Can I use a script to update a graph.

We have several charts(graphs) within an InDesign document. We update the graph manually using a tab delimited text file. Is there a way to script this? I've scripted the InDesign document to update the links and verify the age of links but I've had quite a time to understand objects within Illustrator. I tried actions but the actions ignore graph items in my trial. I've even tried VB.NET but I don't understand what the data source for the graph is.
Thank you for any help.

To my knowledge to only way in which you can change an Illustrator graphs data is to use datasets. You can import new data then update. You will need to work with XML thou… Have you not taken a look at marc's pie-chart script…

Hi Kranthi,
You have option to read a cell content as html. else you will have to go for SDK. I think you will get better suggestions, if you can explain your requirement in a little detailed manner.

You can't. Apps and really all content purchased/downloaded through one Apple ID is forever tied to that Apple ID. In the case of Apps they will always request that Apple ID to update as they are licensed to that Apple ID.
In reality, the Apps were licensed to that Apple ID by the developer. And cannot simply be given away to you for you to use.
He should have wiped the iPod clean so you could set it up for your use without any of his accounts or purchased content as you are not really licensed to any of those Apps.
Your friend should have followed this support document before giving the iPod to you:

Can I use a select and update statement in a single jsp file?

I want to update the BUY table everytime I would add a SELL transaction.....I want to minus the stocks that I sold to those that Ive bought before.....
note: I used a seperate table in BUY and SELL transaction
After I Have added a transaction, I want to update the buy table. This is my problem, can I used both SELECT and UPDATE statement at the same time in a single jsp file for example like this:
select * from test, test1;
update test
set total_shares=total_shares-Stotal;
where stock_code=Scode AND name_broker=Sbroker;
Can i have both of these statements in the same jsp file in oder to update the buy table?
Or can anyone suggest how can process that update?THANKS!
--------------------

Can i have both of these statements in the same jsp file in oder to update the buy table?Yes. But wouldn't it have been easier just to try it?

Can I use Apple Script to press a button?

Is there some way I can create an Apple Script to run and press a button in another application, or create a "plug-in" type script for the program to make the button into a something that can be used by a keyboard shortcut?
I ask because I have an application that I can use to operate my digital camera, however, the button that Auto-Focuses then Shoots a photo does not have a keyboard shortcut. This is a problem because I also have the App "Snatch" on my iPhone, and, long story, short, I discovered I could use Snatch on my laptop on an Ad-Hoc network from about 1,000 feet away, maybe more. If I could find a way of making the "AF and Shoot" button into a keyboard shortcut, or create a script that could be triggered by a keyboard shortcut to press the button, I could use Snatch to control my camera remotely, far better then any part I would by from Nikon, or a third-party (Trust me, I have used a lot of them, and this method beats them all, save for the fact that I can't use bulb.)
Anyway, thanks for any input, if any.

Even if an application is not scriptable, you can generally use [GUI Scripting|http://www.macosxautomation.com/applescript/uiscripting/index.html] to press a button. For example, using Canon's RemoteCapture DC software, the script below will press the "Release" button of the main window:
tell application "RemoteCapture DC" to activate
tell application "System Events"
tell process "RemoteCapture DC"
click button 4 of window "RemoteCapture DC"
end tell
end tell
If you then put the above script in the AppleScript menu in the menu bar, you should be able to use a third party application, like Quicksilver, to assign a keyboard shortcut to it.

Can we use where clause in Update on Merge statement?

Hi All,
I tried to execute the following Merge Query:
When this query is executed without ‘Where clause’ in Update statement its working fine. When executed with ‘Where clause’ it throwing the following error:
ORA-00905: missing keyword.
Following is the sample query which I tried to execute:
MERGE INTO TABLE_NAME
USING (SELECT COLUMN FORM TABLES)
ON (CONDITION)
WHEN MATCHED THEN
UPDATE SET
     COLUMN UPATES
WHERE CONDITION -- Can we use where clause here?
WHEN NOT MATCHED THEN
INSERT
INSERT VALUES;
Can some one help on this?
Thanks in advance.

