Editing a file online

Hi, I'm looking for a way to edit a file that is hosted online to keep information. I want to avoid using MySQL and I want to know if this is possible and what API would I be looking at?

Hah hah. Well, I guess I'm going to end up using MySQL database because I don't think there is a better approach. Why the sudden flip-flop? Nobody here has suggested that you use MySQL or that it's an appropriate approach. They couldn't have because you didn't provide any information as to your requirements and goals. All they did was ask why you were opposed to it, in order to try to drag some information out of you.
Also note that using a DB or not, and which DB you use, has nothing at all to do with "editing a file online." You may end up using MySQL or some other DB to store your file, and to find the file(s) you're looking for based on certain criteria, but the "editing" part and the "online" part are completely separate from and independent of that.

How to edit Excel files online

HI, is it possible to edit Excel files online, which where uploaded to webserver. I mean, opening an ecxel sheet changing different fields, and saving the changes without opening the .xls with my local office?
If yes, how?

you could try it with http://jakarta.apache.org/poi
That is a package that allows reading and writing of excel files, it wont be easy as you have to parse the excell file into HTMl that is editable.

The Moyea FLV Plugin to force Premiere Elements to import flv files is a popular question from time to time.
I know from personal experience that it does work for Premiere Elements 4, 7, and 8.0/8.0.1.
I have just downloaded the Moyea FLV Plugin from the site whose link I had previously posted in your thread in order to verify that it still works with 8.0/8.0.1 and flv importing. It still does. This was verified with a flv file, the Moyea FLV plugin, and Premiere Elements 4, 7, and 8.0/8.0.1.
Some tips, if necessary,
Once the plugin is installed, I found no desktop icon for it.
What happened is this...You open your Premiere Elements 8.0/8.0.1 project, you import your flv file with Get Media/Files and Folders.
At that point, you get a Moyea Software pop up with Order or Try. I hit Try.
At that point, the flv is imported, but look for it in "Project" when the Organize (blue) header is the selected. It did not pop up in the Organize/Media sector.
I have yet to remember or try versions later than 8.0/8.0.1 with this plugin. My recollection is that the plugin does not work with these later versions of Premiere Elements.
More later if necessary.

Why does Firefox DRAG when editing files online?

2nd request for help.. :)
Why does firefox 9 drag when either editing files online, or entering code into a description box. The more FF thinks there are spelling errors, the worse the dragging becomes. Sometimes it is so bad the mouse cursor is stuck to the screen.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.

When I edit files on my desktop, do they automatically update in my Creative Cloud files online?

I do not have Creative Cloud for my desktop (I use OS 10.6.8, do not plan on upgrading anytime soon...) I work on my files on my desktop and save them there, but also like to have a back up in my cloud membership that I log in to online. When I make changes and save my files on my desktop, do I have to re-upload them to the cloud files online? Or do they sync automatically?

If you do have the Creative Cloud app in the future then yes you can sync new files, and sync updates to existing files that are in the Creative Cloud Files folder.

How to distribute on browser a PDF form but editing it only online?

Could you propose a technical solution to implement all this?
Thank in advance!

Putting Adobe Forms (Response Files) Online

I have created an online application form. Though the location of my form resides on my computer (I also uploaded the form to a website). The response file is located on my home computer.
When people fill out the form and click submit, it only works if my computer is attached to the Internet which has frequent downtime, so I want to place the response file (I think that is what I have to do) on a website I have hosted that is always up 100% of the time.
Though I can edit the file location of the response file, it does not allow me to put in website information.
1. Is all I need to do is place the response file on my Internet Web Site to ensure that it will work 100% of the time and users won't get a message?
2. How do I do that?

My question doesn't quite fit under this category - but I cannot seem to submit a new questions. So here it goes....
I am creating three different forms for an upcoming international conference. I would like to include a submit button on the form. I would like this to result in the PDF file being sent to an online storage file (not Acrobat's site) such as Google sites.
When I edit the properties of the button there is a field labeled "Enter a URL for this link" and I am assuming that this is where I could set this up, but I've not been able to figure out how.
Alternatively, what is that field labeled "Enter a URL for this link" for anyhow?

Can I import an MP4 or FLV to Flash and make it an editable .fla file?

Can I import an MP4 or FLV to Flash and make it an editable .fla file?

Thanks for helping me.
It's a vector animation that was made in flash and exported into a swf I believe and then posted on a website and on youtube. I have the mp4 ad the flv that I have converted from the online file using an online tool. I would like to use it as a base for my own video and just switch out some of the frames and characters/backgrounds - is that possible in Premier?

