Best way to export data with r.t. prompts and have dense dim mbrs on rows?

Hi All-
What is the best way to export data with Run time prompts out of Essbase?
One thought was to use Business Rules with run time variables and DATAEXPORT command, but I came across at least one limitation where I cannot have months (part of dense Time Periods dimension) on rows.
I have only two dense dimensions: Accounts and Time Periods and I need both of these on rows. This would come handy when user enter Start and End month and year for data to be exported e.g. If start period is Feb 2010 and end is Jan 2011, I get data for all months in 2010 and 2011.

Best way to export data for a migration

Hi Oracle Community,
What's the best way to export data from an Oracle 8i database for it to be suitable for import into an Oracle 10g database?
What's the best way to export data if it is to go into different rdbms database?
Thanks, David

Thanks everyone for all your help. You guys are great.
There seems to be many good ways to export your data from Oracle into a flat file format, suitable for import into other RDBS': Oracle, mysql, postgresql, etc.
A few tools where mentioned but using SQL*Plus, which comes with Oracle (And SQL*LDR on the backend, which also comes with Oracle) seem the most straight forward.
I found this script on asktom.oracle.com to work great, slightly modified here,
(to Include linesize max, and pipes rather than commas):
set echo off newpage 0 space 0 pagesize 0 feed off head off trimspool on
set linesize 32767
spool payment.txt
select
PAYMENT_ID||'|'||
USER_ID||'|'||
<more fields her>
from
payment
spool off
exit ;
It works great. Rather than making one of these for each table I wrote an perl script called ora_export. http://crowfly.net/oracle/ora_export. It runs in Unix and only requires SQL*PLUS. It creates these four files:
<tablename>.def # list of table columns and types (SQL*Plus DESC)
<tablename>_dump.sql # a script to export the data
<tablename>.psv # THE DATA (eq. - name|address|etc)
<tablename>_load.ctl # SQL*LDR control for ORCL if you need it.

That appears to be normal behavior for any RDBMS.
You can use the LEFT function to limit transmission volume from server to client:

Best way to export clips with effects, like project manager

First of all I would like to say hello to everybody, cause this is my first post, thanks in advance for your help.
The problem:
I'm running adobe premiere pro cs06 on a mac and what I want to do seems simple but is very difficult. I import material from an Alexa camera, putting all the clips to the timeline and add some effects to the clips, too.
Now I want to export all changed clips with the same codec, filename and timecode, just like I can do, when I use the project manager to consolidate my files.
So the goal is an easy way to add effects and export same as source?!
Again thank you very much
Cheers
Bird

Thank you for your answers so far,
First I dont want to export to the arriraw format, what I want to export to is prores444. The reason why is simply because there are some effekts that might speed up my workflow, let me explain:
Most jobs I do the following, I work as a DIT and colorcorrect footage from lots of cameras on set and export them to any kind of codec using davinci resolve.
The most time consuming progess is the neutralizing of all the different camera models..
With plugins like re:match from re:vision it could save me some time, due to its good auto correction, which would give me a good starting point for my further colorcorrection.
But in order to be faster than my normal way, I need to have some auto or same as source export funktion. Although when the clips match the original metadata I will have no problems in the later stages of my workflow.

Export data with definided fields terminated and rows terminate as bcp

hi to every one
i am dummy oracle and i need to test some database.
So i need to export some data in txt file and use @@@@@ as fields terminateed and ##### as rows terminated.
In mssql and in sybase there is a bcp command that by the client and cmd command u can estract the dataset like u want,
THERE IS SOMETHING LIKE THIS IN ORACLE
With the jdevelop u can export but not define all the rules.
thank a lot

Basically oracle exports are binairy but you could query the table and spool the output to a textfile with sqlplus.
sqlplys user/pw
spool c:\outputfile.txt
select '######' || col1 || '@@@@@' || col2
from table
spool off
exit

Best way to move date between LabVIEW 7.1 and 2010

We have a large LabVIEW based control and data acquisition system that for reasons beyond the scope of this post is at and needs to stay at LabVIEW version 7.1 for the forseeable future... We are soon to add a camera diagnostic to this system that, again for reasons beyond the scope of this post, needs to be written in LabVIEW 2010... The 2010 piece of code will run and need to receive some information such as shot number, when to trigger, etc. from the 7.1 side of the system... Then after a shot has occurred and a camera image has been acquired, the 2010 code will do some on the fly processing of this image and within a few seconds will need to send back some results data to the 7.1 side...
The 7.1 code uses a tag engine approach to sharing data among different codes running on different machines... I think now that more modern versions of LabVIEW use a shared variable approach... But I need to communicate as I've described above between the two versions, 7.1 and 2010 (or it could be 2011 if that would offer some advantage)...
I'm new at this moving of data between versions like this so if something could offer some advice, especially if there is some tutorial information on this topic, that would be much appreciated... Thanks in advance for any help that you might be able to offer... thanks... bob...

