About 'External data' and 'Procedure' option in PLD

Hi all,
Can u please tell me what is the use of 'procedure' option in PLD.we can get this option when we select any text then in the genral tab of properties if we select field type as 'EXTERNAL DATA' then in the content tab we get source type 'PROCEDURE NAME'.
Please give me example of this.

chetan,
You can use external data field to display
company logo,Signatures etc., that is of legal importance.
Create company logos's/signatures and run it as a dll file.
Add dll file in procedure name in external data field.

"Delete data and restore" option in Nokia N8

I want to restore my N8 to fresh state as I have installed and uninstalled too many apps and they all have created and left a lot of files on C drive even after uninstalling them. They have ocupied some space on C drive.
I am going for "Delete data and restore" option in phone management. I will back up all data with Nokia Suite before the procedure. I just want to know what all apps which are installed by default will be lost. Please enumerate every app or thing that will be lost.
I know that default wallpapers, songs will be lost. I'm interested in default apps only. Likes dictionary, Zip, Communicator, Video editor, Photo editor, My Nokia, Recorder, Shazam, Msg. reader, Adobe reader, Nat Geo, Movie Teasers, YouTube, E! etc. I have mentioned most here, may have missed some. Please enlist in detail.
Thanks a lot.
One more thing, this are should be improved by Nokia-uninstalling any app should remove it completely without any footprints.

If you go to this page (and are logged in to the store) you will find all apps your previously downloaded and these are the apps that will be removed when you do a full reset. You can re-install them again afterwards provided you have not done so 10 times before.
Please follow the steps below if you decide to completely reset your N8 and start with a fresh device:
If you have data on the N8-00 you wish to keep create a backup using Nokia Suite but when asked deselect the option to include settings in the backup. You can start a backup through Tools>Backup in the Nokia Suite menu.
Now disconnect your N8-00 from the PC and select the offline profile, press the on/off switch and from the menu which appears select and activate the profile offline.
Enter the code *#7370# followed by the security code 12345. Please be aware this reset may take a while. Your N8-00 will restart when finished.
After the N8-00 restarts go through the Device First Use sequence to setup the N8-00 correctly.
Now connect the N8-00 to your PC again and let Nokia Suite install the requires files on N8-00. After this (re)install the latest system update. When you go to the update screen in Nokia Suite your will either be presented by a system update or you can choose to re-install the current (up to date) version again.
After the update verify if there are any additional updates and install these as well.
After this you can restore the backup if you made one.

The filter expression is on external data and could not be validated.

The filter expression is on external data and could not be validated. It may not be supported in Web browser forms.
I am reciveing this error in my infopath 2010 browser form when I am trying to filter a drop down list from sharepoint.
I thought filters were available on infopath 2010 browser forms or are they only available from values inside the form?
I did have a look around the forums but only could find this error occuring during beta stage.
Thanks

Ok, so you shouldn't be filtering in the form, because that means it downloads the entire list first and then filters out the items. That's client-side filtering. What you want to do is server-side filtering by doing a parameterized query.
Set the data connection NOT to automatically download
Add Form Load rules that do the following:
First, "Set a Field's Value" and set the position query node of the data connection to the value of "manager" (whatever the exact syntax is)
Then query the data connection
Doind this should make it ONLY download items where position=manager instead of downloading all items and filtering. This is a much better practice and was not even available in 2007, so you should make full use of it in 2010. Even so, what you
were doing should have worked anyway, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
When you do the filtered dropdown, your Source field should be the repeating group of the data connection, not the property itself. The property should only be selected in Value and DisplayName. The group should be in the Source field, and THAT'S
where you apply the filter.

Interaction about applications data and notification timeout

Hi Experts,
I have an issue about a workflow that the reminder notifications be sent every day, the workflow stage has a property "Days to Respond", the workflow can sent the reminder notifications by the value before, but it sent the reminder notifications every day now, regardless the property value.
The reminder notifications has timeout attribute "RESPONSE_TIMEOUT", the Note:1053545.1 output shows that the attribute value is 365, the due_date of wf_notifications shows that it equals the next day of begin_date.
I try to find the interaction of application data and the workflow Notification node timeout, but I didn't find any clue in the workflow developer guide, or the admin guide.
What's the mechanism of application data and workflow? ("Days to Respond" value with the Notification node timeout) Could anyone point the clue of the issue?
Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks,
Tsinhua.

The "Days to Respond" will be set to the workflow attribute "RESPONSE_TIMEOUT" if the attribute value is null, it be set by the post-function of a node.
As customer set the workflow attribute value "RESPONSE_TIMEOUT" as 365, so the "Days to Respond" value is discarded yet, the notification reminder must be timeoutted in one day.

