Copy FTP files according to modified date and time

Hi all,
I am creating an application where I need to copy the latest file created only from a remote FTP location. So for example, if my remote/ftp location contain some folders and some files, it would list only the file which was modified recently.
Right now, both NLST and LIST commands are giving me full list of folder and files directly, but I need only the file which was recently modified.
Can anyone help me out?

I don't believe so.
Look in vi.lib\addons\internet\ftp\ftp1.llb for the tested and supported LabVIEW FTP raw client functions.
For a list of the defined FTP commands, see this document. Note that the server you are talking to may or may not support the full list.
Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T

How to get last modified date and time of a file which is in apache server.

Hi ,
I need to get last modified date and time of a file in remote machine.
This file is in remote machine which has apache server installed.
I am trying to get this information by connecting to apache server from client by giving absolute URI of the file to file object.
URI is got from apache server URL by using toURI method.
when I use lastModified method , its throwing exception , because scheme of URI is not file.
I can't give scheme as file because ftp server is not installed on that server
Is there any other way to get this information .

No, unless you can use an FTP client.

Reportable Last Modified Date and Time Field

Reportable Last Modified Date and Time Field
Hello,
We need a reportable RequestCenter 'last modified date/time' database field that is refreshed when the 'Comments and History' field is updated. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

Name of the file (in utl_file) with date and time

Instead of the below:
vHandle1 := utl_file.fopen('/home/oracle/testdir', 'test.csv', 'W');
I want something like this:
vHandle1 := utl_file.fopen('/home/oracle/testdir', 'test19dec200611.35.csv', 'W');
i.e the name of the file should have the date and time too so that every time the original is not overwritten.
Is this possible?

OR maybe we can use this:
utl_file.frename('/home/oracle/testdir','test.csv,'/home/oracle/testdir','test'||to_char(sysdate,'DDMONYYYYHH24:MI')||'.csv',TRUE);
Will it work?
Can we download this file and open it through oracle (and not any front end like ASP etc.)

How to find the Last modified date and time of a package

Hi,
We need a clarification on how to find the Last modified date and time of a package in Oracle. We used the example below to explain our scenario,
Lets consider the following example
Let A, B be two packages.
Package A calls the package B. So A is dependent on B.
When A is compiled the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated.
Now there a modification in package B so it is compiled. There is no modification in package A.
Now when the package A is executed the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS gets updated but we did not make any change in Package A. Now we need to find last modified date and time of the package A . So we can not rely on the TIMESTAMP,LAST_DDL_TIME in USER_OBJECTS . Can u please tell us any other solution to get last modified date and time of the package A .
Regards,
Vijayanand.C

Here is an example:
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 2004-05-20:10:57:32 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 VALID
SQL> CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE A AS
2 BEGIN
3 NULL;
4 NULL;
5 END;
6 /
Procedure created.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 10:59:04 2004-05-20:10:59:04 INVALID
SQL> EXEC B
PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
SQL> SELECT OBJECT_NAME,CREATED,LAST_DDL_TIME,TIMESTAMP,STATUS FROM USER_OBJECTS
2 WHERE OBJECT_NAME = ANY('A','B');
OBJECT_NAM CREATED LAST_DDL_TIME TIMESTAMP STATUS
A 20-MAY-2004 10:57:32 20-MAY-2004 11:01:28 2004-05-20:11:01:28 VALID
B 20-MAY-2004 10:58:22 20-MAY-2004 11:01:53 2004-05-20:11:01:53 VALID
Note that the date under the column 'created' only changes when you really create or replace the procedure.
Hence you can use the column 'created' of 'user_objects'.

Automatic file generation using system date and time

Hi guys,
Iam trying to generate a path for file creation automatically using System date and time. I am running into errors with respect to special characters in filename. I am trying to parse the string to get date and time without the '/' and ':' but have not been successful. is there a better way to do it? Please help! I am trying to avoid a dialog box for user to enter a filename.
Thanks!

Get last modified date and time of sharepoint site through Search

Hi All,
I am trying to get the last updated date and time of a sharepoint site using KeywordQuery.
For this I updated an existing list item, added a new item in a site and crawled the content. Then I used "ContentClass:STS_Site" as query in C# code to fetch the search results. I am able to get most of the properties I require for that
site. However "LastModifiedTime" does not return the correct value. It returns an older value.
How can I get the last updated date of a sharepoint site using search ?

Automator- create file names with creation date and time

I have photo files that I want to rename with a base name, plus a sequential number, based on the creation date (and ideally time). It appears that Automator does not honor the time of the source file when date stamping a new set of files. If there is anyway to use date + time so I can recreate a date_timestamp in addition to a base filename, that would be great.

