Best way to handle large list of results in recordsets?

Hello all.
I'm using Dreamweaver CS3, MySQL and ASP/VBScript.
My database of users behind my website is now approaching 25,000.
I often have to "move" items in the database from one user record to another.
Up and until now, I've done this simply by way of a drop down menu/list that is populated with the user ID# and Name of each and every user in the database. This previously allowed me to simply select the ID of the Customer I wanted to "Move" the record to.
The problem, is that the system is of course now trying to load a list of almost 25,000 user ID's each time I view the relevant site page, which is now taking so long to load it's uncomfortable.
I've seen other sites that allow you to start typing something in to a text box and it starts filtering the results that match as you type, showing a list below.
I assume (but am happy to be advised otherwise) that this is likely to be my best way forward, but I haven't the first clue how to do it.
Can anyone advise?
Regards
David.

You're looking for a 'type ahead' control. Try searching the web, although you may have trouble finding example code for classic asp. I did find some asp.net solutions out there.

Best way to handle large files in FCE HD and iDVD.

Hi everyone,
I have just finished working on a holiday movie that my octagenarian parents took. They presented me with about 100 minutes of raw footage that I have managed to edit down to 64 minutes. They have viewed the final version that I recorded back to tape for them. They now want to know if I can put it onto a DVD for them as well. Problem is the FCE HD file is 13Gb.
So here is my question.
What is the best way to handle this problem?
I have spoken to a friend of mine who is a professional editor. She said reduce the movie duration down to about 15mins because it's probably too long and boring. (rather hurtful really) Anyway that is out of the question as far as my oldies are concerned.
I have seen info on Toast 8 that mentions a "Fit to DVD" process that purports to "squash" 9Gb of movie to a 4.7Gb disk. I can't find if it will also put 13Gb onto a dual layer 8.5Gb disk.
Do I have to split the movie into two parts and make two dual layer DVD's? If so I have to ask - How come "Titanic", 3hrs+ fits on one disk??
Have I asked too many questions?

Take a deep breath. Relax. All is fine.
iDVD does not look at the size of your video file, it looks at the length. iDVD can accomodate up to 2 hours of movie
iDVD gives you different options depending on the length of your movie. Although I won't agree with your friend about reducing the length of your movie to 15 minutes, if you could trim out a few minutes to get it under an hour that setting in iDVD (Best Performance though the new version may have renamed it) gives you the best quality. Still, any iDVD setting will give you good quality even at 64 minutes
In FCE export as Quicktime Movie NOT any flavour of Quicktime Conversion. Select chapter markers if you have them. If everything is on one system unchecked the Make Movie Self Contained button. Drop the QT file into iDVD

Best way of handling large amounts of data movement

Hi
I like to know what is the best way to handle data in the following scenario
1. We have to create Medical and Rx claims Tables for 36 months of data about 150 million records each - First month (month 1, 2, 3, 4, .......34, 35, 36)
2. We have to add the DELTA of month two to the 36 month baseline. But the application requirement is ONLY 36 months, even though the current size is 37 months.
3 Similarly in the 3rd month we will have 38 months, 4th month will have 39 months.
4. At the end of 4th month - how can I delete the First three months of data from Claim files without affecting the performance which is a 24X7 Online system.
5. Is there a way to create Partitions of 3 months each and that can be deleted - Delete Partition number 1, If this is possible, then what kind of maintenance activity needs to be done after deleting partition.
6. Is there any better way of doing the above scenario. What other options do I have.
7 My goal is to eliminate the initial months data from system as the requirement is ONLY 36 months data.
Thanks in advance for your suggestion

Hi,
You should use table partitioning to keep your data on monthly partitions. Serach on table partitioning for detailed examples.

