Conversion from ABC to 123 format causes data loss

Hi,
I have imported Excel data onto Lumira. The data set contains a "Net Price" column which is detected as ABC. Whenever I convert it to numerical format, I lose some data. Please see the snapshots. What can be the issue? Any background information about conversions?

Hi,
I too faced the same issues, but may be we can try this one.
Split the data with currency using format option to just data(number) and then convert that particular data(only numeric) part to measure.
I don't think we have any option to append currency and make it as a measure.
May be in the further releases
Thanks,
Varsha

Poor raw conversion from Fujifilm X100 .raf format in Lightroom 3 and 4

I'm seeing very poor results when doing raw conversion from Fujifilm X100 .raf format. Who can I contact about this? Is there anything I can do?
See below for what is supposed to be a white curtain, lit by stage lighting. It results in a blown out blue channel, serious loss of detail, and very ugly gradient.
(Lightroom 4.2, Camera Raw 7.2 on LEFT --- Fujifilm X100 in-camera jpg on RIGHT)
And for more detail:
(Lightroom 4.2, Camera Raw 7.2 on TOP --- Fujifilm X100 in-camera jpg on BOTTOM)
(Lightroom 4.2, Camera Raw 7.2 on LEFT --- Fujifilm X100 in-camera jpg on RIGHT)

The blue light is so intense that it is, or almost is, saturating the sensor.
The camera’s built-in raw conversion handles this by shifting the color to cyan—clipping the blue and allowing the green to contribute more. I doubt there was cyan lighting in the scene, only blue.
Adobe does not shift the hue, but this makes the blue seem over saturated. Adobe’s conversion may be more colorimetrically correct, but less pleasing in this case of intense lighting that the sensor cannot accurately record.
It is a difference in camera profile used between the camera and Adobe. Since Adobe does not supply camera-match profiles for much more than Nikon and Canon cameras, you’re not going to be able to fix things other than managing the over-saturation using HSL or WB or other things like lower-vibrance, higher saturation.
You could try making your own camera profile using an X-Rite Color-Checker Passport or the color-checker and the Adobe DNG Profile Editor:

Conversion from UTF to EBCDIC format- Urgent

I want to convert the data from UTF* format to EBCDIC format and create a flat file for the same. Is there any utility tools available in oracle. If not what are the other possibilities? pls help me.
Thanks
Krishnaraj

Hi ,
I am trying to convert the normal text data to EBCDIC. As we all know, there is a corresponding value for each normal character in ASCII/HEX/BINARY/EBCDIC etc.
Using CONVERT I am able to see some data converted correctly but rest of hte accented characters not correctly.
select convert('^', 'US7ASCII','EBCDIC' ) from dual;
select convert(';' ,'WE8EBCDIC500','US7ASCII') from dual;
^ = ascii normal txt
; = corresponding ebcdic of ^
Internally CONVERT function seems to be doing correct conversion but there is a problem wiht the actually new - to be replaced characters. SQLPLUS is not able to display all the characters correctly. For all the accented chars of "a", it shows plain english a, same wiht e , u etc.
I would like to know is there anyone who knows what client side settings need to be done so that the CONVERT function output is displayed correctly on SQLPLUS.
I am using Oracle 9i Rel 2
NLS_LANG on my client (win XP) is set to AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
As seen in the CONVERT function, the correct charset is - 'WE8EBCDIC500'
And the db params are as follows --
===========================================
SQL> select * from NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS;

Formate Conversion: From Reports to Msword Format

Hi all
I am using oracle 9i reports. I generate one report and the out put in rtf format. when run this report and get the out put in file and can see by double click on it and its going open in Msword automatically. my problem start when i run this report from the forms using the run_report object and then suing web.show_documents to see the report in word. its working fine but every time it ask me the editor where i have to open this file. so i have to select Msword then its open. My all users can not do this one. so is there any way that it should be open automatically with out asking.
here is my code
WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT('/reports/rwservlet/getjobid'||substr(v_rep,instr(v_rep,'_',-1)+1)|| '?'||'server=' || :global.reportserver,'_blank');
and in my report object property i have set all the property that the format is rtf
Thanks

I believe that is not possible. When getting a RTF document from a web site, Internet Explorer always asks you if you want to open or save the file. The file cannot be viewed directly in IE. That has to do with the fact that MS Word has to convert the RTF file first before it can be displayed.
There may be IE plugins on Internet that can directly view RTF files in the browser, but I'm not sure.
Another option is to use PDF instead of RTF. PDF can be viewed directly in the browser.

Conversion from Word 2003 changed format

Converted a manuscript from Word 2003 to PDF. The PDF changed the format/margins slightly, resulting in different pagination. How do I work around that?

Most likely what has happened is that the PDF printer resolution is different than your default printer. While you are editing the DOC file, change the printer to the Adobe PDF printer and go through the WORD file to get the pages the way you want. Then the resultant PDF should be the same. WORD usually reflows and document to best flow for the selected printer. So if you change the printer before you print (or select PDF Maker), then WORD reformats the document for output. This is the difference between a word processor and a layout program.