Hi Nikhil_BI_Dev,
According to your description, you find your report runs properly in BIDS but shows blank after deploying onto report server. Right?
In this scenario, it might be the issue on retrieving data in SQL 2005. Here is a thread with same issue, please refer to the link below:

Get File by modified date and extension then copy to location

Hello,
Ill give a brief description of what I am trying to accomplish. We have a bunch of files that are sitting on a deduplication box (Exagrid), we want to try and copy certain files off of this dedup box, however, if we copy EVERYTHING this will fill up our
entire NAS Device. So, instead, I need to build a script that finds files by a modified date and extension type, then copy those to a specified folder.
Here is the code:
$logfile = "C:\CopyResults.log"
function LogWrite{
Param([string]$logstring)
Add-Content $logfile -Value $logstring
$date = get-date
$DateToCompare = (Get-Date).AddDays(-2)
$Files = Get-ChildItem -Recurse | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -gt $DateToCompare} | Where-Object {$_.Extension -eq ".xlsx"}
foreach($File in $Files){
Write-Host "$File was copied to C:\test"
Copy-Item $File C:\test
logWrite "$File was copied to c:\test --- $date"
The file extension is of course just a test, as well as the destination of where these files are to be copied to. Ultimately I would like to build in the functionality that will check the date and delete the files after a certain amount of time has passed and
then copy new files. For now, though, I would be satisfied with just some insight on my own idea and know where I am going wrong or how to clean this up a little better. The overall issue I having is when I run this portion of the script I get this: Copy-Item
: Cannot find path 'C:\Users\<username>\<filename>.xlsx' because it does not exist.
At line:13 char:5
+ Copy-Item $File C:\test
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (C:\Users\<usern...al filename>.xlsx:String) [Copy-Item], ItemNotFoundException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : PathNotFound,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.CopyItemCommand

I solved the issue. Here is the full script:
net use \\netpath\filename /user:<Username> <Password>
$logfile = "C:\CopyResults.log"
function LogWrite{
Param([string]$logstring)
Add-Content $logfile -Value $logstring
$date = get-date
$DateToCompare = (Get-Date).AddDays(-1)
$VBMs = Get-ChildItem \\netpath\filename -Recurse | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -gt $DateToCompare} | Where-Object {$_.Extension -eq ".vbm"}
$VBKs = Get-ChildItem \\netpath\filename -Recurse | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -gt $DateToCompare} | Where-Object {$_.Extension -eq ".vbk"}
$VIBs = Get-ChildItem \\netpath\filename -Recurse | Where-Object {$_.LastWriteTime -gt $DateToCompare} | Where-Object {$_.Extension -eq ".vib"}
foreach($VBM in $VBMs){
Write-Host "$VBM was copied to C:\test"
Copy-Item $VBM.FullName \\netpath\filename
logWrite "$VBM was copied to c:\test --- $date"
foreach($VBK in $VBKs){
Write-Host "$VBK was copied to C:\test"
Copy-Item $VBK.FullName \\netpath\filename
logWrite "$VBK was copied to c:\test --- $date"
foreach($VIB in $VIBs){
Write-Host "$VIB was copied to C:\test"
Copy-Item $VIB.FullName \\netpath\filename
logWrite "$VIB was copied to c:\test --- $date"
"In this case you are handing a System.IO.FileSystemInfo.FileInfo object to the Copy-Item cmdlet. I think the cmdlet is probably defaulting to using the .Name property and that is not enough information for the copy to work. When you explicitly give the
.FullName property to the cmdlet, it now has the information that it needs."
I found this on Stack Overflow buried in the forums and it resolved all my issues. I have tried using that tool and it works very well, however, Powershell is what I am using for everything and I would like to keep it that way.
Thank you all for your time and help.

How can I put current date and time in Photo Info (Print module)?

I often use the Photo Info option in the Print Module to caption my proofs with File Number plus the date and time the print is made. This allows me to match up the print to the History state for the image, so I know which print version I'm looking at. I've always wanted to get Lightroom to automatically enter the date and time the print is made. It obviously knows this info, since it stamps the History state with date and time. Currently I have to modify my caption manually with Custom text each time I make a print. This is a major PITA. Has anyone figured out how to get Lightroom to do this?

There is a Date/Time title in the titles browser, does just what it says...

Hi,
Check the Table: DD02L

DD02L-AS4DATE
other way..
thought you want to know who last changed the contents?
If you're lucky then the table is set for "table logging" in the technical settings (SE11), then you can find out via tx SCU3
Hope this will help you..
