Best way to create a popup spreadsheet from a button or hyperlink? Perhaps even without macros?

So the spreadsheet would be contained within the popup above the initial workbook worksheet and could be
closed/dismissed.
What are the best options?

Hi,
If I understanding correctly, you want to click the button or hyperlink and then a new worksheet popup from the initial workbook, right? If it is, there is no Excel feature like this, we may need to add a command button and use a macro.
Sample code:
Dim WS as Worksheet
Set WS = Sheets.Add
If I misunderstand, please let me know.

What is the best way to create a database schema from XML

What is the best way to create a database schema from XML?
i have a complex XML file that I want to create a database from and consistently import new XML files of the same schema type. Currently I have started off by mapping the XSD into Excel and using Mysql for Excel to push into MySQL.
There must be a more .net microsoft solution for this but I cannot locate the topic and tools by searching. What are the best tools and way to manage this?
Taking my C# further

Hi Saythj,
When mentioning "a database schema from XML", do you mean the
XML Schema Collections? If that is what you mean, when trying to import XML files of the same schema type, you may take the below approach.
Create an XML Schema Collection basing on your complex XML, you can find
many generating tools online to do that.
Create a Table with the above created schema typed XML column as below.
CREATE TABLE youTable( Col1 int, Col2 xml (yourXMLSchemaCollection))
Load your XML files and try to insert the xml content into the table above from C# or some other approaches. The XMLs that can't pass the validation fail inserting into that table.
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

Best way to create a conact list from the user profile properties

We have a customer looking for a phone book utility, starting with a table showing main user information and with some search options. We would like o base it on the user profile properties and not to create an indipendent studion record browser porlet.
What is best way to create a conact list from the user profile properties ?

I did something like this using search. It can get messy, so you need to take care with it.
* Identify the properties you want to make accessible to search (ex: name, etc.)
- add them to the user property map
- flag them as searchable
* I broke down and used the native server API. I'd still suggest this approach.
* Write some simple code to do vcard export if you like
(my code is all in vb.net)
I really believe this is the "right" approach, but honestly, this was a bit painful and has been
messy for us given some other business issues. (to my chagrin we have users with 2-letter last
names...)
I have code you're welcome to poke at, but it's more or less slapped together and has various
different search methods commented out so you can see how I tinkered w/ the remote vs. server
API.
If you'd like it mail me at [email protected] and I'll send you a zipped copy w/ a
readme. I hope it may be useful to you as both a starting reference.

Best way to create a Windows service from a LabVIEW executable?

What would be the best way to run a LabVIEW executable as a service? I needed this recently and I think I have set up such a service using srvany.exe from the Windows 2003 Resource Kit, but that seems like a bit of a hack. The Kit is not offically supported in Server 2008, but seems to work. I don't know about Server 2012 or beyond.
So what would be the "proper" way of going about creating a Windows service from a headless LabVIEW application?

The proper way is to interface to the according Windows service control API. That is however not a trivial task to do. We used to sell a LabVIEW toolkit which supported a full interface to this, but it's not currently actively marketed.
srvany.exe is sort of a hack but works reasonably well for most use cases, as long as you do not need any further interaction with the service manager interface in Windows than to start and stop your service.

Best way to create nice, wide vocals from a 2 part harmony?

I know there's no "best" way. But I have a chorus line I've written with a two part harmony. I want it to sound wide and full. What's a good approach to take right now. How many passes of each vocal line should I record? What approach should I take with panning all the parts? And, how might I possibly the whole vocal mix fill a wide frequency range?
I've tried a LOT of things but I feel like I'm wandering in the dark because I'm quite novice when it comes to mixing vocals (besides having 2 part vocals where both takes are basically EQd the same but jut panned differently). It's time I break outside of the box!
Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

This is where you get to choose, as mix engineer/producer. No matter how many tracks we put down, comp, mult etc, there comes a time to make decisions.
What is more important, more prominent, aids the song in it's entirety. Basically, you're talking about overlapping frequencies. So where the vocals and the synths are together in your chorus you are getting a lot of frequencies in one range.... lets say the lower mids (always a tricky area) 200 - 300Hz.
You have two basic tools instantly to hand. Volume and frequency. I am simplifying. You can get your levels in the right ballpark (of course you can fine tune with volume automation) and you can tailor with EQ. If there is too much 250hz in the chorus, you need to cut something. One thing makes room for another thing. What this thing is, is entirely up to you. There are no rules for this. If all your sources in the chorus cover the whole frequency spectrum and the whole stereo field you are going to have to decide.
In one song I mixed recently, the lead vocal was doubled. The intro was sung over a fairly clean picked guitar. I had the two vocals panned just narrow of 9 and 3 o clock. When the verse burst in there are 14 distorted guitars filling the stereo spectrum from hard panned left and right to about 10 and 2 o clock positions. I automated the vocal to become much narrower, 5 points either side of centre for this part of the song. It doesn't sound odd on playback or as drastic as you may think. What it does is make room for these massive guitars and it worked well on this particular song. What it also did was make room for the odd backing vocal that sporadically appear in the song.
So in this case it was making room on the stereo spread that helped the mix and no eq was changed. That was my decision.
So basically, if there's too much of everything you need to turn something down or move it out of the way. This can be in frequency, volume or stereo field.

