Does 'SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT' kill your pc too?

Hi,
I am running SAP_CONVERT_TO_TEX_FORMAT pushing about 35,000 rows thru to pipe-delimit them.
Every time I run it, it gets about 26,000 rows thru and either locks up, abends, or throws my PC into a re-boot.
If I run with a few hundred rows it runs ok.
I have a pretty good pc...2G memory.  Have a few other apps open, but nothing very big.
Is this Function call a notorious hog?  I have tried freeing up a few other internal tables that I no longer need, and that helps a little, but nothing will get me over the hump to process all of the rows.  And 35,000 doesn't seem like a whole heck of a lot.
Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have any suggestions that I might try?
Thanks alot for you help!
Andy

  • Does charging your computer too long really kill the battery?

    Does charging your computer too long really kill the battery?  I have some friends who claim this happened to thair PCs, and my friend's iBook G4 has about ~3 minutes of battery life because of this.  Has Apple fixed this in later models or should I still only charge it until just as long as it takes for it to get filled up?

    Mac power management is now, and always has been, very smart. The Mac does not over-charge its battery.
    Batteries have a limited lifetime, and they eventually wear out whether they are charged daily or never charged at all. Your friend's G4 battery, if original, has lasted a very long time. It is not dying due to over-charging, it is dying due to old age.
    For longest battery life, follow the recommendations in the article shldr2thewheel cited above.

  • Your credit card does not match your bank's records

    your credit card does not match your bank's records. appears at purchase in itunes store.
    2 months with no solution on this. Nothing has changed with my bank at all. Yet apple was able to bill the same card for my mobile me acct. so the card does in fact work! I emailed and got what I already knew. see below, then my reply.
    Dear Eric,
    You can change your iTunes Store billing information at any time. When you update your credit card number or billing address through the iTunes Store, any equivalent information you might use with MobileMe, iPhoto, Aperture, or the Apple Store online is also updated.
    To update your billing address or credit card number, follow these steps:
    1) Make sure you're using the latest version of iTunes. It can be downloaded free of charge from the Apple website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download
    Eric, installing the latest version of iTunes will not affect your library or any items in your account that you haven't downloaded.
    2) Click this link: http://phobos.apple.com/accountSummary
    iTunes will automatically launch and the sign-in dialog will appear.
    3) If you are not already signed in, you will need to enter your iTunes Store account name and password and then click the Account Info button.
    4) On your Apple Account Information page, click Edit Payment Information
    Make the necessary changes. Your billing address should be exactly the same as the address on your credit card statement and with the United States Postal Service (click "Find a ZIP Code" at http://www.usps.com and follow the onscreen instructions). This is important, because even differences in punctuation, abbreviation, and capitalization can cause payment errors that might prevent you from using the iTunes Store.
    5) When all of the information is up to date, click Done.
    When you update your billing information, the iTunes Store places an authorization hold on your credit card to verify your account information. You might see this authorization request on your online statement. This is not an actual charge; it is simply a test to confirm that your credit card account is active and has credit available to accommodate transactions.
    Authorization requests are automatically removed from your account by your financial institution. The amount of time it takes to remove authorization requests varies by financial institution. If you have any questions about the way your financial institution handles authorization requests, please contact their customer-service department.
    Thank you for your time. If you have any other questions or concerns, regarding your iTunes Store account, Eric, please feel free to reply to this email. Have a great day.
    Sincerely,

    My reply
    I've read the support pages through and through and have gone through all of these steps in the past. Nothing on my end has changed. This card has been used for approx three years now, never to have been edited. As stated... In the midst of all of this difficulty, you were able to bill the same card for my mobile me subscription. Which should technically not gone through due to the supposed billing info not matching my bank's records! So quite simply, my card does work, this is something on your end, not my bank.
    And I did however change the type case to match my statement to no avail. This never made a difference in the past, but I tried it regardless.
    After attempting things for two months, I am growing tired of trying to spend my money on Apple. I will try one more suggestion if one is available. After that, I have had great success with the amazon store and may have to flip over to them. My time is way too valuable to be troubleshooting a problem I did not create.
    any specific help would be appreciated (please do not copy and paste tips from the support pages... been there)
    Eric

