Adding external data from another forest?
Hello Community
The following 2 scenarios are how data is entered and stored in a non-Sharepoint environment:
Scenario a) C# ASP.Net or C# Windows applications are used to enter data that gets stored
into SQL Server databases on a network.
Scenario b) Users create Word applications, Excel Spreadsheets, PDF's, etc and the data is
stored in folders on servers on a network.
In the future a Sharepoint 2013 Server farm is created in a domain in a separate forest.
The question(s) is:
#1) How do you add those servers that contain the data in the pre-existing
SQL Server databased to the Sharepoint 2013 farm?
#2) How do you add those servers that contain the data in the pre-existing
Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PDF's, etc into the Sharepoint 2013 farm?
#3) If it exists, what 3rd party software stated in either #1 and/or #2 above can
add those servers or import that data on those servers into the Sharepoint 2013 farm?
Note: If BCS can be used does each client need to have Microsoft Office 2013 installed
on each client computer?
Thank you
Shabeaut
SharePoint won't be able to manage documents in those custom/3rd party databases. If this is a 3rd party database, there may be a solution to migrate the information into SharePoint. If it is custom/in-house, then you'll need to build migration utilities
yourself.
Ideally, those documents should reside within Document Libraries in SharePoint to have full management over those documents.
As for BCS, it is meant more for display List-style data, not documents. But clients do not have to have any components installed to leverage BCS, as BCS is a service on SharePoint.

How to display data from a recordset based on data from another recordset
How to display data from a recordset based on data from
another recordset.
What I would like to do is as follows:
I have a fantasy hockey league website. For each team I have
a team page (clubhouse) which is generated using PHP/MySQL. The one
area I would like to clean up is the displaying of the divisional
standings on the right side. As of right now, I use a URL variable
(division = id2) to grab the needed data, which works ok. What I
want to do is clean up the url abit.
So far the url is
clubhouse.php?team=Wings&id=DET&id2=Pacific, in the end all
I want is clubhouse.php?team=Wings.
I have a separate table, that has the teams entire
information (full team name, short team, abbreviation, conference,
division, etc. so I was thinking if I could somehow do this:
Recordset Team Info is filtered using URL variable team
(short team). Based on what team equals, it would then insert this
variable into the Divisional Standings recordset.
So example: If I type in clubhouse.php?team=Wings, the Team
Info recordset would bring up the Pacific division. Then 'Pacific'
would be inserted into the Divisional Standings recordset to
display the Pacific Division Standings.
Basically I want this
SELECT *
FROM standings
WHERE division = <teaminfo.division>
ORDER BY pts DESC
Could someone help me, thank you.Assuming two tables- teamtable and standings:
teamtable - which has entire info about the team and has a
field called
"div" which has the division name say "pacific" and you want
to use this
name to get corresponding details from the other table.
standings - which has a field called "division" which you
want to use to
give the standings
SELECT * FROM standings AS st, teamtable AS t
WHERE st.division = t.div
ORDER BY pts DESC
Instead of * you could be specific on what fields you want to
select ..
something like
SELECT st.id AS id, st.position AS position, st.teamname AS
team
You cannot lose until you give up !!!

