ATT Data Connect question

Right now I have a blackberry with unlimited data plan as well as a dataconnect SIM that I have been using in the T400.
My question: Can I get rid of my 60$ data connect plan and use my blacberry SIM card?

then you buy another contract for the hub. but if your family has 10 gb shared you would not need a hot spot as they each have their own.
You should actualy go into the store and ask your quesitons directly of the people that sell them.
Or go ahead and buy it on eBay and then try to make it work.
It all sounds like you are trying to find a way to circument the system, which I applaud.

Data Connection Question

Is it possible to connect fields (ddLists) in a LC form with a Lotus Notes database?

If you Lotus Notes database is an OLE-compliant database you can create a data connection from a form to the database.

How can I debug a problem with the 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s?

This question didn't get any answers in the "Using iPhone" forum. Thought I would re-ask here. Note, I had to reset the network again today 2 days after the last reset:
I've been having intermittent problems with my 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s on ATT. Whenever this happens I see full bars etc, but can't browse from safari or get any data in other apps. My wife's iPhone 4 right next to me has no issues at all. Switching on/off airplane mode and turning off/on Cellular Data does not help. The only thing that helps is resetting the Network Settings or hard restarting the phone.
I figured my problems were hardware related so I took my phone in for a replacement the other day. Things started out fine but after I upgraded it to 5.01 and restored my backup and now I am back to having the same issue today. I assume the issue is with something coming from my backup / restore but is there any way for me to pinpoint what could be causing the issue. I have a lot of apps, I'd rather not have to reinstall and set them all backup manually, but I would if I knew that would fix the problem... but for all I know one of the apps could be causing it.
Anyone have any logs I can check or testing I can do on my end?
Thanks!

Unfortunately, Apple does not make any logs available to the average schmoe (like us) for networking, kernel dumps, or anything else (assuming, of course, it is not jailbroken).
Your best bet is to take it back into the store. Ask them to look at the notes in GCRM regarding the last time this occured, then explain after upgrading to 5.01 it is occuring again. Then ask them for a phone swap since it is a reoccuring issue and doesn't sound like an OS/SW issue. Good luck!

Excel Table with Data Connection Manual Text Entry Misaligned After Refresh

Greetings!
I have an Excel 2010 workbook that includes a table linked to my SharePoint 2013 site by a data connection. The SharePoint list feeds the table standard information that's managed on the SharePoint site, but I need the user of the Excel workbook to be able
to enter text manually in the workbook to associate local information with the line-items coming from the SharePoint list. To do this, I've added extra columns to the end of the table.
The user can enter information in the appropriate cells in the "extra" columns at the end of the table, but when I refresh the data connection, the addition of a new list item on the SharePoint side results in the user's manually entered text getting
out of alignment with the row it's supposed to be associated with.
Example
Column 1(SP)
Column 2(Extra)
Row 1
Item 1
Row 2
Item 2
Text entered for Item 2
Row 3
Item 3
Then, if I add a new item to the list in SharePoint, for example, something that would appear between the original items 1 & 2, after refreshing the table, I get the following:
Column 1(SP)
Column 2(Extra)
Row 1
Item 1
Row 2
New Item 1.5
Text entered for Item 2
Row 3
Item 2
Row 4
Item 3
The table's data connection is set to insert rows for new items, and I could swear I had this working properly once upon a time...but I can't seem to make it work now.
Any thoughts on what would cause this?
Thanks in advance!

Yes, it is. I realized after posting the first time, that I'd assigned the question to the Visio forum. I wasn't sure how to reassign to the correct (Excel) forum, so I re-posted over there:

Create a ReportingServices data source and upload to a data connection library

I have installed reporting services 2012 in SharePoint 2013 integrated mode. I need to create a report data source and upload it to a data connection library using
C#.
As I know it uses the ReportingServices2010 class but I cannot explore a reporting server url.
There is a ReportingServices2010.asmx file in the 15 hive though.
Also it works fine when I manually set the data source.