Best way to handle large amount of text

hello everyone
My project involves handling large amount of text.(from
conferences and
reports)
Most of them r in Ms Word. I can turn them into RTF format.
I dont want to use scrolling. I prefer turning pages(next,
previous, last,
contents). which means I need to break them into chunks.
Currently the process is awkward and slow.
I know there wud b lots of people working on similar
projects.
Could anyone tell me an easy way to handle text. Bring them
into cast and
break them.
any ideas would be appreciated
thanx
ahmed

Hacking up a document with lingo will probably loose the rtf
formatting
information.
Here's a bit of code to find the physical position of a given
line of on
screen text (counting returns is not accurate with word
wrapped lines)
This stragety uses charPosToLoc to get actual position for
the text
member's current width and font size
maxHeight = 780 -- arbitrary display height limit
T = member("sourceText").text
repeat with i = 1 to T.line.count
endChar = T.line[1..i].char.count
lineEndlocV = charPosToLoc(member "sourceText",
endChar).locV
if lineEndlocV > maxHeight then -- fount "1 too many"
line
-- extract identified lines "sourceText"
-- perhaps repeat parce with remaining part of "sourceText"
singlePage = T.line[1..i - 1]
member("sourceText").text = T.line[i..99999] -- put remaining
text back
into source text member

Best way to handle large number video files for a project..

Hey, I was looking at getting some insight from the community here. Bascially there is a project that is being worked on that requires large amount of footage to be sifted through that only a small percentage will be used. These are mostly HD files and while most of the footage has been watched on Quicktime with notes taken, my question is this.
What is the best way to take only small portions of each file without having to load everything into final cut and without any loose of quality. Should I just trim and rename from Quicktime or is there an easier way?
Reason this needs to be done this way is the smaller segments will each be sent to other editors and rather then send huge files we want to split it to smaller amounts for each editor to use.
Thank you so much for any input regarding this, I look forward to what you have to say

Open the clip into the viewer. Mark In and Out points on the section you want. Make it a subclip Cmd-U. Drag the subclip into the bin for the editor who needs it. Repeat.
If you batch export from a clip there is a selection to choose whether to export the whole clip or check box to export the marked I/O.
This does not sound like a good project on which to being learning FCP.

What is the best way to handle very large images in Captivate?

I am just not sure the best way to handle very large electrical drawings.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Tricia

Is converting the colorspace asking for trouble? Very possibly! If you were to do that to a PDF that was going to be used in the print industry, they'd shoot you! On the other hand, if the PDF was going online or on a mobile device – they might not care. And if the PDF complies with one of the ISO subset standards, such as PDF/X or PDF/A, then you have other rules in play. In general, such things are a user preference/setting/choice.
On the larger question – there are MANY MANY ways to approach PDF optimization. Compression of image data is just one of them. And then within that single category, as you can see, there are various approaches to the problem. If you extend your investigation to other tools such as PDF Enhancer, you'd see even other ways to do this as well.
As with the first comment, there is no "always right" answer. It's entirely dependent on the user's use case for the PDF, requirements of additional standard, and the user's needs.

(workflow question) - What is the best way to handle audio in a large Premiere project?

Hey all,
This might probably be suitable for any version of Premiere, but just in case, I use CS4 (Master Collection)
I am wrestling in my brain about the best way to handle audio in my project to cut down on the time I am working on it.
This project I just finished was a 10 minute video for a customer shot on miniDV (HVX-200) cut down from 3 hours of tape.
I edited my whole project down to what looked good, and then I decided I needed to clean up all the Audio using Soundbooth, So I had to go in clip by clip, using the Edit in SoundBooth --> Render and Replace method on every clip. I couldn't find a way to batch edit any audio in Soundbooth.
For every clip, I performed similar actions---
1) both tracks of audio were recorded with 2 different microphones (2 mono tracks), so I needed only audio from 1 track - I used SB to cut and paste the good track over the other track.
2) amplified the audio
3) cleaned up the background noise with the noise filter
I am sure there has to be a better workflow option than what I just did (going clip by clip), Can someone give me some advice on how best to handle audio in a situation like this?
Should I have just rendered out new audio for the whole tape I was using, and then edit from that?
Should I have rendered out the audio after I edited the clips into one long track and performed the actions I needed on it? or something entirely different? It was a very slow, tedious process.
Thanks,
Aza

