Confirmation PO with FM caused data dupicate in MD04

Dear Experts,
Here's our problem:
1. We have a PO with quantity 1000 . And in MD04 - MRP Element data we can see this data.
2. Then we use FM : "ME_CONFIRMATION_UPDATE" to insert confirmation data directly to table "EKES", set comfirmed quantity 1000 for this PO.
3. Now there're two items appeared in MD04 for this PO, the original one and the comfirmed one.
4. Then we open this PO, click "Edit" icon, and save this PO without updating anything, and then goto MD04 again, there is only one item for this PO with 1000 comfirmed quantity.
It's really strange. Please help give some idea about how to fix this problem!
Thank you!
Andy

Hi all,
When you run the function ME_CONFIRMATION_UPDATE
pass in XEKES-KZDIS = 'X' as one of the function parameters in tables section.
In more detail:
CALL FUNCTION 'ME_CONFIRMATION_UPDATE' "Post order acceptance/fulfillment confirmations
EXPORTING
    i_ebeln =                   " ekko-ebeln
TABLES
    xekes =                     " uekes    "<---------------------------------------- Here put KZDIS = 'X' in the lines you are updating
*   yekes =                     " uekes
Best,
Iftah

Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)

Fresh installation of Exchange Server 2013 on Windows Server 2012.
Our first test account cannot access their email via Outlook but can access fine through OWA. The following message appears - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. You must connect to Microsoft Exchange with the current profile before you can synchronize
your folders with your Outlook data file (.ost)" is displayed.
If I turn off cached Exchange mode, setting the email account to not
cache does not resolve the issue and i get a new error message - "Cannot open your default e-mail folders. The file (path\profile name).ost is not an Outlook data file (.ost). Very odd since it creates its own .ost file when you run it for the first
time.
I cleared the appdata local Outlook folder and I tested on a new laptop that has never connected to Outlook, same error message on any system.
Microsoft Exchange RPC Client Access service is running.
No warning, error or critical messages in the eventlog, it's like the healthiest server alive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I haven't encountered this issue with previous versions of Exchange.

