Edit one text and update others...

Software involved: Adobe InDesign CS5 and Microsoft Word 2010
I have a word document that I'm converting to an InDesign document. It is a contract paper that's 13 pages long. There is a place at the top to put the person's name. It's a template file, and replacing "Person Name" in the top location updates the 30+ other instances of "Person Name" in the document.
Is there a way to do the same thing InDesign?

Look into text variables. I think that should do the trick for you.

How to change/update one page and all others at once?

I'm quite new to Dreamweaver. I am trying to add some things to my sidebar and I would like it to appear on all of my other pages. I used a template for the index(homepage) then I just saved the page so I could create other pages for it to have the same logo and such on those pages. So how do I go about editing one page and all others at once?

If you used DW Templates to create your child pages, open your .dwt file.
Make changes to the sidebar.
Save and populate changes to child pages.
Unfortunately, making changes to child pages will not populate to other child pages. Only the master template.dwt in DW can populate changes across to child pages.

I believe it is version 11 of iphoto as i tried to update but it says it has the latest update and Mac is 2 weeks old from new.
OS is Lion.
I have just tried to look everywhere on the Mac to see where the photos might be.
There are no error messages showing on screen and it was fine before my wife did what she did. Even though we have back -ups of 95% of the pictures. I would like to know what happened so that it won't happen again.

Insert one table and update another???

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to insert a record in one table and update another another record in a different table.
I have a form on my company's intranet that allows employees to add comments (ADDT Insert transaction) about new products we are going to bring to the market. At the same time, I would like to count the numbers of comments on a particular product and update that number for each product to see which product is getting the most reviews.
Right now the products are on the homepage with the title and inserted date. From there, the employees click on the product get the info and make comments about it. The problem for me is that I would like to see the comment counts for each product on the home page, which means I would have to update the product table with the count.
Sorry, I am using PHP as the technology.
When I used to do it in ASP, I would insert the comment using the POST from the form, but add another hidden field with the count in it and I would use the "Command" Server behavior to retrieve the number and update the other table field.
I noticed that dreamweaver removed the "Command" server behavior when using PHP.
All help is greatly appreciated
Charles.

Hi Charles,
you can generally execute queries on a different table using Custom Triggers, and in regards to your "update the product table with the count" scenario the ADDT help file has a helpful pointer in the chapter "Custom transactions and triggers : Save additional information on login" -- in here you´ll find a sample "incremental counter" query which should be easy to adapt.

What version of Pages are you referring to?
Basically if you are talking about the Table of Contents in Pages and want to have different character styles within paragraphs in the T.O.C. you will have to export the T.O.C. and bring it back in as text and change that.

Try a reboot press & hold power button & menu until Apple Logo comes on then wait
you will not lose any data.
That may fix your problem.

How can I align two different text row in the same table in two different way (one centered and the other one on the left)?

Hi,
I want to center two different text row that are in the same table but one on the center and the other one on the left. I put a <span> tag hoping that it has been overwhelmed the table's class properties The .bottomsel's font-family and the .Cig84's font-family and colour work but the text-align don't: they're both on the left.
These are my source and CSS codes:
Source:
<table width="600" border="0">
<tr>
    <td class="bottomref"><p><span class="bottomsel">| <a href="index.html" target="_self">Main</a> | <a href="about.html" target="_self">About</a> | <a href="clients.html" target="_self">Clients</a> | <a href="contact.html" target="_self">Contact</a> |</span><br />
      <span class="credits">Credits: <span class="Cig84">Cig84</span></span></p></td>
</tr>
</table>
CSS:
.bottomsel {
text-align: center;
font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
.credits {
text-align: left;
.Cig84 {
color: #F00;
font-family: "Comic Sans MS", cursive;

Use paragraph tags with CSS classes.
CSS:
     .center {text-align:center}
     .left {text-align:left}
HTML:
<table width="600" border="0">
<tr>
    <td class="bottomref">
          <p class="center">This text is center aligned</p>
          <p class="left">This text is left aligned</p>
    </td>
</tr>

Installing some components from CS4 Design Premium on one computer and the others on a different computer?

Hi All,
I have bought a copy of Design Premium Student Edition.
I have installed one copy of it on my parents computer at home.
I was going to also install all the programmes on my laptop as well but I already have Illustrator CS3 and Photoshop CS3 on it. Would I be allowed to install all the programmes other than illustrator and photoshop onto my laptop and then install the Illustrator and Photoshop CS4 applications onto another computer?
If so how do I go about doing it?
Many thanks for your help.
Best,
Tom

That would be a violation and the way I understand it, the student edition only allows for one activation.