Best way To get data from another application using NDDE lbrary
My vb.net application gets data from another application using NDDE Library. I got stocks prices (open,high,low,close,volume,change......(about 15 records for each stock)) (about 200 stocks) . I don't know if there is a problem in my code.
This is my code:
l : is the list of stocks.
This Sub connects to server and requests the data :
Public Shared Sub GetQuotes()
Try
client1 = New DdeClient(server, topic)
client1.Connect()
For i As Integer = 0 To l.Count - 1
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$last", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$open", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$high", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$low", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$pclose", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$volume", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$date", 1, True, 60000)
client1.StartAdvise("QO." & l(i).t & ".TAD$time", 1, True, 60000)
Next
Catch ex As Exception
MsgBox(ex.Message)
End Try
End Sub
and then I get the data from Client_advise sub (called each time a value changed )and fill the list. What I know is that client advise gets only one record for single stock each time is called..
Example: for stock AAPL. 1st time enters client_Advise I get open price for AAPL, 2nd time I get high price for AAPL,3rd time I get low price..... and I update the value in the List (l)
This the client_Advise Sub:
Private Shared Sub client1_Advise(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As NDde.Client.DdeAdviseEventArgs) Handles client1.Advise
For q As Integer = 0 To l.Count - 1
If l(q).t = w(1) Then
Dim item() As String = e.Item.Split("$")
If l(q).Open = "#" Then
l(q).Open = "0"
End If
If l(q).hi = "#" Then
l(q).hi = "0"
End If
If l(q).lo = "#" Then
l(q).lo = "0"
End If
If l(q).Close = "" Or l(q).Close = "#" Then
l(q).Close = "0"
End If
If l(q).pclose = "#" Then
l(q).pclose = "0"
End If
If item(1) = "open" Then
l(q).Open = Format(Val(e.Text), "0.00")
ElseIf item(1) = "last" Then
l(q).Close = Format(Val(e.Text), "0.00")
ElseIf item(1) = "high" Then
l(q).hi = Format(Val(e.Text), "0.00")
ElseIf item(1) = "volume" Then
l(q).Volume = Val(e.Text)
ElseIf item(1) = "low" Then
l(q).lo = Format(Val(e.Text), "0.00")
ElseIf item(1) = "pclose" Then
l(q).pclose = Format(Val(e.Text), "0.00")
If l(q).pclose <> "" And l(q).pclose <> "#" And l(q).Close <> "" And l(q).Close <> "#" Then
l(q).c = Format(l(q).Close - l(q).pclose, "0.00")
l(q).cp = Format(((l(q).Close - l(q).pclose) / l(q).pclose) * 100, "0.00")
End If
l(q).flag1 = 2
ElseIf item(1) = "date" Then
l(q).Date1 = e.Text
ElseIf item(1) = "time" Then
l(q).Time = e.Text
End If
Exit For
End If
Next
End Sub
Am I doing something wrong which inreases CPU usage to 80 or 90 % ?
Thanks in advance.Hi MikeHammadi,
According to your description, you'd like to get data from another app using NDDE library.
When using the NDDE library, the CPU usage is high. As the NDDE library is third-party library, it is not supported here. I suggest you checking if the problem is caused by the NDDE library.
If you'd like to get data from another app. I suggest you could save the data in the dataBase, and then read it in another application if necessary.
If you have any other concern regarding this issue, please feel free to let me know.
Best regards,
Youjun Tang

Reading data from another database
Hi Folks!
I need to read some data from another non-sap system database to validate something in R/3. Does this is possible. If it is possible how could this be achieved?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Gilberto LiThere are a couple of ways to do this. One, you can create an executable on the other non-sap system that you can call from SAP as a system command. So let us say you write a unix script that takes a value as input and returns a flag as output. Within the script you will check that value against this non-sap database. In SAP, you will create a system command in SM69 and then execute it in your program via function module SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE.
Alternatively, you can use the RFC route but you need to setup RFC connection between the two systems.
You can also bring this validation table into SAP as a one time or periodically updated table and then do the validations within SAP. -

To get data from another user?
Hi,
I am in "scott" user. I need to use the data from another user for example user "sys". i know the database name(i.e.user@database), but i dont know the password of that user.
I think by using dblink it is possible. If it is correct then Is there any other way for this? If dblink is not correct way then please reply the correct way.
Thanks & Regards,
ShyamYou only need to use a database link if the data is in another database instances.
If you want to query data in another users schema on the same database you just need to have rights to do so. You either need to have
select any table system privilage granted to the user (not recommended for security reasons)
be granted select privalage on the object from the user
be granted a role that has select privelges on the object you want to query.
If you log in as system to the database you can grant select on the object to scott
sql> grant select on <schema>.<table> to scott;
now logged in as scott you can select from the table
sql> select * from <schema>.<table>
where <schema> is the other user and <table> is the name of the table that you want to select from. -

