Is there a function that will retrieve working directory?

I'm writing an application that conjugates Spanish and I'm putting all irregulars into different databases according to their tense. The databases will list the information on what kind of irregular it is as well as other things. In the end there will be two applications, one that conjugates the verbs, and one that i am going to design to update the databases e.g. add new words, change rules, etc. The problem i have is that i would like this application to work not only on my computer but also anyone i want to give it to so they can use it to help study. The only thing is, i don't want to hard-code the path of the databases into my program so, I'm wondering if there's a function that could obtain the directory of say the .java file that is being ran. That way, i could use that directory to construct the path to the databases, and also, it wouldn't be hard to go from one computer to another. The only system requirements would be that the computer has the jdk installed. I don't want to do anything fancy, no packaging or compiling into an executable, or compiling into a .jar or compiling an auto-installer. I simply want the end result to be a folder with the .java files and the databases. then, i can include a readme that tells how to use javac to compile the application, and a batch file that simply has the command: java filename.java.
Thanks for your time,

Is your data read only? If so you should treat is as a "resource", e.g. use getResourceAsStream() from the a class or classloader to access it. That will look for it in the same place that the .class files live.

Function Module that will retrieve the parameters for a given function Modu

Hi
We have a requirement where we will be calling Function Module that will be maintained in a table entry. How we will determine what is the parameters that is required by this function module. Is there a FM that will suffice the requirement.
Thanks in advance
arghadip

Hi,
You have to write a custom code for that. Use the table FUPARAREF to retrieve the parameters for a function module. Give function module name as input.
Pls reward points if solved your issue.

I have an iphone 4s, I installed Vtok but the video chatting part of the app is not working when I try to chat with my husband through gmail on his PC. Can I fix this or is there another app that will let me chat with my gmail chat contacts?

Vtok video chatting is not working on my iphone 4s. When I try to do a video chat with my gmail chat contacts who are using a PC we each only get the voice part of the chat and no video. Is there some way to fix this or is there another program that will let me video chat with my gmail chat contacts? Thank you.

You can not merge accounts.
Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

In the garage I have a Netgear Router. it is connected by a ethernet cable, I have a 1tb drive that I want to use there. On the drive there is only a USB port. on the Netgear there is only ethernet ports. is there an adapter that will work for that?

It's not that simple. You need a "smart" device to connect a hard drive to, like a Time Capsule, or another computer, or an Airport Extreme/Express that was made to share a drive, or some other brand router that has a USB port for sharing a drive, etc.

Am I candidate for QT Pro, or is there something else that will work better

Hello,
So, I've been playing a bit with some short home video stuff - and now that we actually have some space to burn in iDisk - I would like to start uploading some video to our iWeb sites.
Upon my first attempt of doing such - I was met with a pop-up window in iWeb that told me the file was huge - and I would be best to convert it in QT Pro by way of exporting it. When I tried to do such via the export option - it was greyed out, that is unless I purchase the Pro version.
My question is - do I really need to purchase additional software to do this, and if so - is QT pro the program to go with, or is there something else that will be able to do what I need for the very limited amount of "video" that I plan to do?
Thanx,
-A-

Assuming you edited in iLife ,e.g. iMovie you can export to QT formats from there vs. paying for QT Pro, opening and then exporting from QT which will just do the same thing with some more options.
Idea: Open the file in MPEG Streamclip (free) and you can export to various iTunes formats without knowing a thing about exporting and pay zero for the privilege and probably do a better job of it. Use Streamclip version 1.9b3 , export to MPEG-4 and then press the iTunes button and pick a format you like. You will find even the basic to iPod setting at 320X240 will make very good quality videos that upscale to 640X480 well and are nicely small.

Is there a function that uses Get_DAQ_Device_Info - device_type_code to get info

Is there a function that uses Get_DAQ_Device_Info - device_type_code to get info on the hardware characteristics such as a list of available gains or A/D converter resolution?

Duncan;
When calling Get_DAQ_Device_Info we get most of the information for our board. For example: the base address, calibration status, counter type, serial number, device type code, DMA and Interrupt levels, etc.
At this moment we do not have any function that will let us know the number of channels of a certain device and the configuration mode supported by the board.
However, you can use the Init_DA_Boards to retrieve what type of board is installed on the machine at a given time, and to have a look up table with the available gains for the possible boards that can be used on your application.
Hope this helps.

CS4 will not open Nikon D7000 NEF files; Is there a DNC that will open them?

I have CS4 and Light Room 2
Apparently there is no Camera Raw update for the new Nikon D7000 NEF files for CS4.
I therefore down loaded the Adobe Digital Negative Converter Verson 6.3.0.79 which is compatible with Camera Raw 5.4 or later.
Using that DNC, when I do step 1, "Select the images to convert" I get the message "No items match your search". It apparently is not recongnizing the D7000 NEF files.
Is there another DNC that will open and convert the D7000 NEF files?

I just bought the d7000 yesterday and was experiencing the same issue with cs4. I downloaded the DNG converter from adobe and selected the whole folder where the raw files were located (I was unable to select individual images) and it worked fine. It processed the files one by one with new name (without the $500 CS5 pricetag for now). The DNG files open in bridge and psd. Perhaps try selecting the folder? Good luck.