Two basic, related questions about external HDs and trashing/erasing

I have a couple of questions about using an external hard drive that I can't seem to get answered by surfing around. They'll probably seem stupid and basic, but ... Here they are:
1. When you drag a file from your external hard drive to the trash, does that file actually transfer to the main hard drive's trash, and thus the main hard drive? For instance, say I'm deleting a 4 GIG file. Will I temporarily add 4 GIGs to my main drive in the process of deleting it?
2. With a multipartitioned ext. drive, can you erase the contents of a single partition with the disk utility, thus bypassing having to drag-trash everything on that partition?
Thanks.
G5 iMac Mac OS X (10.4.2) Powerbook (10.4.6)

1. No. The files are moved to an invisible .Trash directory on the external volume. No copying of data takes place between volumes when you move stuff to the trash.
2. Yes. You can use Disk Utility to erase or securely erase just a single Volume on a disk, leaving the other volumes unaffected. Simply click on the name of the Volume in the left pane of Disk Utilitly, click on the Erase tab in the right pane, and choose the options you want for erasing the volume.

HT4847 I am trying to uncheck the data and documents option for storing this information in iCloud, however, the only option I am given is to cancel the request or to remove them from my Mac (but not iCloud apparently). This is wrong! Any ideas?

It seems that--now that I have purchased storage from iCloud--I will be forced to store my documents, data, etc there and do not have the option of choosing not to store information. I tried to uncheck my documents and data option and the only choice I was given was to cancel the request or to have all the documents removed from my Mac! I cannot sign out and sign back in either. I restarted my computer but that hasn't helped either. Does anyone know what to do about this? It's crazy that Apple would hold my data hostage and offer me the option of using this service or not having access to my own information EXCEPT in iCloud. I wish I'd researched it more before I tried it. Buyer beware.

Artist asks about bandwidth constraints and blogging options

I converted to Mac two months ago and am loving what I can do. I am creating two websites using iWeb '09 (not published yet). It occurred to me that knowing a few things about bandwidth and blogs would help me create better web sites.
I am a professional artist working in a variety of media. For the last three years I have had a professionally created web site that is "hosted" by the web designer. I would like to replace that website with one that I am creating in iWeb. I am considering getting a hosting package with 1 & 1 (although from the answers I am reading on the forum, that may not be necessary). I purchased my domain name through 1 & 1 years ago and will continue to use it. (I have been reading how to do that in the forum).
My artist website will have many pages and many images. When I add the second website, I plan to have an active blog where I encourage people to include pictures in their comments. This would mean even more traffic, downloads, and uploads of images per month. Obviously I am looking in increase traffic to both sites. I am concerned about potentially exceeding the bandwidth permitted.
The Mobile Me package I purchased when I bought the computer has 20 GB of iDisk storage and 200 GB data transfer per month. (I understand that that is expandable to up to 60 GB/600GB. *Do you recommend I increase my package when I publish or can I purchase the additional bandwidth as I get close to capacity?)*
*By the way, if my site were hosted by 1 & 1, for instance, do I still need to stay in the Mobile Me permitted monthly data transfer bandwidth in the package?.*
Because I will now have the ability to update the content of my artist website as of often as needed, I will no longer need the Blogger hosted blog I am currently using (which is under a domain name I purchased through 1 & 1) . I am considering converting that Blogger account (or creating another) to the blog host for my second website (through an external link to my second web site). *However, it is my understanding that if I did that I would not be able to receive comments. Is that correct?*
I like the idea of linking to the Blogger account because of it's bandwidth. I could of course decide not create a second website and just use a Blogger account for the blog I want to create. However Blogger's layout does not allow as much room or flexibility of layout for telling the story of the project effectively.
Alternately I could dump the Blogger blog altogether and use my blog pages within my second Mobile Me website. But again it is the bandwidth issue because I want to encourage uploads of images from people commenting.
Alternately I have looked into creating a whole new Blog using Wordpress and have it completely freestanding and not related to my Mobile me account. However, if possible I would prefer to use a less complicated solution. I still have so much I am having fun learning about the things I can do with my iMac.
Any suggestions?

By the way, if my site were hosted by 1 & 1, for instance, do I still need to stay in the Mobile Me permitted monthly data transfer bandwidth in the package?.
The bandwidth you use, ie the amount of data transferred by you and your vistors, is calculated where you host your pages.
If you have no pages/images hosted at MobileMe than nothing is counted. If you host your pages/images at 1and1, then they do the counting.
And before you buy more space, first check what you actually use. At MobileMe : your user account.
20GB is 20.000.000.000 bytes. (to keep it simple)
Use a calculator to do the math.
I want to encourage uploads of images from people commenting.
The blog at MobileMe allows comments with attachments. That means that any visitor can upload anything. Also garbage.

