Default starting point for a search? Stopping a Finder Search?

"Command F" brings up a search window, defaulted to "This Mac". All too often, I forget to switch the search to my intended target before entering the search criteria. I've got several TB of storage on line, so a "This Mac" Search can take a l-o-n-g time. I can't find a way to stop this search once it's started. Is there a way to set a preference for Find to default to the selected item (disk, folder, or whatever) rather than the whole computer? Am I missing a "cancel" button somewhere?
Peri

Backspacing or deleting the search criteria does not work. Once the beach-ball cursor starts spinning, nothing I do has any effect until the search is complete - which may be several minutes.
On 10.4, there was is an "x" at the lower righthand corner of the search window (next to the search indicator), which would cancel the search. There is no "x" on 10.5.
Saving a search might be an answer if I repeated the same search frequently, but I don't. Also, I'd have to remember to use the sidebar. If I could remember that, I'd probably could also remember to change the starting point for the search.

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

How to Set A Default Start Time For New Events In Calendar?

John,
Thanks for that suggestion - could not get it to work. However, I did manage a different approach. I finally determined the sequence of events in terms of how the various events and listeners fire (I think).
Basically, the CalendarActivityListener fires, followed by the listener associated with the Calendar object's Create facet, followed finally by the CalendarEventListener - the final is where the TriggerEvent is available and then finally, control is passed to the popup/dialog in the Create facet. So, my approach of trying to set/get the TriggerDate in the user's HTTP session was doomed to failure because it was being get before it had been set :(
Anyway, I ended up adding a bit of code to the CalendarEvent listener - it grabs the current BindingContext, navigates through the DCBindingContainer to derive an Iterator for the ViewObject which drives the calendar and then grabs the currently active row. I then do a few tests to make sure we're working with a "new" row because I don't want to alter start & end dates associated with an existing calendar entry and then I define the Start and End dates to be the Trigger Date.
Works just fine. Snippet from the listener follows
BindingContext bindingContext = BindingContext.getCurrent();+
*if ( bindingContext != null ) {*+
DCBindingContainer dcBindings = (DCBindingContainer) bindingContext.getCurrentBindingsEntry();+
DCIteratorBinding iterator = dcBindings.findIteratorBinding("EventsView1Iterator");+
Row currentRow = iterator.getCurrentRow();+
if ( currentRow.getAttribute("StartDate") == null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("StartDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
if (currentRow.getAttribute("EndDate")==null)+
currentRow.setAttribute("EndDate", calendarEvent.getTriggerDate());+
*}*

Starting Point for GSS

We are going to deploy GSS in a DC-DR scenario. Primary role for this GSS would be for failover when DC becomes unavailable. As of now, we are not planning to make these GSSes as an authorative servers for Domain names.
My question is How GSS should be configured. I've gone through pdfs explainng how GSS works and KAP-AL with other GSS, ACE etc. However, I am not able to completely understand about its IP addressing, physical connectivity (most likely, this would be outside firewall) and more details about GSS-ACE deployment. We are going to have ACE appliances in Primary DC as well. There will be no ACE appliance in DR.
Any guidance about starting point for GSS deployment would be helpful. I was also looking for questions to be asked for client requirement gathering.
THanks in advance. Happy 2012 !

just google :)

Custom starting point for song?

I'm wondering if it's possible to set a custom starting point for a song, similar to the way that the end point can be set:
I find that I have to start my song about two measures in (I tend to need more time than the Count In setting allows), but when I go to share the song, I don't want those first two measures. Short of highlighting all tracks and dragging them left when I'm done, is there another way to set a custom start?
Thanks!
Andrew

Any Info on Default Start Variant for VF04.
Regards,

Dear Manisha,
Default Start Variant for VF04
There are two types of variant in VF04.
One is the selection variant before clicking the Display Billing List Button.
You can set the start variant via SE93 using the Change mode.
The second variant is the Billing Layout display variant.
This is after clicking the Display Billing List Button.
After creating your layout display variant, you can set it by clicking :-
Settings ->
          Display Variant
                            -> Administration
Select the layout display variant you want and click :-
Edit ->

