DTW using .txt file adds quotation marks around BP Name

I am importing new Business Partners using .txt file because of comma's in BP names. When I import the BP names, quotation marks are added. How do I get rid of the quotation marks?

Gordon, thanks for the suggestion, it is helpful. However, in this case, there were no quotation marks in the Legacy System, and when I imported using .csv files, I had no problems.
When I switched to .txt, DTW added them somehow.
Thanks,
Avraham

(JPA) quotation marks around column names

Hello,
we use postgres in our project.
But the table and column names are not in lowercase, (the first character is upper).
Is there a way that the jpa puts quotation marks around the table and column names in the queries, because postgres converts them all to lowercase if there are no quotation marks.
And then we get the error that the relation does not exist.
thanks!
Dirk

You can quote database identifier by explicitly placing quotes around them. For example as follows
@Table(name="\"TableName\"")

"Save as csv" sets quotation marks around the whole line

Our client reports:
Data portal->Right click->Save as->Select "Data type": "Textfile - Auto detect (*.csv)"->Save.
Result of saving:
"TIME   V   V_ABS"
"63.0235776   0.105263157894737   28.6153372301571"
"63.0235936   0.105264137235745   28.6156034598028"
Therefore values of channels with same index (and a header) are compound to one cell due to quotation marks around.
By me it doesn't happen, but by a client.
Client has normal German Windows 7 region/language configuration.
Any idea, how a client can save as csv without quotation marks around the line?

Using a script it is possible to write CSV files Excel natively opens like given in this forum entry.
But be aware that you need different kind of files depening on your country.
In the Excel world CSV means "Character Separated Values".
e.g.:
US
dim targetFilePath : targetFilePath = "C:\temp\EXAMPLE.csv"
Call DataFileSave("<filename>" & replace(targetFilePath, "&", "&") & "</filename><decimalpoint>.</decimalpoint><delimiter>,</delimiter>", "CSV")
Germany
dim targetFilePath : targetFilePath = "C:\temp\EXAMPLE.csv"
Call DataFileSave("<filename>" & replace(targetFilePath, "&", "&") & "</filename><decimalpoint>,</decimalpoint><delimiter>;</delimiter>", "CSV")

How To Add the Double Quotation Marks Around a String

In the statement below, the recipientField.getEmailAddress() give me an e-mail address:
             theEmailAddressList.add( recipientField.getEmailAddress() );The e-mail address has to be wrapped within a pair of double quotation marks. Therefore, I have to do the concatenation. Do I wrap each double quotation mark with a pair of single quotation marks?
             theEmailAddressList.add( '"' + recipientField.getEmailAddress() + '"' );

I do not understand.
I am asking if the statement below does what I intend to do:
             theEmailAddressList.add( '"' + recipientField.getEmailAddress() + '"' );

How to use txt files in jar file

Hi all
I just made a program that uses a text file, but I havent managed to work it correctly, program runs without jar correctly, but when I packaged all files into a jar, it couldnt find txt file, so I can only run it when I create another text file outside of jar.
How can I solve this??

I used this:
Scanner fileScan = new Scanner (new file
("Words.txt"));
but when I make a jar file, it doesnt find the txt
file inside a jar,
do I need to specify path or something?I have already told you that you shouldn't use new File(..) you should use getResourceAsStream(String name) to get an InputStream to the file.

Removing quotation marks from channel names

Firstly - I am new to both DIAdem and VB so please forgive my ignorance!
I have a large data set containg many groups with (almost) identical channel names in each group. For reasons not worth going into some of the channel names have quoation marks around them, while others do not.
I am trying to remove the quoation marks to make all channel names consistent throughout the groups, for this I was hoping to loop through the groups renaming channels as appropriate
I think this should work:-
For
i = 1 to GROUPCOUNT
Call GROUPDEFAULTSET(i)
CN(""ChannelName"")="ChannelName"
Next
Where ChannelName is the name I am trying to replace, But I get the following error:- Expected ')'
Can anyone point out where I am going wrong?
(Note - I also tried using triple quotation marks ("""ChannelName"""), but I get this error instead - CN(""ChannelName""):=ChannelName Close bracket ")" expected for field index)
For bonus points - how to I get the loop to skip over any groups where the channel I am referencing already doesn't have quotation marks in it, rather than giving me an error that the channel can't be found?
Many thanks in advance for any assistance!
Dan