It really depends if your tag engine like communication approach is a home brown solution or something like the LabVIEW DSC engine. If homebrown and well written you should be able to reuse the client library part of it in newer LabVIEW versions without to many hassles. If it is LabVIEW DSC it may be a bit more complicated since the only means to share DSC tags in version 7.1 was as far as I can remember their proprietary TCP/IP tag interface, which was replaced in newer versions with he shared variable engine.

Best way to acquire data from both serial port and D/A board in real time?

In my experiment, I have 2 kinds of data: analog and digital. Now, I have to write a programme to acquire both data not only in real time but also in sychronicity. My colleague tried to write a program for this purpose. However, the digital part was failed. For example, the data length found from "data buffer" is correct in the first 10 seconds; however, the format became wrong later.
Is it one program involved two different data acquisition methods?

Hi,
You need to figure out when the serial port sample occured by some technique and then obtain the equivalent sample from the aquisition board, probably from a circular buffer. If you know the sample rate (pretty implicit really) you can 'cherry pick' the appropriate measurement from the buffer to be synchronus with the serial port measurement.

Best way to export iPhoto library?

Hey folks,
I was wondering what is the best way to export all the master/unedited images I have in my iPhoto 11' collection just to have it all in the Photos folder. I would like to start making the move to Lightroom 4 and give it a test drive. It would be nice to keep the organizational structure that I have going on now in iPhoto with my events. Can any one help? If Lightroom doesnt work out for me, I would want to make a referenced iPhoto Library and keep the images in the photos folder. Thanks for the help.

Have a look at my first post on this thread, which predates that export option in iPhoto, that pretty much deals with the issue with older versions. One of those options is free.
I'm just kind of irked by the idea that you should treat folders and files on your own computer as untouchable.
There are a couple of ways to look at this.
One: they're not at all untouchable. You have described perfectly how you might touch them. What we're saying is that touching them in that way may cause you dataloss, but if you want to do that, knock yourself out . But know the risks you're running. Look at it this way: there's no reason you have to use the doors on your car. You can jump through the sunroof, but don't be surprised if you hurt yourself on the gearstick.
Two: If you're the kind of person who really needs to visit with your files and folders for some reason, then run a referenced library. It makes for more work, adds zero extra capability and is likely to store up issues for the inexperienced user, but it's quite possible. For more about how, and the pitfalls:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
Three: The bigger issue here is that you're going to have problems in the future. The files/folders metaphor is going away in computing now. Everything - even text editors - are becoming databases. The files are just dumb storage, the important part is the data - the actual photos. iPhoto is about the data, not the files. The Finder is about files.

What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

Hi All,
We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
Thanks in advance,
- Shashi

Hello Shashi,
some comments:
1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

What is the best way to consolidate data on two Macs?

Hi All,
About to embark on a small project to move all my data on to my MacBook before finally saying goodbye to my trusty iMac. In order to do this I'll be upgrading the HDD on the MacBook to a large one and using Time Machine to restore all the original data onto the new drive. This bit I'm good with as I did it before when I upgraded the drive on my old iMac.
The main problem I have is that the majority of my photos, music, videos and documents are on my old iMac and I'd like to discuss the best way to merge these with a smaller amount of data that the MacBook has on it. Both machines are running Snow Leopard and I'm not aware of any tools that are currently available to do something like this although I am aware that Lion is supposed to have features that would consolidate everything to the cloud and might make things quite easy. This is something I would be willing to spend the £30 or so doing so if anyone has any experience of using Lion to merge everything across Macs to the cloud please let me know if you feel this would be a suitable approach.
Just to summarise the state my data is in currently and the approach I currently intend to take.
Have the Mobile Me service so Mail, Address Book, Calendars and all that stuff are all synced across both machines anyway.
Applications - Some stuff on the old Mac that I no longer user but nothing here that I really want to migrate. Some specific application stuff is mentioned below.
Movies - This is the bit that I'm most concerned about. Have a lot of legacy iMovie stuff on the old iMac which I'd like to keep. iDVD as well. Not sure of the best way to get this across and maybe it even warrants a separate discussion. Aside from that most of my older video stuff and projects are on the iMac with the newer stuff on the MacBook. I'm unaware of any function to export and import this but I have a large HDD which I can use to copy stuff over and am going to look into this a bit further. There will be a small amount of duplication here but this is manageable.
Documents - Will just copy these across and organise them as and when I need them. Again, a small amount of duplication but this is manageable.
Music - Pretty much all my stuff the old iMac. Can just export this and copy it onto the MacBook.
Pictures - Bit complicated this. Most of my stuff on the old iMac but some newer albums on the new MacBook. No duplication so presuming I can just export the library off the old iMac and import it on to the new MacBook.
No websites or anything like that.
iPhone currently syncs with iMac but once I have all the stuff over it should not be too hard to change this.
Just my user account on each machine that I really want to keep. Shared documents and other users accounts all contain temporary stuff that I'm happy to lose or archive.
Given this is anyone able to offer advice as to 1) Whether this is the best approach? 2) Have I considered everything? 3) Are there any tools that might help me?
Many thanks,
Tom