Can we use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in JDBC Receiver

Hi All,
I would like to know is it possible to use both INSERT and UPDATE at the same time in one interface because I have a requirement in which I have to perform both the task.
user send the file which contains both new and old record and I need to save those in MS SQL database.
If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT.
I looked on sdn but didn't find any blog which perform both the things at the same time.
Interface Requirement
FILE -
> PI -
> JDBC(INSERT & UPDATE)
I am thinking to use JDBC Lookup but not sure if it good to use for bulk record.
Can somebody please suggest me something or send me the link of any blog or anything to solve this problem.
Thanks,

Hi ,
          If I have understood properly the scenario properly,you are not performing insert and update together. As you posted
"If the record exist then use UPDATE otherwise use INSERT."
Thus you are performing either an insert or an update which depends on outcome of a search if the records already exist in database or not. Obviously to search the tables you need " select * from ... where ...." query. If your query returns some results you proceed with update since this means there are some old records already in database. If your query returns no rows you proceed with "insert into tablename....." since there are no old records present in database.
Now perhaps the best method to do the searching, taking a decision to insert or update, and finally insert or update operation is to be done by a stored procedure in MS SQL database. A stored procedure is a subroutine available to applications accessing a relational database system. Here the application is PI server.   If you need further help on how to write and call stored procedure in MS SQL you can look into these links
http://www.daniweb.com/web-development/databases/ms-sql/threads/146829
http://www.sqlteam.com/article/stored-procedures-parameters-inserts-and-updates
[ This part you can ignore, Since its not sure that you will face this situation
    Still you might face some problems while your scenario runs. Lets consider this scenario, after the stored procedure searches the database it found no rows. Thus you proceed with an insert operation. If your database table is being accessed by multiple applications (or users) other than yours then it is very well possible that after the search operation completed with a null result, an insert/update operation has been performed by some other application with the same primary key. Now when you are trying to insert another row with same primary key you get an error message like "duplicate entry not possible for same primary key value". Thus you need to be careful in this respect. MS SQL has a feature called "exclusive locks ". Look into these links for more details on the subject
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa213039(v=sql.80).aspx

http://www.mollerus.net/tom/blog/2008/03/using_mssqls_nolock_for_faster_queries.html
    There must be other methods to avoid this problem. But the point is you need to be sure that all access to database for insert/update operations are isolated.

Which Java packages can be used in Script processors and where/how to customise EDQ

The online help for the Script processor shows an example using java.util:
output1 = java.util.UUID.randomUUID().toString()
but are there any other packages that can be used?
The background to this question is that we'd like to know whether it might be possible to call a web service from an EDQ process - would this possible through scripting, by creating a new processor or through some other customisation.
More fundamentally is there anything explaining where and how 'native' EDQ (i.e. not additional packs like the Customer Data Services Pack) can be customised and for what typical purposes.
Thanks, Nik

Hi,
Yes it is possible to call web services from script. Others will likely help with examples of how to do this.
For more information about extending EDQ, see the topic 'Extending EDQ' in the online help.
There is also a full guide to the processor library in the online help.

Mike

How can I use bookmark script to deselct sidebar option by default?

I am trying to include a User Friendly 1-Click link on my site to automatically bookmark a page.
Using the Ultimate Bookmark script this works fine in IE, but when the bookmarking window pops up it always has the "Load this bookmark in the sidebar" option pre-checked by default.
When testing the script I missed that point & took me quite a while to figure out what had gone wrong.
The thing is that while I may be fairly Computer Savvy, it must be be assumed that the vast majority of the visitors to the site are not, so what I want is to be able to deselect the Sidebar option by default, allowing the user to select it, should they want it.
Can I use a simple snippet of code in order to facilitate this?

Those page javascripts for "Bookmark this Page" either don't work for Firefox or automatically "check" the "Load this bookmark in the Sidebar" in Firefox (and other Gecko based browsers). A Bug was filed 10 or 11 years ago to address that "Load ... bookmark ... Sidebar" issue, but it was closed with WONTFIX. The developers feel that "fixing" that feature might create a potential exploit for Firefox users.
Best thing to do is under that "button" for other browsers, is put text along the lines of "Firefox users can Bookmark this Page using the Star or with Ctrl + D."

I CAN'T USE itunes6.05 after updating to 1.2

I've updated my 60Gb 5G ipod to 1.2 (i used another computer where my ipod visible in crabby itunes 7) and now it says that i can't use my itunes 6.05 and have to install 7th. I don't want to do that because of numerous bugs in that latest software.
That's the part of problem - the other one — i've downgraded software on my ipod back to 1.1.2 and it's now ok in itunes 6.05 But once i plug it to computer with Itunes 7 it's starting to do something with ipod library and after that it's becoming not visible in 6.05, and itunes 6.05 saying that i have to install 7th. ***?

If you are in camera roll you click the symbol at the bottom left, select the pics you want to forward, then click the blue next at the top right and select if you want to email, message, tweet, etc. If you are composing an email, press and hold the curser in the body of the email. The black bar (select, select all, paste >) come up. Click the arrow ">" and then select insert photo or video. In a message, click the camera icon to the left of the text message box. Hope that helps.