Hello Dan,
You are using an old script syntax to manipulate the data. Please find below the current way to replace quotation marks with an underscote:
dim iLoopG, iLoopC, oGroup, oGroupChns, sQM
sQM = chr(34) ' the " character
set oGroup = Data.Root.ChannelGroups
for iLoopG = 1 to oGroup.Count
set oGroupChns = oGroup(iLoopG).Channels
for iLoopC = 1 to oGroupChns.Count
'msgbox oGroupChns(iLoopC).Name
oGroupChns(iLoopC).Name = Replace(oGroupChns(iLoopC).Name, sQM, "_")
next

SSMS 2012:XQuery-doing "Retriving Job Candidates with the query Method" in AdventuresWorks 2012. Unclosed quotation mark after string '//*:Name.First?

Hi all,
From Page 354 of the the Book "Pro T-SQL 2008 Programmer's Guide" written by Michael Coles (published by apress), I copied the following code (Listing 12-9 Retrieving Job Candidates with the query Method):
--Coles12_9.sql // saved in C:/Documemnts/SQL Server Management Studio
-- Coles Listing 12-9 Retrieving Job Candidates with the query Method
-- Doing XQuery and the xml Data Type in AdvantureWorks
-- 17 March 2015 1105 AM
USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT Resume.query
N'//*:Name.First,
//*:Name.Middle,
//*:Name.Last,
//*:Edu.Level
FROM HumanResources.JobCandidate;
I executed this set of Listing 12-9 code in my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio and I got the following error messages:
Msg 105, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Unclosed quotation mark after the character string '//*:Name.First,
//*:Name.Middle,
//*:Name.Last,

Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near '//*:Name.First,
//*:Name.Middle,
//*:Name.Last,
//*:Edu.Level
FROM HumanResources.JobCandidate;
I am not able to figure out why I got the error messages. Please kindly help and advise me how to correct this set of sql codes.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Hi Scott,
I don't have that book at hand, but your problem is the "Unclosed quotationmark after the character string",as the error message shows. You have to enclose the 'XQUERY' string quotation in the
query().
SELECT jobcandidateid, Resume.query
N'//*:resume,
//*:Name.Middle,
//*:Name.Last,
//*:Edu.Level' --enclose the quotation here
FROM HumanResources.JobCandidate;
For XQUERY learning, here is a good
link.
If you have any question, feel free to let me know.

Write to file string sometimes with quotation marks

Hi Labview community,
I have a VI which creates a string array which I then wire to the "Write To Text File" VI.
One of the elements in the string array is a control input.
I have noticed that when the input is long, and I open the file in wordpad, then the string has quotation marks around it.
But when the control string is short, it appears in wordpad without quotation marks.
Additionally, a later element in the string array is also written with or without quotation marks depending on whether the control input string had quotation marks.
Can anyone explain this behaviour? How can I get more certainty in whether the strings are written with quotation marks or not?
It created a problem for me when another VI parsed the file looking for the line with the string but could not find it when the quotation marks were present.
Jamie
Using Labview version 8.0

Hi Jamie,
which LabView version do you use?
Could you attach an eample showing the problem? Normally 'Write to text file' just writes the string that is wired to it. It (normally) doesn't add quotation marks. The only option you can set is 'Convert EOL?' (input up to LV7.1, right-click in LV8+). The help window also didn't mention any quotation marks...
Best regards,

Quotation Marks in Description Meta Tag

I want to put quotation marks around a book title in a description meta tag. When I add them using the Description field in Properties, Dreamweaver substitutes " for the quotation mark. I know it is doing this because the content= is in quotes. Will the quotation marks show up okay using these html entities in all search engine results that display what is in my description meta tag?
Also, does it work okay to use html. like <em> </em> in head meta tags?

