Copy Paste Query Variable

Hi,
(1) Can we copy n paste query variable which is difined using customer exit???
(2) can we change description of the variable only for a particular query? Only for a particular query that description should appear n it should not appear for rest of the queries wherever that variable is used...
Thanks,
Geetanjali

1. You can have only one variable technical names, you can't copy and past it, you have to define another one.
2. And also you can't change the discription of the variable for only one query without affecting the others.
too bad, both are no.
thanks.

Just 'Copy-Paste' local variables

Hi
Is it possible to copy-paste a diagram area containing local variables without creating new objects on the interface ?
Thanks
Gregory
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Use control-drag instead of copy and paste.
Use your mouse to select the item(s) to be copied.
Hold down the control (Ctrl) key and drag the item(s) to the new location.
If you also hold the Shift key down during the move - the items stay aligned.
To move the item(s) to another diagram you don't even have to hold the shift key down.

Run-Time Error '6' Overflow within BEx Analyzer after copy/paste query

Hi all,
User is getting a "Run-time error '6' overflow" message which is caused after copying any query in a 'query pack' to any free row/column within the same sheet (BEx Analyzer). This "query pack" has multiple queries within one sheet and covers 1800 rows so there is enough free space left for copying one of the queries to another position in the same sheet.
Microsoft Office Excel SP2 is used which is part of MS Office professional edition 2003. The BW version is 3.0.
Please let me know if more details are required or above mentioned error message is recognized and can be explained.
Thanks and kind regards,
Raymond Flaton

Hi VRV,
This error is caused whenever there is memory issue. If your query is built on a cube which has a BWA index then this problem can be related to the issue with the BWA server. Check your BASIS team to check if there is memory issue presently in the BWA server.
Sometimes the issue is temporary, where the several users accesing the reports to fetch data from BWA lead to this type of error as the BWA gets overloaded. Try exiting the report and run it after some time again.
Alternatively you can also try restricitng the selection for fetching the data in the report as suggested.
Thanks

Copy-paste values from excel sheet into variable screen of SAP BI 7.0 query

Hello
Report has selection by material in the variable screen. Users would like to to run a report for a set of materials (100+ items). He wants to copy-paste materials into material variable to avoid manual entry.
I know its impossible. Are thee any ways to allow user not to enter this materials manually and run the report.
Set of materials can change over the time.
Thanks

Hi,
You might want to try with a text file (.txt).. place all the 100+ values into a text file.. like the notepad.. make sure you have only one column with all these number.. no headers or no blank spaces in the beginning..
then, in the variable (variable should have been defined as "select options" or "multiple single values"), if you can go the screen where we can make multiple entries, we will have an option to import from a file.. and select the text file you have created above.. then all the 100+ values will be imported..
we do this all the time..

Ipad 1st gen. Safari cannot open page because address is invalid. I get this trying to download apps from itunes, infact it will do this under any variable. I have tried copy paste in url but it doesn't matter what i try, safari doesnt allow anyway i try. I have searched answers to this but to no avail.
Leigh

Hi Demo,
Yes, I have not made myself clear, I apologise.
I have tried downloading apps from itunes in order to set up a game for my son, when I go to click on a link, be this in itunes, or on the web, Safari revolts back informing the address is invalid. I read by coping a link and pasting into the URL, this would do it, but not so.
My goal then, is to install Minecraft for my son, I would then download an app to allow this but I am unable to get this far due to Safari insulting the address I ask it to go to
The iPad is first generation
OS 5.1.1 Software up to date.
Thank you in advance for your time

IWORK 09-NUMBERS -HOW TO COPY AND PASTE A VARIABLE TO CELLS IN OTHER SHEETS

IN EXCEL I USED COPY IN THE CEL WITH THE VARIABLE AND THEN" PASTE SPECIAL" IN THE OTHER CELLS.WHEN CHANGING THE VARIABLE ALL THE OTHER CELLS TOOK OVER THIS VALUE AND USED IT IN FORMULAS.
IS THERE ANY METHOD IN NUMBERS TO DO THE SAME ?

