How to handle flat file with variable delimiters in the file sender adapter

Hi friends,
I have some flat files in the ftp server and hope to poll them into XI, but before processing in XI, I hope to do some content conversion in the file sender adapter, according to the general solution, I just need to specify the field names, field seperator, end seperator, etc. But the questions is:
The fileds in the test data may have different amount of delimiters (,), for example:
ORD01,,,Z4XS,6100001746,,,,,2,1
OBJ01,,,,,,,,,,4,3
Some fileds only have 1 ',' as the delimiter, but some of them have multiple ','.
How can I handle it in the content conversion?

Bean

Serving up files with Russian chars in the file name

Anyone know how to get CF 8 to serve up CFM files with
Russian characters in the file name? I can get IIS to server up
.html files but .cfm files turn in to ?????????.cfm files.
For example, this:
новостииобновления.cfm
becomes this ??????????????.cfm and throws a CF error (File Not
Found) when clicking on the link. The strange thing is I can see
the Russian characters in the status bar when I mouse over the link
but CF can't handle it. And IIS will serve up the file and replace
all the chars with their URL entity equivalent.
Any suggestions on how to fix?

Open the Script Editor or AppleScript Editor in one of the subfolders of Applications and run the following:
tell application "Finder" to quit
if (do shell script "defaults read com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles") is "1" then
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 0"
else
do shell script "defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles 1"
end if
delay 2
tell application "Finder" to run
If you change your mind later, run the script again.

Read Document in FileUtilities cannot search a file with french character in the file name

Hi,
I am trying to search a file with french character in the file name like 'captures écran.doc' in my unix server directory, and Write the file somewhere, say in a list of documents or, write on file system to another directory.
I am using to Read Document in FileUtilities of Foundation, but it cannot read the file due to french character in its name. Although it can find any other file name without these french characters.
Tried renaming but that also cannot find the file with french character name.
Please provide any idea to solve it using LC operation.
Regards,
Rohan Raj.

Hi Thomas,
Thanks for the post, but I have already found a solution to it a month ago. Sorry for not posting the solution.
You just have to set the '-Djava.property.file.encoding=ISO8859-1' into JVM argument of your server startup, and bounce the server back to pick the new JVM arg set. And now the service Read Document in FileUtilities of Foundation will read all french characters.
ISO8859-1refers to "Latin alphabet no. 1," consisting of 191 characters from the Latin script. This character-encoding scheme is used throughout The Americas,Western Europe, Oceania, and much of Africa. It is also commonly used in most standard romanizations of East-Asian languages.

Rohan Raj.

How to save Buffered Image with variable transparency in a file.

Hi,
I need to save BufferedImage (type ARGB) in a file.
Transparency in this image is a function of position. Who knows, what would be the best suggestion for type of file to store this image (probably not JPEG) and which package would be appropriate. A sample of code would be higly desirable. Please help, thank you in advance.

Your can use the ImageIO-API if your software runs under JVM1.4 or you must use the JAI (Advanced Imaging API) ...

I can't open pdf files with Ibooks app. The files open for some seconds and then they disappear! Thanks

Files open and disappear in few seconds!

It sounds like the app is crashing for whatever reason. Start with simple, easy things.
Quit iBooks and restart the iPad.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
If those things do not help - you may want to consider deleting the iBooks app and reinstall it. Make sue that all of your books and pdf files have been backed up and synced with iTunes before you delete the app.

Reading flat files with variable names in SSIS

I have a ssis package that reads a flat file from a network drive (using a flat file connection manager) and loads the data into sql server tables. I have this working on a fixed file name, however in reality the file name will not be the
same from run to run.      Essentially, I need to check a folder each day and if there is a file there with a certain prefix (for example, 'datafile'), I need to process this file(s). In other words, if there is a file in the folder
called datafilexyz, my process needs to read it in and process it.    If there are files named datafileabc, datafiledef, and testfile123, I need to read in and process the datafileabc and datafiledef flat files.
I'm not sure how to make this work.     I haven't had any SSIS training, just what I can find on the internet and looking at existing SSIS packages (I haven't found any that do what I'm trying to do here) so I'm kind of lost.
Any help is appreciated.