Check two columns and update other table

HI ,
I have a table called trackCenterline .Below is the table.
What i want to do is If the segmentSequenceID is 1 it should pick the corresponding SegmentID i.e 10001 and Check for the same segment id in other table called TrackSegment which is below. and pick the BeginMilepost of that segmentID and Update That
Milepost in a new table .At end SegmentSequenceID number it should pick ENDMilepost and update
TrackCenterline table.
TrackSegment table
In the below table for 10001 SegmentID it should pick BeginMilepost. For end Number of SegmentSequenceID in above table ID ends at 121 for that end sequenceID It should refer TrackSegment table below and pick EndMilepost and should be updated in another
table Milepost column.
after that a new segment starts with new sequence .and so on ...

Hi Deepa_Deepu,
According to your description, since the issue regards T-SQL. I will help you move the question in the T-SQL forums at
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=transactsql. It is appropriate and more experts will assist you.
When you want to check two columns from two tables then return some results and update the third table. I recommend you use join function and combine two tables, then use update select from statement for modifying the Mailpost table. You can refer to the
following T-SQL Statement.
-----using join to connect to two tables
select TrackCenterline.FeatureId,TrackCenterline.SegmentId,
TrackCenterline.SegmentSequenceId,TrackSegment.BeginMilepost,TrackSegment.EndMilepost
from dbo.TrackCenterline join dbo.TrackSegment
on TrackCenterline.SegmentId=TrackSegment.SegmentId
order by TrackCenterline.SegmentId, TrackCenterline.SegmentSequenceId
---the result shows as following.
FeatureId SegmentId SegmentSequenceId BeginMilepost EndMilepost
AMK100011 10001 1 61.0000 61.3740
AMK100012 10001 2 61.0000 61.3740
AMK100013 10001 3 61.0000 61.3740
AMK1000121 10001 121 61.0000 61.3740
AMK100021 10002 1 61.1260 61.7240
AMK100023 10002 3 61.1260 61.7240
AMK100033 10003 3 61.3740 62.9530
-----Then you can use update select from statement to modify the Mailpost table, Or you can post the table structure of Mailpost
And for more information, you can review the following article about update statement.

My iPad will not allow both my pic & music folders to load. When syncing one loads and the other is deleted and vice versa. All softwaew is updated and I would have about a 2Gig reserve on my 14Gig machine with both folders transfered. How do I fix this?

I have updated all software on my iPad and iTunes in my PC. Now when syncing my pics and music folders one or the other folder is always dropped. I should have an unused capacity of 2Gig after transfer on my 14Gig capacity machine. How do I get the ipad to retain both folders like it did before the software updates?

Try the following:
Open iTunes on your computer, go to Edit>Preferences>Devices, click on your most recent iPad backup in the Backups list and click Delete Backup.
Further down on the Devices screen, click Reset Sync History.
Connect your iPad and try syncing again.

How to display contents of one table and update another one

Hi all
My requirement is the following:
- Three tables, guard, site and guard_site where guard_site shows which guards are linked to a particular site and vice-versa
- I need to create one front-end where i allow all guards to be linked with a particular site
- so the panel must show all guards available (so get display data from guard table) and then i need to introduce a row selector, which allows user to select whichever guards he/she wants
- There will be a save button and upon pressing it, i will create an entry on the guards_site table for the selected guards against the siteId provided when user goes to this page.
- Also upon loading this page if there are already any linked guards these must show as ticked in the row selector.
so I first attempted using a Tabular form or a form on a table/view, but it then forces me to select a table to update, which is not what i want, the data i display is from guard table, which is not the table i want to update... so I then tried a blank page and I created a SQL Query report region... but it doesn't allow me to add a row selector (even if I have added a button on the region).
Any ideas?
Regards and thanks
Jose

Maybe I am not understanding what you are trying to do but it appears that the table guard_site is the table you should be updating. Doesn't the guard_site table contain foreign keys from both the guard and site tables?

Two user accounts, one itunes, and updating apps

This may be just a rant, but perhaps somebody has some ideas for how to fix this.
My wife and I both have iTunes accounts, and we have material, including apps, from both accounts on our main home computer.
Frequently, the Apps icon shows that there are 'updates' for the various Apps. Like a fool, I click on the button and see what updates there are. So far, so good.
When I try to download updates, though, I have all sorts of issues. The most common is that it says something like 'sorry, bozo, these updates are for the other account, not the one your logged into right now. log into the other account and come back.'
That's the kind of thing that is just a plain stupid pain. Why in the **** can't it just keep the account information available and just download the blasted updates? I don't want to have to log into other accounts. I don't have to when I download updates on my iPhone (which also has some apps from both accounts) – why do I have to do it in iTunes?
Bleep, bleep, BLEEEEP!
It does a bunch of other things that are equally (or more) stupid, too. Sometimes, it gives me a message that I "can't update this software since I have not owned the major version of it". I'm guessing that this is related to the account thing, too.
iTunes people: For the love of Pete, please, please, make the multiple accounts on one iTunes feature more user(s) friendly.
Everybody else: please tell me if there is some sort of secret trick for making all these problems go away.

I still think this is stupid. Maybe I'm one of a small minority that has more than one iTunes account active in a single iTunes library? Or is this a common situation?