So it looks like a lot of people are having this issue and seeing how Exchange 2013 is still new (relatively to the world) there isn't much data around to answer this. I've spend ALOT of time trying to figure this out.
Here is the answer. :) - No I don't know all but I'm going to try to give you the most reasonable answer to this issue, in a most logical way.
First thing I did when I was troubleshooting this issue is that I ignored Martina Miskovic's suggestion for Step4 http://technet.microsoft.com/library/jj218640(EXCHG.150)because it didn't make sense to me because I was trying to connect
Outlook not outside the LAN but actually inside. However, Martina's suggestion does fix the issue if it's applied in the correct context.
This is where the plot thickens (it's stew). She failed to mention that things like SSL (which I configure practically useless - anyone who ever worked in a business environment where the owner pretty much trusts anyone in the company, otherwise they don't
work there - very good business practice in my eyes btw, can confirm that...) are some sort of fetish with Microsoft lately. Exchange 2013 was no exception.
In exchange 2003, exchange 2007 and exchange 2010 - you could install it and then go to outlook and set it up. And when outlook manual Microsoft Exchange profile would ask you for server name, you would give it and give the name of the person who you setting
up - as long as machine is on the domain, not much more is needed. IT JUST WORKS! :) What a concept, if the person already on premises of the business - GIVE HIM ACCESS. I guess that was too logical for Microsoft. Now if you're off premises you can use things
like OutlookAnywhere - which I might add had their place under that scenario.
In Exchange 2013, the world changed. Ofcourse Microsoft doesn't feel like telling it in a plain english to people - I'm sure there is an article somewhere but I didn't find it. Exchange 2013 does not support direct configuration of Outlook like all of it's
previous versions. Did you jaw drop? Mine did when I realized it. So now when you are asked for your server name in manual outlook set up and you give it Exchange2013.yourdomain.local - it says cannot connect to it. This happens because ALL - INTERNAL AND
EXTERNAL connection are now handled via OutlookAnywhere. You can't even disable that feature and have it function the reasonable way.
So now the question still remains - how do you configure outlook. Well under server properties there is this nice section called Outlook anywhere. You have a chance to configure it's External and Internal address. This is another thing that should be logical
but it didn't work that way for me. When I configured the external address different from the internal - it didn't work. So I strongly suggest you get it working with the same internal address first and then ponder how you want to make it work for the outside
users.
Now that you have this set up you have to go to virtual directories and configure the external and internal address there - this is actually what the Step 4 that Martina was refering to has you do.
Both external and internal address are now the same and you think you can configure your outlook manually - think again. One of the most lovely features of Outlook Anywhere, and the reason why I had never used it in the past is that it requires a TRUSTED
certificate.
See so it's not that exchange 2013 requires a trusted certificate - it's that exchange 2013 lacks the feature that was there since Windows 2000 and Exchange 5.5.
So it's time for you to install an Active Direction Certificate Authority. Refer to this wonderful article for exact steps - http://careexchange.in/how-to-install-certificate-authority-on-windows-server-2012/
Now even after you do that - it won't work because you have to add the base private key certificate, which you can download now from your internal certsrv site, to Default Domain Policy (AND yes some people claim NEVER mess with the Default Domain Policy,
always make an addition one... it's up to you - I don't see direct harm if you know what you want to accomplish) see this: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc738131%28v=ws.10%29.aspx if you want to know exact steps.
This is the moment of ZEN! :) Do you feel the excitement? After all it is your first time. Before we get too excited lets first request and then install the certificate to actual Exchange via the gui and assign it to all the services you can (IIS, SMTP and
there is a 3rd - I forgot, but you get the idea).
Now go to your client machine where you have the outlook open, browse to your exchange server via https://exchang2013/ in IE and if you don't get any certificate errors - it's good. If you do run on hte client and the server: gpupdate /force This will refresh
the policy. Don't try to manually install the certificate from Exchange's website on the client. If you wanna do something manually to it to the base certificate from the private key but if you added it to the domain policy you shouldn't have to do it.
Basically the idea is to make sure you have CA and that CA allows you to browse to exchange and you get no cert error and you can look at the cert and see that's from a domain CA.
NOW, you can configure your outlook. EASY grasshoppa - not the manual way. WHY? Cause the automatic way will now work. :) Let it discover that exachange and populate it all - and tell you I'm happy! :)
Open Outlook - BOOM! It works... Was it as good for you as it was for me?
You may ask, why can't I just configure it by manual - you CAN. It's just a nightmare. Go ahead and open the settings of the account that got auto configed... How do you like that server name? It should read something like [email protected]
and if you go to advanced and then connection tab - you'll see Outlook Anywhere is checked as well. Look at the settings - there is the name of the server, FQDN I might add. It's there in 2 places and one has that Mtdd-something:Exchange2013.yourdomain.local.
So what is that GUID in the server name and where does it come from. It's the identity of the user's mailbox so for every user that setting will be different but you can figure it out via the console on the Exchange server itself - if you wish.
Also a note, if your SSL certs have any trouble - it will just act like outlook can't connect to the exchange server even though it just declines the connection cause the cert/cert authority is not trusted.
So in short Outlook Anywhere is EVERYWHERE! And it has barely any gui or config and you just supposed to magically know that kind of generic error messages mean what... Server names are now GUIDs of the [email protected] - THAT MAKES PERFECT
SENSE MICROSOFT! ...and you have to manage certs... and the only place where you gonna find the name of the server is inside the d*** Outlook Anywhere settings in the config tab, un it's own config button - CAN WE PUT THE CONFIG ANY FURTHER!
Frustrating beyond reason - that should be Exchange's new slogan...
Hope this will help people in the future and won't get delete because it's bad PR for Microsoft.
PS
ALSO if you want to pick a fight with me about how SSL is more secure... I don't wanna hear it - go somewhere else...

Can I populate a text field in one PDF with the modification date of a different file ?