OK, seeing as no-one replied (presumably because a lot of this information is on the forums in bits elsewhere) here's how I've got on so far.
Applications - just went through them. About the only one I needed was my media server app. Just downloaded and re-installed, had a quick look back though my email to find the license key and it all went on fine. Installation never seemed quite right on my old machine so solved that problem too.
Movies - New iMovies just copied across the clips and projects into their respective folders. Seems to have worked but haven't checked it all that thoroughly. Some duplicate footage here but I can trim this out at some point when I get a chance to go through here.
Documents - Just copied these across.
Photos - used an app called iPhoto Library Manager. You can download for free but have to pay to use the part that consolidates your libraries. Possibly if I was willing to spend a bit more time I could have got away without using this but given I didn't know the state of my different libraries and just how many duplicates I had this was too much of a convenience to ignore. Also got my library into a state where I can now spend a few hours organising it a bit better with Faces / Events etc.
Not attempted Music or iPhone sync yet as been stuck trying to solve a problem with my power adapter.

Best way to extract data from archived cube

Hello Experts,
Can anyone tell me best way to extract data from archived cube.
Basically I am trying to pull all the data from archived cube and then load it into another brand new infoprovider which is in different box.
Also I need to extract all the master data for all infoobjects.
I have two options in my mind:
1) Use open hub destination
or
2) Infoprovider>display data>select the fields and download the data.
Is it really possible to extract data using option (2) if records are too high and then load it into another infoprovider in new system.
Please suggest me the pros and cons for the two options.
Thanks for your time in advance.

Hello Reddy,
Thanks a lot for your quick reply.
Actually in my case I am trying to extract archived infocube data and then load it into new infoprovider which is in different system. If I have connectivity I can simply export data source from archived infocube and then reload into new infoprovider.
But there is no connectivity between those two systems (where archived cube is and new infoprovider) and so I am left with the two options I mentioned.
1) Use Open Hub
or
2) Extract data manually from infoprovider into excel.
Can anyone let me know which of the two options is the best and also I doubt on how to use excel in extracting data as excel have limit of no.of records 65536
Thanks

What's the best way to export a 1280:720 mov file to high res wmv

Does anyone know the best way to export an HD 1280:720 Quick Time .mov to the highest possible res wmv?

fewer problems. It was a codec issue, I think regarding the latest codec. The solution, and it works for all the apps, was to make the frame divisible by 16 on all sides. It had to do with coding factors. But it worked. Since then, and the introduction of the iPad, we've dropped WMV altogether. We're now relying on Flash and MP4. MP4 is used in most places, particularly promos and marketing content. However, it's not at all easy to protect content from "redistribution" when using HTML5. It has a weakness in which it leaves a data trail that someone can follow back to the original video. Hmmm... so we code in a Flash wrapper, though I think my IT person may be using my MP4s for that. I'll have to check. Anyway, I'm down to mostly MP4 now.

What's the best way to export for print?

I usually upload images to my local photoprinting shop. What's the best way to do that with Lightroom? Since lightroom does the final sharpening in the print module, how do I get that into the exported file since there is no export function in the print module? Also, how do I get the proper dpi and sizing info into the photo for the print shop? Thanks.

There is no good way to prepare images for printing from a file from a commercial printer by using Lightroom alone. You need to do an export of the image without any resizing or color space conversion, and then use some other program of your choice to 'finish' the file.
It's just plain missing functionality... Lightroom assumes that you will be printing photos yourself and it is missing a whole lot of stuff in order to support external printing, including:
a) Resize to exact pixel dimensions. Many labs require an exact pixel count for a given print size, so for example for an 8x10 they need a 2400 x 3000 pixel image. Can't be done in Lightroom.
b) Trim adjustment. If you are doing full bleed photos (no margin), you might need to provide about 0.05 inch of 'trim space' to compensate for image loss during printing. Can't be done in Lightroom.
c) Exporting to a specific printer profile. Can't be done.
d) Adding margins, text, etc. Many times my clients want a 1/4 inch margin in their photos to facilitate framing, or I put a dim watermark type text in the bottom corner. Can't be done.
My solution. Do most processing in Lightroom, do an export, and then do a second export via qImage on a PC. It does all of the above plus much more. It's just a matter of using the right tool for the job, and LIghtroom has no facilities at all for printing to a file.
I have been asking for "Print to File" ever since I was under NDA during the betas.