Best Way to Create Array of Values From ArrayCollection

I often use Arrays of values from ArrayCollections in my
application in order to facilitate faster performance when
filtering other Collections.
For instance, let's say I have an ArrayCollection of Objects
with the properties "id", "name", "label", and "isActive". What
would be the best way to get an Array of all the "id" values?
Right now, I am looping over the ArrayCollection, and adding
the value of the property I need to an Array using Array.push().
For larger Collections, this seems like overkill. I was wondering
if anyone knew of some quicker way to get an Array of values of one
property from an Array Collection.
My current method for doing this is attached below...
Thanks.

No, that won't work - toArray() simply returns the entire
Collection as an Array.

Best way to create SVG file from drawing application?

I am developing a drawing application that allow the users to draw and edit static two dimensional images such as Rectangles, Ellipses and Text. I have a superclass SVGShape that contains all the common features of a shape such as x1, x2, color etc. I then have SVGRectangle as a subclass of SVGShape.
I want to know what would be the best way to create an SVG file from this? An idea I have at the minute is to have an abstract method getSVG() in the SVGShape class, and then implement the method in the subclasses. I will then create a new class called SVGManager which iterates through the list of shapes (Btw I'm using MVC, my shapes are stored in a Collection) and uses the getSVG() mehtod in each shape to build up a SVG file.
What do you think of this? Any better ideas?
Thanks guys

I used a visitor for this in a similar project, so that when the svg library is used in a applet or browser and the writing functionality isn't required, it may be omitted from the bundle.

What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

What is the best way to create Aperture book from Pages '09 document?

There is no way to import pages documents to Aperture and convert them to an Aperture book. Aperture books can only be created by manually adding images and text to the pages of a book, and using the layout of the predefined templates.
The best you could do, would be to print your pages document to pdf and import the resulting pdf file into Aperture as a new project. This will create one image for each page. Then select the page images all at once and create a new book. Select a theme with fullsize page images, like "picture Book", and then add the images of the pages to the empty pages of the book.
But probably would you get a much better quality and layout, when you recreate your pages document in Aperture, by starting with an empty book and copying and pasting the text from your Pages document. But don't paste the photos from the document - try to use the originals of those photos.

What is the best way to create a SSRS 2005 Line Chart Report for a 12 month period?

I'm looking for advice on how to create a SQL Server 2005 query and line chart report for SSRS 2005.
I need to display the peak number of patients assigned to a medical practice each month for a 12 month period based on the end-user selecting a
single month and year.
I've previously created a report that displays all patients assigned to the practice for any single month but I’m looking for advice on how to
how to produce a resultset that shows the peak number of patients each month for a 12 month period. I thought about creating a query that returns the peak count for each month (based on my previously created report which displays all patients assigned to the
practice for any single month) and then use a UNION statement to join all 12 months but I'm sure that isn't the most efficient way to do this. The other challenge with this approach (twelve resultsets combined via a UNION) is that the end-user needs to be
able to select any month and year for the parameter and the report needs to display the 12 month period based on the month selected (the month selected would be the last month of the 12 month period).
For the report I’ve previously created that displays all patients assigned to the practice for any single month, the WHERE statement filters the
resultset on two fields:
Start Date - The date the patient was assigned to the practice. This field is never null or blank.
End Date - The date the patient left the practice. This field can be null or blank as active patients assigned to the practice do not have an End Date. When the patient
leaves the practice, the date the patient left is populated in this field.
Using these two fields I can return all patients assigned to the practice during Nov 2012 by looking for patients that meet the following criteria:
start date prior to 11/30/2012 (using the last day of the month selected ensures patients added mid-month would be included)
AND
end date is null or blank (indicates the patient is active) OR the end date is between 11/1/2012 -11/30/2012 (returns patients that leave during the month
selected)
Regarding the query I need to create for the report that displays the peak count each month for 12 months, I'm looking for advice on
how to count patients for each month the patient is assigned to the practice if the patient has been assigned for several months (which applies to most patients). Examples are:
John Doe has a start date of 6/01/2012 and an End Date of 10/07/2012
Sally Doe has a start date of 8/4/2012 and no End Date (the patient is still active)
Jimmy Doe has a  start of 7/3/2012 and an End Date of 9/2/2012
Given these examples how would I include John Doe in the peak monthly count each month for May - October, Sally Doe in the peak monthly count for
August - December and Jimmy Doe in the peak monthly count for July – Sept if the end-user running the report selected December 2012 as the parameter?
Given the example above and the fact I'm creating a line chart I think the best way to create this report would be a resultset that looks like
this:
Patient Name
Months Assigned
John Doe
June 2012
John Doe
July012
John Doe
Aug 2012
John Doe
Sept 2012
John Doe
Oct 2012
Sally Doe
Aug 2012
Sally Doe
Sept 2012
Sally Doe
Oct 2012
Sally Doe
Nov 2012
Sally Doe
Dec 2012
Jimmy Doe
July 2012
Jimmy Doe
Aug 2012
Jimmy Doe
Sept 2012
From the resultset above I could create another resultset that would count\group on month and year to return the peak count for each month:
June 2012 - 1
July 2012 – 2
Aug 2012 - 3
Sept 2012 - 3
Oct 2012 - 2
Nov 2012 - 1
Dec 2012 - 1
The resultset that displays the peak count for each month would be used to create the line chart (month would be the X axis and the count would
be the y axis).
Does this sound like the best approach?
If so, any advice on how to create the resultset that lists each patient and each month they were assigned to the practice would be greatly appreciated.
I do not have permissions to create SPs or Functions within the database but I can create temp tables.
I know how to create the peak monthly count query (derived from the query that lists each patient and month assigned) as well as the line chart.
Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I reviewed them shortly after they were submitted but I'm also working on other projects at the same time (hence the delayed reply).
Building a time table and doing a cross join to my original resultset gave me the desired resultset of the months assigned between dates. What I can't figure out now is how to filter months I don't want.
Doing a cross join between my original resultset that had two dates:
08/27/2010
10/24/2011
and a calendar table that has 24 rows (each month for a two year period)
my new resultset looks like this:
I need to filter the rows in yellow as the months assigned for stage 3 that started on 8/27/2010 should stop when the patient was assigned to stage 4 on 10/24/2011.
You'll notice that Jan - Sept 2011 isn't listed for Stage 4 assigned on 10/24/2011 as I included a filter in the WHERE clause that states
the Months Assigned value must be greater than or equal to the date assigned value.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Best way to create pop-up menu's

