Can I use lookout to retreive data in CSV file stored at a network PC

The machines I try to interface are PC based machines and network capability. All the informations are stored in CSV files.Is it posssible to use lookout to read these CSV files periodically.
Thanks

Lookout does not have built-in functions to read CSV files. However, their are some ODBC drivers that are capable of reading/writing text files, and you can use Lookout's SQLExec object to communicate with those ODBC drivers. For example, the Microsoft Text Driver in your ODBC control panel will let you do this.

  • How can I add links to open xml and csv files stored in another location? Please advice how to place links in my frame maker document?

    Hi,
    I would like to know as to how can I add links to open xml and csv files stored in another location? Please advice how to place links in my frame maker document?
    Kindly advice.
    Thanks
    Priya

    Special > Hypertext > Command "open document" will do its best to open the target document inside FrameMaker, which may not be much help; Special > Hypertext > Command "message …" will use the application you specify. The user guide for 7.0 says this about absolute links, and I don't think anything has changed since:
    For example, to start PaintBrush and open the Ship.pcx file on drive C you would use the command message system pbrush.exe C:/Ship.pcx
    I've not often used a relative link, and not recently: the same source says
    folder levels are separated by a slash / even in Windows and Mac
    [relative links] FrameMaker searches for a relative pathname beginning in the folder that contains the current document
    [absolute links] FrameMaker searches for an absolute pathname beginning at the top of the file system. In Windows, the absolute pathname begins with the drive specifier, a colon and a slash.

  • Can you use SQL as a data source for a project in the same way you can in Excel?

    Excel allows you to create a data source that executes a SQL stored procedure, display that data as a table in a spreadsheet and have that data automatically refresh each time you open the spreadsheet. Is it possible to do the same thing in MS Project, displaying
    the data from the stored procedure as a series of tasks?
    Here's what I'm trying to do - I have a stored procedure that pulls task data meeting a specific criteria from all projects in Project Server. We're currently displaying this data as an Excel report. However, the data includes start dates and durations so
    it would be nice to be able to display it as a Gantt Chart. I've played around with creating a Gantt chart in Excel and have been able to do a very basic one, but it doesn’t quite fit our needs.

    No, You can not use sql as a data source for a project.
    You have 3 options to achieve it:
    1. You can create a Sharepoint list with desired column ,fill desired data in that list then you can create a MS project from Sharepoint List.
    2. You can create a SSRS report in which you can display grantt chart Joe has given you that link.
    3. You can write a macro in MPP which will take data from your excel. In excel you will fetch data from your stored procedure. write a schedule which will run every day to update your data or
    create an excel report in which will update automatically and write macro in mpp which will fetch the data then publish it so that it would be available to team members.

  • Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Win32 function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.

    Can I use LabVIEW to load data directly into system memory from a VI? The serial card I'm using isn't supported by NI nor does VISA recognize it. I'm using a Call Library function to read the data from the card and now I want it to go directly to system memory.
    The data is being received at 1Mbps.
    Thanks

    Two questions:
    One, if it's a serial card, then presumably it gives you more serial ports, like COM3, COM4, etc. If so, VISA would see the COM ports, and not the card directly. The drivers for the card should make it so that you see the extra serial ports from the OS. If you don't see the extra COM ports from VISA, then it sounds like the drivers for the card are not installed properly. Do the extra COM ports show up in Device Manager?
    Two, you said that you're using a Call Library function to get the data and you want to put it into system memory. Errr.... you just read the data and you have it in memory by definition. Are you saying you need a way to parse the data so it shows up on a graph or something?

  • Can i use a environment variable inside a *.sql file?