Rather convoluted problem here but I'm trying to place a text field on a PDF document that serves as the main menu page for a library of interlinked PDF documents
The complete library contains over 7,000 files and additions are added and documents changed almost daily.
We currently use batch files to open the main menu from it's shortcut and this runs a check on a sync log file (.txt) to ascertain when the last time the user synchronised with the server to get the latest copy of the files.
Between a certain time range they are told how long it has been since they sync'ed and are offered the option to sync before opening, after a prescribed timeframe they cannot enter without synchronising. We use Allways Sync to conduct the file synchronisation with our mother files on our server.
What I'd like to do is take advantage of Allways Syncs automatic synchronisation options to synchronise on log on and at prescribed idle periods there after.
This works fine but I'd like the text field on the main menu PDF to say when the last synchronisation took place - easy if the main menu is the last file modified .. just use info.modDate.
However, the main menu is rarely modified therefore I wish to import the text to populate the text field from a different file.. either by interrogating the other files modifictaion data (though I doubt Acrobat can do this) or by simply importing some text stored in another file (a .txt file?) which has previously been created by batch file commands.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. I'm using Acrobat 8.3.1. Professional on Windows XP (SP3).

Thank you for all your help above.
Just to confirm your advice, am I right with the following conclusions? :
1. The script (function) to fill the text field with the modification date of a different PDF file needs to be stored in a folder level .js file.
2. The document containing the text field needs to call the .js function either within the document script or within the custom script property of the text field itself.
Further to that can you just advise on the syntax for accessing the modification date of the other document.
Do I need to assign a variable to the address of the file to be used, and then use this variable in the text form filling script (as below) or can I use a direct file reference at the .modDate command.
var LastSync = "C:\sync\bin\lastsync.pdf";
var strMsg = util.printd("h:MM tt",LastSync.modDate) + " on ";
strMsg += util.printd("dddd, d mmmm, yyyy",LastSync.modDate);
this.getField("LastSyncDate").value = strMsg;
If the syntax is totally different to the above I would be very grateful for some guidance in the right direction.
I much appreciate your time to help me ... I'm almost there.
Kind Regards,
Nifty

How can I debug a problem with the 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s?

This question didn't get any answers in the "Using iPhone" forum. Thought I would re-ask here. Note, I had to reset the network again today 2 days after the last reset:
I've been having intermittent problems with my 3g data connection on my iPhone 4s on ATT. Whenever this happens I see full bars etc, but can't browse from safari or get any data in other apps. My wife's iPhone 4 right next to me has no issues at all. Switching on/off airplane mode and turning off/on Cellular Data does not help. The only thing that helps is resetting the Network Settings or hard restarting the phone.
I figured my problems were hardware related so I took my phone in for a replacement the other day. Things started out fine but after I upgraded it to 5.01 and restored my backup and now I am back to having the same issue today. I assume the issue is with something coming from my backup / restore but is there any way for me to pinpoint what could be causing the issue. I have a lot of apps, I'd rather not have to reinstall and set them all backup manually, but I would if I knew that would fix the problem... but for all I know one of the apps could be causing it.
Anyone have any logs I can check or testing I can do on my end?
Thanks!

Unfortunately, Apple does not make any logs available to the average schmoe (like us) for networking, kernel dumps, or anything else (assuming, of course, it is not jailbroken).
Your best bet is to take it back into the store. Ask them to look at the notes in GCRM regarding the last time this occured, then explain after upgrading to 5.01 it is occuring again. Then ask them for a phone swap since it is a reoccuring issue and doesn't sound like an OS/SW issue. Good luck!

@Embeddable with java.uitil.Date in JPQL (limitations ?)