This thread provides an excellent example of the need to clarify the question before jumping in with an answer.
There's also some misinformation in the post quoted below. The rest of this post addresses ONLY the specific post below, NOT the original question.
Hwoodwriter wrote:
This is annoying. A work around I found is to make the cells absolute so that the referenced cells do not move when you paste.
I don't see this as a 'workaround,' but as the manner in which Copy Paste is designed to work. If you Cell addresses are considered as 'cell locations relative to the current cell' unless the reference is specified as being an absolute address. If you want to Copy & Paste a formula to a different cell and have the pasted formula use the same referenced cells as the original, you can select and copy the formula from the Formula Bar at the top. This copies the formula as text, which remains the same wherever you paste it.
So if your formula refers to cell B1+B2 and you copy it and paste one cell down your formula then reads C1+C2. To keep your formula always pointed to B1 and B2 it needs to be absolute. $B$1+$B$2. This way you can copy and paste your formula without changing the reference points.
Actually if you copy the cell containing =B1+B2, then paste it one cell right, the formula in the new cell will be =C1+C2.
if you copy the cell containing =B1+B2, then paste it one cell down, the formula in the new cell will be =B2+B3.
Once copied and pasted you can go to the formula bar at the top highlight the cell reference and simply click on the cell you want referenced.
$B$1+$B$2 highlight a cell reference then click on new cell to make formula read $B$1+C2 then change C2 to be absolute if you want.
You will see a small arrow drop down when you cross the cell reference on the right side to change absolute or relative values. Time consuming and frustrating I know.
Time consuming, yes. But what's consuming the time is translating the vertical movement (down) of the formula to a horizontal movement (right- from B2 to C2) of the formula's cell reference. Relative cell references move the reference in the same direction as the formula is moved.

Barry

Variable of copied Query changes the original Query - variable

Team:
I have a Query "A". Then, I made a copy "B". Both Queries are the same definition, including the variables. In the Query A, there is a variable "ZWWW" that checks the date entered by the user. In the user exit I_step = 3, we check for the validity of the date entered. Unfortunately, we need to test the Query in QAS, which we do not need to test the validity of the data. Thus, we changed the variable to be "YYYYY" on the Query B.
Unfortunately, this new variable "YYYY" somehow is reflected automatically in the original Query A. This issue is only present if the Query B is a copy of Query A. Basically, the Query A and B have different technical names and UIDs. However, they are in the background related.
The question is: how can I change the variable on Query B without affecting Query A.

Hi Raul,
Variables are at
Query Filter Level
RKF Level..which is Global
What i understand is that this Variable of Query is in the RKF - which is GLOBAL.So if we change the RKF Variable on that Multiprovider... for not just Query A... ...it will change across all the Queries not just Query A or B.
We will have to identify the RKF1 and create a copy of the RKF1 as New RKF2 and replace the old Variable with the New One YYYY.
Hope this Clarifies.

Having Trouble Copy and Pasteing Local Variable in LabVIEW 2010

I am Having Trouble Copy and Pasteing Local Variable in LabVIEW 2010 in s subVI.
I have a VI that has a Local Variable called "Node Addr". I can select it OK, and it appears to Copy OK, But when I go to paste it, nothing appears. It doesn't matter if I use Cntrl-C Cntrl-V or the Copy and Paste from the Edit menu, I get the same results. I tried many times and got the same results. I made sure that I had click a paste location. I can insert the Local Variable if I use the Data Communication panel.
On one of the Paste, I got an error in the error list that said that a Local Variable was not connected to anything. When I clicked on the error, it took me to an insible item in the lower right corner of the block diagram that had nothing but a select box around it. I couldn't select the invisible item, but I could delete it.
Why does the copy and paste of this local variable not work?
Why does the paste cause the insertion of an invisible item?

