Any Data Stored on RAM?

I was wondering if it is safe to sell RAM's (I recently upgraded), or if there is any data stored in them? I think there is not, but is that correct?
thank you for your inputs!

Nothing is stored in RAM when the computer is off.

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?

I like the idea of auto back-up for my new iMac, Ipad and PC Netbook, particularly if I can access all files and data stored on any device. But I have a Conceptronic router.
1. Will Time Capsule work with this and how?
2. Can my printer USB be plugged in and then shared between the devices?
3. Can I create a network and how?
4. What happend when a visitor logs onto my existing wireless router?
I'm new to Macs (well a returning user having started with Mac Plus!!) and not very technical. Any help / advice will be much appreciated.

The key to what you seem to want to do is to be able to get Apple's Time Capsule router to "join" the network that your Conceptronic router. I believe that works with some third-party routers, but I've never seen a list of those that work in such a configuration and I have no experience with Conceptronic equipment.
You might be better off with a Network-Attached Storage (NAS) device instead of a Time Capsule.

When using Safari Autofill, and other forms, can information be stored in there if you have not entered any date on a website?

When in autofill, other forms and edit, is it possible for a website to appear in "other forms", edit, if I have not entered data on their site? How would a site appear there if I have not entered any date on their site?

ReportViewer control used with a remote report does not display any data.

Hi there,
I have this .rdl report that runs just fine on our reporting server (I can see that when I try to run the report by accessing its URL in a browser). However, when I run it in my Windows-based application, I do not see any data. My report has two input parameters
and it needs to impersonate the caller's identity because the database uses Windows Authentication.
Here is the code I use:
var reportViewer = new ReportViewer();
// Set Processing Mode
reportViewer.ProcessingMode = ProcessingMode.Remote;
// Set report server and report path
reportViewer.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = new Uri("http://MySsrsServer/reportserver");
reportViewer.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/Reports/MyReport";
// set the credentials
reportViewer.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials.ImpersonationUser = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent();
// create report parameters and set them in the report
var param1 = new ReportParameter("First_Param", "Some string");
var param2 = new ReportParameter("Second_Param", "Some other string");
reportViewer.ServerReport.SetParameters(new ReportParameter[] { param1, param2 });
using (var reportForm = new ReportForm(reportViewer))
reportForm.ShowDialog();
The ReportForm is just a regular Form that has a member of type ReportViewer. In the class' constructor, I assign the member:
public ReportForm(ReportViewer reportViewer)
InitializeComponent();
try
this.reportViewer = reportViewer;
reportViewer.SetDisplayMode(DisplayMode.PrintLayout);
reportViewer.Dock = DockStyle.Fill;
reportViewer.ZoomMode = ZoomMode.Percent;
reportViewer.ZoomPercent = 100;
reportViewer.RefreshReport();
catch (Exception exception)
MessageBox.Show(exception.Message);
Using database level tracing, we were able to confirm that the two Stored Procedures used by the report are called and they return correct and valid records. However, in the form nothing shows up:
Any suggestions?
TIA,
Ed

Good to know CR doesn't like joins of Stored Procedures to something else.
But in my testcase, I finally dropped the link between the ttx file and the stored procedure. Doing so, I was able to run the report from the designer with the stored procedure as datasource instead of the ttx file. At that moment, I still had missing data in my report, while the resultset of the stored procedure returns me all the correct data !
In the mean time, I changed the layout a bit, especially the text fields containing name, address, country and postal code and city of the customer, by just adding some spaces between those seperate databasefields. In fact, there is one text box with all those database fields concatenated one to the other.
And by just adding some spaces in between, my report works fine again ?!
Strange, strange, strange,....