Hi, Aza.
Given that my background is audio and I'm just coming into the brave new world of visual bits and bytes, I would second Hunt's recommendation regarding exporting the entire video's audio as one wav file, working on it, and then reimporting. I do this as one of the last stages, when I know I have the editing done, with an ear towards consistency from beginning to end.
One of the benefits of this approach is that you can manage all audio in the same context. For example, if you want to normalize, compress or limit your audio, doing it a clip at a time will make it difficult for you to match levels consistently or find a compression setting that works smoothly across the board. It's likely that there will instead be subtle or obvious differences between each clip you worked on.
When all your audio is in one file you can, for instance, look at the entire wave form, see that limiting to -6 db would trim off most of the unnecessary peaks, triim it down, and then normalize it all. You may still have to do some tweaking here and there, but it gets you much farther down the road, much more easily.Same goes for reverb, EQ or other effects where you want the same feel throughout the entire video.
Hope this helps,
Chris

Best way to handle mobile accounts with large itunes/photo libraries

What is the best way to handle mobile accounts, but not syncing itunes/photos libraries?
I have a time capsule so I can move itunes and photos libraries for each user if need be.
Thanks!

Hi,
I've done a great deal of work with mobile accounts in Snow Leopard and I'm now having a "play" with Lion. To be honest you have to sit down and think about why you need mobile accounts.
If your user only uses one computer then your safer having a local account backed up by a network Time Machine, this avoids the many many woes that the Servers FileSyncAgent brings to the table.
If your users are going to be accessing multiple computers on the network and leaving the network then a mobile account is good for providing a uniform user experience and access to files etc. However, your users will have to make a choice as to whether they want their iPhoto libraries on one Local machine (backed up by Time Machine) or whether they want their library to be hosted on the server and not part of the Mobile Home Sync schedule (adding ~/Pictures to the excluded items on the home sync settings).
With the latter, users will be able to access their iPhoto libraries on any computer when they are within the network (as it's accessed from the users server home folder).
With the first option the user would have their iPhoto library on one computer (say the laptop they used the most) but then would not be able to access it from other computers they log on to.
iPhoto libraries are a pain, and I'm working hard to come up with a workaround. If your users moved over to using Apeture then you could include the aperture library as part of the home sync thanks to Deeport (http://deepport.net/archives/os-x-portable-home-directories-and-syncing-flaw-wit h-bundles/)
He does suggest that the same would work with IPhoto libraries - but it doesn't for a number of mysterious reasons regarding how the OS recognizes thie iPhoto bundle (it does so differently compared to Apeture).
Hope this helps...

Best way to handle multiple currencies

I have a requirement that users should be able to report against an OLAP cube in a currency of their choice (from a list of about 20) and was wondering what the best way to handle this might be.
One option would be to have a currency dimension containing the list of valid currencies and then to pre-calculate measures in each of the currencies and store them in the cube. However the downside of this is that the resultant cube would be 20 times larger than a cube in a single currency, take longer to maintain etc. I could of course partition the cube by currency to improve reporting performance since users would only report in one currency at a time.
Another alternative would be to dynamically calculate the measures based on exchange rates - I guess this could either be done in the cube itself or as part of the reporting code. However since exchange rates are daily, this would obvioulsy prevent me from aggregating data up the time dimension (all measures are at the day level).
Is there any standard way of doing this and what are the pro's and con's?
Thanks,
Chris

Sorry - messed up - I should have posted this in the OLAP forum.....

Best way to handle duplicate headings stemming from linked TOC book?

