun

>>> 1) How do I go about this? I think I have to configure an adapter but which adapter would give me the desired result?
Use File adapter at the sender side to pick up the xml and use file adapter at the receiver side (message protocol file content conversion) to convert xml format to csv.
Basically you have to configure in the file adapter (FCC) on the receiver side to get desired csv structure from XML.
>>> 2) How do I tell PI when to pick the file from and where to place it after conversion? Could this be done in adapter configuration?
Configure sender file adapter to pick up the file from the specified directory. Configure receiver file (fcc adapter) to drop the csv file after conversion.
For sender adapter
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/content.htm
For receiver adapter in our case FCC (FILE content Conversion) follow the link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW04/helpdata/en/d2/bab440c97f3716e10000000a155106/content.htm
Hope answered your question.
Mapping area: simple suggestion. Keep input and output message same structure and do one to one mapping. In the receiver fcc adapter configure for csv structure following instruction given in the above second link
Note: FCC adapter does not support nested structure more than 2. So in your case you can achieve using conversion agent tool. Otherwise you might have to achieve through some graphical mapping.

How do i save and access a csv file on my ipad when filling in a smartform. Currently only option goes to photos

Trying to save a csv file on my ipad so I can auto populate into a SmartForm. It will only allow me to access photos when I hit the import button

search the app store for PDF Writer. I've found a lot that will convert documents to PDF, but none yet that will write within the PDF. One thing you want to avoid are cloud based apps. Any of them that talk about editing on the cloud, etc, aren't going to be as standalone as you want.
It's possible, if you can take your template PDF, turn it into a word document that you can edit, you can then convert that to PDF...kinda a workaround way to do what you want. And apps that convert to PDF are much easier to find

How to configure sync rules involving a CSV file and portal self service

Hello,
I need to configure some FIM sync rules for the following scenario:
User account details are entered from a HR CSV file and exported to AD Users have the ability to modify their own AD attributes in the
FIM portal (there is not a requirement for them to view their HR CSV data in the portal). The FIM portal modifications will be exported to AD as expected.
My setup is as follows:
CSV file - name, last name, employee ID, address.
CSV MA - has direct attribute flows configured in the MA between the data source and MV Portal self service attributes –
users can edit mobile, display name and photo
I've also set the CSV MA as precedent for the attributes
FIM MA – attribute flows defined for MV to Data Source as usual (i.e. firstname to firstname, accountname to accountname, etc).
AD MA – no attribute flows defined as inbound and outbound sync rules have been configured in the portal using the Set\MPR\Triple.
I’m thinking of using the following run profiles:
CSV MA – full import and delta sync (imports HR data)
FIM MA – export and delta import (imports portal changes)
FIM MA – delta sync (syncs any portal changes)
AD MA – export and delta import
If my understanding is correct this should sync HR data from CSV to AD, as well as user attribute self service updates from the portal to AD.
If I wanted to just do a HR CSV sync could I get away with just steps 1 & 4 ? (presumably not as my rules are in the FIM portal?)
If I wanted to do just a portal sync, could I get away steps 2-4?
Any advice on how to improve my setup is much appreciated - cheers
IT Support/Everything

The truth is that your design should be done in the way that it doesn't matter which profiles in which order you will execute. At the end, if you will run all import, synch and export profiles on each data source you should get same result. This is beauty
of synch engine here.
Your steps from 1-4 will synch data to your data sources and at the end will give you expected result. But not because of the order you are executing them but because of correct attribute flows. If flows from CSV file and from FIM portal might be done for
the same attributes you need to think also about attribute precedence.

How to Read the "text file and csv file" through powershell Scripts

Hi All
i need to add a multiple users in a particular Group through powershell Script how to read the text and CSV files in powershell
am completly new to Powershell scripts any one pls respond ASAP.with step by step process pls
Regards:
Rajeshreddy.k

Hi Rajeshreddy.k,
To add multiple users to one group, I wouldn't use a .csv file since the only value you need from a list is the users to be added.
To start create a list of users that should be added to the group, import this list in a variable called $users, the group distinguishedName in a variable called $Group and simply call the ActiveDirectory cmdlet Add-GroupMember.
$Users = Get-Content -Path 'C:\ListOfUsernames.txt'
$Group = 'CN=MyGroup,OU=MyOrg,DC=domain,DC=lcl'
Add-ADGroupMember -Identity $Group -Members $Users

Now I want to import the data from these csv files into the tables on second machine. if I've 50 such csv files, then data should be written to 50 tables.
I am new to this. Could anyone please let me know how can I import data back into tables. i can't use sqlloader as I've to satisfy a few conditions while loading the data into tables. I am stuck and not able to proceed.
Please let me know how can I do this.
Thanks,

How do I export phone contacts into CSV file?

I can't seem to export the contacts in my iPhone into a CSV file so I can import them into Yahoo Mail or Gmail to edit.

Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported application on your computer. This is so common with Windows users - here anyway - not having contacts available on their computer. How does one get by without having contact info available on their computer, or having email addresses only for contacts on their computer, telephone numbers only for contacts on their cell phone, and mailing addresses who knows where? Not a good idea to depend on an iPhone or any cell phone only for contact info - along with having to manually enter all contact info on a cell phone, which can be lost or stolen.
With Windoze, you can sync contacts with Outlook 2003 or 2007 along with syncing calendar events, or with the address book used by Outlook Express or by Windows Mail (depending on the Windoze version) called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only. You may not have Outlook 2003 or 2007, but you have Windows Contacts available.
If Windows Contacts is empty - no contact info, before the first sync enter one contact in Windows Contacts. Make the contact up if needed, which can be deleted later. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. Syncing contacts with Windows Contacts is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
After your contacts are available in Windows Contacts, you can export the contacts from there in a CSV file for import by Yahoo or Gmail.