You're spitting into the wind with this. Descriptions in your meta tags are displayed by some but not all search engines. And the manner in which your meta descriptions appear on SERPs is totally out of your control. USE ALL CAPS for BOOK TITLES. Regular case for all the rest.

When downloading text, quotation marks, commas & apostrophes are rendered as gibberish. How can I cure this?

I use IBM Lotus Symphony as my default word processor. When I download materials as .txt, all apostrophes, quotation marks and hyphens are shown as gibberish> How do I get them to download and display normally?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Some time ago

I want to ask for more information. Do these files look ok in Firefox/Lotus/and another word processor? Where do you download them from and to?
If you have a problem with display of fonts in Firefox, you can try to change font setting in Tools menu, Options window, Content panel, fonts section.

Printing a quotation mark (") in concatenate formula?

Hi, I'm trying to write a function using =CONCATENATE() and I want to know how to add a quotation mark to the output without it screwing up the forumula.
This doesn't print out the quotation mark " between B2 and B3:
=CONCATENATE(B2,""",B3)
I've been able to do it by referencing another absolute cell with a quotation mark in it, but that's definitely the wonky way to do it.
I think what I'm looking for is an escape character. In Excel, it's four consecutive quotes that prints a single quotation mark """"
(I'm using the function to generate html, which uses a lot of quotation marks)
Any help appreciated, thanks!

you can use CHAR(34) to print the ascii character 34 (which is a double quote)

Grep and quotation marks

Hi, I have put together a grep style that will change any western characters in a Chinese document to a different font. I am having a problem with changing quotation marks around western characters without changing the ones around Chinese text as well. Is there any way to change only quotation marks that are around western characters?
Kate

Sure! It's perfectly possible to scan for anything but Chinese. What exactly do you have now? If you are using something like
".+"
you could change it to
"([\x{0003}-\x{2fff}]+"
(the main bulk of Chinese starts at Unicode u+3000). This will include the text "within". An alternative way, excluding anything but the quote marks themselves, is to use lookbehind and lookahead:
(?<![\x{2fff}-\x{faff}])[~{~}](?![\x{2fff}-\x{faff}])
This may look daunting, but it consist of three fairly easy parts:
(?<! [ \x{2fff}-\x{faff} ] ) Match behind for not anything in the Chinese range
[ ~{ ~} ] Match either opening or closing double quote (this doesn't seem to work with the " any dbl quote wildcard...)
(?! [ \x{2fff}-\x{faff} ] ) Match in front for not anything in the Chinese range again.

Slideshow Captions - How Can I Delete the Quotation Marks?

I am creating a slideshow in Lightroom 3 using the Caption and Rating preset. There are no quotation marks around the metadata captions, but when I preview the slideshow all my captions have quotation marks. I have searched Edit>Preferences in the Slideshow module, but there is no mention of captions or quotation marks. How can I get rid of the quotes?
Thanks for any help or suggestions!
(3 days later: 55 people have looked at this discussion, but no one has responded. I'm still hoping I can delete the quotation marks around my slideshow captions. Any ideas out there somewhere?)

9 views actually...
You will have to change the preset. Just click in the text box, then on the tool bar change Custom Settings, to Caption.
You can then save this as a new preset.

InDesign CS4 quotation marks problems in epub

I use InDesign CS4 to create epub files. Occassionally I will have what I guess you would call a translation error from the InDesign file to the epub file. Quotation marks and apostrophe marks do not translate at all. It doesn't happen with every file. If I combine the bad export file with another file the quotation marks will be just fine. I have even tried inserting a special character from the Type menu and it does the same thing.
Example:
How it shows in the InDesign file -
You’re a fool, Grey.
"Miss Steele. What a pleasant surprise."
How it shows up in the epub file:
You‚Äôre a fool, Grey.
‚ÄúMiss Steele. What a pleasant surprise.‚Äù
Does anyone have any suggestions to keep this from happening?

My suggestion is to upgrade to CS5.5. The epub capabilities are light years ahead of CS4.
That said, where are you seeing the problem? ADE? iPad? Kindle?