What's the best way to handle duplicate topic titles stemming from TOC books that contain links to a topic that you want to have appear in the body? The problem I've had for years now is that the TOC generates one heading, and the topic itself generates one heading.This results in duplicate headings in the printed output.
I have a large ~2500 topic project I have to print every release, and to date we've been handling it in post-build word macros, but it's not 100% effective, so we're looking to fix this issue on the source side of the fence. On some of our smaller projects, we've actually marked with the heading in the topic itself with the Online CBT and that seems to work. We're thinking of doing the same to our huge project unless there's a better way of handling this. Any suggestions?

See the tip immediately above this link. http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/printing/rh9_printing.htm#wizard_page3
The alternative is to remove the topic from the print layout so that it only generates by virtue of its link to the book.

Ways to handle large volume data (file size = 60MB) in PI 7.0 file to file

Hi,
In a file to file scenario (flat file to xml file), the flat file is getting picked up by FCC and then send to XI. In xi its performing message mapping and then XSL transformation in a sequence.
The scenario is working fine for small files (size upto 5MB) but when the input flat file size is more then 60 MB, then XI is showing lots of problem like (1) JCo call error or (2) some times even XI is stoped and we have to strat it manually again to function properly.
Please suggest some way to handle large volume (file size upto 60MB) in PI 7.0 file to file scenario.
Best Regards,
Madan Agrawal.

Hi Madan,
If every record of your source file was processed in a target system, maybe you could split your source file into several messages by setting up this in Recordset Per Messages parameter.
However, you just want to convert you .txt file into a .xml file. So, try firstly to setting up
EO_MSG_SIZE_LIMIT parameter in SXMB_ADM.
However this could solve the problem in Inegration Engine, but the problem will persit in Adapter Engine, I mean, JCo call error ...
Take into account that file is first proccessed in Adapter Engine, File Content Conversion and so on...
and then it is sent to the pipeline in Integration Engine.

Best way to handle medical collections?

Hello all, My husband and I are new to the "rebuilding your credit" world. We're coming back from a foreclosure and actively trying to rebuild. I have 4 active collections for 3 creditors listed on my EQ/TU report - totally $399. I can pay them in full right now but I don't want to call the creditors to pay them if its not going to be removed from my reports properly. Some of these are old - 2011. I also have 3 collections "removed" from my TU/EQ report since March - will paying these affect what is listed on my reports?
What is the best way to handle these accounts to ensure they are removed from my reports completely?

Contact each creditor and politely request a Pay for Deletion - agreement they will delete from your reports in exchange for full payment. Get this in writing. If that doesn't work (try a few times), pay it, then try the goodwill route -- write letters requesting early deletion of the entries from your reports. Even though negative items will fall off your report in 7 years (so the 2011 collection will fall off in 2018), you will still have to report that you have unpaid debt on future mortgage applications, etc. And on a manual review, paid collections look better than unpaid ones. I would not advise not paying them at all.

Best way to handle time taking MIS queries!

Dear all,
Recently we have developed some MIS reports that execute large queries and process lot of data. These queries almost held the database and user's experience very slow speed.
What is the best way to handle these heavy duty queries?
Like having another server for MIS and then what is the best way to synchronize data on daily basis?
OR
Creating procedures that execute at night and populate MIS tables and reports using this formulated data?
Any other better solution please?
Thanks, Imran

Best way to handle scrolling on iphone?

What's the best way to handle scrolling? The ios has a specific style of scrolling, click and drag, with a sort of elastic effect at the limits. What's the best way to appraoch this? Create a script that mimics this same behavior?
In a related question, I have a list of buttons, which will scroll. I want to click the buttons, but I also want to drag the list. How best to handle this. If I have an event waiting for a click or a mouseup on the button, if I execute a drag I don't want to activate a button at the end of a drag.

To answer your first question, I use the iPhoneScroll class by Shine Draw. Its not 100% identical to the actual iPhone scroller but comes pretty damn close and works quite nicely on the iPhone4.
To achieve what you described in your second question, you would have to edit the class for this, it does not support interactive content.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
