Copy comments in NW?

Has anyone found a way to copy comments in Netweaver? I believe in the microsoft version, to copy comments, you had to get your sql server dba to comment the appropriate table entries.
Is there a standard way to copy comments in the NW version?
Thanks.

Hi Amy-
Some ideas you might want to consider....
For a start, you would need to be able to find the comments...the naming convention for the dynamic comment table is:
/1CPMB/application_set_prefixapplication_prefixCMT
The two character application_set_prefix can be identified from the table UJA_APPSET_INFO, and the two character application_prefix can be identified from the UJA_APPL table.
Once the comment table is identified you might be able to create a custom Badi or create a custom process chain to copy these comments to another appset/application.
There is no delivered function in BPC that allows you to copy comments directly. There is "Clear Comment" process chain which might be helpful in designing a new process type to create a "Copy Comment" process chain.

Sheldon Edelstein

Copying a table with the right-click menu in schema browser fails to copy comments when string has single quote(s) (ascii chr(39))

Hi,
I'm running 32-bit version of SQL Developer v. 3.2.20.09 build 09.87, and I used the built in context menu (right-clicking from the schema browser) today to copy a table. However, none of the comments copied. When I dug into the PL/SQL that the menu-item is using, I realized that it fails because it doesn't handle single quotes within the comment string.
For example, I have a table named WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT that I wanted to copy as WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 (within same schema name)
1. I right-clicked on the object in the schema browser and selected Table > Copy...
2. In the pop-up Copy window, I entered the new table name "WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1" and ticked the box for "Include Data" option. -- The PL/SQL that the menu-command is using is in the "SQL" tab of this window. This is what I extracted later for testing the issue after the comments did not copy.
Result: Table and data copied as-expected, but no column or table comments existed.
I examined the PL/SQL block that the pop-up window issued, and saw this:
declare
l_sql varchar2(32767);
c_tab_comment varchar2(32767);
procedure run(p_sql varchar2) as
begin
     execute immediate p_sql;
end;
begin
run('create table "BI_ETL".WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 as select * from "BI_ETL"."WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT" where '||11||' = 11');
select comments into c_tab_comment from sys.all_TAB_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and comments is not null;
run('comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '||''''||c_tab_comment||'''');
for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
    loop
   for c in (select comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
   loop
   run ('comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''');
end loop;
end loop;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
end;
The string of the table comment on WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT is this:
WBIG table of frozen, point-in-time snapshots of Enrolled Students by Category/term/pidm. "Category" is historically, and commonly, our CENSUS snapshot; but, can also describe other frequencies, or categorizations, such as: End-of-Term (EOT), etc. Note: Prior to this table existing, Census-snapshots were stored in SATURN.SNAPREG_ALL. All FALL and SPRING term records prior-to-and-including Spring 2013 ('201230') have been migrated into this table -- EXCEPT a few select prior to Fall 2004 (200410) records where there are duplicates on term/pidm. NO Summer snapshots existed in SNAPREG_ALL, but were queried and stored retroactively (including terms prior to Spring 2013) for the purpose of future on-going year-over-year analysis and comparison.
Note the single quotes in the comment: ... ('201230')
So, in the above PL/SQL line 11 grabs this string into "c_tab_comment", but then line 12 fails because of the single quotes. It doesn't know how to end the string because the single quotes in the string are not "escaped", and this messes up the concatenation on line 12. (So, then no other column comments are created either because the block throws an error, and goes to line 22 for the exception and exits.)
When I modify the above PL/SQL as my own anonymous block like this, it is successful:
declare
c_tab_comment VARCHAR2(32767);
begin
SELECT REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) INTO c_tab_comment FROM sys.all_TAB_comments WHERE owner = 'BI_ETL'   AND table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' AND comments IS NOT NULL;
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on table BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1 is '''||c_tab_comment||'''';
for tc in (select column_name from sys.all_tab_cols where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT')
    loop
   for c in (select REPLACE(comments,chr(39),chr(39)||chr(39)) comments from sys.all_col_comments where owner = 'BI_ETL' and table_name = 'WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT' and column_name=tc.column_name)
   loop
   EXECUTE IMMEDIATE 'comment on column BI_ETL.WE_ENROLL_SNAPSHOT_V1.'||tc.column_name||' is '||''''||c.comments||'''';
end loop;
end loop;
EXCEPTION
WHEN OTHERS THEN NULL;
end;
On lines 4 and 8 I wrapped the "comments" from sys.all_tab_comments and sys.all_col_comments with a replace command finding every chr(39) and replacing with chr(39)||chr(39). (On line 8 I also had to alias the wrapped column as "comments" so line 10 would succeed.)
Is this an issue with SQL Developer? Is there any chance that the menu-items can handle single quotes in comment strings? ... And, of course this makes me wonder which other context menu commands in the tool might have a similar issue.
Thoughts?
thanks//jacob