I'm facing with problem regarding using java.util.Date in JPQL query.
Here are sample entities for test case:
@Embeddable
public class EmbCompTest implements Serializable{
     private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
     @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
     private Date beginPeriod;
     @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
     private Date endPeriod;
                   // getters and setters goes here (...)
@Entity
@Table(name="TEST_DATE")
@NamedQueries(
   @NamedQuery(name="getByDate",query="select e from TestDate e where e.beginDate=:beginDatePm"),
   @NamedQuery(name="getByDate2",query="select e from TestDate e where e.emb.beginPeriod=:beginPeriodPm")
public class TestDate {
     private static final long serialVersionUID = 6651720114733319974L;
     @Id
     private Long id;
     @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
     private Date beginDate;
     @Temporal(TemporalType.DATE)
     private Date endDate;
     @Embedded
     private EmbCompTest emb;
                     // getters and setters goes here (...)
The problem is in named query getByDate2 which causes persistence unit fail to start with exception
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Method must not be called with
argument "java.util.Date" or "java.util.Calendar"
Is that some SAP JPA limitation that makes unable to query by date defined in @Embeddable classes ?
Of course query getByDate works fine.
Best Regards
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
the query getByDate2 is OK and should work. This looks like a bug to me. If you have access to OSS, please file a ticket on BC-JAS-PER-JPA.
Have you tried typing beginPeriod with java.sql.Date. This might work. (I have not tried).

Compensation with changing payment date

Our customer has to close a lot of incoming invoices through Compensation process (close in the same time some incoming and some outgoing invoices of the same party). We plan to solve that through payment batch: the invoices will be selected and the batch will wait (will not be confirmed) till partner confirm compensation. But, very often, in the moment of confirmation, payment date has to be changed because it has been agreed differently with Partner Company.
EBS doesn't allow changing payment date in a payment batch.
May we create a procedure (concurrent request) to change payment date in a not confirmed payment batch? (Payment date is CHECK_DATE in AP_INV_SELECTION_CRITERIA_ALL). We know that we have to update also PAYMENT_DATE in AP_SELECTED_INVOICE_CHECKS_ALL.
Is there anything else what we have to change together with previously mentioned?
The procedure will be applicable only for payments in functional currency.

hi frane,
we cannot manipulate the data in apps tables other than interface tables provided by EBS.
if the payment date is not the value date for bank, then you can leave it as it is. if it is so important, modify your payment format program to change the date while creating the bank payment file for banker. as far as payment date on the unconfirmed batch it will stay the same and should not make any difference as long as the confirmation of the payment batch is not crossing the payable period.
thanks,

No data on BlackBerry 10 even with a working data plan

Hi,
Q10, unlocked, 10.1.0.4181, Estonian SIM card with a working data plan, correctly set APN, a bunch of restarts, etc - still no data connectivity. With WiFi on, data works, BBM works, everything except for the App World (which is n/a here) works.
Now. Where is the problem, and how do we solve it? I'm not going to be very keep on accepting answers like "lol you've just spent 650 EUR on a phone and a 10EUR/mo data plan with a 12 months contract which you can throw out of the window."
Thank you kindly for your answers and suggestions.

So, have you specifically asked your carrier about any of this, or are you operating purely on assumption? You see, it's entirely possible that your carrier has erroneously mis-provisioned something about your plan, and that's what is causing you to not have any services. It's also possible that you simply cannot have the services you desire on this carrier. But, as has been from the start here, only your carrier can answer these questions, for we have no visibility into anything beyond the words you provide us here -- and so far, all of those words indicate that you must have a discussion with your carrier, but for some reason you are refusing to do so...I really don't understand why you are so reluctant...
Good luck!

Combined delivery with different delivery dates:

Combined delivery with different delivery dates:
We are experiencing a problem when doing combined delivery from multiple orders of the same ship to party.
All the requirements are being met (for the order combination) accept the Delivery dates.
Sometimes an order Qty is confirmed on the 1at of a month , then the second order qty is confirmed on the 15th of the month. But when we want to make the combined delivery , the delivery dates differ and the user has to go into the individual order ans changes the dates.
Is there a way to make the combination, the system not taking in account the delivery dates? Because we have huge no. of orders to combine. Please guide.
Regards,
Mansur.