    Hello,
    I want to create a external table.
    So i am using the command
    create or replace directory abc as 'C:\folder'.... inside a sql file.
    Now i want the path "C:\folder" to be dynamic as i am using this path in many other places also inside the sql file.So i thought to create a environment variable and put this value there.I tried using as %PATH% but it gives error..... where %PATH%=C:\folder.
    Can i use a environment variable inside a *.sql file?
    But how to do that or is there any other way.
    Thanks

    Actually what i want is the path "C:\folder" is not fixed it can be anything which i may not know the user may decide it later. Not supported. A directory object refers to a specific physical location (directory/folder) on a file system. Not a path.
    You can work around it by (creating and) using a function (running under a super user schema with authid definer privs). The caller (e.g. schema scott ) calls it with a physical path. E.g. GetDirectoryObject( 'C:\folder\2010\feb\week4' ).
    This function determines if there is an existing directory object for the path. If not, it uses a wildcard search to determine if there are any directory objects for parents in the path (e.g. for C:\folder\2010\feb or C:\folder\2010 or C:\folder ).
    If it finds a directory object, it interrogates the data dictionary to determine if the caller, schema scott for example, has read/write access on that directory object. If it has, it creates a new directory object and grants the caller read/write access to it. The function then returns the name of the directory object to the caller.
    The caller thus do not deal directly with directory objects. The function returns the object name given a physical path as input. Also, only a single base directory needs to be created (e.g. for C:\folder ) and access granted to the schema on it. Any sub-directory in that base directory can now be dynamically accessed by the schema.

    The CCK will find/ask to download (if iPad supported formate )picture and video files if the device is formated in FAT 16 or 32 and the supported files are placed in a "DCIM" folder in the root directory. I have transfered such files from SD card and USB drives. However, not USB drive work. I had an old 2GB (very large) and when i connected it it said it drew too much power.
    I also downloaded pictures and video files from a compact flash card and smart media card via a SanDisk USB card reader.

    No. The CCK is only designed to allow you to import photos from a digital camera via USB or an SD card. You cannot import any data via this kit and no other files will work as it's designed for only the functionality it does. The kit looks for a folder with the label "DSC####### the same structure as most digital cameras, and will only function with JPG files.

  • Export batch data into CSV file using SQL SP

    Hi,
    I have created WCF-Custom receive adapter to poll Sql SP (WITH xmlnamespaces(DEFAULT 'Namespace' and For XML PATH(''), Type) . Get the result properly in batch while polling and but getting error while converting into CSV by using map.
    Please can anyone give me some idea to export SQL data into CSV file using SP.

    How are you doing this.
    You would have got XML representation for the XML batch received from SQL
    You should have a flat-file schema representing the CSV file which you want to send.
    Map the received XML representation of data from SQL to flat-file schema
    have custom pipeline with flat-file assembler on the assembler stage of the send pipeline.
    In the send port use the map which convert received XML from SQL to flat file schema and use the above custom flat-file disassembler send port
    If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful by clicking the upward arrow mark next to my reply.

  • How can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files?

    I read that iWeb stores one's website pages in the domain folder which can be located at ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Can I use time machine to recover my iWeb09 files? If so, how? -I tried. I entered my Time Machine back up, and went back in time and brought the domain file forward but it opened only my current site pages, not the ones I am trying to recover. And it says the Domain file was last modified in October 2007 which is crazy because I've been using iWeb a lot and have published many pages. It seems like the uncorrupted pages, which I am trying to recover, existed somewhere on my computer at one point in time and space, less than a week ago, becuse I just published my site to a new hosting service since Apple will soon stop web hosting. So why can I not find them using time machine?