Starting point for learning Netweaver

Hello All,
I'm absolutely new to SAP world and also to Netwearver. I'm a Java/J2EE developer with a little bit exposer to SOA. Recently I got a thought of learning SAP and considering my development background and intention of making career towards SOA, thought of learning Netweaver and the first link in google directed me to this forum. I may be violating the basic rules of the forum, but trust me I searched for Netweaver and was dumped with lots of information, which is too confusing and anti productive.
Can some one guide me in understanding the learning process, pre-requisites in terms of knowledge and software for Netweaver? What is the starting point of this?
Thanks
Ravi C.Kota

Hi ,
Basically your from Programming. ,in SAP you can Opt for Developement side ie..,Sap ABAP.
1) At first you can have a look to Architecture.
2)Next you can learn basic things like..reports,ALV'S,BDC,Dialog programming,Object oriented programming(oops),Repository etc
Thanks,

Help with starting point for "proof of concept" integration

We are a third party application provider and are attempting to figure out how to do a "proof of concept" integration with SAP. We are not looking for "certification". Our product does not appear to fit any of the standard certifications for integration and our experience integrating with other systems indicates that no two integration will be identical.
We are looking to do a simple integration scenario with an SAP system so we have some basic experience doing it, can say 'Yes" when asked if we have done it, and can create a video showing a transaction being done in SAP and our system also updating (and ideally the reverse).
Our starting point with respect to SAP knowledge is "0".
Our basic task list (we think) goes something like
1. Figure out the version and modules of SAP with which we should be integrating
2. Get access to an SAP system (do we rent, is there a developer/evaluation, ...)
3. Put some data in the test system (is there a "sample data" set?)
4. Figure out the SAP transactions that map to the business process in which we are interested (moving goods in and out of a distribution center/ware house - are there some "standard business process guides")
5. Integrate (we are a .NET web based application so we are guessing this means use the ".Net Connector")
Could anyone point out any resources (white papers, links, people, places to find people,...) that might be a good starting point?
Thanks,
John

Athol,
We are looking to recieve notifications out of SAP as tractor trailers at a dock are filled as proof on concept. The actual integration scenarios we do are more complex and do not match well with any of the pre-packaged certification scenarios. The real world integration scenarios actual vary substantially from customer to customer in terms of the integration points between systems.
As we have become more marginally knowledgable about SAP, I think we will end up receiving and sending "IDOC" messages from SAP but have no idea what those IDOC messages are or where to start looking for what a "standard" (if there is one) message SAP would generate in reaction to whatever the "trailer is loaded" transaction is.
To figure out what the transaction is, I assume we need to identify what version of SAP we should be targeting for a simple integration. Are there any could references on what the commonly integration methods are and to which versions they apply?
Something like "hey, if you do an integration with a IDOCs in with SAP Netweaver 2004 then that would good proof you could integrate with 90% of the installed SAP base". Of course, any links explaining what the versions of SAP are and where they are in there lifecycle and what people are actually using would be helpful.

Newbie! Start Point for Model

I would like to make the Start Point to my Model from a User Id from R/3 (ESS)
So for example I would like to display the Communications Infotype and display everything listed against the User Id. I found the BAPI and can output the Data. Not sure how to configure the User Id.
Help!
Thanks

Hi Stuart,
you get the user ID via user component in VC (portal user) and the for the user of your backend you can write a simple ABAP RFC function module, which returns the user from the syst structure (sy-uname). Hope that helps.

A starting point for pipemenus in Openbox

Does anybody know of a good "hello world" pipemenu written in python or bash? I'd like to get started with making my own pipemenus, but I'm having a hard time looking though some of the pipemenus on the Openbox website. I just need a nice clean one to look at for a starting point. Thanks.