Dear Mansur,
I think there is no any solution exaclty map with your problem in standard SAP.
Better you control based on the MRP type, not sure. And also check with availability check and tranfer of requirments.
Thnx,

ICloud photos sync with today's date instead of date taken

I just got a new laptop for work and installed iCloud to sync my PhotoStream to it. The photos all synced, but they are displaying a modified date of today instead of the date the photo was originally taken. On my old laptop, the photos seemed to display a Modified Date closer to the date they were taken. When I look at the photos on my iPhone, they all have the correct Modified Date. Something is causing the Modified Date to be switched to today's dte when they sync. Does anyone know why? Is this always how iCloud works and I just have noticed it because my photos were syncing to my laptop as soon as I added them to the stream? Or is there an iCloud setting or file system permissions thing causing this?

thank you for your response. strange, though, the vids used to export with the file date that i shot the vid... it's only since i updated iphoto that this is happening. but i like your idea of adding the date to the file name... i just wish i didn't have to do that extra step now, since i have a lot of videos.

Changes will cause Data to be deleted message

Hi,
Here is the issue I am experiencing:
1. I have a UDO of Master Data type and created a custom form to Add/Update/Delete data.
2. When I scroll through each record, I get a message "Changes will cause Data to be deleted". Continue?
I have confirmed that the form is in OK mode. How can I make this message go away?
Gopal

Hi Gopal,
Even if the form is in OK mode, the edits cause the form to go into Update mode, which is why you see this message.
If it suits your scenario, set "AffectsFormMode" property to false for items which should not trigger a mode change (if loading the form from XML, set AffectsFormMode="0")
You can also look at these form properties:
Form.AutoManaged
Form.SupportedModes

SSRS export to PDF errors out with one specific data set

I have a SSRS report that fails to export to a PDF file with a particular set of data. The PDF export works great with every other set of data that we have run through it. The suspect report/data can be viewed fine and exported to other formats
without issues.
It almost appears that the PDF export has issues with how the data falls on the page. If I change the top/bottom margin size, increase the length of the report by adding whitespace or increase/decrease the size of the header/footer, the report will
export to PDF without any issues.
We are currently using SQL Server 2008, SP3 CU12.
This is the error log that occurs for the export:

Hi GravityJunky,
Based on the error message, the object reference is not set to an instance, it is typically caused by one or more of the following reasons:
There are soft page breaks within empty lists in the report.
There are hidden groups within the report and you tried to export it to PDF.
There are text boxes with a width and/or height of zero in the report.
A text box is either hidden or the NoRows property is set to true.
A text box spans table cells where some cells have a collection of null values.
The report has static columns and/or rows and, in the Visibility properties, Hidden is set to true.
The report has static columns and/or rows and there are grand totals in the report.
The report has static column headings and, in the Visibility properties, Hidden is set to true.
The matrix report has multiple columns and rows and, in the Visibility properties, Hidden is set to true and you tried to export to PDF.
To troubleshoot the problem, please refer to the following steps:
Review the specific error contained within the message and then, depending on the message, review your report.
If the problem is related to soft page break issues, try increasing the page height, reducing the first row height, or reducing the number of header rows.
If the problem is related to errors when rounding the image size up or down, try slightly increasing the page header height so that it is different than the image height, or try changing the image size to fit better.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Exporting photos with full meta data

Hi all, I'm trying to export some pics. I'm exporting them to a folder on my desktop, after the export I go to any of the pics and click CDM+I to check the info on the pics and it is showing the pic as having been created now, not when it taken. I would like to be able to keep the original data on the pic. What an I doing wrong ? I've tried several ways under file-export but always lose the date and time when the pic was taken, all other camera info is intact.. Thanks for any help.
Randy

