Can I edit the system file Manifest.XML in Word for Windows? (there's a reason for doing this)

I renamed a file directory containing several PDFs. Consequently, Adobe Digital Editions says these files are missing when I try to open them and look at notes I made. There seems to be an obvious solution, but I'm unfamiliar with XML and don't want to screw things up. The file locations and a lot of other information for Digital Editions is in an XML file called Manifest. If I can edit the XML file to show the correct directory, I expect I'd be able to see these files and recover my notes. I'm unsure what Word for Windows may do (e.g., add or delete characters) when I edit and save the new Manifest.  That might corrupt the Manifest and be extremely counterproductive.
Is editing the file locations in Word for Windows safe, so long as Digital Editions isn't open when I do my editing? 

I can confirm that Notepad++ can happily edit manifest.xml files, but as Jim_Lester says, make a backup (especially if you are not used to XML).
You may well find that if you Open the .epub files from their new location explicitly from ADE (ctrl-O) that you will both be able to read documents and see the notes.
I can't vouch for that; but if it works I'd recommend it over editing the manifest file.

  • I can´t edit the text files with SAP BODS 3.2

    Hello
    I can not edit some text files 9-20 megabytes to replace two words in each file, the source is a text file and the same destination but with different name, because with the same name have been unable . My idea is to remove the original and stay with the new performing edition but that if he does , let me file this way:
    SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml ( ORIGINAL )
    should leave it with me so : SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml _OLD (AMENDED )
    but strangely leaves me so :
    MICROSOFT_SQL_SERVER_KCC-BI_REPO_KHSA_XI_REPO_KHSA_XI_1543_5434_2_3_Long_INVOICES_INCREMENTAL_20140225_034004_001_xml_dat.txt  (not deseased)
    The type of data you use is long since varchar not allow me because it cuts my data file , use varchar (50000000) but takes the information and short .
    I am using long data type , modify the file and I pass the name of the text files of sap bods for global variables. They are a series of files that are called by a while loop
    Thanks for your answers
    regards

    HIr
    Yes, first I convert long_to_varchar for edit, and convert varchar_to_long.
    I edit before before and later
    Thanks

  • Can I edit the rpt file & change the datasource before loading the report?

    We are an ISV and our application has a lot of reports.  Our reports use a SQL Server database as the data source and each SQL Server at our customer sites has a different name.
    In our testing we have determined that ReportDocument.Load tries to connect to the SQL Server that is saved in the RPT.  If it can't fine the SQL Server saved in the RPT the load take about 60 seconds while it is waiting for the SQL Server Connection to time out.
    We are using the Visual Studio 2008 version of Crystal Reports.  This did not seem to be a problem with VB6/CR8.5.
    We would like to edit the RPT and change the data source to the appropriate SQL Server before we call ReportDocument.Load.
    Is it possible to edit the rpt file and change the data source before loading the report?
    Or is there some way to tell Crystal not to try connecting to the DB
    during the report.load?
    In our case we will NEVER use the data source that is saved in the RPT, we will always change the data source using ApplyLogOnInfo.
    Thanks

    HI Todd,
    You Can Not edit the report document before ReportDocument.Load() because if you dont load the report then you dont have anything to Edit
    But as far as changing the datasource is concerned you can change that at runtime.
    For changing the datasource following code will help you if both databases have a same schema :
    Code for changing the database
    ConnectionInfo crConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
    crConnectionInfo.ServerName = "SERVER";
    crConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = "DATABASE";
    crConnectionInfo.UserID = "USERID";
    crConnectionInfo.Password = "PASSWORD";
    // Loop through the ReportObjects in a report and find all the subreports
    foreach(ReportObject crReportObject in crReportDocument.ReportDefinition.ReportObjects)
         // Check the kind of the ReportObject, if it is a subreport
         // proceed. If not skip.
         if(crReportObject.Kind == ReportObjectKind.SubreportObject)
              // Get the SubReport in the form of a ReportDocument
              string sSubreportName = ((SubreportObject)crReportObject).SubreportName;
              ReportDocument crSubReportDocument = crReportDocument.OpenSubreport(sSubreportName);
              // Use a loop to go through all the tables in the main report
              foreach(Table crTable in crSubReportDocument.Database.Tables)
    // Get the TableLogOnInfo from the Table and then set the new
    // ConnectionInfo values.
    TableLogOnInfo crLogOnInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo;
    crLogOnInfo.ConnectionInfo = crConnectionInfo;
    // Apply the TableLogOnInfo
    crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crLogOnInfo);
    // Set the location of the database. This value will vary from database to
    // database.
    crTable.Location = "DATABASE.OWNER.TABLENAME" or crTable.Locations;
    The sample for doing this is available on support site.
    Thanks,
    Prasad

  • Can we edit the System Report queries to add some missing fields ?

