Advice please, best way to handle creating X number of input / edit forms

Hi folks,
Like the subject says, looking for a bit of advice. Let's say on page 1, we select a customer, and this customer has X number of pets (usually < 4). They click a check box for each one they want to schedule, and submit. The next page reads the collection and needs to display an input / edit form for each of the pets. What is the best way to go about making this happen?
Thanks very much,
-Adam vonNieda

Why not use a tabular form and when you call the form, create how ever many rows you need for the number of pets selected?
Thank you,

Advice on best way to handle post-prod export

I have just completed a project for a friend. The project container in Aperture contains numerous sub-folders, smart albums, and all containing various versions, stacks, crops etc. etc.
I'm looking for the simplest way to take all of the originals (ie, the non-edited versions) and export them as high resolution .jpeg files - so that my friend (who does not have raw file conversion capabilities) can effectively have the 'originals' (albeit in jpeg form) to archive and edit in the future.
My current project structure is a mess - files, and albums all over place - using all the sorting power that Aperture has to offer. Many of the original versions have been edited, with not all having been preserved by creating new adjustment versions. Now I essentially want to get back to square one: the original imports. Any thoughts ?
Thanks,
Paul

PS - I should add that a number of the images have been edited externally - so I now also have some "new" masters to contend with.

Best way to handle time taking MIS queries!

Dear all,
Recently we have developed some MIS reports that execute large queries and process lot of data. These queries almost held the database and user's experience very slow speed.
What is the best way to handle these heavy duty queries?
Like having another server for MIS and then what is the best way to synchronize data on daily basis?
OR
Creating procedures that execute at night and populate MIS tables and reports using this formulated data?
Any other better solution please?
Thanks, Imran

Creating procedures that execute at night and populate MIS tables and reports using this formulated data?I would not recommend this for the maintenance part involved; and also, this is re-inventing the wheel.

Best way to handle source files

Hi there,
After some pretty general advise please.
The company I work for looks after a lot of websites, and one
of the
headaches we have is the best way to handle source files. By
source files I'm
referring to Photoshop files, Flash .fla files and also other
none Adobe
files that relate to a site, not the .html, .asp, .aspx,
.css, .js etc type
files.
Now I'm NOT after a version control system, just a simple way
to store the
source files in a location that is separate from the website
but still to be
able to have a smooth workflow between the Dreamweaver site
and it's source
files.
At the moment, and I know this is unwise, we have a
subdirectory within the
site where we store the source files, and use WebDAV to
transfer both site
and source files to and from the server. But I really want to
separate the
site from source but still maintain a link between site and
source...... if
you see what I mean. I think the upshot is I would like to be
able to open a
site within Dreamweaver and instantly be able to access that
sites source
files if needed. This method needs to be shared across a
small team spread
round the UK.
I looked at the Repository Subversion version control, but
like I said I'm
not after a source control system, plus it appeared to
conflict with WebDAV
and Contribute, that some of our clients use to maintain
content on their
sites. I also looked at Version Cue which looked promising,
but can't see a
clear workflow between Dreamweaver and Version Cue which
separates site from
source. I might be missing something.... part of my brain
perhaps. :)
Would be grateful for any advice please.
Cheers,
@ndyB

Take a deep breath. Relax. All is fine.
iDVD does not look at the size of your video file, it looks at the length. iDVD can accomodate up to 2 hours of movie
iDVD gives you different options depending on the length of your movie. Although I won't agree with your friend about reducing the length of your movie to 15 minutes, if you could trim out a few minutes to get it under an hour that setting in iDVD (Best Performance though the new version may have renamed it) gives you the best quality. Still, any iDVD setting will give you good quality even at 64 minutes
In FCE export as Quicktime Movie NOT any flavour of Quicktime Conversion. Select chapter markers if you have them. If everything is on one system unchecked the Make Movie Self Contained button. Drop the QT file into iDVD

(workflow question) - What is the best way to handle audio in a large Premiere project?

Hey all,
This might probably be suitable for any version of Premiere, but just in case, I use CS4 (Master Collection)
I am wrestling in my brain about the best way to handle audio in my project to cut down on the time I am working on it.
This project I just finished was a 10 minute video for a customer shot on miniDV (HVX-200) cut down from 3 hours of tape.
I edited my whole project down to what looked good, and then I decided I needed to clean up all the Audio using Soundbooth, So I had to go in clip by clip, using the Edit in SoundBooth --> Render and Replace method on every clip. I couldn't find a way to batch edit any audio in Soundbooth.
For every clip, I performed similar actions---
1) both tracks of audio were recorded with 2 different microphones (2 mono tracks), so I needed only audio from 1 track - I used SB to cut and paste the good track over the other track.
2) amplified the audio
3) cleaned up the background noise with the noise filter
I am sure there has to be a better workflow option than what I just did (going clip by clip), Can someone give me some advice on how best to handle audio in a situation like this?
Should I have just rendered out new audio for the whole tape I was using, and then edit from that?
Should I have rendered out the audio after I edited the clips into one long track and performed the actions I needed on it? or something entirely different? It was a very slow, tedious process.
Thanks,
Aza