Chrome missing in Import data from another browser
I use both chrome and firefox portable from site portableapps because mozilla doesn´t have a portable version.
My dilemma today is this:
I always had on firefox on menu "import and backup" > > "import data from another browser" listing chrome like this
https://support.mozilla.org/media/uploads/gallery/images/2012-02-24-10-35-53-97ff60.png
today i want to import chrome bookmarks to firefox but chrome is missing on the list, in the past i always had it there listed now is just pointing to IE
Do i need chrome installed on machine to grab something from registry?
By what i can remember always had that option on portable versions, i am importating this with a fresh pc machine because i installed now windows where i previously wiped the disk from manufacturer erasing tool.
i digged the net and on questions here but cant find why its missing, can you guys tell me why?
P.S- i would like to say that this site, Mozilla and Mozilla support, forums and community are the best service i´ve seen in years over the whole web i believe its really the best one and am not writing this because of this question, only thing missing is having Mozilla apps portable, a online chat would be cool too for the community
Oh god i hope today the "fox" saves me cause i can´t find solution on this
You guys take it easy.....Do you mean the portable version of Google Chrome as well?
*http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/google_chrome_portable
Which that version you probably need to export the bookmarks to an HTML file and import that file in Firefox.
You can open the Bookmarks Manager in Google Chrome (wrench icon > Bookmarks > Bookmarks Manager) and select "Tools > Export Bookmarks"<br />
This will export the Chrome bookmarks to a file bookmarks.html.<br />
You can import that file in Firefox: Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks > Import & Backup > Import HTML : "From File"

By following the directions on Firefox to open up the Library tool - import & backup - The drop down choice to 'Import Data from another Browser' this choice is greyed out and unavailable. I do not know how to proceed in order to import my favorites from IE.

ThanksOr a pipe. In unix you can create a named pipe with mkfifo, which can hadilly do this kind of transfer.

Win7 / IE9: First time use. Example: One favorites folder has 4 HTML entries - only 2 get transferred. Some have none transfered - folder empty. Others have random correct + some missing.
Monday Nght
I can see complete IE9 Favorites HTML list in HTML file on Desktop with Firefox -> New Tab -> Open File.-> Open
In desktop HTML file, there are 37 IE9 folders with no more than nesting 3 deep in any one top folder. These are all correct wrt IE9 favorites.
All top folders + deepest nests are copied to FF ok. Contents random. Copied contents work ok
7 HTML web sites not allocated to IE9 top folders are also copied <- these 7 copy to FF and work ok
Example: First folder in IE9 list has no nesting., IE9 has 4 entries - Firefox has only 2. when either method of copying is used.
BTW - please advise how I can delete whole Bookmark list in Firefox in one keystroke to be able to retry with a clean Bookmark list
I am going to uninstall Firefox and start again with a clean copy and use HTML method only to try to transfer IE( files. I will report result.
BTW, I am in UK on UK time - hence delays in replying - need to sleep sometimes!!!!!
Tuesday Evening
Hi
I uninstalled Firefox. Re installed and loaded IE9 favorites from HTML file.
All seem copied correctly
First time I started by using the "import data from another browser". Partial copied.
Then I tried "Import from HTML file" without deleting whatever favorites had been copied. Still partial copied.
All seems well. -
Why the "Import Data from Another Browser" option cannot be chosen
I click on History on the menu, then, Show All History option, a new window appears called Library.
I click on the button: 'Import and Backups', a drop down menu appears with the option 'Import Data from Another Browser'; however, this option in my browser is light gray, i.e. I cannot choose it. Why?Are you in the Private Browsing mode when you try that Import menu item?

Accessing External Data from SharePoint 2010
I want to access external data from my SharePoint site.
I'm told that I need to follow these two articles.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff953161.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff625800.aspx
I followed the first article but I get this error when I open the external list in my SharePoint site:
"Unable to display this Web Part. To troubleshoot the problem, open this Web page in a Microsoft SharePoint Foundation-compatible HTML editor such as Microsoft SharePoint Designer. If the problem persists, contact your Web server administrator."
I don't know how to write a custom code
BTW I have installed PowerPivot on my SharePoint server.
Can someone please help me? I need to do this very quickly.Hi,
Can you please elaborate whether the data you are getting is from excel file or from database.
1. If you are populating it from excel , then you can use the Excel service, Power pivot etc mechanism.
2. If you are getting it from SQL database then you can use BCS service application and use the OOTB external list and content type to display the same in your home page.
Links of artcles are given below.