Compression from HD to letterbox format causes very bad pixelisation

I have imported HD footage in 16:9 format from a Sony HD video camera.
I need to compress this footage to a web movie size of 320 x 240.
In order to do this without squashing the footage I have to letterbox it however the resulting movie is terrible with very distinct pixel lines running top to bottom down the movie.
The only way to avoid this is to use the Preserve Aspect Ratio and then use the fit to dimensions option instead of letterbox.
This will however get auto squashed when i try and load it into the 320 x 240 movie so is no good.
What can I do to keep the letterbox format but get rid of the pixelisation.
Thanks

[DATA LOSS] I closed the Tab Groups and all my tabs dissapeared. How can I recover the tabs in Firefox 26? Would you please just delete this feature?

Thank-you in advance for reading all of this.
A slip of the mouse in trying to return to the left-most tab caused the tab groups feature to take over the window. I completely failed to comprehend what I was looking at and closed the thing by clicking the x because I damn sure didn't want what I was looking at. Undo close group? Of course not, I didn't want a group in the first place. Hey! My tabs are completely gone now! So in just a few steps all of which seemed innocent, I have lost all but ten of the tabs that were open, and those were only the most recent ten (and actually older tabs would have been more valueable than newer so insult on top of injury).
I don't think increasing the number of undoable tab closures is the answer. I think getting rid of the tab groups feature all together is the best way to go. I seem to have lost all the tabs I had open, irretrievably, and some of them had been open for WEEKS so they can't be reopened from history.
The tab groups feature is a data loss bug. Please remove it from the UX completely. If you have to figure out a way to grandfather people who actually have a tab group, fine but don't further vex me with it, please.
The reason this catastrophe has occurred is that your feature, was so discoverable that I activated it by mistake, and the UI after that had to be learned on the spot, yet was too complicated to learn. You really should withdraw it until you can figure out how to keep the UI for it from causing data loss such as I have experienced this morning.
Also, there may be other questions on this feature which are from a certain point of view the same as this one. It's hard for me to tell for sure. None of them had a true resolution so that's why I posted this one, also I'm seeking a specific fix, removal of the offending feature.
Why remove the feature? Because if I allow in my discussion the possibility of retaining it, it will stick around in its present and dangerous form until your team is done bikeshedding the new form it should take. Instead I want you to delete the feature and then require its champion to convince you that a new incarnation won't cause data loss before you allow it back in.
Fellow users, if you know of a way to recover all 50 lost tabs from an "undo close tab group incident", I would be grateful for that advice, but I would still believe the feature should be deleted. Some of the tabs have been retained for months so digging them out of the history is not practical.

I am not 100% certain but I am fairly sure development of this tab feature has ceased and it is likely to be deprecated. I am even less sure what the replacement will be.
Thus forum is not the place for discussing development issues or feature requests. (Developers do not use this site)
*You could comment using feedback <br /> https://input.mozilla.org/en-US/feedback
*Or try to find a developers forum or mailing list <br /> http://www.mozilla.org/about/forums/#general-development
I have not tried this and am not even using Windows at present but the tabs groups are stored as entries in the sessionstore.js files. Firefox has such a file plus sometimes numbered copies and a backup copy. Firefox will have re-writen these files but I suppose there is a posibility the Windows OS may have kept copies.
* see http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sessionstore.js Note the files are kept within the Firefox Profile
** Firefox Button -> Help -> Troubleshooting [open profile] (or some thing similar) is one method of locating the profile.
Find and backup any current sessionstore.js file. Consider also bookmark or otherwise recording anything you have open. Now find any previous versions and try putting them in Firefox's profile before restarting it.

A warning about 2.6.9-rc1-mm1 (Data Loss)

2.6.9-rc1-mm1 contains patches that can cause data loss. See this thread http://lkml.org/lkml/2004/8/27/59, which contains a patch to correct the problem.

my personal rule for kernels:
never expect a rcX-yyZ to work!!!!
rcX means: we need testers for vanilla - made under time-pressure
yyZ means: it's another tree than vanilla
this together can cause difficulties
thanx for letting us know - i forwarded it to kerneltrap

Date Format Conversion from MM.DD.YYYY to YYYYMMDD

Hi All,
I am trying to load data from r/3, and i have date format as MM.DD.YYYY in source system.how can i convert this into YYYYMMDD format in transfer rules(I know that we have to write a routine in transfer rules).Could anybody help me out pl?..pl give me conversion routine for it.
Here BW Filed is 0DATE and R/3 Filed is ZZDATE.
regards
murali.
Message was edited by: Murali

Hi,
Try to under stand what I am asking :
<b>What is the domain(or data type) used for the ZZDATE field.</b>
Ok ,
If some records are having proper format and others are having wrong format, even we canot correct this with routine also. So in this case you have to edit manually at PSA, then do upload.
You are right, when we are populating data to ODS , if there is any wrong format of value, it will not disply the error at the time of loading .It will through the error at the time of activation.