I have a large wrist (10.0" around). Is there a band that will fit me?

I have a large wrist (10.0" around). Is there a band that will fit me?

I have 230mm wrist. Sounds like you have 254mm wrist. I believe the large leather band may work for you. I encourage you to try it on in store first.
I can only just get the milanese loop over my hand.
The classic buckle I have to do up on the last hole and it has no length in the band to create more holes.
Note: if the classic buckle did not do up for me, I was prepared to go and by a matching 3rd party watch band (20mm width) and make an extension strap from it. I.e. cut the new band two about two inches long and punch a hole in it and fit it between the two parts of the Apple Classic Buckle band.
Or, wait for 3rd party adapters to start shipping so you can fit any normal watch band to the Apple Watch.

Is there a calculation that will automatically turn a whole number into a percentage or decimal poin

For example I have a formula where I need to input the sales tax. Currently they only way it works is if I input it in decimal form. Is there a formula that will calculate that for me? So rather then inputting .06 I can just type 6%.

Actually you could add an additional item
Sales Tax Percentage (could be place anywhere on the Form)
then change tax formula to Tax = (Subtotal * (Sales Tax*0.01))
I'll see if I can create a sample PDF
Okay here is sample:
https://acrobat.com/?d=U5lHNjlDgJD3Zc666qVrLw
Your welcome to download see how I created the calculations.
I'm sure someone else will come along and suggest a simplified method. I choose this method so that a number for the Sales Tax per could be entered per area. It could be renamed VAT for Europe. and if it uses 1/2 percentages change format for 1 decimal place.
OH Command+D (Mac) Is Properties for entire form. Not individual cells to do that In Form Fomatting click on Item with Control key pressed down. When Context menu pops up choose Properties. Then you can set properties for individual form fields.
I've updated the test form now all calculation work as they should. (had to rename some field names)

Is there a tutorial that will help in creating a RS232 driver?

I am attempting to write a driver / VI that will control an Animatics "SmartMoter" via a RS232 port. I was able to download sub VI's from www.summerfiles.com.
Is there a tutorial that will help in creating a driver for a RS232 port? I take it that I will need to connect these sub vi's in a correct sequence to be able to communicate through the RS232 port.
Thanks,
Bill

It seems that what you downloaded is a driver. What you need to determine is how to use the functions on the driver to create a high level application. There is a tutorial at http://zone.ni.com/devzone/cda/tut/p/id/2804 that might be useful. The driver you downloaded is lacking in several areas. One of which is documention. Each VI should include a description of what it is and what it does. Each control/indicator should also include a description. I could not find any such information in these VIs. I didn't look at everything because the horrid front panel colors in the SmartMotor.llb was giving me a headache. I did see a VI called SM Tester. This appears to be a high level example that you could use as a model.

Is there any function that output address by inputing the address no.?

Is there any function that accept an address number as input paramenter and return an address so that I don't need to build it myself?
Thanks!

FU ADDRESS_INTO_PRINTFORM        ADDRESS_TYPE
Text
Address type: 1,2,3 or ' '(default)
Description
There are three address types:
Address type '1': 'Normal' address (company or organization); the address structure used in most SAP applications as 'Address'.
Address type '2': Address of a person
Address type '3': Work address, usually the address of a contact person in a company
The default address type SPACE is treated as type '1' and is required for the upwards compatibility of the function module.
The interface parameters ADRSWA_IN and ADRSWA_OUT are only used in address type SPACE.
The other address types use:
ADDRESS_1 or ADDRESS_2 or ADDRESS_3 for the attributes, and
SENDER_COUNTRY, RECEIVER_LANGUAGE, NUMBER_OF_LINES, STREET_HAS_PRIORITY and LINE_PRIORITY for control.
The parameters COUNTRY_NAME_IN_RECEIVER_LANGU, LANGUAGE_FOR_COUNTRY_NAME and NO_UPPER_CASE_FOR_CITY are address type-independent.
The address attributes can be read directly instead of being passed in the structures ADDRESS1/2/3, if the address is in the Central Address Management tables.
The Business Address Services keys must be passed instead of the structures ADDRESS1/2/3:
Address type 1: ADDRESS_NUMBER
Address type 2: ADDRESS_NUMBER and PERSON_NUMBER
Address type 3: ADDRESS_NUMBER and PERSON_NUMBER

Is there an App that will sync with microsoft outlook calender?

Is there an App that will sync with microsoft outlook calender?

OK here is a problem I have with my calender- all the events are added mutible times for each event- at least 4 of each. So how do I get all of these mutiable events down to just one event. Now this also includes hollidays and personel events on the calender from outlook. All this I think happened after sync to Cloud- not sure, could have happened after OS 5 update!!! Now this is on my iPhone 4. Now going to my calender on my home computer in outlook no events or holidays are showing in the outlook my calender. If I go to the icloud calender it has mutiable events and holidays like on my iPhone. Now how do I fix this without causing a problem with my other programs?