    As a follow up to my last post, I thought I would offer you my customer service experience as I am hoping you can avoiding going through what I've been through and that this will save you some time.
    I'm listing the discourse chronologically for your convenience:
    Specific request: My credit card or billing information is not accepted
    Details:
    iTunes says my credit card information does not match my bank information and will not let me make purchases. I have updated my account information and I still cannot make purchases. I get the same message that my card does not match my bank's information- which it does.
    Please help.
    TrackID: 1--------------
    Dear ----------,
    Welcome to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. My name is Snehashish.
    I am sorry to hear that you haven't been able to make purchases on the iTunes Store with your credit card. I know this is frustrating, and I will try to provide as much information as I can to help you resolve it.
    -----------, upon checking your account I find your credit card will be expired after this month. So you have to change it then. I suggest you to change it now or contact your credit card company as it is declined by iTunes.
    The iTunes Store has been unable to verify an authorization from your credit card company. There are several possible reasons for this:
    - Your credit card company's servers may have been busy. Trying again later may resolve the issue.
    - Your card may not have been activated yet. If so, you will need to activate it.
    - You may need to call your credit card company before the authorization is approved.
    - You may need to ensure that you correctly located the credit card's security code. To see instructions for locating the security code, choose View My Account from the iTunes Store menu, sign in to your account, click Edit Payment Information, and then click the "What is this?" link next to the Security Code field.
    - Your billing name or address does not match the address listed on your credit card statement. Any discrepancy in punctuation, abbreviation, or capitalization can cause errors, which might prevent you from purchasing from the iTunes Store. If you moved, or if your zip code changed recently, ask your credit card company to make sure its records are up to date and match exactly what you are entering as your billing information.
    --------, please follow these steps to confirm or update your account information:
    1) Go to the My Apple ID site at:
    http://appleid.apple.com/
    2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
    3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
    4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
    5) Click "Addresses" in the left column.
    6) Confirm or edit your information.
    7) Click "Phone Numbers" on the left. Make sure the area codes and phone numbers are entered correctly in their respective fields.
    8) Click Save Changes.
    Once your information is updated, try placing an order on the iTunes Store again. If the iTunes Store still cannot obtain an authorization for your card, it means that your billing information is still incorrect, either with your credit card company or with its verification system, which may be handled by another company.
    Fortunately, you may be able to make iTunes Store purchases with another payment method. For example, if PayPal accepts your credit card, you can use your PayPal account to buy from the iTunes Store. If you need more information about using PayPal on the iTunes Store, please let me know.
    ------, I hope this information is helpful. Thank you for your interest; I am pleased that you want to be an iTunes Store customer. Have a great day!
    Sincerely,
    Snehashish

    Hello again,
    I wanted to send a quick note to see if you are still experiencing any difficulties with the iTunes Store. Resolving your issue is important to me, so please don't hesitate to reply if you need any further assistance.
    Sincerely,
    Snehashish
    iTunes Store Customer Support
    Greetings Snehashish,
    When I wrote my original ticket it was to address the issue of the fact I had already updated my credit card information and I was still receiving the error message of "my credit card not matching my bank information" in iTunes. Giving me instructions on how to update my account information was not helpful because I had already taken that step. So, no, my problem remains unresolved and I am unable to make any purchases in iTunes or update my iPhone.
    Luckily, the item I was looking to purchase was available on Amazon digitally so I went ahead and bought it there without any problem whatsoever with my credit card- furthering the mystery and the enigma that is iTunes rejection of my credit card.
    Please send the next step to resolve my issue or please forward my ticket to someone who can resolve this for me.
    Thank you,
    Dear ------------,
    Welcome back to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. This is Snehashish again.
    I am glad to hear that your credit card works on another website. Some of our customer resolves this type of issue by removing credit card from their account, buy a free app and then re-add the credit card to account. I suggest you to try that.

    2) Select "View My Account" from the Store menu.
    3) Enter your password and click the View Account button.
    4) Click the Edit Payment Information button.
    5) Select "None" as the payment type.
    6) Click the Done button at the bottom of the page.
    After you select the "None" option, please attempt to download a free App from iTunes Store. Then sign out from your account and sign in back and re-add your credit card information.
    --------, then, please follow these steps to confirm or update your account's information:
    1) Go to the My Apple ID site at:
    http://appleid.apple.com/
    2) If the site is not displayed in your preferred language, click the Change Language link in the upper-right corner, type the name of your language in the field that appears, then click the Save button.
    3) Click the "Manage your account" link.
    4) Type your iTunes Store account name (which is your Apple ID) in the Apple ID field, type your password in the password field, then click the Sign In button.
    5) Click "Addresses" in the left column.
    6) Confirm or edit your information.
    7) Click "Phone Numbers" on the left. Make sure the area codes and phone numbers are entered correctly in their respective fields.
    8) Click Save Changes.
    Once your information is updated, try placing an order on the iTunes Store again.
    If you have further questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me again. Have a nice day, ----------!
    Hello again Snehashish,
    My address is confirmed and matches my bank account. I followed the steps as you directed with deleting my information downloading the free application and then re-entering my payment information. I continue get the error message that my credit card information does not match my bank's records. I have as of today called the bank and confirmed twice that my banking address is correct. The error is not happening on the banking side of the equation.
    Please send the next step to resolve my issue or please forward my ticket to someone who can resolve this for me.
    Thank you very much,
    Dear -------,
    Welcome back to Apple iTunes Store Customer Support. This is Snehashish again.
    Thank you for your response. Upon reviewing your account I find you removed that credit card successfully. I suggest you to update that information to start purchasing. You can also use gift card as well.
    --------, you can change your iTunes Store billing information at any time. When you update your credit card number or billing address through the iTunes Store, any equivalent information you might use with MobileMe, iPhoto, Aperture, or the Apple Store online is also updated.