    Hello,
    I'm using SAP Business One 2005 A and I was wondering if there was a way to edit the system report queries.  Sometime, I'm only missing calculated fields in the existing report.  Something as easy as the difference between 2 dates is not working with the formula fields.
    Instead of rewriting everything, could we simply see that original query and edit it to add the missing fields ?
    I don't like the fact I can't add my own created report from a query in the main menu.  Since I couldn't do anything with the Backorder reports by default, I created mine with my own SQL query.  Can't I replace the existing one with my own ?
    Thank you
    Daniel Gagnon

    Hi Daniel,
    You can edit a system query but then you can only save it as a user query (ie you cannot overwrite the system queries).
    User queries can't be placed in the Main Menu using the standard GUI though you could add them to the User Menu tab so your users can get to them easily. I think to add them to the Main Menu would require the development of an add-on that updated the Main Menu and triggered the running of the query when the user clicked on the menu option.
    The other thing to look at is using XL Reporter for your reports rather than the Query Generator. With XL Reporter you can automatically add reports to the main menu.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • How can I edit the rules file?

    How can I develop my program which can access rules file?I know that Hyperion didn't provide APIs to set properties of rules files.

    There is not way to edit the contents of a rules file (short of trying to reverse-engineer the file format for a load rule and write the file out yourself).What is it you are trying to do? While it would be nice to be able to use an API to create a rules file, most of the the things you use a load rule for do not require the ability to change them programatically.Regards,Jade----------------------------------Jade ColeSenior Business Intelligence ConsultantClarity [email protected]

  • Can we edit the output file of Crystal?

    Hi,
    We need to create a crystal report but the user wants to have some fields in the output .rpt file to be editable. Can we really do it? if yes, how to do it?
    Thanks!

    Girish,
    Thanks for your reply! We are not going to edit the field name. We are looking to edit the field value. For example, in the output file, we have 100 different trading records and each of them will have different commission. The users hope they can edit the value of the commission for each record. I have tried with Crystal and it seems that I can edit the field but all records will have same value for the column. Do you know if we can edit the value of commission for each record?
    Thanks!

  • Can't defrag the "systems" files

      When I try to run the disk defragmentor disks C and D defrag ok but "systems" says 6 % needs to be defraged but when I high lite the "systems"  and click on analize disk for a mil a second I see " pass 1 -  14 % than it goes away. I've retried many times to defrag and gave it hours to do it but systems won't defrag. I recently had the HTML Frammer virus but used malwarebites the virus remover and everything seems normal except the defragging.  Can anyone help me on this issue ?

  • Can you edit the HOSTS file on an iphone?

    Is there a way to edit the iPhone equivalent of an /etc/hosts file?  This is necessary to access some internal test/dev resources on our network.  Jailbreaking is NOT an option.  Creating and installing configuration profiles via the iPhone Configuration Utility would be allowable.

    Why? There's no way they are going to pay a licensing fee for something like that.

  • I can't open the RAW files from my new Nikon D610 in PSE10. Any help for this?

    I recently purchased a Nikon D610.  I have PSE 10.  I can't open my RAW files now and I always shoot in RAW.  I've tried everything, but still can't open m,y files in the RAW format.  Any help??????

    Your most direct choices are:
    1)      Use the free Adobe DNG Converter 8.3 to create Adobe-DNG raws from your Nikon D610 NEF raws.  These DNGs will open in your older Elements Camera Raw plug-in.  Be sure to set the ACR compatibly options in the DNGC to support whatever version of ACR you’re using.
    2)      Buy PSE12, and first download the trial version to make sure your computer can run it properly.
    Adobe only adds new camera support to whatever the current versions of their software, and PSE12 was the current version of Elements when the D610 support was added.   PSE10 won’t be updated.
    Also be sure that you are NOT using the old Nikon Transfer or ViewNX with your new Nikon camera.  These older versions of Nikon products change something in the metadata of new camera NEFs that makes them unrecognizable to Adobe software.

  • I am unable to open another Firefox4 window when I have the Error Console open and I can't open the Error Console when I have two Firefox4 windows open. Is anyone else having this problem?

    I personally haven't experienced much of the "reverberation/feedback" when using a headset on the i4S...
    Yes, I have near-perfect hearing too (for scope, squeaky brakes hurt my ears) I come from many conversations on many phones and types and first off, CDMA technology is great for coverage, terrible for voice quality. HD Voice in Europe made for some of the best phone conversations I've ever had.
    Back on track, feedback is most noticable (similar to the landline phone) when using the iPhone without a headset, but for me it's not an absolute criticality mainly because I use VoIP apps alot, so maybe it has desensitized me some over the past year.
    But whenever I'm on a call, and the other person has me on speakerphone, I have alot of trouble talking because of the feedback loop caused. So the less of my voice I hear the better I can talk.
    Have you tried a bluetooth headset yet?

  • Running out of internal storage space! Want to make room by deleting photos WITHOUT LOSING MY PHOTOS! Can I delete the Camera Roll yet still keep my photos in Photo Stream?? Will doing this free up ios storage? Does Photo Stream auto delete ever?