Doubts about "due date" and "overdue date" configuration

Hello,
On transaction FB5LN or FBL1N is possible to view the status of the items, and those statuses are referred to a "Net Due Date Symbol".
Doubts:
1) I want to know what is the difference between the "item is overdue" symbol and the "item is due" symbol?
2) In our company the "due item" if configured as D (today) and the "overdue item" is as D+1 (ie. tomorrow), where can I configure those dates?
Regards,
Adriano Cardoso

Hi
I don't think you can configure anything to differentiate between Due and overdue. They have a simple English meaning. If an item falls due today based on payment terms, then it is shown "Due" in FBL1n. If the same item is not paid till tomorrow and if you see it tomorrow in FBL1n, it will be shown as "overdue".

A question about: Logical data and Physical data

Dear all,
please anyone tell me, can datas in logical entity(view) be imported/exported into the Physical entity(table)?
In fact, I have two tables to store datas now, but our client changed their requirements: they want to make them into a single table to store these datas. you know, if we do these, many codings/designing works must be done(changed), so I want to create a view to implement their requirments, but this will cause aother problem, coz these datas will be import/copy into the other database in the future, I did not have any experience in importing/exporting, so can you tell me?
My English maybe poor, can you understand what is my problem?
thanks.
Pionner.

When you move from (0,0) to (0,Y), only the second axis will rotate. Therefore, no pulse will be sent will be sent from encoder 1 to your DAQ card. A possible work around is to use breakpoints which will allow you to send a pulse when certain positions are reached. For more information on this, please refer to the attached example.

When I run iTunes 10 and Safari 5.1 for a while my iMac 2.8 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo slows down and iTunes grinds to a stop. It seems to be something about my data. The techs couldn't explain it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My 2007 iMac slows and freezes while I'm using Safari and iTunes. The iTunes window freezes while music continues to play. Then music can begin stuttering. I have to press the power button to restart becuase I can't access the Apple pull down menu to force quit. The techs I use couldn't figure it out. It seems to be something about my data and not the applications. It's running correctly right now. Does anyone have any suggestions? They would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

How do you export iPhoto albums to an external drive and have all the albums still labeled?

I am having an issue exporting the iphoto albums to an external drive. When I do it, it either just drops all the pictures in together or it separates them by events, but my iphotos are arranged in albums, not events so that doesn't help. Can anyone help with this?
Also, I'm new to mac and i'm noticing iphotos has a lot of limitations...I can't save photos automatically to folders/albums in iphoto bc it doesnt show in the finder, I can't upload to facebook without doing it from iphoto, and I obviously can't save to external drive easily just yet. Should I just be saving all of my photos in Pictures in the finder? Is there a way you can save them in pictures and then be able to open them in iphotos? I'm getting so frustrated and ready to go back to my PC. =(