    Despite already having the current version of iTunes, I re-downloaded the program and installed it on my computer. I logged into the link you sent me. I entered in my banking (again and without mistake) information exactly as it is on my billing information. I have now entered my credit card information correctly on iTunes repeatedly- it has not deviated nor changed and there has never been a mistake in my data entry. I have used this credit card at other locations and online stores without error and my banking and credit card information is correct.
    I entered a credit card I DO NOT want to use in conjunction with my iTunes account and it was accepted without incident or error message. The problem is that the card I do want to use, that I NEED to use to make purchases on iTunes is not accepted. Both cards are issued through the same bank- one is debit and one is credit and they both link to the same bank account with the same home address. The debit card is being rejected and the credit card is accepted. My problem is not my address nor the account number as both have been entered correctly multiple times. iTunes is rejecting my particular card even though it is working and matches my bank information. This is the card I have always used to make purchases on iTunes and this error started when my old card expired and I attempted to update my account.
    Every time I re-enter my credit card and try to make a purchase and I always get the following message:
    "There are errors or omissions in the information. Please correct the indicated items: Your credit card does not match your bank's records. Please enter a US credit card and a matching billing address."
    I have reset, re-downloaded, and re-entered everything on my end multiple times resulting in the same error from iTunes. I want to know what is happening with my account. If you do not have a solution then please escalate this ticket and please put me in contact with someone who can help me.
    Thank you for your time,
    I found my solution in the Apple Support Community. It had nothing to do with my information being incorrect. I do not require your assistance any longer.
    My issue resolution was actual very simple and came from this page. iTunes has a bug where it will not accept your information but if you add your credit card under you account in the Apple Store and CONFIRM then it will appear in your iTunes account automatically. I could have saved hours of email, calls to the bank and stupid angst if I had looked this up instead of TRYING to use Apple Customer Support. I've learned my lesson. I just want you to know that iTunes is bugged and broken in this respect and no matter how many times you enter your information IT DOESN'T WORK. I hope this helps someone else.
    Apple please tell your customer support people how to actually help instead of having them paste in worthless form letters on how to use a credit card with iTunes. Obviously it iTunes that is broken.
    PLEASE FIX.

    This has been discussed on the forums - for reasons of backward compatibility I do not think BEx supports more that 65000 rows .... I am still not sure about the same since I have not tried out a query with more that 65K rows on excel 2007 but I think this is not possible...

    According to your post, my understanding is that SharePoint 2010 (SP2010 SP1+ AU CU 2011) site built with Project Web Access template shows warning "Your Local Machine Time Zone does not match your current Sharepoint Regional Settings".
    Users are getting this message even after correctly specifying and changing the timezone in their Sharepoint Settings. This is a common problem across the net, but we've found a workaround

  • How can I have a video of my personal song That I've written in iTunes Have 3200 views in 4 hours, ? Does iTunes upload your iTunes library ?

    How can I have a video of my personal song That I've written in iTunes Have 3200 views in 4 hours, ? Does iTunes upload your iTunes library ?

    You can't write videos with iTunes.  You can't even write anything with iTunes.  iTunes plays media, not create it.
    iTunes only uploads your library if you have subscribed to iTunes Match and then it is only viewable by yourself.  It doesn't include video.
    iTunes is an application that runs on your computer.  It is not the iTunes Store which is something run on Apple's corporate computer's.
    I think there's terminology problems here so perhaps simplify it a bit.  Are you talking about something you have on the iTunes Store server?  I know nothing about that but I guess it is possible people (or more likely automated computer programs automatically scanning the web) have had a look and that gets flagged as a view.

  • Kerning Caution! It can kill your Motion file.

    Kern carefully. There is a bug that can render your motion file un-openable!
    I will describe it in detail here to see if anyone else can reproduce it. I was able to reproduce it consistently, even with a new file.
    I wanted to adjust the beginning of a text line to closely line up to another text member. There are many ways to do this. In this instance I chose to kern the space before the first character of the text line in order to shift the entire line.
    Don't do this! It will kill your motion file.
    When I tried to render a movie  (Share/Export Movie...) after making this adjustment, here is the error message.
    I saved the file, hoping that restarting Motion would fix the problem. But the project file will not open.
    Luckily I had a backup of the file. I did a bit of trouble shooting after this and found that this type of kerning would consistently kill the project file. This is a very nasty bug. There may be more like this so proceed with caution when kerning.

    Hope you have reported this to Apple Tracy via the Motion Help menu to http://www.apple.com/feedback/motion.html
    I will stay away from kerning for now, thanks for the heads up!