How to restore data stored on icloud

Hi - I have around 13gb of data stored on iCloud (i can see this when I click on manage storage).I wish to use iCloud to retrieve this data when setting up my IPad. However, when I set up the ipad and use a backed version in the icloud, I am not able to retrieve all 13gb of data. So, my question is how to use the iCloud to retrieve all this data on my IPad.
Many thanks,
James.

hi grant. thank you.
i think i am one giant step away from completing all of this. of course at the moment i am recalling your "you are trying to do too much at one time" caution. the lowdown here is that my IT guy just left for a cross country trip and is not available and i am in the weeds big time. can you help me with something?
i am in Lion and I seem to be seeing TWO user accounts named after my SHORT NAME (say this is "Mac's Mac Short Name") for my Snow Leopard install. One has the ICON for my Snow Leopard Install and the other has a default ICON.
in the USERS folder i am seeing one folder with the HOME FOLDER ICON that has the same name as my Snow Leopard Home Folder and I see one folder that has the same name as the SHORT NAME listed above. So this folder says "Mac's mac Short Name" and it has folders in it with red circles and negative symbols showing it is not accessible (these are Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Movies, Music, and Pictures).
Since I migrated my DESKTOP (long story but i have a lot of data on here and i wanted it in Lion so I could organize it before moving some of the work that was finished to the raid volume where my DOCUMENTS folder is located) - I can tell that I /think/ that the SHORT NAME with the Snow Leopard icon is the correct user but when i try and delete the User Acount with the same short name but a default icon is says that there is 194.1 GB of data in here!
So i am confused to the point where it seems OK to copy my home folder in Snow Leopard to the Data Drive but it seems unwise at the moment to point my new Lion install there because I am so confused as to what i have for user accounts.
Did any of that make sense enough to solve? I hate to think i am out for two weeks over here.

How can I import my IE8 bookmarks/favorites into Safari if I only have access to the data stored on my old hard drive? I can't run Windows to export them to an html file.

My old PC died and I replaced it with a MacBook Pro. Although I was able to copy the data from the PC's hard drive, I am unable to export my previous bookmarks/favorites to an html file because that PC won't boot. Is there any other way to import them into Safari using the raw data stored on that drive or convert them somehow to a format I can import?

You can only use a JSON backup to restore all bookmarks in Firefox.<br />
If you need to import Firefox bookmarks in Safari then you need to (re)install Firefox and export the bookmarks to an HTML file.

How to get all the data stored on a table?

Hi.
I'm tryng to get all the data stored on a database table but I'm losing in trouble. I've looked for a soloution to my problem in the forums but each post I follow related to this issue gives me a different way to solve the problem and no one works :(
I suppose I have to call the getAllRowsInRange() method from my ViewObject class. But how can I get an instance of my ApplicationModule in order to get the corresponding ViewObject?
I think I messed my head a lot.
Could someone help me please?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for your answer.
However, there are some things that I don't understand. I will look the book but why is necessary to create another ApplicationModule? The fact is that my application just have one ApplicationModule.
Apart from that, I have tried your suggestion and I've obtained the quite little friendly response that follows:

At that point, I think a better explanation of my purpose could be helpful. What I'm trying to do is just create a simple page with a command button, and in its action method get all the data stored in the rows of the table. I've seen a possible solution that I understand:
DCIteratorBinding iter = getIterator("DatosViewObj1Iterator");
System.out.println("Iterator Binding: "+iter);
int startRange = iter.getRangeSize();
iter.setRangeSize(-1);
Row[] rows = iter.getAllRowsInRange();
iter.setRangeSize(startRange);
but the problem is that I don't know what is the class the method getIterator belongs to.
Could you help me with this last piece of code? If not, I accept, of course, any suggestion. I am absolutely stuck.
Thanks and regards.