Hard to recall when I last so so much incorrect material in a single post. It's quite obvious that you have little understanding of how digital photography works, the relationship between photos, files, Exif and IPTC metadata and how a Photo Manager works. Indeed, you seem clueless as to how the forum works too.
There is no bug in iPhoto. Yes you do get out what you originally put in, plus whatever you added.
First misunderstanding: A File is not a Photo. A file is a collection of data. The file has a creation date, a file has modification date. Neither of these things necessarily reflect the date of the Photograph. Simple example: When you copy a file from a camera to your computer a +new file is made+. That's a simle fact. One file cannot be both on your camera and your computer.
To overcome this difficultly Exif metadata was created. This is part of the Photo. It records - along with a lot of other data - the date and time the Photo was taken. As you copy files this data is copied and so, even though the dates on the file may change the dates on the photo doesn't.
Exif is standard metadata supported by every camera manufacturer, every computer OS and any significant photo applications out there. Perhaps you should read up a little on it. It might help clear up your thinking.
Also an export might appear to fail when 90% done due to a volume error.
A volume error has nothing to do with Metadata, nothing to do with where you imported files from, nor indeed where the files are stored. This is utter twaddle. It's a bit like saying "If the children are in the back seat, the front wheel might fall off your car". Rubbish.
The Folder Structure of the Library - or indeed the one the files are imported from - matters not a single whit. A photo app gets +no information whatever+ about a photo from the folder it is in. Nothing. Zilch. Nada.
Now as well as not understanding much about Photos, files and metadata, you demonstrate that you are equally clueless about iPhoto.
. You will see two folders named Originals and Modified and if you want to just bail on iPhoto and possibly retain some organization of your photos, you can just drag these out of the iPhoto library to your hard drive
Now there's an excellent way to lose lots and lots of metadata. For a start you lose any metadata you've added in iPhoto - titles, descriptions, keywords. The only way to get this data is to export from iPhoto. Really, there is never a need to enter the library in this way. What you suggests causes data loss and you might take the time to warn folks: "Oh by the way, doing what I suggest will cause dataloss."
The error people keep getting... is likely because the export combines all your photos into one folder,
Export will not do this +unless you tell it to+
and most people have multiple duplicate file names like 1.jpg or family.jpg etc.
Most people?
so iPhoto can't complete an export of "originals" and your only other likely option is to do an export in numeric sequence, which will likely lose all the original file names.
A really basic misunderstanding. This is a (very sensible) limitation of the Finder You can't have two files of the same name in one folder. One will overwrite the other and so you lose data. If you ask iPhoto to export two files of the same name to a single folder it won't do it as the second would overwrite the first. You wouldn't want that would you? So, your "bug" is a simple and sensible precaution against dataloss.
There are several possible naming schemes within iPhoto to avoid this problem, but the easiest is the one is sequential. Why? Because you can choose your Prefix. So, if you have two files called "Family" then you can give them the Prefix family and export sequentially. Result: two files called Family1 and Family2.
But all this can be avoided simply by not exporting into one large folder. If, instead, you export Event by Event (something that can be done manually, or automated with Automator or with a free 3rd party app) then the problem doesn't arise at all.
This IS a bug in iPhoto IMHO and there should have been a warning that you could lose all your original organization when doing a destructive "Import" and a warning that you will become locked into iPhoto without making tedious exports and renaming.
So, no bug, no need of a warning, no lock into iPhoto.
The problem with ignorance, as someone once said, is that it gains confidence as it goes along. And so, to your misunderstanding of how this forum works.
What these cryptic mods
Cryptic? Mods? No one posting here is a Moderator. We're all just iPhoto users. This is explained clearly in the Terms of Use you agreed to when you signed up to the forum. Read them sometime.
...is that your original photo metadata is still in the photo,
Oh but it is... see that whole Exif metadata thing above...
you need some third party program to read it.
No. For a start, on your Mac, iPhoto and Preview will read it. Whatever software came with your camera will read it.
Apple made NEW file dates when it imported them.
Yes. But as explained above, the photo date is not the fie date.

Are there evidence of Bots on macs with up to date software?