this is working well.    How can I, after loading each flat file, move the flat file to an archive folder?    I'm trying to use a file system task, but doing something wrong.    I created and reference
an archive folder connection manager in the destination connection, and reference the original folder connection manager for the source connection, but get 'sourcepath is not valid on operation movefile'.    I think a file system task is what
is needed (within the foreach loop after the data load for each flat file), but I'm not doing something correctly.
Sounds fine except for one thing. Did you assign the filename variable to connection string property of the source file connection manager used by file system task?
Also it should be existing file option you should choose for
source connection and existing folder for destination.

How do I create an interactive PDF file with variable data

We would like to basically do a 'mail merge' of our list of customers with an interactive PDF file (including videos, menus, etc - not just form fill out and web links) to create a single PDF file that contains multiple mail pieces ... one for each customer ... with each mail piece being customized for that customer. Customizations would include different greetings (Dear Bob, Dear Dana, etc), as well as different charts based on data unique to the customer, different photographs, etc.
I've seen that InDesign and Acrobat Professional can be used to create an interactive PDF (such as from http://tv.adobe.com/watch/ask-the-adobe-ones/14-calling-rufus-about-interactive-pdf-making). However I don't understand how I can insert data from a database, csv file, excel file etc into the PDF file so that each page, or each set of pages, within the PDF can be customized.
Can anyone point me to a tool to use for this?
Thanks,
Bob Kendall

For that kind of volume and unattended operation, you want InDesign Server – which is the server/high volume edition of INDD.

How to run execute immdiate with variables

Hi friends,
How to run execute immdiate with variables in v_stmt below?
I dont know how to declare the value of i here.
Set serveroutput on;
DECLARE
   i        VARCHAR (20);
   v_stmt   VARCHAR2 (100);
   CURSOR c
   IS
      SELECT sqlid FROM temp1;
BEGIN
   OPEN c;
   LOOP
      FETCH c INTO i;
      EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (i);
      v_stmt := 'select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor('&i',null))'
      execute immediate v_stmt;
   END LOOP;
   CLOSE c;
END;
/Regds,
Kunwar.

You first need to use a bind variable (named ':v' in SQL statement in my example):
set serveroutput on;
DECLARE
   i        VARCHAR (20);
   v_stmt   VARCHAR2 (100);
   CURSOR c
   IS
       -- modified for a quick test
      SELECT sql_id FROM v$sql where child_number > 2;
BEGIN
   OPEN c;
   LOOP
      FETCH c INTO i;
      EXIT WHEN c%NOTFOUND;
      DBMS_OUTPUT.put_line (i);
      v_stmt := 'select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(:v,null))';
      execute immediate v_stmt using i;
   END LOOP;
   CLOSE c;
END;
/However because your SELECT statement returns several rows you need to adapt your code to process all rows returned (as already suggested in first reply to your message).
Instead of using PL/SQL, I recommend to generate a SQL file using only SQL and then to run the generated SQL file.
For example:
spool edx.sql
set serveroutput on
declare
v_stmt varchar2(100);
v_q char(1):='''';
begin
dbms_output.put_line('spool edx.log');
for s in (select sql_id from v$sql where child_number >2)
loop
dbms_output.put_line('select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor(' || v_q || s.sql_id || v_q || ',null));');
end loop;
dbms_output.put_line('exit');
end;
spool ofThis generates a SQL file similar to :
spool edx.log
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor('5rygsj4dbw6jt',null));
select * from table(dbms_xplan.display_cursor('5rygsj4dbw6jt',null));

How to use PDF files with links to other PDF Files

How to use a PDF file with links to other PDF files that have been transferred to the same folder

Are you using a mouse, or a trackpad on a laptop? Either way, your cursor is usually an arrow, right? And presumably it's working/moving MOST of the time, otherwise you wouldn't be able to do anything?
For example, can you move the cursor arrow to the "Annotate" tool to click on it and go into Annotate mode? If so, can you click on the text tool? If so, does the cursor change to a crosshairs? At what point can you NOT move the cursor around the screen?