A couple of general comments:
1. iPhoto is not compulsory. You don't have to use it.
2. But if you do, then you're going to need to make a small conceptual leap, and learn just a little.
The Conceptual Leap: Your Files and your Photos are not the same thing. The illustration I use is as follows: In my iTunes Library I have a file called 'Let_it_Be_The_Beatles.mp3'. So what is that, exactly? It's not the song. The Beatles never wrote an mp3. They wrote a tune and lyrics. They recorded it and a copy of that recording is stored in the mp3 file. So the file is just a container for the recording. That container is designed in a specific way attuned to the characteristics and requirements of the data. Hence, mp3.
Similarly, that Jpeg is not your photo, it's a container designed to hold that kind of data. iPhoto is all about the data and not about the container. So, regardless of where you choose to store the file, iPhoto will manage the photo, edit the photo, add metadata to the Photo but never touch the file. If you choose to export - unless you specifically choose to export the original - iPhoto will export the Photo into a new container - a new file containing the photo.
The Learning: iPhoto replaces the Finder (or file browser) for everything to do with your Photo. And I do mean everything. Organising, Editing, sharing with other apps, printing, uploading, whatever are all done either with or via iPhoto. It's you "go-to" for anything to do with your Photos.
The upshot of that is that how (or where) the files are stored doesn't matter - as long as they are safe and backed up - because after importing to iPhoto you never directly access those files again.
So, you want to organise your Photos: do it in the iPhoto Window. Events, Albums, Keywords, and so on. You do all your work via that window or the media browsers that make the Library available in every app in the OS.
So: want to edit a photo, but not with iPhoto? You can set Photoshop (or any image editor) as an external editor in iPhoto. (Preferences -> General -> Edit Photo: Choose from the Drop Down Menu.) This way, when you double click a pic to edit in iPhoto it will open automatically in Photoshop or your Image Editor, and when you save it it's sent back to iPhoto automatically. This is the only way that edits made in another application will be displayed in iPhoto.
How to access the Photos for whatever reason you may need them see this user tip:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4491
For details of the Export dialogue: https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
You can more or less recreate your folder tree in the iPhoto Window - start at the bottom of your tree and drag folder of images to the Albums Heading. iPhoto will import the images and make an album of them. Then File -> New Folder and drag the Album to that. Folders can hold nested folders and Albums. And so work from there.
But if your folder tree is date based that's a bit pointless, as the Calendar search and Smart Albums make it pretty redundant. With these you can find any photos from a specific day, week, month, year or date-range in the Library.
If the folder tree is theme based, then keywords will a more effective way of working.
And Albums are more flexible that folders in the Finder, as an image can be in any number of Albums and use no extra disk space whatever.
So, it's a whole new way of working with photos for you.
To your specific questions:
I am having an issue exporting the iphoto albums to an external drive. When I do it, it either just drops all the pictures in together or it separates them by events, but my iphotos are arranged in albums, not events so that doesn't help
Export them one album at a time.
This User Tip
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4921
has details of the options in the Export dialogue.
But given the above... why are you doing this? You're defeating the non-destructive workflow by doing it. Are you trying to back up?
.I can't save photos automatically to folders/albums in iphoto bc it doesnt show in the finder,
Not clear exactly what you're asking here, but does the above open some ideas?
I can't upload to facebook without doing it from iphoto
Yeah you can... For help accessing your photos in iPhoto see this user tip:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4491
It's the first one...
and I obviously can't save to external drive easily just yet.
Yeah you can but what exactly are you trying to save, and, again, why? Different purposes have different workflows.
Should I just be saving all of my photos in Pictures in the finder?
That's a personal choics, but not if you plan on using iPhoto. And as I started with iPhoto is not compulsory... As to why you shouldn't with iPhoto:

Reasons for bothering to learn...
I use Events simply as big buckets of Photos: Spring 08, July - Nov 06 are typical Events in my Library. I use keywords and Smart Albums extensively. I title the pics broadly.
I keyword on a
Who
What
Where basis (The When is in the photos's Exif metadata). I also rate the pics on a 1 - 5 star basis.
Using this system I can find pretty much find any pic in my 50k library in a couple of seconds.
So, for example, I have a batch of pics titled 'Seattle 08' and a typical keywording might include: John, Anne, Landscape, mountain, trees, snow. With a rating included it's so very easy to find the best pics we took at Mount Rainier.
File -> New Smart Album
set it to 'All"
title contains Seattle
keyword is mountain
keyword is snow
rating is 5 stars
Or, want a chronological album of John from birth to today?
New Smart Album
Keyword is John
Set the View options to Sort By Date Ascending
Want only the best pics?
add Rating is greater than 4 stars
The best thing about this system is that it's dynamic. If I add 50 more pics of John to the Library tomorrow, as I keyword and rate them they are added to the Smart Album.
In the end, organisation is about finding the pics. The point is to make locating that pic or batch of pics findable fast. This system works for me.

After installing or upgrading to Firefox 31, starting Firefox does not show homepage, customize shows a blank page and the option button does not work