Hi, Aza.
Given that my background is audio and I'm just coming into the brave new world of visual bits and bytes, I would second Hunt's recommendation regarding exporting the entire video's audio as one wav file, working on it, and then reimporting. I do this as one of the last stages, when I know I have the editing done, with an ear towards consistency from beginning to end.
One of the benefits of this approach is that you can manage all audio in the same context. For example, if you want to normalize, compress or limit your audio, doing it a clip at a time will make it difficult for you to match levels consistently or find a compression setting that works smoothly across the board. It's likely that there will instead be subtle or obvious differences between each clip you worked on.
When all your audio is in one file you can, for instance, look at the entire wave form, see that limiting to -6 db would trim off most of the unnecessary peaks, triim it down, and then normalize it all. You may still have to do some tweaking here and there, but it gets you much farther down the road, much more easily.Same goes for reverb, EQ or other effects where you want the same feel throughout the entire video.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Best way to handle when Production XI is in outrage/down

Hi All,
My production box is running smoothly now.If we want to go for any outrage and still we will be receiving many messages through internet from many partners.
So we are expecting how to receive the messages when production XI is in outrage. My client is thinking of putting one more instance with the replica of Production box. So that when the main production is in outrage then immediately they can switch back to this replica version and they can process the messages untill the main one get ready.
Now I am very much concern what are the implication will be if we go like this.
1. which is the best way to handle XI box to maintain when the system is outrage/down?
2. Is it a good idea of creating replica of production instance and maintaing this when the main one is in outrage?
Kindly suggest what you guys are doing for your implementations.
Thanks
Seema

XI Box - Outrage -Should be a robotic XI Box. Now I know that you are thinking what to do when cops come and handcuff it. -- Just kidding..
Ok, here's the logic, you want to replace a piece of water pipe that gets water to your faucet. What do you do without the water leaking or disrupting the water supply... you either turn off the valve or add a temp pipe to keep the water flowing..
So check into your sys landscape for Fail safe or High Availability, may be one of those can save you money and time.

Best way to handle multi-page documents?

Hi,
I'm creating a multi-page editor on top of TLF and I'd like to hear some opinions about the best way to handle multi-pade documents.
I'm basicaly considering two options:
1.) A single RichEditableText and several ContainerControllers.
2.) Several RichEditableText.
Tks.

I'm not sure you can create a RichEditableText and give it multiple ContainerControllers. If you use multiple RichEditableText
components, then you will have to decide in advance which text goes in which one.
We have posted sample code for doing this in straight ActionScript, which you could presumably also host inside a Flex container. See:
http://blogs.adobe.com/tlf/examples/
Look for "ActionScript Pagination Example".

Best way to handle Christmas music - Playlist or separate Library?

Anyone have a suggestion about the "best" way to handle Christmas music?
After reading the article below I'm tempted to create a new library for Christmas music... that way I can keep it on an external drive or even DVD.
http://www.allthingsmarked.com/2006/09/13/howto-manage-multiple-libraries-in-itu nes-7/

My solution to this is to add the tag "Xmas" to the "Grouping" field of each Christmas song.
This little tag stays tucked away out of sight until Christmastime. Then, I create a new Smart Playlist where Grouping contains "Xmas." Voila.
The Grouping field can be useful for non-genre distinctions you want to add to your music, likesay "live" or "remix" or "cover."

Best way to handle scrolling on iphone?

What's the best way to handle scrolling? The ios has a specific style of scrolling, click and drag, with a sort of elastic effect at the limits. What's the best way to appraoch this? Create a script that mimics this same behavior?
In a related question, I have a list of buttons, which will scroll. I want to click the buttons, but I also want to drag the list. How best to handle this. If I have an event waiting for a click or a mouseup on the button, if I execute a drag I don't want to activate a button at the end of a drag.

To answer your first question, I use the iPhoneScroll class by Shine Draw. Its not 100% identical to the actual iPhone scroller but comes pretty damn close and works quite nicely on the iPhone4.
To achieve what you described in your second question, you would have to edit the class for this, it does not support interactive content.
Hope this helps.

OIM 9031: Best way to handle application/test account on target system.

Hi Guys,
I am wonder what will be the best way to handle application account created in target sytem . i.e. I have target system Active Directory and on non-trusted reconciliation, I also fetch application/test account which not going to match to any existing user ,but should be capture for reporting or any future action .
Any input or idea is most welcome !!
Cheers,
Ankit

There are basically two approaches to handle service accounts.
Either you model them as a free standing RO very similar to a normal AD account or you use the built in "service account" and associate the account with an already existing AD RO instance. I haven't used the "service account" approach in any customer project yet so I can't really comment on the details of that approach (hopefully someone else will be able to do that).
Are you sure that you have service accounts in AD that you can't attribute to a specific users? Most organizations require service accounts to be linked to a user or a group of users so that the need for the account to continue existing can be verified by a human. Having live accounts in your AD that no one can say what they do or why they exist is normally a very scary thought for most organizations.
Hope this helps

What's the best way to handle new versions of software?