I know about quick drop, but it isn't helpful here. I want to be able to right click on a string or array wire, navigate to the string or array palette, and select the corresponding "Empty?" comparator. In this case, since I do actually know where those functions live, and I'm already using my mouse to right click on the wire, typing ctrl-space to open quick drop and then typing in the function name is actually more work than navigating to it in the palette. It would just be nice to have it on hand in the location I naturally go to look for it the first time.
I don't agree with this work flow. Right hand on mouse, left hand on home keys. Pressing CTRL + Space is done with the left hands, and then you could assign "ea" to "Empty Array" both of which is accessible with the left hand. Darren posted a bunch of great shortcuts for the right handed developer.

This is much faster than waiting for any right click menu navigation, even if it is found in the suggested subpalette.

Copy comments when doing data copy

Hello,
we have a copy function in IP that copies data from version to version.
At the same time we have flagged 0VERSION as a Document attribute characteristic.
What we need is that when we copy data from version A to version B, all the comments entered in version A are also copied to version B.
Thanks for your help.

Copying comments

I'm a freelance proofreader and have been asked by one of my employers to use the comments facility to mark up a manuscript. I'm using Adobe X. As I have to use standard BSI proofing symbols, I've used the pencil to create the marks required. In order to use them throughout the manuscript, I've simply used copy and paste rather than having to 'draw' them out each time. So far so good.
But, when I do my next project, I would like to use the same marks that I've already created rather than having to draw new ones for each new job. And it would seem that I can't copy and paste between pdfs.
Can anyone help? This would be a big time-saver for me.
Many thanks,
Higgsy

I'm not exactly sure what kind of symbols these are, but maybe you should
consider using stamps. You can create your own stamps fairly easily and
then apply them to multiple files. The only issue could be if these symbols
need to change in size according to the length of the text you're marking
up, but manually changing the size of the stamps could be a solution for
that as well.

Copying Comments from Outgoing Payments form to its checks for payment

Hi!, is there a way to pass the comments from the Outgoing Payments to the comments of the check for payment of the same outgoing payment?
We want to see in the checks for payments comments field, the same comment from the outgoing payment which the check was originated.
Thank you!

If you are talking about bringing the Outgoing Payment comments to the Check Journal Remarks field, you could do it using a formatted search. Save the following SQL and link the query to the Journal Remarks field
SELECT T0.Comments FROM [dbo].[OVPM] T0 WHERE T0.DocNum = $[OCHO.TransRef]

Copying Comments/Attachments/Bookmarks

Hello,
I am writing user manuals for a company. I convert these in to .pdf's and then add comments, attachments and bookmarks to the .pdf.
The problem is that the manuals get updated quite regularly, so everytime I change a manual I have to create a new .pdf thus having to create the comments/attachments/bookmarks again.
This was OK at the start, but there's so much to go in now, I'm wasting alot of time.
Any ideas?
Cheers.