Hi All,
I have been having a heck of a time doing something that i
would have assumed to be relatively simple - specifically creating
a pup-up menu.
My first set of approach was to dynamically create a movie
clip on a button rollover, and within that movieclip create several
other movie clips that i then assigned actions too. The problem was
that since i applied a action on "rollout" on the initial movie
clip, it became a button, and as such all of the sub
movieclips/buttons became in active (any click was only detected on
the parent).
My second set of attempts have been around the MenuComponent
(see other posts), but here too i have hit problems, initially with
animation and depth. I solved the animation issue, but the depth
problem remains.
Now, i see pop-up menu's everywhere, so i assume that this is
a relatively simple problem - so what am i missing. A google search
showed up lots of examples of how to do using menu that are created
in the UI (rather than purely in AS), using purchased components.
The first case is not an option since i need to create it fully
dynamically, the second would be an option - however i typically
need a far greater level of visual control than off the shelf
components provide (hence i have needed to build up my own class
library for many common tasks).
So after all that, i have a simple question.
"What is the best way to create a dynamic popup menu in
AS2?"
Regards
Neil

I guess you want to make your own popup menu, if I understand
correctly. Nothing simpler, your first attempt was in the right
direction, you just don't assign button actions to the parent clip,
because you won't get the child clips to work, but add another
child at the lowest level inside the parent, that acts as a
"background" clip/button.
And for the rollout for the entire popup, you can add a
transparent clip just under the popup (which is at the currently
topmost depth) covering the entire stage, give it rollover that
acts as your rollout, and make it not use the hand currsor, so you
can't tell it's there.
That's how I do it, anyways..

WHAT IS THE BEST WAY TO CREATE AN XSD FILE (TO BE USED BY SOAP ADAPTER)

Dear friends
I have a simple scenario.
OUTBOUND DATA --> SOAP ADAPTER --> ( XI ) --> RFC ADAPTER --> INBOUND DATA
The XML file that I got from mapping area of IR (Design) is as follows
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_NAME_SOURCE xmlns:ns0="http://test3.com">
<FIRSTNAME>DAVE</FIRSTNAME>
<LASTNAME>SMITH</LASTNAME>
</ns0:MT_NAME_SOURCE>
If you notice, there are only 2 fields.
I need to create an XSD file and import it as an external object, which I can use for SOAP Adapter.
Which is the best way to create it.
Also, I need to know if there is any step by step of sending a message from XML SPY. I have downloaded this software, but am not able to undertand how to use this.
Hope to hear from any experts on this forum.
Thanks in advance
Ram

Hi Ram,
See the below blog..
It shows how to send SOAP message using XML Spy.
It also shows how to generate wsdl.

What is the best way to create business documents in CRM

Hi All,
What is the best way to create business documents like contract, sales order, debit memo etc in CRM ? Unlike R3 we can't use our good old BDC with recording. Moreover for most of them although there are Business Object but no BAPI to creation so what is the way ? I found in SDN there are two MAGIC Function module CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE. Do I need to that alawys ?
Is it nees to via IDoc and cannot be done just by calling from ABAP program ? The input parameter of the FM is a complex deep structure.
Please help.

Ashim,
Try looking at the program:
CRM_TEST_ORDER_MAINTAIN
I think that should help you figure out the parameters.
Good luck,
Stephen