How to move data connections with SOAP web service in different environments in InfoPath Forms 2010

Hello,
I've an InfoPath Form where I've around 10 SOAP web service data connections. They are calling a custom web service for a custom business process. The web service URL has a query string parameter which identifies whether it's a Test web service or the Production
one. The web service URL looks like this:
http://server/webservice/wsdl?targetURI=testSPRead (for the Test environment)
http://server/webservice/wsdl?targetURI=ProdSPRead (for the Production environment)
When I develop the form in Dev environment, I use the Test web service URL and save the data connection as UDCX files in the data connection library. After completing the development, when I deploy this Form in Production, I update the URL in the UDCX
file in the Production data connection library, but when I run the Form in Production, it throws error 'Error occurred in calling the web service'. After doing more research, when I extracted the XSN file and opened Manifest.xsf file in Notepad, I found the
references of 'testSPRead' parameter.
So, in the UDCX file the web service URL is '/targetURI=ProdSPRead' but in the Manifest.xsf file, there is a reference of Test web service parameter which is 'testSPRead' and that's why it's throwing error.
For testing purpose, I updated the Manifest.xsf file and replaced all the occurrences of 'testSPRead' to 'ProdSPRead' and also updated all the relevant files of the data connections (like XML, XSF etc.) and saved the Manifest.xsf as Form.xsn and deployed
in Prod and it worked.
The question is - is this the right way of doing it? There should be a simple method in such cases where web service has conditional parameter to identify the Test and Production web service.
Does somebody know what is the right way of doing it? I also thought of adding 'double' data connections - one set of Test and another set of Production and call them by identifying the current SharePointServerRootURL, but that's a lot of work. I've 10 web
service data connections in my Form and in that case I'll be having 20 data connections and setting their parameters in different Rules is too much work.
Please advise. It's very important for me!
Thanks in advance.
Ashish

Thanks for your response Hemendra!
I hope Microsoft improves this thing in subsequent patches of InfoPath 2010 or InfoPath 2013 because I don't think this is a very special requirement. This is failing the purpose of having UDCX files for data connections. Why the WSDL's parameter value
is being written in the Manifest.xsf and other XSF and XML files. InfoPath should always refer the URL and parameters from the UDCX files.

Is there a way to selectively put on and off your data-connection(3G)?

Hi there!
I'm currently working on an app that uses GPS to track a person's location, this location is than in turn send to an online database.
Obviously sending that location to the database requires an internet connection, I could use WIFI for that which is no issue but what if there's no WIFI available, if that's the case I want to use the phone's 3G data connection.
Since I only need that connection for a short period(just to send the location to the database) I think it's rather dumb to put it on when opening the app and keeping it on as long as the app is running.-->It would quickly drain the available data memory.
So my question is, is there a way to put the 3G connection ON and OFF in code? So the app would have the rights to do that.
To clarify: Suppose whenever I track a person's location(every 5 minutes for example --> that's sufficient for my app even though it doesn't seem so useful) I want to put on the 3G connection to send the location to the database.
The following 5 minutes however I've no need of that internet connection since no communication with the Database is required so I would want to put the 3G connection off then.
-->Is this possible?
Thanks in advance!
My best regards
Jan

There is no way to turn on and off the phones 3g connection via code.

Restoring a deleted column in Excel from a SharePoint Data Connection view

I used the "Export to Spreadsheet" option for a SharePoint document library to create my working report. I created a special view for this as I did not want all of the columns in my export. I build my report on a seperate tab in Excel
around this exported data and it has been working great. I recently added a new column to the view on SharePoint but it does not show up when I refresh my data. I tried manually adding the column, evening ensuring it was in the same orderl;
still no luck. The Connection file does not exist so I cannot edit the owssvr.iqy. All I have is the connection string and command text. I created a new workbook to see if the command string changed because of the new column but it did not.
I don't want to rebuild my report from scratch just because I added a new column, but it appears that may be the only option I have unless someone can answer my question.
Question: How can I get a new column from a view added to an existing data connection query?