Use FrameMaker's PDF Setup dialog to select paragraph tags that are to become PDF Bookmarks. Establish the desired Bookmark level there.
Tick "Generate PDF Bookmarks". An output PDF will have Bookmarks present that reflect your configuration in the PDF Setup dialog of FM.
As mentioned, Acrobat is required for manipulation of the output PDFs.
Just my observation but, providing PDF from FrameMaker without Acrobat Pro installed is far from an optimal work environment/work flow.
Invariably the output PDF(s) will be in need of, at a minimum, some polish and buff. Often, such as in your situation, more is needed.
You want Acrobat Pro for that.
Be well...

How to copy a files spotlight comments for an entire folder and place them in a different file with that same name

I have the same question in a different discussion but I already marked it as solved because one of the questions was answered. Here's the linke to the other discussion if your interested https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5970421
I have movie covers saved as a jpeg for every movie my family and I own. There is about 700 and they each have a comment of the main actors, release dates, and descriptions. This makes it easy to find what to watch.Is there an applescript, automator, program I can download, or program code supported in xcode that will do the following set of inscructions?
Take the name of the picture file and spotlight comment, copy and paste it to a movie file's comments to a file with the same name but obviously has different extention. For an example
In a Pictures folder
Name: Dark Knight, The.jpeg       Comment: (2008) Genre: Action...             <- copy comment
In a Movie Folder
Name: Dark Knight, The.m4v       Comment:                                               <- paste
and do this for all 700 files

Clendenen02 wrote:
where should I run the code? in the terminal, or an applescript, or should put it in xcode and run it from there or the terminal.
What MrHoffman said.
But if it's easier, you can wrap it in Automator and have Automator ask for the Folders: (Test on a sample of your files before running on all 700 files)
(do you really own 700 movies??)
The Workflow is:
Put this in the Run Shell Script Action (and pass input as arguments":
PicDir=$1
MovDir=$2
for f in $PicDir/*
do
     if [ ! -d "$f" -a "${f##*.}" = "jpeg" ]; then
          comment=$(mdls -raw -name kMDItemFinderComment "$f")
          if [[ $comment != "(null)" ]]; then
               picname=${f##*/}
               movname=${picname%.*}.m4v
               if [[ -e "$MovDir"/$movname ]]; then
osascript <<-EOF
tell application "Finder"
set comment of file (POSIX file "$MovDir/$movname") to "$comment"
end tell
EOF
               fi
          fi
     fi
done
(BTW, I know that this is a bit of sloppy scripting (wraping an osascript in a Bash Script wrapped in Automator, but it does what you need)

How to copy a files name and spotlight comments to a text file for an entire folder

I have movie covers saved as a jpeg for every movie my family and I own. There is about 700 and they each have a comment of the main actors, release dates, and descriptions. This makes it easy to find what to watch. I want my parents to have all of this info but they have a windows laptop so the comments don't transfer with the file and can't be searched like you can on a mac. Is there an applescript, automator, program I can download, or program code supported in xcode that will do at least one of the following things?
1)Take the name of the picture file and spotlight comment, copy and paste it into a text document like word that looks like this...
File Name1- Spotlight Comment for file 1
File Name 2- Spotlight Comment for file 2
. for all 700 files in a folder
2) It would be equally helpful if there was something that would take the name of the picture file and spotlight comment, copy and paste it to a movie file's comments with the same name but obviously has different extention. For an example
In a Pictures folder
Name: Dark Knight, The.jpeg       Comment: (2008) Genre: Action...             <- copy comment
In a Movie Folder
Name: Dark Knight, The.m4v       Comment:                                               <- paste
and do this for all 700 files
3) Is there a free photo program that works on mac and windows that I can put all my movie pictures in and have a description like I did with the comments? It would also need a place that to search the description for keywords. So Basically an itunes for pictures that works on both mac and windows. If so I still need a way to get the spotlight comments to the description.
4) I feel like this would make things more difficult, but if not I can put all of the .m4v files in itunes so instead of pasting all the comments back into a file in finder paste them in a description in itunes
5) At the very least a code that I can run one by one for every file that will paste the comments into the same document
Note: When I say spotlight comments I mean the comment box that is available when you click on get info of a file. The pictures are in the pictures section of finder in a folder called Movie Pictures. The movie files are on an external hard-drive in a file called Movies. Also I am slightly familiar with applescript and automater in that I have used both to create keyboard shortcuts and simple voice commands. I have programmed in c++ and C too. So If you give me a code for applescript I do know what to do with it.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read all of this and extra thanks to anyone who tries to help.

