Recive a file with dynamic name

Hi All,
I want to receive a file with dynamic name containing date stamp to it.... eg File_20080123.txt , File_20080122.txt etc.
Can anybody suggest how to do it?
Thanks,
Atul

Atul,
Are u using mapping program in ur interface? If yes you can go ahead with ASMA + Dynamic Configurations for renaming the file.
Have u tried this option?
See the below Solution
Check the ASMA File for both sender/receiver channels.
Write the below code UDF in mapping program
//Get Input date. Don't pass anything to this UDF except the Date.
//Map the output to the root node of the target.
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String fname = conf.get(key);
String ret = fname"_"Date
return "";

FTP Activity - mget multiple files with dynamic names

Hello All
Hope all is well.
I was wondering if there was a way to configure FTP activity to transfer multiple files with dynamic names from source location at daily intervals.
For example, my source files are affixed with date values (source_filename_<mmddyyyy>_<hh>.txt):
source_filename_12252009_00.txt
source_filename_12252009_06.txt
source_filename_12252009_12.txt
source_filename_12252009_18.txt
What I would like my process flow to do would be to download just these 4 files once daily based on a dynamic ftp script as follows:
open ${Remote.Host}
${Remote.User}
${Remote.Password}
cd ${Remote.RootPath}
prompt off
mget ????????
quit
In DOS batch script you would have the mget command with a wildcard as:
mget source_filename_%DATE:~0,2%%DATE:~2,2%%DATE:~4,4%*.txt
How does one go about implementing this in OWB? Does it require a user defined substitution varilable of some sort?
FYI, I am using version 10gR2.
Cheers.

Hi ,
If you are able to achieve your objective from a DOS batch script then you can call that script for an User Defined Activity in OWB process flow .
Hope this helps.
Thanks,

Pick the file with dynamic name

Dear All
My scenario is file to idoc.
legacy system generates file with a file name as current date.txt which keeps on changing
eg:   on 9th july file name is 09072009.txt and
       on 10thjuly filename would be 10072009.txt
How do i pick such file and process it?
What should be the File Name in the sender communication channel?
Please help me in resolving this issue
Thanks

Hello Baskar Raj,
    Your requierement can be acheived by using the combination of UDF and ASMA(AdapterSpecifieMessageAttriburrtes) which helps us greatly in meeting dynamic filename rquirements.
1.You have to enable either FIlename,Time stamp or all the he ASMA in the sender side communication channel .
2.Write the UDF that gets the file name (CURRENT DATE.txt)during runtime that is available from enabling ASMA in sender communication channel .
3.change it to the name u want to modify (Replace with the new file name by getting time stamp from the ASMA attributes.
4. Map the UDF output to any of the target nodes(can be messagetype node MT_ur msg type name).
5.Enable ASMA on the target side also in that chek same file name.
Code to be writen in UDF is mentioned by sunilchandra in the below thread u jus need to avoid filename in that and use only date format it will acheive ur requrement.
Re: Regarding Target File name
Thanks,
Ram.

Tag File with dynamic name

I need to include a page with a name I do not know in advance. I can do this with <jsp:include page="${filename}"/>.
Can I also do it somehow using tag files?

Source files with dynamic name

Hi,
Is there a way to load from a variable file name sources, for example file name with date postfix, something like this: INPUT_DEPT_20070313.txt ??
Or i must create an external process in the process flow wich is to rename the file every time to a fix name then load ??
Thanks.

Correct. If you are using SQL*Loader mapping, then put a transformation before the mapping in your process flow. If you are using external tables (PL/SQL mapping), then put a premapping procedure in the mapping. And yes, use UTL_FILE package to rename the file.
Greetings,
Mate

SSIS 2008 - Sending file with dynamic name using FTP task

Hi - Thanks for taking a look - (I'm very new to SSIS.)
I'm trying to create an SSIS 2008 package that does the following:
1) Execute a stored procedure on SQL.
2) Download the results as a CSV file to a 'local' location. The file name is set using a variable ("User::LocalFilePath") dynamically based on the current time:
@[User::LocalFilePath] + "GreatReportName_" + "_" +(DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("yyyy",getdate()) + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("m",getdate()),2) + "_" + Right("0"
+ (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("d",getdate()),2) + "_" + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("hh",getdate()),2) + "_" + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("mi",getdate()),2)
+ "_" + Right("0" + (DT_STR,4,1252) DatePart("ss",getdate()),2) + ".csv"
3) Transfer the CSV file to an FTP site.
4) Delete the CSV file from the 'local' location.
I've been able to do steps 1 and 2 so far. However when trying the move the newly created file to the FTP site I get the error:
"Error: 0xC002917C at Send to FTP, FTP Task: The variable "User::LocalFilePath" doesn't contain file path(s)."
(When I set the "IsLocalPathVariable" to "False" and use a file previously created the file is correctly transferred to the FTP site. This proves that the FTP details are correct and that the "RemotePathVariabe" is working
correctly.)
I have set the variable ("User::LocalFilePath") to "EvaluateAsExpression" in the variable properties.
Can anyone help?
Many Thanks,
UnoT

Hi Vaibhav,
Thanks for your response. I set the "DelayValidation" to "True". However
that didn't make any difference.
I added in all the breakpoints, but it didn't give any results (I may be doing this incorrectly?):
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
UnoT

How to specify Sql Loader input file with dynamic name

The input file name likes pochange_YYYYMMDD.dat which is generated by other program each day.
I want to load this file to a table.
Any help? Thanks a lot

I thought in an excellent strategy to do this:
Conditions:
- you have to have only one file in the folder with the data.
- Independently of the name of that file. A process is always going to change its name to a fix name.
- the controlfile must at another fixed path
the scripts is this one:
joel_sqlloader.bat
ren *.dat always.txt
sqlldr <user>/password data=always.txt control=<another_path>/my_ctl.ctl
- In a folder you will have these files:
* joel_sqlloader.bat
* pochange_YYYYMMDD.dat
- In another folder you will have:
* my_ctl.ctl
Did you get it ?