    Hello, I am out of internal storage on my Iphone 4 ALREADY (Just purchased 3 months ago!). I need to clear up some space so I can do updates and take new photos. I was thinking about backing up my Photo Stream to the icloud and then deleting my Camera Roll.
    1.) Is this a terrible idea??? I do NOT want to lose those photos! But I NEED more space on my phone!
    2.) Will deleting Camera Roll free up space (a sufficient amount? My Camera Roll is at 4.5 GB)?
    3.) Will deleting Camera Roll delete my photos from Photo Stream also? It doesn't seem to.
    4.)  Does Photo Stream ever automatically delete photos???
    5.)  Is there anyway I can save the pictures from my phone to my computer??? I can see the photos on my computer when viewing them through Photo Stream, but those are not permanent, correct?
    This is one of the most ridiculous, confusing and unnessacary things I've ever known! Why oh why can't we just have a good ol' SD Card??? (My Droid never ever ran out of storage and I had it for 2 years...)
    I tried backing up my photos in Itunes, but I don't have a new enough version. I tried downloading a new itunes and it still tells me I don't have the new version.
    I have been working on this for 4 hours, its 2:30 am and I am going to bed. I am sorry I had to ask, but I've been searching and searching and just cannot find the answers. Thank you so much for your help!
    6.) Also, I haven't been able to find the videos using the Icloud or the Photo Stream either...
    7.) Do you have to have your device (pc) synced with icloud to access the info you backed up from iphone?? Like can I show my cousin my photos at her house using her computer by just loggin on??? Or can I only view my contacts, calender, mail, notifications, and such?
    8.) Where on the icloud would one find text messages or other saved info??
    Thank you so very much for helping me!!!

    What I would say is best is to import the videos and photos to your computer so that you can delete camera roll photos with a copy of them in your possession:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083
    In regards to backing up Photo Stream
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486:
    Does Photo Stream use my iCloud storage?
    "No. Photos uploaded to My Photo Stream or Shared Photo Streams do not count against your iCloud storage."
    However, you can do the tedious task of moving your camera roll pictures to photo stream by ensuring photo stream is turned on for your device and take a screen shot of each picture in your camera roll to move it over.
    To take a screen shot, just press the "Home Button" and the "Sleep/Wake Button" at the same time while viewing the image.
    1.)  It's not a terrible idea, it can be tedious though.
    2.)  Deleting a bunch of photos/videos from a camera roll 4.5GB in size can definitely free up space
    3.)  Photo Stream photos, as you said, appear to stay upon deleting the photos.  (Tested it personally)
    4.)  Photo Stream has a limit according to:  (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4858)
              Essentially, it won't erase your photos until you tell it to.
    5.)  http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4083  (As shown above)
    6.)  To update iTunes, you must download and then "Run" the download you get off the website.  Otherwise you will just have an installer program sitting there not updating iTunes.
    7.)  You can bring up your Photo Stream pictures anywhere you have Photo Stream capabilities.  For a computer at someone else's house, they would have to have the iCloud control panel (http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1455) on their computer and be signed into their Photo Stream and viewing your profile's pictures (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4379)
    8.)  On iCloud, you can backup your text messages, but you cannot view them independently on www.icloud.com.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4859
    "You get 5 GB of free iCloud storage for:
    Photos and videos in the Camera Roll
    Device settings (for example: Phone Favorites, Wallpaper, and Mail, Contacts, Calendar accounts)
    App data
    Home screen and app organization
    Messages (iMessage, SMS, and MMS)
    Ringtones
    Visual Voicemails"
    Hope some of this information helps!

  • How can I edit an html file in Firefox using View Source?

    I have created an html webpage and saved it to my pc. I can't edit the html file in firefox when I right click on the page and select "View Source". I can view the code but I can't edit it. I can do this in IE9.
    I thought I was able to do this before in Firefox.
    Did my settings change somewhere that I can no longer do this?
    Do I have to have something checked in the Web Developer extensions for it to work?
    I'm using Firefox 24.0
    Thank you for any help with this. :)

    The View Source window in Firefox cannot be used to change computer codes. Nor can the Web Developer tools.
    Sorry for any inconvenience.
    I suggest using Programmer's Notepad.

  • How can i insert the text file in a hashSet???

    Hi, here's the code to feed the text file into the program, i need to put the words from the text file into a hashSet, im not too sure how to go about doing this, can anyone help please?
    import java.io.*;
    public class FileIn {
    BufferedReader in;
    public FileIn() {
    try {
    in = new BufferedReader(new FileReader("\\C:\\Program Files\\java.txt\\"));
    String line = in.readLine();
    System.out.println(line);
    in.close();
    } catch(IOException ioe) {
    System.out.println(ioe.toString());
    public static void main(String args[]) {
    FileIn newFile = new FileIn();
    }

    First you need to break each line into words. You'll need to decide on your rules for doing that. A simple approach would be to just break on whitespace. This assumes there are no hyphenated words at the end of a line. You'll also want to strip out punctuation.
    Once you've got a word (or an array of them, if you used String.split), then just iterate over it and call HashSet.add for each one. There might even be a helper function in java.util.Arrays or java.util.Collections or in HashSet to add everything from an array.