Date conversion from Excel to the SAP format

Hi,
I have created a BDC program which uploads daat from Excel sheet.
There is a date field also, the format of which can be any as per the end user (it will be one of those allowed by SAP).
However, the file will be used for execution by another user who may have a date setting which is different than that from the one in Excel.
Eg. End User's date format: DD.MM.YYYY, SAP User's date format: MM/DD/YYYY
So, how do I convert the date format from excel to the format which will be accepted by the transaction during the recording?
Regards,
Dave

Hi Dave,
I have faced the same issue while uploading the date to the bdc.
if ur date format is DD.MM.YYYY in the excel file, first of all you need to change this to dats format ie YYYYMMDD ie character8 format and pass to the bdc, it will automatically convert to sap format
ie you need to convert splitting at .
data lv_date type char10,
        lv_dd type char02,
        lv_mm type char02,
       lv_yyyy type char04,
v_date type char08.
lv_date = '30.12.2011'.
split lv_date at '.' into lv_dd lv_mm lv_yyyy.
if strlen(lv_dd) lt 2.
   concatenate '0' lv_dd into lv_dd.
endif.
if strlen(lv_mm) lt 2.
   concatenate '0' lv_mm into lv_mm.
endif.
concatenate lv_yyyy lv_mm lv_dd into v_date.
"Please use the variable V_DATE to populate to ur bdc"

Date format conversion from MySQL

Hi my dear friends. I have some problem with the date format.
I am using MySQL version 3, LabSQL and Labview7.1
In the MySQL, the date format reads as 2006-12-18 14-51-25
while, when querying in Labview, it reads 18-Dec-06 14-51-25.
So when using this date (18-Dec-06 14-51-25) to query further. I got problems as MySQL does not recognise this format.
How can I convert 18-Dec-06 to 2006-12-18?
It might sound easier to change but for the year how do I change it to proper 2006, not 1906?
Your solution will be helpful. Thanks in advance.

Clement
There probably is a way to do that, but I don't know how. I don't think it is a good idea to change the PC settings in that way because it would interfere with all other programs on the PC. Suppose the user wants the format of date and time to remain the way it is for other programs or looking at file/directory properties.
Rather than basing your functions on the system format settings, use the format string functions within labview that will make the date/time to appear the way you want it to. Look at the format date/time string function on the timing palette. Also, format into string on the string palette.

Conversion from milliseconds to Date in 1.5

A java.util.Date object can be constructed by passing the number of milliseconds since 1 January 1970 as a constructor argument. This Date can then be formatted to a human-readable format with SimpleDateFormat.
I have tested this conversion from milliseconds to a date both in Java SDK 1.4.1 and Java 1.5.0 to see if there are differences in the way dates are calculated from milliseconds. It seems that there are differences when the system timezone is set to Europe/Berlin. The dates from 1.5.0 are one hour ahead of those from 1.4.1 in a certain week in May 1945 and a day in September 1945.
This means that milliseconds that are generated from a date by using the Java 1.4.1 runtime and then stored are interpreted differently when they are retrieved when using java runtime 1.5.0, if they happen to be one of those days in 1945. This could cause discrepancies when an application is migrated to JDK 1.5.0.
This is only a minor problem, but is there any way to know what caused these changes in SDK 1.5.0 and what these changes are? Is there historical data that the Sun implementation is based on to calculate dates from millisecond values?
Any help is appreciated.
Kind regards

I found the following at "http://thedailywtf.com/forums/70146/ShowPost.aspx"
In summer 1945, Berlin and the Soviet-occupied part of Germany observed a daylight savings time of two hours. Unfortunately, Sun's JRE 1.4 implementation of GregorianCalendar defines a maximum DST of one hour and, in non-lenient mode, rejects the 2 hours as invalid when recalculating all fields after the millisecond field is set.
Here's the bug report: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4639407

Conversion from string "20041023 " to type 'Date' is not valid.

Hi ,
I have a table with one of the column(EmpHiredate) datatype is char(10). It has value like "20141023". I need to display this value as date format(dd/mm/yyyy) in report.
Following methods i tried in textbox expression but no luck.

Hi Jmcmullen,
Found one more issue on the same. I have one value like "00000000" for the column(EmpHiredate)
, when i use above expression values(ex:"20141023")
are displaying in dd/MM/yyyy format in report except value like "00000000" and giving following error:

=IIF(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value = "00000000","00000000",Format(CDATE(MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,1,4) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,5,2) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,7,2)),"dd/MM/yyyy"))
Also tried this:
=IIF(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value = "00000000","2000/10/21",Format(CDATE(MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,1,4) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,5,2) + "/" + MID(Fields!EmpHireDate.Value,7,2)),"dd/MM/yyyy"))

I need how to load data from MS Excel(csv format) to NW Excel

Hi,
I am doing Migration project from SAP MS to NW Manually.
I need how to load data from MS excel (csv format) to NW excel .
For example 2008 budget data.
Could you please help me in this.
Thanks and Regards
Krishna

Hi,
You need to create a transformation file and a conversion file if required. First upload the excel (csv) file into BPC using Manage Data and Upload File option.
Create the transformation file (refer to the sap help on how to define a transformation file). You need to specify the mapping correctly and include all your application dimensions and map them to appropriate columns of the flat file.
Before running the import package, do validate the data in the flat file you uploaded into BPC with the transformation file you created.
Thanks,