I am the Windows admin for a university department and install PCs with Firefox all the time. This problem does not happen with every PC I maintain, only a select few (different model laptops with Windows 8.1 and update 1.) Until today, it only happened with new user accounts (with admin rights) that I setup on the laptops for our staff. Today this happened with The Administrator account while setting up a new laptop. In all cases so far, I install Windows from a saved image that was created using sysprep.
I have tried the many suggestions of resetting Firefox, deleting the users Firefox profile, deleting the users Windows profile, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox, uninstalling/reinstalling Firefox and the latest Java, but nothing helps. After uninstalling, I run an app to delete temp files and caches and will even manually remove registry keys HKLM\SOFTWARE\Mozilla and HKCU\SOFTWARE\Mozilla. Plus I reboot and make sure the install folder is deleted after uninstall.
Results are the same: after installing Firefox 31, the initial setup window for migrating IE and/or Chrome pops up and after clicking the Finish button, Firefox starts, but does not show the initial new user page, only a blank page. Clicking on the Options button (3 bars) does nothing. Right-clicking in the proper area, the popup menu appears so I can choose to Customize, but that only opens another tab with about:customize in the URL and the page is blank. From the right-click popup menu, I can enable the Menu Bar and get to Options from that.
My latest attempt has helped a little. I uninstalled Firefox 31, cleaned up, deleted user Firefox profile, rebooted and then installed Firefox 30. Inital startup runs, and tells me I'm not up to date, and the Options button works. But I still cannot customize.
I then upgraded to Firefox 31, but then it's back to no startup page, no options button and no customize. I can downgrade to 30 and get all but customize working again.
Only Addon is one for McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which just after installing is disabled.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Ok. I disabled hardware acceleration. The only extension is the McAfee Scriptscan for Firefox 15.1.0, which was already disabled. I then disabled all plugins (Acrobat, Google Update, Intel Identity Protection (2x), Java Deployment Toolkit, Java Platform, MS Office 2013, Quicktime, Shockwave, Silverlight), which were all up to date.
Normal or safe mode still has same result. No startup, no option button and no customize.
Thanks for your help. Got any other suggestions?

How to get server date and time using java code

Hi,
I'm new to java. I have one doubt about getting date and time of the server. can anyone give some sample code to get that.
thanks in regards
Gopi.

you need 2 things
1. something on the application server which exposes the servers time/date
2. something on the client which makes use of your time service
for instance, you could write a ServerTimeServlet that clients can call to get the time according to the server. or, if you've got a database in the server, often database software will provide a Time procedure or similar that does this, so you can use a simple SQL query to get the latest time

Form Data and Automation

I have a few questions about collecting data and automating a process with a form. I've created a sample form to illustrate my questions.
I would like to create a PDF form which could be distributed among workers at an office. I'll send the form to the office manager and won't know how many people will use it or how many times it will be distributed. I realize I could create a webpage form to accomplish the same thing but I don't to require users to go to a website, register, and then submit the form. I think a form (if feasible) may be more user-friendly considering the users.
Questions...
1. I'd like the data to be collected in a database on my server. This shouldn't be an issue in a stand alone form but how would the following criteria effect this?
2. When the data is stored into a database on my server, this triggers an automatic email to whatever company was checked under #1 (lite pink). Could a copy of the form be sent to each company sent without disclosing the other companies solicited? Only part of the form is visible? With comments, you can display but not print. Is there a way to use these capabilities for something like this?
3. I'd like capture who's using the form so info in 2, 3, and 4 (red). Its important for me to collect feedback from the user on the effectiveness of this form. Did the companies reply with a price?
4. I would like the companies to answer specific questions about their product (yellow). For example, specific price, warranty or delivery. Sometimes when asking companies for this information, they may or may not provide all this information in their response. By using this form as the platform for their response, the company would need to answer the specific information. So, can this form then be sent back to the user after completed by the company?
5. The company my want to attach a written proposal along with the information on this form (green). Can they attach to the form?
I assume other systems will need to be developed in conjunction with the PDF to accomplish this wishlist. Essentially, i want the PDF form to be the conduit for communication back and forth between the parties and I want to capture the data behind the scenes in my server. This may be outside the realm of possibilities of the PDF form and more appropriate through a website but a form with this group would be more user friendly and used more frequently. They wouldn't have to bookmark a website, register with a name and password, or seek out this website. The PDF sits on their desktop.
Any thoughts on one or more of these questions would be appreciated.

A PDF form can be set up to submit to a web server, so what you outlined can be done with a PDF form. Most of what you need will have to be done server-side, so someone will have to write the program on the server that pocesses the incoming submissions and takes appropriate action.
You can set up certain fields to be required so that if they are not completed, the user won't be able to submit the form.
To include attachments, there are basically two options.
1. Set up a field to work like a HTML file upload field. This involves a bit of JavaScript in the form: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.734.html
If using this method, it might be best to submit as "HTML" and process the form as though it were an HTML form, with the exception of the response (usually FDF) that must be returned. There is a lot of mature code/libraries available for processing HTML forms.
2. Set up the form to submit the entire PDF, as opposed to just the form data. This requires that the PDF be Reader-enabled, which allows Reader users to attach a file as a comment and submit the PDF form + attachment. The problem is the server-side processing become more difficult since you have to find a way to extract the form data from the PDF. If everyone will be using Acrobat, or Reader 11 (or later, presumably), then the document does not need to be Reader-enabled
There's more to know, particularly in dealing with security and the client-side issues relating to how Acrobat/Reader respond when submitting and receiving a response from a web server, but I hope this can get you started.