    I continued searching and read another person's advise to down load an app named "Find File," then search for .sites. She said spotlight doesn't always find all files. So I did and sure enough, when I searched for .sites I found another Domain package, which I have no idea how it was created but which, it ends up, was the one actually being used by iWeb. So I went to that package then did the time machine and went back to before my web pages became corrupted. I had to delete corrupt blog pages out of my website menu to get iWeb to upload the other page changes even to a local folder.
    So I went to that newly found Domain, went back in time, then brought that forward and as you pointed out the domain package had the parts of the pages, the files and jpegs, but not the structure/layout of the pages. So, I guess I gave up on finding the old pages.
    Those pages still exist on the Apple hosting server but iWeb doesn't not reverse publication. Cyberduck would bring back the files and bits and peices but again not the pages as a total entity. I'm preparing for the end of Apple website hosting (next month?) and am republishing my old site. I decided to use a new domain name. So my entire original site is still totally intact on the web under the original domain name, on my mobile me site, I guess it will be there till sometime in June?
    My problems started when I tried to publish my website to the new server. It just would not publish the whole website in one session. So I decided to do it a few pages at a time. Some pages went up, but as I added more, for some unknown reason the, blog pages, (about 70 subpages),  which had aleardy uploaded just fine to the new server, became corrupt and locked up iWeb. Of course once I deleted the corrupt pages I didn't want to continue publishing the site to the host until I found and reinserted uncorrupted pages, knowing publishing changes would delete the already published pages.
    At first I thought it was the hosting server's fault, but when I discovered that it wouldn't publish even to a local fold I was able to locate the cause within iWeb, deleted those pages then tested by publishing to a local folder. iWeb worked locally, so I knew I had found the problem pages. Well this is way more than you wanted to know. Thanks for your advise but I'll just start the blogging pages over.

  • Can I use my airport to see how many devices are on my network?

    Can I use my airport to see how many devices are on my network?

    No, that info was removed from the airport utility at v6 toyland edition.
    The last real utility was 5.6.1 and although it is not actually supposed to work on AC model it does sometimes.
    But you can generally see what is on your network using the netstat command in the computer..
    Open the network utility and go to the netstat page and run scan.. this can take a few minutes.. and should show all the clients as well as the router/s. At least all the ones the computer can see.
    The network utility is under utilized as people seem to not know of it.
    There are iOS tools like this as well. Sorry but I don't remember the name/s.

  • You can't use Contribute to edit this type of file

    I've updated a few pages from a website, so they're just
    variations of pages that used to work with Contribute. Now I'm
    getting a message--on some of them--that "you can't used Contribute
    to edit this type of file." These are html files with the extension
    htm. They contain tables. They are based on templates. They don't
    seem to have any other distinguishing properties. Exactly what kind
    of files don't work? What might I be doing wrong? I teach this at a
    college & my students are as puzzled as I am.

    Ancient thread, but if anyone else is googling this phrase I thought I might respond with a possible answer.  I encountered the same error but could not find anything wrong with the page in question.  Turned out the page getting the error message was fine! The issue was actually with a simple typo on the page that linked to that page--it was missing the extension (e.g., linking to "page2" instead of "page2.php".  The web server (and Contribute's browser) were pulling up the page even though the extension was missing but Contribute didn't know what kind of file it was so it refused to allow editing.

  • Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file

    I am trying to create a Type 1 font postscript file. But I found it is hard to find the library to generate the Type 1 font postscript file. I just found a library named iText which can create the Type 1 font PDF file.
    Are there any libraries can be used to generate Type 1 font postscript file?
    Thanks!

    I don't see much benefit with the current ODI adaptors for planning if it is an EPMA type planning application.
    They have been specifically designed to work with classic planning applications.
    It certainly is possible to load into EPMA interface tables using ODI though there are no direct adaptors and it takes quite a bit of effect to get them into the correct format.

  • Can I use my Mac to make a backup file of a MS DOS file

    Can I use my Mac to make a backup file of a MS DOS file?

    Have you verified that the mill is using FAT12?
    Do I understand correctly that the mill boots from the floppy - it has no other storage?
    If that is the case, then the new disk needs to be in the correct format and set up as a boot disk, which will not happen automatically, and I'm not sure if you can do it with OS X. The instructions on this page should help.
    If it is something you need to do a lot of, and have no access to an MS-DOS computer, you could consider installing the Parallels virtual machine software on your Mac, and setting up a virtual MS-DOS system.