How to read XML data stored in CLOB in Concurrent prog Output

Hi All,
I'm trying to Generate the XML Data as concurrent Program output. I have a PL/SQL package which generated the XML data by using SQL/XML functions. I'm storing the generated XML data in a CLOB variable. But when i try to read the data using fnd_file.put_line(fnd_file.OUTPUT,XML_Data) it doesn't display data more than 32767 bytes.
Please help me out to understand what could be done to read the data in chunks. I have tried many logic's to print chunks of data but the output tags are either chopped off and errors out saying Tag not found.
My logic is as below:
v_handler:= DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext(v_xml_query);
--Sets NULL handling options
DBMS_XMLGen.SetNullHandling(v_handler, dbms_xmlgen.EMPTY_TAG ) ;
--Set special character handling
DBMS_XMLGEN.setConvertSpecialChars(v_handler, TRUE);
-- Specified whether to use an XML attribute to indicate NULLness of particular entity in the XML document
DBMS_XMLGen.useNullAttributeIndicator(v_handler,TRUE);
-- set Checking invalid chars
DBMS_XMLGEN.setCheckInvalidChars(v_handler, TRUE);
-- get the xml data as required
v_xml_data:= DBMS_XMLGEN.getXMLtype(v_handler);
SELECT XMLROOT(v_xml_data.extract('/*'),VERSION '1.0').getClobVal() into v_new_xml_Data from dual;
-- get the length of the xml generated
v_clob_len := dbms_lob.getlength(v_new_xml_Data);
FND_FILE.PUT_LINE(FND_FILE.LOG,'The Clob length is :'|| v_clob_len);
-- logic to process string more than 32767 Processing by each character
v_offset :=1;
while (v_offset <= v_clob_len)
LOOP
v_char := dbms_lob.substr(v_new_xml_Data, 1, v_offset);
IF (v_char = CHR(10))
then
fnd_file.new_line(fnd_file.output, 1);
else
fnd_file.put(fnd_file.output, v_char);
end if;
v_offset := v_offset + 1;
END LOOP;
FND_FILE.PUT_LINE(FND_FILE.LOG,'The offset is :'|| v_offset);
FND_FILE.NEW_LINE(FND_FILE.OUTPUT, 1);
THe above logic is for character by character which is a performance burden? Please let me know if there is any other work around for this

Hi,
Thanks for Replying. I have refered http://blog.oraclecontractors.com/?p=69 and then i added that piece of code. Basically, i'm trying to generate a report using XML publisher. To generate the XML data i'm writing a pl/sql package with SQl/XML functions. DBMS_XMLGEN would help me convert the XML Data as is. When the concurrent program runs this XML data will merge with RTF layout and generate required report. I'm able to generate the Report for data less then 32767 bytes. More than the limit i need to pass chunks of XML data to read as output. That's the reason i'm using fnd_file.output. But it reads only 32767 size at a time.
WHen i use the given logic, it works perfectly fine, but it loops for each character, for example if you have 30,000 characters it loops the same, which is peformance burden.
So i tried to write the logic of chunks but still i get the error that XML tag is not found or missing. I'm hoping this is very common issue, but after all my trails, i didn't find the right solution.
the other logic i tried was :
v_new_xml_data varchar2(32767)
v_iterations := CEIL(v_clob_len/v_chunk_length); -- v_chunk_length is 32767 and v_clob_length is length of the XML data stored inthe clob variable
For i in 0..v_iterations
LOOP
FND_FILE.put_line (fnd_file.log,'the loops v_pos :'||i||' and v_clob_length :'||v_clob_len);
v_new_xml_data := DBMS_LOB.SUBSTR ( V_XML_DATA,v_chunk_length,(i*v_chunk_length)+1);
FND_FILE.PUT_LINE (FND_FILE.OUTPUT,v_new_xml_data); -- read the output for every 32767 chunks
FND_FILE.PUT_LINE(FND_FILE.LOG, 'Chunk length is :'||((i*v_chunk_length)+1));
END LOOP;
FND_FILE.put_line (fnd_file.log,'out of loop');
FND_FILE.put_line (fnd_file.log,'length of new xml is '||v_clob_len);
Please, let me know if you need Further clarifications on the same.

