Can I append date to the file name using Bursting

Hi All,
I know that we can append date to the file using %y, %m and %d for
Email
FTP
WEBDAV
But is there any way of appending the date to the file name if I am bursting my file to a shared location.
I tried that %y, %m and %d but that doesn't work for bursting.
Please reply
Thanks,
Ronny

How to not append '.PART' to the file name of the currently downloading file, and just download the file with its normal filename

In Windows, when Firefox (I'm currently using 7.0) downloads a file, it appends ''.PART'' to the file name of the currently downloading file and just renames it to its original file name after it finishes downloading.
I sometimes like to watch a currently downloading video file, so it will be better if Firefox just downloads the file to its actual filename (like what Opera does), so I can easily double click the incompletely downloaded file and watch it with the video player assigned to that file extension, rather than the awkward ''Right click -> Open With -> Choose Default Program'' route with .part files.
Does anyone know how to set Firefox to do this?

It is possible that your anti-virus software is corrupting the downloaded files or otherwise interfering with downloading files by Firefox and prevents Firefox from renaming the .part file.
Try to disable the real-time (live) scanning of files in your anti-virus software temporarily to see if that makes downloading work.
See "Disable virus scanning in Firefox preferences - Windows"

How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

hi all,
how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
Regards

Found the solution for this.
First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.
Thanks for the posts

Append Today Date to the Attachement Name using SQL reporting services

I have a report on SQL reporting services, I have scheduled this report to be sent automatically by mail using Subscriptions but the client needs to append today date to the report name attached, currently the attachment is taking the report name as it is.
EX: CollectExport.txt but what I need is to have CollectExport_21-07-2010.txt .
Please advise.
Thanks.

As I understand it, the purpose of the program is to route a report file that contains the name of the report with the current date appended to the end. So, have you tried to use the ReportViewer control and extrude the report as a PDF stream (which you
can name)?

Append date to exporting file name in SQL reporting service

When exporting a report to another format, say excel,PDF; the file name is always set to the report name. Our client has a requirement where whenever a user exports a report to pdf, the timestamp of when the data of the report was made should be appended in the filename. Is there a way to do this in Reporting Services as well as report builder?
example : Report name : Testreport
Exported file should be : Testreport-November-22-20076.pdf
please help me in this
Thanks

Hi,
I know it's been while since this question was posted. I am replying so that it'll be useful for other people when they come across this same situation.
If you have access to SQL Server Agent to create jobs then this idea will be helpful -
1. Connect to your Report Server from SSMS.
2. Note the ItemID for your report by executing this query
select *
from ReportServer..Catalog
where Path like '%NameofyourReport%'
3. Create a job in here with the name say "AppendDatetoxyzreport" and add a step in it with the code
UPDATE [Catalog]
SET [Path] = '/PathofyourrerportfromReportServer/ReportName_' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112),
[Name] = '/ReportName_' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(8), GETDATE(), 112)
WHERE ItemID ='<ItemID>'
4. Create another job with a name like "RemoveDatexyzreport" and add a step in it with the code
UPDATE [Catalog]
SET [Path] = 'PathofyoureportinReportserver/ReportName',
[Name] = 'ReportName''
WHERE ItemID = '<ItemID>'
5. Now set your AppendDatetoxyzreport job schedule to execute first, then the Report's subscription and then the RemoveDatexyzreport.
By doing this the first job changes the name to include present date, then you get you report and the next job sets it back to its previous name.

How to use javascript to "save as" using form data in the file name

I want to be able to use a button to "save as" and have it automatically pick up and use certain data from the fields in the file name. without having to manually type in the file name.
Name: john doe
Date: 1-25-13
file name would be (john doe 1-25-13)

You will need two parts for this. A folder level script (which you place in a .js file under the JavaScripts folder of Acrobat), and a script embedded in the file itself (probably attached to a button).
The folder-level script will look like this:
var mySaveAs = app.trustedFunction( function(oDoc,cPath) {
    app.beginPriv();
    try {
        oDoc.saveAs(cPath);
    } catch(e){
        app.alert("Error During Save");
    app.endPriv();
The doc-level script can look something like this (of course, you might need to adjust the names of the fields used):
var filePath = this.path.replace(this.documentFileName, "");
var newFileName = this.getField("name").valueAsString + " " + this.getField("date").valueAsString + ".pdf";
mySaveAs(this, filePath+newFileName);
You should be aware that several characters are not allowed in the file name, including comma's, forward- and back-slashes, line-breaks and excalmation marks, so if you try to use them the script would fail. It is possible to create a more advanced version of this script that will automatically remove such characters from the file-name, or alert the user if they used them.