Importing From Flat File with Dynamic Columns

HI
I am using ssis 2008,i have folder in which I have Four(4) “.txt” files each file will have 2 columns(ID, NAME). I loaded 4
files in one destination, but today I receive one more “.txt” file here we have 3 columns (ID, NAME, JOB) how can I get a message new column will receive in source. And how can I create in extra column in my destination table dynamically …please help me

Hi Sasidhar,
You need a Script Task to read the names and number of columns in the first row of the flat file each time and store it in a variable, then create a staging table dynamically based on this variable and modify the destination table definition if one ore more
new columns need to be added, and then use the staging table to load the destination table. I am afraid there is no available working script for your scenario, and you need some .NET coding experience to achieve your goal. Here is an example you can refer

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I also have a .csv file with the name of a jpeg in one column and a text description of each jpeg in a second column. Is there a way to automatically insert one jpeg (photo) and its corresponding text, each pair on one page, into a Indesign document?

I would also recommend to write the description into the meta data. This would allow to place a text frame above the image and it is possible to add meta information and file name automatically together with the image, when you place it or even in a prepared template.
Meta data information can be written easily in Bridge in the Meta File Workspace.

You might want to make sure your credit card is listed in the billing information associated with your Apple ID (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1918).
Also, to change the From name that appears when you address emails on and iOS device, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap your iCloud email account, tap you iCloud account at the top, tap Mail at the bottom, then enter the name you want to use in the Name field at the top.
To change the From name on your Mac Mail, go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done. Then quit Mail on your Mac and re-open it. Your new From name should now appear in the drop-down list when you compose a new email.

Live view putting a file with no name

So i have a problem (don't know if it's a problem really, but at least an annoyance) with the Live View and Preview in browser features.
When use them, the file transfer window pops up (even if i have told it to stay "hidden") showing the following:
Started: 29.5.2013 15.47
index.php - same - not transferred
Connections:Raspberrypi.php - same - not transferred
styles:common.css - same - not transferred
- error occurred - Access denied. The file may not exist locally, may be open in another program, or there could be a local permission problem.
File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed.
Files skipped: 3
Files with errors: 1
Finished: 29.5.2013 15.47
So the weird lines are those marked with red. It looks like its trying to put a file with no name or extensions at all - and i don't think i have such files on my site. Also the permissions are correct on both the server and my Mac.
My web browser opens up and shows the site perfectly, and if I'm using the Live View, the site shows up well too. The thing is every time I hit F5 to refresh, i have to close the file transfer window. Annoying.
I don't know if it matters but I'm using a Raspberry Pi as my home web server. It has Apache2, PHP 5, MySQL and vsftpd running, and I have been able to use them with no problem earlier.
Hopefully someone knows what I am doing wrong here...
Thanks in adnvance!

Have you enabled Automatic Upload on SAVE? I never FTP files on Save. Way too much risk of error and it takes focus away from my work which is very distracting. See screenshot.

There is no 'Save as' under the file menu. How do I save a file with another name?

Ross,
For the situation you describe, Apple has provided Duplicate and Revert. Use File > Duplicate to reach this menu:

Adobe Acrobat Pro cannot find moved files or files with edited names

Adobe Acrobat X Pro 10.1 cannot find recent files or files with edited names.
For instance, if a PDF file is moved in the hard disk from one foder to another, Acrobat cannot find it when trying to open it via "File - Open Recent File".
Likewise, if the name of the file is changed in the Finder.
Similarly, if a PDF file is open, it is marked with the yellow fluorescent marker of Acrobat, its name is then changed in the Finder and later on you try to save it, Acrobat says that it cannot find such file.
Yet, applications like Microsoft Word do not have any of the above problems. It would be great if Adobe could fix these serious productivity issues, which have plagued Acrobat for many years now.
How to send such feedback to Adobe?

In Pages how do I save a file with another name

In Pages how do I save a file with another name?

I don't know if there is a less cumbersome way to do this (I'm still pretty new to Lion) but This is what I do - since "Save As" seems to be gone with Lion.
I create a duplicate document - then click the red button to close the document - and a dialog box pops up and asks if you want to save the changes - I change the name in there and then save the file under the new name.
You can also save the copy to the desktop - get info - and then change the name if the finder window.
I copied this from the Pages help area. These help instructions were created pre-Lion I'm sure.
Saving a Copy of a Document
If you want to make a copy of your document—to create a backup copy or multiple versions, for example—you can save the document using a different name or location. (You can also automate saving a backup version, as Automatically Saving a Backup Version of a Document describes.)
To save a copy of a document:
Choose File > Save As and specify a name and location.
The document with the new name remains open. To work with the previous version, choose File > Open Recent and choose the previous version from the submenu.