Script to change photo caption in iWeb to iPhoto comment text

Hi,
Does any body know, how I could automatic replace the caption of the photos I have imported from iPhoto with the Media Browser to iWeb with the comment text I have in iPhoto for every photo?
It should be just a script, which gets told the album and the looks for the file name which is in the caption, reads the comment for the photo in iPhoto and then puts replaces the caption with it in iWeb, then the next photo ...
I'm not good in scripting.;-(
Thanks and Regards,
JO

Ok, here my script, what I'm using now to copy the comment to the title in iPhoto before importing the photos to iWeb:
try
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
copy (my selected_images()) to these_images
if these_images is false then ¬
error "Please select the images."
display dialog "Copy comment to title for the selected photos?"
set the image_count to the count of these_images
display dialog "Processing " & (the image_count as string) & " photos." & return & return & "This will take a moment..." buttons {"•"} default button 1 giving up after 2
repeat with i from 1 to the image_count
set this_photo to item i of these_images
tell this_photo
set the title to the comment of this_photo
end tell
end repeat
end tell
on error error_message number error_number
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
if the error_number is not -128 then
display dialog error_message buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end if
end tell
end try
on selected_images()
tell application "iPhoto"
try
-- get selection
set these_items to the selection
-- check for single album selected
if the class of item 1 of these_items is album then error
-- return the list of selected photos
return these_items
on error
return false
end try
end tell

Import from Erwin 7.3 Puts Column Comments in wrong section

There is a bug with the import for Erwin. Column comments are not put into the RDBMS Comments section, they are put in the regular comments section therefore when exported to DDL they do not get put in the database. We want the comments in the database and in Erwin there is only one section for comments. Anybody know a way around this? Or can it be fixed in the next release?

Hi,
there is a transformation that can be used for that - look at "Tools>Design rules>Transformations" - it's named "Copy comments to comments in RDBMS".

How do you import Comment data

Hi folks
Is there a way to import bulk amount of comment data to it's corresponding table (tech name : /1CPMB/* )
If so, could you please provide me any kind of technical tips or related document.
Thanks in advance.
-Tae

No, I wasn't talking about copying comments from one version to another within application.
I have mentioned importing comment data to it's corresponding text table starting with a tech. name /1CPMB/...
Just like importing transaction data with using 'import transaction data' package which uploads the data from the
CSV file.
We have a situation where we need to import actual transaction data and comments at the same time
in order to let our end users to explore the trans. and comment data in a single
BPC custome made template.
Thanks.

Managing comments from BW

Hello everybody,
Got a problem when trying to copy comments from a version to another with a BW ABAP program.
The error message say:
"Managing comment is not allowed; you are not authorized to this task "
the method I am using is
CL_UJC_CMTMANAGER -> ADD_CMTS_FAST
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot.
Emiliano

I ended up just copying the standard code (I have access to the code but can't use it no idea why) without the security checks in my own functions and it works...
So guess the problem was about rights for use the class and not to write in the table.
Thanks everybody a lot

Hi,
Are you talking about the NW version? I guess you should have posted it in the BPC NW forum.
By the way, for the download, you need to go to
software download -> support packages and patches -> SAP Application Components -> SAP BPC FOR SAP NETWEAVER -> SBOP PC 7.5 FOR SAP NW -> SAP CPM BPC ABAP 7.5
You should be able to see it there.
Hope this helps.