Hi,
First, make sure you have added the new column into the view as well as the list.
Second, try to use "MSQuery" feature in Excel to check the issue.
For more information about MSQuery, please refer to the following link:

Powerpivot 2012 on Excel 2010 - External Data connections not saving passwords, having to re-enter password EVERYTIME I refresh data

Hey Guys,
Using Excel 2010 with latest version of Powerpivot 2012 available 11.1.3129.0
For my SQL Server Data connections in Powerpivot I DO NOT have any issue, when clicking refresh it never asks me to enter a password and uses my Windows AD info.
However, for my plethora of other external data connections (Informix, Oracle, Etc...) that I would like to have fluid use within Powerpivot, big problems.
Lets start with Oracle. Below is a screenshot of my connection tab within Powerpivot.
So as you can see, all the details are entered and Allow Saving Password is selected. Now I will close out of Powerpivot and Excel completely and re-open. I will navigate to the Powerpivot tab
and select Powerpivot Window. And then will select to "Refresh All" and am quickly prompted with the "Data Source Credentials" window to re-enter my data source password, again.
What I have already tried. The above method for starters in which I use a connection string under Table Import Wizard --> Others (OLEDB/ODBC)... I found it the least annoying route, although
still have to re-enter password everytime, which is what I hope this forum can help with.
I also have tried doing a direct Oracle connection in Table Import Wizard but also does not eliminate my #1 problem.
I have also created an ODC file to try and use that with stored credentials within the file, also still asks for password each and everytime.
The same thing happens with my other data connections to Informix and DB2. So any help and/or suggestions anyone has would be great. I also cant upload these powerpivots to our powerpivot gallery
on SharePoint 2010, I have a sneaking suspicion it is due to the version of powerpivot I am currently using.
Thanks

Hi there,
My company is not using Excel 2013, only 2010. So that is what I have to work with. From what I have read this is a huge hole in the Powerpivot 2012 framework and is extremely frustrating. This seems so basic and simple and like something everyone using
this product would use, and yet it still doesnt work.
Great feedback. Connect is the right place for this feedback on 2010 as well. Thanks!

How to create a data connection with dynamic XML file?

Thanks for all reply first!
I have formatted the submitted data into an XML file on the server side,this file can be import to PDF form correctly.
I try to send this XML file to the user to let him can review what he has submitted.
I guess that I should create a data connection to the XML file so that it can be reviewed by the user.
But the question is that the XML file is dynamic generated.
How can i do?
give me some clus or examples,please.
thanks,
Jasper.

Hi Jasper,
To show user back the result, you can use PDF instead of XML. You can store the PDF template in server and you can merge XML data with PDF template by Livecycle Form Data Integration service.
We, as KGC, can generate huge number of Adobe Livecycle forms in small periods. Also we give consultancy on Adobe Livecycle ES products and Adobe Livecyle Designer. In case of any need, do not hesitate to contact us.

How can I create a data connection without ODBC (directly with OLE DB)

If connecting to an OLE DB data source, which is not defined as ODBC, the well known error message appears in Acrobat, that the environment is not trusted. The Designer Help says, that the document must be certified in Acrobat to run OLE DB without ODBC. So I certified the document in Acrobat allowing dynamic content for it. But the error message always appears. So I have some questions to this:
How is the correct certification process in Acrobat to define a trusted environment for using OLE DB without ODBC?
Why generates using of ODBC an trusted environment? With using ODBC data sources can be changed external from Acrobat, so I must think, ODBC is absolutely insecure.
Why is OLE DB without ODBC insecure? Here I have a defined connection string, which cannot be changed at runtime (if the form developer this doesn't want).
And why is the first record displayed instead of the error message, if using OLE DB without ODBC, but navigation is impossible?
This seems all very mysterious to me.
Does anyone in the world has ever created an OLE DB data connection (without ODBC) with Designer and Acrobat, which runs in a trusted environment?
Thanks for your answers.
Michael

For the Projects, the trick will be the Asset files. If they will fit onto DVD DL discs, you're OK. If they are too large (DV-AVI is ~ 13GB per hour), then you'll need some type of backup, or spanning software, that will write files across multiple discs. A better choice, IMO, would be a 1 - 2 TB external, where you can use Project Manager, or just Windows Explorer and Copy, to do the entire Project folder with Assets. I'd recommend against a USB and go at least for FW-400. FW-800 would be better, but you'll need FW-800 connections on your computer. eSATA would be the best, but then you'll need eSATA connectors.
Good luck,

Excel 2013 crashes when creating VFP OLE DB Data connection

Hi all,
I don't know how often the DBF format is used in Office but it seems some demand still exists because Microsoft created 64 bit version of dBase ODBC and OLE DB driver (in Access data engine). Then I don't understand why Microsoft ignores its own FoxPro
DBF data format because FoxPro ODBC driver is not supported already and no 64 bit version of VFP OLE DB driver is planned...
I am testing DBF file import to Excel 2013 (32 bit) but it crashes instantly. I have VFP OLE DB driver (the last version), some small DBF file, and I am trying to read it as external data in Excel.
Steps to reproduce (menu prompts are translated, so some differences may occur):
Open empty worksheet
Click "Other data sources" on Data ribbon
Select Data Connection Wizard and from the list of available drivers select "Other" and click "Next"
A list of OLE DB providers installed appears, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro and click "Next >>"
Excel 2013 crashes...
This process works in Excel 2010 and 2007 so the problem must be in Excel 2013...
The question is how to read DBF data in FoxPro format when there is no older Office version available?

To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Excel
Open an Excel worksheet.
From the Data menu, point to Import External Data, and click
Import Data.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
To connect to a Visual FoxPro database or table in Word
Open a Word document.
From the View menu, point to Toolbars, and click
Database.
On the Database toolbar, click the Insert Database icon.
In the Database dialog box, click Get Data.
In the Select Data Source dialog box, click New Source Data Connection.
In the Data Connection Wizard, select Other/Advanced.
In the Provider tab, select Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro.
The Connection tab in the Data Link Properties dialog box appears.
To add a Visual FoxPro database or table folder
On the Connection tab and in the Select or enter a database name box, type path and name of the database or table folder you want.
-or-
To browse for a Visual FoxPro database or table folder, click the ellipsis (...) button to the right of the
Select or enter a database name box to open the Configure Connection dialog box.
Specify a different collating sequence if desired.
To test the connection, click Test Connection. If connection is successful, click
OK.

Voice vs. Data Connectivity

It's a fact of life calls get dropped on cellular networks. My questions concern the relationship of dropped voice calls vs. dropped data calls. I have yet to read anything, anywhere mentioning a distinction between the two by users of the AT&T network. Is it safe to assume most people are complaining about dropped voice calls? If a data connection is lost will it attempt to re-connect itself?
AT&T has only recently offered service in my area but I intend on using my yet-to-be-purchased iPhone nationally and internationally. Internet access outside of cities and form factor of the iPhone are more important to me than making voice calls.

Not to be argumentative but this isn't correct.
When your iPhone says 3G it means that it is using UMTS (W-CDMA) for both Voice and Data connections. This is a very different protocol and works over different frequencies than GSM.
When your iPhone says EDGE then it is using the GSM network for Voice on a GSM Cell that supports EDGE specific data enhancements to increase data throughput over normal GSM data (GPRS).
Finally when your iPhone doesn't say EDGE or 3G then it is on a GSM Cell that doesn't support the EDGE data enhancements.
So really the 3G iPhone has to choose between two different Cellular technologies, 2G (GSM) or 3G (UMTS) and the device can't communicate on both of these technologies at the same time.
Have a read of the wiki pages for more information:
UMTS (WCDMA): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WCDMA
GSM: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GSM
Hope this clears things up.