dbaechtel wrote:
My VI is fairly complicated. In several places in the VI, I am either reading or writing to this variable which is an numeric Indicator on the Front Panel. Using local variables seems to be the best way to handle this situation rather that using wiring all over the VI. Since the VI is mainly a State Machine and there are only 2 Writes to the local variable, I am not afraid of race conditions in this case. NO!! While you may think that using Locals is your solution to wiring, it is not! The fact that you are writing and reading, most likely from several places, will most definitely contribute to a race condition. Depending on your implemetation, you should ALWAYS use wires. The wires are the variable. If you are using a loop (While, For), then using shift registers are appropriate means for routing values so that they are used by other sections of the code, later. One thing you must respect with LabVIEW is the dataflow. That's where Locals often fail.
I am not copying the Local Variable from one VI to another.
I am not copying the Local Variable from one VI to another.
The Data Communication panel is one of the panels that shows up in the Functions pop up list when editing the Block Diagram. It is the panel that includes the Local Variable function.
I don't know if the invisible item that was inserted in my block diagram was hidden or not. All I know is that the Errors List said that it was a Local Variable and that it was not connected to anything. I couldn't select it to get more information. All I could do was delete it.
You did not address my questions about why the Copy and Paste does not work properly for my Local Variable. Maybe it's a sign from the Software Gods not to use them LOL!..
So if I understand correctly, you are trying to copy & paste the Local Variable from within the same VI. How large is your block diagram? Did you try right-click on the variable and select "Find > Local Variables"? If it's a block diagram larger than 1 single screen (which it shouldn't), then it is possible that the Local is hiding beyond the screen. You should find it as I described earlier.
See my comments in red above.

Copy and Paste Query

Does anyone know how to copy a query from one infocube to another? I tried trans code RSZC but it did not work as I anticipated.
As always, thank you in advance for your help!

Hi Shelly,
RSZC will only work if the cube that you are copying the query to (target) has all the InfoObjects (chars and KF and Nav Attr) of the cube from which you are copying the query (source). This is required even if all of these are not being used in the query. When you try using RSZC, the system will point out what is different...if it is something just like nav attr then you can easily maintain that in the target cube for the sake of copying the query, but with missing chars or KF this may not be possible to do...in that case you will just have to recreate the query.
Another option is to create a multiprovider based on both these cubes, copy the query from Sourec cube to Multiprovider, remove the source cube from the multiptovider, and then copy the query from multprovider to the target cube.
Hope this helps...

Pdf creation: filename copy/paste does not work

Hi!
There seems to be a bug in OSX 10.4 - when printing a document and saving it as a pdf-document you get asked for the filename. At OS X 10.3 you could simply paste in the filename - with OSX 10.4 there is no copy paste possible even if there is a correct name in the clipboard.
I tried it on different macs. I really would need this function. Please fix this bug. It worked before.
Thanks! Alex

I'm not on my Mac to test this, but have you tried using Command+V to paste? It isn't unusual to not be able to access menus & toolbars while certain dialogs have the focus. I honestly can't remember back to 10.3, but if there has been a change it was most likely on purpose, not a bug... although I acknowledge that the definition of "bug" is both variable as well as subjective

Copy/paste full row, full column, a cell on datagrid using MVVM?

What is the best way to implement on datagrid? As I am new on this, I had some researches but I am confused because there are some complicated implementations and easy ones? I try to understand the best way.
Adding simply selection mode and selection Unit doesnt help. Because it only copies the row but I cant paste it simply as a new row.
SelectionMode="Extended" SelectionUnit="FullRow" >
this approach in the article looks old to me. Not sure if there is anything new and much easier with newest framework. I am using MVVM light in my project.
Attached is the sample project similar to my original project. can you please recommend me the best way for the following?
- Full Row(s) copy-paste
-1 or multiple columns copy-paste (optional)
- cell copy-paste

Copy paste in the application(from file to database)