Hi kiwisaotome,
The idea is to make a script that creates an xml form at the time when it is called, which the openbox menu can use. It's fairly easy. Here is an example that I use. I don't remember where I got it from:
#!/bin/bash
FREQ=`cpufreq-info -p | awk '{print $3}'`
echo '<openbox_pipe_menu>'
if [ $FREQ = 'powersave' ]; then
echo '<separator label="Powersave"/>'
else
echo '<item label=" Powersave">'
echo '<action name="Execute"><execute>sudo cpufreq-set -g powersave</execute></action>'
echo '</item>'
fi
if [ $FREQ = 'ondemand' ]; then
echo '<separator label="Ondemand"/>
else
echo '<item label="Ondemand">'
echo '<action name="Execute"><execute>sudo cpufreq-set -g ondemand</execute></action>'
echo '</item>'
fi
if [ $FREQ = 'performance' ]; then
echo '<separator label="Performance"/>'
else
echo '<item label="Performance">'
echo '<action name="Execute"><execute>sudo cpufreq-set -g performance</execute></action>'
echo '</item>'
fi
echo '</openbox_pipe_menu>'
Then I call it from the openbox menu.xml where it first is declared or what ever it's called:
<menu execute="~/.config/openbox/scripts/cpufreq-pipe.sh" id="system-cpu-menu" label="CPU Governor"/>
And then called:
<menu id="system-cpu-menu"/>
Hope that helps.

Setting a default content area for simple search

How to set up a default content area/all content areas for simple search when searching from a page?
The only way i can set a content area, is to go to advanced search and specify the content area or say all content areas
When i am searching from a content area, simple search searches the same content area.

Harish,
One simple way is create a navigation bar in the content area you are interested in searching, containing just the search element, and expose that navigation bar as a portlet.
Now you can add this portlet to any page and the search will search only on the content area it belongs to.

Start point for JDeveloper from Delphi

Hi Everybody,
I want change my software devlopment method from Delphi To Java. What is your suggestion for learning Java. Where is my start point.
Best wishes
Mehmet Av�ar

There are a couple of issues here:
1. Learning about java
2. Learning about your target platform (webbased, gui)
3. Learning to use JDeveloper to accomplish your goals
There may be more. Personally, I think you should address them individually and in this order. There are books available to get you going, although I don't have/know any one particularly. Just look around. Or try to find some tutorials/docs on the internet. Google is your friend.

Start point for EHS

Hi All,
I am new in EHS and I would have a look at it. Would you please share with me any start point (Link, document and so on) if you have? How and from where should I start?
I found just a book on Amazon but unfortunately it was out of stock
Thanks in advance,
Omid

Dear Omid
I have only shortly googled to get ideas about SAP HCM. I am sorry to say that I was not able to detect any overlap to SAP EHS solution; SAP EHS does have "only" some interface to SAP HR. So your starting position in EHS is "not very good". But that should not hinder you to consider SAP EHS as a potential interesting future option. If you drill down this FORUM you will find many similar examples. That means consultants from SAP FI and othere areas are interested as well in learning SAP EHS.
Only some short feedback regarding:
"EHS can affect MM or SD procedures"; this is a link in both directions. To use SAP EHS (for some purposes) you need to link SAP EHS and SAP MM; SAP SD is linked to SAP EHS mainly in the area of SDS/MSDS distribution and Dangerous goods handling; but other integration options do exist as well.Check may be:
Substance Volume Tracking using SAP EHS MANAGEMENT
Examples of Integration of SAP EHS Management into other SAP Solutions
The main integration points are quite good explained here::
Environment, Health and Safety (EHS) - SAP Library
and here:
Extension 5.0 for SAP EHS Management – SAP Help Portal Page
The topic of training / certification etc. is mentioned as well in document: "SAP EHS Management for Beginners".
E.g. SAP FI etc. links to EHS are discussed here: Error
or here: EHS : Waste Management ( Why PO is created)
As SAP EHS is a "big" module it is nearly impossible to give you additional guidelines. The main "hint" is: Component Extension solution is getting now a "hype"; therefore mans project seem to come up; SAP EHS classic is "old" to a certain extent; in most case there is only the need to prepare "small" changes and I assume most chemical companies using SAP do use SAP EHS since years and the REACH and GHS hype is "over" to a certain extent. Clearly on regular basis changes are needed; but no real "big projects"
So if you are interested in SAP EHS you should may be check "Component Extension" solution. Here the link to SAP HR is "very" closed (as we talk about Incident and risk handling for persons etc.