Comcast has told me I have bots generating from my all mac network. They want me to install Norton Mac antivirus software and pay $100 for someone to analyze my mac. I am actually an internet security expert and I am very doubtful of their claims.
For example they told me they traced my IP address to a bot army. Since I use dynamic DNS with an apple extreme router, I already know that I get a new IP address every few weeks. I wonder how they are tracing IP addresses?
So if I keep Java and my Mac OS up to date, has there been an incidence of a Bot invasion with up to date Mac software that would be found by Norton?

The Comcast forums are no different than the Apple forums. The only people posting are the ones having problems. Out of 16 million subscribers, I'm sure there are quite a few bittorrent and peer-to-peer users.
To quote Comcast:
We identify infected computers in several ways. First, we get data from reputable Internet research
groups that specialize in bot identification. The data we get includes a list of Internet Protocol (IP)
addresses that are infected and those that belong to bot command and control channels. Second,
we look for malicious behavior exhibited by bots such as spam, distributed denial of service attacks
and repeated connections requests to known command and control channels. We then aggregate
this data to confirm whether one or more of your computers has been infected.
The way bittorrent and peer-to-peer software works is that your computer will make a massive number of connections to machines looking for software. Some of those servers are what are known as "honeypots". They will collect your IP address, the software or files you are searching for, the software or files you are sharing, and forward it along to Comcast and others. Some of them may try to call you back hoping to find a Windows machine at the other end they can take over (as in a "bot"). That is going to fail on a Mac, but Comcast will know that they tried and then "aggregate" that fact.

How to take list backup with lookup columns data in sharepoint 2010

Hi friends,
I have one issue on "Copy the list in one sitecollection to another sitecollection"
I have one list like "ABC" and with lookup column "Status" this column is looked to anthor list columns
My task is i want to Copy the same list with lookup columns with Data(lookup columns Data) in one site and restored in another site.
Error is Lookup columns Data is not coming.
How to Copied list with lookup columns data to restored in another list?
Badri

i think there is no such method to move the list with lookup column.
couple of things which cause the failure, Number Source list may be not available on the target site collection, Column IDs / List IDs different from Site collection a to B.
I would try to use the backup of site collection and restore it, i am not sure whether it will work not.
i think copy the data from the lookup clomn in the excel, then move the list to different site collection with blank data then copy the data from excel to new list.
check this one for another idea:

Numeric Format with "dB" causes strange Increment and Decrement behavior

To reproduce this, drop a numeric control in LabVIEW (Version 8.2 and later).
Right click on the numeric control and select properties
Select the "Format and Precision" tab
Select the "Advanced editing mode" radio button
Change the Format string to "%#_gdB" and press OK.
Type "-123" into the numeric control.
Place the cursor inbetween the 2 and 3. Press the up arrow. The normal response of the numeric is to increment the number to the left of the cursor, in this case the 2. The expected number is -113. However, with the "dB" in the format string, the number becomes -11.3. This caused a problem with a Signal Generator whose power output (in Decibels) was controlled by this instrument. in 2 keystrokes, the power went from -80dB to 0dB and almost damaged some equipment.
The work around is to remove the dB from the format string or put it in parenthesis. However, this seems like a bug. If someone from National Instruments determines this is a bug, please post the CAR# to this thread. Otherwise, it would be nice to have this behavior explained.

Interesting behavior. I confirmed this with 8.2. What's more interesting is that the behavior is not consistent. If you use "Hz" the control works as you expected it to work. If you use "A", and perform the same steps, pressing the up arrow gets you "NaN". I tried putting a space before the "dB", and it made no difference. At first I thought that the "d" was being misinterpreted, but the result from using "A" made no sense. Very odd.
Lesson learned from your experience: Always make sure to check the values that you want to set before you actually set them. You should have 2 layers of checking. The lowest level checks the values against the instrument's capabilities. In other words, making sure you don't try to program a level of 100 when the instrument can only handle 10. A higher level should check values against usage limits. This is where you put in the valid ranges for how you're using the instrument. For example, even though the instrument may be able to go to 13 dBm, in your testing you may only want a maximum setting of, say, -20 dBm. In my code I write a wrapper VI around each driver function to implement this. This requires extra code, but it can save your butt in many instances.