Append data into the file in application server

Hi Friends,
I have an issue where i have a job which has three different stepst for same program. If i run the job the program will create a file in the application server and append the other two steps in the same file without overwriting the file or creating a new file.
My problem is like its creating three different files in application server for that particular job since it has three steps . Its not appending into one particular file .
I am using the FM 'Z_INTERFACE_FILE_WRITE' where i have used the pi_append in the exportng parameter . ITs working when i specify the file in local system. It is appending correctly when i run the report normally to apppend into local system.
But when i schedule a job to append the file in application server its creating three different files.
Kindly help me if anyone is aware of this issue
Thanks in advance
Kishore

Hi,
Please use open dataset to write and append files.Please check the logic of Z FM which you are using .
To open and write into a file use
OPEN DATASET FNAME FOR OUTPUT.
To append data into existing file use
OPEN DATASET FNAME FOR APPENDING.
To write into file:
v_file = file path on application server
OPEN DATASET v_file FOR output.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
write:/ 'error opening file'.
ELSE.
TRANSFER data TO v_file.
ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET v_file.
For appending :
OPEN DATASET v_file fOR APPENDING.(file is opened for appending data position is set to the end of the file).
Thanks and Regards,
P.Bharadwaj

Want To Capture The File name Using the SQL Loader

Hi,
I Am loading The Data To Staging Table Using The SQL*developer, The File That need to be Loaded Will be One Of The Input To the SQL*Loader Concurrent Program.
In One Of The Column Of My staging Table I want To Put The File name.
Can We do the Same.
thanks,
Ankit

Not unless you generate the loader controlfile dynamically.. try this.. pass file name as $1 first parameter. Use the below example and modify as per your requirement
1) create table with following table structure
create table temp_table (x varchar2(20),file_name varchar2(30));
2) create data file - test.dat (contains only values for x)
abc
def
geh
ggg
fff
3) create a host file host file - test.sh with following content:
echo "load data
infile $1
append
into table temp_table
fields terminated by ','
(x,
file_name constant "$1")" > test.ctl
sqlldr <usr>/<pwd>control=test.ctl
4) run the host file from unix prompt with data file name as parameter (ensure test.sh has execute permissions)
test.sh test.dat
Hope this helps

HT1751 After "Restoring iTunes Library Backup" it wont link to the files in the iTunes folder. I've followed the correct procedure, and iTunes lists all my music correctly (but with no artwork), but can't locate any of the files. Using Windows 7. Help ple

After "Restoring iTunes Library backup" it wont link to the files in the iTunes folder. I've followed the procedure as described, and the iTunes folder is in the correct location. iTunes lists all my music correctly (albeit with no artwork), but can't locate any of the files.
I've been restoring my iTunes folder from a backup hard drive to a new computer on which I've downloaded the latest iTunes (10.7). If this is a newer version than the one I backed up with could this be the problem? (I had the latest (to my knowledge) iTunes when I backed up the folder about 3 weeks ago, was this version 10.7?)
Or is the version of iTunes (within recent updates) not an issue when restoring a library?
Using Windows 7.
Any help please?