Update XML data stored in CLOB Column

Hi All,
i am new to Oracle and new to SQL
i am trying to update XML data stored in CLOB cloumn,data is stored with the follwoing format
<attrs><attr name="name"><string>Schade</string></attr></attrs>
i am using the following query for updating the value
UPDATE PRODUCT p SET ATTRIBUTES_nl_nl=UPDATEXML(XMLTYPE.createXML(ATTRIBUTES_nl_nl),'/attrs/attr[@name="name"]/string/text()','Schade').getClobVal() WHERE p.sku='000000000000040576_200911-5010057'
this query is working fine but it changing the data to the following format
<attrs><attr name="name">Schade</attr></attrs>
some how it is ommiting the <string> tag from it, i am unable to figure it out whats the reason.
any help in this regard will b e much appriciated

Hi,
You should have created your own thread for this, and included database version.
This works for me on 11.2.0.2 and 10.2.0.5 :
SQL> create table t_org ( xml_clob clob );
Table created
SQL>
SQL> insert into t_org
2 values(
3 '<Message>
4 <Entity>
5 <ASSIGNMENT>
6 <OAVendorLocation> </OAVendorLocation>
7 <Vendorid>1</Vendorid>
8 </ASSIGNMENT>
9 </Entity>
10 </Message>'
11 );
1 row inserted
SQL> commit;
Commit complete
SQL> select '*' ||
2         extractvalue(xmltype(xml_clob),'/Message/Entity/ASSIGNMENT/OAVendorLocation')
3         || '*' as result
4 from t_org;
RESULT
SQL> update t_org set xml_clob =
2 updatexml(xmltype(xml_clob),
3 '/Message/Entity/ASSIGNMENT/OAVendorLocation/text()','LONDON').getClobVal()
4 ;
1 row updated
SQL> select '*' ||
2         extractvalue(xmltype(xml_clob),'/Message/Entity/ASSIGNMENT/OAVendorLocation')
3         || '*' as result
4 from t_org;
RESULT
*LONDON*
Does the OAVendorLocation really have a whitespace value?
If not then it's expected behaviour, you're trying to update a text() node that doesn't exist. In this case, the solution is to use appendChildXML to create the text() node, or update the whole element.
Is it your real document? Do you actually have some namespaces?

See XML updating functions : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e23094/xdb04cre.htm#i1032611
For example :
UPDATE my_table t
SET t.my_clob =
      XMLSerialize(document
        insertChildXML(
          XMLParse(document t.my_clob)
        , '/Activity/Spawned'
        , 'Activity'
        , XMLElement("Activity", 'Some GUID')
WHERE ...
;Although it works, there's overhead introduced by parsing the CLOB, then serializing again.
Is there any chance you can change the CLOB to SECUREFILE binary XMLType storage instead?
You would then be able to benefit from optimized piecewise update of the XML and improved storage.

Error message PG009 : no data stored for the period

During upgrade testing from 4.7 to ECC6 noticing an error message PG009 with a suggested solution "In table T582A maintain the indicators 'Choose with start', 'Choose with end', 'Choose without date' for each infotype"
I am able to see recotds in 4.7, but however unable to view anything in ECC6. The message I get is No data stored for the time selected.

We have the same problem - during upgrade phase. Any suggestions?

How to get values/data stored in the database into a list-item.

how to get values/data stored in the database into a list-item.
i tried to make a list item without any values assigned to it...but i got the below error.
FRM-30191: No list items defined for required poplist.
or
FRM-32082: Invalid value for given item type.
List EMPNO
Item: EMPNO
Block: EMP
Form: MODULE5
FRM-30085: Unable to adjust form for output.
then according to some docs, i tried the the following for the trigger
when-new-form-instance
declare
     rg_name varchar2(40) := 'emp_rec';
     status number;
     groupid recordgroup;
     it_id item;
begin
     it_id := Find_Item('empno');
     groupid := create_group_from_query(rg_name, 'select empno from emp');
     status := populate_group(groupid);
     populate_list(it_id, groupid);
end;
but yet didnt work... :(
so how the heck do i get values fetched from the database table into the list item?

for list items you need to values in the record group, one is the shown value and one is the returned value.
Check out the online help for the populate_list built-in.
You'll need something like select ename,ename from emp as the record group query.