So we have an Application setup for Adobe Reader (just using Reader as a general example) which is part of our Task Sequence. When Adobe releases a new version of Reader, what's the best way to handle getting the new version into our SCCM setup.
I know I can create a new application and do it all over and select the new file, but can I simply replace the files that the application is pointing to and then somehow tell it to update the DPs with the new files? I'd rather not have to create new
applications every time if I don't have to.
Thanks.

I think continue the way you are doing right now by creating a new application each time there is a version change. Its a clean way to do and this helps with Application life cycle mgmt aswell where you keep track of versions across the environments and
eventually retire an application. Specially where no changes are made without a change control. This is completely process specific and may not be applicable.
i do agree with above posted comments about using supercedence option.
However most of the apps comes with upgrade capabilities from previous versions. So you can upgrade existing version with new one if you do not wish to use supercedence.
Thanks

Best way of handling large amounts of data movement

Hi
I like to know what is the best way to handle data in the following scenario
1. We have to create Medical and Rx claims Tables for 36 months of data about 150 million records each - First month (month 1, 2, 3, 4, .......34, 35, 36)
2. We have to add the DELTA of month two to the 36 month baseline. But the application requirement is ONLY 36 months, even though the current size is 37 months.
3 Similarly in the 3rd month we will have 38 months, 4th month will have 39 months.
4. At the end of 4th month - how can I delete the First three months of data from Claim files without affecting the performance which is a 24X7 Online system.
5. Is there a way to create Partitions of 3 months each and that can be deleted - Delete Partition number 1, If this is possible, then what kind of maintenance activity needs to be done after deleting partition.
6. Is there any better way of doing the above scenario. What other options do I have.
7 My goal is to eliminate the initial months data from system as the requirement is ONLY 36 months data.
Thanks in advance for your suggestion
sekhar

Hi,
You should use table partitioning to keep your data on monthly partitions. Serach on table partitioning for detailed examples.

Best way to handle text files in OD10g

We have a requirement to store reports in text format into a database field, to be able to view the reports, and to print them if desired using Forms 10g. What is the best way to handle this?
- define the field in the database as clob or blob?
- if CLOB is the choice, what tools to use to upload CLOBs to the database (since webutil transfer is for blob only)?
- in Forms 10g, can one use the Forms data type LONG for CLOB?
- can you do Forms search on clob and blob fields?
- how can reports that are stored in fields be viewed without first downloading to the client workstation?
- in Forms 10g, what is the best way to view text files residing in local PCs: "host notepad myFile"?
Thanks much for your reply!

Best way to handle multiple currencies

I have a requirement that users should be able to report against an OLAP cube in a currency of their choice (from a list of about 20) and was wondering what the best way to handle this might be.
One option would be to have a currency dimension containing the list of valid currencies and then to pre-calculate measures in each of the currencies and store them in the cube. However the downside of this is that the resultant cube would be 20 times larger than a cube in a single currency, take longer to maintain etc. I could of course partition the cube by currency to improve reporting performance since users would only report in one currency at a time.
Another alternative would be to dynamically calculate the measures based on exchange rates - I guess this could either be done in the cube itself or as part of the reporting code. However since exchange rates are daily, this would obvioulsy prevent me from aggregating data up the time dimension (all measures are at the day level).
Is there any standard way of doing this and what are the pro's and con's?
Thanks,
Chris

Sorry - messed up - I should have posted this in the OLAP forum.....

Best way to handle all erros and get performance(OCI)?

Hi there,
Im using[b] Oracle Call Interface to execute batch file process. But I have got a problem.
I set ExecuteBatch with the same number of commit time, i.e: 100, 1000 or just 10, for thats ok.
((OraclePreparedStatement)globalStmt).setExecuteBatch(commit);
And I handle executeUpdate to catch all SQL Exceptions. I made some proposital files with invalid erros but when I handle "executeUpdate" it�s doesn�t get the corrent error line, and puts out another line that is corret.
((OraclePreparedStatement)globalStmt).executeUpdate();
Check in the code I concluded that its always get the same sequence of commit number like the error line. For example, I have between line 1 - 50 a line error, this line is 31, but I set the commit time for 50, its show me that line errror is 50 wherever 31. But if I put setExecuteBatch with '1' so it can handle corret lines erros, but the system performance bring down. What is the best way to handle all erros and keep the perfronace?
Sorry for my english, I am not native. Thanks all.

So by doing this, everything will transfer and look exactly the way I have it on the old machine?
That is correct, if your old machine is Intel based after using MA the new machine will look just like the old machine. Here is information from Apple on MA, I'd recommend looking it over.
My recommendation is to answer NO when setting up the new machine when it asks "Are you moving from another Mac?" The reason being let you new machine get set up and run for a couple of hours to ensure it's fine. Then launch MA and follow the prompts, it's very easy and if you use a fast connection like FW it should go smoothly.

Roger