From the top of the page where the scripts live...
The general method of use is to download the script to a folder of your choice, e.g. your Desktop, Downloads folder or create a folder at ...\iTunes\Scripts. Select a playlist or highlight some tracks in iTunes and then double-click on the script to execute it. If no specific tracks are selected the script will try to work with all tracks in the current playlist. Some scripts offer a choice of track by track confirmation of changes or fully automatic processing of the selection. Many of the scripts can optionally display a progress bar while running.
You are strongly advised to backup your entire library, or at the very least the iTunes Library.itl file, before use. Test the behaviour of your chosen script on a small group of files first to make sure it does what you want before applying it to large numbers of files.
Most builds of Windows will execute *.vbs scripts when you double-click them. If that doesn't happen then you might need to visit the Add/Remove Programs or Programs & Features control panel to enable the Windows Scripting Host. I can track down details if you have issues.
Backing up and restoring data is an area that is often glossed over. Most people don't try to learn much about it until they've lost something important. (Me too )
If your iTunes library was in the usual layout then normally copying the whole iTunes folder from the User's Music folder in the old computer to the User's Music folder in the new one will usually work fine. Ideally this is done before iTunes is installed so that there is no empty library to replace, and all settings are picked up from the old library. This post contains more details.

Getting the file name using ehdr:getRequestHeader function in style sheet

Hi, I am facing an issue while using ehdr:getRequestHeader function to get the name of the file, which was placed in FTPS server and read by FTP Adapter. In style sheet I am trying to get the file name as below.

When I use the same function getRequestHeader for FileAdapter, it is working fine. Do anyone know why this issue occurs? Is this an issue with environment?

As far as I can see the problem is the invoke of the SOAP service. This could be because of an empty filename but maybe there are other issues. First, make sure that the filename is read correctly by looking it up in the BPEL runtime process. Maybe the content is different than you expected it so that the read action for the properties give wrong result. Are you sure that ehdr is the correct prefix for the ftpheader?

If you will use Grpahical Mesage Mapping then this can be achieved using Adapter-Specific Attribute u201CFileNameu201D
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/03612cdecc6e76e10000000a422035/content.htm
Code Snippet -->
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create(
u201Chttp://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Fileu201D,
u201CFileNameu201D);
But in case you have to ONLY use XSLT mapping then I would suggest to use the same jave code & call it from your XSLT mapping. I never tried such thing you might use couple of jar files too.

Problems getting just the file name using an upload component

Hi everyone, I'm using an upload component on my page and I need to get just the name of the image/file in order to store it in a database, I used the code of the tutorial and It works fine on mozilla but the problem comes when I use Internet Explorer because I get the whole path of the image/file and not just the name of it. I believe the browser is the cause of the problem, I already checked the http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/fileupload/, but I don't understand how to use anything, and not even the code of the tutorial works eventhough it is specified in comments:
// some browsers return complete path name, some don't
   // make sure we only have the file name
   String justFileName = uploadedFileName.substring
      ( uploadedFileName.lastIndexOf(File.separatorChar) + 1 );If anybody could helpme solve this problem I'd appreciate it so much
Regards

Let's walk through the code...
File.separatorChar is the system-dependent default hame-separator charac tor. This field is initialized to contain the first character of the system property file.separator. On UNIX systems, the value of this field is '/'; on Microsoft Windows systems it is '\\'.
String justFileName =
// get the substring of uploadedFileName
// that starts after the last separator (\ or /)
uploadedFileName.substring
uploadedFileName.lastIndexOf(File.separatorChar) + 1
You say that this statement is returning the complete path name, for example:
C:\Documents and Settings\All
Users\Documentos\Mis im��genes\Im��genes de
muestra\Puesta de sol.jpgSo, we can make an assumption that the File.separatorChar must not be \, or else the statement would return Puesta de sol.jpg.
We know that it works for you on Solaris/Mozilla.
We also know that Misha has tested the statement in IE and it works for him.
(And I know that this tutorial was tested by a software engineer and a quality engineer, and it worked for both of them, as well as the tutorial author and a peer).
So, what is different here??????
Can you print out File.separatorChar and see if it is '\\' (I think the first \ is an escape char, that is \\ (escape-escape) is the equivalent of \ (backslash)) or '\'?
When you run it on another machine, how are you deploying it on the other machine? Is it deployed to Solaris and running on Windows?
Have you tested to see if it works on a Windows machine using Mozilla?
Thanks in advance for any light you can shed on the problem.

Can I append date to the file name using Bursting