How to get data with out having any date/timestamp columns by year wise

hi,
how can i select years wise rows from tables,if that have not any date/timestamp column.

Well Govind it quite depends on what is the data type of that column and the format in which it is stored.
If the data type is varchar2/varchar and all the values are in a uniform format then there is no problem. All you need to use is the to_date function to convert the supplied strings to default date format and then use to_char function to only extract the YY or YYYY or RR or RRRR aspect of the data.
For example: If the column is called 'hire_date' and it's data type is varchar2 and the entries in this column are all in a uniform format, say month,date,year like January,12,1999. What you need to do is convert this string to a default date value using to_date function, like to_date(hire_date,'format_model') In the format model mention the format of the hire_date string. The out put of this function can be fed into to_char to extract the year, like to_char(output_of_to_date,'YYYY')
I hope you got what I meant. Let me know if it was of any use.

Automatically populating a Form from data stored in Access

Hi,
I need help automatically populating a form from data stored in Access. The form needs to have specific fields that are updated from an Access database. I want to be able to enter a site number and have the subsequent list of information (approximately 35 pieces of data) populate. I DO NOT want to update the Access database via the form. The form is for quick viewing and documentation only, not data entry. Currently I've been doing this with VB in Access which exported the data to a Word Document which was then saved as a PDF. It seems easier and less troublesome to go directly to the PDF form, but I can't figure out how!
I have already connected my database to the form using OLEDB.
I don't want a dropdown list and I don't want buttons to scroll through the sites (I've already found out how to do that through this forum).
Any help would be very much appreciated!!

Some more help to get started in this.. would be really appreciated..Are you trying to come up with the graphs yourself? IF so, are you familiar with MVC?

Convert Date stored in MYSQL to date flex can use

Hello All.
I am trying to finish a simple log in script for a program i am working on.
Its using amfphp to check a mysql database to ensure that the username and password that the user enters is in the database and flagged to allow them to log in,
I have all this working fine.
However the database also has a table named "Date" that contains a date in the format os DD/MM/YYYY this date is generated by flex in a process earlier.   The field type for this date field is a varChar.
My flex application also has a variable that contains the current Date. In the same format.
        <mx:DateFormatter id="DateDisplay" formatString="DD/MM/YYYY"/>
          [Bindable] private var today:Date = new Date();
and i have a label that displays it using the code below.
DateDisplay.format(today)
Now what i want to do is when the user clicks the log in button, in the result of the function that is run, i want to convert the date stored in the mysql table to a date variable so that i can compare it witht he actual date.   So that the user can not log in once the date has expired.
The result function is as follows
protected function qrycandidateLogin(event:ResultEvent):void
                if(event.result.length > 0 && event.result[0].Taken =='Yes') {
                    Alert.show(LoginError,"Error");
                else if (event.result.length > 0 )
                    viewstack1.selectedChild=welcome;
                    userArray = event.result as ArrayCollection;
                else
                    Alert.show("Please consult an account admin.", "Login failed");
So i need to add the code to the first "Else IF" statement. to ensure that the date hasnt expired.
If anyone can help that would be great !
Thanks
Dave

I have been working on this and had some advancement but I am still having problems.
I added a bindable variable - [Bindable] public var SelDate:Date;
and added the following code into my result function
    SelDate= DateField.stringToDate(event.result[0].date, "DD/MM/YYYY");
however when i check what this SelDate variable then holds it comes out as
Wed Jan 20 00:00:00 GMT+0000 2010
the date is correct becuase my database value is 20/1/2010
But i dont want all the time etc, but when i change the "DD/MM/YYY "   it then displays nothing.
Any ideas?
Thanks