Cannot edit sudoers file in single user mode.

I did not back up my sudoers file on my pro.
I made a change to it, adding my "test" user to be able to use sudo, but upon restarting, it didn't work, and I cannot edit the file via cd in single user mode.
I mounted the drive, changed permissions, but it seems that I don't have the option to use vi, visudo, vim.
Thanks for the help.

I mounted the hdd using the command below.
I then made sure I could get to the file by cd to it.
Then once I was there, i would attempt to type vis <tab> to complete, and visudo does not show up. Typed in visudo, nothing. This was on a brand new mb pro. I can wipe it out, but I would rather figure out why its not working.
The reason for all this is I have to give it to a user at my job. We don't want them to have admin rights to install anything they want, but they need to use sudo in X11 for compiling and such. I read online that I can edit/add their username to the sudoers file, and allow them the right to sudo for compiling, starting apache on their laptops, etc.
Thanks.

Extractors for Archive files & online data

Hi experts,
I have requirements to develop extractors to extract both ADK files and online data for MM and PS. Online PS data were extracted previously through generic extractors with FM (F2) and MM with generic extrator with View
I identified the table MSEG, MKPF for MM and MSEG for PS were the data need to be pull from. The ADK files reside in a file system and are accessible through PBS index.
1- Could you pl guide me through a strategy how to proceed?
2- Is possible to develop a generic datasource with function module that with be able to fetch ADK files & online data for PS
3- For MM, I am thinking at 2LIS_03_BF since I am extracting MM: Material movements
Since that extractor is delta capable but I am looking for full upload, could you pl provide steps how to work around that if possible?
Thanks.

Thanks for replying,
I have already reviewed that document, it is not helpful in my case since I can retrieve archive data using PBS index. I think that I have to develop a FM extractor capable to fetch online and archive data for appl. comp. PS.
Several fileds need to be accessed on tables MSEG, AFKO, AFVC, EBAN, ESLL, ESLH, t430...
I already have a FM module capable to fetch online data... I need to modify it so that it would fetch online and archive data...
I am looking here for the logic ... could you please experts paste a template code capable to fullfill that requirement or sent it under (blaise.pascal(at)ymail.com) I will really appreciate.

Are you able to edit these files (link to HDR-CX560V files)? Please try and post.

Before I buy FCPX, I'd like to know if my camcorder 1080 / 60p files work. Someone suggested I put them online via dropbox and post the link. I would appreciate your help.
In the archive, there are two things... #1 the complete backup of the media structure from the camcorder and #2 the file converted to a 60p mp4 via premiere elements via a tweak (to enable 60p editing).
Can you edit the file without something like clipwrap? Would you mind posting the file?
What about clipwrap?
Here's the link:

Thanks!

Hi bsan821,
Are you trying to fill in the forms, or actually edit the PDF? If you need to edit the PDF, you would need to download it and open it Acrobat (Reader doesn't allow you to edit PDFs).
If you're just trying to fill in a PDF form, that's a different story. You should be able to do that in a browser. Please see Acrobat Help | Filling in PDF forms. What web browser are you using, and what happens when you try to fill in the forms?
Best,
Sara

How to open and edit "*.txt" file with "Notepad"

Hello guys!
I'm facing problem with SharePoint 2010 Enterprise and got no clue how to solve it.
What I want to do is to open "*.txt" (which is placed to "Documents Library") in "Notepad", so I could edit it and save (publish) directly to SharePoint from "Notepad".
If I upload any Microsoft office File, such as "*.docx", "*.xls", etc - it works as it should - document opens in appropriate application and everybody is happy.
But, when I create documents library, put some "*.txt" file there and click on it - it opens in new browser's tab as text, so I cannot edit the file.
What I tried to do is to activate feature "Open Documents in Client Applications by Default" - not happy.
Edit "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\XML\DOCICON.XML" - I've modified "txt" entry as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<DocIcons>
    <ByProgID>
    </ByProgID>
    <ByExtension>
<Mapping Key="txt" Value="ictxt.gif" EditText="Notepad" OpenControl="SharePoint.OpenDocuments"/>
    </ByExtension>
    <Default>
        <Mapping Value="icgen.gif"/>
    </Default>
</DocIcons>
Still not happy.
So, how do I make this stuff work?

Found this link which has more information on this scenario:
http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/1427/open-txt-file-in-notepad-from-sharepoint
A programmatic workaround:
