Attachment converting to Read Only

Hello,
I've created a form in livecycle that has signature fields. The actual pdf has a microsoft word document (.doc) attached to it so people can add links to the form. When I open the form and fill it out, then open the attachment and add links everything works fine. However, when I sign the pdf form using the signature field, someone else who opens the pdf form and then the word document attachment can only see the attachment in Read Only mode. Is there a way to stop the addition of a signature from making the attachment Read Only?

Menus cannot be made READ_ONLY - this attribute applies only to functions. You will have to build a custom menu with custom functions that are READ_ONLY, then assign the custom menu to a custom responsibility.

How do I convert a read only word doc to a read only pdf file?

How do I convert a read only word doc to a read only pdf file?
Thanks, Linda

Hi Linda,
I just tried it, and was able to convert a Word .doc to to PDF, in spite of the fact that it was marked Read Only. Here are the instructions for uploading and converting to PDF with Acrobat.com:

Read only responsibility

Hi
I would like to create Read Only responsibility for administration purpose. As i have seen in this forum that, there are some read only resposibilities for AR, HR, AP etc. Like wise responsibility for administration purpose. I do not want to create new with new menu etc.
Regards

You can set "HR: Query Only" Profile option to Yes at responsibility level for HRMS.
Another way is you can create a responsibility with a data group that is attached to a read only database user. You might find the folliowing link helpful in creating the readonly apps database user and responsiility

Convert editable PDF to read-only when sent in an email - JavaScript

I have a real estate company that is trying to have an application that a agent and customer can fill in the needed information, hit a submit button, have the javascript compose an email with the attached pdf. Here's the issue I'm having: I need to be able to convert the editable pdf to a read only so when the customer receives a copy they cannot edit the information again.
Here is my javascript code for the submit button:
// This is the form return email. It's hardcoded
// so that the form is always returned to the same address.
// Change address on your form to match the code below
// Send to buisness email
var cToAddr = "[email protected]";
// First, get the client CC email address
var cCCAddr = this.getField("1st Tenant Email").value;
if(cCCAddr != "")
// Now get the second email only if it is filled out
var cBenAddr = this.getField("2nd Tenant Email").value;
if(cBenAddr != "")
// Now get the third email only if it is filled out
var cthirdAddr = this.getField("3rd Tenant Email").value;
if(cthirdAddr !="")
// Set the subject and body text for the email message
var cSubLine = "Test - Lease Form"
var cBody = "Thank you for submitting your form.\n" + "Save the filled form attachment for your own records"
// Send the entire PDF as a file attachment on an email
this.mailDoc({bUI: true, cTo: cToAddr, cCc: (cCCAddr + "; "
+ cBenAddr + "; " + cthirdAddr), cSubject: cSubLine, cMsg: cBody});

Hi keely,
Firstly you will need to buy a Reader Extensions license (this allows Reader to save the form data - otherwise the client will require Acrobat). Once this is done, you will then need a button (called "Lock Down" or something) that executes a script that makes all of the fields readOnly and updates a form variable (say, "locked") to indicate that the form is locked. You will also need to add a script to the initialize event that checks for the value of "locked", then executes the readOnly script (if the form needs to be locked down). An example of a readOnly script can be found on page 434 of http://www.adobe.com/go/learn_lc_scriptingReference (see "Disabling all form fields" script)
Here is a sample form ( https://files.acrobat.com/a/preview/9df046bd-1125-4923-95de-35fc845139ca ) with a 'Lock All fields' button. Once you click this button all the forms turn 'Read only'.
Another way to accomplish this which still requires Reader Extensions or Acrobat Pro is to use digital signatures. The people you are sending this to should have certificates set up.
Hope this helps.

Rave

When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text. How can I solve this problem?

When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text. How do I solve this problem? I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

Dear Sara
Thank you very much for sending the converted file. Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful). I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK". However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before. I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images. Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian." Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!

Judith.

AW attach in Read-only Mode in AWM

Hi,
How can I attach an AW in Read-only mode in AWM, so that multiple developers can open an AW but only one can modify it?
Regards, Anirban

See the documentation for the AW ATTACH command.
>
RW
Specifies that the workspace is attached in read/write access mode. Only one user can have an analytic workspace open in read/write at a time. The user has to commit either all or none of the changes made to the workspace.
An analytic workspace that is attached read/write non-exclusive can be accessed simultaneously by several sessions. The read/write non-exclusive attach mode is only compatible with the read-only access mode. A user can attach an analytic workspace in read/write mode when other users have the workspace attached in read-only mode; however, a user cannot attach an analytic workspace in read/write mode when another user has it attached in any other mode. Likewise, a user cannot attach an analytic workspace in any mode other than read-only when another user has it attached in read/write non-exclusive mode. When you attach an analytic workspace with read/write access, Oracle OLAP executes a program called PERMIT_WRITE, when it finds one in the workspace.

Attach Operation is disabled in READ ONLY MODE - solman_setup error message

Hello Gurus,
I am in the phase - Connect Diagnostic Agent of the Solman_Setup for Solman 7.0 EHP1.
I don't have any managed system connected yet.
When I try to attach the SMD agent in the SLDAgentCandidates screen...I get two messages as detailed below:
2011.04.13 20:14:12, Managing System 'SL1.SystemHome.sol' is registered in the SLD, Customization of Managing system settings is disabled but it is not a problem to attach the agent.
2011.04.13 20:14:12, Attach operation is disabled in READ ONLY MODE. The current logon user is not a member of Administrator
Please what am I doing wrong because I even gave full authorization (SAP_ALL and SAP_NEW) to user SLDAPIUSER and i have also tried with a few user accounts wilth full authorization like J2EE_ADMIN and my SOLMAN administrator.

Hello John,
You get the ead-only message because your connected to the local SLD. You need to connect to the productive SLD.
But the other message (Customization of Managing system settings is disabled) I get also. Did you solve it already?

Convert standby to read only

Hi,
Oracle 11gR2 / Unix
I want to convert standby database (2 node rac) currently (which is in mount mode) to open read only mode. Can someone please help me steps to be done?
Thanks

>from which node shall I run command to cancel manage recovery and .make it read only
In DataGuard (or manual Standby) even if the Standby database is RAC, only one node and instance is used to manage recovery. So, you would be having the database instance up and applying managed recovery on only one node. You would stop managed recovery on that node and shutdown and startup (read only) again on that node.
>So Is it safe to keep it in read only mode for longer time?
You'll be building up a backlog of archivelogs. You need to ensure that you have enough disk space (on the primary and standby) for those archivelogs.
Also note that your DR protection will be unavailable while the standby is OPEN READ ONLY. If your primary goes down after 12hours or 24hours, your Standby has data only as of 12hours or 24hours ago. Some sites choose to build 2 standby's, one continuously running recovery and another open READ ONLY as and when required. OR to use Active Dataguard Licence.

Enhancement request - ADF BC convert EO based VO to read-only VO

Hi
Can't see if we can do the following in 11g (or 10.1.3); is it possible? Otherwise would be a nice to have.
If at design time I mistakenly create an ADF BC VO as one that is based on an EO (ie. updateable VO), but it would be better suited to a read-only VO (for the documented runtime efficiencies), a tool to convert the updateable VO to a read-only VO without losing the attributes and SQL query settings would be great. Ideally a right mouse click option on the VO or via the VO document window as an option.
Cheers,
CM.

I've filed Enh. Req. # 6040888 for tracking.
You should be able to copy the existing query to the clipboard, remove the entities, then paste in the query again.
Numerous new runtime features in 11g depend on having an EO-based view object, and the runtime overhead is not large, so in practice our internal best practice for our own Oracle Applications development teams will be to use entity-based VO's most of the time going forward.
It's true there is a small amount of overhead still, and view objects used for SQL-based validation purposes will still be good candidates (as well as view objects that don't want to see the pending changes in the entity cache for some application-specific reason).

How to convert read-only disk image to read/write disk image?

There was some problem with the Mavericks firmware and i keep getting the "white screen of death". I tried the method of backing up Macintosh HD to an external drive via Disk Utility. The problem is I saved it as a compressed file (read-only). I wasn't aware of the problem and went ahead and delete the original Macintosh HD files and set up everything fresh.
Then when i wanted to back up all my old files from Macintosh HD disk image back up that i created, i can't because the dmg is read-only. I tried to convert it to read/write with disk utility but it couldn't.
Is there another way to extract the videos and photos? That's all i need.

A blank empty read only disk image has never been possible. If it's read-only, it cannot be modified, and so it would be blank and empty forever. Not much point in that.
If you want read-only and encryption on your finished disk image, you'll have to put your files into a folder, and then do File -> New -> Disk image from folder.

EMail attachment - Excel - Read only

Hi Guys,
I am send a email with an attachment using the F.M. - SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1,
I am attaching a excel file also and everything works perfect but I wamt to make the attached excel file as READ-ONLY file Now it is modifiable, Please let me know is there any possible way to do it.
Regards,
Prabhu

Hi Prabhu,
As you want to make the file READ ONLY, i do not think it is possible with this function module. But there is another option which will make your file non transferable.
Pass RECEIVERS-NO_FORWARD = 'X' in SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 function module.
Hope this will help you out.

Converting a non-read only menu to read only.

Hi I am looking for a way that I can take a menu in EBs and then convert that menu to read only, this process should also include all of the functions and the submenus.
Thanks

How to attach an external USB drive read-only

I would like to hook up an external USB hard drive and would like to do so in such a manner as to ensure that absolutely nothing is modified on the drive at all. Is there some way I can specify this before I connect the drive or while I plug it in? (e.g. hold down the shift key or something like that.) I have found all sorts of posts from folks who wanted to know how to turn off read-only mode, but haven't had much luck finding out how to turn it on.
I noticed recently when I plugged in a USB stick that it sat and blinked for some time. I'm guessing that OS X was busy indexing the drive. I'm not sure if the index was written back to the USB stick, or cached somewhere locally. If it was written back to the USB stick, I would like to prevent this from happening when I plug in a real drive.
Thanks for any tips you can give me.
--wpd

If the drive is formatted NTFS, it will automatically mount read-only. If it is formatted HFS+ or FAT, I don't know of any way to external drives to mount read-only without installing OS X Server for $500.

Unable to save Word documents when accessing them directly from the site because the document never converts from a read-only even though the User chooses to enable editing

Issue has only popped up recently and cannot reproduce in a Test environment. Unaware of any SharePoint changes, so hoping someone can point me in the correct direction.
Previously Word document did not have to be physically checked out, but rather the editing of the doc also checked out the doc in a document library. This is the way we want it to remain –
no manual check-out process. Now if a doc is edited without being checked-out, there is an issue with the process as the application thinks the doc is read-only (message received when trying to save the doc) even if enable editing is selected. The
following message appears when you try to save the document:
This message can appear if you have been editing a file that was opened as read-only. A file opened as read-only will have (Read-Only) appended to the file name as it appears in the title bar of Word. You can still save the document, but you must
save it by using a different file name. If you use Windows Explorer to change the read-only properties of the file, while the file is open in Word, it will not enable Word to save the file. Word must open a non-read-only version of the file in order to save
it by using its original file name. If you have not made any changes to the file, you can close it, and then use the following steps to make the file writeable. 1. Click the File tab, and then click Open. 2. Browse to the file and right-click it. 3. Click
Properties, and then clear the Read-Only check box. 4. Reopen the file. If you have made changes to a read-only file, you can save it, and then use the following steps to give the modified file the original file name. 1. Click the File tab, and then click
Save As. 2. Enter a different file name, and then click Save. 3. NOTE: Adding "Rev1", or "Mod1" to the original file name may help you to remember it later. 4. Click the File tab, and then click Close. 5. Open Windows Explorer. 6. Browse
to the original read-only file. 7. Rename the read-only file. 8. Browse to the new file. 9. Rename the new file to the name of the original file. Do not delete the read-only file until after you have determined you no longer need it.
Previously, when check-out was optional, a file was checked out automatically when someone opened it for editing, unless it was already checked out. The editing commands notified the User that the file is being/was checked out. The real issue is the
word doc can no longer be saved as the application still believes the doc is read-only.

Hi,
According to your description, you give the domain admin full control over files on the old file server, but you cannot move the files to the new file server. After pull the files from the old to the new file server, the domain admin can only read the files
on the new file server.
How did you move the files from the old file server to the new file server? Did you setup replication between the two file server or use robocopy?
Please check the files permissions on the new file server to see if the permissions are changed, then share the folder on the new file server to everyone to see the result.

Mandy

Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only.

Trying to follow Serge Luca's Step by Step Tutorial. Creating Workflows for Windows Sharepoint Services and MOSS2007. http://sergeluca.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E8A06D5F2F585013!859.entry
I have an onWorkflowActivated, followed by an ifElse condition and a log to history.
In the IfElse, each branch has a code segment, that trys to update the status column in the list that the workflow is attached to.
private void Authorize_ExecuteCode(object sender, EventArgs e)
// tried serveral methods
WorkflowProperties.Item["Status"] = "Automatically Approved";
// tried all of the following (one at a time)
item.update();
WorkflowProperties.Item.Update();
WorkflowProperties.Item.SystemUpdate();
//tried this as well.
Microsoft.SharePoint.SPListItem item = WorkflowProperties.Item;
item["Status"] = "Automatically Approved";
item.Update() ;
On the update call I keep getting "Invalid data has been used to update the list item. The field you are trying to update may be read only."
Could someone explain how to update "Status" column of the list item that the workflow is working on?
Thank you very much.
Bill

Hi:
you can do the following:
add the following code to the workflow.xml file (under the MetaData section)
Code Snippet
<ExtendedStatusColumnValues>
<StatusColumnValue>Branch1</StatusColumnValue>
<StatusColumnValue>Branch2</StatusColumnValue>
</ExtendedStatusColumnValues>
then add 2 SetState activities one in each branch of the IfElse.
for the code behind of setState1 (branch1) write the following code:
Code Snippet
state = Convert.ToInt32(SPWorkflowStatus.Max);
for setState2 (branch2) write the following:
Code Snippet
state = Convert.ToInt32(SPWorkflowStatus.Max) + 1;
where state is the variable assigned to the field State in the properties of the SetState(design lever), or instead of state u can use the following code:
Code Snippet
((SetState)sender).State
where sender is the object sent through the function parameter.
hope this answered your question
Best Regards