Hi!
Is it possible to provide a 'copy-paste' functionality in end-user app? I know there is such feature in SQL Workshop but I would like to prepare an application which enables users to copy data from fxls/csv file and the paste it into the application. The data should be saved then in the relevant table in database.
Regards,
Tom

Are you talking about importing data into an existing table where the column data type
needs to match the column data type in your table? Preferably a comma or semicolon
separated or tab delimited data.
If this is so, then there is a simple way to acomplish this using external tables as an
interface. There you need access to your underlying file system. You could do this in
the following way:
1. Create a text area and paste some data in it,
2. Copy that data into a BFILE on your file system,
3. Create an external table which will read the created file
4. Query your external table, validate the data and transfer it into your target table.
This is, of course a simple way - you know the structure of your data in advance.
You could also do it the way ApEx does it - providing an interface for more then one
case and letting user create their own tables, load from file, load from xml file, etc.
However, this would require much more time to make it working.
Unfortunatelly, there is no access to file system on htmldb.oracle.com for me to
show you how this could be done. I have a description on how to handle this problem
here:

This may help you to start with.

Copy / Paste malfunctioning in Cp5 for Windows

Hi,
I have a situation of creating eCourses that involve a lot of standardized wording. I often want to copy and paste text from a previous slide into a later slide (or page - whatever) in the same project. For example "Click forward to proceed and learn about... etc." It is easiest for me to copy and paste the text since this action retains the same color and styling, rather than retyping the text and reapplying the styling. However, I often have trouble with this. Here are the variable issues:
- It will not copy what I wanted and when I go to paste, it pastes whatever was on my clipboard previously.
- It will copy the entire contents of a textbox instead of just the text I selected to copy from that textbox.
I have tried selecting Copy / Paste from the Edit menu, and of course I have tried Crtl-C / Ctrl-V. Both commands function sporadically.
Is this a known bug, or am I the only one having this issue? I have confirmed the problem many times by simply trying to do the same action twice, finding that the software repeats the bad behavior.
Here is an example. I select the area below to copy (Click forward to proceed), but it will either not copy it at all or copy ALL the text in the textbox, including the portion I selected.
thanks

Hi,
I have found out the cause for the issue: before you install 1.4.1_01.exe you must deinstall all JRE's on your computer (1.3.XX, 1.4.0.XX) than works that well the Copy/Paste.
that is confusingly because we don't have to make that in JRE 1.4.0.
Best regards

Copy BW query results with formatting

When copying a query's results to another workbook, the formatting (namely coloring) changes. Is there any way to copy the query results to a new workbook and keep the exact same formatting as in original query?

One way to do this would be to copy the worksheet with the results to the other workbook, as follows:
Edit --> Move or copy sheet... --> change "To book:" to the 2nd workbook --> check "Create a copy" option --> OK
After doing that, you can cut & paste from the copied worksheet to other worksheets in the workbook, if necessary, and the formatting will be maintained.
Hope this helps...

30EA1: Copy/Paste oddity in table/index overview

Hello out there,
I stumbled upon a strange behavior when trying to copy an index name for use in the worksheet.
When I click on a table in the treeview, then select the index tab and click on the index name it seems that the focus does not stay in this field. I click another time into the field to mark it.
Now I press CTRL-C to copy the index name in order to paste it into the worksheet. But instead of copying the index name into the clipboard, the in-place editor is started.
I observed this behavior on WindowsXP (with the bundled JDK) and SuseLinux (with the distributor provided JDK, downloaded the JDK-less zip not the RPM).
Regards,
dhalek

Hi,
I found this oddity too and have posted it in
3.0.02.37 EA1: Query Builder Performance With Large Schema?
However, Raghu, one of the SQL Dev team, only noted the loosen focus on the grid and is trying to fix it.
The "copy paste" behaviour here seems to get its way into all master detail grid on the object viewer.
For the time being, you may want to use Popup Describe (Shift + F4) instead of the buggy object viewer.
